AT PASADENA.
PASADENA, May 29.-Decoration day
will bs generally observed in this city
by q suspension of business in most
cases during the entire day.
The exercises both at the cemetery
and at the tabernacle in the evening
promise to surpass anything OF the ma
ture ever held here, and almost the en-
tire population will turn out to honor
the heroes who have laid down their
muskets for the last time. Upon no
day in the year are flowers used in such
abundance as on this national day. 1t
Is the wish of the committee that all
parties desiring to contribute flowers
for the decoration of the graves of the
old soldiers will leave them at the q.
A. r. hall, East Colorado street, not
later than 8 o'clock. The ladies have
charge of the decorations to large ex-
tent and can use all flowers obtainable.
All ex-union soldiers and sailors, an d
all ex -copfederate soldiers and sailors,
the Woman's Relief corps, Sons of Vet
Grams and Ladies' Aid societies will
meet at the q. A. K. hall at 8 80. AT 8
O'Clock the procession will form at the
corner of Colorado street and Marengo,
marching west to the Terminal station,
and there take the train for. the ceme-
terry. The ceremonies at the graves will
be very interesting. A firing squad has
been detailed by the Sons of Veterans
to assist in the exercises. The school
children will decorate the graves of the
soldiers under the supervision of corps
from the &. A. R. appointed to. look
alter them.
The train will leave, returning from
the cemetery, at about II 80 .. IN. In
the evening the tabernacle will doubt
less be crowded at the closing exercises.
The programme, as published in today's
HERALD, is well arranged and will
doubtless prove very interesting. Most
OF the business houses and some private
residences will decorate with the stars
and stripes.
