CfeVelamdsB Treasury Bankrupt-Ehs
 Aldermen Hssue Notes 0f the City for
 S9OOs s0OO-The A1isslnG TreasuFer Re-
 ported to Have Sailed fer Europe.
 CLEVELAND, Dot. 24-There is about $450, ,0O0 belonging to the city deposited in half dozen banks, but the bondsmen of Thomas Axworthy, the defsultipg treasurer, have attached it, and the result is that the city is bankrupt. Kaufman Hayes, member of the council, has been placed in charge of the office and will continue to act as treas urer until Axworthy's successor is elected. At present there is only $8. 900 in the city's vault, and when that is paid out the treasur- er's office will be closed for financial repairs.
 A late despatch reports that the board of aldermen at special meeting tonight adopt ed 8 resolution declaring the sfics of treas- urer vacant and empowering the mayor to issue the notes of the city to the amount of $200, 0,000. This resolution will pass the board of councilmen on Friday and the mon ey thus provided will relieve the city's pres ent financial embarrassment.
 A. B. Donkey, Axworthy's confidential business manager, has just returned from New York, where he went to investigate the matter. His theory is that Axworthy went to New York with the securities. on which he hoped to realize in order to settle with the city. Failing to get the money he went to Canada rather than return to Cleveland and face his shortage like man. Mr. Conkey declares positively that Axworthy was not 8 specu1ator, as has been asserted. He saw all of Axworthy's correspondence and he knows that the latter lost no money on wheat.

HOLLYWOOD

The beautiful foothill suburb of Los Angeles
at Cahuenga Pass is higher than the highest
point in the city. This most lovely spot Is sit
uated six miles west of Los Angeles in the FROST
less belt. 1t possesses the finest soil in the
woodworking equal to it elsewhere. 1t will
grow successfully the most delicate flower or
tender plant in midwinter, without irrigation;
in fact we never irrigate this foothill land. 1t
does not requi,e g it. 1t is a very healthy loca-
ton; No malaria. but little fog, pure. unmol-
| ested ocean breeze every day in the year. Pure,
soft water. Therefore no more healthy location
can be found anywhere. Fine view OF ocean
vessels, city. valley and mountain. We defy
competition in all Of the advantages that go to
make DESIRABLE SPOT FOR A HOME! 1t
cannot be beat. Yes, it cannot be equaled. 1
know this is say ing great deal. l am willing
to stake my reputation on what say. am re-
siding at Hollywood, and intend to make it our
permanent home. number of fiue buildings
are now being built at this point. Water is be
ing piped. Cement sidewalks are being put
down. The Cahuenga Valley Railroad is fin
ished to this place, and six trains each way are
now running on this road. See time table.
This railroad is running in connection with the
Second-street Cable. Halffare tickets will be
sold to persons residing at Hollywood, thus af
fording splendid connection with the city. The
Los Angeles County Railroad will soon be COM
pleted and running to this place.

The Last Session of It's Grand
Council.
The Fourth Grand Council of the
Young Mems Institute, which has just
completed it's labors at Stockton, was a
complete success. The society, which is
only four years old, has membership of
more than 5000 on the Pacific Slope,
and was represented in its council by
200 delegates from California, Oregon
Washington Territory, British Columbia
and New York. Perhaps the legislation
most important to the order was the for
nation of Supreme Council of America,
to have charge of national scheme of
organization for the planting of institutes
throughout the Eastern States. The
honors awarded to Los Angeles by the
Grand Council are as follows:
Members of the Supreme Council, J.

A Holiday Tumble.

Three Mexicans in spring wagon
driving along Also street near Alameda
last evening, got into fight. They were
all drunk. The man who was holding
the reins did not see fit to stop the
progress OF the wagon because of the dis
agreement of its occupants, so they con-
tinued down Also street for several
blocks, exhibiting a lively fight to the
hundreds of spectators who lined the
sidewalks. At last one of the combat.
ants, Jose M. Lugo, fell over backwards
on the wheel. His antagonist was grasp
ing him around the chest, so they fell
out OF the wagon together. As Jose kept
his hold on the spokes of the wheel, the
spectators had some ground and lofty
tumbling thrown in with the pugilistic
encounter. After doing the pin.wheel
act once or twice the other Mexican fell
outward and Jose tumbled under the
wheel. 1t passed over his head, injur-
ing him quite severely. Officer Jackson
came up and brought Jose to the station
for medical treatment. He was booked
for fighting.

1t Passes Very Quietly in This
city.
Yesterday was legal holiday, and in
consequence all of the courts, banks,
Government offices and most of the busi-
ness houses were closed. There was no
celebration in the city, and the people
spent their time in quiet amusement at
home or at the sea shore. The train GO
ing to outside points were crowded, and
there was no life anywhere inside the
city limits. The work of constructing
buildings went on, however, as also did
the work on the cable roads, and the
number OF teams on the street was not
materially lessened. The retail stores
did not generally close, but there was
hardly any trade, not enough to justify
them in keeping open. The Committee
of Arrangements for the reception of the
Odd Fellows was busy in perfecting the
preliminaries for the exercises of next
week.

Fonr years ago, while the presidential
canvass was at white heat, so to speak, a
poor little waif Of forlorn and forsaken
kitten strayed into the national Democratic
headquarters in New York. The managers
and assistants quickly construed it as an
omen Of good luck, and the little kitten was
kindly cared for. 1t was nurtured on milk
until large enough and strong enough to
masticate and digest stronger food. Then
it Jared sumptuously every day on the best
the Hoffman House afforded. When the
result of the election in New York was
questioned the men at Democratic head.
quarters pointed to their mascot and de.
clared Cleveland would be President. When
the result was declared that cat was made
q prominent feature in the jolification pro.
ceedings. When the contest was finally
ended and headquarters abandoned, Capt
John Trainer, now secretary OF the library
commission, who had been assisting his
party during the canvass, brought the cat
to Washington, and II has been a favorite
at his residence ever since. II is now a full
grown and welldeveloped Democratic cat
1t is decorated with pictures of the Demo.
cratic candidates and bandanna collar
AS soon as national headquarters are open
ed for the pending fight the cat will be sent
to New York to become figure in the con.
test for Cleveland's reelection.

Solid on the Pacific Coast.

The Democratic masses in this State are
for Mr.. Cleveland. The policy of his ad.
ministration has given California interests
their first impulse, and almost their first
federal recognition for many years. Our
shipyards in this city have been EMPLOYED
In constructing cruisers for the navy, giving
lucrative employment to thousands OF men
and profit to their employers. Our inter.
national relations with Hawaii have been
maintained, securing for San Francisco an
annual trade of $11,O00,000 with that king
dom. The President has provided for the
permanent exclusion of Chinese, and. above
all his example has sweetened and corrected
politics and made decency in public life
possible, for the benefit of California and ali
other States, and the masses of the party here
thrill under his name ss under no other.
The party will win in California, for at the
polls the people will appear in their sovereign
capacity; their powers will not be dele
gated, and when the roll Is called in No.
vember and California is reached there will
be flashed wherever the wires go; "Groyer
Cleveland, Californis's choice for the Presi-
dency, eight electoral votes."-Saa Francisco
