why Not Improve west Lake Park I

why Not Improve west Lake ParkT
EDITORS HERALD-Why does not the
grading of the streets in West Lake
Park continue? The work was pushed
for awhile and then suddenly dropped.
1t is very important that We have at
least one attractive park which our East
ern visitors may be shown. West Lake
Park has 30 many natural advantages
that it seems very short-sighted policy
not to develop it's resources.
1t is on our main east and west
thoroughfare, Seventh street, and already
has a natural lake that could easily be
made great center of attraction. 1t is
of sufficient size, thirty fine acres, to be
ample and at the same time not so
large as to entail any great expense in
maintaining it. Besides it is in the west
part of the city and directly in the line
Of the city's growth. 1t is certain that
within short time after the completion
of the Seventh-street Cable Railway,
which is promised before next April,
that that part of the city around the
park will be thickly populated. 1t is
highly important that at least some trees
be planted in time to gain the advantage
Of the winter rains; but from present ap-
pearances it seem that this hope is vain.
Los Angeles owing go much prosperity
to the winter tourists, it is especially i'm
portant that it should have attractions to
keep them in the city after they arrive.
Itis undoubtedly owing to our meagre
attractions that many tourists coming
from the East, intending to spend the
winter in Los Angeles, become weary
after few days ar d go to San Francisco
to spend the winter, change that they
never contemplated until after arrival in
Los Angeles. The city would get back
100 per cent. of all the money it expends
on parks in one year, and let us hope
that something will be done i'm
mediately. ***

ley district, and who know all about the
matter, and their reports regarding Miss
Freeman's bravery and other incidents of
the storm are concurrent a1mostwith the
statements of the Teacher. 1t is assert
ed as o fact that the roof was partially,
IL not wholly, blown off the school house.
When Miss Freeman was looked to for
protection by the scholars, she besought
the aid of two young women who were
her pupils. They helped the children to
their homes and then took Miss Freeman
to her house. The honors and praise
were thrust upon Miss Freeman, and be-
cause credit was given to her alone for
her bravery in the first reports sent out,
the people have believed she was the scle
means of saving many precious lves.',
It will be remembered that Miss Freeman
publicly protested against the subscrip-
tion of money for her benefit, and it is
not known whether she has really ac-
cepted the Bee fund subscription or not.
1t is reported that Miss Freeman is con-
sidering the question of rendering to Miss
Louise Royce the entire amount of cash
subscribed to the Freeman fund. This
would be a very graceful act, for it is
well known that Miss Freeman's family
is wealthy, while Louis5 Royce will need
q large fund for her maintenance
through the rest of her life.

A Paymaster Robbed,


DETROIT, April Pit has leaked out
that the paynaaster Of the Detroit, Grand
Haven and Milwaukee railroad, Fred
Thomas, met with a peculiar experience
during his recent official trip. He went
over the route, making the usual pay
ments On his return he placed the box
in the safe in the company's Office, lock-
ing both that and the vault. The next
morning whenh 9 opened up and examined
the contents of the box, there was a
shortage of 5000. Where or how The
money was distracted is liable to remain
q mystery. All who had access to the
safe or o right to handle the box are
above suspicion, and :ho conclusion is
that some adroit thief found u way to get
at the plumber at some time during the
trip The hope of detecting the offender
was so slight that it was decided to keep
the matter quiet.

DEADwooD, Oak, April PA disas-
trous fire occurred in Central City, two
miles from here, at 6 o'clock in the morn
ing, b (which the entire town, contain
ing in the neighbornood of 1000 inhab-
ftants, went up in smoke. The fire orig
mated in n restaurant located in the cen
tral part iof the city, and the buildings
being mostly frame and constructed of
pine, the haffies spread inevery direction.
Deadwood was ~telephoned TO for aid and
responded quickly by sending hose
and hook and ladder companies, but ow-
ing to an insufficiency of Water, the fire.
men were unable to arrest the destroying
element. The town is peculiarly located,
the business houses being situated along
one main street, which runs up the
gulch, md the residences on the hillside,
which in some places are SO steep as to
be almost perpendicular. The flames
swept from the main street up the hill
side, licking up the fine dwellings in no
time, n igniting stumps and trees far
up the hills beyond the limits of the
town. Only one business house and two
or three residences are left standing. |
The inhabitants were left entirely home
less, n many without their breakfast.
Relief committees were formed at once |
IN Lead City and Deadwood, and sub
seriptions were raised and provisions fur
nished.
Among The buildings burned were the
Central City National bank and two or
three good mills. The loss is ~variously
estimated at from $1,000 600 to $3.50, 900,
and the insurance is very small. 1t is
said to be the most disastrous fire that
has occurred in the Ellis since the great
Deadwood fire Of September, 1879.
