Special to The Herald.
PASADENA, June 3.-Most interest
ing and suggestive were the memorial
services at Mountain View cemetery
this afternoon under the auspices of
Pasadena's Woodmen of the World.
There are over six hundred members
OF this sterling organization in this
city, making it numerically one of the
strongest among the many strong fra
ternal and beneficiary societies.
The solemn services today were in re-,
membrance of the four members of the
local organization who have died during
the past twelve months. Floral en-
blems were scattered in lavish profu-
sion over the graves of all deceased
members in this cemetery, but by the
side of each of these four special cere-
monies were performed.
There was quite an outpouring of the
members Of Pasadena camp No. 252,
and of Live Oak circle, the woman's s
auxiliary order. The four graves OF
those recently dead were visited in the
following order: Frank w. Claus, Mar
shall II. Booher John A Shellhamer
and Harry j. Munger. At the grave of
the last named was given the princi-
pal part of the ceremony appointed to
the day.
In rendering the ritual Past Consul
EdWafd Ney TOOK the lead and was
ably assisted by the regular officers OF
Pasadena camp. Vocal music was fur
nished by mixed quartet.
Dean Arthur H. Chamberlain read
Bryant's "Thanatopsis," and Judge ].
G. Rossiter delivered the customary ora
ton. He took the suggestive motto of
the order Love, honor and remem-
branee," as his text and spoke elo-
quently and feelingly upon the lessons
inculcated by them.

"carve out our own record, even as the
kings and rulers of ancient times were
wont to delineate their deeds OF valor
and their conquests upon the tablets of
memory Let us be careful how we
write; let us write something good and
bright and true"
Judge Rossiter referred briefly to
each of the men whose deaths occurred
during the past year, telling something

OCEAN PARK, June s--Unless the

ut to renew its expired contract with
g. M. Pierce, the excursion promoter.
whereby he was enabled to include
a ride on the coaster at small expense
to patrons of the Balloon Route excur-

arrange the daily schedule as to leave
no time for his parties to leave the

Six times as many persons patronize
the excursions as were taken into con-
sideratlon when the contract was
drawn, which it is claimed during the
latter part of its term was carried out
at a financial disadvantage to the
roller coaster people.
Merchants and Others who depend on
the excursionists for business are en-
deavoring to bring the affair to a settle

SAN BERNARDINO, June 3.-Frank
Prescott, formerly a Santa Fe engineer
in this city, had a lively experience in
Schenectady, N. Y, few nights ago
when he was held up by a footpad
and afterward killed the fellow as he
was making his escape with s55 of
Prescott's money.
Prescott was on his way home with
$500 in one pocket and S55 in another.
The fellow got the s55 but missed the
$500.
He backed away from Prescott, then
finally turned TO run. Prescott whipped
out his pistol and took a shot at the
fellow which brought him to the ground
with howl. He, however, arose and
made another start to run. Afterward
he was found dead.
Prescott is at Schenectady looking
after the placing of some special at
tachments on a lot of locomotives that
are being built there for the Western
