BLASTERS DAMAGE
COLEGROVE HOME
STUMP BLOWN THROUGH SIDE
OF HOUSE
County Chain Gang Bosses DO Some
Weird Stunts With Dynamite
and Strike Terror to Hearts
of Citizens

Colegrove people are again in a state
of terror over the action of the men in
charge of the county chain gang.
The blasting of stumps at the scene
of devastation along Santa Monica ave-
nue. continues and flying pieces of tim
ber makes life uncertain in that vi
clnity.
The cannonading strikes fear to the
hearts of the women and is the cause
of much profanity among the commut-
ers when they return at night to view
the wreck of their homes.
Yesterday afternoon an extra heavy
charge of dynamite threw a portion of
eucalyptus stump weighing fifty
pounds through the side of the home of
Frank Dodge at Santa Monica avenue
and Ell Centre street. Fortunately none
of Mr.. Dodge's family was at home at
the time of the bombardment.
The piece of timber crushed in the
side of the house and threw a quantity
of plaster about the rooms on the in
side.
The people living on Santa Monica
avenue are aroused by what they call
the reckless actions of the men in
charge of the chain gang. So
First they threw the trees across
our fences and into the tops of our
ornamental trees, now they threaten
our lives and homes by their weird
method of blasting" said a Colegrove
man last night.

MEMBERS DEMAND ROLL CALLS

WASHINGTON, May 19.-Demo-
cratic members Of the house were to-
day signing an endorsement of the ac-
ton of Minority Leader Williams in
filibusterlng in the house for the pur-
pose of hurrying action on the state
hood bill.
The Endorsement was drawn by Rep
resentative Henry of Texas and was
circulated by Representative Beall OF
that state. It asks Mr.. Williams to
continue to demand roll calls on every
motion which may be made in the pas
sage of bills or the adoption of resolu-
tons and to make the point of no quo
rum whenever possible.
The dilatory tactics practced this
week have delayed business to a con-
siderable extent, and with the request
to increase the vigilance, that advan-
tage may be taken Of every opportunity
for delay.

POPE Plus X GAINS SLOWLY
Condition Not Grave, but Some Appre-
henslon Is Felt over Free
quent Attacks
BY Associated Press.

ROME, May 19.-Although the condi-
ton of the pope Is not grave. some ap-
prehension is felt at the frequency Of
the attacks through exposure to cold,
disordered digestion and fatigue.
The present attack seems to have had
its origin through the pope walking to
ST. Peters last Sunday for the beatin-
cation of Julie Billiart. Returning to
his apartments from st. Peters, his
highness was quite warm, and in pass
ing through the thickly walled Vatican
court yards, where the atmosphere is
damp, he refused to put on his cloak.
When the first symptoms of the
trouble appeared he refused to rest and
take proper care of himself, and insist
ed on giving long and fatiguing audi
ences to all the dignitaries of the Do
minican order.
The gout, which previously had only
attacked his foot has now reached the
pope's left knee, which is considerably
swollen and gives him acute pain. Con-
siderable Inflammation is present. The
temperature of his holiness today was
80. DIR. Lapponi visited his patient
again this evening.

Los Angeles herald., 1906-05-20

this morning it shifted and the flames
began to lose their fury, but the fires
are not out. They still smolder, and
although they are not spreading, 1t
will only need fresh wind to start
them again in all their fury.
Talbot fought hard to ward off the
flames, but 1t failed. A score of houses
and an entire logging train were
burned. Daggett had sent fire en-
gine to Talbot, but even this was
burned up. Daggett managed to save
itself because of the shifting wind.
Quinnesec is still isolated from this end
and cannot be reached. The entire

BESTOWS BLESSING
UPON S0UTHST0NES

The nuptial sky of Mark Southstone
and his girl wife, who was Inez Tray
Ter, is clear again. The blessings of the
uncle and aunt of the hfteen-year-old
miss have been given.
Friday night Mark Southstone was
missing, and his fifteen-yearold wife
was mourning his absence at her
uncle's farm hous in Hynes, and her
irate uncle, Fred Morcom, threatened
to prosecute Southstone for perjury
and abduction. Yesterday uncle and
aunt gave the young couple their
blessing, so 1t is said by the people
of F1ynes, and the young people have
now commenced their married life in
Los Angeles.
Last Thursday the young couple were
secretly married tSanta Ana by Rev.
r.. r.. Raymond and that same night
the young bride was taken by her uncle
to his home in Hynes from Los Ange-
les.
Friday Mr.. Norcom was inclined to
prosecute the young man and put the
case in the hands of the police. Upon
investigating the matter in Santa Ana
an offense in the eyes of the law was
his niece, who swore that she was IS
years of age, so it is said.
Not wishing to prosecute his niece,
it is said that he relented and allowed
Southstone to see his wife and they
left for Los Angeles yesterday after
noon.
Mr.. Norcom took the matter to the
district attorney Of Los Angeles county
and was advised by him that the one
which could be prosecuted by him was
the niece who swore that she was IS
years old when she and Southstone Sc
cured their license in Santa Ana, and
1t was on the advice of Attorney Fred
icks that Norcrom decided to drop the
matter.
