THE COURTS.
THE OPENING! OF THE LEONIS WILL
CONTEST CASE.
Th» Testimony Introduced — Parkins on
Trial For Receiving Stolen Goods—He
Claims to Have Been a Stool Pigeon.
Judge Clark's court room was packed
yesterday with witnesses and others
interested in the settlement of the
estate of Miguel Leonis, who died leav
ing property valued at about half a
million.
There are a number of claimants for
the estate, the two principal ones being
Eapiritu Chijulla,or Chabolla or Leonis,
as she is variously called, and Nettie
Pryor, an alleged daughter of Leonis.
It was well on in the afternoon before
the jury could be obtained, and then
it was found necessary to try the case
with ten jurors, which was agreed to by
the counsel for all the claimants.
S. M. White, in behalf of the claim
ant Eapiritu Chijulla, then stated the
case as he intended to establish the facts
to prove, as follows:
That thirty years or more ago tho de
ceased, Leonis, entered into an agree
ment with the woman, Espiritu, and
assumed marriage relations with her.
That according to the customs of her
people they became man and wife, and
that he had repeatedly acknowledged
her as his wife. And that in every way
save perhaps that of formal written con
tract or ceremony, the two had lived for
many years together in the marital rela
tion.
Andrew D. Russell was the first wit
ness called. He had been at Leonis'
place years ago, and knew him well.
Had been a witness before Judge Brun
son in 1886, and saw the woman Espiritu
in court. Leoniß had then, while testi
fying in a case in progress, referred to a
young man as '"Juan, my wife's son,"
at the same time pointing to Espiritu.
Upon cross-examination by one of the
other attorneys, Russell admitted that
the testimony of Leonis at that time had
been taken through an interpreter, and
that he hi nisei I could not understand the
Spanish language.
A motion to strike out the witness's
testimony regarding the admissions of
Leonis waß thereupon sustained.
S. Y. P. Mesa was then c tiled.
"I knew Leonis during his lifetime.
He lived at Calabasns. His family con
sisted of Espiritu and the boy Juan. I
was one time a defendant in "a case be
fore the justice's court, in which Leonis
was the complaining witness. He then
testified that some cattle which I was
charged with taking were the property
of his wife. The lady was then outside
the door of the court room.
"Leonis also spoke of the boy, Juan
Melendez, as his stepson. At another i
time I was in the superior court at a j
case against Leonis for malicious pro- j
secution. Leonis again referred to the
cattle as his wife's. He called her "Mia
Mujer P'spiritu Chabolla."
An effort was made by Mr. Brousseau
and other of the attorneys to show that
"Mujer" meant "woman" not "wife,"
and that Leonis had said he paid her $15
per month to work for him.
The questions put were, however, ob
jected to and ruled out by the court.
Manuel Dominguez testified as fol
lows: Had often seen Leonis at his
home at ,"E1 Escorpione" ranch. I
one time went to borrow money of him.
He told me he did not have as much as
I wanted with him, but told me to go to
his wife. Yes, he called her "Mia
Mujer."
Paul Comorez, Ed. R. Stokes and j
Jose Maze! also testified as to Leonis'
relations with Espiritu Chajulla. The
case continues today and will probably
last for a week.
THE PARKINS CASE.
The trial of W. F. Parkins for receiv
ing stolen goods was continued before
Judge Shaw yesterday. One or two wit
nesses were examined for the prosecu
tion and then the defendant went on the
stand in his own behalf. His testimony
and that ol G. W. Phibbs, VV. A. Bos
qui and others who followed was to the
effect that he, Parkins, had taken the
goods and paid a small deposit on them
in qrder to entrap and finally convict
the two men, Wilson and Murphy, who
had stolen the stufffrom the boxcar of the
Southern Pacific company. William M.
Crumb also testified that while be was
confined at tho county jail awaiting trial
on a charge of adultery, Murphy had
told him that he intended to send Par
kins up for what he, Parkins, had done.
Murphy said that Parkins had him
sent to San Quentin and now he would
be willing to serve another year, for the
sake of sending Parkins up too.
The case ia to come up again this
morning.
COURT NOTES.
Nichodemus Urquitas came up before
Judge Smith yesterday morning for sen
tence on the charge of burglary. A mo
tion for a new trial was denied, likewise
a motion for arrest , of judgment. Ur
quitas was then sentenced to one year
in San Quentin. Notice of appeal was
given and Urquitas was admitted to bail
in the sum of $1000.
In the suit of Wilson vs. Baker, which
has been on trial in department three,
judgment as prayed for was yesterday
granted the plaintiff.
~ In the matter of the estate of William
Vickery, the German Savings and Loan
eociety was yesterday given judgment
for $44,075.15 by Judge Van Dyke on a
first mortgage, while the East Side bank
was allowed $13,094.46 on a second mort
gage. •
Judge Van Dyke also gave judgment
for the plaintiff in the case of the Ger
man Savings and Loan society vs. Val
entine, the amount being $14,059.
A decision in the case of M. Kelleher
vs. C. H. Creciat was yesterday received
from tbe supreme court and filed in the
clerk's office here. The decision dis
misses the plaintiff's bill of exceptions
on the ground that it was not filed in
time, and sustains the defendant in his
view that a copy of findings and final
decree served in writing upon the clerk
of plaintiff's attorney at his office is no
tice to the plaint iff. The case was tried
in department one, in June 1889, and
the decision denh a an appeal to the su
preme court.
THE RAILROADS.
The Plan:; of the Terminal Company
Regarding Salt Lake. .
Gradually the plana determined on by
the Terminal railway magnates are be
coming known, and the more that is
learned of them the more substantial
and important the enterprise is found.
Mr. Kerens" stated while here, a
Herald reporter ascertained yesterday,
that the work ot building the iocal sys
tem here would be completed by about
next September. VU-.-u th-.; work of
building tbe road to Salt Lake will com
mence at once. The company will have
in its coffers at that time something like
four millions of dollars.
Mr. Kerens stated that, according to
his plans, the line would be completed
in about eighteen months' time, which
would make it open for business some
time about April or May in 1803.
NOTES.
Pr. 0. 0. Green arrived yesterday in
his special car from Pasadena, on his
way north.
The Belt company, it was learned yes
terday, have about completed the pur
chase of the Second-street line. There
is no truth in the statement circulated
that they have begun negotiations with
the Main-street line people.
The Southern Pacific passenger trains
known as numbers 17 and 18 will soon
run via Tracy to San Francisco, instead
of as heretofore by way of Lathrop.
ARMY HEADQUARTERS.
A Military Post at San Diego—Other
Matters.
The board for the selection of a suit
able site for military post and harbor
defense will leave here on the 13th for
San Diego. The bids received will be
lirst examined and they will hold their
lirst session on the 14th. All the sites
submitted will be duly inspected, and
the commission will make their selection
as soon as possible.
It is stated at headquarters that an
other company oi Indians is being
formed at the San Carlos agency, the
first company being entirely full and
numerous applications having been
made by other Indians.
Colonel Bliss of the Twenty-fourth
infantry left here last night with his
family for his station at Fort Bayard.
He took a month's leave of absence
which he intended making use of in
journeying through Northern California,
but he has been taken down with the
grippe since he has been here.
WORK OF YOUNGSTERS.
THE CONTENTS OF THE SPRING
STREET SCHOOL MUSEUM.
Examples of the Deft Fingers of Some
Scholars—Boys and Girls Who Have
Produced Remarkable Work.
A Herald reporter yesterday had the
pleasure of visiting a part of the Spring
streetschool notusuallv open to visitors.
A little room on the second floor has been
set aside as a school museum, in which
the scholars have been encouraged to
place specimens of their own work, and
also curious articles of various descrip
tions which they wished to show to
their schoolmates. Leaving out the lat
ter class of articles, the exhibit contains
many really remarkable specimens of
childish handiwork. The most remark
able piece is a miniature windmill,tank
house, tank and pump, constructed by
Leon Griswold, a little lad of 11 years.
The affair stands about eighteen inches
high, and the detail of the construction
is really remarkable. The tank is con
structed of staves made of strips of cigar
box, and the hoops were cut out of an
old tin can and put together in exact
imitation of a large tank.
An inlaid table by Silaa Dunsmoor is
another specimen of painstaking and ac
curate construction.
The bracket saw was brought into req
uisition by 10-year-old Isaac Levy, in
the construction of a little table, which
is a marvel of intricate scroll work.
Miss Dora Ewald contributes a minia
ture stove-pipe k hat, the result of needle
work and paste.
Little Willis Rowe (aged 12), has on
exhibition a panel with a dog's head
carved upon it in relief.
Among speciraensof pencil and crayon
work, Little Edgar Hill, aged 10, takes
the lead with a charcoal drawing and
two very excellent landscapes, which
artists twice as old would not be
ashamed to claim. Master Earl Valen
tine couies next, with five specimens of
charcoal drawing, while in the design
ing department really beautiful designs,
composed of drawings of wild flowers,
are exhibited by Bert Williams, Walter
Taylor, John Goldsworthy and Bertha
Jenkins. In attention to detail in draw
ing of flowers the best specimens are
submitted by Frank Schoolcraft and
Katie Hall.

THE LOS ANGELES HERALD: THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 7, 1891.
BY FALSE PRETENSES.
THE WAY LOS ANGELES STREET
LAND OWNERS WERE FOOLED.
A Correspondent Who Intends to Appeal
to the Courts Against the Confiscation
of His Lands—Some Plain Talk.
Editors Herald : I think your cor
respondent, Mr. Burnett, ia needlessly
alarmed about the prospect of Inning his
land and money for the unnecessary
widening of Loa Angeles street, from
Washington to Twenty-third. None of
the property owners see any advantage
to be derived from the scheme, and
never would have entertained the prop
osition for a moment if they had not
been deceived by promises to pay for
their loss and trouble. That the sum
paid was to be swallowed up by "assess
ments for benefits," was carefully con
cealed from them, and many believed
that any payment they might be called
upon to make was to be expended in
grading the street, so as to make the
promised "boulevard!" Now that they
see through the trick they have not the
least intention of paying assessments to
the amount of $10,000 for widening their
street, and as to cutting up the land
Bouth of Twenty-third street, into little
blocks two hundred and forty or fifty feet
square, they laugh at the idea, being
entirely confident that the laws of the
laud will protect them from any such
unwise measures. If they were to sub
mit to that, these land speculators might
next want to have these toy blocks cut
in two again, so that each block would
consist of four lots, each one a corner.
(Phew! what a scheme.) It is a sad
thing to disappoint the owners of these
three hundred and fifty dollar lots, who
expect to get nine hundred apiece for
them, to make a street where there ia
none needed, but they might as well
abandon their hopes first as last. Our
superior court judges are too wise and
sensible to allow a reckless and irrespon
sible city council—now happily extinct
—to leave such a trail of folly and wrong
behind them aa this scheme to provide
work for camp-followers, called "com
missioners of streets."
The courts are very chary in forcing
people to give up land that they have
bought and made a home of. unless the
public good requiresit. Asoneof our wise
judges said during a recent case, "Where
you take a man's land without his con
sent you must do it according to law."
But what does the average councilman
know about law? scarce aa much as
Nicodemus did about the second birth.
They do what they want to and ask the
advice of their city attorney afterwards,
sometimes profiting by it and oftener
disregarding it. So, Mr. Burnett, don't
hasten to fling your $239 into the first
hat you see, but wisely bide your time
and don't be scared by threatß to sell
your lot for this assessment. They may
sell but they can't deliver the goods.
Except the few who would profit by it,
I do not believe there is a man in town
who would express the opinion that it
would be wise to open an eighty-foot
street through the land lying south of
Twenty-third street and within a hun
dred yards from Main,as ia thia propoaed
opening and extending of Loa Angeles
street, named Carlisle on the city maps.
Its present width of sixty feet would be
much less objectionable, but it ia not
really needed nor waa it ever intended.
