DIVORCE NEWS.
Fred j. Gilmore Separates From
His Wife.

Fred j. Gilmore Separates From
His Wife.
A divorce has been granted in the case
of Fred j. Gilmore, the former chair
man of the Republican County Central
Committee, against his wife, Lenore
Gilmore. The complaint in this case
alleges that they we're married on June
80, 1880, and that for over year prior to
the commencement of the suit, Mrs.
Gilmore refused to live with him as his
wife, although she was in her usual
health and could not make this ground
for her refusal. A demurrer to the COM
plant was fled in the case, but it was
overruled, and after that the defendant
did not make her appearance in the case,
and the divorce was granted on the
grounds prayed for.
Josephine Abel some time since COM
menced suit for divorce Against her hus-
band, Ferdinand Abel, on the ground
that he had failed to provide her with
the necessaries of life. A demurrer was
iuterposed in this case also, but it was
overruled and the divorce was granted.
Judge Van Dyke recently heard the
testimony in the case Hannah l. Leavitt
against Charles F. Leavitt, in which Mrs.
Leavitt charged her husband with failure
to provide and with habitual intemper.
ance. The divorce was granted on these
grounds yesterday.

The Work of Preparation Going en-
Apace.
The finishing touches are being put on
the building at the Soldiers home at all
points and in few weeks it's spacious
halls will be thrown open to the old, scar
scored veterans for whose use it is erect
ed. All four OF the buildings around the
quadrangle are nearly completed, even
to the painting. The great refectory will
not be begun at once, nor probably for
long time to come. There are &C.
commodations in temporary build
ing for large number of guests which
which will be avsiled of until the
big central dining hall is erected which
will require special appropriation by
Congress. The work of developing
water in the canyon has been most sue
cessful under the skillful engineering of
Colonel Brown. This water is piped to
the buildings for domestic uses. and
and there is plenty of it on the grounds
for large number of guests. The
grounds will be beautifed with shrubs
and flowers, and the home will soon be a
model place for the entertainment of the
old soldiers. There are great many of
them in this section who are anxiously
expecting the opening OF the home.

HE RETURNS A WRECK.
A Young Physician Comes Back
tn KepeAt.

A Young Physician Comes BACK
to Repent.
Many people who lived here six or
eight years ago will remember young
man, J. H. Roneborne, who studied
medicine in the Office of DR.. Fellows in
Odd Fellow s. building, over where the
Postoffice was at that time. Roneborne
was young, suave, handsome and debon.
naire, and of course with all these at
tractive features he was popular. In an
evil hour the young gentleman left the
City of the Angels and the glorious eli
mate of the Semi-tropics, and hied him
away to the fogs of the Bay City. All
went "el! until one day. or more likely
one night, when the wind drove in over
sand dunes like cyclone and the fog
was driven before it in great clouds Of
cold moisture. 1t struck Roneborne
as mountain wave strikes vessel amid
ships, and laid him out. For weeks he
lay trembling in the balance, in one
scale of which is life. in the other death.
A vigorous constitution and pro-
fessional disinclination to trust to drugs
for relief, brought him safely through at
last; and during the first days of con-
valescence, when one can do nothing but
sit with hands crossed idly and think,
his mind naturally wandered back to Los
Angeles, and her sunny skies and balmy
airs. So here he is at the Montrose, q
wreck of himself, but on the road to
recovery. He will soon be we'll again,
and no doubt he will be ready to tell
others how to get we'll. He will be as
handsome and fascinating as of yore,
when once the dark circles leave the
region around his eyes and the roseate
tint returns to his cheek.

THE GRAIN CROPS.
An Immense Acreage Seeded WIN
Great Promise Of she Harvest.

An ummense Acreage Seeded with
Great Promise Of she Harvest.
The rain which ceased in the city on
Sunday continued during the greater
part of Monday in the interior valleys.
While the precipitation was less than
an inch along the Coast, and as far in
land as Los Angeles, it much surpassed
that measure near the foothills and in.
land generally. From San Gabriel east
ward much more than an inch fell. On
Monday there was leaking downpour
lasting several hours at Anaheim and
Santa Ana.
Since the rain all the plows are out
again. and still grain is being sown all
through the valley. With the moisture
in the ground, grain which is well up, is
sure to head and produce q
grand yield; with few showers
in March, grain sown now will
do excellently. Yesterday, all over an
area of sixty by seventy-five miles, every
procurable team was in harness and
turning the sod. The farmer who had
but two horses was seeding his couple OF
acres, and on the big ranches there were
in many cases score of ten-horse teams
at work, seeding hundred acres be-
tween sunrise and sunset.
There will be larger sowings OF wheat
and barley in the county this year than
ever before. Portions of the Palos Ver-
des ranch, never plowed before, have
been put in grain this year. On the
San Pedro ranch the same is true. Well
informed residents of the district esti-
mate that between the Los Angeles river
on the east, the Cahuenga Mountains on
the west, the city on the north and the
ocean beach, that is, on the San Pedro
Los Palos Verdes, Sensol, Redondo, Cen
tinella, Cienega, La Ballona and other
ranches along the belt outlined there is
not less than 100000 acres in grain.
The Lankershim Land and Water Com
psny have 1000 acres in grain, every
available acre of their lands being leased
out on shares. On these lands there are
newly planted 1900 acres of deciduous
fruit orchards. The fruits mostly being
set out are apples, peaches, pears,
prunes, plums, apricots, ounces, figs,
olives and English walnuts. The plant
ing of walnuts is very liberal, as the crop
is exceedingly profitable.
Ex-Sheriff A. T. Currier, of Spadra,
reports large area of grain in his por-
ton of the valley, and he states that the
young plant is vigorous and promising.
In his opinion good crop is assured
even without another shower of rain
although, of course, further rains are
almost sure to come, and will be of great
benefit.

THE CHAUTAUQUA.
The Great Pavilion at RedOndO
Beach Begun.

Beach Begun.
Rev. J. T. Fleming is very happy
man these days. He sits surrounded
with plans, profles, and elevations of
the big building the Chautauqua Society
is about to erect for pavilion at Re-
dondo Beach. An immense pile of ma
terial is already on the ground, and ac-
tive preparations are under way to begin
the construction of the edifce at once.
The building will be a very unique one.
It is to be constructed for the most part
of sort of rubble. The coarse gravel
and small stones of the back are to be
utilized cemented together in blocks Of
of different sizes. 1t is claimed to be a
comparatively cheap method of building,
while at the same time the building, it
is thought, will be durable as we'll as
safe. In the late months of summer, no
doubt this great intellectual society will
be in full swing with debates, papers and
studies in all sorts of psychological and
social topics.

THE GOVERNMENT BUILDING.

Sent On.
The Government building to be erected
in this city will probably soon be under
way. The Messrs. Collins and Hargitt,
of this city, were the lowest bidders on
the job, and it was awarded to them.
Last Saturday the contracts and bonds
to be signed arrived in Los Angeles by
mail, and on Monday these were duly
signed and sent back to Washington for
approval. As the papers we're all pro
forma it is not to be supposed that there
will be any hitch in the proceedings,
and if this prognostication prove correct
then it will not be many days before
work on the building will be going for
ward. As the contractors are rustiers it
may be expected that when they are told
they are all right they will 60 ahead
with will. This building will keep q
good many men employed during the
summer months, when business in this
line is usually rather dull.

WHERE Is OUR HorELs
Shall sam Diego Knock Los Angeles
City our?


Mr.. Finnerty, a very successful bust
ness man of Denver, has been visiting
the semi-tropics for some four weeks
He has spent most Of the time at Coron-
ado Hotel, but within few days past
has ventured to run up to Los Angeles,
where he now is. And quite venture it
must be, for all the people regret to leave
the stately and splendid Coronado to
come to this city. The report is that
when anyone names Los Angeles as a
place where a visitor might spend a
week, cry OF incredulity is raised. A
man is considered more or less insane
who would contemplate such move.
The guests at the Coronado are inocu-
lated with the idea that there are no
hotels worthy of the name in the Angelic
City.
Mr.. Finnerty reports as many as 800
guests at the Coronado, and the impress
sion is that the bar pays the expenses of
the house. A little knot of Angelef1o
capitalists who were present when these
things we're being discussed stood aghast
at the recital of the reputation their city
is cursed with outside Of her gates, at the
round number of guests who are found
at the Coronado and at the profits of the
hostelry. Mr.. Finnerty quite agreed
with the sentiment that Los Angeles
ought to have q great caravansary equal
to any on the continent. 1t was the general
impression that five hundred wealthy
Angelenos ought to at once take eacn
one 81 600 bond to build the hotel. At a
fair rate of interest these bonds could be
sold and bid on, if need were, and the
hotel thus be put up. But that ought
not to be necessary, these gentlemen
thought. The citizens could well afford
to put in the money and look for no
direct return from the investment. The
benefit to the town would ten times
double pay back it all to each individ-
ual investor.
