are rejoicing over the abundance of
water now running in City creek. From
1900 to 1900 inches is now the amount
estimated. This is more than has been

twenty inches was reported in the
stream. Growers are now able to rent
water for irrigation at greatly reduced
rates.
Members of the chamber of commerce
are making renewed efforts to induce
the county authorities to construct the
bridge across the Santa Ana wash be-
tween Highland and Redlands. During
all the rainy season the road has been
in a dangerous condition, number of
people having barely escaped drowning
While driving across. f. 7. Perris, the

the major part of his months salary
which he had just received.
Another robbery has just leaked out.
