OFFICERS WILL RETIRE
AND CLOSE STRONG BANK
Substantial and Conservative lnstitu-
ton Will Pay Depositors and
Cease Business

SAN BERNARDINO, July 16.-The
Bank of San Bernardino, the Oldest
finincial institution in the county. to-
day announced its decision to cease
business. Each depositor will be paid
off as quickly as possible and the oank
will close its doors.
The bank was established in 1919
and since that time has occupied a
prominent place in the banking circles
of the state. ..
Lewis Jacobs founded the institution
and since his death it has been con-
Quoted by his heirs, H. Roman of san
Francisco, Mrs. Augusta Polaskl OF
Los Angeles and Oscar Newburg and
Miss Lena Jacobs of this city. Since
Mr.. Jacobs death the bank has been
managed by MIR. Newburg a S president
Since the founding of the institution
c. NJ. Mylrea has been cashier. The
bank. although with listed capital OF
$50, 600, has an enormous amount OF
real estate and other assets in South
ern California.
The closing out of the business was
caused by the ill-health of Mr.. New
burg, who desired to retire from ac-
tive business.
The Bank of San Bernardino was
known as one of the most conservative
institutions in the state and went
through the several panics since its
establishment without the least demon
stration of instability.

CITIZENS OF HOLLYWOOD
SURPRISED AT ACTION

HOLLYWOOD. July 15.-To the great
surprise of citizens of Hollywood, three
of the city trustees last evening voted
to make public tho method of appor-
tionmeut of the Union Hollywood IVA
ter company's expenses made by the
water committee in fixing the water
rate for this city for The ensuing year.
In the face of the fact that the
board refused to make this public be-
fore the rates were fixed the action
has aroused q great deal of criticism.
There are those who allcgo that the
trustees, George II. Dunlop, TT. *. Wick
roy and Harry Gordon are PLAYING into
the hands Of tine water company in its
proposed fight with the county super
visors. John Dick was absent from the
meeting last evening, and George Lash
ly voted against the proposal These
are the two members of the wafer COM
mittee who gave minority report and
asked that the rates be lowered.
In speaking of the matter. Mayor
Dunlop said the figures were furnished
the water company on receipt OF a
signed statement that the rates fixed
by the committee and set by ordinance
by the trustees would be accepted by
the water company.
He claims if was to the advantage Of
this city to have the water committees
apportionment accepted by the court.
If the contention is accepted by the
court. the matter of fixing the rates for
Hollywood next year viii be an easy
matter, While if the cOunty's method is
accepted the water company win have
a better hold to raise the rates, he
claims.

BOARD FILLS VACANCY IN
MANNER PLEASING TO ALL
Lincoln Park Citizens Are at Last
Recognized in Appointment OF
RI. J. Watcher

PASADENA, July 15.--Yielding to the
importunities of the citizens of Lincoln
park and the west side of the city, the
board of trustees of South Pasadena
has decided to appoint to the vacancy
existing on the board H. j. Watcher
sr.. manager of the CaWston Ostrich
farm. and a man thoroughly in SYM
pathy with a dissatisfied element.
The dissatisfaction came about
through persistent attempts on the part
of the westsiders to secure for their
section. one of the most populous OF
this suburb, representation on the board
of trustees. Five men have resigned
from the board in the past six months,
and in each instance the Westsiders
have presented their appeal, but with
out avail until this time
Mr.. Watcher has long been assocl-
ated with the best element in South
Pasadena politics, and is generally ac-
ceptable not only to the people he Will
represent, but throughout the city. The
vacancy on the board was caused by
the resignation of Leonard HargraVe,
who has removed with his family to
Chino, where he owns large dairy
ranch.

BRIDE DENIES CHARGES
OF BEING ONLY AFFINITY
Sensational Allegations Made by Colo-
RADIO Papers Are Repudiated by
Wife of Wealthy Man

LONG BEACH, July 15.-Nrs. Vivian
I.eeman-M -Menges, the month-and-a-half
bride of Charles A. Menges, a wealthy
widower of this city, denies the inslnu-
ations contained in newspapers in Colo
RADIO Springs, Colo, that she and
Menges are only affinities.
The Colorado Springs stories in ques-
ton insinuated because she had not
been divorced from her former husband
a year the marriage could not nave
taken place
Mrs. Leeman was a resident of Mani
tou and well known, and it was there
she met Mr.. Menges. Later she went
to San Diego with her family. For
financial reasons she decided Ions
Beach would suit her better as a home.
MIR. Menges and l were married in
San Diego a little more than a month
ago" said the woman tonight we
have our marriage certificate. The
whole thing was perfectly legal and we
are not worried by the sensational re-
ports printed by a Colorado Springs
! naper. The publications are inspired
by the enmity of certain persons. |
enioy the friendship of many splendid
people there, although others are mar
row and illiteTate.
NV former husband and ! separated
nearly four years ago. I failed to push
the divorce as I should have done, per
haps. and the decree was granted only
last February. I could not have mar
ried so soon again in Colorado, 1t Is
true. but ii was all right in California
So we were married about tour InonIhs
after the divorce was granted.
Mrs. Menges is an educated woman
who has been much in public life. She
made the statement that her former
husband wished that she remarry, in

peadIock peIays ssttIement

PASADENA, July 15.-Water rates
higher than those fixed by the city fol
water used in fires and for street sprin-
king are the cause of row between
the city and the North Pasadena Land
and Water company which has resulted
in the city auditor refusing to pay the
demands of the company.
Some time ago the city asked this
company to install at the Villa street
engine house a water stand and plug
from which the city water carts could
load. This was done because the other
companies Of the city could not pump
to this section,
The North Pasadena Land and Water
company complied, but fixed their own
meter rate. which is considerably high
er than that set by the city, and which
is accepted as just by the other COM
panies. But the North Pasadena com
pany refuses to alter the bill, and the
city refuses to pay it i'm its present
shape. The consequence is a deadlock,
which will come before the city couu-
ell at it's next meeting.

TUNA AND YELL0WTEIL
SEEN IN FIERCE BATTLE
Angler Reports Astonishing Incident
While He is Fishing from Boat
Off Goat Harbor

AVALON, July 15.-A remarkable
angling occurrence took place in Goat
Harbor today. j. Richardson, jr, OF
Boston was the angler and after the
return to Avalon he said: The scene
this morning was the most spectacular
performance in fish life l have ever
witnessed" The angler was fishing
with a live flying fish, a lure for the
blue fin tuna. Suddenlythe waters were
lashed into foam and a monster tuna
and a large yellowtail appeared, fight
ing. The bait was about forty feet from
the launch, and as the two fish struS-
gled for il it was plainly visible. With
a five-foot leap into the air the tuna
endeavored to catch the flying tish but
missed. The yellowtail struck and
secured bait. hook and line, and as it
made off with it the heavy body of the
tuna descended upon the captive fish
with a thud.
So enraged was the tuna at this de-
feat that it dashed in the direction OF
the angler, striking the launch and
leaping clear of the water. When
brought to gaff the yellowtail weighed
36ih pounds, but the tuna, though fished
for afterward, did not reappear
That blue fin tuna are still present in
Catalina waters and in great numbers
is the belief of all anglers who are daily
fishing for that species of fish. g. I.
Murphy of Converse, Ind, the holder of
the worlds record tuna catch, fought a
large tuna for almost one hour off Seal
Rocks this morning. The anglers line
broke.
Has Mechanical Wonder
Applications for all kinds of ingenious
inventions are now daily being received
by Manager Beck of the Avalon I'm
provement association. The latest, re-
ceived today, was an application TO
operate a combination flying machine
and a submarine boat. 1t is under
stood the plans for the new mechanical
wonder had been perfected after con-
siderable labor and after watching the
movements of flying fish.
Band Returns Quickly
Porter's Catalina band, which escorted
the Pittsburg lodge of the Elks in to-
days parade, returned home on the
Cabrillo this evening. The trip to Los
Angeles was made in one day, and the
musicians took their accustomed places
in the Greek theater for the night per-
formances here. For promptness in re-
spending with assistance in the parade
Mr.. Porter received many thanks from
the parade officials.
Will Play Tennis
The Catalina Golf club will hold a
handicap singles tennis tournament
Monday, July 10. Several women have
announced their intention to partici-
pate The courts are in fine condition,
and fast play is expected. Five prizes

GAME LITTLE LAD HURT
BY FALL FROM HIS PONY
Henry Heck, Suffering Great Pain,
Stays with His Horse and
Arises Unassisted

PASADENA, July 15.-Henry Heck,
11-year-old son of Henry Heck of the
California market, is confined to the
home at III Wayerly drive with bad
ly lacerated left leg and a sprained
ankle which will keep him indoors some
little time.
The boy was riding bareback a pony
on which he is a familiar figure about
the center of the city, In turning from
Colorado street into Fair Oaks avenue
the pony slipped on the tracks and fell
so quickly young Heck did not have
time to clear his leg. 1t was pinned
beneath the body of the animal against
one of the car tracks.
Pony and boy struggled 10 their feet
at the same time and the game little
chap, in spite OF the agony which his
foot must have cost him, and which
distorted his face, caught and quteted
the horse before thinking Of his own
hurts. He was helped to tire office of
DIR. Paul F. Deford, where the wounds
were cleaned and dressed,
