CANE PRESENTATION.
After the distribution of the prizes,
which were three times as many as were
ever distributed before in this Bezirk,
Jacob Kuhrts was called for, and
received beautiful ebony cane with an
ornamented gold head, presented by the
Turn Verein Germania of Los Angeles,
for his gratuitous services in obtaining
so large an attendance of Turner's from
abroad at this annual meeting Of the
Turn Bezirk.
Mr.. kuhrts is modest man and was
overwhelmed with this unexpec ed ex-
preston from his fellow Turner's. He
briefly acknowledged the present in a
few words and left Others to make the
speeches.
Although the Turner'S from San Fran
cisco. Stockton, Nara, Oakland and
other places were pleased with the re-
cepion and the scenes which they saw,
one of the most pleasant surprises was
that of the Sacramento Turner's on their
visit to Los Angeles. The press of that
city has steadily given forth the opinion
that Los Angeles was but an enlarged
village, with no particular elements of
growth or attraction. With this opinion
the Sacramento Turner's arrived here,
but found large, prosperous and grow
ing city, surrounded by beautiful and
highly productive country, which no
other city in California possesses. Their
surprise was very great at this most un-
expected condition of things, and they
all unite in stating that they have been
treated in a liberal and bountiful style,
far beyond their expectations, and that
the city and country far exceeds any,
thing that they had previously con-
ceived. They all return to their homes
with pleasant recollections of Los Ange-
les, her people and her vast resources.
1t is pleasant TO meet with educated
gentlemen like these visiting Turner's,
who know good thing when they see
il, and who manfully and frankly ac-
knowledge all the varied elements Of
wealth and progress which they have
discovered in aud around the City of the
Angels.
