WORKED I1IM FOR FIFTY DOLLARS WITH A FORCED CHECK Proprietor of Gambrinus Saloon Wants to Get His Hooks on F. W. King to Whom he Loaned Fifty on the Spurious Paper. On a check which the California State Bank of San Bernardino says is worthless, a man giving the name of F.

W. King secured from M. P. Con-ners, proprietor of the Gambrinus saloon, $50, and now the officers are searching for King and If captured he will have to face a charge of forgery. 'J he Sheriff's office has sent descri-tions of the man all over the State and he will probably be arrested.

King first made his apiearance at ttie Gambrinus saloon Saturday evening. He presented a check to Conners for $125. Tlio check was made out to V. W. King, was signed by Grant Brothers, the contractors that are constructing the Salt Lake road, and was drawn on the California State bank.

King showed papers to establish his identity, anil claimed that he was a foreman employed by Grant Brothers and had just been paid off. Conners loaned him $20 and took the check as security. STOOD THE RAISE. Sunday evening King again appeared at the Gambrinus saloon and asked for a further loan on the strength of the check. The reapcarance of the man strengthened Conners' belief In his integrity and ho loaned him $.10.

testerday morning Conners presented tne check to the bank and was informed that the check was a forgery. Conners then sought the ofTlcers and torn his tale of woe. King has left the city and his present whereabouts are unknown. Mamma Don't be so selfish. Let your baby brother play with your marbles a little while.

Fine Buildings, Elegant Homes, Modern Transportation Methods, Telegraphs, Telephones, Are Not Enough. THE SUN would like to see San Bernardino a city of 50,000 a or more people.

There is no reason why that result should not be attained, within the life of the present active generation, but there are many things essential to this end that may not be neglected. The elements of growth in a ft city are many and San Bernar- dino's new growth is young enough to avoid serious errors ft by admitting the following facts at the outset: What we want and need: ft The Santa Fe Railroad Hos- pital. ft The Salt Lake Railroad shops. Cheap electric power for man-ft ufacturing purposes. We want factories beyond all ft else.

We want' a free road to the mountain top thi3 we are go-ft ing to realize in the near fu- ture. We wish to attract people to ft come here and bo fascinate them with the manner of life ft in San Bernardino that' they will become permanent resi- dents. ft We wish to attract people of all good classes who help to make a substantial city. ft We must attract men of means and business capacity ft who will help develop our la- tent resources. To do this: ft We must have the sewensys- jj tern extended In advance of the month to month requirements, ft This Is essential to the city's 2 health and the health of a city is the first thing the man of family consider.

2 We have splendid schools and ft- they must be kept ahead of all 2 requirements as to aecommoda- tions for all the pupils that may ft offer themselves. The standard must be advanced to the high- ft est possible stage of perfection. We have solved the water problem for generations to ft come. 2 We need many miles of well paved streets. We must not re- JJ ly upon the patching process, 2 but must have also many miles ft of good sidewalks.

The first thing a stranger 2 notes is the streets of a city ft leading from the depot where he 2 alights, and the -sidewalks on ft the main thoroughfares. The Court House should be 2 finished. The new section is hor- ft ribly marred by what remains 2 of the old. 2 The county jail should be completed. It is an eyesore in its present condition.

The Coun- a ty buildings look as if San Ber- nardino county was bankrupt, 2 instead of out of debt. street pavement needs im- 2 mediate attention and the gaps 2 created by the removal of the a street car rails should be filled, 2 at least. We want to see 100,000 peo- pie here during the Street Fair. 2 Do we wish them to see the a filth on the streets and side- 2 walks and on vacant lots, and A the slovenly door yards, which disgrace so many of our best 2 avenues? a Can we expect any of them to be attracted here permanently 2 by the broken, holey sidewalks or none at all on many of our 2 fine avenues? A This city needs a coat of ft paint some part's of it need a 2 coat and overcoat. a This is the season for spring cleaning.

Clean the outside as 2 well as the inside of your ft homes. 2 There is none too much time in which to put on our "dress parade" front. Let's brace up and have some ft style about us. The following dialogue was recently overheard between two Irishmen: "Well, Pat, how are you getting on in the world?" "Very well, thanks, Mr. Doolan.

I'm now a prison warder, and make a little extra by selling eatables to the prisoners." "And you are married. I suppore, Pat? Did your wife bring any fortune?" "Bedad, not exactly, Mr. Doolan; but all he relatives are customers of mine." Tit Bits. Gwendolyne Well, if a woman's no means yes, what does her yes mean? Will fender It means that she knows that the man knows what her no means. Puck.

1A THE SUN SHAKE! REDLANDS AINTY0U GLAD? The Trolley Line Inaugurates its Regular Service This Morning Our Cousins Of the Foothill City Can be Real Neighborly HcrcaftcrFour-tccn Round Trips Daily Flashing through the orange groves, Rumbling over bridges, Dashing down the valley fair, Hushing over ridges; Makes your heart go pit a pat Still it's awful jolly, Wouldn't miss it for the world Redlnmls by the trolley. With aiKilogles to the other fellow. The long locked for has come to pass. Tills morning the regular service of the San Bernardino Valley Traction company to Hedliinds will be inaugurated. Last evening a few invited guests had the privilege of "foretaste of the joys to come," by making the trip in remarkable time, under not too favorable auspices.

Many delays had occurred to postpone the anticipated day. The rains cut out two days of the last week, oi half of tvm Bernardino would already have made the rim to the foothill city. On Saturday afternoon the juice set fire to a trolley pole, through a leaking wire, and that had to be repaired. Then there was the connection to be made with tlio Redlands company's lines, and that took time. But at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon No.

5, tho big new car, was put through Its paces, and a fairly good run was made to Redlands, and a few were allowed to come to San Bernardino on the return trip. Everything was 'found to bo In per fect working order, and a hurried 'phone call summoned a few guests for what was really the first regular trip over the new track. THE FIHST TRIPPERS. At 1G minutes past o'clock No. 5 got the first jolt and started off the city of Smiley Heights, bearing the following passengers: Mr.

and Mrs. Henry Fisher, Mrs. A. C. Denman, Miss Blanche Thomas, of Newark, New Jersey; A.

C. Denman, of Newark; George M. Cooley, A. C. Denman, Contractor M.

H. French, Superintendent Charles Putnam, Masters Damon, drover and Marshall Cooley, Horace Hollirook and a SUN representative. The conductor in charge was Thomas Franklin, and niotorman, Ed. I lax-let t. In some of the preliminary runH Ihe time of 27 minutes had been made between the car house on street and the city limits of Redlands.

It was intended that this record should disappear and it did. Down to the corner of Mill street the car Hew along us smoothly ns a well seasoned old-timer, ami the long geared carriage swung around the curve with scarcely a tremor. Once on the straight away down Mill street the power was gradually turned on until Die speeil of about 20 miles per hour was attained, and before one could obtain his bearings, the bridge at the power house was reached. RAILROAD CHOSSINd. Here a stop for the Santa Fe crossing, and off again, swerving into the sinuous track which at, this Hiint departs from the air line before traversed.

Then spurt ujid the motor line track causes another full slop, and then, then we Hew. A slraiulif shoot out Mill street for three miles over a road bordered with I ho stumps of huge roitonwoods, trimmed to admit of the cars passing. Olive trees lined the way for a bit, ranches were passed as if on wings, then came orange groves and orchards. Turning to note the progress of Improvements "the man" asked, "when will we reach Cole's race track?" "On your way back," said Mr. Denman, "we passed that some lime ngo." Then the curve is reached, nnd slowing down a bit we passed Into Mount View avenue and sped southward "on the wlni of the night," for by this time tin; twilight bad failed into darkness.

THE HALF WAY SIDINd. At the half way iolnt about four nnd one half miles from the starting point, the "turn out" was passed, and after a run of a mile further towards the San Jacinto country, again we reach a straight shoot for Redlands city limits, where the camp fires of Mr. French's outfit could be seen in the distance, like beacon fires to light the way of the flyer. A fresh spurt and the camp is pass- ed at Alabama avenue, and away we go to the city line where, heretofore, i the Journey has ended. I'p to this time the current has been fed solely by the power from the Mill creek house, but now we feel the Impetus added by taking up the Redlands brand of Juice and we fly some more, although th grade Is stiff and the car Is new and the trsrk not settled (so the bfs said) but nobody else knew thc30 things.

RANGE AVENUE. In a moment or two we reach Or ange avenue and again turn southward r.nd run to the Lugonia school house, which for tho next few days will be the end of the run, until everything is perfectly adjusted nnd a "feed line" i tin to supplement the juice to near the "turn out." Then the cars will run to the "triangle" in the heart of Redlands. Watches had been held by the inter ested cues and xiints noted nil along the route but "the Ihe net result, so he wailed until we reached a full period. THE RECORD WENT. The half dozen watches agreed that it was IS.

or minutes from the time we left the car house. Three minutes deducted for a stop where a curve was "slushed" left minutes running time, where it had previously taken 27 to the city limits, more than a mile hack around the curve. Here the Redlands party debarked and entered a waiting Redlands car and. alter a few minutes halt tin' return journey was begun. The trip toward Redlands is up hill nnd a pretty stiff one.

as the rise from San Bernardino to the Orange avenue level is iiou feet or more, over feet to the mile. Once started, a car might almost make tho return by gravity. THE RACE HOME. Back over the track we raced, stop ping for two minutes at French's camp, and then pulled out for the home Mrcteh us If life depended upon tlio issue of a record run. Then there was a little test of "just what she could do" with all the juice on and a down hill grade.

What "she" did do was to run a stretch of two miles lit the rate of 45 miles nn hour, aixl at other stages a rate of to 40 miles was made as easily anil smoothly as in the heavy coaches of a steam railroad, where a stone ballasted track has seasoned for years. TWENTY-ONE I Nl'TICS. Back we were at the car house in San Hi rnnrdino at 7:21, having made Hie "home run" in 2:1 minutes, less two minutes stop nt tho camp, or 21 minutes running time. This is the lull equivalent of run from the Triangle in ReillandH to the corner of Third streets, in minutes. If made In daylight and under favorable conditions.

For the present, the time over lo Koiilands will be ligurt ai minutes and the return trip will lie calculated at The schedule inaugurated this morning is as given below ami will be Improved upon within few days.

LLOYD WILL PROSECUTE HIS S0 AD EPHEYU DENIES CHARGE MADE AGAINS MIM BY HIS NIECE.

Says the Whole Cause of Trouble Wis Blackmailing Scheme to Securt From Him Large Sum of Money. Will Not Let Up. District Attorney L. M. Sprerhe-and Attorney E.

Amiable called up on Charles R. Lloyd yesterday and fur tin; first time since the shooting, wiliest occurred on January 111. live weete ago, the wounded capitalist was lnfor med of the developments of the 'fast) ami of the grave charges that hav been made against him by member of his own family. To these ch.irgi the wounded man made a firm denial maintaining that lie was innocent ol the crime with which lie bad beet charged, and expressing surprise thai those whom be (bought eared for hirt had turner! against him during btk trouble and sickness, and accused bin-of such beiiious offenses. WILL PROSECI'TE Lloyd as I'm in in his deiiiinciai lent of the action of his son, Fred Lloyd and of his two nephews, William Ilex all and Horace l.lltle.

and be assuror, the District Attorney that he woiib not think of dropping Ihe prosecution hut that lie would insist on it brinf carried to conclusion. liming bis conversation Lloyd plained to the nitornes the occurrences which direclly led up to til? sliouling. and in so doing he sililci thai Ihe cause of the entire trouble was a blackmailing scheme. Lloyd told the attorneys that Boxall hat come to the bouse ou January 21, auii after making a demand for a large sum of money, and the demand beinj' refused. Boxall had Informed him Unfile would not leave the house until h.

Lloyd, had agreed to pay the uniouiff of money asked for. When Lloyd diC attempt to leao the house he wa shot by Boxall. TROl'ULE HAD BEEN HREWINO Lloyd says the trouble had beo: brewing for some time. That he hat Iiim'ii Informed of the blackmailing, scheme, nnd came to San Ileniardlm' to thwart It. Lloyd blames his sot to a great extent for the trouble, ant yet, during his conversation with Hit: attorneys, he showed paternal affection for the young fellow, his outraget feelings nt times giving way to tiro thought of their relationship.

MAKES COMPLETE DENIAU Regarding the charge that war. brought against him by bis niixt Miss Margaret Boxall, Lloyd makes complete denial. He exhibited to (lie iittorneys a letter written to hirt' by Miss Boxall on January Di, Just li days In fore the shooting, and nearly a month after II Is alleged the trimn was committed, and In this lelier Mist liiixiill shows the greatest rcspivt amf reverence for her uncle. When it ciiine to tic matter of pro cent Ion of Hie charges against Boxall Little and the younger Lloyd, L'oyt: was emphatic In his statements that lie desired the prosecution, nnd Ilia'-he would aid it lie said be dill no' fear a disclosure of all the facts noa-necleil with ihe case, that there wat noliilrg which li" di sired to bide, anr. linl he demanded a presentation a the facts, so I In I Hie slain which hat ben cast iion IU would be obliterated.

STOOD ORDEAL WELL. The interview between the attoT neys and Lloyd lasted over nn hour The wounded man was seated In I large reclining chair and showed re niarkable fortitude. lie bad know! milling before of ihe developments 11 the case, bad never heard of the charges being made against him by hif niece, but liming all the time tho at torneys were present he maintained his ii-ouil composure. And reports received from Hie MarllMiroiigh hospital last evening state that the strain ol the Interview was not to any percep lilile extent Weakened him. The prosecution ill bring the cast1 lo trial as sum as Lloyd Is siron? enough to tale the witness stand This will probably not be for a month In the meantime the defendants art at liberty on ImiiuIs.
