PASADENA, Feb. 26.-Although Pasa-
dens long ago took on a metropolitan
air sud has rightly prided herself upon
the many modern improvements which
have been Incorporated into the city's
make up, both in private and municipal
affairs, she is still sadly lacking in one
important feature. namely, telegraphic
communication at night. There is no
way by which this city can be reached
after p. m. After this hour both tele-
graph and telephone offices are closed
and all connections shut. This is most
peculiar state OF affairs to say the least,
and one that demands an immediate
remedy. That city of from 5000 to 1000
people should be thus isolated for
period of almost 12 hours, is astonish-
ing. There are few of our citizens but
have at some time felt the inconveni-
ence, and in many cases, hardship, of
this condition OF affairs, in vain at
tempts either to communicate with
the outside world or to reach this city
from some neighboring place.
The neglect in night service has prob
y
than anything else on the part of the
telegraph and telephone companies, but
it is high time that the matter be at
tended to.
