LOCAL EVENTS. Seriously Injured by a Runa way Horse. The Salvation Army Frightens the Animal. The Funeral of a Prominent Member of the Odd Fellows. The Experience of Thomas Brown in the Recent Walnut Grove Disaster.— Other Items of Interest. For some time past numerous com plaints have been made at police head quarters jby owners of vehicles, whose "horses have been frightened by the in harmonious band which heads the Sal vation Army in its daily marches through the main streets of the city. That the public, peace is disturbed by the bray ing of the army's brass trumpets aud the thumping of its drum, is stated ; hut the police say they are powerless by the decision of the courts, and refuse to interfere when called upon. An inci dent illustrative of 'the carelessness of the army's drummer occurred yester day afternoon, when by almost a mir acle a gentleman escaped being fatally injured. At about 2:30 o'clock Mr. J. B. Dukes, a well-known rancher from the Cahuenga pass, was driving along Spring street in a buggy and met the Salvation Army between Second and Third streets.' The horse attached to the vehicle was a young and fiery animal, and was inclined to shy at the procession. Instead of waiting un til the vehicle had passed in safety, the drummer commenced thumping his noisy instrument just as the horse was abreast of him, and as a natural conse quence the animal was startled beyond control and bolted. Mr. Dukes was un able to stop his horse, which ran to Third street, cramping the buggy in turning the corner. The driver was thrown out of the vehicle and fell upon bis face on the curbstone, sustaining a bad cut under the right eye and serious internal injuries. Tlie horse continued its mad career along Broadway, wreck ing the buggy until nothing but a few splinters remained attached to the har ness, when he was caught on Seventh street. Mr. Dukes was picked up and con veyed to the police station in the patrol wagon for medical treatment, which was rendered by Dr. Wing. C. E. GAULT'S FUNERAL. It Is Attended by a Large Concourse of Friends. Yesterday afternoon the body of the late Charles E. Gault, w ho died at Beau mont on Thursday morning last, was laid in its last resting place in the Odd Fellows' cemetery, Stephenson avenue, Boyle Heights, by the members of the fraternity in. which he held so promi nent an official position. Tbe funeral took place from the Odd Fellows' hall on the corner of Spring and First streets, tlie interior of which was draped with black and white crepe for the occasion. The interior of the hall was decorated with the Moral tributes of the friends of the deceased, many of which were strik ingly beautiful. Among them were an immense broken column, composed of callas, heliotrope and hyacinths, which stood near tlie casket which con tained the remains; a heart, an chor and many other emblems of the order, composed of callas. A de sign of three links made of roses and white flowers, the tribute of tlie Golden Rule Lodge No. Kit), was remarkably conspicuous for its beauty. The pro ceedings commenced at 2 o'clock, at which time the large hall was packed almost to suffocation, with the singing of the hymn "One by One," by a quar tette, which afterward sang the favor ite hymn of the deceased, "Jesus, Lover of My Soul." The opening prayer was given by Rev. R. S. Cantine, of the city, and was followed by Rev. Will A. Knighten in a brief resume of the life of the deceased. Rev. Mr. Hildreth, of Beaumont, fol lowed with a short address relative to the noble qualities of the, deceased Knight of Chivalry, and Rev. Will A. Knighten then delivered an eloquent sermon eulogistic of the deceased's char acteristics. At 8:46 o'clock tbe funeral procession was formed, and marched in the follow ing order along Spring street to Seventh, where vehicles were in waiting to con vey the mourners to the cemetery: Ger mania bawl, Canton Orion of Patriarchs Militant in full uniform, Fast Side Lodge No. 325, Good Will Lodge No. 323, Golden Rule Lodge No. Kit), Orange Grove Encampment No. 31, Magnolia Encampment No. 8(i, Los Angeles Lodge No. 35, four hacks containing Rev. W. A. Knighten and pall-bearers, hearse, eight backs containing friends and rela tives of deceased, and fifty carriages of every description, forming altogether a line considerably over a mile in length. At the cemetery the last sad rites were conducted by the members of the Grand Uidge, and it was hilly 5 o'clock before the solemn ami impressive ceremonies were concluded and the fraternity dis banded. WALNUT GROVE DISASTER. The Story of the Flood as Told by One of the Engineers. Mr. Tom Brown, who at the time of the great dam disaster on Hassayanipa creek, near Prescott, Arizona, in which two dams of tlie Walnut Grove Water Company were washed away and some forty odd lives lost, was superintendent of the operations at the upper dam, has been spending several days in Los An geles. Mr. Brown was the first to notice the alarming rise of the water in the creek, and it was he who dispatched the messenger the evening before the acci dent to warn the workmen below. At that time the water was running through a vent provided in case of high water, and from the rapidity of the rise he feared that the structure might not hold. When the upper dam did finally go out, at about 2 O'clock in the morning, Mr. Brown and several of his men were standing on one end of the structure, and barely escaped to higher ground with their lives, losing all of their effects. One man, who was asleep in a shack in the course of the stream, was sustained by his cot floating on the wpfer until (he roof of the cabin was knocked out, anil then be was enabled to reach shore; Ht was on the opposite TIIE LOS ANGELES HERALD: MONDAY MORNING, MARCH 24, 1890. side of the canon, however, from that on which the uninjured buildings were standing, and he was unable to cross tbe swollen stream for three days. Pro visions were thrown across to him at tached to rocks. The flood cleaned out the cafion so thoroughly of all light matter that noth ing bm solid walls of rock remained, and the place was unrecognizable to men who had livfcd there for years. The bodies of the un.Wtunates were badly pounded and braised, and lay in all sorts of po sitions, some being buried half their length in gravel. About ten of those known to have beOn drowned have no! yet been discovered. A great deal of gold was washed out by the rushing water, and one huge nutr- j get, several inches square, was picked Up and presented to the president of the company. President Van Buren and a corps of engineers are now at work prospecting sites for new dams, and tbe company will probably soon go to work. Mr. Brown had under way, and within four days of completion, a costly addition to the upper dam in the shape of an outlet for flood water, when the outbreak oc curred. He will spend a short vacation At Pomona until work at the dams is recommenced. AN OUTER HARBOR. Extracts From the Report of Col. Men dall on the Subject. While our people tire asking rather that our present harbor should receive the required attention from the Govern ment than tbat an outer harbor should be created for deep draft vessels, it may be of interest to our readers to know a few of the facts contained in Colonel MendalPs report to tbe Government on tbe subject of creating an outer harbor. The report was made in 1880, and we quote from it as follows: , "The Bay of San Pedro is the best known of these roadsteads (between Sun Francisco and San Diego), ami is the only one that has now, or ever has had, foreign commerce." "A considerabl fleet of deep-water ships is employed in foreign commerce from this port." "It derives commercial advantage, as Compared with San Francisco, from the fact that it affords a much shorter and easier line for overland transportation to the Atlantic for Asiatic commerce." "The advantage of San Pedro, as com pared with San Francisco in overland competition, is something like 800 miles." "San Pedro has advantages over San Diego in light grades found on its rail way route from the coast to San Bernar dino." "San Pedro has a much larger foreign trade than San Diego." "Tbe loading and discharging of deep water ships are now effected by the use of lighters." * * "The tax upon commerce resulting from this system is made considerable, not only by the direct cost, of this method of trans-shipment, but -by the delay thereby Imposed upon the' Vessel." "Tbe improvement of San Pedro bay is connected with the problem of competi tion: to r tbe Asiatic trade, which is con sidered by competent authorities to be yet in its infancy." "I recommend the place as worthy of improvement." When we add to Huch facts aa these thf* national importance that such a harbor would have as a harbor of refuge, it becomes evident that its creation is a certainty. The first step, however, and the one for which we must work, is the full development of our present harbor. With this accomplished, time and the favorable conditions of its location for commerce will accomplish the rest. — [ 11 arbor Review. PROFITS IN ORANGES. An Interesting Showing for an Acre of Land. As the subject of orange culture is re ceiving general attention just now, the following calculation by an experienced orange-grower of Riverside, as published by a journal of that place, is of interest: "My opinion of the value of unim proved orange land in this valley as an investment, aside from Speculative pur poses, is based upon Ute experience of the past eight or ten years, and is that at $600 per acre it will pay better than any other species of investment with which lam acquainted.
