CHINESE celebrate
FIRST ANNIVERSARY

PASADENA, May IA church SER

ing to the Pasadena Congregational
mission for the Chinese. The affair was
the first anniversary celebration OF the
founding of the mission and reports
read showed how wonderfully success
full have been the efforts of those in
charge of the work during tnls, the
first year of it's life.
The mission does not conf1ne its eff
forts to evangelizing the Chinese, but
also labors with those of the Greek
faith. On the program this evening
appeared many an odd Celestial name,
and those portions Of the service which
were given in Chinese or Greek were
exceedingly novel,
OF course much of the program was
in English, with those interested in the
work as speakers, but there were
number of songs sung by the Chinese
and several of the evangelized foreign
ers spoke, recited or sang.
Among the particularly interesting
numbers was a recitation, "China's s
Millions" by Louie Nouie; an address
on "Old and New China" by Lee Hong;
a. recitation, Suppose a Star Refused
to Shine" by Master Lee Chew; a pa.
per, Comparisons of Chinese ant
American Costumes written and reat
by Margaret Chung, and two recitation'
by Sue King and Yen Quong.
The exceeding novelty Of the affail
brought many to the meeting who dc
not belong to the Congregational faith
and there was much favorable comment
on the wonderful showing of the Chi
nese, due to the efforts Of the Pasadena
missionaries.

OCEAN PARK, May 7.-Bitine
repartee was indulged in last evening
between members of the board of city
trustees and r. A. Dallugge, repre-
senting the chamber of commerce
when Dallugge appeared before the

Chairman of the Board Dana Burks

Trustee J. G. Jones seconded Burks
by addressing several sarcasms to Dali
lugge, at which Trustees Robinson and
Evans took up the cudgel for the trade
organization, with the result that
stinging words were passed about dur
ing a hot argument that closed by
Burks stating to Dallugge that he con-
sidered the chamber of commerce an
organization of radicals and that the
cnly notice he would take of messages
from the body was when it's communi-
cations were presented in writing and
came through the city clerk.

chairman was the cause of considerable
severe criticism here today by members

NEW PASSENGER
AGENT is HAPPY
"Tom" Peck Receives Congratulations
of His Many Shriner Friends
and Accordingly Sets up
n the Poetry

TON" G. Peck, known as a good
fellow and a gentleman wherever the
red fez and the zem zem abound, was
overwhelmed with congratulations yes
terday when his friends heard that he
had been made general passenger agent
of the Salt Lake road. The happy
noble was kept busy receiving con-
gratulations of some eight million
Shriners-more or less-besides getting
the glad hands from his less happy
and fortunate friends outside the
sacred oasis.
In the exuberance of his new dignity
Tom came through with several hum
dred copies of the following elucidat-
ing poem, printed on heavy linen paper
and beautifully embossed:
What Makes the Wildcat Wild?
A Sonnet of the Desert.
Translated from the Original Arabic by
Noble Benton Quick of Moila,
Mixed Drinks"
And Chief Douglas White of The Ar
rowhead Tribe.
Aboriginal Title. 'Injun Who Has Not
Crossed the Hot Sands"
They tell us that the question great
Has ne'er been answered yet,
But we know that the wild cat
Was driven wild by Pet.
The method which he used to make
The tail of this cat long
Is not the purpose of this tale
Or purport of this song.
CHORUS.
| Who made the wildcat wilder?
Who made the wildcat wild?
| The answer isgPet Clayton,
| st. Joseph's favorite child.
| The wildcat is noble bird.
For years he's been untamed.
Through all the worlds great history
His masters been unnamed;
But our Imperial Potentate,
Pet Clayton is his name,
This wild beast he can subjugate,
This animal make tame.-Chorus.
Oh. who can tame the wildcat?
Pet Clayton is the one;
He'll tame the beast for money,
Or tame him just for fun. y
He'll tame him on the ocean,
He'll tame on the land;
He'll make this awful animal
Eat peanuts from his hand.--Chorus
No matter how the question comes
The answers just the same
Since Pet he made the wildcat wild
And as quickly made him tame.
Thus India's host has it's reply,
Since now they surely know
That Pet made wild the wildcat wild
And made him tame also.-Chorus.

LONG BEACH, May 7,-Because of a

construction of the costly new First
Methodist church at Fifth street and
Pacific avenue has been brought to a
standstill The next payment due from
the persons who purchased the present
church site will not be paid until Sep

the construction can proceed when the
next subscriptions to the building fund
come due, which will be In July.
AS the church will not be completed
in time for the event it is probable
that the next annual conference, which
was scheduled for Long Beach for next
fall, will be held in another city. Uni
