I knew her all my life. "1 also have a letter written by my mother when I was six years old. telling of my going to school." A few months after Mr.

Lyman's birth, the settlers erected the old fort at what is now Third Street and Arrowhead Avenue. Tho Ly-mnns, with the other settlers, moved to the fort. Amasa Lyman later built a home for his family near Fourth Street and Arrowhead Avenue, Alonzo Ljman Bald yesterday. School Held at Fourth Street "We moved hack to Ptah In 1857 when I was six years old," tie said, "but, I can remember many Incidents of my boyhood In San Bernardino before I was six years old. I remember playing marbles on what Is now the Fourth Street school grounds.

I can also remember trading eggs for groceries and buying peaches for my mother from a man named Hopkins. After I moved back to Utah I met this same man Hopkins and purchased my supplies from him when I was married. "One thing that has been overlooked In histories of San Bernardino Is, the fact that W. S. War-ren taught a school just across from the old fort In a one-room adobe building." explained Mr.

Lyman. "I went to school Just as soon almost as could walk. I used to runaway from home to go to Mr. Warren's school In 1856 and 1857 before my folks went back to Utah. I can remember but one man who went to this school.

He was Alex Kelr, who Is still living In San Bernardino. I did not know that Mr. Kelr went to the school until a few years ago. We were talking of early days and he said he went to school taught by a man named Warren. Later Met Old Teacher "Mr.

Warren later returned to Utah and was a bishop ef the Mormon church In a town where I lived until I waa a young man. "I came back to California after I was married In 1875 and lived at Santa Barbara for a while, later going back to Utah. I returned again to California and have lived in San Bernardino Valley since that time." Brother Was Born in Fort Mr. Lyman said that his brother, the late T. K.

Lyman, who died a few months ago, was the first white child to be born In the old San Bernardino fort. "I don't claim for sure." said Mr. Lyman, "that I was the first white baby born In the San Bernardino Valley. If there la any one who was born before Nov. 6, 1851, then he is the first baby."

KINDERGARTEN IS ANNOUNCED Double Sessions to Be Held to Accommodate OUer, Younger Children Boundaries for the kindergarten district coincide with hose for th school district, C.

R. Holbrook. rlty school superintendent, stated yesterday In explaining why San Bernardino children should start their educational studies In the kindergarten. His statement follows: Children who have had one semester of kindergarten or who are over five years and six months of age will be admitted to the morning sessions of kindergarten in the various schools, which run from to 11:30. Children who are between the ages of five and five years and six months will attend the afternoon sessions of kindergarten from 1 to 3.

Also It is expected that children who are six years of age who have had no kindergarten or other school work will enter kindergarten for one semester before taking up regular first grade work. Such children will be promoted to first grade at mld-yea r. Since the kindergarten Is 'supported by general taxation It Is desirable that all of the people's children benefit from the kindergarten training. Consequently it has been made a regular step In the school system through which all children should pass. The older children will move, on satisfactorily with one semester of kindergarten work, while the younger children may secure two semesters or a full year of kindergarten work.

Our teachers have observed over a period of years that children who have had kindergarten advantages adapt themselves more quickly to school work and make better progress than those who have not had kindergarten advantages. Full double sessions of kindergarten as described above will be conducted in the following schools: Avenue, Riley, Lincoln, Fourth Street. Harding, Mt. Vernon, I Street and Metcalf. Bar stow Newspaper Plans New Offices The Barstow Printer, a weekly Rarstow newspaper, will be housed in a new home by Christmas time.

Awaiting a trial that may send htm to the gallows. Slater, a mere youth In years, flora not permit his possible fate to weigh on his mind. In hla cpII on the second floor of the county Jail Slater keeps his hands and his mind busy. Uses Improvised Hand Loom Slater Is a weaver.

On an Improvised hand loom the youth weaves colored pillow cases with silken threads, a task at. which he works by the hours long hours of confinement In his narrow cell. His loom Is a wooden siuara with scores of nails driven Into the wood to hold the threads. He made a shuttle and, using It as a needle, he weavca his cloth. That Slater has an artistic mind Is Illustrated by the designs he weaves, varicolored and comparable In design to a woman's handiwork.

Other prisoners in the "tank" at first watched Slater by the hour, but they tired of his pastime and, shrugging their shoulders at his persistency, soon left him alone. Reads Two Papers Daily Slater Is seldom Idle. He stops his weaving only long enough to read the newspapers he subscribes for two papers write letters and to eat. He presents his designs to Jailers and other prisoners, who use the articles to decorate the drab steel walls of their cells. Plate's weaving is a queer hobby for an accused murderer.

And although he has never admitted It. he keeps his fingers busy perhaps because his work keeps his mind occupied, free from thinking of his fate. Slater is a "model" prisoner, creating no trouble and asking no favors. Painting Recalled A few years ago Juan Garcia, an accused bandit, busied himself with a pencil, drawing portraits of Christ on the cross, a remarkable piece of art that Ml'l adorns the walls of a cell. Tr if oners, with utter disregard tor religion, have since defaced (iarcla's Jail masterpiece, but It can fUII be recognized, the face of the figure on the cross twisted In anguish.

Slater's accused companion. James Brown, Is of a different temperament. Brown Is the stolid, taciturn type of prisoner, saying little to his cellmates and withstanding his confinement easily. His cell ad-Joins that of Joseph H. Watts, facing a death sentence for the murder of Wilfred Hey.

Like brothers, they cat In Watts' cell, where a box, covered with newspapers, serves as a treble. Brown, Watts Play Cribbage Brown and Watts pass hours away by playing cribbage. Since Watts was convicted last week the two prisoners have played their card game by the hour, laughing and Joking as they become interested In the game, forgetting the outside and the courts. Brown and Slater go on trial Jointly Sept. 24.

They both know the state will ask tho death penalty for them. Brown, however, believes he will be freed and maintains his courage. Slater never talks of the trial. Mexican Fourth of July to be Observed big celebration at Pioneer Park in the afternoon Including speaking and music and a dance ui night in the Municipal Auditorium will feature tho observance tho anniversary of Mexico's Independence Day In this city Sept. 16.

Resort Season Now on Wane Along Crest Mountain resort mail routes will be largely discontinued within another month, H. C. Pease, superintendent of mails, announced yesterday. Two summer resorts, Mr. Pease saJd, have closed for the 1925 season, and similar resorts will be closing In the near future.

Saunders, Who Shot Officer, Loses Appeal to Utah Supreme Court SHAY TOOK CONFESSION Capture of Murderer and His Companions Was Made at Ludlow by Deputies Nearly two years after he was trapped In the desert. Robert F. Saunders, alias Seibolt, "the kid gunman," will be executed at l'l o'clock this morning In the Utah slate prison for tho murder of Robert F. Crowther, a Salt Lake City policeman.

Saunders' last hope, the denying of an appeal by the Utah Supreme Court, was shattered two weeks ago when the date for his execution was fixed. Saunders chose to die by shooting, the Utah law giving the condemned mail his preference of hanging or shooting. Companions Get Life Terms As Saunders Is shot to death to aenge his crime, his two companions, Georgo F. Williams and Joe Marenger. may hear the volley that will take bis life.

Williams and Marenger are serving life sentences at the penitentiary where Saunders will be executed. Saunders and his companions, all paroled convicts, were arrested by Sheriff Waller A. Shay's deputies at Ludlow on Nov. 23. 1023 as they attempted to slip through a net laid to halt their flight from Utah.

Saunders had slain Policeman Crowther in Salt Lake City, robbed his body and took his automobile. Marenger and Williams aided Saunders In the robbery. Confessed To Sheriff Saunders confessed to Sheriff Shay that he killed the officer but later repudiated his words, denying any part In the crime. Sheriff Shay was one of the state's principal witnesses in the trial in Salt Lake City, when Saunders was convicted of first degree murder. Saunders had been released from the Wyoming state penitentiary less than a month before he killed the officer.

Because of his youth he was then hut 20 years old his attorneys carried an appeal to the highest court of Utah In an attempt to obtain a new trial. An appeal lo the governor to commute Saunders' sentence was also denied. Suit May be Needed to Get Station Site Condemnation proceeding? may be nei-essary before the city will be able to obtain the land on which to build Its proposed south side fire station, it developed last night. The most available piece of ground for tha south side site Is a large lot 75 by 220 feet runnins from a wide thoroughfare to a 30-foot side street and it is reported the owner of this property realizes just how valuable it Is for fire station purposes, and just how badly the city desires It and is holding It accordingly high. If he will not accept a reasonable amount, San Bernardino's only recourse will be to condemn the property.

The city does not desire to do this except aa a last resort, due to the expense and delay involved. On the north side, three or four good sites are available, Councilman Leo A. Stromee said last night, and he does not anticipate any trouble in obtaining a piece of ground for tho proposed station there. Gasoline Pumps on Curbs Are Illegal Charging they have been discriminated against, either knowingly or unknowingly by city and police de-nartment. officials, several local fill ing station men whoso request to install gasoline pumps along curb lines have been turned down by the city council, are banding together to protect their interests.

They point out that several filling stations on I and Streets now have curb line pumps Installed, which is contrary to a city ordinance. It Is probable the police department will be Instructed to order the removal of the curb line pumps now In use.
