HE WILL BUILD.
After Two Years Delay the Freeman
Block Goes Up,

oAO~A 0OCS OPs
A new era of prosperity is setting in
all along the line in Los Angeles. Signs
of this crop out at all points. Here is
one of the latest pointers. More than
two years ago d. Freeman, Esq, began
the erection of a fine block on full lot
60x165 feet at the corner of Sixth and
Spring streets. The stores on the ground
floor were all rented to good tenants.
The cellar too was excavated. The
massive foundations were all laid in
brick and mortar. But the era of dull
ness came ON like thief in the night,
or like thunder out of clear sky. The
tenants became frightened and told
Mr.. Freeman they would not feel justi-
fed in opening up business in Los An
geles under the changed aspect of the
sky. Hewas constrained to rescind the
leases, put stop to the construction of
the block, and bring matters to a dead
standstill. There the hole in the ground
lay month after month, and no man ever
said to him: ''Is your lot worth dol
| lar?''
Now mark the change that has taken
place here of late. About month or
six weeks ago a person came to Mr..
Freeman and asked him how much he
would take for the lot A price was put
on it, which the buyer considered too
high. and the matter was let rest, but
not for long. Not week has passed
since that failed to bring some one to the
front with an inquiry as to the value of
the lot. Mr.. Freeman regards it as
worth $1,000 foot, and the buyers think
they can do better elsewhere. Last Sat
urday business man came to Mr.. Free
man and asked him why he did not go
on and build. He answered: ST will
as soon as / can get tenants for the
stores" The inquirer at once laid bare
the proposition that he and two friends
would take the three stores, and now Dan
Freeman is the busiest man in town
getting ready to begin the big block
again. Next Monday a force of men
will be at work, and up she goes.
Here is lesson in clinic form. That
block is a type of the whole city. Moth
ing is dead here. Things have been TAX
ing little nap, that is all. They are
about to awake, and when the new era
does get its eyes open it will 60 to work
with will. A giant refreshed will be
nowhere beside the rush things will
take on. A Titan in his energy is the
only parallel to the vim the new Los An
geles will put into her development.
To vary tue figure, the tide has
been at slack notes for the past little
while, but the tide is tuning, the cur
rents are getting well under way, and
there will be movement from now on.
Heaven pity the fellow who intends to
purchase property in Los Angeles and
puts it off a little longer. He will pay
through his nose for his lack of fore
sight and courage.

National Bank Deposits.

WASHINGTON, March 10.-Acting Sec
retary Nettleton of the treasury depart
ment made the following statement
today, in regard to the report that the
department had decided to call in the
government deposits in the national
banks: The government has no present
or immediate need to use any part of the
funds now IN depository banks. Doubt
less during the next eight months
part of such deposits will be required,
but they will in such case be called in
in installments, and only on reasonable
notice, as heretofore. Inasmuch as
these deposits, when so called in, will
doubtless be disbursed to meet the cur
rent requirements of the government,
the funds so used will be almost imme-
diately returned to the channels of
business.

have arranged with the American
Standard Oil company to divide the
markets Of the world. The Novoe
Vremya then says Russia would not fail,
in the event of financial troubles, to give
a Roland for an Oliver.
Since the London mansion house
meeting, which expressed sympathy
with the Hebrews, and resulted in the
sending of memorial to the Gar, the
severity OF the anti-Jewish penal laws
have been redoubled in rigor. When
the written laws are inadequate, arbi-
trary laws replace them. In view OF
these prosecutions about 100000 of the
poorest classes of Jews have embraced
Russian orthodoxy.

A BUSINESS PROPOSITION.
4 City Lady Who Required Proof B before
Believing.

There recently appeared in the San Francisco
Call, Chronicle, and Examiner, proposition
hitherto unheard Of in similar business rela-
ions. It was nothing more nor less than an
advertisement in which the Edwin W. Joy
Company, in proof OF the curative properties Of
oy'svegetable Sarsaparilla, offered for q limited
period to submit 1t to the terrific test Of "no
cure no pay" Many accepted, and their letters
giving their experience are so convincing as
to be almost beyond belief Here 1s another,
written under Gate January 9, 1s9o:-
DEAR sIRs: accepted your offer to test the
merits Of your vegetable remedy in sick head
aches, and called for bottle and got it. I had
been troubled for long time, and had tried
nearly everything with little or no effect; bat
joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla acted almost like
magic, and the first bottle relieved me from one
OF the worst cases OF sick headache one ever
had. MRS. M. B. PRICE,
16 Prospect Place, San Francisco.

these letters. 1t is doubtful If any remedy was

RAPACIOUS RUSSIA.
The Absorption of Scandinavia Expected.
Persecuted Hebrews.

FerSecuteu hebrews.
ST.. PETERSBURG, March 10.-The ten
sion of affairs caused by the political sit
nation in Scandinavia is keenly watched
and followed here. Russia has long
been waiting for an opportunity to in
corporate into the Russian empire the
country beyond the northwest frontier,
thus gaining free Atlantic seaboard
and enabling Russia to make Ofoten, in
Norway, naval port Of equal strategic
Importance with Vladivostock, near the
northwestern limit of Corea, on the Sea
of Japan, by joining the now separated
railway systems of Russia and Scandi-
navia.
The semi-official Novoe Vremya has
taken up the hint that if the Roths-
childs espouse the cause OF the Hebrews,
it means financial pressure upon the
Russian government, and publishes a
long and yenomous article, stating that
the Rothschilds themselves have given
hostages to the Russian government in
80 much that they now own practically
all the naphtha springs OF Boku, and

THE RAILROADS.
RICHARD GIRD'S NARROW GAUGE
TO BE BUILT TO ANAHEIM.
Its Probable Extension to Anaheim Land
ing-The Reasons Why the Road Will
Be Built-A Batch of News Notes.

1t is now definitely settled that Mr..
Richard Gird will build his narrow
gauge road from Chino to Anaheim.
The people of the latter place have
agreed to Mr.. Gird's terms. which was
that they should take $42, 900 worth of
stock in the road, and pay for it in
labor.
1t is Mr.. Gird's desire to continue the
line from Anaheim to Anaheim Landing,
and make harbor at the latter place.
Mr.. M. M. O'Gorman will visit the
landing tomorrow and make thorough
inspection of its capabilities. Mr..
O'Gorman is a civil engineer, particular
ly well experienced in harboI bnilding.
tits not the intention of Mr.. Gild to build
pier into the ocean, but, if practicable,
to create an inside harbor.
Mr.. Gird has three objects in view in
building this railroad and port. First,
it will always act as an insurance against
the combination of other railways, and
consequent exorbitant rates. Second, it
will give farmers chance to transport
their beets to the sugar factory by road
owned by men directly interested in the
project. Third, by going to the sea, Mr..
Gird will be able to secure the coal
traffic to his refinery. The latter item is
big one. The consumption of coal
this season at the factory will average
fifty tons day, and next season this
will amount to one hundred and fifty
tons

sENAroRIAL FUNERALS.
The Melancholy Occasions Seized Upon
for Junketing Trips.

for Junketing Trips.
WASHINGTON, March 10.-The setting
forth of the Hearst funeral procession
has started flood OF gossip about the
cost of senatorial funerals. A repre-
sentative Of Alabama says the Hearst
funeral cortege, now on its way to Cali
fornia, cost not less than $4,000 Nine
senators and eight representatives
were appointed on the part
of their respective houses as an escort
of honor. The wives of some OF these
gentlemen accompanied them, as we'll
as two employees Of the senate. 1t was
given out the day before the train left,
that Mrs. Hearst had set her foot down
on so large a party going, and that
sooner than have the melancholy OBJ
sequies made mere excuse for jun
ket at the governments expense, she
would pay the cost Of the train herself
and shut out the junketers, but she does
not seem to have been successful.

NOTES.

The Santa Fe officials have decided to
rebuild the Temecula caf1on line as far
as Temecula. AS this point is only
thirty miles from the junction near
Oceanside, it is probable that in time
the whole line will be rebuilt.
General Manager Wade, OF the South
ern California road, spent yesterday in
specting repairs at the Duarte and
Azusa.
The Southern California road is send
ing east an average of forty carloads of
oranges day.
The Southern Pacific has more freight
than it can we'll handle. It is sending
out freight specials as fast as they can
be made up.
General G. M. Dodge, a director and
manager OF construction of the Union
Pacific company, went to Coronado yes
terday in his private car. General
Dodge has built more miles of railroad
than any man in the United States. 1t
is not impossible that the next road h 9
builds will have Los Angeles as ter
minal.

liked her for her simple ways. SO natural
And for the charm of manner she possessed
to a degree.
She had never been east before, she said with
half a smile,
And felt somewhat embarrassed and uneasy
all the while;
And when she talked this way there was a half

spring.
When others sought the clamor of the sum-
mer hotel band
She much preferred the murmur of the waves
upon the sand;
She felt so out of place, she said, when people
were around,
And blushed in such an artless way, her eyes
upon the ground,
That straightway permitted my fancy to take
wing,
And weave a sunlit romance round the girl
met last spring.
We formed little circle, for her brother he
was there;
He had u friend, too. and they seemed very
And on one rainy day when we were kept in
doors, she said
She thought in place of bathing that we might
play cards instead,
I cried out in my eagerness that poker was
the thing,
And laughed to scorn the bushes of the girl

If this perchance should meet the eye of some
kind western friend
Who knows this girl, I'll take it as a favor if
