1t is stated that the ladies', in great

City Fathers, with a numerous y
signed petition for cross-walks on the

A large number of communications
were received here yesterday from va

A letter from a clerk appears to day
complaining that the Sunday law is
violated, and that several stores keep
"a back door OPEN" A gentleman
called last night with the same COM

town in California of this size there
are some stores who do little busi-
ness on Sunday morning This is
the clerks affair, not ours.
The prospectus of a Directory of the
City and County Of Los Angeles sjust
about to be issued. 1t is conceded by
everybody that a good work of this
kind is much needed, and Mr.. Wad-
dingtOn, who has undertaken to get it
up, promises that it shall be as perfect
as labor and care can make it. The
last Directory was not good. That is
no reason why the public of Los An
geles should not give their support to
one which promises to be credit and
of real benefit to the city.
