When the police automobile collided
with a big motor car owned by D. j.
Sutton Yesterday afternoon at First
and Broadway everyone remained at
their posts but one prisoner, who was
being taken to the police station.
Aroused from slumber by the crash,
the man who was drunk gave a ter
rified scream and sprang into the street
with Officer Hurt hanging to him. The
prisoner was finally hustled into the
vehicle. which began to back and yaW
and misbehave generally. The prisoner
needed medical attention for his nerves
after the accident. The chauffeur Of
the Sutton machine went on to the
police station but the big police van,
the pride of the force, was acting in
the strangest manner possible.
1t was like ship at sea that has
lost her rudder. Everyone gave the er-
ratio vehicle a wide berth, but finally
the chauffeur Officer Abbott, man.
aged to bring it into port without any
further mishap. The steering gear was
nut out of commission and one of the
steel axles bent. To the Sutton ma

The collision resulted through the
blunder of a truck driver who forced
his way into the crush on First street.
Sutton's car struck the police electric
van before the chauffeur could stop his
machine.

After the short season of exceeding
ly warm weather which made glad the
heart of the farmer of the region, rain
came yesterday, which made still glad
der the heart of the aforementioned
agriculturist.
Strawberries in almost every section
OF Los Angeles county have been
greatly helped by the sunshine of the
past few days, making the surface of
berry patches look as If they were
rouged. But while the warmth was
grateful indeed to the rancher, it dried
out the ground and made irrigation
necessary in some sections. The 20 of
an inch of rain will remove the neces-
sity for immediate irrigation, at least.
and the succession of rains promised
by the weather bureau will help q
great deal towards making record
breaking crops.
Precipitation Falls of
Although the precipitation has been
1.01 inches less than last season, the
benefit done by the rains this year has
been much greater, for the reason that
the rain has been distributed over the
whole season. Last season the rains
We're exceedingly heavy, amounting al
most to cloudbursts.
No reports have been received by
Lne weather department IroHl odl
Francisco since the day of the earth
Quake. The forecasts for Southern
California are now made in Portland.
More rain is promised for today, and
if the gentle showers continue it is
likely that the record of last years
precipitation will be surpassed this
season.
The statement of the weather man in
regard to the conditions obtaining is
as follows; A deep barometric depres-
sion was central in Kansas yesterday
morning and local rains are reported
from Kansas to the lower Mississippi
valley. Thunderstorms occurred at
Little Rock, Ark, last evening and also
at Cairo, Ills. Light rain has fallen
also in Nebraska. western Colorado
and northern Utah. Snow was falling
at the observation hour in Denver.
Cool weather prevails in the upper Mis-
souri, valley and in southern Utah. A
killing frost occurred at Modena yes
terday morning.
No reports have been received from
stations north of the Tehachapi.
Cloudy weather is indicated for this
vicinity today and possibly showers
will occur tonight.

FOOTBALL DURING 1906 LESS
DANGEROUS THAN 1905
Not One Fatality in the Big College
-"Debrutalized' Sport Ac-
coTplishes Its Object

Eleven dead and one hundred and
four severly injured IS the record
IN this country for the football season
OF 1906, according to the resume Of
seasons accidents in the Tribune to-
day.
These figures are compared with
fhe season of 1908. when eighteen
players were killed and one hundred
and forty-nsae severely injured, and,
according TO the Tribune, shows that
"debrutalized' football has occen1-
plished in a large degree the object
aimed at in rendering the game less
dangerous to life and limb. The de-
crease in casualties is especially
marked among the school players In
the season of 1908 eleven high school
players were killed and forty-seven
injured. In the season just closed
seven were killed and twenty-five
were badly hurt
All the college and high school
games this year were played under
the new rules drawn up after the close
OF the last season. The value of the
new rules is shown in the record oi
the big college games. This year moi
one fatality has occurred in the games

When Townsend saw the dog, he
asked the owner to get him out OF
the way as he wanted to pass by.
(There is only one walk on the
street) The owner of the dog re-
piled that he wouldn't and that it
would take a good man to make him
do it or words to that effect. Bricks
were "flung" and Noah received one
on the top OF his head making 3-inch
hole in his skull from which he died.
The murderer has not as yet been
caught
