Service
SOUTH PASADENA, May 6.-Our town,
like most others in Southern California
this morning, was the scene of some un-
usual excitement at seeing five of the boys
Of our fellow-citizens take the train for
the far-distant seat of war, some of them,
perhaps, never to return. They were Ce-
Gil McReynolds, Frank McReynolds, Err
nest Packard, Henry Wilson and AL Nc
Cormick. They had all belonged to the
local military company and had been in the
field one or two years for the practice OF
the art of war, and were somewhat pre-
pared for the service. Nevertheless. the
partings with fathers, mothers, sisters and
brothers were new and more serious ex-
perieiice, which they had little anticipated
when joining their company ''for health
full exercise" etc.
Work has at last been commenced In
improving the grade, ETC., of Meridian
street, from Mission street southwark, by
filing up the former Santa Fe track and
making sidewalks. 1t has long been need
cd and will greatly improve the appearance
Of the business center.
Mrs. and Miss Lecount have left their
long residence here and go to the state of
Washington to occupy pre-empted home
In that new and promising land. May their
fondest hopes be realized.
Mrs. Wainwright, mother of Mrs. Ada
Longley, after visit of several months,

RIVERSIDE
A Great Send-Off for the Departing
Volunteers

Volunteers
RIVERSIDE, May 6.-This city turned
out this morning en- masse to see the boys
Of Company M started on their way to the
front in the proper shape. The city band,
the Uniform Ranks of Odd Fellows,
knights of Pythias and Maccabees turned
out, as did also the members of Riverside
Post G. A. r. as escort to the departing
patriots, and the company, Sc strong, in
command Of Captain Pam, was escorted
to the train on Market street, when, amid
loud cheers, the boys went aboard the
coaches and started to Los Angeles. The
departing heroes include in their number
about one-half the membership of the old
Company M, and their departure will ne
cessitate the reorganization of the COM
pany. In the selection of the volunteers
to go to the front, it was not question Of
securing men enough as much as 1t was
the selection Of choice men from among
the selection Of choice men from the num-
ber of men who were very anxious to go.
Fully 40 men were turned down for va
rious reasons, and the greater part of this
number are able-bodied men, who would
make just as good soldiers as any who
went to the front in the ranks of the COM
pany today. The parting scenes at the
depot when the boys went aboard were
pathetic in the extreme. There were
mothers, sisters and best girls there to bid
goodbye to those they loved, and the fact
that a great uncertainty exists as to
whether they would ever meet again made
the partings sorrowful indeed.

SANTA ANA COMPANIES
Stirring Sights and Affecting Scenes
That Marked the Soldiers
Departure

SAN BERNARDINO, May 6.-Notwith-
standing the early hour-they were ordered
away at GAO q. m.-the ringing of bells and
blowing Of whistles brought out the sleep
ers until thousands were on hand to do es-
cort duty for the soldiers of Company X
as they marched from the armory to the
motor depot to take the cars for glory
and Los Angeles. The muster roll of
the company contained ITS names and the
ordered to take but S4 was quite disap-
pointment and strong men sat down and
wept because there was no place in the
ranks for them. The examining surgeon,
DR.. Roblee, did his work thoroughly and
left 80 for the advance to the front, taking
q few along for fear some might not pass
the regular mastering service at San
Francisco. This leaves S6 of the rank and
file Of Company K, who will at once re-
organize and prepare for another call.
AS the boys had to take the antique
motor cars to Cotton, the city dads not
allowing full-fedged Southern Pacific cars
to come to this city, committee of ladies
and gentlemen went to Cotton in the even
ing and decorated the cars that were to
be occupied by the boys, in an elaborate
manner. The Rathbone Sisters were out
to assist In escort duty, and what was bet
ter they supplied lunch for the boys that
will prove something more practical than
cheers for it will cheer the inner man.
The departure was a scene of smiles and
tears, cheers and ringing shouts that told
how deeply the people were moved by the
stirring war surroundings.
Among the many pleasant things done
as send-off was the collection Of $227.5O at
very short notice on list of 105 names to
supply the boys with little spending
money for necessities en- route to San
Francisco.
The ladies of the Henrietta Hebrew Ben
evolent society furnished the boys with a
supply Of fruit and the w. G. T. U. sup
piled each one with a New Testament.
Every one seemed desirous Of doing some
thing, and the boys who have gone need
not fear but they are remembered.

POMONA
A Parade Last Night and Reception
This Morning


POMONA, May 6.-Again last night this
city was filled with enthusiasm, as each
eprson tried to outdo the other in showing
his good will to the departing soldier boys.
At o'clock the Pomona band marched to
the Armory hall and there serenadedI the
company, which at once formed into line,
and, escorted by the Home guard and
headed by tho band, amid the booming of
anvils and flrecrackers and the illumina-
ton along the route with red fire, paraded
the business streets. The parade over
the boys lined up in front Of the armory
and called upon prominent friends for
short addresses. Messrs Gilbert, Knull
and Haskell responded, and Lieut.. Rey-
nolds, on behalf of the company, thanked
the citizens for their kind wishes so de-
monstratively expressed and promised that
Pomona would never have reason to be
ashamed of Company d. The boys then
broke ranks and, during the playing Of
several selections by the band, mixed with
the crowd and bid their friends good-by.
Pomona was awakened at an early hour
this morning by the cannonading and
knew that the time for the departure of the
volunteers had arrived. The boys were
photographed as they lined up for the
march to the depot. This done, and es-
corted by the G. A. R., they proceeded at
once to the cars. Here, while awaiting the
arrival of the special bearing the COM
panies from Riverside, Cotton and Red
lands, many touching scenes were wit
messed, now that the time for the final
farewell had arrived, and not boy was
there among them who did not feel that
this ordeal was harder on soldier than
facing the enemy.
At about o'clock the special arrived, and
after a few minutes delay, required for
loading the baggage, the train pulled out.
amid hurrahs, the waving Of hats and
tear-stained eyes. The parting was al hard
one, but the cause Is glorious one, and
we all hope and sincerely wish that they
will return with full ranks, but-as Poet
Tonner exclaims:
but that is all hid in the future;
But, whatever the outcome may be.
Our hearts and our prayers you take with
you
God bless you, old Company d.!
The public school children lined up the
streets yesterday afternoon to witness the
company drill-over 1000 children, with
waving flags, and 100 of our boys drilling
for battle. 1t was sight to inspire patri-
otism in the hearts Of all who witnessed 1t.
Mrs. ]. H. Graber died last evening. She
had been an invalid for the past two years.
Several of our citizens went to Los An

Last evening as Mrs. Oscar Sellers was
driving down Cajon street, near Olive ave-
nue., in a two-seated buggy, the vehicle
ran against the horse and frightened 1t,
and it began to run and kick. Mrs. Sellers
was thrown out on her head, sustaining
several severe bruises. The horse con-
tinued running down Cajon street to just
north of the Y. M. c. A. building. Running
into the gutter here, it freed itself from
the vehicle and continued running across
lots until out of sight. The surrey was
damaged almost beyond repair.

which had previously been gaily deco
rated for them. Final adieux were said,

RANDSBURG, May 6.-Fire started at

ford's saloon, and soon that part Of the
town was all In flames. Wells-Fargo' ex-

office and the Occidental hotel went early

last year at an expense of $1,000, WENT UP
in smoke. 1t is hard to tell at this time
just what the damage will amount. There
is much excitement and 1t is impossible to
find the owners of the property, but it is
safe to say that the damage will amount
to more than $25, 900.
The Orpheus theater reopened tonight in

the business houses will be rebuilt.

but heroic work saved the building and

If tenderer tear shall fall
For our own brave men from plain and

Who heed their country's call?
What wonder that the Spadra hills
To us shall greener be?

No longer seem apart;
While Claremont and Covina

And the parting tears shall fall
From eyes that CLEAN with pride on those

Unscathed by the horrors of war;
Come back battle-scarred from the conflict,
On stretcher or ambulance car,
And Pomona's great heart then will cheer
you,
And help you, If help you should need;
A thousand glad voices shall welcome,
For the hundred that bid you God-speed.
Wen follow. with loud throbbing heart
beats,
The dangerous paths you may tread
We shall cheer for your valor and daring
And with pride we shall mourn for the
dead.
But o! we would rather sleep with you
Beneath the far western sea,
Than have one disgrace the old banner,
Or abandon old Company D.
Farewell, then, o father and brother;
o husband and sweetheart, farewell
Our love we shall ne'er give another,
Though our bosoms with agony swell.
We give you to fame and to honor,
To country, to freedom, mankind;
And should your full ranks e'er be less
ened,
They'll be filled with your friends left
behind.
But we hope your full ranks will return
That the Angel of Death spare you all;
That again we shall meet you in triumph
In the street. in the church, at the hall.
But this is all hid in the future,
But. whatever the outcome may be,
Our hearts and our prayers you take with
