an open meeting next Thursday even
ing, when an excellent musical and lit
erary programme will be given.
The guests at the Green were RECALLED
with a Christmas tree tonight, and a
very pleasant evening was passed.
The rain today seriously interfered
with the holiday trade. but there was a
large force of present hunters about IN
spite of the dampness.
The Christmas entertainment which
was to have been given by the North
Pasadena Congregational church this
evening was postponed on account OF
the rain.
Mr.. ]. H. Outhwaite's team OF blacks
ran away this morning with slight
damage.
"A number of dangerous sink holes are
reported in various parts Of town, where
connections have lately been made with
the sewer. =,
It is to be sincerely hoped that the
project of paving Colorado street in the
business center of town will be kept
agitated until something practical is ac-
complished. The time for connecting
with the sewer is almost up, and when
this excuse is done away with nothing
should prevent a speedy carrying out OF
this much needed improvement.
