A Splendid Piece Of Property

The Howes Tract on Jef-
ferson street, including the
handsome home residence
and charming grounds of F.
G. Howes, Esq, Cashier of
the Los Angeles National
Bank, to be subdivided-
375 large lots (one-ffth of
an acre each) with nine
beautiful villa residences, in
cluding the large cottage of
ten rooms of Mr.. Howes;
graded streets, ETC., to be
sold on the Homestead plan
at $3.50 per lot, in payments
Of $40 monthly without in
terest; with first payment of
$50.
The great success of the
Southern California Land
Company, Baker Block),
with the CHILDs TRACT, URN
sToN TRACT, CRY CENTER
TRACT, WILLIAMSON TRACT,
ELEVENTH STREET BLOCK and
COLUMBIA COLONY has been
owing to the wonderfully
low rates at which this pop
ular company has placed
first. class, well located prop
erty before the public.
1t is refreshing to note in
the midst of the boom in
real estate, that one reliable
firm not only gives to the
people homestead lots at
about one-third the price
charged by others, but also
performs all it's promises to
the letter in the building of
houses, ope n ng out of
streets, putting up electric
lights and extending the i'm
provements Of our city to it's
farthest legitimate bounds.
The maps of the Howes Tract will not
be ready for some days; but in the mean
time all will be hustle and activity on
this beautiful property; surveyors will
be laying off the streets and avenues,
builders will be placing houses and
pushing forward at once all the improve
ments promised, and the Tract, now al.
most all covered with vines, orange trees
and splendid foliage, will put on met
ropolitan look and keep up with it's
beautiful surroundings of costly build
ings and cottage residences
The Howes Tract fronts on Jefferson
street, west of Vermont avenue. The
location is very popular one, in the di-
rect line of the city's rapid growth, and
will soon be rea a;hed by lines of street
railroad and the Motor Road on the
west.

on the decline. The business of
Congress has changed of late wears.
and it is now dsne more by the con-
sultation of leading members, by
committee, and by caucus. Speeches
do not have much influence on leg
islation now, and this influence
seems to grow less from year to year.
The Senate has passed a bill to
appropriate from the treasury $500,
900 for a monument to Abraham
Lincoln. Another has passed for a
monument to General Grant to cost
$25o,oo0. 1t has been suggested
that this money would be spent in
more appropriately if put into a me
mortal bridge across the Potomac,
to bear the names of these good and
great men. 1t is held that the car
rying out of such a plan would be
climax to our great river improve
ments, that are, one day, in spite of
lob rolling river and harbor com
mittees, to be the pride of the nation.
If our late ex-Presidents Lincoln
and Grant could now be consulted
in regard to this matter, there is
little doubt as to what their decis-
ions would be- A great, useful
structure like bridge from the
Capital of the nation across the
Potomac to the soldiers national
cemetery at Arlington Heights
would be grateful perpetuation of
their memories. II would be far

cold, and to be criticised perhaps as
inartistic.

WASHIRGTO LETTER.


From our regular correspondent.
Many congressman are now in a
disturbed state of mind, lest they
will not be returned to their seats
next fall. They are waiting anx-
ionsly for news of denomination.
Quite number of them, it is
thought Of their dilapidated fences
at home, makes them anxious for an
early adjournment.
The passage Of three approqria-
ton bills by the House last week
made them hopeful Of an early re
lease, and Speaker Carlisle is quoted
as saying that it is possible for Con
gress to adjourn by the 25th of June.
That will be less than five weeks.
The prevailing opinion, however, IS
that Congress will not get away be-
fore August. Work is far behind,
and while many members would
like TO be among their constituents,
others want time to make Congress
sioual records for the approaching
canvass.
A good joke was perpetrated upon
Senator Vance by Senators kenna
aud Salisbury On entering the
Senate chamber Thursday morning
these gentlemen saw Il beautiful
basket of flowers upon the North
Carolina Senator's desk, and before
the latter came in, removed 1t to the
desk of Senator Beck. When Mr.
Vance entered, they called his at
tcuuon to the Kentucky Senator's
.hora tribute" Oh, yes, remarked
Mr.. Vance, in his disrespectful, jo-
vial way; Beck bought tit somewhere,
That's the way all these fellows get
flowers, Mr. kenna suggested that
Mr. Vance examine the card at.
tach,d TO the basket. When he
discovered that the flowers were for
himself, Mr., Vance took possession
Of them with the remark that there
were exceptions TO all rules.

disarmament and disarmament of
the Greek armies has been ordered.
But at the seat of war the greatest
activity prevails. There is fighting
along the entire line every day, and
reports Of tie killed, wounded and
missing are regularly sent from both
sides. How long such a state of
affairs can last is not much Of q
problem. Either the Cabinet will
have to stop talking peace, or the
army will have to stop fighting in a
very short time. The acts of ma
ton, like those of an individual,
speak louder than words. At pres
ent it looks very much as if the army
were inspired by the counsels of a
great power like Russia that wants
war, and that it will carry the day
in spite Of the peace Cabinet.

Cost of the Recent Strikes.

The strike epidemic is rapidly
subsiding. While it is true that
some sporadic cases still remain, the
great army of strikers, which in the
entire country numbered in the
neighborhood of 100000 from the
last week in April to the middle of
May, has now dwindled to less than
10000, and will, without doubt,
steadily continue to diminish from
this time on.
The direct and indirect losses at.
tending this unprecedented series of
strikes have been simply enormous.
The best estimate which BrddStreet'S
paper is able to make from carefully
collected data indicates that the dl-
rect loss to the men in wages has
been no less than 100000 or at
the rate of a million dollars a week
TO Chis must be added &2,50O,000
loss to employers from Interruptions
to business, 100000 in deferred
or cancelled contracts and probably
$50, 100000 for new buildings whose
