The Wilmington Enterprise pays
the following merited compliment to
the Clarendon Hotel of this city, J. A.
Brown, proprietor: "The travel to
Southern California, as all know, has
been very great, and is still increasing.
And all know, furthermore, that good
hotel accommodations are very essen
tial features in pleasant travelling
experience. A failure in this respect,
even in the most delightful locality,
leaves an unpleasant remembrance.
One frequently hears a traveller say,
such and suca place is charming,
but the hotels are eXecrable. Those
visiting Los Angeles will find no OPP
portunity for such remarks if they
stop at the Clarendon. This hotel is
pleasant in all its appointments, and
is one of the best, if not the best, pub
lie houses to be found in Southern
California;
