Ihr. Mary Walker.

A Washington dispatch says: That irrespressible nuisance known as pr. Mary Walker has a revolutionary claim bill which she wants passed, and hence she is haunting the marble room of the senate a good deal. The other day she sent in her card to several senators and some of them came out, among others Mir. Evarts Mary Walker is an un- attractive looking specimen of her sex, mostly comprised of skin and bones, with d sallow complexion. Her hair is sort Of snuff color, and her thin black coat and trousers make her look odd, indeed. Both Senator Evsrts and Mary took rocking chair and sat in the cen. ter of the room. It must be admitted they cut queer figure. The New York statesman sat with folded hands and feet crossed; Mary crossed her legs and talked rapidly, while the senator listened without smile. Senators passed, looked at the spectacle and left the room with q broad grin on their faces. Logan laughed out loud after he was out of hearing. It was picture for an artist, and should be entitled "The way we're bored"

Newspaper Mei s, Trials

One of the greatest trials of a news. paper mans life arises from the fact tha, all the shams of the world make the newspaper office their customary stamp ing ground. Cranks of all shades and types congregate there and harass the weary toilers with their senseless rawlings Dumb meanness is there too, which wants to get its Wares praised in the edi. torial column and thus escape paying for an advertisement. Crack-brained, addle-pated philosophers file in, with stories as long as their hair and as gloomy as their finger nails. People wonder that newspaper men are irreli. gious; but for my part wonder that a newspaper man, confronted as he is, day by day, with the pettiness, the meanness, the folly of mankind, believes in any. thing! Were it not for his training at his mothers knee out on the farm, les sons which can never be entirely effaced, he would cease believing altogether Talmage's Sermon.

His brother is the owner of very rich mine in South America, and had told William not to trust his life in Sonora, but to give that mine up and his brother would send him $2o,ooo to go to South America. He went, however, to Sonora, with fatal results. There are several letters At the post office for him.

That shoot.

There was big crowd out at Agricul-
tural Park yesterday to witness the
pidgeon shooting match between Col. Il.
Durham Of the st. Elmo, and Mr.. j. +.
English of San Francisco. Out of a
dozen live birds Mr.. Durham brought
down 10, but there being dispute as to
one of them it was left out of the count,
as he was very easy winner anyway.
Mr.. English only brought down birds.
The young gentleman is reported to be
crack shot, but he is obliged to wear
glasses, and for some reason these
awkward appendages at best were very
rebellious yesterday, aud were the
cause of the marksmen losing many
birds.
Col. Durham made generous use of
the handsome prize for which the con.
test was waged. All the boys got some
of the $3.50, coin, although in liqui-
fed form.
1t is said that at the beginning of the
contest good deal of money was put
up, but after the first few rounds the re-
suit became painfully apparent to the
hackers of the San Franciscan.

THIS SPLENDID TRACT is In the very heart
OF Los Angeles. but one block west from
Pearl street, and situated on Eleventh.
Twelfth and Pico streets, adjoining on the
latter street the elegant grounds and man
sion of Mrs. Foreman.
THE HowLAsD ELRcrRIo Moron RAILWAY
Is now an assured fact on Pico street; the
rails are on the way here and the cars will
be running In sixty days
The price OF these lots is exactly one-haii
OF the sum asked for those adjoining on the
east, and which are unimproved.
The success of the Homesteads OF the
Southern California Land Company Is
strictly owing TO the lou rate at (Which they
place their properties before the public and
the fact that they offer only grstciass city
locations. The high prices asked by middle
men for lots are avoided. The Company
critics gain handsome profit after the d.
vision OF the Homestesds.
The sale OF this tract is on the homestead
plan (see law of 1892, as was the Ghilds
Tract and the Urmston Tract. The land is
sold as an entirety and delivered over to
the subscribers with all the Improvements
Of villa residences. planked sidewalks and
electric lights, without further charge than
the amount received In the aggregate from
the subscribers, each one OF whom has a
vested right In the entire tract.
The meeting of the subscribers for the
distribution of these lots is fixed for 0cto
Der 4th, 1886. The proceedings will be in
accordance with the agreement recorded in
the subscription book to the tract. and
signed by the purchasers.
No narrow streets. ALI streets aud ave-
nues are sixty fest wide.
The street railway on Pearl street. at the
corner of Pico street. is within one block
OF the tract, and in sixty days Colonel How

How Main street Land Is Given
ANVRV.

Fourteen ear.old Seeding orange
trees have an auction value. SIS each
is an extremely low figure. No farmer
would contract to grow them for that
sum. 1t would not begin to pay him for
his labor. In fact he would ridicule
such an offer. Twelve trees to 5Oxll9
foot lot at that price would equal $3.50.
The city improvements, such as ten
beautiful dwellings, heavy plank walks,
electric lights, etc., nearly exhaust the
difference between $3.50 and $3.50, the
price OF each lot on the Cooperative
Nursery tract. The owner therefore
asks less than cost of improvements; the
land is thrown in free. This is why the
offer of the Cooperative tract is the
lowest ever made in this city. There is
not capitalist in Los Angeles who
would agree to furnish like improve.

This is forced sale, otherwise no such
price would be made. The reason is

scribers have already realized what we
say. A large proportion of these lots
are already sold. The remainder are
