IMMENSE COYOTE
DRIVE PLANNED TO
RID DESERT OF PEST
1t Is Believed That Animals In Fight
with Dogs Have Been the
Means of Spreading
Rabies

SAN BERNARDINO, Feb. 26.-An
immense coyote drive will be under
taken next week in the Hesperia re-
gion, on the Mojave desert. A wide
expanse of territory will be included in
the drive, the hunters to start from
Daggett and the Santa Fe railroad in
one direction and from Big Bear valley
in another. Those interested in the
drive are attempting to secure the
support of hunters from all over the
country. Captain Bartlett, who is
heading the drive, has sent several
cases of rifles to Hesperia, where the
first roundup will begin.
1t is stated that coyotes are RESPONSE
BILE for the appearance of rabies in the
valley and desert sections of this
county and elsewhere, and an effort
will be made to exterminate them.
Captain Bartlett states that the cold
weather of January drove the coyotes
closer to settlements, and that in sub
sequent fights with dogs, at least in
one instance, rabies resulted in the
domestic animals. He refers to the dog
that developed rabies in the San Timo-
teo canyon some weeks ago, going on
a rampage through Redlands and into
Yucaipa, where it died.

FAVOR KEEPING SCHOOLS
OPEN DURING SEPTEMBER
Venice Chamber of Commerce Thinks
Summer Tourist Season Made
Shorter by Present Plan

VENICE, Feb. 26.-The Venice cham
ber of commerce has again taken up
the question of extending the summer
vacation of the public schools through
September and lengthening the spring
term one month. The question has
been agitated intermittently for the
past two years, but no definite action
ever was taken.
1t is argued that in California Sep
tember is the hottest and dryest month
of the year in the interior. Families
moving to the beaches to get the cool
breezes are no more than settled cozily
in their cottages or tents than they are
compelled to hasten back inland in or
der that their children may be started
in school at the proper time.
For this reason it is claimed that the
summer vacations of inland residents
and tourists are cut short just thirty
days, and it is felt that the condition
can easily be remedied by action of the
school authorities

SEWAGE TROUBLE
MAY BE ADJUSTED
SECRETARY SNOW INVESTI-
GATES RIVERSIDE PROTEST
AS San 5ernardino Is Planning outfaII
Difficulty May Be Settled
Without Legal
Action
Especial to The Herald. !

SAN BERNARDINO, Feb. 26.-Dr.
F. w. d. Snow, secretary of the state
health board, arrived In San Bernar-
dino today to investigate the protest of
the Riverside health officers regarding
the turning of sewage into Warm
creek in San Bernardino. 1t Is alleged
by the Riverside authorities that water
from this creek is used for domestic
purposes.
Dr. Snow, who came south on the re-
ceipt of an alarming message from
Riverside, conferred with the local
health officers and other city officials
regarding the situation.
1t is probable that the difficulties
will be settled without legal action.
The sewage was turned into the creek
several months ago. in order to relieve
the sewer system which had become
congested. A new outfall was at that
time being constructed by Gregory &,
Langford, but it's completion has been
delayed resulting In the continuance
of turning a portion of the flow into
Warm creek. The contractors have
now promised an early completion of
the outfall sewer, and an effort is now
being made to carry the sewage in the
old system without turning any into
the creek.
DR.. Snow met with the health COM
mission tonight.

MRS. BARNARD'S BODY
STILL IN PASADENA
REMAINS NOT TAKEN EAST AS
ANNOUNCED
Divorced Husband Arrives, and Con-
siderable Conjecture Prevails
as to Disposal of
Children
fsnooial to The Herald. !

PASADENA, Feb. 26.-Contrary to
accepted belief it was learned this
evening that the body of Mrs. Julia
Fletcher Barnard, who died here Feb
ruary IL IF heart failure, a few weeks
after inheriting a fortune of over half
a million dollars, is still in the vault
at the undertaking parlors Of Reynolds
g. Van Nuys.
1t was reported and published that
the remains had been taken to Indian
apolis February 10 by Mrs. Stoughton
Fletcher, who came west upon being
notified of the death of her sister-in-
law, and who returned east as reported,
but without the remains. At the under
taking parlors 1T was admitted that
the body is there and that no arrange
ments have as yet been made for
their disposal.
John H. Barnard, the divorced hus-
band, who arrived here Thursday from
Boston, where he had been for some
time seeking relief for rheumatism. is
at the family residence, 470 Palmetto
drive, where he refuses to be inter-
viewed, The nurse who came to the
door is equally reticent and would not
state whether or not Barnard is con-
fined to his bed.
Aside from the mystery surrounding
the funeral arrangements for the de-
CedSeu, II -uiS l6dh6Q Jul thbb IiiS Ni'
position of the three children is also
a matter of conjecture. After being
taken by representatives of the father
shortly after the mothers death and
taken to Riverside, to be subsequently
recovered by Miss Helena Barnard, sis
ter of the deceased, and taken to her
home, 2646 Ellendale place, Los Angeles,
and later brought to the family home
in Pasadena, where they now reside, 1t
was learned tonight that the relatives
have declared a truce and that an ef-
fort is being made by friends to have
the matter of disposing of the children
submitted to the Los Angeles Trust
company and the Marion Trust COM
pany of Indianapolis for arbitration,
The three girls--Hilda, age 8; Julla,
age 7, and Agnes, age 5-will inherit
a fortune, and aside from this it is
believed that the fitness of the father
to care for the children will be made
an issue if the matter is not settled
amicably. Miss Hilda Fletcher of In
dianapolis, an aunt of the children, is
still in Los Angeles, and comes to Pas
adena frequently to take her nieces
driving in the miniature basket surrey
drawn by a black Shetland pony, the
rig which was seen on the streets here
almost daily during the life OF the
mother, who always had the girls
dressed alike.

LONG BEACH CHIEF OF
POLICE READY TO RESIGN

LONG BEACH, Feb. 26.-At a mid
night meeting of the city council last
night with the members of the police
commission it was decided that Chief
of Police T. W. Williams, who had in
formed the mayor he was ready to re-
sign, would be allowed to do so, and
Williams resignation probably will be
sent to the commission early next week.
His successor probably will be named
at the commissions meeting next Tues
day morning. The change is a matter
of politics and Williams apparently is
willing to leave the troublesome job.
The commission members last night
asked for suggestions as to who should
be appointed to succeed Williams, but
the members Of the council had diff
ferent opinions as to that. Robert
O'Rourke, a detective, is mentioned for
the place, but a man outside the de-
