a hill, and the Society propose to
take advantage of this by only par
TALLY grading it and terracing the
front down to the street, as shown
in the cut above given. With
broken flight of broad stairs and
ample landings intervening,
the ascent will be made very
easy. On the rear the lot
is approachablc on a gentle grade
by way of Sand street, and all of
the goods to be placed on exhibi-
tion will doubtless be hauled up in
this way. This will also form the
carriage approach, and walk for
pedestrians may also be laid along
Sand street. From the Pavilion
hill magnificent outlook over the
city and valley is secured. Coupled
with all these advantages, the loca-
tion has the merit of being most
convenient. It is only few nun
dred feet from the junction OF
Main, Spring and Temple streets,
where all the street car lines find a
focus and which is really the heart
of the city.
A franchise for street railway
up Temple street past tho Pavilion
| lot Is now in existence, and we
may expect to see this road bull
at an early day, affording addition
a, conveniences for approach.

HISTORY OF THE ORGANIZATION

HISTORY OF THE ORGANIZATION.
In March, 1878, a call for meet
Ing Of the fruit growers of Los An
geles county was drawn up by l..
n. Holt. who then resided at Po-
MONA, having In charge the Pomo-
~ Opchard Company's property.
This call was extensively signed by
rosidsnts Of Pasadena. Los Angeles
and other localities, and was pub
lIshed in the Los Angeles papers.
The meeting was held pursuant to
this call At Good Templar Hall on
Saturday. April 2Sth, at II O'Clock
4. H., and was largely attended.
An adjourned meeting was held at
the County Court room on the eve-
ming Of the same day. At the af-
ternoon session Committee on
Permanent Organization was ap-
pointed.
On the 10th of May following
the Committee incorporated the
society known as the Southern
California Horticultural Society,
With an unlimited membership,
but NO capital stock. In Septem-
ber Of last year the society started
the H0vticuiturist, thIrty-two
page magazine. which has since
been placed on q permanent foot
Ing, and now has n circulation OF
], 200 copies.
In October of last year the Hor.
tioulturnl Society united with the
Agricultural Society and held a
Fair 1t the Alameda street depot,
which proved Q success every way
except financially, and only failed
ID this direction because of the i'm
ponse expense IN hitting up the

H.vy he Struck n Bonanza
Sacramento Bee, Aug. so.

Sacramento Bee, Aug. 5O.
While a colored man was engaged
this morning in cleaning out the
rubbish which had accumulated in
the premises formerly occupied by
the Dime Savings Bank he came
across forty parcels of what he sup
posed were $50 rolls of silver, where
upon he informed those for whom
he was working that had struck a
bonanza which would pay as well
as Sierra Nevada stock, and which
amounted to $500. OF course there
was considerable anxiety on the part
of his employers to see where the
coin was, whereupon the colored
man showed them the rolls which
he had found laid away in one cor
ner. An investigation followed,
and the chagrin and modification
of all concerned can better be inn
agined than described when it was
ascertained that the rolls consisted
of lead pipe of the diameter of half
dollar, done up in brown paper
wrappers. 1t is sample of how
the Dime Bank managers gulled
the public day after day by making
display of supposed coin, done up
in paper, in their window.
