lying at the west end of the great San
Gabriel Valley, was purchased from own
ers who had used it as sheep ranch, for
the purpose of growing fruit. 1t then be-
came known as the Indiana Colony, for
the reason that most OF the men inter-
ested came from the State of Indiana.
In the year 1873 articles ofincorporation
were adopted under the name OF the San
Gabriel Orange Grove Association.
The land was surveyed and laid off into
ranches of from ten to forty or more acres.
The owners went to work grading roads
and developing water in the Arroyo Seco
canyon. a large portion of this land was
set out to fruit.
About 1882 the beautiful and healthy To-
cation and the progressive character of
the residents, together with its proximity
to Los Angeles. began to attract the atten-
ton of others who desired more partic-
ularly a home where health, comfort and
pleasure might be had. The orchards be-
gan to be divided up into lots for homes,
new streets were laid out, and the popula-
ton very rapidly increased.
People from all parts of the United
States came to Southern California, at

cenIage of them were filed with enthusi-
asm for Pasadena. When the great real
estate boom broke out Pasadena became
one of the leading centers of activity.
Those times were very exciting to the
participants, and are to-day a source of
amusing and instructive anecdote.
After the collapse of the boom and slow
recovery from the consequent depression
Pasad ma entered upon permanent and
healthy growth of a surprising character.
Representatives of the best and most valu-
able citizens came there from all OF the
Eastern States, bringing wealth, culture
and refinement with them which ex-

abound. About 100 carloads of oranges
annually are shipped from this district.
From 1000 to 5000 tons of green fruits
are dried and canned each year, mostly
peaches, apricots and prunes. Berries are
cultivated the entire year and are gen.
orally plentiful and cheap.
The water supply has kept pace with
the demand by development from year to
year, and is used for domestic purposes
and for irrigating citrus fruits, which
have an extent of about 1000 acres. The
water is pure and healthful and reason

fruit trees is used for barley and wheat,

The circular issued by D. B. Robin

Frisco company, stating that no
changes will be made on that line IN
til the meeting of the board of di-
rectOrs next week, is taken to mean
that a number of changes is in con-
temptation. It is understood that it is
the intention of Mr. Robinson to first
reorganze the traffic department of
the road, and the first changes made
will be in the eastern agencies.
Whether Mr.. Robinson will at this
time take any of the Santa Fe

Probably the only difficulty, If any,
will be that of making the positions
equally or more lucrative.

POLICE JUDGE AS J.P.
a Proposition Considered Among
Lawyers and in Police Circles.

Lawyers and IN Ponce circles.
There has been some talk lately
among the lawyers and police officers
about the advisability of the police
judge exercising the power which is
given him of justice of the peace. Of
ten times a criminal is caught by the
police and if his case is grave one he
is turned over to the state for trial.
The preliminary hearing before a JUS
tice of the peace costs the county con-
siderable, and the police officers receive
no benefit from the arreSt-the cOnSta-
Die being the officer receiving the fees
for the serving of papers, etc.
The amendment to section of the
metropolitan police law of 1889 gives
the police judge concurrent jurisdiction
of a justice of the peace. But in this
case the fees could not be turned over
to the judge, for he is on salary from
the city.
Police Judge Ferry, in speaking of it,
said to a State Journal reporter: 1.-THE
law is valid but if I should do it, it
would take all my time do not think
it will be tried in Topeka. They are
doing it down at wichita"
city Attorney Bird said that he
thought the amendment must have
been gotten up in q hurry for there was
some very queer language used in the
framing of it. He said that in case a
jury was demanded, if a misdemeanor
was to be tried, that the police judge
would have no right to call a jury into
the police court.
Police Commissioner Chas. Holiday
differs with him on this point and
claims that the judge could summon q
jury
OF course this would take away con-
siderable of the criminal business of
the regular justices of the peace. But
it would save money, and it would give
the officers a chance to make fees when
they had worked hard to bring the Gull
prit to justice.
1t costs about s21 to bring a simple
criminal case before a justice of the
peace for preliminary hearing.

Mrs. Galbreath, Mrs. Wilson and Mrs.

A Miss Russell of Valley Falls was at

to furnish all the material necessary,
