UNIVERSITY PARAPHERNALIA.
The microscopes, accessories, and rea-
gents to be used in the biological de-
partment of Throop university, were re-
ceived from New York yesterday. For
the beginners in animal and plant dis
section, very serviceable dissecting
microscopes are provided. The more
advanced students in biology will use
Bausch & Lamb 'Model' compound
microscopes, furnished with eye pieces
and objectives of good quality. For the
examination of extremely minute OBJ
jects, and for the use of the professor in
his personal investigations, a "Univer-
sal' instrument, provided with high
quality objectives and accessories of the
most recent style, is furnished. Glass
demonstrations will be made with a
solar projecting microscope. For
the accurate sectioning of plant and
animal tissues the laboratory will
be provided with an excellent micro
tome adjustable 10 one six-thousandth
of an inch. The other accessories in
clude scalpels, dissecting scissors, pipet-
tes, slides, cover-glasses, micrometers,
collecting bottles, etc., and among the
reagents are staining fluids, mounting
media, injecting fluids, etc. Pasadena
is certainly to be congratulated upon
having established here an institution
that starts a biological department
equipped in this thorough manner.
NOTES.
For some time past, Mr.. Allen, pro-
prietor of the North Raymond livery
stable. has been missing chickens in a
mysterious manner. The other day he
determined to keep watch, and discover,
if possible, the cause.
| lhe result is that several small boys
about town were gathered in by the
city marshal, and were locked up long
enough to give them good scare, and
turned loose.
Mr.. VIM. Gird, of San Bernardino,
was in town today. between trains.
Mr.. w. T. De Bury and family have
returned from Catalina, and he will
shortly reopen his delicacy store.
Thomas e. Banbury and Mary E.
Lines were united in marriage in this
city, last evening.
The Republican club held a meeting
this evening in the city, and transacted
considerable business.
The primaries will be open from IL to
7 tomorrow afternoon. A full turn out
of all the followers of Jefferson is de-
sired.
II any reporter had CHANGED to be
around the Los Angeles depot of the
Terminal railroad company about IL
O'Clock, he would have seen very dis
gusted lot of passengers, and the epi-
thets which were heaped on the head of
the company would not look well in
print. The cause of this commotion
was that the late train for Pasadena had
failed to wait for the theater goers, who
were attending the production of The
Ensign. The result was that several of
them footed it home, and the rest
stayed in the city all night. "We hope
it won't happen again."
