Letter From Mrs. Frank Leslie.
The subjoined letter explains itself
New YORK, May 20, 1882.

The subjoined letter explains itself:
New YORK, May 20, 1882.
EDITOR misunderstanding in Sep
tember or October last, Mr.. E. Conklin,
representing this house, entered into
certain business arrangements with per-
sons in the west, one condition of which
was that l would personally visit the
localities in which such arrangements
were made 1t is due to Mr.. Conklin to
say that circumstances made it impossi-
BILE for me to make the contemplated
trip at the time proposed, and that for
this reason, and not for any default of
his, the arrangements entered into by
him could not be carried out. The trip
however, will be made in the coming
autumn, and Mr.. Conklin is duly
authorized to represent the house in
making contracts subject to approval
here, based upon that understanding
1 am sir, very truly yours,
Mrs. FRANK LESLIE.

Desmond, the Halter, invites the at
tention of those who desire goods in his
line to his splendid new stock of hats
and caps of all grades, styles and prices.
An experience of thirteen years in the
business, in Los Angeles, has enabled
him to select his stock with an accurate
knowledge of the needs of this section.
As he always has heavy line to select
from, and depends upon quick turns and
small profits, the public show good
sense in giving him their steady patron
age. "Nobby styles, moderate prices,
is the legend inscribed over the door of
Desmonds, Temple Block, opposite the
United States Hotel. Parodying the
words of Dante, "He who enters there
sees hope to the fore, " for he gets goods
which are simply nonpareil at the lowest
standard quotations. my3tf
