Official statement, or perhaps sem-ofllcia that
1t was not a deputation from tho club which
took part in the reception, but that what hap
pened was that number OF members by pri-
vate arrangement met at the club and proceeded
in carriages to Euston Square" Perhaps you do
not greatly care for this rectiication. But the
position Of this club is anomalous. 1t was
founded at time when the Liberal party was
q party, and not two parties. When Mr.. Glad
stone split the organization into two unequal
halves, the National Liberal Club was found to
contain majority of Gladstonians; perhaps the
only large political club in London which does.

The Home Rulers were freely elected members.
Presently the majority made an effort to capture
the club. 1t had tcen started as a fighting
machine. Why should it be neutral in the fight
now going onp The sober heads saw that the
step proposed would break up the organization !;
that the Unionist members would resign If the
club hoisted the Green Flag, and as organiza-
tion, went in for Home Rule and took part in the
electoral contests. So this scheme was defeated
by great majority at q special meeting called to
consider the subject.
All these facts and many more were published
In the papers at the time. Even report Of the
meeting was published; O novelty in cuo life in
London. The National Liberal, however con
tinues TO be a sort Of rendezvous for Home-Rule

MONROYIA.

EDITORS HERALD-Quite a revival oi
business and inquiry for real estate
have been noticed here since the Presi
dental election. Many strangers have
visited the city, and expressed their de-
light with its matchless situation and
climate. Some actual sales have taker
place, and number of important trans
actions are in course OF negotiation.
Tuesday night there was a spirited
meeting held here to take steps for the
establishment of an extensive cannery.
The fruit production is already so grea,
and increasing in volume so rapidly that
the demand for a first-class cannery is
exigent. 1t offers very fine opportunity
for capital, and our leading citizens are
enthusiastic in the project. Our capital
lists are ready to back their opinion on
this subject with their money.
Building improvements have gone
steadily forward here during the months
OF stagnation, and fresh start has been
taken. Mr.. Mulford of Los Angeles has
moved here and purchased a nice site foi
a home. His new residence will be q
very fine one. The Methodists are put.
ting up very handsome parsonage, and
minor buildings are going up all over the
tract.
Our population is steadily increasing,
and we shall soon vie with Pasadena in
every respect. The development of our
granite quarries will add very important
industry to Monrovia. The stone is un-
surpassed for building purposes.
We have quite celebrity here in Mr..
Arthur, OF Albion, Michigan. He is a
past octogenarian, OF large frame, as
straight and agile as an athlete. He
walks with an elastic and rapid step
which is the envy of our sprightliest
youths, and enjoys health which is al
together admirable. He has made his
home here, and feels as if he had dis
covered the true elixir which Ponce de
Leon vainly sought for.
From the large amount of correspond
eDce received here from Eastern people
this fall we are all certain that there is a
great interest felt in Monrovia by a
large portion of the people who contem
plate visiting Southern California this
winter. These inquiries are not con-
fined to persons of ordinary means, but
men of large capital have signified their
intention of coming here and taking part
in the coming boom.
The Grand Hotel is the bijou hostelry
of the county. Mine host Abbott has
popularized it with his excellent man
agement, and the table is a source OF
constant delight to its many guests. The
view from the veranda of this fine hotel
is one of the most extensive and sublime
in the State. JAMES H, LoFrUs.

A Fortunate druggist.

| Mr.. Edwin W. Joy for many years and now 5
prosperous druggist on the corner of Stockton and
Market streets in San Francisco, probably never
dreamed Of rivaling in wealth the medicine kings
| Of the country. But various rumors having been
floating around to the effect that he has struck 1t
big, an ErGmiaer reporter was detailed to unesrth
| the cause and after much difficulty uprayelled
| the following story:
Itseems that about seven years ago an English
physician great student of botany, located for
brief season in this city. His practice was not ex
sensive and yet the few cases of general nature
that came to him attracted no little attention. His
greatest success seemed to be in the treatment of
liver and kidney disorders, and yitiated blood. In
| fact his ability to cope with these common COM
plants was little short of the marvellous. He
seemed almost infallible, and his quiet, modest
| methods and his we'll kept secret was rs much
| mystery as himself After his departure about a
year later Mr. Joy determined to fathom the secret
and copying all the prescriptions he had filled for
the erratic doctor he began systematic analysis.
In his examination he discovered running all
through the prescriptions for liver and kidney
troubles, vitiated blood and stomach disorders

mia, SO simple and SO we'll known under homey

dissipate the suspicion that they were the active

his customers under the modest name Of joys
Vegetable Sarsapapilla. Immediately the sane
marvellous stories came back Of its astonishing
effects, and the mystery was solved. and the tax
it has created has already caused 1t to step into
| prominence and orders pour in daily from al!
over the coast. People seem to be taking It and

The number of London city mission
aries is now 4s3, and every missionary
visits ono a month about $50 families,
or z, 1900 persons. Their work is to pio-
neer a path among the most wretched
and debased of u fellow creatures, in
which the pastor may in due time fol-
low. Among the special duties of these
missionaries are to attend the deathbed
of those who are dying uncared for, to
distribute tracts, to see that the children
attend a school and to see that no family
Is without the Word of God. The society
has now appointed special missionaries to
visit soldiers, sailors, bakers, actors,
coachmen, grooms, cabmen, omnibus
men and canal boatmen, and to look
after the spiritual needs of the Germans,
French, Italians, Swedes, Spaniards,
Jews and Orientals, and, indeed, all for
eigners resident in London. Twenty
five missionaries have exclusively been
commissioned to visit coffee shops and
public houses. From the Of
the work OF the society for the year it
appears thai more than 5000, 900 calls
have been made, 1850, 900 tracts dis
tributed and 1876 drunkards reclaimed.
