might have proved most serious ac-
cident. Some six or seven steps from

headlong upon the floor, the entire
weight of her body falling upon her
face. DR.. Mckee was hastily sum-
moned, but fortunately found no bones

and good nursing for a few days, when
she will be all right again.
The Express says: "Downey City,
the name of the little town that has
grown up at the terminus of the Ana
helm Branch of the railroad, is quite
thrifty and improving little burg.
There are some twenty houses grouped
together on fine site, including all
classes of country business stores. The
and the walls are nearly completed.
1t will be quite a presentable structure
when finished The splendid and
thickly-settled country which sur
rounds it insures it permanent posi-
tion as a good centre of trade. Moth
ing can be more picturesque or beau
tiful than the roads in that vicinity,
passing between lines of locust, cot
tonwood and ash trees, completely
shading them"

The Russian River Flag has the
following item, which relates to DR.. L.
III. Rose, an afOretime resident of Los
Angeles, the designer Of our High
School building and really the father
of our public school system. The Flag
says: "Last Tuesday, at the residence
of DR.. T. Fl. Rose, corner of Fitch and
Hayden streets, we saw rare and
beautiful flower called the globe cac
tus. The bloom of the plant is COM
monty known by the name given
above, from its growing in the form
of a globe. We believe the globe cac-
tus blooms but once a year, and the
flower lives only a day. A stem a
half or three-quarters of an inch in
diameter shoots out eight or ten inches
from the plant and terminates in a
flower about the size and shape of
white lily. with two sets of cream and
Dink-tinted leaves, eXquisitely shaded
in various degrees of color. Besides
snany choice plants and flowers, DIR.
Rose and wife are surrounded in their
beautiful home by a great variety of
evergreens and shade and ornamental
trees of larger growth than those of
any other residence in the city"
