Murakami came to Los Angeles yes

evidently were aware, and after taking
his watch, walked off with the shoes

Burton, the man in the case.
Mrs. Robinson, it is said, long had

while he had been in her company

A dispute of long standing between
Mrs. Long of 1882 West Twelfth street
and her next door neighbor, Mrs.
Catherine Callahan of 1924 West
Twelfth street, was amicably adjusted
by Deputy District Attorney Alexander
yesterday, who laid down rules for
both disputants to follow if they
wished to escape facing charges of
disturbing the peace.
Each of the women at different
times has visited the office of Alex
ander several times during the last
ten days, adding to their story of the
trouble. Yesterday the attorney had
both women call and then had the
matter thoroughly discussed.
Must Build Fence
According to their stories of the
quarrel, which dates back several
months, Mrs. Callahan's house is built
up to within eleven inches of the di-
viding line between the two places
on Mrs. Longs side of the line the
latter has row of geraniums, which
she sprinkles frequently, using hose
to properly irrigate the plants. The
water, it seems runs off and under the
house occupied by Mrs. Callahan. The
latter objected to this, and numerous
wordy battles have resulted.
Mrs. Long says Mrs. Callahan en-
tered her (Mrs. Long's) yard st. Pat
rick's day and took two shovelfuls of
shamrock from the lawn. This Mrs.
Callahan denies, and declared that
Mrs. Long told spiteful things about
her.
A number of petty differences be-
tween the two neighbors finally were
disposed of, and because of the tam
gled conditions Alexander decided to
try and bring about settlement of
the trouble without issuing the COM
plants asked for.
