"The Parable of the Fig Tree was
the topic of Evangelist Bulgin yester-

The remedy. the speaker declared, is in
the life entirely surrendered to God.

Special to The Herald.
SAN BERNARDINo, Aug. 7.--worlx
has been begun on the new big we'll for
the municipal water works system and
when It is completed the city will have
the finest and deepest we'll in the entire
valley and an inexhaustible supply of
water.
The well will be fifteen inches in
diameter, the largest In this part of the
state, and will tap the lower water
strata, which is tapped SO far as known
by but one well in the valley. The
difficulty in reaching this strata has
been In the past that 1t Is covered by
strata as hard as rock, a cement for
nation, at which all well drillers balk
when they reach It. The city purposes
to go through this cement formation to
the lower water level.
The present water supply is sufficient
for the citys needs but at times runs
low because of the drainage of the
water basin in the valley by the River
side artesian wells. 1t is to overcome
this condition and provide the city with
an, abundant supply that the water
commission is providing this extra well,
which is expected to alone produce as
much as the city's other three wells
combined.
The water commission is also making
a radical change in the manner of
handling the water system, and as
rapidly as the finances will permit
meters will be installed all over the
city. This is expected to work a great
saving in the water. The policy will
also be to lower the water rates.

SALT0N SEA REACHES
ITS HIGHEST LEVEL
Southern Pacific Officials Anticipate
No More Trouble at
Inland Sink

Officials of the Southern Pacific road
are now Of the belief that the salton
sea has reached what is practically its
highest level and that within the next
few days It will begin to recede. It's
tributaries then Will have been cut off
and the evaporation, due to the terri
BILE heat of the desert, is exceedingly
rapid.
The sea has increased It's level by
one and three-quarter inches in the
past three days. It's depth Is now 16s
inches. Epes Randolph, president of
the California Development company,
Is responsible for the statement that
his company in the next four weeks
will have completed the dam across
the irrigation intake opening into the
Colorado river, which has been large
ly responsible for the creation Of the
big lake in the Salton sink.
In spite of the emphatic statements
of Southern Pacific officials to the ef-
feet that all danger to their property
Is now past, work is still progressing
in the frightening of the detour around
Salton. The extension, upon which 15o
men and two steam shovels are now
at work, is nearly six miles in length.
1t is believed that the railroad company
has decided to take no further chances
and that the detour will be made sew
enteen miles in length. On its COM
pletion, traffic through salton will be
discontinued.
