Have Good Word for Service on
Railways and Management
of Meetings

PASADENA, July 1S.-Members of
the American Institute of Homeopathy
and their families who have been at
tending the siXty-sixth annual session
of the organization, and the Melssen
society, the women's auxiliary OF the
institute, will leave this morning at
o'clock over the Southern Pacific for
northern points en- route to their homes
in the east. 1t was originally planned
to leave from Los Angeles, but the
change was made to Pasadena for the
convenience of the visitors. The last
one of a series of coupons which was
presented to each visitor in book form
to be exchanged for regular tickets en-
titling them to the various amusement
and entertainment features provided
by the local committees reads as fol-
lows:
'"This coupon consigns you to the
tender mercies of our members in the
north, who are noted for their good
fellowship, energy and enterprise. They
justly represent San Francisco, the
Magic City. Here Southern California
bids you a cordial and lingering fare
well and reminds you that this coupon
is always good for a royal welcome on
your return trip"
GOOD RAILWAY SERVICE
Much favorable comment is heard
among the visitors regarding the man
ner in which the entertainment was
carried out. The convention, which
was the first national meeting of any
society ever held in Pasadena, is voted
q success in every particular by Vlsl-
tors and residents alike. The manage
nent of Hotel Maryland comes in for
a fair share of the praise, and special
mention is made on all sides of the
manner in which the Pacific Electric
officials handled the crowds without
confusion or loss of time on the numer-
GUS trips B. L. Dowell, travelling pas
senger agent, and A. B. Wells, super
intendent of the Pasadena division,
supervised all trips in person, and
plenty of cars were provided.
The following interviews were given
by members of the institute yesterday:
AN UPLIFT, SAYS WARD
DR.. James w. Ward, San Francisco,
president of the institute-The Ameri-
can Institute of Homeopathy has taken
a distinct uplift from small to a
larger influence, breathing natural ma
tional activities and placing itself on
record with the progressive policy of
the national government. So far as its
influence for the nations good and for
its ultimate interior growth is con-
cerned, there has been no meeting in
its history comparable to 1t. The state
of California has special reason to feel
everlastngly grateful because of the
implied meaning OF its national policy
with special reference to the legitimate
use of food preservatives.
SUCCESSFUL MEETING
DR.. Gaius J. Jones, Cleveland, presi-
dent of the institute-Words cannot
fully express our good opinion of the
manner in which we have been treated
by the citizens and physicians of the
Pacific coast. 1 have been a member
since 1873 and have attended nearly all
meetings since that time. They have
been held in all the large cities, and
while we have always been well treated,
nothing has ever compared with the
treatment which we have received here.
This helped to make the convention in
reality the most successful and har-
monious meeting we ever held. Many
of us had never been over the noun
tains before and we are wonderfully
charmed by what we have seen on the
Pacific slope. We have promised our
selves that this will likely not be our
last visit here. 1 cannot forget to
speak also in words of praise for the
treatment which we received on the
way out. 1t has been a grand ovation
all the way.
WELL PROVIDED FOR
DR.. J. Ritchie Horner, Cleveland, ex-
ecutiVe officer of the institute and
editor of the official journal-In the
past twenty years 1 have attended
seventeen meetings in cities scattered
all over the United States east of the
Rockies. There has never been a year
when the needs of the institute in the
way of halls, committee rooms, exhibi-
tors quarters and the accommodations
for officers have been SO perfect; when
the entertainment has been so lavish
and satisfactory; when the press re-
ports have been SO full and perfect;
when the hotel accommodations have
been SO reasonable and satisfactory, or
when the weather has been so perfect
with so little discomfort on account of
the heat.
DR.. A. C. Tenney, Chicago, chairman
committee on resolution and business
of the sixty-sixth annual session-The
entertainment at Pasadena was marked
by the most consistent and uniform
hospitality, outlined with such care as
to detail that all who were availing
themselves of the opportunity to see
the sights could do so without incoi-
venience. Altogether it was the most
delightfully."- successful entertainment
ever provided for the institute.
DR.. Hills Cole of the public health
department Of New York city expressed
himself in verse
