SAN BERNARDINO, March 25.-A
poker game at North Cucamonga this
morning at o'clock was the cause of
shooting and stabbing affair, as a
result of which Augustine Moreno and
Thomas Barrara are in the county hos
pital in this city in a precarious condi-
ton. The former has bullet hole close
to his heart and the latter has several
deep knife wounds. The mems injuries
are regarded as very serious and 1t is
probable that both viii die.
The two men, with four other MeXi-
cans, were playing cards, when Barrara
said he believed he was getting the
worst of it through the trickery of the
other players. Suddenly he whipped
out a pistol and began to blaze away at
the other players, putting the bullet
through Moreno.
Most of the other players got beneath
the table, while Moreno whipped out a
large knife and sprang upon Barrara
and began welding the knife with tell
ing effect. The latter started to run,
but the knife caught him in the back
and he fell to the floor Moreno pounc-
ing on him and continuing to WELD the
knife.
Deputy Sheriff Williams took the two
wounded men in charge and also three
witnesses to the fight. Benecia Sofa,
Estro Weizer and Francisco Salbres,
who will be detained until the condition
of the wounded men can he determined.
May Be Another Tragedy
N. Vader. for many years pronli-
nent mining man of this county, lies
at deaths door at his Victorville home,
his wife is badly injured, and Fred Sib-
son, alias Simpson, is in the county jail
charged with inflicting their injuries by
attempting to murder them. Vader is
| rs years of age and his wife is but 81.
The man accused of the crime is al
legged to have attempted to pay some
attentions to Mrs. Vader, who turned
him away. Late Friday night Sibson
is alleged to have forced his way into
the Vader home by prying open win
dow with a miners pick. He made a
vicious attack on Vader, who was
| partially knocked senseless, and Wher
| Mrs Vader came to her husbands res
| cue she also received a knockout blow
When Sibson left the aged man and his
wife both were unconscious. He Wen'
at once to his hotel and retired.
The condition of the Vaders was dis
covered in the morning and Deputy
| Sheriff Dolch was soon on SibSon
trail. At first Sibson denied all knowl'
edge of the affair. and only admitted
having been at the Vader home, bu
his bloody shirt was later pulled from
q drawer where he had hidden it. H'
will be charged with attempted murder
The interior of the room where th'
battle occurred resembled a slaughter
house, blood being despatched in every
direction. Vader has six holes in hii
head and is otherwise cut and bruised

SAN PEDRO, March 25.-It was a
great disappointment to the people OF
San Pedro this morning to read in Ihe
Herald that action on the building or
| Notifications for this place had been
turned down by the authorities in
Washington.
Many plans had been made for these
works and it was expected that they
would help the town in improvements
| and in attrac citing sight-seers great
deal.
With from thirty to fifty merchant
vessels lying peacefully here and other
shipping interests of great Importance
totally unprotected, one small gunboat
could sail around Point Firmin and in
an hours time could destroy millions
of dollars worth OF property besides
taking the best harbor and railway ter
minus along this portion of the coast,
1t is argued.
San Pedro, with it's population of
some seven or eight thousand people
could be annihilated in a few hours
and Long Beach with twice that many
people could next be taken and there
would not be an effort made to hinder.
Had the government engineer IN
charge thought wise to recommend the
establishment of a small fort here to
the south of the town where the sea
can be overlooked in every direction,
and which lays in every direction eX-
cept the north, and the work taken up
it would have resulted in vast benefit
10 Southern California besides giving
San Pedro a feeling of safety, say
residents.
There is strong talk of calling mass
meeting to ask the senators and
congressman to take the matter in hand
The large fish, said by many to be
man-eating shark and by others claimed
as a whale, has been finally disposed Of
by being skinned and the hide taken
to Los Angeles, where it will be
mounted. The carcass was towed out
to sea and none to soon for people
who were obliged to work near it.
Thousands of people viewed it while 1t
lay here and thousands came too late
to see it. The pictures taken of it by
both amateurs and professionals VIII
probably fill a box car.
The entering of Raymon D. Sepulveda
into the race for a place on the city
council has set all guessers on the out
come at work again. Mr.. Sepulveda is
one of the oldest residents of San Pedro.
He is a son of the Sepulveda who OBJ
tanned so much land here as grant
from the Mexican government and this
one has held on to a great deal of mis-
property left him by the father. For
years it was worth next TO nothlnS, Dut
now it is very valuable. In his platform,
which he has had published, he stands
for better streets, a better system of
policing the city and improvements at
the ferry landing, also that the city
should own it's own city hall instead
of leasing.
The first and trial trip of a hand

Special to Th Herald
OCEAN PARK, March 25-As a re-
suit of the recent storms an inland sea
has appeared and is rising over the
swampy country back of Short Line
Beach. Other than inConVeniencing
several camps of Mexican graders and
flooding to a depth of from one to three
feet the improvised stables affordng
shelter for their teams, no damage has
or apparently can result.
At Venice, as q precaution against a
recurrence of the conditions following
the previous storm, the canal inlet
pipes were opened at low tide and the
basins allowed to empty into the ocean,
thus allowing plenty of room for drain
age and preventing any chance of an
overflow.
North of Santa Monica the sea was
exceptionally rough last night and
damage is reported all along the beach.
Arch rock famous in the history of
this section and one of the best known
landmarks on the coast, after slowly
disintegrating for many years collapsed
during the storm, leaving two broken
columns standing as silent sentinels
over a mass of debris to tell the story
OF it's destruction.
washout near the "ninety-nine
steps" has prevented the Southern Pa
cific from running any trains to Port
Los Angeles today, but a gang of men
are repairing the damage and, it is
claimed, have the road in condition for
traffic tomorrow.
The failure of all but Mayor Burks
to answer roll call was responsible for
a postponement of the special meeting

POMONA March pa town to be
known as East Pomona will soon be
on the map of Southern California.
The new townsite is being laid out
by gorge E. Hart and a syndicate of
Los Angeles capitalists, who recently
purchased 1000 acres of land in the
vicinity of a small fruit shipping sta
tion known heretofore as Narod, be-
tween Pomona and Ontario on the
Southern Pacific and Salt Lake roads.
Sixty acres of the syndicate's hold
ings will at once be made ready for the
townste and the remainder will be sub
divided into five and ten-acre tracts. A
large force of men has started the work
of grading the townsite and laying out
streets. Later the syndicate proposes
to run excursions from all points to the
new East Pomona and spend consider
able money advertising it's attractions
as a coming agricultural town of this
region.
Mr.. Hart is man of experience in
handling real estate ventures of this
character. He says he has handled
propositions all the way from San
Diego to Fresno and considers this one
of the best fields he has ever become
interested in.

w. H. Schureman, manager of the
Indian Hill Citrus union at North Po-
mona, has just sent out checks to the
growers of the exchange to the amount
of $4,000 as final payment in the
January and February pool.
This pool comprised about $4,000 boxes
of fruit of various qualities and the
| final payments show that the growers
are getting a little over 2 cents a
pound, or $1.40 per box net, although
| the pool was one of the poorest of the
| season.
Mr. Schureman predicts and will GO
on record as saying that the pool of
oranges now going to market will net
| the growers fully 8 cents pound OF
about So per box. The Indian Hill ex-
change still has about 250 carloads OF
| fine fruit under its control.
This season will undoubtedly give the
best returns from citrus fruits of any
season for the past ten years.
