TOO MUCH DRINK
RESULTS DlSASTROUSLY.
Young Man Loses a Good Position
and an Older Man Nearly
His Life.

Last Saturday night, as is usual at
the weeks end, was marked by much
heavy drinking, but this time liquor
was the cause of two unfortunate and
serious happenings. Vicente Alarid. a
well-liked and trusted employe Of the
local postoffice, while under the in
fuence entered the store Of Julius
Gerdes and attempted to make away
with some of the stock. Alarid claims,
however, that he mistook the store
for a saloon and after trying
the door, became imbued with the idea
that his friends were playing a trick
upon him by locking him out. Not
knowing what he was doing he shat
tered the glass in the door
and secured an entrance. The nCise
attracted the attention of one of the
guests of the Claire hotel and the
police were notified. Alarid was at
once arrested and placed in jail. The
escapade has cost him his job and
may have still further serious results.
The stolen goods were returned and
the glass broken was paid for. Gerdes
has decided not to prosecute, but Dis
trict Attorney E. G. Abbott will take
up the matter.
Fell to Probable Death.
While out with friends Saturday
night, Roman Lucero, former guard
at the penitentiary, drank more than
was good for him. At late hour
| while in maudlin condition, he set
out for home. Reaching the concrete
| bridge spanning the Santa Fe creek
J at Don Gaspar avenue, he sat down
at the side of the bridge to rest. Sud
denly he toppled over backward and
!; fell heavily to the rocks below. He
/ was later picked up by some of the
men from Blossoms livery stable, in a
badly bruised condition His neck
was also painfully twisted. He was
| taken to his home where he lies in g
very critical condition. The man has
wife and six children.

BASEBALL COMMISSION
ADOPTS A NEW RULE

Cincinnati, Aug. ls.-The National
Baseball Commission has adopted a
new rule to cover what rule Sc failed
To do. as 1t has been shown that the
old can and has been eyaded. The new
rule. 81. Is:
whenever major league club has
sold player to a minor league with
an option TO repurchase. ana such OPP
ton has been exercised by the MAJOR
league club selling the player and the
same club then sells the player a secr
oud time OH q straight sale and then
re purchases the player. then, and in
such case, the purchased player must
report to the major league club on OIL
before the 23rd of August. and IL such
players do not report, then In such tn-
stances they will be subject to major
or minor league draft during the reg
ular drafting season from the club
with which they are found playing"
AS an illustration. the Brooklyn club
last year sold Player Finlayson to the
Brockton club with an option to Pc
purchase. which they exercised. Under
the rules this player could not be sold
this, year by Brooklyn, the latter re-
tanning an option to repurchase.
The records show that this year he
WAS sold outright and again repur-
chased by Brooklyn. In this case rhe
player will have to report on August
