the turn in the road, and that as soon as
they had robbed their Vlctlm they TOOK

WAR IS ON OVER
Y-SHAPED BRIDGE
PASADENA AVENUE AND DOW
NEY AVENUE CLASH
Railroad Officials Tell City to Hurry
Plans, Else the Old Buena Vista
Structure Will Be Re-
paired and Used

Pasadena avenue residents are up In
arms to get full recognition in connection
with the proposed bridge in the First
ward.
Shall it be the Buena Vista bridge in
name and in fact, or the Downey avenue
bridge? is the puzzling question.
The bridge and streets will meet in
Y-shape and the street which gets
straight line to Elysian park by means
of the steel structure will be greatly the
gamer in traffic.
Arguments were made before the board
of public works yesterday by interested
property owners.
1t is claimed before the board that the
original Buena Vista bridge was paid for
by Pasadena avenue, not Downey avenue,
owners hence those who paid should reap
the most benefits.
The railroad companies have served no
tice that the city must take action az
once on the new bridge, else repairs Will
be made on the old viaduct and 1t Will
serve the purpose some years longer.
The cost will be over $275,OOO, and until
July the city has no prospect OF funds.
City Engineer Homer Hamlln wants 70
know what the lines will be in order to
get his plans ready and to. prepare for
condemnation proceedings, hence action
must be taken quickly.
Meanwhile Councilman Dromgold is dis
turbed nights because of the controversy.

HUSKY YOUNG CHAUFFEUR
HAS INTERESTING HISTORY

An obscure member of the Bryson party
at the Alexandria, but one who is not
without an interesting history, is Sey-
mour Kerr. young Scotchman who
serves Charles F. Hanlon, the San Fran
cisco attorney in charge of Mr.. Bryson' 8
affairs, as chauffeur.
Young Kerr came to America two years
ago. and the physicians of his native
heath gave him not much more than
three weeks to live.
Since that time he was in train wreck
which resulted in four broken ribs and
numerous other injuries for him, and yet
he is alive to tell about 1t.
Don't look much like a dead one now,
do I?' he asked an acquaintance in the
Alexandria corridor. II guess they could
not kill me off quite as soon as they
thought they could"
The chauffeur's brief life has been one
filled with incidents.
He says he saw three years service in
South Africa during the Boer war and
was the crack rifle and pistol shot of the
regiment. In a contest at the musketry
school of Hythe, England, he made 16;
points out of 16S, missing only three.
Young Kerr took up automobiling ir
Scotland and did some racing over there
When he came to America and succeeded
in disproving the doctors theories and
predictions, he again turned to the ma.
chine. and thus 1t is that he is at the
Alexandria, as husky looking youth as
could be found on two continents.

HEARD AROUND
THE CORRIDORS
HERE'S A WISE BRIDE
AND FOXY BRIDEGROOM
BY THE EAvEsDRCPPER

"Look who's coming! They are on their
honeymoon. Congratulate them and of
fer them the bridal chamber. Put every
body next Please keep this mum
M. Ottenheimer, a member of the firm
of |. & M. Ottenheimer. publishers and
book sellers of Baltimore, Md, arrived
at the Alexandria yesterday, and with
him came a pretty little bride. No; not
with him came she, but before him. She
slipped up to the desk and registered her
name, and few minutes later her hus-
band came in and inscribed on another
page of the register IN. Ottenheimer
In this way he expected to avoid the
curious and to fool all the practical jok-
ers among his friends and acquaintances.
1t happens that the firm of which Mr..
Ottenheimer is a member publishes a
large line of comic postal cards, and
these have served to mar the honeymoon
of many a maid and man ere this. 1t is
safe to say that the bridegroom never
suspected one of his own postal cards
would be used against him. but such was
the case. A postal card bearing the
above advice reached the hotel just a
short time before the bride and bride
groom from Baltimore.
Following out the instructions to the
letter the people were installed in the
bridal chamber. Thery are still congrat-
ulating themselves that not a mar, wom-
an or child in Los Angeles suspects they
are on their honeymoon.

Several of the smaller tanks. were on

fact that they were open at the top, that
