Carpenter, of Santiago, and Ramon F. Aguilar. The semi-monthly meetings of the Parlor are regularly well attended, there is money in the treasury, and the Parlor is in a healthy condition generally. THREE FINGERS SEVERED:—The many friends of Arthur Fox, who is connected with the ostrich farm at Los Angeles, and who spent a prolonged vacation at the Landing this summer, will hear with regret of an accident which befell him last week at the farm. While engaged in cutting feed for the birds, the knife accidentally caught his left hand and severed three fingers. The accident was very painful, but he endured his suffering bravely. DOWNEY FAIR:—We are in receipt of a complimentary invitation to the Fourth Annual Fair of the Los Angeles County Agricultural Association to be held at Downey on October 4th to 7th inclusive. The Secretary, H. A. Scott, says that this will be the best Fair of Southern California, and we AN ENDORSEMENT.—Mr. D. J. Sorenson left last week for South Riverside to assume the superintendency of the water system of that place. The position was unsolicited by him, and was tendered by the Land company solely because they believed that Mr. Sorenson had the qualifications necessary for the responsible position. In this they are undoubtedly correct. It will take more than a theorist to inaugurate the water system of South Riverside, and in their chosen official they have a man who is not only thoroughly practical, but who has devoted a long time to the study of the water question, and who will bring to his work the experience thus acquired. We do not doubt that he will be a successful official, and be a valuable acquisition to the new settlement. TIME TABLE:—The California Southern and California Central R. R. Companies have issued a time-table for the Riverside and Santa Ana branch line, as follows: It will take effect to day, Thursday, the 15th: Trains leave San Bernardino at 6:30 P.M., arriving at Riverside at 7 P.M., Orange at 8:48 P.M., and Santa Ana at 8:58 P.M. Leave Santa Ana at 7:15 A.M., arriving at Orange at 7:25 A.M., Riverside at 9:10 A.M., and San Bernardino at 9:40 A.M. ANAHEIM'S EXHIBIT:—At the first annual exhibition of the Los Angeles County Pomological Society which opened at the Hazard Pavilion in Los Angeles on Monday evening the exhibits from Anaheim were as follows: L. Parker, oranges, grapes, pears, lemons and a 90-pound watermelon; Lionel Browning, peaches, quinces and apples; George W. Burton, apples, peaches and quinces. PICNIC:—There will be a big picnic at Anaheim Landing on next Sunday, the 18th instant, the details of which are given in our advertising columns. It will be the grand wind-up of the season, and the projectors are determined that every one who is present shall enjoy themselves. Max Nebelung has built an addition to his residence on Lemon street. Mr. de Morainville is now subdividing Mr. Reiser's vineyard into town lots. Mr. Luedke has had the ground plowed up and prepared on the lot on which he proposes to build his cottages.

The officers of the Reiser, President; J. Hident; S. Littlefield, thwaite, Secretary. The above gentle Messrs. Melrose, Kro constitute the Board o Joseph Rodick, an Co., was unharnessing Downey Fair — We are in receipt of a complimentary invitation to the Fourth Annual Fair of the Los Angeles County Agricultural Association to be held at Downey on October 4th to 7th inclusive. The Secretary, H. A. Scott, says that this will be the best Fair of Southern California, and we believe him. The Fair held last year at Downey was worth many miles of travel to see, and under the impetus of the boom we doubt not that the Fair this year will be surpassingly fine. Ancient Relic — The Anaheim correspondent of the Express says: "Our fellow townman and live real estate dealer, F. H. Keith, has a valuable relic in the shape of a silver smelling bottle, or rather box, which belonged to Mary, Queen of Scots, at the time she was beheaded. The box is in the shape of an oblong socket, heavy silver and nicely carved, and inside is another box with lid of solid gold. The outside lid bears the monogram 'M. T.' Collectors would no doubt pay a big price for this relic." Another Subdivision — The G. W. Burton tract, better known as the Cowan place, is being subdivided into lots of five acres and upward, which will be sold upon the distribution plan. Eighteen shares will be offered at $3000 per share, and the purchasers will distribute the different subdivisions among themselves by lot or otherwise. None of the subdivisions are worth less than the amount asked for the share, and there is the additional incentive of the prospect of drawing the splendid two-story brick residence, worth alone about $7000. Dwelling Houses Wanted — Some Anaheim people are always complaining that but few strangers come to Anaheim. There is a reason for this which we will explain. Men have come and are daily coming to Anaheim in advance of their families to secure dwelling houses for them to occupy on their arrival. As no suitable vacant houses can be found here, people are forced to depart. The new houses which were built on the Center tract are all occupied. Thus it is evident that building cottages is a safe investment. Let us have more dwelling houses. Fix Up: — Speaking of local improvements — sidewalks, hedges, ornamental trees and shrubbery, grass plots and such like—a southern contemporary pithily and pointedly says: "Strangers seeking homes in a new State do not care to go to places where there is no local enterprise. They do not like to be compelled to do what old citizens ought to have done but have failed in doing. No matter what the natural advantages of a place may be, if its residents are unprogressive and slow of advancement, instant, the details of which are given in our advertising columns. It will be the grand wind-up of the season, and the projectors are determined that every one who is present shall enjoy themselves. Max Nebelung has built an addition to his residence on Lemon street. Mr. de Morainville is now subdividing Mr. Reiser's vineyard into town lots. Mr. Luedke has had the ground plowed up and prepared on the lot on which he proposes to build his cottages. A new postoffice has been established at Sunland in this county with Wesley T. Moulton as Postmaster. The wine-making season has commenced, and wagons laden with luxurious grapes are common sights on our highways nowadays. Ah Foo, the imbecile Chinaman recently discharged from the Stockton Asylum, has been sent to the County Jail for twenty days for stealing lumber. The Western Union Telegraph Company is preparing to string another wire from Los Angeles to San Diego to accommodate the increasing business. The J. M. Griffith Company will have in operation at their mill in Anaheim in a few days a set of rollers for rolling barley. This will be a great convenience. While riding a horse one day last week, Fritz Pfahler, a son of A. Pfahler, accidentally fell from the animal and seriously sprained his arm. Preparations are being made to ship another carload of crude oil. One of Gade's teams has been busy for some days past hauling the oil from the petroleum district to the depot. H. P. Larsen, the carpenter, has been at work covering Mrs. Smythe's residence with new rustic lumber, and when the improvement is completed the house will probably be painted. Supreme Master Workman Jordan, of the A. O. U. W., has been invited to visit Los Angeles. J. S. Gardiner, Receiver of Anaheim Lodge, is one of the Committee of Invitation. The Zinfandel grapes which Dreyfus & Co. have been crushing during the week have weighed as much as 25 per cent of saccharine matter. Grapes have developed sugar much earlier in the season than usual. While returning from the dance at Orangethorpe on Saturday night, E. Padderatz was accidentally thrown from his buggy, and one of the wheels ran over his leg, but he was not injured. There is great activity at Dreyfus & Co.'s winery at present. Half a dozen or more teams loaded with grapes can be seen at almost any time during the day standing behind one another waiting for their turn to unload. Joseph Rodick, an Co., was unharnessing yard last Friday even other workman, when known one of the horses started to run away. John Taegel was last od about the face, from afterwards peeled.

They do not like to be compelled to do what old citizens ought to have done but have failed in doing. No matter what the natural advantages of a place may be, if its residents are unprogressive and slow of advancement, capital will not generally be attracted to such centers." Anaheim Awakening.—The Express is pleased to say: "Anaheim, one of the oldest and loveliest towns in the county, is again experiencing an awakening. The Los Angeles Land Bureau, of this city, some months ago opened branch offices there under the management of Mr. F. B. Wilde. So tightly, however, did old-time Anaheimites hold on to their property that but little could be done toward launching Anaheim and its advantages before investment seekers. John Landell, of the Anaheim Land Bureau, the leading operator there, says now that people are waking up and good property is being constantly listed. Anaheim made a very good showing in the market last week. Incorporated;—Articles of incorporation were filed on Monday by the Richfield Land and Water Company. Richfield is the proposed new town on the Shanklin ranch. The purposes for which this corporation is formed are to acquire, purchase, buy, sell and improve the Hazard subdivision of the Shanklin tract; to subdivide, manage and improve said lands; to acquire, purchase, develop, maintain and dispose of water and water rights; to construct reservoirs and pipe lines for said water; and to do all things necessary and proper to further the interests of the corporation. The number of directors to be five, and those appointed for the first year are Jesse Yarnell, W. H. Bonsall, H. T. Hazard, George O. Ford and H. C. Witmer, all of Los Angeles. The amount of capital stock to be $112,500, divided into 1125 shares of $100 each, of which $83,700 has been subscribed. While returning from the dance at Orangethorpe on Saturday night, E. Padderatz was accidentally thrown from his buggy, and one of the wheels ran over his leg, but he was not injured. There is great activity at Dreyfus & Co.'s winery at present. Half a dozen or more teams loaded with grapes can be seen at almost any time during the day standing behind one another waiting for their turn to unload. Theo. Rimpan and family have vacated the house which has been their home for over twenty years. The removal is but temporary, however, and is done to give the carpenters an opportunity to make extensive alterations and additions to the structure. T. S. Grimshaw has the contract. D. W. Hudson, the live real estate agent, has formed a business connection with J. M. Hixson, of Los Angeles, whom everybody remembers as the senior member of the former commission house of Hixson, Justi & Co. Hixson is a big operator as well as a big man, and we expect Hudson to do even a larger business than heretofore. J. P. Greeley, teacher in the Placentia school, was driving home at night this week in his car, and as it was very dark he could do nothing but follow the road, when the cart struck a plank that protruded into the thoroughfare. The only damage done was that the shafts were broken. Water pipe to be laid in the town of St. James was hauled from the Anaheim depot to that place last week. A force of men were at work on Sunday digging a trench at Olive Heights near Antunes' saloon some eight feet deep and four feet deep, in which to lay the railroad company's water pipe, it being more than two feet in diameter. The care and taste which W. A. Witte has displayed in beautifying the grounds about his residence is commendable. The lawn is beautifully laid out, a pyramid of large rocks has been built near by and a croquet ground has been arranged under the spreading branches of a stately walnut tree. S. S. Pederman returning from his trip to S.A.F.E., a few days his new store opened while in the city inspection. Miss Gray, a teacher well recommended by appointed to the interim the Anaheim Public Cowan, resigned. A gentleman named used the fixtures and gave at the depot former Bros., and will open wagons of goods in a short time. A large number of yesterday's train and Planters' Hotel, wheeled took the best care of them. W. H. Lyon, of Lyon San Diego last week treated with typhoid hope for his speedy recovery. Preparations are being made many of the bridges in improvement that is going on by express to the Los Angeles shipments will consist. Mr. Larsen has the construction of a residence which will cost $1500. Kullogg Bros. are no time to the real estate making a success of them. Miss Mary Cowan has teacher in Brooklyn Angeles. Robert Menzel is buying his house on Broadway lot with a neat fence. W. M. McFadden of a two-story residence HOTEL DEL CAMPO. THE EUPHONIOUS NAME OF THE NEW HOTEL. All Preliminaries Arranged and the Work to be Pushed Forthwith. Among the real estate transactions filed for record in the office of the County Recorder on Saturday was the following: R. and M. Luedke to Anaheim Improvement Company—Vineyard Lot E 2, Anaheim, less strip for Railroad Depot purposes; $20,000. On the same day the Company also purchased the adjoining 20 acres from Melrose & Kroeger, and endorsed the survey which had been made of the two tracts, and transacted a quantity of business tending to a speedy commencement of work on the hotel. The contract for the brick work has been let to Chas. Schindler, who promises to push the work with all possible haste. The important and delicate work of giving the hotel a name was solved by naming it "Hotel del Campo," which is a euphonious and smooth-sounding appellation. The land surrounding the hotel is to be known as the "Hotel del Campo Tract," and the map thereof has been duly recorded. These lots are now for sale at very low prices, and can be purchased through any real estate agent or from any member of the Company. It is as certain as the rising of the sun that the first purchasers of these lots will at least double their money within six months. There is going to be a revolution in real estate matters here within a very few weeks, and there never was a better opportunity than the present to make profitable investments. The officers of the Company are: Theo. Reiser, President; J. H. Bullard, Vice-President; S. Littlefield, Treasurer; A. Goldthwaite, Secretary. The above gentlemen, together with Messrs. Melrose, Kroeger and Hamilton, constitute the Board of Directors. Joseph Rodick, an employee of Dreyfus & Co., was unharnessing his team in the barn- BOOMING ANAHEIM! EXTENSION OF THE STREET CAR LINES. A Few of the Sales of the Past Week, The Pasadena syndicate, represented by Mr. John McCloughan, which a few weeks ago purchased the Zeyn, Eichler and Feliz tracts on Los Angeles street, on Saturday last purchased through the agency of A. Rimpau the fourteen acres of vineyard adjoining the above tracts at $225 per acre. The purchasers are enthusiastic over Anaheim's prospects and are going to invest a large amount of money here. Their plans contemplate a subdivision of these tracts, and the erection of a number of first-class cottages thereon. They also propose, with the co-operation of other property owners in the vicinity, to extend the street-car line through Los Angeles street. They are rutilers, and their advent into Anaheim has had a cheering effect upon land-owners here. We had only time last week to briefly announce the sale, through Keith & Ruddock, of the Fred Hartung fourteen acres to another Pasadena syndicate, represented by H. W. Chynoweth. This syndicate purchased some time ago an adjoining twenty acres from A. E. Hendricks. These tracts will also be subdivided and placed on the market, but not until substantial improvements in the way of cottages, etc., have been made. There is a great inquiry about Anaheim being made in Pasadena, and it is more than probable that a number of "deals" will be made in Anaheim property shortly by Pasadenaans. McDuffee Bros. of Los Angeles have purchased from Mrs. Lecroq thirty acres in West Anaheim adjoining Alexander Henry's place. The tract has already been subdivided into house lots and quite a large number of them have been sold. Mr. G. C. Brock, of the firm, has been here for several days arranging for an extension of the street car line past the property, and he reported to the Gazette yesterday that the project was as good as accomplished. The hearty ANAHEIM SEMINARY. ITS BUILDING AN ASSURED AND SPEEDY FACT. The Dominican Sisters to have Charge of the Enterprise, The rumor announced in the Gazette some months ago to the effect that the building of a seminary was contemplated in Anaheim has at last crystallized into a fact, and we are now authorized to announce that the work of constructing the building will begin at once. Sister Pia, Lady Superior of the Dominican Convent of San Francisco, was in Anaheim last week and selected the location for the seminary. It is two acres on the northeast corner of Vineyard D & on Palm street. The purchase was consummated on Monday, and Sister Pia has gone to San Francisco from which place she will send plans for the building within a week or ten days. The first building to be erected will probably cost not less than $10,000, and additions will be made thereto as required. Sister Pia gives assurance that the seminary will be ready for the reception of pupils by the first of next January. The establishment of this institution here is a flattering testimonial to Anaheim, because it was secured after an active competition with other towns in Southern California. The question of climate was one of the chief factors in deciding the location, as the Sisters are always mindful of the health of their pupils. A very thorough investigation was made into the meits of the different towns, and it is therefore complimentary to Anaheim that it has secured the prize. An acre of land has also been purchased adjoining the two acres secured by the Sisters, for building a Catholic Church of imposing appearance, and of a style to correspond with the seminary buildings. POSTAL PROGRESS. Anaheim Postoffloe Raised to the Third Class. Postmaster-J.S.Gardiner has been notified The officers of the Company are: Theo. Reiser, President; J. H. Bullard, Vice-President; S. Littlefield, Treasurer; A. Goldthwaite, Secretary. The above gentlemen, together with Messrs. Melrose, Kroger and Hamilton, constitute the Board of Directors. Joseph Rodick, an employee of Dreyfus & Co., was unharnessing his team in the barnyard last Friday evening, assisted by another workman, when in some manner unknown one of the horses was frightened and started to run away. Rodick fell down and the horse trampled on one of his arms. The imprint of the hoof is yet visible on his arm, but he is now able to resume his duties. John Taegel was last week seriously scalded about the face, from which the flesh afterwards peeled. He was washing tanks at the Dreyfus winery, and in lifting a vessel of boiling water above his head to pour it into a tank, the bucket slipped from his hands and the hot water was precipitated on his face, with the above result. Owners of orange orchards in this vicinity are plowing, cultivating and harrowing their groves at present. Orchards in which this work is diligently prosecuted are invariably looking thrifty and fresh. The new crop of oranges now on the trees is large, and the growing fruit in most instances is at present as large as common-sized apples. A dance was given at the new wine house on Pfeninger's corner, in Orangethorpe district, last Saturday night, on which date it opened for business. Quite a number from Anaheim, Orangethorpe and North Anaheim were present, and the party enjoyed themselves to a late hour. C. Z. Culver, of the Palmyra Hotel at Orange is a landlord of unbound hospitality. He has invited the Common Council and city officials of Los Angeles to take dinner with him on next Wednesday, and they have accepted the invitation. We learn that D. W. Fish has already a tenant for his new house on Broadway. The building will not be ready for occupancy for some weeks yet, but this goes to show what a great demand there is for suitable dwelling houses. S. S. Pederman returned on Tuesday evening from his trip to San Francisco, and in a few days his new stock of goods purchased while in the city will be open for inspection. Miss Gray, a teacher who was exceedingly well recommended to the Trustees, was appointed to the intermediate department of the Anaheim Public School, vice Miss Cowan, resigned. A gentleman named Norcross has purchased the fixtures and good will of the store more than probable that a number of "deals" will be made in Anaheim property shortly by Pascalenans. McDuffee Bros. of Los Angeles have purchased from Mrs. Lecroq thirty acres in West Anaheim adjoining Alexander Henry's place. The tract has already been subdivided into house lots and quite a large number of them have been sold. Mr. G. C. Brock, of the firm, has been here for several days arranging for an extension of the street car line past the property, and he reported to the Gazette yesterday that the project was as good as accomplished. The hearty assistance of all the property owners along the route has been promised, and the work of construction will begin as soon as material can be procured. There was recorded on Monday a deed from E. Stein to J. Kreiss of Lots 7 and 8 in Vineyard D 5 for $2500. This is the bakery property. Gardiner & Porter report the sale of Lots 57 and 58 in Blk E, Hotel Del Campo tract, to John Schaumann for $475. D. W. Hudson reports the sale of Lots 53, 54, 55 and 56 in Block E, Hotel Del Campo tract, to W. S. Fish. Elizabeth Armentrout has sold to Daniel C. Stephens part of Lot 49, Anaheim Extension, $1000. Lots 13 and 14 in Block 27, Fullerton. J. E. Karnes has sold to Pierce & Littlefield ten acres in Orangethorpe for $1600. Theo. Rimpan has sold to H. Dinkelspiel lot 37 in block B, Center tract, for $400. S. L. Chilson has sold his 60 acres in Orangethorpe to Isaac Lyon of Yuma, A. T., for $16,000. P. U. Schaumburger reports the following sale: W. W. Herbst to Oscar Renner—2 acres on Los Angeles street, adjoining the Albers tract; $1050. J. L. Schumacher reports the following sales in Fullerton: F. U. Schaumburger to H. Cahen—2 acres with house, $2000; Lots 1, 2, 3 and 4 in Blk 22 to Mrs. Langenberger, $1500; Lots 5 and 6 same block to Jean Allec, $450; Lot 20 in Blk 29, $315. Mr. Schumacher also consummated the sale of a rancho in San Diego county for $94,000. The Red-Headed Girl and the White Horse. San Franciscans, according to a correspondent of the San Diego Union, are suffering from the red-headed girl and white horse craze. It will be remembered by readers of the Gazette that some months ago we reprinted in these columns an amusing article from the New York Sun wherein it was gravelly alleged that whenever one saw a red-headed girl on the street he was certain, by looking around, to see a white horse. A rather amusing incident in connection with this superstition happened during a buggy ride to Los Angeles which Dr. Bullard and the writer enjoyed some time ago. Somewhere in the neighborhood of New River, and at a considerable distance from any town, and it is therefore complimentary to Anaheim that it has secured the prize. An acre of land has also been purchased adjoining the two acres secured by the Sisters, for building a Catholic Church of imposing appearance, and of a style to correspond with the seminary buildings. POSTAL PROGRESS. Anaheim Postoffice Raised to the Third Class. Postmaster-J. S. Gardiner has been notified that the Anaheim postoffice has been raised from a fourth-class to a third-class office—from one over which little Vilas has control to one which must be filled by appointment of Grover himself. A petition, signed by everybody in town, has been forwarded asking the President to appoint Dr.Gardiner. He is a painstaking official who attends to the business of his office in a manner satisfactory to all the patrons of the office. This promotion is all the more significant when it is remembered that the postoffice established some time ago at Olive Heights took away considerable patronage from the Anaheim office. It is evidence that our boom is real, not artificial. Complimentary to Anaheim. A 95-page book has been published for gratuitous distribution at St. Louis by the G.A.R.of Los Angeles, at a cost of $1700. Specimen pages have been sent to us, from which we see that Anaheim has been allotted more than its proportion of space, and that it is given a very flattering endorsement. Our people ought to more readily appreciate this compliment when they bear in mind that Anaheim has not contributed a dollar towards the expense of publishing the book. In one paragraph of the article occurs the following: "To the immigrant there is probably no place in California that offers greater inducements and attractions than Anaheim. With a charming climate, the best of soils which are adapted to the growth of everything grown in the temperate and semi-tropic climes, and an abundance of water for irrigating and domestic purposes, it commands the attention of all those who are seeking homes in this glorious country." Wells,Pargo&Co. There are packages for the following persons in W., F.&Co.'s Express Office: Dr.Hardin,Mrs.J.Hartung.David Yorba, Rev.J.B.Tombea.J.B.Moulliot, David Cahill.

Miss Gray, a teacher who was exceedingly well recommended to the Trustees, was appointed to the intermediate department of the Anaheim Public School, vice Miss Cowan, resigned. A gentleman named Norcross has purchased the fixtures and good will of the store at the depot formerly kept by Kellogg Bros., and will open with a large assortment of goods in a short time. A large number of strangers arrived on yesterday's train and registered at the Planters' Hotel, where mine host Mason took the best care of them. Mr. A. Goldthwaite is cleaning his block on the Santa Fe tract, on Olive street, preparatory to making substantial improvements. W. H. Lyon, of Lyon & Ennis, went to San Diego last week and returned prostrated with typhoid fever. We earnestly hope for his speedy recovery. Preparations are being made to repair many of the bridges in the town limits, an improvement that is greatly needed. John Bush has commenced shipping game by express to the Los Angeles markets. The shipments will consist of quail and rabbits. Mr. Larsen has the contract for the construction of a residence for A. E. Hendricks which will cost $1500. Kellogg Bros. are now devoting all their time to the real estate business and are making a success of it. Miss Mary Cowan has been appointed a teacher in Brooklyn Heights school, Los Angeles. Robert Menzel is building an addition to his house on Broadway, and enclosing his lot with a neat fence. W. M. McFadden of Placentia is building a two-story residence which will cost $4000. It will be remembered by readers of the Gazette that some months ago we reprinted in these columns an amusing article from the New York Sun wherein it was gravely alleged that whenever one saw a red-headed girl on the street he was certain, by looking around, to see a white horse. A rather amusing incident in connection with this superstition happened during a buggy ride to Los Angeles which Dr. Bullard and the writer enjoyed some time ago. Somewhere in the neighborhood of New River, and at a considerable distance from any house, we passed by a very red-headed girl who was walking along the highway. We had just time to tell the Doctor about the superstition referred to, and to remark that this was certainly one of the occasions when the rule would fail to work, as there was not a horse of any color in sight, when from behind a hay-stack standing solitary and alone on the plain there meandered—a white horse! Good Advice (From the Lugonia Cltrograph.) What Anabeim wants to do now is to make the most of her opportunity. Advertise, advertise, advertise! Print 10,000 or more small folders descriptive of the place and then distribute them. It is a bad idea to print literature of that kind and then store it in the garret. There should be lithographs or photographs of the various striking buildings and scenery prominently displayed throughout Los Angeles and elsewhere. Such things attract even more attention than printed matter, and it is a most effective way of advertising: — Anaheim Gazette. Brother Melrose's modesty prevents him from naming the only way in which advertising does the most good. If the Anabeimers will make up a purse of $1000 for the Gazette and take the amount out in six months' subscriptions to that paper, every paper to be sent East each week, there will be ten times more return from it than from any method that can be devised. Special editions and special pamphlets are looked upon with suspicion, generally justly. The regular edition of a regular paper is the cheapest and best method of advertising any place. Try it and see if we are not right. Buy your straw hats at Cahen's. If you want a good pair of boots or shoes, go to H. Cahen. He keeps the best. New fresh honey in the comb at Wallop's. "The Model Grand" the newest and best stove, at Bennerscheidt's. Northam, Cahen & Nebelung keep the best grades of wine, brandies, whiskies and domestic and imported cigars.

The street cars stop in front of Northam, Cahen & Nebelung, when you can leave your orders for groceries, hardware, tinware, etc., etc. For cigars and tobacco of the finest and best quality go to Helmsen's. This is the weather for ice-cold lager—fresh and sparkling. Call at the Fountain. For the very choosest confectionery—always new and fresh—call at Helmsen's. President Cleveland says that the California stove, Sunset Range, beats even Blaine. For sale at Bennerscheidt's. Remember that H.

The Santa Fe will build a fine station house opposite the Park, which will be ornamented with a perpetual fountain supplied by artesian water. Flowing artesian wells obtained at 100 feet. Being located 10 miles from the Pacific ocean, the breaches from the coast make it the finest summer as well as winter climatic resort on the coast. The many natural advantages of this large tract of land, such as having arctesian flowing wells for irrigation, good rich vegetable and sandy loam for its soil, make it especially desirable for parties wanting $1, 10 or $20 acre traps for fruit or gardening purposes.
