Mr.. d. S. Johnson, conductor of
street car No. l, found pair of gold
spectacles In his car on Tuesday,
which he left at this office for return
to the owner. We have given them
to the owner and feel that this public
notice is due Mr.. Johnson for his ac-
tion.
In the Mayors Court yesterday
morning an assault and battery case
was tried and the two individuals en-
gagged paid $14 SO and SO SO, respect
lively, the city being $24 ahead by the
melee. Later in the day, three horse
men were arrested for fast driving, but
were discharged with an admOnition
from the presiding officer, Mayor
Beaudry.
Mr.. J. NJ. Donaldson, of the Santa
Monica stage line, informs us that the
road to the sea-shore is in good condi-
ton, with the exception of the portion
inside the city limits. Other persons
inform us that the only repairs needed
are in the city limits, which our city
authorities should Immediately look
after The travel to Santa Monica
should be accommodated
Among the recent arrivals in this
city is Mr.. w. E. Newcomb, of Tama
City, Iowa, who is SO well pleased that
he bought of Kimball & Co. 80 acres
of land, five miles South of Los An
geles. He intends to bring his family
out Immediately, and open broom
factory in this city. His first stock
will be brought from San Francisco,
but he expects hereafter to raise his
broom corn on his farm.
La Cronica, the Spanish organ Of
Southern California, appeared yester-
day enlarged in size and greatly i'm
proved in typographical appearance.
Of the contents of La Cronica we cam
not say too much, as it is brimful Of
fresh news, live reading matter and
paying ads, making it prominently
the organ of the Spanish population
of this section. Much credit is due to
its enterprising proprietor for its pro-
gress: and we have no doubt its nu-
merous readers will show their appre-
citation by extending its circulation.
The Los Angeles Homestead Associ-
alton are offering for sale lots in one
of the pleasantest sites in Los Angeles.
The situation, to the North of the
Morris Vineyard, between Washing
ton and Pico streets, combines all that
any purchaser can ask in altitude,
commanding view and romantic sur
roundings, and their terms are liberal
in the extreme. Each lot comprises
nearly half an acre, and may be OBJ
tanned for $500, payable in easy install
ments of $40 monthly. For elegant
homesteads we can heartily recon-
mend this property, and the easy
terms offered put these lots within
the reach of all. All who desire in
formation will do we'll to call on the
gentlemanly secretary, DIR. Ed. A.
Preuss.
Mr.. Prldham, agent lOf the Coast
Line stages, informs us that hereafter
the coaches of the California and Ari-
zona Stage Company will go to Pres
colt by way of the Mojave, and will
pass through Hardyville, Mineral
Park and other mining camps in the
Hualapai country. The coaches of the
Coast Line will hereafter not cross the
Susannah mountain, but will go
through Pleasant Valley and by the
Conejo ranch. This is a much easier
route, and by 1t the time to Santa
Barbara will be reduced about two
hours. In about ten days the compa-
ny propose to put on line Of four
horse wagons between Anaheim and
San Diego. The wagons have already
been ordered, and they should arrive
here by the time indicated above. A
saving of two hours, by this new ar
rangement, will also be effected be-
tween Los Angeles and San Diego.
