SAN BERNARDINO

SAN BERNARDINO, Nov. 4.-(Reg-
ular Corespondence.) Fred Elliott.
whose terrible death was mentioned
yesterday, had resided here for some
time and been in California for eight
years. He was brother-in-law of Bert
Osbun, conductor on the Redlands
motor, and, being out of work, told Os-
bun he would try Phoenix, going by the
brakebeam route, as his funds were low.
He climbed on top of the a. m. freight
going east UP the Cajon pass, and, lying
down, went to sleep. The next thing he
knew he was under the wheels. One
leg was cut off completely just above
the knee and the other had the foot
crushed. It was raining at the time, and
to get shelter as far as possible the
wounded man dragged himself to tree,
picking up his amputated leg and taking
it with him, and was discovered by an
extra engine and caboose that was COM
ing down the pass three hours later,
by which he was brought to the city, still
clinging to the leg that was cut off.
The new remedy for consumption.
"Oxytuberculine," recently announced
to the world by DR.. Hirschfelder of San
Francisco, has been given successful
trial in this city. DR.. Aldridge of San
Bernardino was a student under the
great discoverer from 1882 to 1884, while
attending the Cooper medical college
of San Francisco, and was given sam
pie Of the new remedy several months
ago, at his request, to try it on patient.
The result was wonderful in the two
months treatment given the patient.
DIR. Aldridge has recommended to the
board of health an early application for
a supply of the remedy as he thinks
there are many cases that could be
treated to advantage by it.
There is a loud call from the Virginia
Dale mining district for better roads. as
the means of getting from the mines to
the town of Dale City Is very poor. The
roads are full of short curves and heap
ed with boulders. An appeal will be
made to the board of supervisors for
relief in that line, as the men most in
terested are too busy booming their
claims to lend a hand, although they
affirm that $3.50 to $500 would put the
roads around there IN good, passable
trim.

| The public library and reading room
has made a change Of time of opening
and closing by cutting off half an hour
in the evening and putting it on in th'
afternoon, closing at 4:30 and $3.50, in
stead of and as formerly. This drives
out the young men in the evening to tbs
saloons perhaps more than the old way
A better plan would have been to make
the evening closing at 10 o'clock.

chased him through the brush, where ne
remained four days without food OF

A year ago the daily receipts of hobos
at the county Jail ranged from ten TO
twice that many, while practically none

The indications are that several res
idents and property owners IN the south
part Of the city, where the new sewer
system has just been completed, Will
contest the payment Of the assessment
for the work. The trouble arises from
the fact that some owners, who reside
on the edge of the district and who paid
for the old sewers, have been assessed
to put in the new system, While tney
have no use for the new system. tney
having their premises connected with
the old one. Another cause for dissatis-
faction Is that the work was done under
the plan which assesses the cost TO
abutters, in which case the corner lot
owner has to pay about three times
what his neighbor does who happens to
be in the middle of the block.
