at the Pacific hotel. Not having any
money to pay his board, yesterday even

in number to one stolen in Los Angeles
on the day of Reece's departure from
there City Marshal Caldwell learning
of this fact placed the boy under arrest
and he has been put into Jail until the
arrival of a Los Angeles officer. The
boys story is that he and his brother
who, he says is Los Angeles m essen
ger boy, bought the wheel together, and
his mother, who lives at 722 Kohler
street, Los Angeles. paid $40 on it for
him, he claims; so the wheel partly be-
longs to him, as his mother paid his
share for him. The officers reason that
If the boys story is true, he has mere
ly taken the wheel belonging to himself
and brother and come out to Pomona
without his mother or brother con-
sent and has left his brother afoot in
Los Angeles to deliver kilograms. When
the Los Angeles officers we're notified of
the suspicious actions of the boy here
no wheel of that number had been re-
ported as stolen. but upon inquiry it was
learned that '97 Cleveland bicycle, No.

All were delighted and the pupils

can doubt, after hearing program
rendered, that II teaching Is an art,
Indeed teaching the blind Is a fine
art.
The pupils all seem To have explicit
confidence In Superintendent Carter
and bear the highest respect for their
matron, who really has the RESPONSE
blllty OF a another and Is looked up 20
by the entire school Ia that capacity.
To one who frequently visits the in
stltutlon IL is apparent that they are
making great strides In educatlon;
even the little tots, who have been
there but a few months show that
their training has been all that could
be desired.
The program was we'll rendered aud
all the numbers but reflect the master
hand OF their instructor.
The first number on the program,
an overture, by Misses Skeel and Brls-
tow was finely executed. The anthem,
"SIng ye Jehovah's Praises" by the
school showed excellent chorous
training. The organ solo by Miss
Ora johnson, delighted the audience

tightly appreciated. "Wonder Eyes, "
y Lillian Curtis, the baby OF the

a appropriate piece. The song by
