A PLEASANT Card Party - Local News
Notes.
POMONA, April 27.-The Misses Coates
gave delightful card party last evening,
progressive hearts making the hour tiit
away. The parlors Of their lovely home
were a perfect bower Of beauty, the
decorations being exquisite. The celoE
predominating was crimson. The wind
ing vestibue or hallway also abounded
in pretty decorations and cosy moo ks,
embowered in green foliage. affording
cool retreats, eagerly sought by those
indulging in dancing. The Misses Coates
poHsess that rare trait of making every
one at once feel at home, and the party
of young people who enjoyed their hos
pitality last evening pronounced them
charming entertainers. After the series
OF 16 games of cards, dainty refreshments
were brought in, after which an hour or
two was spent in social converse, fol-
lowed by dancing. So fast did the hours
slip by that it was past the midnight
hour before the last OF the gay throng
had departed.
The encouraging report is made that
the party investigating the work OF the
black lady.bugs placed upon trees OF
Colonel frey that have some black scale
upon them, to determine whether or not
they would accomplish the work ex-
pected OF them, has found that the bugs
have entirely destroyed oil scale upon
the trees, to the satisfaction of all pres
ent, the bug inspectors that were along
included.
There were variety Of entertsi nments
asst night-R church social, the Catholic
ntertainment and numerous private
parties.
Miss Allies Giffin won the handsome
deck of cards and case presented by the
Misses Coates as the frat prize at their
party last night.
There was ''spunky" Pomona girl
sSsSS'~---- .>-hs- ~ tyaivvfr4zeS IIOi.AS
after reaching Spadra.
The entertainment given Thursday
evening for the benefit of st. Joseph q
church was decided success. The OPP
era house was filled. The main feature
was the lecture on the Holy Land by
Father Stockman of San Bernardino.
The reverend gentleman illustrated
his lecture with stereopticon views,
with the assistance of Mr.. Coyle of Po-
mona.
The lecture, indeed, was q very in
structive one, and at times, when the
subject required it, the speaker's words
became pathetic and often reached the
sublime. His perorstion, or farewell to
the Holy Land, embodied the enthusi-
astiC spirit and inflaming words of Peter
the Hermit. That lecture proves that a
visit to the Holy Land inspires one
with the noble and heroic sentiments
which made the achievements of the
crusaders reality and not myth of
the heroic ages.

Banning Herald: The Indian reser-

corralled the stock and refused to surren-

John Ball, in attempting to regain
possession OF the cattle, had a desperate
hand-to. hand fight with the reservation

assistance of Jim TeontiD, Mr.. Ball un-
dertook to lassoo their antagonists, but
without success. Ball was finally cap
tured by the Indians, dragged from his
horse and tied with ropes. He begged
for his liberty, promising to give no
