PASADENA.
Plenty of People Thereab outs-The
Council Meeting Today.


PASADENA, Oct. 15.-Said an old real
estate man to the HERALD reporter this
morning. 81 believe that there are more
people In Pasadena now than at any
time before in its history, not excepting
the height OF the boom, and there is no
doubt but that this is a fact.
An empty house in this city 's almost
impossible to find, while new buildinga
which are going up on every hand fail to
meet the demand.
This marked increase in population
has been of such gradual character, but
is nevertheless fact which can be
pointed to as an indication of the pros
porous times which are ahead for this
locality.
1t promises to become grave ques-
ton as to how our winter tourists are to
be accommodated during the coming
season, and but for the early completion
of the Green, With its $50 rooms, the
town would be hard pushed, indeed, for
accommodations.
Recent advices from Walter Raymond
and others interested in the tourist
travel predict very heavy travel to the
coast and particularly to Southern Cali
fornis during the coming winter.
The advertising which this section
has received at Chicago during the sum-
mer will have much to do with this in
crease in travel, while the midwinter
fair at San Francisco will doubtless at
tract goodly number.
And in this connection it would be
good move on the part of our enterprie-
ing board OF trade to see that steps are
taken to give this city proper repre-
sentation at the Bay City fair, as many
fasteners will visit this exhibition, who
will have no opportunity to acquaint
themselves of the advantages OF the
locality unless except through our ex-
hibts.
As the Pasadena board of trade was
the first organization in Southern Cali
fornia to recognize the Importance of
the fair by passing resolutions favoring
the project, ii would seem but proper
that it should take the initiatory step
looking toward establishing an exhibit,
properly representing the attractions
which Pesadeua holds out to the tourist
and home seeker.
There can be no doubt but tnat the
midwinter fair will be visited by a large
number OF eastern people, and such an
exhibit properly managed would be OF
inestimable benefit to this city.
POINTERS FOR MONDAY.
The regular meeting of the city coun-
Gil will be he held tomorrow (Monday)
afternoon at 2 o'clock.
The matter of enforcing the power
granted the council at recent special
election to compel property owners to
keep vacant lots free from weeds and to
rim the trees on streets fronting on
their property will come up for some
definite action. The portion of the law
relating to the trimming of trees in the
public streets should certainly be en-
forced, as there is hardly street In
town on which the low-hanging foliage
of the all-present pepper tree is not
nuisance, even in the dry season, and
doubly so in wet weather.
A meeting of the board of trade is
called for O'Clock tomorrow afternoon,
when the advertising committee will
make report upon the circular which
it ia proposed to get out descriptive of
Pasadena and it's attractions. The COM
mittee appointed to arrange for Throop
day celebration will also make report.
In the justice courts everything will
be serene with the exception of the case
of colored fellow who is up in Justice
Lawrence's CT 1rt for battery. Recorder
Rarriter will sentence the Scarfsced Kid
at o'clock, who was found guilty of
disturbing the peace.
NARROW ESCAPE.
Not one passenger on the heavily
loaded Z :05 train on the Terminal out of
Pasadena last night had any idea how
near the entire train came to being
rolled down the steep embankment just
the other eide Of Garvanza, until he read
the account of the attempt to wreck the
train in this mornings HERALD. The
place where the attempt was made is in
q dangerous locality for an upset and
had the villains plans been successful
there is no doubt but that loss of life
would have followed.
It is to be hoped that long term Of
imprisonment will be meted out to the
rascals.
Mrs. j. 8. Glasscock is expected home
from an extended eastern trip this
