The Speeches.

When the first section of the Los An
geles Gable Road was opened a week
ago, the remembrance that Mr.. J. F.
Crank YVES the founder OF the system
was vividly recalled, for, at a personal
expense of 100000 he, two years ago, SET
going the scheme that has resulted in one
of the most valuable of the city's i'm
provementB. A number of the
citizens therefore decided to ten
der to him a personal reception
aud banquet in recognition of his SER
vices, and, as a result, committee, of
| which Mr.. Jno. f. Humphreys WAS the
chairman and Messrs. w. HI. Workman,
W. II. Perry and l. n. Van Nuys, the
members, was formed. The outcome
was the following communication to Mr..
Crank:
Los ANG ELEs, June 10, 1889.

THE BANQUET.
In the cosy rooms of the California
Club there therefore assembled, last
night, one OF the most representative
gatherings of the city's social and busi-
ness life that has ever been brought to-
gether. Nearly every cover was repre-
sented, only those being absent who
could not possibly be on hand. The ban
quet, it is needless to say, was good
one, the menu being as follows:
saumon a la Uhambord.
ENTREE.
Filet de Volatile a la Toulouse.
RoTI.
Filet de beuf pique, inancieEe.
Punch la Romaine.

THE SPEECHES.
After the many good dishes were dis
cussed, toasts were, of course, in order,
and, as an Introductory, surprise was
in store. 1t came in the form of hand
some silver tea service, which was ten
dered to Mr.. Crank in a most fe.icitous
speech by United States Dis
trict Attorney George Denis, and
in response, the guest of the evening
made very happy address. Referring
to the immediate occasion which had in
duced the festivities, he dwelt upon the
prosperity of the city, the deep interest
he had taken in its welfare and the glori-
GUS future that was ahead. The speakers
remarks were applauded to the echo as
he took his seat, having acquitted HIM
self as admirably as the occasion de-
manded.
Then came the usual run of speeches,
and addresses were made by the Hon. S.
NJ. White, Hon. E. F. Spence, Judge
Bicknell, Col. Otis, Mr.. H. q. Osborne,
Mr.. S. p. Jewett, Mr.. G. A. Dobinson
and others. 1t was long past midnight
ere the festivities came to close, and it
is safe to say that the occasion will be
always pleasantly remembered by those
who had the good fortune to participate
in it.
