f'ASADKNA, Deo. 23.—1n the interview
published in this morning's Herald
with Mayor T. P. Lukens, tbat gentle
man points ont an objeotion to the
Sonthern Paoifio coming in, which has
not yet besn touched npon to any ex
tent, namely, its avowad intention of
crossing Colorado street at Broadway. It
will be remembered that the original
application of tbe company was ior a
line up Broadway across Colorado street
and nortb on Little avenue as far as
Loeait street, Such a storm oi protests
were received against the company
being allowed to cross Colorado street,
tbat tbe Southern Paoifio decided to
give up this portion of tbeir soheme ior
tbe present until tbey bed got into
town. It however appears tbat tbe
company has by no means abandoned
Its intention oi laying a third railway
track across the most Important basi
ness thoroughfare of tbe oity, but are
awaiting a more favorable opportunity
to carry out tbeir plans. More than
this, it is the avowed object oi tbe com
pany to extend its line through tbe
northeast section oi ths oity, gutting a
way ont up the valley. To accomplish
ibis would mean to ruin for residence
purposes a good portion ol what Is now
one of tbe most desirable sections for
homes in tbe city.
It is indeed a fortunate thing tbat
Pasadena has on ber board of trustees two
encb benchmen, as Mayor Lukene and
Mr. H. M. Hamilton wbo have taken a
stand in tbis matter, wblcb bas received
tbe approval of 05 per cent of the popu
lation of tbis city, tio long as tbeee
men etand where tbey do the interest of
our property holders and tax paye s are
safe.
THE NEW YEAR'S TOURNAMENT,
The tournament of roses this year

portant part. It is only necessary that
tbe management be given tbe hearty
support ol tbe community to make it a
complete success.
TUB FHUIT CROP.
The recent raine have been very bene
ficial to the citrni fruit in this section,
aud have much improved the chances
for a fine crop of oranges. The fruit ie
of unusually good siz3 and promisee to
run fairly well aa to quality, Tbe bulk
of the orange crop will be bandied this
season by the Orange Growers' associa
tion, although considerable fruit will go
through tbe commisttion men. Profiting
by last year's experience, the association
ba6 decided to Landle only tbe fruit of
ite members. No attempt will be made
to touch tho crops of growere who have
failed to corns into tbe association and
sign an agreement to allow it to Dandle
their productions. Moat of the orange
men, however, have joined the associa
tion and will market tbeir fruit in this
way. It ie hoped that, profiting by last
year's experience, a much better show
ing will be made this season than last.

A DESERT TRAGEDY JDST >
BROUGHT TO LIGHT.
The Bears or Alexander Ssraoboamlller
Discovered— Two Waddings—Bain
la the Mountains.
San Bernardino, Dso. 23.— W. J. Blair
and Benjamin Merritt have gone ont on
tbe desert to bring back the bonce ef
Alexander Straubenmlller, which were
discovered on tbe eanas about 1G milss
east of Canon Springs, September 28, as
Blair was prospscting on tbat part ol tbe
desert.
Straubenmiller disappeared in May,
1891. He was a miner and prospsctor,
and in tbat montb he started from Cot
tonwood Springs for Walters, a station
on the Southern Pacific, about 25 miles
distant, and no trace of him was ever
found until Blair made the diecovery
four months ago. It is supposed Stran.
benmiiler lost bis way and finally per.
ished of hunger or thirst.
When be found tbe scattered bonce
there were still some fragments of the
man's clothing to oa seen, and on the
lapel of tbe vest was a curiously wrought
Maaonio pin. It was from the badge
largely that it wae finally determined
tbat the bones were those of Strauben
miller. When he made tbe diecovery
Blair collected tbe ecaltered and whiten
ing relics and made a heap of stones to
mark tbe spot. Now, having deter
mined their identity, he and Merritt
will bring tbem back for intermeut.
