MONROVIA, Jan. 9.-The Monrovla
lodge of odd Fellows gave an elab-
crate banquet last evening at the con-
clusion of their installation of officers.
There was a team from Pasadena
which accompanied the district deputy
grand master, w. II. Dunn, who did the
work of installation. The ritualistic
recitation of the new incumbents was
particularly good and received sincere
compliments from the visitors. The
noble grand who received the honor
last evening was Frank Tripp, and vice
grand Eugene Bosserdet.
An event in the high school debating
league, with which all the leading
schools of Southern California are as
sociated, will be debae between
Downey and Monrovia that will be
given here Friday evening A special
train will be run from DoWney over
the Southern Pacific. The question is,
Resolved, That the United States

Postal Receipts Increase

Postal receipts for the San Bernard
ino postoffice for the year ending De-
cember 81, 1905, continue to show a
substantial increase in the growth of
the office. The year shows q gain of
$2,7S5 over the previous year or 1873 per
cent. The business for the month of
December shows an increase of more
than 30 per cent over the same month
for the previous year, the greatest in
crease for the holiday month the Of
flee has ever shown in a single year.
The charge of unfairness against the
local driving club by certain Riverside
horsemen has considerably aroused the
ire of the members of the club here.
The classification of the horses for the
events was made by the speed COM
mttee and is said to have been made
fairly on the records of the horses as
shown by the club books. The trouble
seems to be that the Riverside horses
were not quite speedy enough to win,
though nearly every event was marked
by nose and nose finishes.
While the members of the high school
basketball teams were out for prac-
tice last evening, having left their
clothes in the dressing room, some one
forced an entrance to the room and
went through the clothes, getting
considerable amount of money and
numerous pieces of jewelry, all
amounting to $50 or more.

able increase in the volume of business
done at the port over that of the pre-
vious month. The number of feet of
lumber for December is trifle
over six millions more than that of the
previous months. The number of
steamers is in excess by twelve, but
there We're not so many schooners by
four In the outward cargoes there
is considerable of an increase also. One
thousand more barrels of oil We're sent
and 1000 tons of salt was loaded here
for northern ports, something that
never went that way before. The num-
Der of passengers fell off, but this is
because there is less travel by water in
the winter months. The amount of
business is greatly in excess of that
of last year for the same month.

1t is expected that prayers for rain
will soon be offered from all the

The same plan already is being carried

Monsignor Harnett stated last even

RIVERSIDE Jan. 9.--The third in a
series of serious accidents occurred at
1880 this morning at the Glenwood
hotel when J. w. Gray sustained q
broken leg in an explosion which blew
Off the top of an underground tank of
crude oil.
Gray is q cripple and is employed at
light work about the hotel This morn
ing he started to build fire of rubbish
back of the hotel on Sixth street. I'm

timbers, several inches of cement and
q layer of macadam is a tank holding
five carloads of crude oil. 1t is believed
that escaping gas must have found its
way through this, and that when the
flame reached the gas the explosion
came.
The reservoir cover was thrown near
" to the top of the three-story build
ing and it is believed that Gray went
nearly as high. He alighted in the
crude oil i'm falling and for a moment
was entirely under the sticky fluid AS
he came to the surface he grabbed a
ladder A rope was placed about his
body ana an attempt was made to
drag him out, but it was found that
a heavy timber pinioned his legs to
the bottom of the tank. The tank was
rapidly filling with water from a brok-
en- main, and it looked for a moment
as if it would fill and drown the man
before he could be gotten out. AS soon
as he was extricated Gray was taken
to the city hospital where physicians
treated him. 1t was found that his
left leg was broken and that he had
sustained internal injuries. 1t is be-
lieved however, that these will not
prove serious.
The grand jury has returned one in
dictment. but it is not known who is
indicted yet. 1t is said that the war;
rant is in the hands of Sheriff Coburn
and that he has been unable to locate
the person indicted.
City Recorder Potter reported to the
trustees today that he tried nineteen
cases in December--twelve for drunk
enness, five for disorderly conduct, one
for selling whisky and one for keep

Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
SAN BERNARDINO, Jan. 9.-It has
leaked out that the resignation of
| County Horticultural Commissioner II
r. Holbrook of Ontario was demanded
by the board of supervisors yesterday
in secret session. If Holbrook refuses
to comply it is understood his place
Will be declared vacant.
This action is in line with the recent
recommendation of the grand jury that
two horticultural commissioners in the
west end of the county is an expensive
method, and that some plan should be
adopted for the cutting down of eX-
penses.
Some time ago the supervisors called
Holbrook to account for the seemingly
eXtravagant expenses of his department
in the west end of the county, which
resulted in the cutting down of his
territory somewhat but the action of
the grand jury has resulted in the de-
manding of the resignation, which
probably means the complete reorgani-
cation of the department throughout
the county.

To Establish a New School

Professor Davis, member of the
faculty of the St. Paul's Episcopal
school at Concord N. H., is reported
to have chosen Pasadena for the loca-
ton of branch to the Concord school.
For several weeks Professor Davis has
been studying several cities of Southern
California in an effort to find the most
desirable place for the experiment
which his school desires to make. He
has consulted with a great many of
the leading members of the Episcopal
church and laid his plans before them.
1t is now stated that the gentleman
has virtually agreed to purchase for
the purpose named a tract of fifteen
acres of land lying just east of the
city near the Senator Dorsey property.
Here, if present plans do not fail will
be located the necessary buildings of
the school.
The st. Paul school is a well known
and popular preparatory school or
academy for boys, and the Pasadena
branch will be like it in every par
ticular. 1t will be designed primarily
Tor eastern boys too frail to stand the
