LONG BEACH, Nov. 26.-The pro-
posal to build a fishing wharf 300 II
more feet long at Devils Gate, pie
turesque spot at the foot Of Grand ave
nue., Mira Mar, was brought up by the
council today and the board of works
was instructed to bring in an estimate
of such a structure. The project was
hailed with delight by the residents of
that section, which formerly was Bel
mont Heights territory.
The cost. it is thought VIII be be-
tween $4,000 and $1,000, and when bids
for the municipal docks are opened Il
may be found that they are sufficiently
under the estimated cost of the fishing
pier can be met out of the money re-
ceiyed for the bonds. If not the amount
necessary will be included in the esti-
mated expense of repairs to the
pleasure pier. The fishing wharf will
be built OF creosoted piling.

Niece
Especial to The Heraid.l

LONG BEACH, Nov. 26.-Seated at
his table at his home. 7A Alamitos ave
nue.. John \. G. Nelson. &C years old,
died while in the midst of q meal. His
body was discovered this morning by
two neighbors, who had become alarmed
at his failure to appear or to get the
papers thrown on the lawn, These
neighbors, Mrs. George Howe and Mrs
Saunders, opened the front door when
their knocks received no response and
saw the old man, crumpled over in his
chair.
They notified the police, and the body
was taken to the McFadyen morgue.
Nelson evidently had been dead sew
eraI days. He had been a sufferer
from heart trouble, and that doubtless
caused his death.
He owned his cottage home, and was
not engaged in any business, owing TO
his health. A niece who lives here sur
wives him.

water-LOgged Launch Sighted

SAN PEDRO Nov. 26.-Captain
Anderson of the schooner Louise.
which arrived today from Umpqua
river with cargo of lumber for the
Kerckhoff- Gunner Mill and Lumber
company, reports having sighted a
launch water logged in the channel
between Point Vincent and the westerly
end of Catalina island, The name
Elton appeared on the launch and an
American flag was still flying. This
launch is not known here, but it may
perhaps have come from Avalon. AS
to whether it went adrift from some
port or was i'm commission and its oc-
cupants drowned is likewise a matter
of conjecture.
