VERY CREDITABLE
SUPERVISOR LORD BOWLS UP AND DRAWS ATTENTION.
He Gets the Worst of an Argument and the Police Have to Raid the Crow. Very Amusing Indeed.
W. Lord is one of the county supervisors, and the right hand bower of Czar Victor, but Mr. Lord has got the best of Victor, as after hours of labor (?) on the board he has a sufficient amount of the $8.00 per day to go off and get on a small sized "jag". -Of course that is Lord's business, as he has a perfect right to do as he wishes, but then, for a supervisor of such moral (?) and economical (?) views as the present board pretends to espouse, he should not do as he does. On Saturday night, Lord proceeded to juice up, and after the industrial army had held their mass meeting, Lord proceeded to give out his views on the labor question, much to the displeasure of a large number of people present. That his remarks were bot very well appreciated was illustrated by the answer he got from Charley Hackney, the young blacksmith. Charley gave it to Lord straight from the shoulder and in such terms and surrounded by such proof that the latter could not well get around it. He informed the distinguished (?) representative of the county from Cucamonga that although he was sitting in an easy chair, getting $8.00 per day, he would not give a two-bit piece to a poor man. Of course Lord could not deny the allegation, but in a mumbling tone he was trying to make some retort when Marshal Ralphs broke up the meeting. The crows was to a man with Hackney, as he was dealing in cold facts that no one could dispute.

It is learned that the name of the woman who so unmercifully flogged her adopted daughter with a cowhide, news of which was published in this paper yesterday, is hicks, living on Colton Avenue, west near the city limits. Maud Hackney, aged 13, is the victim. Such fiendish proceeding deserves punishment to the extent of the law. The poor girl's brother was proceeding to avenge her injuries by giving a drubbing to young Hicks who helped in the whipping, when he was prevented by bystanders. It was a case where the law was honored in the breach.

Cruel if True
A report was circulated here Wednesday that a woman living in Old San Bernardino had brutally beaten an adopted daughter. It soon spread, and Thursday afternoon Charles Hackney, the blacksmith, who works for his father on Third street near F, attacked a fellow named Leedom, adopted by Mrs. Hicks of Old San Bernardino, on the grounds that it was his (Hackney's) sister who had been whipped by Mrs. Hicks, Leeds holding the girl while the whip was applied. Officers interfered before hackney had a chance to deliver the punishment deserved, to the regret of all who were present.
The story is that Mrs. Hicks adopted the girl some twelve years ago. She is a daughter of John Hackney of this city. Report states that she has been misused and ill treated, and that Leedom held her last Wednesday night while she was whipped. Mrs. Hicks has been arrested and the trial will take place Monday. It would be a shame that such inhumanity should be practiced in our county, and it is to be hoped that at the trial it will be found a milder case than at first reported.

Last week a fellow named Leedom, an adopted son of Mrs. Hicks of Old San Bernardino, who had been accused of holding a young girl, daughter of John Hackney of this city, while she was punished by Mrs. Hicks, was attacked by Charles hackney on Third street. The police interloped and stopped the fight. Last Monday, Leeds went into the shop of Hackney and attacked young Charles, but was knocked down some six times. Having enough he left. Both parties were arrested and had their trial Wednesday morning before Judge Peck, both being discharged. Public sentiment is is favor of Hackney and the general regret seems to be that he didn't club Leedom as he deserved.

Excerpt from: HE WANTED A WARMER COAT
A Man Attempts to Steal an Overcoat and a Pair of Pants From a Gambling Joint
Still the Hobos Come - The Recorder's Court Was Full of Them Yesterday.
A hobo attempted to steal an overcoat and a pair of pants last night from the gambling joint kept by George Smith, or "Smithy," as he is better known, on Third street, west of the motor depot. The garments were hanging in a closet in one end of the joint and the would-be thief pulled the door open and carried them away. Smith was in another room at the time, but heard the closet door open and when he went to investigate found that the clothing was gone. He ran out on the street and saw the thief making off with the property and immediately gave chase. Charles Hackney and a man named Henderson happened to be passing in a buggy and joined in pursuit and succeeded in heading the man off at the corner of First and G streets, where he was captured by Smith. Smith says that the man came back with him willingly enough until he was nearly in front of the Bee Hive grocery, when he again tried to get away, but was unsuccessful. However, the thief's story is a little different and is backed up by several of the bystanders. He says that as soon as they came into Third street and began to meet people, Smith began to beat him with his fists, and at last threw him down. Whichever is true, a disturbance was created that would have done credit to a steam calliope, and brought the police on a run and attracted several hundred people. The police locked the man up until he can have a hearing.
Hobos continue to be numerous and the police receive complaints from all quarters of their causing disturbances.
A large gang of them was reported to have camped on B street north of town last night, but upon going to investigate Constables Whaley and Eubanks were unable to find them, as they had moved their camping places.

A Remarkable Boy
Charles Hackney, the Third street farrier, is the father of a remarkable boy, Raymond Hackney. The boy is but eight years of age, yet he can put many a man to shame when the fire alarm bell sounds its warning notes. His home is about six blocks, almost one mile, distant from the Fire Department headquarters. On various occasions of late, when the bell rang at night he would be the first one to awake, then quick as a flash he will awake his father, who is assistant foreman of the department. He counts the taps of the bell in order to ascertain the number of the box, and then when the father is ready to start from the house on his bicycle Raymond will tell him the number, as well as the location of the box, which invariably proves to be correct.

Excerpt from: CHARLES E. HACKNEY DIED THIS MORNING
Charles E. Hackney died at 8:30 this morning at the Marlborough hospital after making a brave battle, lasting two weeks, against the effects of blood poisoning which appeared in his system following the operation which he submitted to for appendicitis. From the first the physicians had but little hope to extend to the bereaved family, as the operation was performed just 36 hours too late.
Fifteen days ago Charles Hackney was blessed with health and strength and was attending his duties at the blacksmith shop conducted by himself and father at the northwest corner of Third and F streets. A day later he was taken suddenly ill as he was about to sit down for supper, and complained of intense pain. Physicians were summoned and the following day he was removed to the hospital, as an operation was deemed necessary. The result developed that the work of appendicitis was far advanced, and the operating physician exclaimed to the relatives, "I fear we have worked just 36 hours too late." But for all his handicap, the patient's wonderful vitality came to his assistance and he rallied from the shock of the operation admirably. Then followed days of watching: it was a fight for life seldom witnessed. Night and day physicians and nurses were in constant attendance. There were days when the shadow of death lifted perceptibly and the attendants were encouraged to extend hope.
Thursday morning symptoms of blood poisoning were evident and a few hours later the patient commenced to sink. Toward evening there was a brave rally, but as night closed, delirium followed, and it was then known that death was not many hours off. The family was summoned and remained by the dying man's bedside until the end, which was ushered in with a quiet repose, during which Charles E. Hackney passed peacefully through the portals into the world beyond.
News of his death was sent to the fire department, over which he had been chief since the first of last June, and the sad intelligence was tolled to the community at large, carrying grief into hundreds of homes, where the decedent was known for his sterling worth and love. The tidings came as a shock to the public, as it had been understood that the decent had passed beyond the point of danger and was rapidly recovering.
Charles E. Hackney was born in San Luis Obispo county February 7, 1871. He removed to this section some years later and 14 years ago was married at Grapeland, this county, to Miss May Perdew, who with three children, two sons, aged 13 years and 5 months, respectively, and a daughter, 11 years of age, survive him.
He became a member of the fire department January 11, 1898, and during all his membership showed marked ability, and when the occasion required, he was one of the first to face impending perils to save life or property. This gained him an enviable distinction with the members of the department and the townspeople, and when the last election of a chief was before his department his unanimous selection was made.
Since taking charge he has inaugurated many substantial improvements, placing the department on a basis which makes it one of the strongest of its kind in the state.
Since his illness, Miss Adelaide Hackney, a sister, who had been engaged as a trained nurse at San Diego, has been constantly with him, and every effort known to the science of medicine was employed to save his life and alleviate his sufferings.

CHARLES E. HACKNEY A VICTIM OF BLOOD POISONING
Supposed to be Recovering When Reports of Sudden Passing Come - Going Into Death Valley After a Supposed Golden Treasure
SAN BERNARDINO, Nov. 27 - Charles E. Hackney, chief of the city fire department, died this morning at the Marlborough Hospital after an illness of two weeks. Death was directly due to blood poisoning from an operation performed two weeks ago for appendicitis. His demise came as a shock to the community, as it was supposed that he was on the road to recovery, reports emanating from the hospital the past four days having been of the most favorable nature. Last evening the patient begun sinking, and becoming delirious, remained unconscious until the end. The funeral service will be held Sunday at the late residence, No. 624 Fourth street, the members of the fire department, civic bodies and lodges attending.
Mr. Hackney was born in San Luis Obispo thirty-two years ago. Fourteen years ago he was married to Miss May Perdew (Perdew) of Grapeland, this county, who with three children, two sons and a daughter, survive him. His youngest child is but five months old. He was a member of the Native Sons, Foresters, and other organizations, and since June was head of the fire department, having been instrumental in the adoption of many improvements in the service.

Charles E. Hackney, chief of the San Bernardino Fire Department, and whose name has been on the lips of hundreds of his friends and acquaintances since his first illness of two weeks ago, died at the Marlborough Hospital at 8:30 yesterday morning after a fight for life which had wasted his strength for many days. The tolling of the fire bell sent the sad news over the valley shortly after 9 o'clock. The funeral will take place from the late residence, 668 Fifth street, at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. Interment will be in the city cemetery.
The story of Hackney's illness, how he was suddenly taken ill at the super table one evening a little over two weeks ago, how he was taken to the hospital and operated upon for appendicitis, and of the anxious inquiries which were made on every side as to the unfortunate's sufferings during the days when he was in his greatest danger, has already been told in the newspapers.
Then came a time, two days ago when it was thought that the danger point had been passed and that the sufferer would recover. But it was not to be. Thursday morning signs of blood poisoning were apparent and toward evening the sick man became delirious. Realizing what such complications meant in one so weakened, the attending physicians summoned the family. And it was thus, with those dearest to him gathered about his bed that Charles Hackney passed away.
Charles E. Hackney was born in San Luis Obispo county, California, February 7, 1871. Fourteen years ago he came to Southern California, settling at Grapeland, where he married Miss May Perdew. To them were born three children, two sons and a daughter. Of these the eldest, 13 years and the youngest, 5 months, and the widow survive him.
Shortly after marriage, he moved to this city, where, in partnership with his father, he purchased a blacksmith shop at the northwest corner of Third and F streets. In January, 1898, he joined the San Bernardino Fire Department. So well did he fill his place that at the last election of a chief he was chosen by unanimous vote to fill the place.
The deceased was a member of the Native Sons, and had until a short time ago been affiliated with the Foresters of America. The funeral will be under the auspices of the Fire Department and his brother lodgemen.
