FALLS TO WHAT
APPEARS DEATH
YOUTH PLUNGES OVER CLIFF
ON WEST FIRST
DASHED sEvENTY-FlVE FEET TO
STREET BELOW
Escapes with Slight Brush Wound on
Temple and DlsIocated Wrist,
Being Also Stunned for
the Moment

Falling seventy-f1ve feet and escap-
ing with slight brush wound on the
right temple and dislocated wrist was
the experience of Edward Dancey, a
17-year-old boy living with his parents
at 511 West Second street. He lost his
balance while standing on the edge Of
the cliff on West First street. near
Olive, yesterday morning shortly after
o'clock.
Young Dancey, with several COM
panions was playing about the
top of the hill. Some of the boys were
playing leapfrog, and two of them were
wrestling. Dancey was standing on
the edge of the cliff, and the boys who
were scuffling were directly behind
him. Suddenly, without warning, they
fell against him. He lied to avoid
falling, but lost his balance and
plunged headlong down toward the
street, fully seventy-f1ve feet below.
He attempted to save himself, and
grasped desperately at the weeds in
momentum and he rolled over and over
for about twenty-five feet, struck an
obstruction and plunged head foremost
to the street, landing on the side of his
head and on his right wrist. HIS COM
panions, who had witnessed the fall,
were badly frightened when they saw
Dancey strike the street and lie inert.
They started toward him, but before
they reached him he arose, brushed the
rust from his clothing md remarked
! that his wrist hurt him little bit.
After he had recovered his hat, which
had fallen from his head and lodged in
some bushes on the face of the cliff,
the injured lad walked to the receiving
hospital where, after an examination
by the surgeons, it was found that the
he had escaped with a dislocated wrist
and a small brush wound on the right
| temple.
'T did not have time to notice" said
young Dancey, when asked how 1t feels
to fall great distance. II fell so fast
and hit the street in such short time
that I don't remember anything but
being bumped against by two of the
boys, falling down the steep HILL turn
ing a flip and landing on my arm and
head. I was stunned for few sec
onds, but soon got up and hurried to
the hospital"
This is the second accident Of this
kind that has happened in less than
twenty-four hours Friday Afternoon
George Austin, aged 10, living with his
parents at S24 Alpine street, fell from
the top of the Broadway tunnel, on
the California street side, a distance of
forty feet, and escaped with brush
wound on the right side of his face.
That both boys were not killed is con-
sidered marvellous.

POOR FARM INMATE SLASHES
AT HIS THROAT
TERRoRIZEs CROWD WITH HUGE
POCKET KNIFE
Is Hurried to Hospital, Where PhysI-
clans Say He viii Recover, ALI
though He Begs PlteousIy
for Death

In the presence of a number of per-
sons standing near the corner of Sec
ond and San Pedro streets yesterday
morning, Albert Brooks, small, enact
ted, gray-haired man OF So, who has
been an inmate of the county poor
farm, drew a large-bladed pocket knife
and began to slash at his throat Sew
eral persons sprang forward to disarm
the old man, but he waved them back
with his weapon and continued hacking
at his throat until he fell to the ground.
The police were notified and the I'M
fortunate man was hurried to the re-
ceiving hospital, where the surgeons
stitched three and half inch cash
in the left side of his neck and q two
inch laceration in the right side of his
neck. Brooks begged to be allowed to
die, and told the hospital attendants
that he was tired of life and that he
wanted to leave this world of trouble
and strife, as he had no relatives and
there was no one in this world who
cared for him.
Brooks will recover unless the wounds
become infected. While the gashes
measure nearly six inches in all, they
are not deep and will have healed en-
tirely in a few days.
The old man was sent to the county
hospital June 13 to be examined as to
his sanity. He had been acting queerly
anu II was IuOuBnL THAT lie was llSh-
tally unbalanced. The case against
him was not proved and he was sent to
the county poor farm, as he was with
out money.
Brooks has lived in Los Angeles and
the adjoining towns for the last TWEEN
ty-one years. He usually works in liv-
cry stables, and is said to be slightly
demented at times.

years." said the old man Yesterday

than a score of years ago, and have

CASE ASSURES
CITY'S FUTURE
Inner Harbor Can Be Made, at Slight
Expense, to Furnish Finest
Anchorage on the Pa
clfic Coast

Now that the supreme court has
handed down a favorable decision in
the matter of the shoestring strip an
nexation 1t is believed that the last
obstacle to the fulhllment of the ambi-
ton of the city of Los Angeles to be
one of the greatest seaports has been
removed.
The strip of land which has been the
cause of much litigation is one-half
mile wide and sixteen miles long and
extends from the south boundary of
Los Angeles to the north boundary of
the city of Wilmington, place of
about 200 inhabitants. To make Los
Angeles a harbor city it is only neces-
sary to consolidate with Wilmington.
This step will not be difficult, as the
people of that town are practically a
unit in desiring this change.
Persons who have given the matter
thorough consideration say that with
in the next five years there will be
miles of wharfs where there are now
nothing but marshes and sand hills.
For the purpose of formulating plans
to hasten the consolidation of the two
cities the municipal harbor commits
sion Is preparing to hold conferences
with the leading business men and
prominent and influential citizens of
Wilmington in order to learn their
wishes and what view of the proposed
consolidation the residents of that
place take.
Secretary A. P. Fleming Of the har-
Dor commission says that the south
boundaries of Los Angeles extend to
Wilmington, where the inner harbor is.
"The inner harbor is what Los Angeles
needs but 1t cannot be developed ex-
cept by Los Angeles" said Secretary
Fleming. "This harbor can be made,
with little expense, into the greatest
harbor on the Pacific coast and one of
the finest in the world Wilmington
will reap the benefit of this, and 1t is
to the advantage of the citizens of that
city to favor consolidation"
