A Graceful RECOGNITION,

Saturdays San Francisco Chronicle
contains very fair article devoted to
Los Angeles county. 1t takes up six
columns, and is profusely illustrated. 1t
describes this city and county after the
subsistence of the boom, and goes into
minute details. It is a creditable Jour-
nalistic effort, and will do much to re-
move the laughably false impression
which prevails abroad as to the condi-
tion of things here. No community ever
showed more vitality than this under
conditions of artificial duress. Begin
ming with the New York Herald, and
ramifyipg all through the East, this
community was described as moribund,
and that in face of the fact that there has
not been one considerable business fall
ure since the paper town craze has died
away. The truth is that in the city of
Los Angeles there has been no backward
movement in real estate, and prices are
as high, and in many cases higher, than
in the country boom. We know OF
one instance in which the purchaser of
an improved piece of property on Main
street, which he bought for $11 900 two
months ago, last Saturday received an
offer OF SIT 200 for it. There has been
no retrocession on good business or resi-
dence property, and Los Angeles is
really filling up with palaces and with
business blocks that rival anything to be
seen in the Eastern cities. Production
in every line is increasing hereabouts at
q marvellous rate.
In its retrospect the Chronicle says;
The boom came because of the infor-
nation suddenly spread through the
country that here was land of wonder
full productiveness, with paradisiac sun
and air and filled with natural resources
waiting but for the aid of capital. The
old resident here knows that this |
boom, which appeared to spring
out Of nothing and end in moth
ing, really began back in the

SULLIVAN LHONIZED.
Gtddy Crowds Applaud Him as a
COnquerlmg Hero.

NOhqueFEnS herOs
New ORLEANS, August 4.-The Pea
yune's Jackson, Mississippi, special
gives an account of the Mississippi Of
ticer's trip with Sullivan. Deputy Sheriff
Childs says: cat every town and station
on the line of the road north OF the Ohio
river, crowds gathered, and they cheered
loudly as the train passed, even though
they could not see the redoubtable John.
Ladies sent bouquets Of flowers to him,
and he was received everywhere as q
conquering hero instead of the prisoner
he was. South of the Ohio the demon
strations were similar to those mentioned
above. AT Durant, Mississippi, Sullivan
received an ovation, and hundreds
crowded around the train and begged to
shake hands with him. Several ladies
entered the cars and were introduced to
the hero of the hour. When Jackson
was reached great crowd assembled at
the depot. Sullivan was met by Bud
Renaud, John Duffy, 9. w. Rich, Col.
Jones, s. Hamilton and several local
to the hotel where dinner had been pre-
pared for them. The crowd followed and
shouted for Sullivan until he was into
the rotunda, where he was introduced by
Col. Hamilton, and shook hands with
hundreds, but finally had to retire to his
room, and the crowd was shut off. This
demonstration SO angered the Governor
that he ordered Sullivan locked up in the
city Jail, saying he did not intend to al
low prisoner charged with serious
crime to be holding levees and making a
farce of justice.

nine men to strike out and allowed seven
scattered hits off his delivery. At critical
points in the game he WAS most effective.
and to the fact that the San Franciscans
