SAN BERNARDINO, Jan. 90.-(Reg-
ular Correspondence) Two gentlemen
from Los Angeles made trip up to the
site of the hotel at the Arrowhead
Springs on the mountain side, returning
Saturday evening and departing for
their home. Their mission, which they
confided in confidence to a friend just
before their departure, was to inspect
the site of the burned hotel with view
Of rebuilding upon a more magnificent
scale and make of the springs an ele-
CANT resort, not alone for sick people
but for tourists. The mud baths for
rheumatism and other ailments Will be
available, but the main idea is to make
of it place where the tourist can enjoy
a month of winter or summer weather In
| perfect paradise. 1t is proposed to do
away with the old time stage as means
Of ascending the tiresome grade and re-
place it with an electric railway. The
| projectors of the plan state that work
| will be commenced in few weeks.
! The latest news from Dale City Is very
unfavorable to the future of that camp.
| There Is gold enough, but there is no
mill to work up the ore. The Baird mill
was failure and the men working for
Baird are wondering where their wages
will come from. 1t is reported that
Board is making an effort to unload his
property on a syndicate.

ers waiting, however, a favorable oppor-
tunity to realize before making the rich
ness Of the find unknown. That time
has now come, and in conversation to-
day with one of the interested parties the
writer was informed that the claims are
very rich and the owners are about to
sell at a very high figure to capitalists
who have been making an expert exami-
nation of the ground apd Will secure all
the claims available and put in pla1t
that will astonish those who have been
