Hon. Barney Woolf, Clerk of the
Supreme Court, yesterday decided
to accept the location rendered by
the Messrs. Hellman and Mascarel
for the sessions of that Court. Col.
r. S. Baker had offered ten rooms
in Arcadia Block, accessible from
Los Angeles and Arcadia streets.
and with an entrance from Main
street through the Baker block, for
500 a month. This offer was a
very attractive one and was con-
sidered very fully by Mr..
Wolf, The Messrs. He'll
man and Mascarel gave Mr..
Woolf the option of debating abso-
lutely the accommodations which
the Court would need, with the
privilege of naming his own price.
Mr.. Woolf, taking into considera-
ton the admirable location of the
new building, and the very liberal
authority given to modify the plan
to suit the incest requirements of
the Court, made an offer of $50 II
month to the Messrs. Hellman and
Mascarel for the ten rooms needed
by the Court. They bind themselves
to put marble mantels and wash.
stands, gas fixtures and fire places
in every room. The building will
be completed full month before
the Court will convene in Los An
geles, thus giving ample time for
the masonry and pIaster-work to
become dry. The Messrs. New
mark, we understand, had intended
to tender the third story Of their
block 1.-THE old Temple Block) for
the use of the Court, but SO many
notifications would have been ne
cessitated in the plan of their build
ing that, considering the very
moderate rental to which Mr.. Woolf
felt himself to be restricted, they
did not, at the last, think it worth
while to make any proposition.
The location selected cannot fail to
give very general satisfaction. 1t
is central, salubrious and pleasant
in every way for the judges.
