A Suggestion to Young Lawyers.
There is young lawyer in the
city who once practiced the pro-
fession in Atlanta. In front of his
door hung brand new sign, bear
ing the guilt inscription that told
his occupation. The young lawyer
sat in his Office for two months and
not a single client called. After
many days of weary waiting the
young attorney finally concluded
that there was something wrong
about his sign. Acting upon
mental suggestion he took the sign
down one night and beat it until
the lettering was quite faint and
then replaced it. A good practice
followed.

The Repetso Case.

A very interesting case Is being tried
at present in Judge Cheney's Court.
Alex. Repetto died in the latter part Of
1883, leaving an estate variously esti'
mated from one hundred to two hun
dred Thousand dollars. He willed the
bulk Of his estate to his brother residing
in Italy. Among other triAing legacies
he left small property and few hun
dFed dollars to a party, designated in
the tsstament as Timotso Repetto After
the probate of the will Castiliian lady
presented herself to the Court, claiming to
be the wife Of deceased. and demanding
a family allowance, But the lady re-.
treated from the holy precinct of Justice
upon the disbursement to her Of some
few hundred dollars, and the written
acknowledgment that her claim Of wife
hood was a sorry pretext.
There now heaves in sight a young
gentleman Of some nineteen summers
who asserts that he is the illegitimate
offspring of the lady aforesaid and the
deceased Repetto-in fact the same in
dividuaI named as Timoteo Repetto in
the last will of Alex. Repstto, and rs
the above mentioned legatee.
He claims to have been adopted as
the illegitimate son OF Alexander-that
the will was made by the testator when
mentally incompetent to execute such an
instrument. and thatsai instrument was
unholily prompted and executed by the
executor Of the same.
Should the young gentleman succeed
in his present struggle he will acquire
large fortune and become subject for
strife among the impecunious ladies Of
our city. In anticipation Of his success
we take pleasure In stating that he is
by no means deficient in personal ap-
pearanee and agreeable manners.

then Italy has been sought out by
invalids from all parts OF Europe for the
sake Of its mild winters, abundant fruit
and balmy airs.
How like all this is Los Angeles at
the present moment. From all parts OF
the world people are coming in focks to
spend the winter in this sun-kissed
southland, or better still to remove all
their household gods and cast in their
lot among the Angelelos and be OF them

First came Mathes, with 90 touris.sj
then followed the Raymond w hitcomb

on Monday night with 257 adults and
l20 children. Monday there came in
also an immigrant party of nearly 100.

of the week by passenger trains from all
directions was a large number. There
