Los Angeles is a truly exciting town
to live in. To say nothing of it's
heavenly climate and its bombs. there
is always something stimulating in
the occult line going on. Just the
other day a widow of the angelic city
began to long for a sight of one OF
her schoolmates whom she had not
seen for 45 years. The longing brought
its fulfillment. A spirit told her to
look for him in Brooklyn. She obeyed,
met him on the street a few hours
after she arrived, and promptly mar
ried him. 1t is worth while to live
in a city where things like this hap
pen, even at the risk of being blown
up now and then.

ASSAULT CASE DROPPED.
Latest Development in laverini Mix.
up in Court Yesterday.

The case of Mr.. and Mrs. Peter
Laverini, charged by their daughter
Amabile with assault and battery
occupied the greater part of yester-
days session in Justice Oliviers court.
The morning was taken up with the
drawing of jury, and when the af-
ternoon session began, efforts were
directed by the attorneys towards
bringing about a settlement of the
trouble without it going to trial. After
much arguing and difference OF opin-
ion on both sides, 1t was finally de-
cided to drop the case, the parents
paying half the costs and the sweet
heart of Amabile to be allowed to
marry the girl provided he would con-
tribute ten dollars towards paying the
costs of the case. The young man
was stubborn. He said that he loved
the girl and the girl gave every as
surance of being fond of him, but he
ten dollars to him to secure Amabile
for a bride. The parents then in
dignantly withdrew their consent to
the marriage and the balance of the
amount due for costs was contributed
by friends of the Laverini family
present in the courtroom. The girl
was then taken back to Houghton to
await action on her case i'm the juven-
lie court before Judge Bentley. 1t Is
expected that the outcome of the af-
fair will be the finding of an agree
able home for the girl with friends,
as she appears to be unable to get
along with her own people.
The hearing of the case of Alfredo
Felippi, charged with shooting Mrs
Mary Barsocchi at her home in West
Hancock last December, which was set
for yesterday, was postponed until
next Monday, February 2S.
