SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA NEWS NOTES FROM PASADENA The Union Convention of Chris tian Endeavorers DR. BOXTER'S INVENTION Presented to the Public by Local Ama. teur Players Militiamen Accept a Special Invitation to Attend Church—Personal Notes and General News Brevities. PASADENA, Nov. 29.—At the opening session of the Christian Endeavor union convention Friday afternoon Rev. H. W. Lathe delivered th*; sermon, his text being: "Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men." The sermon was an elo quent appeal to the Kndeavorers to win souls for Christ. He made the point that lowliness in this world was no bar rier to the attainment of the highest place in heaven. He urged the society to go into the streets to bring souls to salvation, and not watt for them to come to them. Prayer was lead by Rev. C. D. Lacey, and a hymn sung under the leadership of C. C. Reynolds. An hour was devoted to the Interme diate Christian Endeavor society, pa pers being read, by Miss. May Hadley, Miss Louie Ogden, Miss Anna- Ford, Miss Olive Barrlngton. The evening session Friday opened with a song service led by Rev. A. VV. Older of Los Angeles. He gave a brief history of Miss Frances R. Havergal and her songs. Dr. J. A. Malchonlan .if Armenia and Rev. J. H. Williams of Rodlands made the principal addresses. The former spoke in behalf of his suffer ing countrymen, and said that the popu lation of Armenia had been reduced from twelve millions to but little more than three millions by Turkish cruelty, and as yet the Christian nations had taken no steps in their behalf. Rev. Williams addressed the convention upon the text: "Follow Me." A 1 short con secration service closed the evening. At yesterday's session an hour was de voted to the study of the Bible, led by Dr. A. J. Frost of San Bernardino.

SAN BERNARDINO, Nov. 29.— J. W. Harris, who was run over last evening on lower E street, died at 9:80 last evening, having never regained con sciousness. When he died his family were at his bedsld. Mr. Harris was evi dently intoxicated at the time he was thrown from his wagon, as Police Of ficer Reeves saw him Just before he was hurt. When thrown from the wagon he fell on tbe motor road track, and if he had lain there three minutes longer Ihe motor train would surely have run over him, for Just as the body was placed in a passing wagon the motor rounded the curve, not a hundred yards away. Jerry Mcßlvam, an old resident of this c city, has received notice from the public administrator of Alma, Kansas, that he has fallen heir to about $17,000 througn the death of a brother. Tom Johnson, the colored man con victed of assault with a deadly weapon, will be se/ntenced tomorrow. The fund flor the Orphan's home now stands $264.61. The fire department was called out last evening to a little blaze on Third street, but It was put out before the de partment arrived. The teachers' institute meets in this city tomorrow. The city is being visited today by a heavy wind storm, and the dust almost obscures the sun from sight. The Republicans were to have held a meeting iast night at the city hall for the purpose of looking over the ground for the city campaign, but on account of a dying man being in tlie hall, the meet ing was postponed. The Bi-Metaliic club meets on Mon day night, at the court room of Judge Knox for the purpose of enrolling mem bers. Permanent organization will be effected one week from Monday night. It is safe to say that the club will have over 100 members, as the greatest in terest is being manifested. The Sun Saturday morning came out with a big scare-head, "Are After Boyd's Scalp." In other words, the Sun is helping to make a fight to have Post master Boyd ousted and have a gold Democrat put in his place. The Sun has a grievance against Mr. Boyd, hence the willingness to help those who are op posed to him. The man who Is mentioned to succeed Postmaster Boyd is Walter Hubbard, a Cleveland Democrat. As to Mr .Hubbard's chances, the Sun says: "If he wants it he can probably have the almost united support of the Republic an central committee." From the manner In which some of the Republicans talk, they will not stand in with the Sun & Co.'s scheme and give a gold Democrat the plum. They want a Republican postmaster, and they are willing to wait until Mc- Kinley takes his seat to get htm. This being the case, they will not indorse a gold Democrat for the position. The charges against Mr. Boyd are trumped up and without foundation. The alle gation is that Mr. Boyd posted up of fensive political posters in the postofflce. This is untrue and is emphatically de nied by Mr. Boyd. The Times-Index, also a Republican paper, says: "The charges made through the postofflce de partment, that he had posted the notices in the windows or in the rotunda of the postofflce, the premises in his official charge, he denies in toto, and, as far as the Times-Index knows, no one is pre pared to question the truth of his de nial." Some Interesting developments are looked for before the fight is over. SANTA MONICA. Sensational Rumors to Be Investigated. A Site for a High School. ' SANTA MONICA, Nov. 29.—The fol lowing is clipped from the Outlook: The Outlook is carefully gathering the facts regarding the sensational rumors which have been whispered throughout the town for the past month or more, and will be prepared soon to give Its readers the benefit of its search. It is the common talk that considerable money has been raised, which was to be given to certain parties who were employed to secure sufficient testimony to prove a violation of the purity of election laws. One of Santa Monica's venerable citizens is said to be one who has been putting up money and lending his time andl scheming ability to help the cause of personal spite, jeal ousy and revenge for imaginary griev ances. A. C. Gillls has. been appointed as signee of Andrew Stevens, an insolvent residing at Ballona. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Bergstrand of Los Angeles are the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Gray. Mrs. Conckle has had an addition built to her Eighth street property. Mr. and Mrs. R. Hopf and their son, Mr. V. R. Hopf, have returned: from Elsinore. The board of education has purchased four iots, corner Tenth and Oregon, for a high school site. Consideration, $1100.25. The North Beach bath house will shortly construct a new approach to the bath house. THANKSGIVING DAY. Thanksgiving day was observed' in various ways dear to the American heart from feasting on turkey, pumpkin pie, cranberries, etc., to athletic sports, with a dash of religious services thrown in for tho sake of appearance, or partly out of the fullness of thankful hearts, I don't know which, and in consequence give both the credit, so as to slight none. At the hotels, from the Jackson down ward, there was a spread a matchless feast of good things, and Eckert & Hopf did themselves proud In the elaborate menu for their guests. The day was a pleasant one, outside, of a little wind, which happily subsided before noon, andl the game of baseball in the afternoon between the Leans and the Fats was a remarkable display of skill, endurance and earnest desire to win, which I believe "fans" call team work, on the part of the Fats, which was most commendable. The Leans were not In It, and though they were expected to be great at base running, very few of them could hit M. C. Roth's wonderful curves, and those who dild never reached first base, for ex-Mayor Carrlllo completely covered it. When he could not get the ball in time to touch the runner he sat diown on the base and it disappeared, and In conse quence Umpire Oppenheim declared the runner out because he never touched first base. G. E. Williams was coach, and acted well the part, his yelling mak ing the whistles of the Southern Pacific, Santa Fe and electric road locomotives ashamed, as he lustily called out, "Move along, Mr. Mayor, the ball is chasing you," or "Get a move on, Dad remember Christmas is coming," or "The drug store will burn down, De vine, if you don't get second base," and other words of encouragement to his team. Once he forgot himself and thought he was calling out lancers, when there were three men on bases and M. C. Roth made a magnificent three-bag ger and he yelled out "All hands round," and four tallies were added to their to tal. It would be Impossible to give the entire game, which was one replete with thrilling plays, pants-splitting slides, broken fingers and glory all about the Fats, with the black night of sorrow to encircle the Deans. The proceeds, about I 80, were added to swell the total of t,he Calabasas road fund. Dr. J. J. Place is confined to his house. Rev. Mr. Kimball, former pastor of the Congregational church here, ac companied by his wife, spent Thursday, Friday and Saturday here. Rev. S. D. Belt, the former pastor of the Congregational church, was ten dered a recentlon at the church. Thanks giving evening. The chamber of commerce heldi an interesting meeting Wednesday, al though the attendance was snrSTl. The Methodists gave an entertaining LOtf 'ANGELES HEBALD: MONDAY MOBNINGr, NOVEMBEIt 3U, ITO6. 1 social last night for the benefit of the I Christmas tree. Bassett & Nobeker have sued G. Wiley Wells- to recover 1249.58 for lumber fur nished for his dwelling on Second street. J. C. Masteller, commander for the California and Nevada department of the G. A. R., has made the local post happy by the appointment of R. R. Harriß as assistant Inspector for this depattment, vice H. P. Elliott as aid de camp. The Maccabees gave a social at the opera house on Thanksgiving eve. SAN BERNARDINO The Fate of the Colton Cement Works. An Exodus to Randsburg SAN BERNARDINO, Nov. 29.—The Websters met last night. The meeting was called to order by C. W. Foy. A committee on by-laws was appointed to report on next Friday night. Seven teen members were present. It is rumored that the management of the Colton Cement works will trans form it Into a smelter. It is estimated that it will cost 5000 or $6000. The mining men of the county are quite Jubilant over the outlook. John Tomicicle has filed papers of in solvency. He owes $3526. The orange groves in this county es caped the frost. Prospectors are leaving the city every day for the Randsburg and Virginia Dale districts. The Devil Canyon toll road has been materially improved by ranchers along the road. MYSTERIES OF A MEDIUM John Siter Continues fo Draw the Gullible Public His Usual Sunday Evening Seance—ls Not a Bad Guesser but Reveals Little of Importance John Slater, who advertises himself as one of the greatest test mediums ever before the public, gave a test meeting in Illinois hall last night before an au dience of about 300 people. Previous to giving any tests Slater made a few remarks on spiritualism and mediums in general, not failing to extol his own virtues, and concluded by abusing local papers for what he termed their unfair treatment of himself. He then promised to demonstrate his unusual power, and it was evident that some proof that this really existed would be necessary before he could expect the audience to accept all his statements without at least a grain of allowance. No spooks were to be Introduced at the meeting, but any one present who had a question he would like to have an swered was requested to write It out on a slip of paper, and after signing his initials to bring it forward and place it on the desk at which Slater stood. Probably a hundred questions were written out and carried forward. Then the demonstration of the medium's won derful power began. Among the first notes picked up was one signed "T.N." "Let me see," said the medium, repeating the Initials; "oh, yes, now I have it; Augustine—but some spirit. What was that last name? Out with it.Yes, that's it; now I have it.Nat ivet—Augustine Nativet, and that's your dead wife's name, "T. N." "Right," gasped a gray-haired old man, several rows back in a half-dazed sort of way. "Nativet, your wife greets you, and sends word that she is happy," contin ued the medium, "W. L. G.," let me advise you to get that tooth fixed, for if you do not you will lose it. Take my advice and have it attended to at once." Then contin uing, "Did you ever know me, W. L. G., and did I know about your tooth?" "No, sir," replied a youth in one of the front rows, placing his palm over the aching member, "not that I know of." "M. S., I hear the spirit calling you. Mary, that's your name, isn't It?" "No, sir," came a response from the back part of the room. "Oh, yes, I see, I was mistaken; you have a relative by that name. That's it, isn't it?" "Yes, sir; a sister," was the answer received. And thus it was with a score or more inquiries. Sometimes the medium was apparently right, and sometimes he was not. After an hour and a half spent in this way, Slater explained that the meet ing must close, and there will be an other test this evening, when the custo mary admission fee of 15 cents will be charged. Last night many of those present firmly believed in Slater's ability to unfold deeply hidden mysteries by his wonderful supernatural power, but then, provoking as it may seem, there were skeptics there, too. THE LOYAL LEGION Annual Meeting of the Local Association a Great Success The annual meeting of the Southern California association of companions of the military order of Loyal Legion of the United States for the election of officers, etc., was held on last Saturday evening at the residence of Companion Charles S. Gilbert, 421 West Thirty-first street. The following officers were elected to serve for the next year: Major, H. T. Lee, president; Mr. George H. Stewart, first vice president; Capt. J. A. Osgood, second vice president; Capt. William 11. Newman, third vice president; Mr. Charles S. Gilbert, secretary; Major L. S. Butler, treasurer. After the election the reports of the secretary and treasurer were read,show ing the association to be in a healthy condition, numerically and financially. The business for which the meeting was called was transacted, after which re freshments, consisting of punch, sand wiches, etc., were served and greatly en joyed by the companions present. After various toasts were proposed and drank and patriotic songs sung ,the veterans reluctantly bade the host good night, all voting the meeting a success and each declaring that he had spente pleas ant evening and one long to be remem berd. Mr. Fred W. Wood and Mr. W. S. Mer rill were elected members of the asso ciation. The companions present were: Major H. T. Lee, Col. J. T. Weed, Major W. G. Wedemeyer, U. S. A.; Col. W. B.

LEAVING FOR HOME A Curious Quartette at tbe Arcade Depot A Group of Hindoos Being Returned to Their Home in India at the Expense of Uncle Sam. Among the travelers waiting at Ar cade station yesterday to take trains for the north was a quartet which at tracted much attention and called up in the minds of the onlookers tender recollections of the late Midway Plais nnce, of blessed memory. The members of the quartet were Hindoos, who first left their own coun try for the purpose of coming to the World's fair, and since the close of I he big show have kept a bazaar of alleged oriental goods in Chicago. It is ex tremely probable that cashmere shawls, brass work from Benares and works of cunning device from Allalhabad did not appeal to the cultured instincts of the residents in Porkopolis, for th; United States? government Is sending the quartet of Hindoos back to their home. They are booked to leave on the next steamer from San Francisco for Hong Kong, where they will transfer to the P. and O. boat for Calcutta. The two men of this little party — evidently father and son—were attired In the ordinary garb of western civili zation, save for their large turbans of black and scarlet. This single pecu liarity of dress, their swarthy skin, prominent cheek bones and melancholy, dark eyes gave them an air distinc tively and qicturesquely foreign. The young man was a handsome fellow, tall, straight and supple, with slender hands and features of almost classic regularity. The two women completing the party wore native costumes. A sort of hooded tunic of dark, dingy material fell to below the waist, and their lower limbs were swathed in the voluminous folds of a red fabric. This peculiar garb, with the many bracelets of silver and coral, antl the nose ornaments of brass, made them objects of interest to the loungers at the depot. Self-contained, and maintaining a most dignified composure, the group of Hindoos displayed the greatest concern for an Immense gray eat —to the Hin doos a sacred animal. Pussy appeared to be tenderly cared for, and the liquid tones of these foreigners seemed to as sume a reverential tinge when address ing and caressing it. And so these queer foreign folks are about to shake the dust of the western world from off their feet. Perhaps, however, they have, with the acuteness of their race, determined to return to their homes with ulterior motives. Strange sweets are pleasant to the Oriental as well as the Occidental pal ate, and it may be that they have de signs on the exposition of 1900. and may figure In the motley crowd that will throng the Paris "midway." It is reported that laboring men are working under contractors laying side walks in San Diego for $3 a week and board.

BERNARD POTTER. 3t-sun Commlslsoner for Sale. READ THIS LETTER _ „ LOS ANGELES, January l.im . To the public: I was aerlously afillcteo Cor about ten years with lung, liver and kidney troubles. Tongue coulci never ex press the misery I endured during those years. I was reduced in flesh until 1 was a mere skeleton. My sight and hearing were badly impaired; was constantly troubled with constipation and piles, and had a severe chronic cough. In short, life was a burden and death would have been welcome. I was treated by various spec ialists without avail. 1 finally resolved to give Dr. Wong Him, of No. 639 Upper Main street, a trial. Of course, like many others, I had no faith in a Chinese doctor, but it took only a few doses of his life-giving herbs to- knock all the skepticism out of me. In just five weeks the doctor pronoun ced me cured, and now I can truthfully say that I was never healthier and never felt better in my life. My sight and hearing are both fully reatorsa: that obnoxious cough, constipation and piles are entirely cured, and 1 am rapidly gaining in flesh, having gained forty pounds in two months, I earnestly recommend all sufferers and skeptics to give the doctor a trial and b« convlnoed of bla superior skill as a phy sician. JOHN M. STEVENSON. 620 Bellevue avenue, Los Angeies, Cal. To the Public: I take pieasure In tes tifying to my marvelous recovery under the treatment of Dr. Wong Him of 639 Upper Main st.. Los Angeles, from a num ber of stubborn ailments, among which were chronic slck-headachec, dyspepsia and kindred stomach troubles, heart affec tion and kidney disease. But what I con sider this physican excelled In, so far as my case is concerned, was in the restora tion of my eye service. Astigmatism, coupled with other disorders, was my, af fliction in this, respect, and. although a number of well known skilled oculists In some of the larger cities ot this country advised me I should always have to de pend upon glasses, and receive but poor service even then. Dr. Wong Hun's rem edies have enabled me to abandon totally the use of any artificial help to sight, and my eyes continue to give such service, both for near work and distant, as i; truly wonderful. To the skill and remedies of the physician named can alone be attrib uted a revolution in my physical condition throughout that pussies those who knew of the "incurable" character of my at taction..
