Thin was the program for the Forty-Niners' Day, celebrated yesterday, and will he repeated Friday, with probable additions. On the burro was Touch Martin, pioneer among pioneers. Dressed in his old presorting similar to that worn by him In every mountain in California in his search for gold, Mr. Murtln enjoyed the program fully as well as did the spectators.

"Sure feels good to get out of those bandbox clothes, back into tegulution," he declared. He should feel at home in them. He started prosM'ctinK when he was 21 years old, and the west was almost as young. That was in 1864.

"Heal prospectin Jacks, too, he claimed, after the exhibition. "Notice how they balked at going past all those people in the grandstand. Arent used to crowds, thut's why.

Driver of the coach was Tom Oreen, of Walnut, another famous old pioneer and one of the last of the drivers for the noted Coast Line Stage company, and later associated with the stages of Santa Catalina Island. Vigorous and hale, Mr. Green demonstrated what a reel driver can do with a six-horse team.

Seated beside Mr. Green on the box was K. A. Spiegal, of Los Angeles, a real 49er. Dressed In the red 'shirt and broad hat of the period, he was a most picturesque addition to the pageant.

It had been planned to have other real 49ers here, but It proved impossible, perhaps because of the reason given by Mr. Spiegal.

Jacobus, efficient dnector of Pomona's library.

Group Pictures Among them are many group pictures, and whenever one of these flashes on the screen, there is a vast humming and noise of exclamations. "Why, there's Ella! or George, or Harry, or some familiar face long lost to view. Then nothing will do hut that the exhibition must be halted while each and every one of the group is Identified and anecdotes related of them.

More fun than a picnic, is the consensus of opinion following a visit to this booth. The Pioneers register, installed in this booth, continues to prove a i highly attractive feature, both for reading and writing. On the reception committee at the booth yesterday were; 9 a. m. to 1 p.m.
