GIRL 18 LAST SEEN AT HOTEL Young Guest of St. Francis Is Anxiously Sought by Her Friends and Police L R MISSING SINCE TUESDAY Annie Baker of Santa Bar- bara Comes Here to Visit, but Suddenly Disappears i it ' The mysterious disappearance from ! Miss Annie Baker of Santa Barbara is' | deeply concerning her friends and rela- ' tives. Yesterday one of her friends, William McKenzie of Monterey, who' arrived here late Thursday in search of the young woman, failing to gain any ' trace of her, acted on the advice of the hotel people and reported the case to the police. The missing girl is 17 years of age and has been living with her mother in Santa Barbara, where she was employed by the telephone com- pany as an operator. Two weeks ago she journeyed north to Monterey to visit the wife of Mc- of whom she was a schooi chum. Sunday night, according to the statement made by McKenzie to the hotel clerks yesterday, Annie received a letter from this city which she claimed was from a family named Ash- ton, living on Washington street, in- | viting her to spend g few days with them. She left Monterey on the afternoon train on Monday and, arriving here late that evening, went to the St. Fran- cis Hotel, where, for some reason which is yét to be explained, she reg- istered under the name of Mabel Bond. The next day she left the hotel and that was the last seen of her. The young girl left her trunk with the Mc- Kenzies in Monterey and had very lit- tle money with her. Wednesday a young man of Monterey with whom Anne was acquainted, re- | ceived a note from her briefly announc- ing her arrival in this city and stating that she was staying at the St. Fran- cis Hotel. The letter was turned over to the McKenzies, who, knowing that | their young acquaintance was not pos- sessed of sufficient funds to permit her to stay at a hotel and, recalling that' Annie had stated that she purposed visiting friends here, became suspicious that all was not right and on Thursday McKenzie came to this city to find the girl. Inquiry at the hotel devel- | oped the fact that no one by the name of Baker was there, but a description of the girl led to the discovery that she had registered under the name of Mabel Bond. McKenzie's next move was to try to locate the Ashton family, but he was ! why it should have been.

Hoping that Annie might returm to the St. | Francis, McKenzie patiently loitered about the establishment the greater part of yesterday and finally was ad- vised to report the case to the police. (CHARGE OF CRUELTY TO A HORSE DEVELOPS RECKLESS TESTIMONY e p—tt— Witnesses Contradict Each’ Other so Flatly That! Police Judge Cabaniss Confesses Inability to Even Guess a Decision in Accord With Justice Milton Rice, vegetable peddler, was driving a horse that collided with a cable car at Sutter street and Grant avenue. The horse was killed and Mil- ton\Rice was before Police Judge Ca- baniss yesterday morning on a charge of cruelty to animals. Half a dozen at- torneys and about a score of witnesses, Including several policemen, were con- cerned in the case, and the hearing consumed an hour of the court’s valu- able working time. Then it was contin- ued for two weeks, when more Wwit- nesses will be ready to testify. According to the evidence for the prosecution Milton Rice, seated upon the wagon, whipped the horse most un- mercifully while it was proceeding down the declivity on Dupont street which extends from Pine to Sutter. Un- der the lash the animal, although aged and somewhat decrepit, dashed along 8o speedily that the driver was unable to check it when he tried to avold the fatal collision. Contradictory of the foregoing was the statement of Milton Rice himself, corroborated by witnesses galore. Rice stated that he had no whip on the oc- caslon referred to and that he did not administer corporal punishment to the horse, but orally urged it onward to keep it from being overtaken by the wagon, which could not be stopped from going down the hill of its own accord because of a defective brake. On the cobble pavement between Pine and Bush streets the vehicle bumped alopg with increasing momentum un- til it arrived at the asphaltum sur- face below, and there the horse started sliding and continued to slide until stopped by the car at Sutter street. No, the horse’s name was not Kelly, nor did Mr. Rice know of any reason he was absolutely positive, and that was the absence of a whip from his driving equipment. His employer strictly prohibited the whipping of his equine property. Nor was the slack of the reins utilized as a lash, because the reins were not long enough to per- mit of such use. Then came a veterinary surgeon to explain the pathological features of the case. His post mortem examination of the horse satisfied him that death wa} directly attributable to the injuries in- flicted by the cable car, but he declined to swear that other injuries that might have resulted fatally had not been re- ceived by the animal immediately prior to the collision. To the best of his be- lief, however, based upon an extended experience in the treatment of horses, the beast in question did not die from | the effects of a whipping.

It is held that the corpora- tion allowed its rights to lapse, if it} was ever possessed of any in the prop- erty in dispute. The action of the citizens in using force to maintain their rights is upheld. | The Southern Pacific Railroad Com- | pany acquired title to the twenty acres of which the thoroughfare consists by purchase from Louis Phillips in 1873. The property was subsequently trans- ferred to the Southern Pacific Com- pany. assignee of the other corpora- tion. - The citizens of Pomona used First street as a highway as early as 1871. In 1875 the Supervisors of Los Angeles County laid out and recorded First street as a public thoroughfare. The agents of the railroad were shown to have recognized the claim of the citi- zens at various times, althou the corporation was never officially noti- fied that the street was made public. On April 13, 1901, the Southern Pa- cific Company commenced the laying @ a track along First street and an- nounced that warehouses would be built as soon as possible, thus per- manently obstructing the thorough- fare. When the citizens of Pomona learned of the plan they turned out in force and put the corporation's ser- vants to flight. Many heads were broken before this was accomplished and for a time much more serious trouble was threatened. The Southern Pacific Company then appealed to the courts for damages and an injunction restraining the citi- zens from interfering with the cor- poration’s work. The lower court de- cided in favor of the city and the higher tribunal affirms that decision. It is held that the road was in open and notorious use for thirty years and that the railroad should have pre- sented its claims earlier if it hoped to prove title to the highway. ———————— ‘Wife—Did doctor prescribe Old Gilt Edge? now you know the best.
