RECORD OF A DAY SOUTH OF THE TEHACHEPI NEWS NOTES FROM PASADENA The Electric Line Doing a Fine Business \ SALMAGUNDI SOCIAL What the Various Churches Are Now Doing obstruction ol a Stesm Laundry—Birthday Party -Company B's Drill -HSttl Oreen Arrivals—lt?ms PASADENA. May 11.—The large busi uess being done by the electric road is In subject of comment on all slops, anil many and various are the predictions made concerning the future rapid transit 'aciliticsof Pasadena; all of them agree ing in into pOtnt, however, and that is that wo are assured of a very low rate of fare in the near future. It has even been suggested that it would bo to tbe ad vantage of tic; present electric company to reduce tho faro to a nickel at once, nnd thereby secure practically all of tho busi ness.whloh, by providing proper facilities for handling, it could retain in largo measure. And this view certainly has reason in it. for tho words "present electric company are used advisedly in this connection, as rumor has it that there wlfl bo other and more formidable Competition than even tho Southern Pacific—nothing less than another elec tric line to Los Angeles. If tins proves to bo true, us far as passenger trartlc is concernd between here and Los Angeles. That they have reaped a rich harvest in the past season is patent to any one who has been back and forth often. Tho Terminal has sold over 1000 round trips per [day during tbe winter, and the Santa Fe has" done a good business also, 'the Southern Pacitic will have the advantage over ihe other steam roads, in being able to land passengeis close to tho business center of Los Angeles, anil consequently will not bring up the rear in the matter of patronage; but if the second electric line is built, all the steam roads will have to take a back seat on local passenger business. One of our local contemporaries has the line all located for the new company, whicii is said to be the same tnat is now applying for a franchise in Los Angeles. It li proposed to start near tiie intersec tion of Main. Spring and Temple, run thence via Main street to Macy, thence easterly to Mission road ami so on to Pas adena, passing the new Raymond on the east via Garfield avenue to California street! thence east to Euclid avenue, by which thoroughfare it reaches Colorado street: from here running the allowed live blocks on the other company's rails to the business center. It is reported that the francnise will bo asked for in the name of Herman Do|La Gunna.
