Fronti' and jingled sundry bells as
an indication OF q hourishing busi-
ness. Whenever Sammy Braunhardt
was sent to Sacramento by his en-
ployers he lodged in Freddy's hotel,
and was always accommodated with
sample room, so that he could exhibit
his commodities to customers. A few
years ago Sammy was sent to the
Legislature from the Tar Flat district,
and when he arrived in Sacramento
he registered at Freddy's hotel as
Hon. Samuel Braunhardt. Before
gazing at the register the proprietor,
with his usual affability, welcomed
his guest and exclaimed:
We'll, Sammy, suppose you want
sample room?'
This observation was made in the
presence of several prominent gentle
men, and almost staggered the lilli-
putian Assemblyman. He turned in
dignantly upon his host, and with a
look that was calculated to freeze the
blood in the veins of the genial hotel
keeper, calculated: "Sample room be
blanked. sir; want no sample room.
Why, sir, he continued, in a voice
pitched in high key, l am not the
plebeian representative of q CONNER
cial house. l am not laden with
tooth brushes and underwear.
want you to understand that 1 was
sent here by the people; am a men,
ber of the Legislature"
AS he finished this burst of oratory
he strutted out to the curbstone and
lighted fresh cigar, while the man
who was destined to preside over a
San Francisco police court, in dazed
condition meandered into the cuisine
and ordered the chef to give the hotel
chicken an extra dip into the soup for
luck.
He also tells another story, which
will tend to irritate the ambitious
young Hebrew. When this descend
ant OF the great prophet was running
for the Legislature he was opposed
by man Of the name of Whitcomb
AS Samuel is of an excitable dispo'
sition and easily worried, his good.
hearted friends would come to him
with this consoling remark:
"Now, Sammy, it amt no use youl
running against Whitcomb. He is 9
| newspaper man and devil of nice
fellow. He viii, beat you sure. He
is great favorite."
Every day some one or other would
come and tell him this, till finally
one day, in q saloon where Sammy
was doing the honors, friend came
| up to him, and with a lugubrious
countenance, told him the same tale
Throwing down his glass, Sammy
yelled:
"Dod rot it. I tell you it aim
Whitcomb, of the Call; it's a doggon'
rusty old druggist" and he repeated
his remark with so many assevera
tions upon the Whitcombs in genera
that if his deceased nanesakes hat
heard one-tenth OF them, and if h,
had any influence with Abraham
his own little Samuel will never res
in Abraham's bosom.

Notes OF Progress ON the Seaward
Ranches.

EDITORS HERALD :-One-tenth of
an inch of rain fell at Mount Olympus
on Tuesday night, and half as much
last night (TAursday).
The hotel at Sunset is built up to
the second floor; it will be 100 room
house, cottage style of architecture,
two stories and attic. The contractor
is Mr.. Dave Of Los Angeles. The
work is being done in good and sub
stantial manner; and the site is one Of
the loveliest imaginable. 1t is about
two miles from the Palms and near
the line of the Los. Angeles County
Railroad, between it and the foot
hills.
The Palms "a prohibition town. is
driving and thriving as why should it
not? With none of the drawbacks
backs which accompanies free
distribution OF the ardent" Mr..
Ford, the principal contractor
there, has a comfortable residence,
adorned with modest taste and ele-
gance by the help of charming wife,
son and daughter. He is full of busi-
ness, with several contracts on hand,
and more in sight. The town is one
OF the most eligibly located for busi-
ness or residence of any in the coun-
| ty. Sentous Brothers are doing the
heaviest business of any wholesale
butcher; south of San Francisco.
Their houses and grounds are al
ranged in an economical and conven-
lent shape for the work, and this is
conducted in as neat and cleanly q
way as is possible for such a business.
The Ranches la Brea and Rodeo de
las Aguas are occupied by stock and
gardeners and other farmers, some of
whom have ten year leases of the
land. There are two towns laid out
on their confnes-Ynetca and Mo-
rocco.
The Los Angeles County Railroad
runs diagonally through these two
great ranchos. The Mclaughlin mar
row guage is headed in the same di-
rection, and the Cold Water Canon
Railroad (the next connecting link
between the Union Pacific Railroad
and Ballona harbor) makes a nearly
airline from Soledad Caf1on to the
sea.
Speaking of the Mclaughlin Rail
road reminds us that the road appears
to be run on a queer principle, paying
| no attention to the advertised time
table Of leaving the outer end. There
appears to be- no rule to gov srn the
departure from Weyse's corner ex-
cept the whims of the operators.
There were nine persons kept waiting
at that corner one morning this week
from 7:30 to nearly 10 o'clock, be-
cause the employees did not choose to
run to the end of the road of a cold
morning. F. IS.

tiLut cE-IEE, Mass, Feb. 22.-Thc fish
cries treaty is the subject of much com
ment. All avow that the rights of the
fishermen have'beeu sacrificed to the inter
est of Canada. The president and Secre-
tary Bayard receive much criticism. The
fishermen declare the treaty Il disgrace to
all American citizens. They said Fortune
bay and other parts of Newfoundland
where the fishermen have always had the
right to procure bait and all necessary ar
tcles Of outfit, land dry fish and tranship
cargoeS are by this arrangement prac
ticaily shut to them, more especially For
tune bay which drawing a line from
Carnaigue head to the southeasterly end
of Brunei island, thence to Fortune head
at Sir Charles Hamilton sound, will debar
fishermen from privileges which they
claim the treaty of ISIS had already given
them. The opinion of many is that an
Indignation meeting should be called to
protest against the ratification of the
treaty which destroys the last right OF the
American fishermen.
