SHAKEUP PRECEDES
KERN'S DEPARTURE
PATROLMEN DROPPED OR CIV
EN- VACATION
Mayor Harper Wants Ten Men Added
to the Force Each Month, but
City's Finances Bar the
Increase

With the departure of Chief of Police
Edward Kern for jamestown Thursday
night the department will be temporari-
ly in command of Chief of Detectives
Paul Flammer, who, as well as Capt
Auble, have served as heads of the de-
partment several times on previous oc-
casions and are familiar with the ad-
ministrative work.
The city council voted $475 for ex-
penses for the chief, who has also de-
cided to take Secretary L. Pendegast
with him. Mrs. Kern will also go.
Chief Kern's primary purpose is to
attend the international convention OF
the chiefs, which are becoming more
and more valuable to the municipalities
because of the valuable pointers which
are CLEANED there, as we'll as economies,
such as cipher kilograms, exchange OF
identiflcations and photos and other
features which bring about a consider
able saving Of money to cities whose
chiefs are enrolled in membership in
the association.
Before going Chief Kern had the po-
lice board clear up a number of pend
ing questions, though as yet the city
council has done nothing toward a new
jail and police headquarters.
Three patrolmen were dropped from
the rolls during their probationary per-
iods on the report of Capt. Broadhead,
viz: A. M. King, Winfield S. Wolfe and
j. T. Green.
E. J. Kincaid's resignation as patrol
man was accepted.
Leaves of absence were granted to F
M. Dyke and George T. Williamson.
Charles c.. Grimm was given an ap-
pointment.
George K. Home was regularly de-
tailed as & detective.
Mayor Harper is exceedingly anxious
that ten men month be added to the
force from now on, as residents of his
ward and of the First ward particu-
larly complain that policemen are SO
scarce that weeks go by without their
catching glimpses of a uniformed man.
But lack of finances bars the chances
at present.

BEET SUGAR INDUSTRY
IN SAN JOAQUIN VALLEY
On Sale In the Tube

Recently considerable interest has
been aroused among land owners and
colonists in the San Joaquin valley an
reference to the beet sugar industry.
The soil is said to be peculiarly adapt
ed to the successful and profitable
production Of beets. Wednesday a
large gathering of Los Angeles and
other capitalists was held at the Jona-
than club for the purpose of discuss
ing a proposition to establish big
sugar factory in the valley at some
desirable shipping point. 1t is stated
that over $1,0O000o will be required for
the factory and accessories. 1t is
claimed that on Atwell's island, now
known as the Alpaugh colony acreage,
sugar beets are produced in great
quantities, and further that the AL
paugh colonists have demonstrated
that in that neighborhood alone can
beet sugar seed be produced at
profit

THIRD TRIAL OF SUIT FOR
DAMAGES is N0NSUITED

The suit of William E. Wyckoff
against the Southern Pacific Railroad
company, on trial before Judge Monroe
in department of the superior court
Yesterday, was non-suited on the
ground of contributory negligence.
Wyckoff sued for $4,000 damages for
injuries received near Burbank in May,
1902 when he was thrown from his
buggy at a crossing by locomotive
running alone, and from which he
claims to have been crippled for life.
After the case for the plaintiff had
been presented Judge Mckinley, for the
defendants, applied for a decision of
nonsuit, arguing that the evidence
had shown very conclusively that the
engineer had done everything in his
power to bring the engine to stop.
He also claimed that the plaintiff
should have exercised more care In
driving across the tracks, and the court
agreed with him.
The case has been tried twice before,
the first trial resulting in nonsuit,
and, from the verdict of the jury in the
second trial, which awarded the plain
tiff $4,000, the railroad company ap-
pealed.

WANT LATER CAR
TO P|CO HEIGHTS
Three o'clock Owl on South Main ell
Patronzed, and Hope Is Enter
tained That Other Lines
Will Benefit

The success and popularity of the new
Main street owl car service which went
into effect about ten days ago has al
ready been demonstrated and while
the car does not pay a commensurate
financial return to the company as yet
1t is believed that it will in time
The chief patronage of the car comes
from newspaper workers and others
whose hours of labor keep them out un-
til 8 o'clock, the hour at which the car
leaves First street and Broadway. The
majority OF these workers, however,
live in Pico Heights and while they still
have some ten or twelve blocks to walk
after leaving the car at the junction
with Main street, it is still great saw
ing in time and distance for them.
The fact that a large number OF pat
rons of the new service are Pico Heights
residents is to be urged upon the COM
pany as a reason for putting on regu-
lar Pico street service leaving down
town at 8 o'clock. In case such service
is granted there are at least fifty other
night workers who now live In other
sections of the city and in Colegrove
and Hollywood who will secure homes
in the Pico Heights district and become
regular patrons of such service.
The fact that the company has been
using a Pico street car for its Main
street owl service for the past night or
two gave rise to the report that Pico
Heights service had been put on, and it
caused a whoop of delight to go up
among the night workers which, if it
had been heard by the companys off,
cials, would have gratified them
nightly and given them much encour-
agement for the extension of their night
service to such district.
