An Eurekan at Honduras.

Mention was made in these columns
some two months ago of the selection by
the Los Angeles Mining and Smelling
Company OF Frank Robbins, formerly
Superintendent Of the Eureka Con. mine
and smelling works, as manager OF their
properties near Togucigsipa, Honduras.
Mr.. Robbins left at once for the section,
and yesterday his father G. Collier Robbins,
received q letter from him dated August
z. from which we are permitted to make
the extract: Yesterday / visited the
mine / am to superintend. the ,Animas.

millions. ItIooks big. Il has been badly
worked, but l think / can s~traighten 1t
out, and make something OF It,. 1t would
take q long time to tell you my ideas Of She
country in full. Suffice il TO say that 10 Is
beautiful. The people are kind and polite
and anxious TO give Americans every pos
sible show to open up the mines, and l
should not be surprised IL In a few years
many emigrants from the States came here
to settle and build homes. The climate
in the mountains, so far as / can judge, is
delightful. I wish / had q lot OF good
Americans here with me to teach the peo-
pie, who are quite willing TO be taught.
l would want good Americans; not bad
ones. One trouble is q lot OF mean devils
come down here who would be In jail II at
home, and who instead OF helping the
people to build up their country try 70
debsse them to their W low level. Oi
course everything is crude here now. but
l hope to see o change for the better"

Mid-November is at the door, and
with the first frosts in the Atlantic
States and those OF the midland
country, the terrified people are fast
fleeing away from the cold winters OF
their homes, to spend the winter
months among the orange groves and
under the sunny skies Of Los Ange-
les. Already the advance guard has
reached here in several very large
parties. There are more right at the
door, among these being the first
party for the great Raymond hotel,
which is to be opened in few days
with a great banquet.
All reports indicate that the veal
will be noted as one OF the most re-
markable in our history in the way
of visitors from the East. A grea
many of those coming are intending
to remain with us permanently. One
party got here day or two ago, ano
out of hundred or more, all but five
intend to stay with us. Those whC
think the influx of people to Semi
Tropic California has ceased, are very
greatly in the wrong. The growth o
Los Angeles is Just begun.
