The committees arrived from Red
lands Sunday evening in care of Travel
ing Passenger Agent George Steere of the
Southern Pacific Railroad company and
proceeded on Monday morning to Pasa-
dena, under the escort of Mr.. Webster
| There they took tally-ho coaches and
were joined by Mrs. Permsr and Mr..
Hanson of Pasadena, @. A. Gardner of
the Star, William Knight of the Mt.
Lowe railway and William Wincup of
the Terminal railway. They were then
driven over the principal th6foukhiares,
first to Hotel Green, where Manager
Holmes showed the 100000 addition
which has been erected during 1898
then down Orange Grove avenue past
the palatial home of Professor T. S. @.
Lowe, past Governor Msrkham's slightly
residence on Pasadena avenue, past the
beautiful residences on Columbia
Heights, through the avenues of the
Raymond hotel, where the carriages
stopped, while Mr.. Webster explained
that these beautiful grounds had devel-
oped to the handsome landscape garden
now presented to the eve in eight years.
He then drove up Raymond avenue
to Professor loves grand operahouse,
to his own residence on Marengo ave.
nue., where the trees and shrubbery had
reached their present mature etage in
six years. All this was an object lesson
to these Eastern people, where it would
take nearly lifetime to produce such
remarkable results.
Next they took the train for Mount
Lowe and enjoyed the bright sunshine,
the soft breeze, the mellow landscape
and tine broadening view, ms they glided
