who did not have their application on

The officers of the horse show much
desire the people of the city generally,
particularly in the downtown bus
mess district, to decorate their resi-
dences or places of business for the
three days of the show. 1t is suggested
that the colors of the show, blue. red
and yellow, be made use of in these
decorations wherever possible, and
that during the three days as many
people as can do so wear these three
colors in the shape of badges or rib
bons. The Maryland hotel manage
ment has announced that it will be
decorated elaborately in honor of the
show and many other buildings in the
business section will follow this ex-
ample.
Markham-Page
One of the most interesting events of
the season was the marriage tonight OF
Miss Marie Markham and Benjamin
Page on account of the prominence of
the two families both in this city and in
this part of the state. Miss Markham
is the daughter of Ex-Governor H. H.
Markham and Mr.. Page the son of DIR.
and Mrs. b. M. Page. The wedding
took place this evening at the beautiful
home of the brides. parents at 7O3 South
Pasadena avenue and remarkable for
the extreme simplicity which was OBJ
served. Rev. r. r. Meredith, in per-
forming the impressive ceremony, was
assisted by Rev. ]. A. Holmes. The
bride was accompanied by her sister,
Miss Alice Markham, and the groom
had as his best man Charles Seyler of
Los Angeles. The interior of the resi-
dence was slaVishly decorated with
flowers, among which the star-lille AS
cension lilies, the bridal flower of the
season, were prominent.
Following the ceremony a pleasant |
reception was held after which Mr.. and
Mrs. Page left for a short wedding trip, |
the destination of which was not di- |
vulged. They will return in about three |
weeks and until their own home is
completed will reside with the brides
parents
Big Endowment for College
An evening paper states tonight that
n Los Angeles member of the perman- |
ent board of trustees of the proposed |
Woman's college is authority for the |
statement that an endowment amount |
ing to $6000,000 has already been prom
1sed by eastern capitalists. 1t can not |
be learned which of the Los Angeles |
trustees made this statement and the |
truth Of it can not be verified in this |
city, but the same statement has been |
going the rounds in substance for some |
time past and it's temperance in its |
present form seems to add consider |
able weight in the public mind. 1t is
claimed by some that Andrew Carnegie |
and John d. Rockefeller have both |
agreed to give literally to the endow-
ment, rumor having fixed the gift of |
the former at $2,000OO0 and that of the |
latter at half that amount and that
other big eastern capitalists stand
ready to give almost as literally. When
questioned as to her knowledge of these |
rumored gifts, Mrs. Johnson, who has
lust come from the east and who has
been doing much work along this line
for the woman's college, refused to be
quoted
