pressed willingness to surrender
themselves without any service Of war
rants.

ed to Commissioner Van Dyke late yes

Lanterns subdued Light

Much of the beauty of the effect was
owing to the lavish use of Japanese
colored ,lanterns, with which many of
the buildings were decorated.
The incandescent lamps glowing
through the rose-tinted lanterns soft
ened the light and added to the en-
chantment.
Many exclamations of praise were
heard along the line for the electrical
floats.
And the pretty girls! The city must
have been pretty well SKINNED for
the event. Every one was a peach of
a love of a dream and two or three
were prettier than that The Pasadena
high school girls were not the least
part of the display by any means, but
we'll maintained the reputation of the
Crown of the Valley for beautiful
maidens.
The young women's sparkling eyes
flashed out a friendly greeting to the
populace as they floated along repos-
ing in their nests of clouds and light.

MYRIAD LIGHTS

STREETS STRETCH
Lavish Use Of Lanterns Added Much

tion-GirIs' Beauty
Reflected

The streets along the line of march
never presented a more brilliant APP
pearance.
The myriad electric globes strung
from window to window on the build
ings and every street corner showing
canopies of incandescents, and with
light streaming from every store the
spectacle was a beautiful one.
The view of Broadway with it's
thousands of lights was particularly
striking from the corner of Temple
street.
1t more than repaid the exertion Of
walking up to that point just to see it.
Like an Arabian nights dream the
rows upon rows of lights glittered like
jewels In a diadem.
Broadway stretched away a fairy
avenue of twinkling lights.

FIND ARGUELL0'S ASSAILANTS
Two of the Men in the Utah Street
PooIroom BraWl Under
Arrecf

According to the police, M. Cruz and
Felix Saragoza, arrested on Utah street
yesterday afternoon for brawllng, are
implicated in the murderous assault
upon Patrolman Arguello Saturday
night night at pool room on Utah
street.
Saragoza has been in Jail a number
of times on various charges.
1t is practically certain, say the po-
lice, that both men were present in the
crowd when Arguello was assaulted.
If the crime can be fixed on Sara
goza he will be sure to get the limit
in the police court, for an assault upon
an officer while doing his duty is looked
upon as a grave offense.

man could have safely predicted, the
annual statement of the Mutual Ben

shows that that particular company
has no cause to look back at l90b
as that terrible year. that trying
year. or that year to be forgotten
as soon as possible as some COM
panies are said to regard 1t. The
work of the Armstrong committee,
and the hysterical hue and cry
against life insurance raised by the
sensational daily newspapers In no
way affected the Mutual Benefit
unless in the way Of calling attention
anew to its lifelong reputation Tor
square and honorable policies and
practices and straightforward deal
ings with it's policyholders. Instead
of writing less business during the
year Of so much turmoil In the life
insurance business, the Mutual Bene-
fit not only held its own, but even
made a decided gain over 1904 by
writing 29.13S new policies, insuring
S61 1858, ,14S, as compared with 28,S01
policies, insuring $54,SO1,7 ,7O3, placed

fishing new record figures

nized I'm the life insurance business
