EXTENDING R. R. LINE

RIVERSIDE, June lit was
learned here today that the Riverside
Portland Cement company, which is
extending the Crescent railway line
from the plant northward to Bloom
ington on the Southern Pacific, will
secure rights of way as rapidly as
possible for a further extension to Ri
alto. The road will be operated as
a trolley line, as is the case at present
between the plant and Riverside on the
south, and passenger traffic will have
the right of way.
The extension to Bloomington will
give connections with the Southern Pa
cific overland line and at Rialto the
Santa Fe overland line would be
tapped The connections thus made
possible would insure the company
against the danger of being cut Off
from the outside world, as was the case
last winter when the rise in the Santa
Ana took out large portion of the
brige between Riverside and the works.
The company denies the rumor that
the railway line has been sold to the
Southern Pacific or any other railroad.

pictures the damage that would result
to Pasadena if the supply should fail

says regarding owens river water:
again suppose we obtained a part
of this water and never had to use
one drop of it, I believe the fact that
we had an oversupply of water and
the reputation of having this water
would be worth a large amount in dol
lars and cents to our city. Investors
have been told by the people of other
towns of an alleged shortage and they
have placed their money in other
places Now, this will continue until
we get an extra supply of water. How
much longer can we afford to wait?

a chum of Reams is guilty of the crime
perpetrated here while Reams was on
board the naval supply ship Iris at San

here on Lee II. Young and others used
the name of Reams and also took ad-
vantage of his bank account in San
Francisco, not being aware the ac-
count had been closed.

month ago and cashed four checks for
amounts up to $60 They were drawn
on the Hibernian Banking and Loan
society of San Francisco, and were
signed ALBERT ]. Reams." In few
days they came back with the stamp
account closed" Then the authorities

had an account in the San Francisco
bank in question in partnership with
a cousin, and the latter had drawn it
out without his knowledge. He made
good the amounts of the checks in
San Diego and was released of the
charge. About this time he was ar

cisco and tried the best specialists on
nervous troubles there, but kept get
ting worse all the time. 1t so affected
my stomach and bowels that whatever

would accumulate, causing hemOr-

came to Santa Cruz and tried a doctor
here, but got no relief. I was not able
to walk over two blocks. On July

now after taking eighteen treatments
I can eat anything. No fermentation,
no piles, no hemorrhoids. I can lie at
