FOR 100000
ARROWHEAD COMPANY EFFECT
ORGANIZATION
Important Step In Development Of
Reservoir and Power Enterprise.
San 6ernardno Realty
Shows Advance
Special to The Herald.

SAN BERNARDINO, Oct. THE
organization of the Arrowhead Reser-
voir and Power company under the
laws of Delaware, with an authorized
capital Of $6,OOO,OOO, is regarded here as
one of the most important develop
ments of the gigantic enterprise that is
now building in the mountains north
of this city, the great Arrowhead reser-
Voir.
Just what the meaning of this latest
move is the officials of the Arrowhead
company in this city refuse to state
until they hear from their superiors i'll
the east, but is generally regarded as
a new company to take over all the
holdings of the old Arrowhead Reser-
voir company. The latter company
was organized away back in the early
nineties when power possibilities of the
great enterprise were not realized. Con-
ditions have changed and now the pos
sibilities of the enterprise are among
it's most important features. The old
company was organized under the laws
Of Kentucky.
When the great storage enterprise is
complete it will make possible one of
the greatest power plants in the entire
great west. The water from the outlet
of the tunnels from the reservoir will
have a sheer drop of several thousand
feet, which will make it possible to
establish power plants and use the
water a number of times for power de-
velopment before it finally reaches the
level of the valley below.
The realty market in San Bernardino
touched a new point this week, when
Third street frontage two blocks from
the business center Of the city sold for
q prn
two years ago was sold for $40 per foot
front. Values in this city are gradually
on the upward grade, testifying to the
general prosperity and growth of the
city which has been very rapid In the
past two years.
The John H. Doyle estate is again
the subject of a contest in the courts
Doyle is the hermit who was murdered
In his cabin in Cajon pass last spring
and whose estate was claimed by one
George r. Jones of Highland. who
claimed to be a cousin of the deceased
and who was appointed temporary adj
ministrator. Archie Doyle of Tennes-
see, who claims to be a brother to the
deceased, today filed request in the
superior court that Public Administra-
tor Wood be named to administer the
estate in place of Jones, whom he dis
claims is a relative to the deceased.
Jones filed claim of $3.50 for services
to the estate, but 1t was cut down to
one-third the figure by the court. The
estate, which was appraised at some
thing like $1,000, is claimed by Jones to
be worth less than $500. One of the
strangest features in connection with
this estate is the sudden disappearance
of the will alleged to have been made
by Doyle, leaving his estate to Martin
Thomas, who afterward committed sui
eide near the Doyle cabin.

Works burned last night. The total loss
Is estimated at $4,000. The foundry
people this morning leased the plant

Fearing to come to trial with the evil
dence against him, Charles Beard to-
day made a hasty exit from the coun-
try and left his bondsmen to settle
with the county.
The strangest part of Boards de-
parture is the fact that money for
his escape was furnished by Mrs.
Louisa Penphrase, mother of the girl
Ida. This morning District Attorney
Evans went before Judge Noyes and
announced that he had reason to be-
lieve that Beard was planning to get
out of the state, and that Mrs. Pen
phrase was said to be aiding him by
attempting to sell her personal effects.
He asked that Boards bond be in
creased from $1,000 to $4,000 and that he
be brought at once into court. The mo-
ton was granted, and Deputy Sheriff
Brown set out to find Beard. He Wis
listed the Penphrase home, where Beard
had been staying since his release from
Jail, and was told by Mrs. Penphrase
that the man was not there. 1t de-
veloped that she had sold all her house
hold goods and other personal effects
and given the money to the man who
had wronged her daughter that he
might escape trial and almost certain
conviction.
