Railroad Economy

The economy practiced upon the
Great Northern Railroad is well
known among railroad men, one of
the stanchiest believers in the old
saying that Economy is the road to
wealth" being the president, j. j.
Hill. The story is told in the West
that upon one occasion when Presi-
dent Hill was looking over a piece of
track he found new railroad spike.
Taking it to the boss in charge of that
stretch of road, he handed it to him
and said: "Tou must be more care
full. Nothing must be wasted. Pick
up all your spikes as You go along"
"Why, Mr.. HILL" replied The "boss"
promptly, "I've been payin' man

PATROLMAN SWEARS
MAN SOBER; TOLD TO
CHARGE iNEBRIATION
Court Orders Policeman to Accuse
Prisoner of Drunkenness-Latte
Had Been Arrested for Sup-
posed Petty Larceny

Patrolman Harry Henderson was
placed in a peculiar predicament in Po-
lice Justice Frederickson's court yes
terday morning when after swearing
that P. r. Wells, whom he had arrested
for stealing a cheap shoe brush, was
not drunk, was told by the justice to
file a charge Of drunkenness against the
prisoner.
Wells, when arraigned on charge of
petty larceny, declared he knew moth
ing about the brush, because he had
imbibed a quantity of alcohol, some
whisky and numerous glasses of beer,
and was too drunk to know anything
when arrested.
The justice then asked Patrolman
Henderson if the accused was drunk
when arrested. Henderson replied pos
itively the man was not drunk. Then
it developed that friend of Wells had
placed the brush in his pocket for a
joke.
The case of petty larceny was dis
missed and Henderson was instructed
to file charge of drunk against Wells.
Henderson protested that Wells was
not drunk, and the latter emphatically
insisted that he was drunk.
Henderson was in a dilemma He
had sworn the man was not drunk, and
now he had been told to swear to a
complaint charging Wells with being
intoxicated. He thought 1t over and
finally extricated himself by persuad-
ing the justice to discharge Wells.

drank several swallows of the oil and
at once was seized with convulsions.
The other children ran away in fright,
and George Brunswick, driver OF an
express wagon, who was passing, hear

assistance and, seeing she was in
agony, placed her in his wagon and
started his horse at a gallop for the
nearest physician. Before he had gone
two blocks the child expired. The body
was taken to the undertaking estab-
lishment of w. H. Sutch, where the

HOPES TO END
ITALIAN STRIKE
LUMBER COMPANY PRESIDENT
WOULD ARBlTRATE
SITUATION AT MccLoUD NEARs
NORMAL CONDITION
Strikers Agree to Accept Arbitration
If Leaders Now Under Arrest
Are Given Their
Freedom
[Rv Associated Press.l

McCLOUD, June 5.-Steps were TAX
en- today looking to settlement of
the strike at the plant of the McCloud
River Lumber company. President
John H. Queale of the company agreed
to submit the matters in dispute be-
tween the company and the striking
Italian laborers to an arbitration COM
mittee.
At a meeting of the strikers 1t was
decided to accept arbitration only on
condition that their leaders now under
arrest be released and permitted to
leave the camp.
With the arrival of italian Consul
General Rocca from San Francisco to-
morrow it is believed a settlement OF
the trouble will be effected quickly.
The strikers seem disposed to follow
his advice and the lumber company
officials are ready to accept a fair ad-
justment of the difficulty and resume
operations in all departments.
At present only the box factory and
the planning mill are being worked.
Governor Gillett today warmly COM
mended Carlo del Pine, editor OF La
Voca del Populo in Ean Francisco, for
his efforts to bring an end to the
trouble, it having been through his in
tercession that the company consented
to arbitrate.
Arrests of the strike leaders were
made today without resistance being
offered and there was no demonstra-
tion on the part of their followers.

A 1000 MILE RACE
TO PLAY ROLE HERE
MISS MARY B0LAND WILL RE-
JOIN DREW CAST
Defies Doctors Warning After Omaha
Operation That She May Open in
"Jack Straw" at Mason
Monday

After Fastening her recovery from a
critical operation by all the arts Of
modern medicine, Miss Mary Boland
will make record-breaking trip from
Omaha in time to play the part of Ethel
Jennings in "Jack Straw" which opens
Monday night at the Mason opera
house here, John Drew being the stellar
attraction.
A telegram from San Francisco to
Manager Wyatt of the Mason yesterday
brought the news of Miss Boland's he
roic attempt to keep her engagement,
despite her serious illness consequent
upon an operation for appendicitis.
Francis E. Reed, business manager for
the John Drew company, who wired
the information, added that Miss Bo
land believes she has entirely recovered
and is confident her strength will bear
her through the performance, despite
the dubious opinions of her physicians
in Omaha.
Miss Boland formerly played with
Francis Wilson in when knights
Were Bold" and with Robert Edeson in
"Strongheart. Miss Helen Freeman,
who was to have played the part of
success in the company's San Fran
cisco engagement, will assume the role
of Rosie Abbott.
"Mr. Fiske's arrangement with the
syndicate in no way binds him to sur
render of the independent principle for
which he has so long contended," de-
clared Manager Griffith, who arrived
with Mrs. Fiske's party yesterday
morning from Salt Lake City. ut is
merely an acceptance of the privilege
of playing in certain syndicate houses
without yielding the right to book with
the Shuberts whenever such action
shall be preferable. The same condition
obtains with the Belasco attractions.
We shall continue to book in any house
which appears to us advantageous as
in the past"
The Fiske party, consisting of the
actress, the cast in Salvation Nell'
and four baggage cars of scenery, came
in on time yesterday. Mrs. Fiske pro-
ceeded at once to the Hotel Leighton,
where a suite of apartments had been
reserved for her. She denied herself
to all callers, having been much ex-
hausted by the long trip across the
desert At particularly sultry stage
of the journey Mrs. Fiske observed that
Nevada seemed an ideal state for the
permanent location of "Hell's Kitchen"
in which famous New York locality the
scenes of Salvation Nell'' are laid.
The opening performance of the play
will be given at the Auditorium Mon

YUCAIPA ACRES
BRING $8OO,OOO
CAPITALISTS BUY IMMENSE
TRACT IN VALLEY
WORK ON NEW RAILROAD WILL
BE FASTENED
Preparations Being Made for Construc-
ton Of Track Through FoothiIl
Section as Far as San
Diego

One of the most important transac-
California for several years was re-
ported yesterday by George w. Hop
kins of this city, who directed nego-
tiations for the transfer of 200 acres
in the heart of the Yucaipa valley for
approximately $8O0,000
The purchasers, who are members Of
syndicate, are M. N. Newmark of the
Newmark Grain company, ]. M. Knee
land of the Pan-American railroad in
Mexico, G. A. Atwood of San Bernar-
dino and several capitalists residing
near Redlands. Mr.. Hopkins had been
working assiduously on the deal for
nearly two years.
The property begins at a point about
half mile from the city limits of Red
lands and extends easterly to the foot
hills. Included in the purchased area
is small valley-like section with an
elevation of from 1900 to 5000 feet.
All of the land has been under culti-
walton in various degrees and by many
methods for the last forty years. 1t is
declared that it is the only valley in
Southern California which has never
experienced failure of crops. The soil
is adapted to fruit growing, and apples
and cherries are among the foremost
products
In this region the firm of Peters e.
Evans of Riverside has a 7-year-old
apple orchard. The fruit produced on it
last year netted the growers $3.50 an
acre. Andrews Bros. also have an or
chard in the same locality, called
Cherrycroft 1t consists of forty-fiVe
acres, all set to cherries, and is con-
sidered one of the most important in
this part of the state.
Plans for Railroad
The purchase of the land will bring
about the early completion of the Red
lands, Yucaipa Valley & Oak Glen
railroad, one mile of track having al
ready been laid. The line will pass
through Yucaipa valley to the Yucaipa
City townsite, nine miles from Red
lands. This will be the first division Of
the road. From this point it will run
due south to San Jacinto and Hemet,
and eventually through the foothill val
ley as far as San Diego. This will bring
| San Jacinto and Hemet in closer COM
munication with Redlands. The road
will be of standard gauge and provided
with facilities for passenger and freight
traffic, carrying both from Yucaipa val
| ley to the Southern Pacific overland
| line.
! Among the parcels transferred is the
Dunlap ranch of 3S40 acres, which had
! been owned by the Dunlap family since
1868. The price paid for it was $350,000.
The Houghton land McNee ranch of
| 5000 acres was bought for 100000. An
other smaller tract makes up the entire
amount of land involved in the deal.
The papers conveying the Dunlap prop
erty were signed a week ago, and sig
natures were affixed to the deeds FOR
the other property yesterday.

TIRE EXPLODES WHEN
DURABILITY EXTOLLED
DRIVER OF PATROL AUT0M0-
BILE is DECEIVED
Says Rubber Appliance Had Travelled
$4,000 Miles and Was Good for
Many More, but Praise Was
Given Too Hastily

Just mention something about the
life of an automobile tire to Patrolman
Shriner. who drives the University sta
ton patrol automobile, and the result
will be startling. If nothing happens,
it will be because of peculiar condi-
tions.
Yesterday Shriner drove the big mo-
tor car to the central police station to
take an insane prisoner to the county
hospital for observation. He was
ready to crank the auto, preparatory
to starting on the trip, when by
stander remarked that the patrol must
wear out tires quickly, and asked how
long tires usually lasted.
"Oh, no; this auto is not hard on
the tires" replied Shriner. 'The wear
on them is not as much as on some
of the autos used by private individu-
ais. You sc that left hand front tire?
Well, it's an old one and has travelled
$4,000 miles already and is good for
many more miles"
Hardly had he completed the sem
tence before there was a sharp report,
and tie tire which Shriner referred
to slowly flattened out. 1t had served
it's purpose and it's days of usefulness
were over.
The next hour was passed in waiting
Tor new TIRE anu HItiiS IL a. Pi"cS'
number of persons gathered to wit
ness the operation of replacing the tire.
and numerous questions were asked
regarding the auto. To these questions
Shriner maintained a studied silence,
and when one man asked how much
gasoline was contained in the tank,
Shriner jumped back several feet, as
if he fered it, too, would explode.
Shrine. has made "never again"
resolution, and in the future all in
formation concerning the auto will be
referred to the makers of the motor

SPECIAL SERVICES IN
NEW CHURCH PLANNED
STRUCTURE IN HIGHLAND PARK
COMPLETED
Methodists Erect Handsome Pernna-
nent Edlfice to Take Place of Port
able Building Formerly Used
in Suburb

Special services will mark today the
opening of the new handsome Metho-
dist church in Highland Park. The
structure has recently been completed
at a cost of $20,000
The enterprise of the Methodists of
Highland Park is seen in the very at
tractive and commodious editice which
stands on Ash street at the head of
Avenue Fifty-five. This church was
organized April %, 1904, under the
earnest labors of the late Rev. e. o.
McIntire.
The first church building was a port
able frame structure situated on East
Avenue Fifty-six. In 1905 the confer
ence appointed Rev. John A. Jackson
the present pastor, to this charge,
which at that time had ninety MEM
bers. The present membership is about
300.
The rapid growth of Highland Park
soon made it evident the portable struc-
ture would be inadequate to the needs
of the young church. The pastor, with
his officials, began to cast about Tor
permanent site, and the present large
and slightly location, which lies in the
very center of this beautiful suburb,
was secured.
The church building is constructed of
concrete blocks of artistic design, the
architectural features being the Roman
type, and the front window is said by
competent judges to be one of the finest
pieces of art glass work in the city
The cost of the building is about $40, ,0O0
This does not include the peWs, which
are not yet installed.
This church is to be formally opened
today, June g. with special features
At the morning service the Rev. A. w.
Atkinson, d. D., district superintendent
of the Los Angeles district, will preach.
In the afternoon at 3 o'clock Rev. DR..
Matt S. Hughes, pastor of the First
Methodist Episcopal church, Pasadena,
will preach the opening sermon. Dr.
Hughes is one of the leading. pulpit
orators of the Methodist denomination,
and his presence on this occasion will
insure full house.
