Company BIS Delightful Hop - Local
Happenings.
PASADENA, Nov. 24.-Company B, N.
G. c., gave one of their delightful hops
at the armory this evening. The com.
pany has gained the reputation of doing
nothing by halves, which was fully sus-
tanned this evening. Over 100 invita-
tions had been issued, nearly all of
which were responded to, thus bringing
together one of the largest crowds that
has ever been present at any of the
affairs of this lind given by the soldier
boys.
The gentlemen who had charge of the
affair, and to whose management it's
success was in a large measure due,
were as follows:
General committee-Captain Bang
ham, Messrs. Case, Heiss, McGowan,
Arthur and Martin.
Reception committee-Messrs. Shaw,
Brooks and Root.
Floor managers-Messrs. Macomber,
Heiss and Case.
The music, which was furnished by
Brockway's orchestra, was up to the
usual excellent standard of those musi-
clans. Tne armory floor makes an ex-
cellent dancing place, which fact was
much appreciated by the young people
who were present this evening.
The programme consisted OF dancing
from 80 to IL, when the company re.
paired to Williams hall where an excel
lent oyster supper was served and much
enjoyed by the dancers.
After supper the musicians were again
called into play and the merry company
tripped the light fantastic for an hour or
more, when the party finally separated,
all giving a hearty vote of thanks to
Company B for the entertainment.
FUNERAL OF d. R. MCLAIN.
The funeral services of Mr.. D. r.
McLain were held from his late residence
on Summit avenue at 8 O'Clock this
morning.
Flowers were everywhere in profusion,
furnished by the loving hands OF kind
friends.
A large number of friends of the
family were present both at the house
and at the cemetery, anxious to pay
their last respects to the deceased.
Rev. J. W. Phelps of the NJ. E. church
officiated, saying few very touching
and cheering words to the sorrowing
family anu IIl6nQS.
The Harmonic qusrtette, consisting of
Mr.. and Mrs. Horne, Mrs. Kendall and
MIR. Burnham was present, and fur
nished several most beautiful selections.
The services at the grave were in
charge of the Masonic order, and the
body was laid to rest with all the inn
posing and solemn rites of that order.
The sympathy of a large circle OF
friends of the bereaved widow go out to
her in this sad hour, which is rendered
the more sorrowful by the fact chat only
few months ago she was called upon
to lay away her baby girl, who met her
death under such distressing circum-
stances.
THE HANDBALL TOURNAMENT.
The hand-ball tournament at the
Athletic club rooms this morning was
one of the most interesting contests in
this line of any yet held. A large num-
Der OF members were on hand to see the
sport, which was we'll worth seeing.
The game, which resembles lawn ten
mis- in many respects, is most interest
ing as well as splendid exercise. The
boys have been doing considerable prac.
tice of late, which plainly showed in
their playing today.
Nothing but doubles were played
The teams contesting were Smith and
Weight, Prince and Barrett, Hutchins
and Robinson, Macomber and Hutchins.
Smith and Weight we're the victors in
three straight plays, Prince and Barrett
second, Hutchins and Robinson third,
Macomber and Hutchins fourth.
The club expects to give an enter
tainment on larger scale on Christmas
day, in which several valuable medals
will be given to the winner in the differ
ent events.
THANKSGIVING.
Thanksgiving day passed very quietly
in the valleys crown.
In the morning union serviceo were
held in the Presbyterian church, which
were quite generally attended.
Rev. E. G. Harris of the First Baptist
church delivered the sermon, which was
a very interesting one, closely holding
the attention of the audience. The mu-
sic was a special feature OF the Thanks
giving service. 1t consisted OF several
selections on the pipe organ, solos,
duets, etc., and was much enjoyed by
those present.
The dance at the San Gabriel hotel
this evening attracted a number of our
young people.
The next attraction at the opera house
will be The Chimes of Normandv, to be
given by Los Angeles talent, under the
direction of Profs. Taylor and Kyle.
