We've Got a Telephone.

We've got a telephone at last;
And wife is quite content.
She says the news comes in so fast
She hasn't spent cent
For literature of any kind
She hears the neighbors tell
So much of things that're going on.
She listens for that bell,
And, when some one begins to talk,
She takes receiver down,
And then she knows how everything
Is going on in town.
I'd like to use the phone sometimes
And get the price of grain,
And call the Weather Bureau up,
And learn when it will rain.
But all the women on our line
Have got so much to say,
wait and wait, while other men
Are drawing in their hay.
And when / say a word or two
And wish that telephone
Was anywhere but in my house,
Or I'd line alone.

Indians Reported as Causing Great

Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
SAN BERNARDINO, Aug. II. -
Further reports that hundreds of thou
sands of fish are dying in the mountain
streams this summer because of low
water come from the mountain dis
tricts, especially the streams on the
desert side of the mountains. Police
man Bert Nee of this city is in from
the Little Mojave river and says that
enormous quantities of the f1nny tribe
are dying in that stream and are being
eaten by the wild animals there. He
and members of his party caught all
they wanted for eating by simply pick
ing them out of the pools by hand, they
having been stranded by the low water,
The killing of game by the Indians in
the vicinity of Bear valley still goes on,
according to reports brought in by w.
L. Brown. He states that the red men
kill not only bucks but does and even
spotted fawns. Mining men told him
that they saw a small party of Indians
recently with sixty deer hides, many of
them being does. 1t is estimated by
people living there that the Indians
have in recent years killed fully 500
deer in that section of the country.
Steps are being taken to stop the
slaughter, if there is any way by which
it can be done.

ANNEXATION CARRIES

EXCEPTIONALLY HEAVY VOTE

Bitter Opposition by Inhabitants of

LONG BEACH, Aug. 17.--In the cleo
ton held today to determine whether
the Carroll Park district and long
strip of ocean frontage should be an
neXed to this city the affirmative car
ried the day overwhelmingly 429 votes
being cast for the proposition to 13G
against it. In the outside districts 2e
votes were cast for and against it.
The number of votes cast was unusually
large, both sides working hard through
out the day.
The principal objection raised to the
annexation was that the Naples boule-
ward proposed to be improved by the
county, following the highway COM
missions recommendations, lies within
the territory and that the county could
not improve it if it became part of a
municipality.
Mayor Windham, on the other hand,
has asserted that the city would i'm
prove the boulevard If the election
carried.
Those people living east of the city
who have cherished the idea of the in
corporation of a separate city, BEL
mont Heights" have been bitterly op-
posed to the proposition to annex, be-
cause the ocean frontage included was
the same beach which they desired to
make a part of the proposed new in
corporation.
The council recently called another
election on the question of taking in
the Carroll Park district alone, this
election to be held in case today's cleo
tion failed to carry.

lieves, is somewhere in Southern Cali
fornia. Miller had been making in
quiry here for the last two days, and
failing to- find any trace of his missing
daughter had started to walk to Los

transportation.

Residents of the neighborhood have
been strenuously objecting to the insti-
tuition, which at present contains only
two patients. They charge that it is a
menace to the locality, although it is
quite isolated. The only feature of this
side which the county health officer 5
report mentions is that the ground sur
rounding the camp slopes toward wells
supplying water for domestic purposes,
which might in time become infected.
The health officer recommends a more
lavish use of antiseptice on the premises
and regulations forbidding patients to
leave the grounds. In the past resi-
dents of the neighborhood have COM
planned that the patients some times
asked to ride in the wagons of their
neighbors, which they consider a source
of danger
The camp was established by John
Wadsworth, S. Hazard Halstead and a
number of other prominent business
men.

SOUTH PASADENA BENT ON
IMPROVING WATER SUPPLY
Special TO The Herald.


PASADENA, Aug. 17.-Aroused to
the necessity of giving themselves bet
ter fire protection and water supply,
residents of South Pasadena have called
a mass meeting for August 27, at which
every aspect of the situation will be
discussed carefully.
South Pasadena is largely dependent
upon the water companies of Pasadena,
and at present they are not able to give
a service that is adequate. When their
properties have been acquired and de-
veloped by the city, the situation may
be relieved. South Pasadenans are in
clined to think that they would prefer
a water supply of their own, however,
if they can secure one. The plan most
talked of is the sinking of well on one
of the hills west Of the city.
The list of speakers will be long one,
but has not yet been fully prepared. A
band will be present to add to the en-
thusiasm.
Sewers and parks, in both of which
South Pasadena is deficient. will also
be discussed at the mass meeting, and
a bond election to remedy all these con-
ditions at one time probably lin be
favored.

Opinions Gathered Thus Far Are
Strongly in Favor of Municipalizing
Water Supply and Improving
Tournament Park
Special to The Herald.

Special 70 Ihe Herald.
PASADENA, Aug. 17.-Officials of the
board of trade are disappointed at the
returns from their postal card vote on
the bond election. They have written
all of their members asking whether
they favor the proposition to be voted
on, but so far only half have replied.
The matter is important, because the
board of trade wishes to take active
charge of the campaign for the bonds
If its members favor it. The votes in
favor of municipal water are now 235,
against 19, and those in favor of the
improvement of Tournament park 219,
against 80. If this ratio is maintained
it will be highly satisfactory, but It
represents only a small part of the total
membership of 700. The officials are at
a loss TO know what to do.
The directors will meet at 4:90 tomor-
row to discuss this question, and will
try to find some means of bringing out
the entire membership. Plans for en-
tertaining the visiting delegates of the
insurance convention also will be dis
cussed.

pecial to The Herald.
PASADENA, Aug. 17.-At last the
city council will have a chance to air
its mind on the controversy over the
plumbing in the high and Mckinley
schools, which Plumbing Inspector
Shaver has condemned and the board
of education refuses to remove.
IT probably will call a private meet
ing of the council tomorrow morning
and lay the matter before them," said
Mayor Farley this afternoon. Il do
not know whether the case will come
up before the public meeting or not.
That will be for. them to decide.
II have made a very careful lnvesti-
cation of the situation" the mayor
continued, "and will lay the results of
it before the council tomorrow. Until
then 1 do not feel at liberty to say
what my conclusions are
Mayor Farley also refused to discuss
what action was possible. 1t is prob
able that the only help the council
could give would be to repeal the ordi-
nance which forbids plumbing of the
type now in use in the two schools,
and this would be backward step In
sanitation which Inspector Shaver says
would disgrace the city all over the
United States.
HAS the DOaru OF eCucdIlOn any
means of raising the money ($3OOO)
necessary to change the plumbing?'
the mayor was asked.
Not that know Of" he replied.
DR.. Stanley p. Black, city health Off
Ger, this afternoon gave out a state
ment in which he severely condemns
the disputed plumbing, from the stand
point of health.
Il found the plumbing in :. most Of
fensive and deplorable condition" he
says. "It can only be made sanitary
by tearing it out completely and in
stalling modern fixtures"
In a report to the board of education
three years ago DR.. Black said 1t would
be necessary to keep the stack heater
at the high school burning night and
day in order to create enough ventila-
tion to make the premises sanitary.
This recommendation was never COM
piled with, the doctor says, and when
he spoke to the janitor about it the lat
ter said he had been ordered not to
light it because of the expense.
The whole question is apparently one
of money, and If the council tomorrow
can suggest some means of raising this
the board of education will be delighted
to escape from its present emharrass-
ing position.
