Mountains.
The retail trade of Los Angeles is by
no means insignificant. The stores are,
in the majority of instances, me then
the ordinary size for retail tablish-
ments, elegantly fitted and carrying q
stock which will compare favorably with
Chicago, New York or Philadelphia.
EDUCATIONAL.
One of the marked instances OF the pros
perity of the city is apparent in the growth
of its educational institutions, not III
Numbers alone, but also in efficiency of
management and instruction, and rank
among other schools throughout the
whole country.
Parents who come to this country for
the enjoyment of the natural luxuries
with which it is endowed, need feel no
anxiety for the mental culture of their
children. In fact, Los Angeles may we'll
be proud of the advantages that may
here be obtained. From the kindergar-
ten to the college, the city has facilities
unsurpassed even by the oldesr educa-
tional institutions in the Eastern States.

First National Bank.

No better evidence can be given of the
immense business of Los Angeles and
the financial condition of the people
than an exhibit of the condition of the
banks of the city. This bank was pro-
iected by the present president, Hon. E.
f. Spence, in 1875.
From the start the success of the bank
has been great. 1t is now in the four
teenth year of its existence, and is ably
managed by ex-Mayor Spence, Presi-
dent; ]. D. Bicknell, Vice-President; J.
M. Elliott, Cashier; G.. B. Shaffer, AS
sistant Cashier, assisted by Hon. ]. F.
Crank, VIM. Lacy and II. Maybury as
directors. The bank has capital
of 100000, and undivided profit and
surplus, while the deposits amount to
81, ,064, 4,274.14, which is q handsome
showing for the conservative manage
ment OF the institution, and for the inn
plicit confidence which is held by the

AbStr0ct and Title insurance Co'
Nv. Cor. franklin and New High Streets.
The above company is incorporated
under the laws of the State with paid
up capital of 100000 and q surplus ex-
exceeding $35 600. The abstract books
OF this company are very complete, and
embrace all the records of this city and
county back to the old Spanish grants of
1886. By purchase they succeeded to
the books and plants of the old abstract
firms of Gillett & Gibson and Unger &
Kelly, the books of the former were con-
sidered as complete, up to the time of
turning them over to this company, as
any then in existence. Since that time
an immense amount of time and labor
has been spent in bringing
them to their present complete
condition. 1t is safe to say that
not less than 100000 would be required
to duplicate them. The company own
their site and building, g handsome
four-story block costing $4,000. 1t
could not be bought for that amount
to-day. During busy times as high as
eighty clerks have been kept busy.
Something like forty are now employed.
The manager, Mr.. F. A. Gibson, was
County Recorder for three years, from
1885 to 1889. During his term of office,
about three-ffths of the present records
in that Office were written up. Mr.. Glib
son has probably had larger experience
in this business than any other man now
SO engaged. The officers and directors

The ssQueen,o
60 and 62 South Main street.


The 10th day of March, twelve years
ago, Mr.. Joseph Mesmer started the
Queen Shoe Store" The proprietor,
by liberal and judicious advertising and
courteous business management, has
made the name and fame of '"The Popu-
lar Queen" the household word in every
family in Southern California. The first
introduction of the one-price system in
this city originated in this store, and
that, too, in the face of many predictions
OF failure at that time by leading busi-
ness men. The introduction was accom-
panied with some difficulties, but as the
people became educated up to the idea
that that Zone price" was the lowest"
those difficulties proportionatelyl lessened,
SO that finally it proved to
be one of the main sources of sue
cess. The stock of boots and shoes
carried by the Queen, comprises selec-
tiops from the very best and most re-
putable manufacturers in the United
States, such as Johnston & Murphy, Jas.
A. Banister & Son, Laird, Shober &
Mitchell, J. and 7. Cousins, ]. @. Ben
q ett & Bernard, and many others too
to mention; and in such va
rieties of styles, sizes and widths as to
suit the mest fastidious. No one should
say that they can't find what they want
until he or she has paid visit to this
popular and famous establishment. All
kinds Of foot wear are also made to
MEASURE. The trade of this store extends
over the entire southern portion of the
state and adjoining Territories.

BANKS AND BANKING.

The rapid and unprecedented prosper
ity of Los Angeles's commercial and
manufacturing interests afford unusually
favorable opportunities for the conduct Of
banking operations. The managers of
these financial institutions are gentlemen
of integrity, ability and energy, VINO
enjoy great influence and unlimited
confidence in monetary circles.
The banks OF Los Angeles have been
indispensable factors in promoting the
untold prosperity of this city, and to
them is due in great degree the credit
of her high financial standing. The
combined capital of the banks of Los
Angeles aggregates $1,000, 600, with
surplus and undivided profits of over
81 100000.
The solidity of the banks of1Los Ange-
les through the past is but an index of
the conservative management which has
governed their affairs, and from this fact,
as much as from any other source, can
be attributed the continued growth and
prosperity of our city.
From time to time new institutions
have sprung up to meet the growing de-
