PUNNED DISTRICT LESS Rural Area Around Redlands to Benefit by Lower Rates as Agents Win Reduction Reduction in fire insurance ratei for householders in rural districts around Redlands has been granted by the Board of Fire Underwriters of the Pacific. This was announced yesterday by Brooke Sawyer, secretary of the Redlands Insurance Agents association, who said that the association had worked for the cheaper rates. Now that the Redlands city council again will permit the city's fire department to answer alarms outside the city, Board of Fire Underwriters has established a 50-ccnt premium rate for one year's insurance for the rural district.

On the three-year basis, the cost will be $1 per $100 of insurance. EFFECTIVE OCT. 8 "The lower rate is retroactive to Oct. 8," said Mr. Sawyer.

"It also applies to the city of Mentone, which never in the past has paid less than $1.20 per $100. The area affected by the rate reduction is bounded by Amethyst avenue on the east, the Santa Ana river on the north, California street on the west and the Southern Pacific railroad on the south." Insurance rates in this district have gone up and down during the city council's changes in attitude toward the question of sending fire department equipment to fight fires outside the city. The rate was boosted from 90 cents per $100 to $1.20 on the three-year basis when the city first refused to permit the fire department to cross the city limits. REDUCTION DENIED Then, shortly after the Mentone Milling association had been destroyed by fire, the city council relented and gave the fire department authority to respond to outside alarms. The insurance agents association then petitioned the underwriters for reduction of rates.

The underwriters declined, however, pointing out that much of the rural district was unequipped with an adequate water supply and that Mentone, in particular, had refused to provide itself with fire protection. The rates remained at the same high level. "The agent's association th commenced a campaign, which just now brought its reward," sa Mr. Sawyer. "The underwriters nr agree to the lower rates of 50 ctr a year and $1 for three years i each $100 worth of protection on tl average frame dwelling with shi gle roof.

Industrial buildings con under a different schedule. "The rate inside the city of Re lands remains at 90 cents for three years. Where there is a fire hydrant within 300 feet, the rate drops to 80 cents. Composition roof and brick construction earn further reductions." Iverson L.

LEAGUE TOPIC Redlands Councilman Asks Time To Report Findings After San Francisco Parley Suggestion that the city of Red-lands postpone enforcement of its new liquor ordinance, which intends to regulate the hours of liquor sales, was made yesterday by Councilman E. H.

Spoor in a letter to Mayor W. L. Fowler. The city might well defer action until the League of California Municipalities has decided what legal rights cities have, said Mr. Spoor.

The councilman yesterday was notified by President Earl C. Thomas that the state league's advisory committee and board of directors will meet in San Francisco Feb. 9 and 10. Mr. Spoor will represent the Citrus Belt league at the conference.

LIQUOR MAIN ITEM Mr. Thomas yesterday notified Mr. Spoor that "it now appears that one of the main items of discussion at this meeting is going to be the liquor control situation. It is felt by many city officials that the present chaotic condition must be remedied immediately." The Redlands ordinance, finally adopted last Wednesday, is scheduled to become effective Feb. 17.

It proposes to prevent liquor sales on Sundays and after 9 p. m. daily. "It occurs to me," Mr. Spoor wrote to Mayor Fowler, "that the League of California Municipalities will have the best available legal talent working on the liquor question and will be in a position at this February meeting to state to the municipalities exactly what their authority is so far as can be determined.

"WISE TO DELAY" "It would be wise to delay advertising of our present liquor ordinance for the matter of some 30 days. Not only will the matter of regulating closing hours be determined but the matters of taxation and other control of the liquor traffic, which have been discussed by our council, will be clarified. "It is entirely possible that following a deliberation amongst the legal fraternity, which will be crystalized at this San Francisco meeting, you may find that there are other matters which the city can and would wish to control in connection with the liquor traffic and which very likely you might find advantageous to incorporate in this ordinance." Suspect Trio as Strike Agitators Suspected of being agitators In the citrus fruit strike involving Mexican workers of the valley, three men were arrested in Colton over the week-end and released yesterday for investigation by county sheriff's deputies.

(By United Press) ARIVACA, Jan. 22 Re ports of a gold strike described as "one of the greatest in the history of the state," precipitated a rush of prospectors on this isolated town today. Inhabitants were stirred into excitement as the story was bandied about on the authority of "Buck" Traw, close friend of E.

J. Steyaert, old time prospector. The strike, according to Traw, was made on the old Shepard claim and yielded gold assayed at $1,000 a ton and up. The story brought a general exodus of prospectors from Nogales, Tucson and Phoenix. Arivaca, situated on the western edge of the Rocky mountains, is off the main-traveled highways.

No telephone lines link the village with the outside world. Steyaert made his strike nearly a year ago, but has been working It secretly, Traw said. Adjoining claims have been staked out by the first prospectors to reach the site. In the early days of Arizona, large deposits of silver were found in this sector. The Shepard lode, according to popular sources, was discovered by a Canadian, who after extracting a fortune, burned the workings, covered them with debris and then returned to Canada, leaving no trace of his discovery.

Traw said Steyaert had gone down to the 250-foot level, where he struck water.

L. Lewis. The 114 animals remaining in the herd went back to their grazing, safe for another year.

The first huge bison to be killed was an ancient bull, which during two previous hunts cannily had deserted the herd before the guns began to boom. This year he was late in starting for his hideout, and the rifle of R. V. Sapp, Phoenix, brought him down. Cora Salsbury, wife of Dr.

C. G. Salsbury, superintendent of Sage Memorial hospital and the Navajo Presbyterian mission at Ganado, calmly stopped the plunging efforts of her animal to escape, with a second bullet after the first had failed to take effect. Other hunters were Joe Perko, Phoenix; Charles Bysegger, Chin-lee, J. R.

Bechtel, Kernville, and Dr. H. W. Bell, Bakers-field. Cal.

The hunters each retained the hide and head, and 100 pounds of meat. The remainder of the meat was to be disposed of by the state game department, probably to state institutions. (Special Staff Correspondence) VICTORVILLE, Jan. 2. Lone Wolf colony, known for a number of years as the health settlement for the Souther- California Telephone a subsidiary of the American Bell Telephone is not only famous as a health resort but has a very interesting desert garden.

The landscaping and arrange ment is done by W. H. Snead, man ager of the institution. Not only are there many typical and out standing specimens of desert plant life, but Mr. Snead has assembled a complete collection of native Cali fornia cacti.

In addition to these he has quite a large number of and Mexico, as well as some from southwestern states adjoining California. Mr. Snead is well informed as to these plants and cacti and will soon have them listed in the latest botanical nomenclature. The situation is ideal for the purpose and there is plenty of ground available. The main building and cottages are arranged with due regard to landscaping values.

Many employes of the telephone company are sent each year to the colony to regain their health. The conditions are especially suited to those who have developed pulmonary or bronchial troubles. Hundreds have been restored to their health here with the good care and ideal atmosphere. Lone Wolf colony is situated about ten miles easterly from Vic-torville, on the road extending east from Apple valley school house. A number of distinguished people have sojourned at the place and it is said the colony has proved its efficiency and is highly satisfactory to the telephone company.

The main transcontinental lines of the Bell Telephone Co. pass through Apple valley a little west of the colony. The settings of the valley are picturesque, the dry lakes, Dead man's point and territory along the Mojave river on the west being used a great deal by motion picture producers. Dead man's point, a group of upright granite formations about two miles east of the colony, has been used in pictures perhaps more than any other location outside of the Hollywood area. The elevation at Lone Wolf is about 2,900 feet.

Desert mountains to the north rise somewhat higher and on the south are the timbered San Bernardino mountains where lie Bear valley and other famous resorts.

Once a White House chef during the administration of the late Theodore Roosevelt, Henry Schultz, 70, and his wife are living in a tiny cabin in the mountains 50 miles east of here through the help and kindness of local relief agencies and friends. At the peak of his rareer, Schultz had charge of the banquet when Alice Roosevelt and the late Nicholas Longworth were married. Since Christmas the aged cook has been too ill to even weave the rugs which for awhile brought him a living. He came to New Mexico in 1918 after his health broke and three times since then he has managed to laugh at misfortune and climb out of the depths of poverty. In 1923 he spent his last $10 for a Government lease In the mountains east of here and built a cabin, but sickness struck both him and his wife and they were forced to accept charity.
