SAN BERNARDINo.
The Fourth OF July TO be Celebrated :
Local Affairs.

SAN BERNARDINo, June 1.-The Fourth
Of July will undoubtedly be celebrated
in this city. Only one more day remains
in which to raise the $1,000 necessary to
secure the Ninth regiment, N. g. O.. for
the Fourth of July. About 500 has
already been secured and San Bernar-
dino cannot afford to lose this oppor-
tunity for the small sum now necessary
to make up the required amount.
1t is now almost a certainty that In
addition to the several companies of the
Ninth regiment about 30 men from the
naval reserve at San Diego can be So
cured for the day. which will materially
add to the interest of the occasion. The
drills, sham battles and different ma
neuvers which will be introduced for the
benefit OF the sigbtseers will undoubted-
ly draw q large crowd OF people from
outside to San Bernardino on that day,
who will all spend more or less money
here. Beside this our own citizens VIII
not be called away from home to spend
their money elsewhere, as no one will
wish to miss so magnificent ceiebra-
ton; 80 from financial point of view
you cannot do better than to raise the
required amount.
Colonel Spileman is expected to ar
rive in this city tomorrow to make the
necessary arrangements for the coming
of the regiment If the requisite amount
has been raised with which to pay their
expenses. Come to the front, you who
wish to see San Bernardino remain in
the front rank, and fill the list with
nsmes as it is presented to you.
