street improvements.

Yesterday the City Surveyor was en-
gagged in running line from the Plaza
along Bath street to Alameda, with a
view to the continuation of Main street,
and the ultimate extension of this thor
oughfare in straight line to an inter-
section with Downey avenue at point
not far from the bridge.
The difficulty and danger attendant
on trip to our fast growing suburb of
East Los Angeles are patent toresidents
as well as the subject of frequent re-
mark among visitors. 1t is pleasant to
reflect that the press of the city is not
called upon to chronicle with frequency
the occurrence of severe or fatal acci-
dents to persons passing in vehicles
along San Fernando street from the
junction of Upper Main and Ala
media streets, but that it has not
been compelled to do so is mainly for
tuitous circumstance.
If the contemplated extension of
Main street should be carried into effect
it would result in the following advan-
taees to the public: The line being a
straight one from the plaza to the bridge
itwould be, necessarily, the shortest pos
siblebetweenthese two points. Although
vehicles would still be obliged to cross
the track of the Southern Pacific Rail-
road, they would not be compelled, as
they are now, to pass alongside of it for
. considerable distance at point where
the frequent passage Of locomotive en-
gines renders such passage unsafe. The
removal of the main track of the street
railway, or the building of another,
would of itself be an acceptable boon,
and would be sure to follow. The line
referred to, after reaching Alameda
street, passes over level region, and
one unoccupied by buildings, save one
or two small structures. We may add
that both this line, and that via Buena
Vista street, must be opened sooner or

NINETY miles of track is all that is
lacking to make through communication
between Los Angeles and New Orleans
complete, and the gap will be closed by
the first af September, the work being
difficult for twenty miles only OF
the distance. But the tide of commerce
waits for no railway corporation, and,
on Thursday and Friday last, thirty
seven carloads of California wheat
passed Tucson on its way to the Crescent

Didn't Want to go to Heaven.
[Hartwell ga. Sun.l

Not far from Hartwell, on the Caro-
lima side of the river, revival meeting
was going ON at country church. A
party of young men were engaged in a
railway survey and could not attend
meeting in daytime, but went at night.
After stormy sermon by the preacher,
who gave vivid description of hell, its
climate and inhabitants, followed by a
red-hot exhortation from one of the
brethren, they literally stormed the fort.
One of the railroad fellows was sitting in
the back of the church, and the preach
er went up to him and said:
Don't you want to go to heaven?"
NO." he replied.
This Mortified the preacher, and he
said to the congregation:
"Here is young man who says he
doesn't want to go to heaven; now, my
friend, why don't you want to go."
Because l would have to die to 90
there"
