Their names are Francisco Ballastero.Louis'Lowenthal and Juan Baga.

The Chiuaman is a clerk in the employ of Sisson, Wallace store at the depot. He was struck in the face and badly cut, and when found by the police was almost insensible.

A new store is to be built at Korwalk and stocked with general merchandise. It will be located near the new cheese factory, which is now in course of erection. Rumor has it that Henry S. Bahr, of the firm of Eugene Germain who is in from El Paso, Texas, where he has charge of a branch store, will shortly be married to Miss Germain. The authoress- of the "Triumph of Love" is superintending the bringing out of that play herself, and this being the case she will see that the best possible effect is produced.

The Ventura stage was twelve hours late in getting into town yesterday, arriving in the morning, when it should have put in an appearance the previous evening. High water and heavy roads was the cause. A good judge of the value of things in the real estate line gives it as his opinion that lands have advanced twenty-five per cent, since last week.

The people of Compton are still jogging along without any remarkable acts of somnambulism or murder to. create any undue excitement, and yet whenever that wagon filled with chairs and the chains filled with "brothers, sisters and friends," is seen wending its way along the streets, and drawn by a pair of horses that were never known to run away to excite the driver into a state of nervous frenzy, it is very evident that something is going to happen of importance within ten miles of Compton. And so it was the case on last Friday evening. Mr. A.

J. Sanor heartily welcomed the driver, horses, wagon, the chairs and their occupants and all the human persuasion was invited into the cosy littlo house and there welcomed by the family. And still the teams continued to come, of different styles and dimensions, and some of the buggies, perhaps, were a little more affectionate than others, and yet they were all bound for the "social at Sanor's," and undoubtedy behaved themselves properly. And as "birds of a feather flock together)" the older members occupied one and the yourigv. another portion of the house, though there was no "dead lino," and the intermingling became general before thoir departure.

After a goodly unmber had arrived and wcro comfortably seated, there was a call for music. Mrs. Wm. Steele sang a few songs, one of which bore a semblance to a midnight scene, and the strokes of tho clock suspended against tho wall of the room, chimed in with the accompaniment of the rgan, after which Miss Mary Whaley pro duced music from the organ, which was accompanied by a few strains of vocal music by several of the company. The house was well filled with a respect able number of the elite of Comp ton, which occasioned a need of some of those inevitable chairs which had been "resting" for a short time in that worthy vehicle of Compton fame.

And naturally enough nearly all the chairs seemed to snuggle together in quite a social attitude, and undoubtedly would have done so if the houso had been as large as Vanderbilt's parlor. The evening passed pleasantly away and as the company were about to separate and Mr. Sanor was getting his accommodating elbow in position to render overcoat assist ance, Mr. John Howard became the unassuming and genial speaker of the house" and said that as the majority of the members of tho previously appointed Commit tee on Arrangements were absent, the regular social organization would necessarily be postponed until the next meeting. J.

f. (J. NEWPORT. A Small Sized Cyclone Makes its Ap pearance. Last Monday, about 5 o'clock in the af ternoon, as Mr.

and Mrs. Firebaugh were standing in their door watching the rain, their attention was drawn toward Newport by a noise somewhat peculiar, when to their horror they noticed a large wave of water, accompanied a heavy wind, crossing the and when near their house it separated, part going northeast and the other northwest. The one going northeast gained in force so that when it struck Mr. Jamison's place it blew over his corn crib and hay stack, and whirled a cow that was tied near by around like a top. It next struck Mr.

Henry liush house, moving it about eight or ten inches. It then passed on across the plains toward the mountains. W. Hinton, County Superintendent of Schools, gave us a pleasant call this week. He has just purchased ten acres of land near Orange, which he intends planting out iu grape vines this season.

The best ram of the season began falling Sunday night, and continued during Monday, accompanied by thunder and lightning something rare in these parts. Dry weather prophets have all gono to Oregon or Salt Lake they can't prophesy wortn a cent. u. Looking lor a Home. Three families, numbering about twen ty-five people, from Missouri, are in this city looking for a home.

Finding their bills running up too fast at the hotels, they moved into a house in the suburbs, and are taking it pioneer style for the time. Such people are the kind wanted to build up the new State of Southern California. AT THE HOTELS. UNITED STATES HOTEL.

miuams visit was on business and short, but he stayed long enough to make many friends. He delaved his return home one day with the hope of being able to visit I'asadena and the nan Gabriel country, but yesterday's constant rain pre vented. Weather Report Observations taken by the U. S.

This section is safe, and good crops are assured. The measles, which have been making the rounds of this community among the children, have now entirely disappeared.

An exciting debate took place at the school house last Wednesday evening, the question being: Resolved, "That infidel publications should be suppressed by law." It was decided in the affirmative. The question for discussion at the next meeting, which will be held on the 21th is: Resolved, "That works of fiction are injurious." Messrs. Lumbard Johnson have five carpenters at work oil their cheese factory. They have ordered the very best machinery, and they hope in a very short time to have their cheese in the market.

Mr. D. Walters, who was injured by being thrown from his horse some time ago, is now able to be around once more. The saloon was closed here last Sunday. N.

Searching lor Lost Child. Yesterday evening about 5:30 o'clock a lady named Bellton, stopping with her two children at Smith's Hotel was horri fied at the sudden loss of her little boy about fifteen months old. Being a bright, active little fellow he was often allowed to toddle outside on the sidewalk, but after a diligent search by the whole force and guests of the hotel, nothing could be seen or heard of him. Mr. Smith, among others, searched all over the cityt for a long time unsuccessfully, however, until he happened to go along Main street near the court house about dark, and met the child in charge of a gentleman walking slowly, along the street, as if in search of its relatives.

He had met the child on Main street, near First. The littlo chap had strayed away over three blocks, running the gauntlet of street crossings, passing vehicles, entirely uninjured. When Smith arrived home with the child the other one, about four years old, could not be found. Again the poor mother was well nigh distracted with fear, after a momentary joy over the recovery of the other. Diligent search was once more made, the truant child being found at the plaza op posite the Pico House, uninjured also.

The Normal School. A Times reporter interviewed Professor J. H. Braly last evening just before he left for San Jose. Prof.

Braly's business hero was looking after the Normal School. He says the work progresses more favorably than was expected. The people are all of one mind, the location of the building is splendid, and when the work is completed a building will be had one-half the size of the one at San Jose at one-third of its cost. One good thing Prof. Braly did while on this visit was to make provision for a room for the philosophical Such a place requires sunlight, and was selected in the western addition of the building.

The Professor went home feeling greatly encouraged. Police Picking. In the case of the People against Stoll, before Justice Fisher, the witnesses for the people were examined, and, on motion of the District Attorney, the defendant was discharged. The case of the People against Silva, charged with assault with intent to commit bodily harm upon Tonias Bermudas, will come up before Justice Fisher. Thomas uson and Thomas Francis, the Cosmopolitan hotel burglars, were examined yesterday in the police court.

Wilson will please guilty to the charge of burglary, and Frauds does not know if he will, but may do so to-day. This will land these birds in the State prison. They were held to answer before the Superior Court under bail of $500, which being unable to give they were remanded to the county jail. South Round Passengers.

Another Hnunfactnring Enterprise. Mr. S. J. Milliken, a carriage and wagon manufacturer of Cedar RapidB, Iowa, came here with his family a few months ago, hoping that the beautiful climate oi ios Angeles would cure a disease of manv yeare' standing.

The Italian Consul at San Francisco has forwarded a letter to the County Clerk asking for' a certificate of the death of Alessandro Re petto. The letter was sent to the deceased for him to answer.
