fyou have any friends in the East
who want to obtain reliable informa-
ton in regard to this county, or know

Los Angeles county, be sure to call at
the HERALD office tomorrow and pro-

The Rev. Mr.. Zahn has just COM
menced the erection of frame build
ing on Spring street, between Fourth
and Fifth. The building will be so
constructed as to be used both as a
church and a dwelling house. The
building will be thirty-four feet front
and sixty-eight feet deep, and will be
one story high. The front part of the
structure will be used as a dwelling
house by Mr.. Zahn and family, while
the rear part will be used as a church.
The church room will be forty-four
feet deep and the full width of the
building, and the front part will be
divided into four rooms, with very
wide hall running through to serve as
an entrance way to the church.. The
plan is certainly very original one,
and very economical. The whole
building and the lot on which it stands
will be paid for by Mr.. Zahn out of his
own pocket. He certainly seems to
know how to use his money to good
purpose, for we have long been in need
of German church in our city.
