POMONA, Oct. There were fully 30,
if not more, persons who boarded the
s :23 Santa Fe west bound train at North
Pomona this morning for the city of Los
Aneeles-they were principally dele
gates from the various churches in this
section to attend the union at that point
of the Young Peoples Society Christian
Endeavor, and will return tonight by a
special train over that road. They
seemed to be in the best OF spirits when
seen, as il anticipating good social time
in the City of Angels.
The mercury has risen to such point
today as to make one feel that visit to
the seaside and q plunge in the briny
deep would not be at all inappropriate ;
in fact, that it would be no more nor
less than the proper caper.
The circus-leving portion of this COM
munity and the territory adjacent
thereto will be delighted as we'll as sur
prised to learn that the price of tickets
will be only so and 25 cents instead of
the old time dollar OF our daddies."
Maj. ]. p. Spillman has quite collec-
ton of Southern California souvenirs in
the way Of some of its many wild flowers,
ferns, etc., pressed and artistically ar.
ranged in such a manner as to please the
eye and taste of the lover OF the beauti-
full.
George W. Gable, the distinguished
author and public reader of selections
from his own works, and who gives an
entertainment on next Tuesday evening
at the M. E. church, will be, during bis
stay in Pomona, the guest of Mr.. and
Mrs. Melvin Campbell at their hospit-
able home on Geary avenue.
The accident OF last night has proven
the wisdom of those OF our city trustees
who advocated the erection of at leas5
two electric lights at Lesji,o ri line of the
principal crossings along .no some
wnorU III Jne vicinity OF the Geary
avenue crossing and another either at
that OF Ellen street or North Main. In
matter of fact the two latter are the
most dangerous of the three, notwith-
standing the former ia used oftener
than the others. There has been more
or less complaint for some time past,
80 much 80 that the council has passed
an ordinance regulating the matter;
and as heretofore stated in these COL
umns, Col. Muir, the division superin-
tendent, appeared before the council in
session and promised careful carrying
out of the ordinance on the part of the
officials and employees Of his road if they
(the counclD would only give the road
q fairly just ordinance.
The residence of Mr.. s. J. Pitzer on
the corner of Geary avenue and Pasa-
dena street, is nearing completion.
1t will give q slight idea of the i'm
mense capacity of the Chino beet sugar
sugar factory to consider for a moment
what was seen there this morning,
namely: That notwithstanding there
are four different places to unload the
wagons, and that 1t takes only about
two minutes to do 80, there were forty
seven wagon loads standing in line
waiting for their turn-things indeed
look busy there at such time.
Mr.. j. N. league is finally at home
Tor good after his various summer ramb-
lings, and. as we are glad to say, appar-
emily relieved of his rheumatic troubles. |
