A PRETTY WEDDING
An Angeleno Marries a Pomona
Belle

POMONA, Sept. 2S.-A very pretty we'd
ding took place today in this city at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Fl. 7. Bingham. the
contracting parties being Rosaline NJ Krea-
ger, their youngest daughter. and Mr. Her
bert J. Roger of Los Angeles. Rev. Mr..
livingston, the pastor of the Unitarian
church. performed the ceremony. The par
place. was very tastefully decorated with
ivy. asparagus. mistletoe and palms tied
with white silk ribbon. A bounteous we'd
ding breakfast was served 4; the conclu-
sion of the services, the bride gracefully
carving the fine cake In honor of the occa-
sion. Miss Annie Stones. niece of the bride,
was bridesmaid, and Mr.. Berton b. H.lle-
bert of Ar.es!a, was best man. Amid the
congra tulatiors of the assembled guests
and shower of rice and old shoes the hap
py young couple left for their future home
in :he suburbs of Los Angeles. where Mr.
Roger owns a fine frui, ranch. The young
people are well md favorab,y known In this
city and have the best wishes Of the COM
munity for their future happiness.
There is quite an uEiercurrent of feeling
in this city with regard 20 the manner in
which the Seventh is being buffeted from
pillar to pos;, a; the caprice of the officers
and politicians in control. Letters received
by parents from the boys state positively
that now that the trouble with Spain IS over
:hat fully nine,y per cent of the men are
anxious to return 10 their homes. The par
ents feel that as so much iil-feeling has
been engendered between the men and the
officers. that It would be cruelty to send the
boys away under heir control. s. apparent
has the fac; become that il is merely a ques-
ton Of dolars and cents with the officers
and not one of patrio tism. that the parents
OF the boys are up in arms reque sting infu
entail citizens 20 plead with the authorities
10 have them sent home and mustered out.
Strong measures would be adopted were Il
not for the hopeless targle the friends of
the Seventh have alread dy got that regime Mt
into and the fear Of still further comp,ica-
ting matters. The action that some of the
prominent Los Angeles gentlemen have re-
