The fashion just now is to cry that
there is NO business doing. 1t is great
mistake. There are in this city at the
present time large number of shrewd
people who are quietly making very
heavy purchases Of real estate. These
buyers are mostly from the East, and
they are all brand-new corners. Two or
three days ago one of these spotted a
sign on lot on Second street, on the
steep grade between Olive street and
Grand avenue. He enquired the price,
and, learning that it was to
be had fo7 800 a front foot,
planked down the cash and picked up
the snap in an instant That was a small
deal; but there are larger purchases be-
ing made every day. Two or three
heavy capitalists from the East. during
the current week, have made large in
vestments on Main street. One of the
snaps picked up by these people is in the
block where the Westminster Hotel
stands. This one party put in $4,000
during the week. These purchases are
being made on the quiet, but there are a
good many of them being consummated.

Mr.. Hazard at home about 9 O'Clock and

YESTERDAY was certainly typical
California day. Cloudless sky, roads as
dry as punk and hard as adamant, a
temperature ranging between SO and 70
degrees, and hardly simmer of wind
astir--such were the characteristics of the
day. As it was a legal holiday and all
business was laid aside, the people hied
them to the seaside, or out into the
country. The watering places had the
mir of June day about them, as a
plunge in the surf was the order with old
and young; for it does not demand that
. man have the robust strength of an
athlete, the health of demigod, or
the hardness Of an Eequimo to
take dip in the briny at
our seaside resorts in February. In
valids, women and little children may
bafhe in the sea in this region at this
season not merely with impunity, but
with pleasure. Were we to look ON this
picture, and then turn to the East and
look on that, we would by the contrast
Be able the better to realize how abso-
lutely perfect our climate is. At this
time Of year harsh winds, soft SHOWS,
slush and general discomfort is the rule
With yeryf " exceptions by way Of proof.

the basis for his action being an affidavit
charging Colonel Dudley with being
