1t is with regret that we announce the
death of Clarence Boyd, the two year
old son of Mr.. f. H. Boyd, of the Pa
cific Hotel, which occurred yesterday
from cerebro spinal meningitis The pa
rents have the sincere sympathy of a
large circle of friends in their sad be-
reavement.
Gracious me- Why, what is that
Only 80 cents for this handsome hat
Yes, at Peoples store.
Just before going to press we learn
that party of gentlemen connected
with the Southern California Horticul-
tural Society arrived here this afternoon
for the purpose of arranging for holding
the annual fairs of that society, hereto
fore held at Los Angeles, in this town.
We will give further information to-
morrow.-San Bernardiao Times.
We received pleasant call yesterday
from MIR. Il. S. Raker, of the San Fran
cisco Journal Of Commerce, who is en-
route to Arizona and the East in the in
terest of his paper. Mr.. Baker, who
was here in January, informs us that
Los Angeles shows greater evidences OF
improvement and more solid advance
ment than any other place on the Coast.
We direct the attention of our readers
to the double column advertisement of
Mr.. j. c. Bright, which appears else
where. This enterprising merchant has
cut big swathe in our business circles
of late owing to the extremely low prices
at which he sells goods notable for ex-
cellence of quality and variety of fabric.
His patrons always encounter the ut
most courtesy and patient attention.
The card of Captain George A. Clark,
Notary Public. will be found under New
To-Day. Captain Clark desires us to
say that the statement that he had re-
signed, published in yesterdays Com
mercial, is an error. He intends to hold
on to the end of his term and may be
found at his Office ready and willing to
administer caths or transact any other
notarial business that may be required.
County Assessor Venable informs us
that he finds the Cinnamon, this year,
less willing to make their returns
promptly than heretofore. In previous
years he always found them polite and
ready to furnish all desired information
at once. This year, however, they have
a don't care dash air and think moth
ing Of keeping him waiting while they
attend to any trivial matter that may
come up. He thinks their independence
grows out of Arthur's veto of the Anti
Chinese bill.
DR.. X. ID. Wise, who has been absent
in Europe for the past year, in attend
ance upon the most noted medical and
surgical Institutes of the old world, is at
present travelling in the countries align
ing the Mediterranean. He has seen all
that is to be seen in the principal capt.
tails of Europe, spending much of his
time in London and Paris; and he will
come home, in September, with large
additions to his stores of medical and
surgical knowledge, which, by the way,
were already considerable.
Those of our people who have occa-
sion to insure their property should not
overlook the Home Mutual Insurance
Company, of California, of which MIR.
Charles V. Hall, No. 3 Arcadia Block,
Los Angeles street, is the agent. 1t is
one of the most reliable institutions of
the kind in the United States, and
those who patronize it have the pleas
ant consciousness of knowing that they
are helping along meritorious home in
stitution. 1t is as good as gold, and its
Los Angeles representative is one of our
most promising and energetic business
men.
We had the pleasure of visit yester.
day from Hon. John p. Irish, one of the
leading Democrats of Iowa. He is said
to be one of the most eloquent aud mag
netic orators of the section in which he
lives, and has had for years the honor OF
being set up as the Democratic candi.
date for Governor, to be bowled down in
true Iowa style. He did us the honor
of paying us a call yesterday, accompa-
MED by Mr.. Blum, also of Iowa. We
heartily hope that his California expert
ences will be both pleasant and instruc-
tive. He expresses himself as much
pleased with what he has seen of this
section thus far.
We regret to learn that Mrs. l. B,
Ferguson met with an accident yester-
day afternoon by which she received Sc.
we're injuries. She had been visiting a
sick friend on the lower part of Seventh
street and had started to drive home. In
crossing a little gully on the street the
shafts became detached from the buggy,
which was overturned by the jar, throw.
