YOUNGSTERS PICNIC
IN SYCAMORE GROVE
The Bethlehem Mission Summer
School Gives Ninety Chill
dren a Days Outing

Ninety children of the Bethlehem
Mission summer school enjoyed an out
ing in Sycamore grove yesterday. Ath-
lectic apparatus, swings and See-saws
kept the childrens faces gay all day
for many of them had never before
visited any other portion of the city
than the smoky district in which they
lived.
Little lunches taken from home and
several boxes of peaches and apples
furnished by the mission gave them
wonderful pleasure.
Two dollars is the tuition required
for each child to attend the summer
school. The work is planned to keep
them from wandering in the streets
and provides practical knowledge that
they would probably not get were it
not for the summer school.
The boys are taught manual training,
and many are diligently making sleeve
boards and work baskets for their
monthers. They are taught brass and
copper work and many pieces of pot
terry are also to be seen as result of
their handicraft. The girls are taught
to sew, draw and to stencil. Pottery
and Indian basketry are also indus
tries in which they take a great in
terest.
Four days in the week they are
taught manual training and the fifth
all those who have attended faithfully
are given an outing at one of the
beaches or in a park.
One hundred and fifty children are
enrolled in the summer school and
there is an average daily attendance
of 125.
Work was begun July 5 and last
week the outing was at Eastlake park.
Next week the children will be taken
to Echo park and the following week
to the Elysian hills.
Before school begins in the fall a
grand outing will be given at Venice
for the children with their mothers and
babies of the vicinity, when all of the
amusements of the beach will be open
to them.
Another auto excursion is contem-
plated for these children in the near
future. About twenty-five automobiles
will be needed and it is thought the
trip will be to the mountains instead
of to the beach.
Those who have given the summer
months to help with the summer school
work are w. c. Eberle, superintendent
of the mission; Miss Margaret, Miss
Eloise, Miss Lucille, Miss Esther and
Miss Beulah Bartlett. Miss Esther
Jones, a kindergarten teacher; MISS
Van Waganon, Mrs. Lee, Miss Rose
TJppincott. Miss Beatrice Cutter, Mrs.
H K w. Rent, Harold Pellegren, who
has charge of the woodwork for the
small boys, and Kaufman Carver.
Other picnics in the grove yesterday
were the junior department from the
Highland Park Baptist church, the P1co
Heights Methodist church and many
small DartieS,

GOVT. PROSECUTION OF
SAVAGE ENDED BY DEATH
Indictment Against Good Fellow
of Ten Years Ago Is
Finally Dismissed

Frank Stewart, assistant United
States attorney, appeared in the United
States district court Thursday, and at
his request Judge Wellborn dismissed
an indictment against NJ. H. Savage
which had been pending for sixteen
years.
The proceedings bring back an echo
of a former well known good fellows
downfall Sixteen years ago NJ. H.
Savage was superintendent of the Per-
ris Indian school, near Riverside, and
was well liked.
However, he went the way of many
good fellows, for a federal officer, armed
with a warrant for his arrest, put in
an appearance at the Indian school on
summers day in 1894, two hours af-
ter Savage had hit the trail for Mexico.
He was accused of securing money on
false claims presented to the govern
ment for alleged expenditures.
Information was lately obtained by
the United States attorneys office that
death had claimed the fugitive ten
years ago in little Mexican town;
therefore the indictment was dismissed
Thursday by Judge Wellborn.
The Perris Indian school was aban-
doned nine years ago, and through in
attention the adobe buildings are now
in ruins.

ELECTRICITY FOR
KERN OIL FIELDS
San Joaquin Company Buys the
MerCed and Bakersfield
Plants and Lines
BIG CONSERVATION PROJECT
Water from Crane Valley Reser-
VOir Will, Be Used for
Irrigation

The San Joaquin Light and Power
company has purchased the holdings
of the Power Transit and Light COM
pany of Bakersfield and the plant and
transmission lines of the Merced Falls
Gas and Electric company at Merced,
and will use these holdings as a mar
ket for the immense amount of power
that is being developed through the
building of the Crane valley dam on
the north fork of the San Joaquin river.
The Bakersfield purchase includes
the street railway system Of the city,
and this will be operated under the
management of A. G. Wishon, who is
in charge of the holdings of the COM
pany in Fresno.
The price paid for the properties is
withheld but 1t Is stated that high
tension line will be carried from Por-
terville to Bakersfield a distance Of
seventy miles, to handle the Crane
valley power to the Bakersfield lines.
Already a line is being built from Ma
dera to Merced to connect with that
property.
In both Bakersfield and Merced the
present power plants will be held SIM
ply as subsidiary plants and the trans
meet the needs of the outlying dis
tricts.
BIG RESERVOIR
The power plant which is being con-
structed on the San Joaquin will be
when complete one of the greatest con-
servation projects in the state, for it
will impound behind a great dam a
lake five miles in length and sixteen
miles in circumference which will con-
tain $4,000 acre feet of water.
After storing the water during the
81
oping power in the dry months, the
water will be turned back into the
stream during the summer months
for irrigation purposes in the valley
below.
The power plant with the dam, when
complete, will COST in the neighborhood
of 81, ,250 900, of which fully 100000 will
be expended on the dam alone. This
power will be used in q large measure
in the installation of power pumping
plants in the valley for farming pur-
poses and for the development of the
oil fields of Maricopa and Kern.
NEW MOTORS
Already tests have been completed in
| the Sherman field that prove, it is
said, the efficiency of the new motors
designed by the Westinghouse and
General Electric companies for oil
pumping purposes.
They are said TO pay for themselves
within eight months in the saving
which they effect in fuel, and addi-
tional experiments are being carried on
to perfect them for drilling purposes
as well.
Additional power will be devoted to
pumping for irrigation purposes
throughout the valley and for recla-
nation services in the tule land along
the river bed.
Already a large amount of wheat
land has been converted into orchards
as a result of the electrical irrigation
systems.
