uaeoo bvuiuv wwhw .tiwl% «*• -— what difficalt to obtain information about the divorce records, the only books or records open to the reporter in the county clerk's office bearing upon tbe subject being tbe register of actions, which merely gives tbe names of tbe persons,' tbe statement that it is a di vorce Gate and tbe name of the attorney for the plaintiff. The papers in these cases are not at the disposal of the re porter. In this county, the county clerk makes no effort to prepare any genetal statement of auch matters, and any one who wishes classified informa tion on the eubjectof divorces is obliged to hunt through numerous large volumes of registers of actions and pick out the divorces from all the other complaints which have been filed and entered. Tbe county clerk and hia deputies obey lit erally the law shrouding this class of litigation in mystery, and the work goes merrily on. A Hbkald reporter yesterday ascer tained that up to the present time this year, there Jhave been 189 divorce com glaints filer!, in moat of which decrees aye already been granted. These com plaints by months were as follows: Jan uary, 16; February, 24; March, 20; April, 27; May, 19; June, 21; July, 14; August, 23; September, 25. For the same period last year 152 complaints had been filed, and there were 202 in all during the year. With the same ratio of increase so far ob served this year, 1892 will beat the. rec ord by 50 or 60, quite a healthy increase in the number of disillusioned married people. Quite a noticeable fact in connection with the complaints filed this year is the large proportion of suits instituted by the feminine portion of tbe disgrun tled ones. Oat of the 189 suits begun, 185 of them were started by the wives. Thia does not seem to indicate that the married men of Loa Angeles county are giving entire satisfaction in their mar ital relations; and it may be well for those profound philosophers who like to speculate upon such subjects, to cast their eagle eyes upon this anomalous disproportion, aud account for it. The divorce record of previous years is not nearly so extensive as the past two years. The number of suits insti tuted before the years mentioned waa very much smaller. For some reason the number ia increasing quite rapidly. The following is a list of the suits thus far instituted this year: January—M. M. Robinson vs. Lewis W. Robinson, Mra. M. L. Kuhbell ye.

A Judgment the Blatter Now in Ques tion—A Date Changed While the Paper Was on the Offi cial Files. When Superior Judge Pierce, of San Diego, removed County Clerk Oasaoway, he remarked, in hia opinion, that it was unfortunate that the disgraced official had found it necessary to consult Mr. Trowbridge H. Ward about the manner of conducting his (Gasaoway'a) office, and that it was still more unfortunate tbat he should have acted upon such advice. From what the public haa seen, and the Hebald has faithfully reported, of Mr. Ward's manner of conducting his own office, here in Los Angeles, it will be easily understood bow correct Judge Pierce was in his strictures. Erasures in the documents of which County Clerk Ward is the custodian, crop up and bob up in a manner highly un pleasant to him at unexpected moments. Now it is found that a judgment docket has been meddled with for some unex plained purpose. On the 13th day of January, 1891, a judgment waa docketed against A. Glaa aell. The one above it was dated Jan uary 10th, and the one below January 13th. The date 18 in the Glassell judg ment wae bunglingly erased so that part of it is still visible and the figure 6 sub-, etituted. Now, who did that, and why are such things done ? Can there be any confidence reposed in records tbat are everlastingly showing the hand ol the forger? THE POLICE COURT. The Chinese Jim the Penman Has His Examination Postponed. Louie Hung Wy, tbe celestial Jim the Penman, who waa arrested on Thursday for forging tbe names of several firms in this city, was brought before Justice Austin, yesterday, for examination. The wily Mongolian insisted that he could not speak English, although he had no difficulty in protesting hie inno cence the other day in plain language. He talked through an interpreter, however, and asked for more time to prepare a defense. The court accordingly set Wednesday, October sth, for his pre liminary examination. Bail was fixed at $2000, which Wy was unable to fur nish, so be was locked up again. The case of Wm. Mulholland for dis turbing the peace waa, on motion of the district attorney, continued to Novem ber 16th. Ramon Quijada plead guily to a charge of battery preferred against him by A. J. Grant. The two got into a row on Bellevue avenue last Sunday. Quijada was fined $10, in default of v. iich he was committed to jail for 10 days. Two drunka were fined $3 and $5 apiece. Ihe family physician.

PURE HEAL,™ REFRESHING AG E ■Apollina. "THE QUEEN OF TABLE WATERS.' " I can recommend it in the strongest terms." rVIS A. SAYRE, M.D., fIOSP. MEDICAL COLLEGE, NEW YORK, ETC. THIS IS ALL ABOUT CEMENT, And the Retaining Wall of the County Court House. A Job That Superinduces Minute Cat- aracts and Cascades. Why is It Necessary That the Seams of a Wall Should Fill With Silt In stead of Being Thor oughly Cemented? When the time approached to com plete the work ot the county court house grounds, tbe Republican super visors, fearing if the purchase of the cement needed in the building of the retaining walls was left to the contract or, it might not be of the quality that the magnitude and importance of tbe un dertaking warranted, bought the cement themselves. Yet, with this precaution, so iittle cement waa used in the building of the building of the retaining 'walls that, whenever any water ia used in the court house grounds, it seeps through the seams of tbe walls, aa the sweat pours from the face of a stout man on a hot August day. Anyone who is unwilling to take this statement unquestioned, baa but to walk along Temple and New High streets on days when the court house grounds are being watered, and he will be surprised at the number of bijou waterfalls that spring from tbe walls promiscuously, even an if the wand of Moses had been applied to them. The retaining walls of the court house grounds have to stand an immense immense amount of pressure and should have been laid with particular care, and thia care included a goodly amount of cement. Now, since the county had itself purchased the cement, through its faithful servants, the Republican su pervisors, it seems that tbe contractor might have indulged his spirit of liber ality in an unstinted manner in the ap plication of that necessary ingredient, but that Buch waa not the caae ia evident enough from the statement made above. Not longer than a week ago the atten tion of one of the Republican board of supervisors waa called to the sweating propensities of tbe retaining walla, caused, as already explained by tho in sufficiency of cement, and he spoke about the matter to the foreman of the contractor. Thia eminent mechanic replied that that was all right, and explained that after the waterfalls had had full play for an undetermined period, sufficient silt would have percolated into the seams, so manifestly innocent of cement, to fill them. The question now naturally arises, What did the supervisors get the cement for? It was not contemplated that tbe retaining walls of tbe court house grounds should be built on the principle of the pyramid of Cheops or the Roman aque ducts of the old world, because the art of building in atone and granite, without the use of cement, is rather a lost art; and the fact tbat large quantities of ce ment was bought, indicates that the su pervisors did not mean the court house walla to be thua laid. It ia claimed that but one-fourth of the cement that should have been need in the mortar has been devoted to that end, and now the question pertinently! occurs, If thia be so, what did they get tbe cement for, and what will they do with the cement that will necessarily remain on their hands in tho original barrels, when the job is concluded ?

PARKER. Five Hundred Dollars the Jury Thought was Ample — Court Notes — New Suits Filed on Yes- The parties interested in the breach of promise suit of Helen M. Lowell against her brother-in-law, Leonard Parker of Anaheim, were nearly all present in Judge Van Dyke's, conn room yesterday morning at 9:30 o'clock, to see what the jury in the case had agreed upon. The aged defendant waa absent, but some of his daughters and sons were there and the plaintiff. Tbe jury had decided at 6:30 o'clock the night before on a verdict, but, in accordance with the instructions of the court, returned it sealed. When Judge Van Dyke picked up the fateful inclosure, the eyee of the mem bers of the family were centered upon him with ill-concealed eagerness. When be stated tbat tbe plaintiff would be required to deposit the jury fees, $72, it was known tbat the jurors had de cided that Leonard Parker had not only kissed Miss Lowell, in a platonic and brotherly manner, but had promised to marry her. The fees having been paid, the court read the verdict, which as sessed the damages at $600. Tbe amount was not as much as the plaintiff bad expected, and was quite a falling, off from tbe amount sued for —$10,000. A 10 days' stay of execution was allowed. Court Notes. In tne case of T. W. La Fetra vs. Nel lie H. Uleason et al., before Judge Mc- Kipte'y, the cross-complainant was al lowed to amend the cause, was submit ted on briefs to be filed.

Judge Shaw denied a motion for a new trial in the case of Durrell vs. Fra ley. A judgment by default for the plaintiff was granted by Judge Van Dyke in the case of A. d'Artois vs. F. E. Lacey, ad ministrator. The suit was brought for the purpose of forming a deed to certain land. An additional 10 days' stay of execu tion was granted by Judge Van Dyke in the case of tbe Milwaukee Furniture company vs. Nightingale. The case of Stoll vs. Dye, a suit to set tle a disputed boundary, was on trial before Judge Van Dyke during the after noon. An application by the Grace M.
