HOWARD BIERcE's FEAT
Novel Method of Bagging Rabbits on
 Canaan Mountain.


 AS an expert "w1ng shot," Howard Bieroe will have to wear the medal, even though his modesty impels him to dis. claim the honor.
 It comes to him in this way Howard was out on Canaan Mountain the other day. with party of other local sports. men. looking for rabbits. In making his way through the tangled underbrush Howard in some way tripped over a root and stumbled into heap of brush, land ing on all fours and dropping his gun.
 Before he could gather himself to- gether, he felt squirming under him, and immediately out jumped rabbit from beneath the sportsman and started to scamper away. Without taking time to scramble to his feet, Howard managed to grab his gun, pointed it in the general direction taken by the rabbit, pulled the trigger with the thumb of his left hand, and was probably more surprised than che rabbit itself when Bunny dropped dead in it's tracks with charge of shot in it's little inside Howard says there may be better ways of hunting rabbits than by falling on top of them first, but that way is good enough for him, and when the deer law goes otf next year he's going to try the same game on the deer.

HOT SPORT IN ASHLEY

George Hall, Afoot, Beats VanDeusen's s
 Trotter.>
 What was considered one of the most exciting sporting events that Ashley Falls, ever witnessed occurred last Fri day morning, when, as the result of. an argument, wager was made between George Hall and Levi VanDeusen to the effect that MT. Hall was to run foot race against the trotting of MT. Van Deusen's prize horse called Kirschen- wasser, the race started at the railroad station and ended at Hoag's crossing. Myron Decker was judge, MT. Hall won the race by five paces. Without doubt Kirschenwasser would have won but some miscreant placed fence-rail across the road at the Maplewood Inn in honor of MT. Hall.
 On Thanksgiving day, MT. Terry Mullen will race over the same track against Kirschenwasser, at the present time the trotter is at MT. Decker's stables being trained by w. T. Moore, Walker 6 Hall are training Mir. Mullen. In the meantime the spectators are waiting in breathless suspense.

Enjoyable New England Supper

The fancy work sale and New Eng land supper given in the parlors of the Pilgrim church Friday afternoon and evening proved a gratifying success in every way. The articles offered for sale found ready market at good prices thanks to the irresistible persuasiveness of the "clerks" behind the counters whose loyalty to the "cause" became infectious; the supper, efficiently served by active and capable young ladies, was worth twice the price asked for it, and the ta- bles were occupied constantly, with a long line on the waiting list, from five o'clock until seven. The rooms and tables were appropriately decorated in keeping with the New England supper idea, most important of all, the net re- ceipts totaled in the neighborhood of $130.

TURKEYS HIGH

At 35 Gents They are Not in the Usual
 Thanksgiving Demand.
 The fall in the price of meat hash t stunned the Thanksgiving turkey, to any alarming extent. With turkeys at 35 cents pound dressed-that is, with nothing on-there will be probably less indulgence in the usual and orthodox Thanksgiving speciality this year, al- though the local markets report 8 fair trade in turkeys, but nothing like the demand before the prices went soaring sky-high.
 Chickens, at 24 cents. are in greater demand and more of these fowl than usual have been disposed of.
 Oysters will be the popular dish this Thanksgiving. tn ough they sell at from 40 to 50 cents a quart.
 Celery is selling at 10 cents a bunch, Boston hot house lettuce 15 cents a head and Malaga. grapes IS cents a pound which is about the same for the trim mings" as last year.

Clint. Helped to Do 1t

Clinton Roraback, who was one of the staff of coaches of the Yale football team. and helped lick the aggregation into shape to break even with the champion Harvards, says that notwithstanding Yale's inglorious defeat at the hands and toes of Brown, 8 couple of weeks before, he was not surprised at the teams re- markable showing against Harvard. Like the other. experts he detected. even during the disastrous Brown game, the making of a winning team in Yale's eleven, which needed only the thorough and merciless discipline and hammering down which they subsequently, received, to put them into fit-as-a.f fiddle shape.

GENIUS IN PRISON
Burglar Garrison Shows Rare Skill at
 Jackknife Carving.

 Jackknife Carving.
 Robert Garrison, who, serving a sen- tence in the state prison for burglaries committed on the cottages at Twin Lakes, has been employing his leisure moments in whittling out various arti. cles of wood with his jackknife. In this line he has developed remarkable skill. A few days ago he sent to Constable Rhoades pair of wooden handcuffs of the orthodox shape and pattern, colored with a coating of metallic liquid to re- present steel, connected with slender chain and fitted with key of the regu lation pattern. They are really work of genius. He sent MT. Rhoades at the same time 8 number of peachstones which he had carved into various devices monkeys, devils, etc, which revealed not only fine handiwork but a genuine artistic bent. which if cultivated, devel- oped and followed, would pay better in every way than the more heroic art of burglary

WHERE LINE WILL BE
TROLLEY WILL RUN
 BESIDE MAIN TRACKS
Official Information That the Electric Road Will Parallel the Main Line From the Garfield Inn to the State Line Near Hoag's Crossing.

"The trolley line has been def-
 nitely located immediately adjacent
 to the W. Y., N. H. & H. R. R.
 tracks paraIleling them from the
 hotel in Canaan to the state line.
 'tThe work will not be prosecuted
 through the winter unless weather
 conditions are extremely favorable.
 The line should, however, be open
 for travel not later than January
 |, 1911"
 The above, received from the press bureau of the Consolidated Railroad at New Haven, in reply to direct questions submitted by The News. will put stop to the wild guessing and random speon- lation that have seemed to keep tlie trolley layout up in the air or dodgin 3 from the east side of Railroad street to Bennett's Hill, and will dispel the un- certainty as to location, that has, been worrying most of the population fer some weeks.
 Some of the guess-work prophets have confidently set forth that the railway company proposed to come down into the village on the west side of the tracks, on Railroad street and would purchase and tear down all the buildings on that side, including Bullock 6 Felten g general store, Wigglesworth's tin ana stove store, Walters meat market, Ives 6 Peirce's grain store and all the other buildings in that row, at an estimated expense ranging from $50, 900 to $I50, ,000.
 Others have just as confidently de- clared the final location of the trolley tracks would bring the line over the Town Hall hill between Mrs. J. B.. Rhoades' residence and Christ church. while still others have had the line entering the village on upper Elm street around Sheridan Barnes corner
 It will be a relief tC our citizens generally to know that the location has been finally and definitely determined whether or not that location is as 8 ma ajority of the people would wish.

THE WATER SUPPLY
 IS GETTING LOW
Probably Won't be Famine, but Don't
 Waste the Water

Waste the Water
 The water in the Canaan reservoir is at an unusually low mark, for this sea- son of the year, and the same conditions in almost any other town would virtually give rise to some alarm as to the water supply. In fact some who have visited the reservoir, do not hesitate to say that unless heavy rains come before winter weather sets in, the condition is sure to become serious. as the big receptacle is very near empty.
 Superintendent Rhoades, of the Water Company, however, is not viewing with alarm. Asked as to the prospect of a water famine, MT. Rhoades said:
 "It is true the water is low in the reservoir, but I am not worrying about anything like 8 water famine, for the reason tbet our reservoir is fed from living springs that have never known to dry up, and which pour water into the reservoir practically as fast as it is con- sumed unless there is wasteful extrava- gance in the use of water, winch is always well to guard against. Of course it would be better if we were to have plenty of rain before the ground freezes up. and in all probability we will have, but in any event it is not advisable to worry about water famine-neither is it advisable for water users to be waste ful or extravagant in the use of water" !"

News of the Courts
WOMAN'S MARRIAGE To
BIGAMIST IS ANNULLED
Pearl Powers, the Daughter OF a
Wealthy Chicagoah Freed
from Bogus Count

Judge Hutton yesterday issued an
order annulling the marriage of Pearl
Wood Powers and Count" Carl Won
Der Hagan, who was taken east on
the charge of bigamy several months
ago and who is now serving an eight
year sentence in prison. The count
is alleged to have married eight dill
ferent women in the United states,
where his career has been exceedingly
spectacular since his arrival from Ger
many six years ago.
The plaintiff yesterday commenced
her action for annulment on the ground
that the count" had married Anne
Miller prior to 1908, Regina Veihle-
man in the fall of 1903 and for other
marriages she claimed took place, no
divorce being secured in each instance
The plaintiff is the daughter of a
wealthy Chicagoan, and when he mar
ried her, the bogus count settled down
in this city as a. broker and realty man.
Charges were preferred against him,
however, by several of his eastern
wives and protesting every move he
was carried back to New York and
given a trial, a jury finding him guilty.
Won Der Hagan has gone under d
number of different names since he
arrived in America, but claimed that
the one he used in Los Angeles was
his real name. He claimed to be con-
nected with a titled family in Ger
many, but up to the present time there
was nothing shown by him to sustain
this notion, little faith being placed in
his claims.

FIGHT AGAINST GARBAGE
STATION FORCES ACTION
Solution of Vexing Problem viii
Be Sought at Council
Meeting Today

Something will have to be done
quickly to mitigate the nuisance of
the garbage transfer station at Also
and Anderson streets. This was the
decision of the public welfare commit
tee yesterday and the matter will be
made a special order of business for
10:30 o'clock this morning when the
council meets to canvass the vote cast
at the bond election last Tuesday.
The hot weather has made the odOrs
at the transfer station unbearable, ac-
cording to complaints registered with
the committee yesterday, and the board
of health has been considering holding
a special meeting TO take UP the ques-
ton with c. A. Alexander, the gar
bage contractor.
Dr. |. r. Bancroft, assistant health
officer told the committee yesterday
that the smells from the transfer sta
ton were most obnoxious and come
under the definition of nuisance, ac-
cording to the state law.
The point in question is where the
garbage collected from the city in
wagons is transferred to cars of the
Pacific Electric and hauled to Bald
wins ranch. Since the station was es-
tablished several months ago the
board of public works and the city
council have been beseiged by protest
ants, but nothing has been done to
relieve the situation.
When the protests grew to the pro-
portions of a storm Alexander made
an effort to move the station a mile
farther cast, but no sooner did inter-
ested persons learn of his plans than
an equally loud protest came from that
direction.

PROTEST AGAINST PARK
IMPROVEMENT LACKING

Under the careful checking of the
city engineer the formidable protest
presented by property owners in the
South park assessment district
dwindled to less than a majority and
the public welfare committee of the
council was at a loss to know just
what to do yesterday. The committee
had promised that If the protest pre-
sented several weeks ago proved to
bear the signatures Of the owners of a
majority of the frontage, proceedings
for the condemnation of land to be
added to South park would be aban-
doned. As it was considerably less
than a majority the committee took
the matter under advisement.
The frontage in the assessment dis
trict is 65s, 996 feet. The amount neces-
sary for a majority is S29,499 feet The
protest showed 265,510 feet. Some of
the persons who had signed the pro-
test told the committee yesterday they
had been induced TO do so by misrep-
resentation. They had been told their
assessments would be very high If the
work proceeded, whereas it is estimated
the average cost will be about $40 per
fifty-foot lot.
1t is desired to condemn strip of
land on the north side of South park,
which is privately owned and some of
It improved with a good class of homes.
This Improvement is to be made at the
cost of the property owners in large
assessment district.

on-combustibe material expired last
November, Durbin has been doing the
work on a month to month basis with
out formal contract Specifications
have been prepared for this purpose
and are now in the hands of the city
attorney, but it probably will be two
months before formal contract can
be entered into and the board of pub
lie works asked the council for per-
mission to engage Durbin's teams dur
ing May at 81 a day. The council re-
fused to approve another emergency
contract and demanded that the board
advertise for bids. The board followed
the instructions of the council and the

RAILWAYS EAGER To
TAKE CITYS ADVICE

A disposition to meet the board oi
public utilities half way on many prop
ositions is shown by the street rail
ways and other utility corporations
under the jurisdiction of the board. The
board believes the railways, especial
ly, are making genuine effort &c
comply with suggestions. This Is
shown in a letter received yesterday
by the board from q. E. Newlin, at
torney for the Los Angeles Pacific
His letter follows:
Acknowledging receipt OF your
favor of the 18th inst, informing
me that motormen of this company
on the Hollywood branch are in the
habit of going by passengers who
desired tc take such cars, without
displaying the "Take Next Car"
Sign, and also passing said passen-
gers in a careless and reckless man
ner:
Permit me to thank you most
heartily for the information there
i'm contained. and to assure you that
steps will at once be taken to put
an end TO such actions on the part
of said motormen. To that end,
additional instructions will be
given to them regarding the ordi-
nance and a strict compliance will
be insisted upon with the terms of
the same, which you state have
been violated.
You will, of course, understand
that if such knowledge had come
to any of the officials of the rail-
road, the matter would have at
once been taken up and rectified.
and it is a distinct favor you con-
fer upon the railroad, as well as to
it's patrons in calling the matter
to its attention-for which again
permit me to thank you.

Municipal Affairs
CITY IS SHOWN HOW TO
SAVE SUM OF S2,500,000
Auditor Points Out Way to Re-
serve Interest on New
Power Bonds

How $2,5000 900 in interest on the har-
Dor and power bonds may be saved
was pointed out by City Auditor Myers
in a report he submitted to the finance
committee yesterday. The committee
was favorably impressed with the re-
port and probably will recommend to
the council that the auditors sugges-
tion be adopted.
The method was discovered by #. B.
McClouth, deputy city auditor, and
Mr. McClouth has been porting over
tables of figures for the past two weeks
TO put the matter into shape. His plan
is for the city to purchase its own
bonds and pay the interest to Itself.
The report, which follows. shows how
this may be done:
early in my administration the fact
was brought to my attention that the
city was investing its water works
sinking fund in short term bonds, and
also that the city upon the recon-
meadation of the aqueduct depart
menD was avoiding the purchase of
long term bonds. on February 21, 1910,
] addressed a letter to the honorable
city council. calling attention to the
error and financial loss TO the city
in concentrating our investment privl-
leges on short term bonds rather than
upon long term bonds. After some dis
cussion Of the matter, l presented on
March 1S. 1910 a rough summary OF the
position I had taken setting forth the
conditions on which the sinking FUND
was established and substantiating the
advisability of buying long term bonds.
"Our recent harbor and power Az per
cent bonds election appears to afford a
, peculiar and exceedingly gratifying
opportunity to apply the recommends
tion which I set forth in these commu-
nications in the investment of our
water works sinking fund and the sink
ing funds of our harbor and power
bonds. and a saving to the city In
interest of about 50 500, 900, which other
wise We would have to raise by taxa
ton. TO make this enormous saving
possible these new harbor and power
bonds must be issued in a particular
manner both as to their term of years
and as TO the dates of maturinty. II
these features are properly considered,
we will be I'm a position to purchase
outright our $4,000. 900 harbor bonds and
provide a harbor working fund avail
able within the next three years
I'm order to do this our power bonds
should be forty-year- bonds issued be-
fore December 1, 1910, and redeemable
at the rate of 100000 each year. begin
ming December |. 1916; and our harbor
bonds should be thirty-six year bonds
at nominal rate Of interest only
(preferably non-interest bearing), ia
sued before December 1. 1910, and re-
deemable at the rate of 100000 each
year. beginning December l. 1917
II am incloslng tables for your In
formation In making these computa-
tions there appeared more of a margin
than had beeen expected. so that 1t Is
NOT entirely impossible that we could
buy the $500, 900 power bonds rather
than the S3.00O,O00 harbor bonds"
