TERRIFIC WIND AND SAND
STORM FELT AT ONTARIO
Sunday Was Hottest Day Ever Known
in the History of the
Town

ONTARIO, Aug. 30.-Sunday was
the hottest day ever known in the his
tory of this town. The thermometer
registered 110 in the shade at noon. A
large number of residents passed the
day at the beach or in the mountains.
At o'clock in the afternoon a huge
storm cloud, which had been forming
in the east, broke, and for half an
hour a heavy wind, approaching at
times the strength of hurricane,
swept this section.
Mingled with this came a heavy
sand storm from off the desert. Sheds
and chicken houses were picked up and
thrown around as by a strong, invisible
hand. Trees were bent over and
shrubs uprooted. The sand percolated
into the houses and filled every nook
and crevice, although not so bad in all
sections of the town as it was in the
east part. The wind was followed by
a heavy rain.
In the mountains to the north huge
arcs of lightning tipped the peaks and
the heavy peals of thunder reverberat-
ed down the valleys. Today is also
uncomfortably warm, although not as
hot as yesterday. A large storm threat
ems the town.

COMMISSIONERS REFUSE TO
ACCEPT REPORT OF MAYOR
Consider That Farley Attempted to
Whitewash Action of Pasadena
Hospital Authorities

PASADENA, Aug. 3O.-An attempt OF
Mayor Farley to Whitewash Pasadena
hospital and the refusal of the com
missioners to accept such proceed
ing We're the features of the board
meeting this afternoon.
One month ago Henry Fessler, who
attempted suicide, was refused admis-
sion to Pasadena hospital when taken
there by the police until an undue
amount of red tape was complied with.
The hospital authorities then forced
Chief Favour to guarantee $50 week
payment.
The mayor was appointed by the
police commissioners TO Investigate. He
reported today he thought the hospital
had done its best.
did you make any provision for
future cases ?" asked Commissioner
Medill.
Il did not" replied Mayor Eearley.
Commissioners Schiffman and Mecca
ment suggested the hospital provide a
free bed for the city, in consideration
of having its tax assessment reduced
No action was taken, but this idea Will
probably be carried out.
Mayor Farley reported the hospital
cared for an average of seven persons
a day absolutely free. Fifteen per cent
of ali its income is devoted to charity,
Commissioner Medill declared that in
view Of these facts il was hardly
necessary for the hospital authorities
TO demand guarantee Of $50 for caring
for Fessler,
1t transpired that the actual cost of
caring for Fessler for three days before
he was discharged was SIS.

REDLANDS, Aug. 29.-The brush
fire that has been raging on the Coun-
try club hills near Sand canyon for
several days at intermittent stages
today swept into a large field on the
Dunlap ranch and caused considerable
damage, much grain having been left
in the field for grazing. 1t Is believed
the fire is under control now.
A heavy tourist business is expected
in Redlands this winter because of the
unusual number Of inquiries received
by the board of trade and by hotels
and realty men. Already it is very
difficult to get suitable cottages, the
demand for this class of property be-
ing so heavy.
Surveys have been started on the
University tract, west of the college
campus, and sixty acres will be divided
into lots and placed on the market In

SAYS PLAN TO FOUND NEW
HEBREW NATION IS FUTILE
Rabbi Hirsch of Chicago Declares OBJ
ject of Zionists for Palestine
Colonization Useless

NEW YORK, Aug. 9O.-Dr. Emil G:
Hirsch, pastor of Sinai synagogue OF
Chicago, who has arrived here with
Mrs. Hirsch from Europe, is quoted as
saving the object of the Zionists to
found a new nation in Palestine will
be futile.
"Hebrews should spread themselves
out" said Dr. Hirsch, ''and not linger
in the great cities. Our Hebrew agri-
cultural aid society in Chicago helps
poor members of the race to buy farms
in the west, and they can repay the
loan when they can afford it."
When asked about the Emmanuel
movement, the pastor said that per-
sonally he believed people should con-
suit physicians and take the medicine
prescribed for them when they are ill,
but it was possible the Emmanuel
movement might be good for those
suffering from nervous trouble.
