RANGE A MASS. OF FLAMES

SAN BERNARD1NO, Cal, Aug 1.-The
mountain fire which for week has been
devastating the slopes OF the San Beraar-
dino range north OF this city tonight
stretched for four miles along the back
bone of the range and the whole valley
Is Illuminated by the glare OF the burn :
Ing timber.
The exhausted rangers and their forces
have given up the fight and 1t is be-
lieved that the fire will run unchecked
until the entire range Is laid bare. Mil
lions OF dollars worth OF pine timber
either already are turned into charred
stumps or are in the path of the blaze
AT $40 p, m. today the fire wiped out
Clifton Heights, a small resort near the
summit at Skyland, the occupants of the
camp narrowly escaping with their lives
before the rush of flames. The confla :

Clifton and into Houston Flats. where

side.
Skyland, which has been threatened by
blazes In the brush half a dozen times
was tonight confronted with almost GER

The most serious damage TO timber OF

OF the fire line.
The flames today swept the entire
length OF Little Bear valley and into

Character In the Eve

Beware of the man who does not
look you clearly in the eye He has
possibilities of evil in his nature.
These are eyes which are luminous,
others which seem to be yelled be-
hind a curtain
Men and women of the world are
accustomed to Judge human nature by
the expression of the eye. Many peo-
pie read character by the eyes. and
can thus distinguish the false from the
loyal, the frank from the deceitful, the
hard from the tender, the energetic
from the indolent, the sympathetic
from the Indifferent.
