Plucky Woman Holds Fast to Babe
and as She Is Hurled Through

Child

Mrs. Bertha Rice of this city, accom-
panied by a woman friend and a solicit
tor for the Pacific Purchasing COM
pany. met with an accident at Alamitos
Bay late yesterday afternoon which, by
a seeming miracle, was not serious.
Mrs. Rice, carrying a 6-conths-old
babe in her arms, with her companions
drove to Alamitos to transact some
business, and while the man of the
party entered real estate Office the
two women sat in the buggy.
A noisy automobile containing two
men and two women came along the
road at high speed. frightened the
horse attached to Mrs. Rice's vehicle
and caused the animalu to swerye
across the road. The motor car struck
the blackboard and tipped it partly over.
Mrs. Rices woman companion was
thrown out and two wheels of the motor
car passed over her body. She was
badly injured and was taken to mouse
nearby and physicians called.
The horse frightened, ran away and
into a telegraph pole and Mrs. Rice and
her baby were thrown out. Mrs. Rice
turned a complete somersault, but for
tunately alighted on the ground with
the baby clasped in her arms. The
child escaped injury.
The occupants of the automobile, who
refused to give their names, assisted
Mrs Rice to a house and rendered
sum of money to pay for the damage
to the vehicle, and then left.
Mrs. Rice's companion is said to be
seriously injured, but she escaped with
bruises,

the Rev. DIR. Charles H. Parkhurst, as

Mayor McClennan said: CAS- Commits

lieve that ne has failed to do his duty
and that have had knowledge of that
failure, then l shall have no disposition

ROW OVER
FXRE-ALARM BOXES
AUDITOR MUSHET AND CHIEF
LIPS CLASH
Council Favors Competition in Bids
and Manual System May
Be Installed at
Once

City Auditor Mushet induced the
city council yesterday to lay over ac-
ton authorizing the purchase of ffty
Gamewell fire alarm boxes at $125
each.
AS a result it is probable that a
manual fire alarm will be installed in
Los Angeles at once and that other
systems besides the GameweH Will
have a chance of trial.
Mr.. E.ushet says that the Star elec-
trio is a successful system that was
tried in Cleveland. The members of
the department there knocked" it,
but as soon as Mayor johnson dropped
the discontented ones from the de-
partment the system was found to
work excellently.
Fire Chief Walter Lips insisted yes
terday that the Gamewell was best
and he and the auditor had a lively
dialogue.
Councilman Dromgold also raised his
voice in favor of the competition, as
did Councilman Wallace.
1--WE certainly need the boxes" said
Fire Chief Lips I'VE need fifteen or
eightec in the Fifth ward alone"
Both councilmen remarked there was
no use advertising for bids when the
specifications plainly limited the sys-
tenn to the Gamewell patents.
Auditor Mushet said he was holding
UP $4,000 of the Gamewell company's
demands and he proposed to hold them
up till the matter was threshed out in
the courts.
1.-THE council will not get these de-
mands. The Gamewell company
threatened last August to sue. If an
inquiry is had it will open the eyes of
the people to things said Mr..
Mushet, solemnly
1--WE paid $5 year rent for eight
years for the transmitters and receiv-
ers we use in the Gamewell boxes, be-
sides the SIPS cost until / insisted on
the city buying these telephones out
right, which we did for $5 apiece. Yet
they had already cost us $40"
Councilman Wallace politely suggest
ed to Chief Lips that he take one of
the three reserve alarm boxes he has
in the city hall basement and install
it in the Fifth ward, where the most
clamor for fire alarm boxes origi-
mated

WORKMAN LOSES IN
SUIT FOR DAMAGES
Judoe Dismisses Action Against own-

Injured

Judge Bordwell yesterday handed
down a decision in the case of I. ID.
Shelton against the Delta Investment
company and the Anderson Chanslor
company, owners and occupants, re-
spectively. of the Delta building.
The action is dismissed against the
Delta company, but stands against the
occupants of the building, the latter
company being in possession of the
building at the time the accident to
Shelton occurred.
Judge Bordwell says the plaintiff has
not made out a case, and the decision
is in favor of the defendant.
Shelton, who was employed by the
Llewellyn iron works, was sent to the
building to repair an elevator. While
at work one of the elevators ascended
and the descending weights struck and
injured him.

Two famous cities of Italy, Genoa
and Milan, are to be connected by a
marvellous electric railroad eighty-flve
miles in length, which is to cost ST.
100000. The excessive cost is owing
to the nature of the country through
which the line will pass. It will re-
qu1re nineteen tunnels, .one of which
will be twelve miles long There will
be 372 bridges, and the road will be
six years in the course of construc-
tion. The cost of the line construc-
tion alone will be 100000 per mile.
The line will be double tracked and
there will be no grade crossings.
Trains will consist of three cars. each
accommodating fifty passengers. It
is proposed to run twenty trains a
day, and it is estimated that the daily
traffic will be 5000 passengers.-The
