in the City.
A BRIEF STAY AT SAN DIEGO.

and Pasadena.

The Senatorial party arrived in this
city last evening at ten minutes after
eight. They will spend today in seeing
San Pedro harbor and this city, and to-
night will 60 to Santa Monica.
The train carrying the party got into
San Diego at about 2 O'Clock yesterday
morning. A number of prominent citi-
zens Of San Diego, members of the
Chamber Of Commerce of that city, and
municipal officers, came down to the
train at about o'clock. Carriages we're
provided and the whole party taken up
into the city. After driving about and
visiting the principal points of interest,
they embarked on a small steamer which
was in readiness and took sail around
the bay. A dinner was provided at the
Coronado, and the party then returned to
the train.
At 2 O'Clock the train started for Los
Angeles, and arrived at the Santa Fe
depot on First street at little sitter s.
The party took supper en- route, 80 that
as soon as they arrived at the depot they
were ready to take the carriages which
were provided and drive to the theatre.
Senator Stanford, feeling rather
fatigued, did not leave the train, bat all
of his colleagues went to the perform
ance of Little Lord Fauntleroy. Four
boxes were provided for their accommo-
dation, and the theatre was appropriately
decorated with flags and bunting. The
news that 80 many Senators would be
in attendance attracted perhaps num-
Der of people who had seen the play be-
fore, and the house was we'll filed.
In the front left-hand box we're
Senator and Mrs. Frye and two friends of
theirs from Riverside, and Governor
Waterman. In the box behind this were
Senator Dawes and Mrs. Dawes, Mr..
and Mrs. Briggs, who are, respectively,
the son-in-law and daughter Of Senator
Dawes, and w. G. Curtis. In the for
ward box on the right-hand eide sat
Senator and Mrs. Davis, Senator Platt,
Senator Morgan and Mr.. q. B. Read. In
the rear box on this same side were
Judge and Mrs. Thurston, Senator Tur-
pie, and Senator Hearst and Gen. Jas,
G. Mcbride.
The visitors all seemed to enjoy the
play very thoroughly. After it was over
Wallie Eddinger and Flossie Ethyl were
brought out aud introduced to the party.
The ladies all kissed them and thanked
them for the entertainment which they
had afforded the party. Senator Hearst
told Wallie that ne hoped he would
grow up to be as good man as he was a
boy.
The programme for today involves
trip to San Pedro at O'Clock. The
party will be accompanied by a COM
mittee from the Chamber of Commerce,
and a number Of prominent citizens. A
return will be made to the city about
noon and the train will then be conveyed
to Pasadena. General Mcbride and
Colonel Markham have arranged for q
suitable reception at the latter city and
the party will return to Los Angeles
about O'Clock. In the afternoon Sena-
tor Jones, of Nevada, will probably
arrive from San Francisco and will
accompany the party down to his resi-
dence at Santa Monica, where, they will
spend the night and part OF Sunday at
the seaside.
