BUILDING PERMITS SHOW
SAN DIEGO Is GROWING
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
SAN DIEGO, Aug. 31.-The growth
of the city is shown, in part at least,
by the number and amount of the
building permits issued by the board
of public works. Thus far this year
the permits have amounted to S773,645,
nearly seven times as much as in the
entire year of 1901. Building has been
active for the past three years. In
1903 there were 265 permits; in 1904,
461, and thus far this year 466.
The county tax rate is to be fixed by
the board of supervisors at the Sep
tember session. Ten school districts
have asked that special school taxes be
levied in their districts at the same
time.
Fire Chief A. B. Cairnes will leave
Monday on a thirty days leave of alb
sence. He will visit various cities of
the Pacific coast and particularly
Portland, where the fire chiefs of the
Pacific coast will hold a convention.
Fire Commissioner George Harrison
will be acting chief during the month.

SANTA BARBARA, Aug. 31.-The
home place of Mrs. Frances Broome in
this city, which a few years ago, after
the death of the late William Broome,
was appraised at $12,50O, was yesterday
sold for less than $500 to satisfy street
assessment lien held by w. H. Nc
Caleb, who bought the property in. His
valued at more than a quarter of mil
lion, and it was no lack of funds but
simply an aversion to the processes of
law that prevented Mrs. Broome from
buying the property in herself. She will
probably buy it later, however, to
satisfy the other claimants of the estate.

Special to The Herald.
SAN BERNARDINo, Aug. S1.-The
forest fire tonight broke out afresh
near the top of the mountain range
northwest of the city, the fire eating
into the heavy timber district. 1t was
thought today to be under control and
the ranger and other fire fighters be-
lieved their work to be at an end, but
late in the afternoon, famed by the
stiff west wind, the flames broke out
anew and tonight they are burning
fiercely. The Mexicans who were sent
to the mountains, in response to the
appeal of Chief Ranger Tortensen for
help, refused to work on arriving there
and walked back to the city. The por-
ton of the fire that was working down
in Devil canyon is extinguished, but the
fire at the crest has added a new dan
ger that, 1t is feared, will do great
damage in the timber. The mouth of
Reche canyon south of the city was
the scene of a serious brush fire for
three hours today, but was extin-
guished without any great damage
having been done.
Dan Weeks has been severely injured
by a shell bursting in his gun while
out rabbit shooting. Splinters from
the shell flew into his eye, making it a
grave question as to whether his sight
can be preserved.
A shake-up has been in progress
among the train service employees of
the Santa Fe on this division during the
past two or. three weeks, with the result
that numerous ones have been dropped
from the pay roll.
The hot weather continues. The ther-
mometer during the past five days has
ranged from 1O4 to 10S, and today is
nearly as hot. There have been but
few prostrations. Many people have
left for the coast or the mountains.

VENTURA, Aug. 31.-A careful and
conservative investigation of the gen.
eral condition of affairs throughout
Ventura county at the present time
shows more prosperity, taking the
country as a whole, than at any time
in the past twelve years.
The first crop to be harvested was
hay, which turned out well and fetched
a good price. Apricots, which, in the
early part of the season gave little
encouragement to the orchardist, made
a good crop and the price for dried
fruit had advanced to TIC, with an up
ward tendency. Berries were good
yield and Saticoy strawberries still
continue in the market. Watermelons
are excellent, both in size and quality.
The honey crop is heavy, with fair
price offered. Walnuts in most places
are short, but are coming out much
better than ives expected earlier in the
season. The sugar beet crop is a rec
ord breaker, the yield being heavy and
the percentage OF sdccndrlHe laIlei
running high. The lima bean harvest
has just commenced in the eastern por-
ton of the county. Near the coast the
crop is late, but the stand is excellent
and the pods are filling well. Corn
throughout the country is looking well
and the acreage is comparatively large.
Peaches are fair crop, with prices
high. Apples and grapes are yet to be
heard from.

utter a word, they testified, either after
he was shot or before, and only one saw
him slightly Keeling out OF the saloon into
a small hall.
Joseph Schmidt, who was talking to Kos

Friday morning that Rollins came in with

Koslowski fred a shot into the ceiling;
that then Rollins drew a revolver and

shot he went to the phone, called up Cap

he did not step out from behind the bar
at all after the shooting. All the negroes

Thursday her rent expired and
she was not allowed to stay any
longer. She had not a cent to
her name So, not knowingNwhat to do, she
went down to the railroad station to get
a place to sleep, thinking thus to escape
observation. After all the trains for the
night had gone the Waterman at the sta
ton asked her what she was waiting for

story. He persuaded her to go to the po-
lice station, where she was given quarters
in the matron's department. She is full
of faith in the man who has left her alone
and will not believe that he intends to
desert her shamelessly. But the officers,
whose experience with such fellows has
taught them what to expect, think the
chance is very small that she will ever see
Hustled again.
