The parties who have purchased the
gypsum deposit down the Santa Ana

men at work developing the deposit,

to be the purest gypsumin the state, and

A bridge will be put in across the Santa

A. B. Palmer and "Frenchy" have
Just returned from a successful pros

and wide rolling valleys. and amphi-
theater of mountains, with summers
sunny land and winters icy mountains
within few hours drive. The climate
is truly 30 varied that each mountain.
plain and valley, and each village and
house seems to have climate of its own.
1t is only left to each individual person
to select for himself that locality which
is best adapted to his own peculiar con-
stitution.
The atmosphere is charged with posi-
tive electricity, negative electricity is
very feeble or nil, consequently thunder
storms rarely occur. The atmosphere
contains very little of that deleterious
gas tozone, and where the atmosphere
is free from autozone no cloud or fog
can form, and the oxygen OF the air is
in a state of purity, hence the health
fulness of the climate. Every one
knows that in localities where clouds
and fogs predominant, such localities
are miasmatic and engender diseases of
all kinds.
The atmosphere is very aseptic, proof
OF which may be seen in the meat
market, when even during the hottest
summer DAYS the fresh meats are con-
tinually exposed to the air, hanging
around in the shops day after day until
it becomes cured, or as they term it
here, "jerked." The meat is not put
in ice boxes or refrigerators to keep it
sweet and fresh and free is kept from
putrefaction by hanging in the open air.
The soil is principally dry, sandy
soil, very porous and we'll drained by
a gradual slope OF the land toward
the sea. There are no stagnant pools of
water for the development OF malaria
and other miasmatic diseases. For a
place of residence for the health, pleas
ure and comforts of life, Southern Cali
fornia is truly paradise. There ia
every advantage for the pleasures of
outdoor life. There are more than three
hundred sunshine days in the year to be
out doors. There is every facility for
exercise, such as riding and driving
over the beautiful valleys, walking and
climbing mountaing, hunting and fish
ing, rowing and sea bathing, which can
be INDUCED in every month in the year,
yachting and the pleasures OF short sea
voyages along the coast and to the coast
islands.
Along the foothills within few miles
OF Los Angeles is one OF the most glori-
ous places for an invalid. Here every
thing favors health. The consumptive
lives in ease, and if he comes herein due
time he is almost sure to regain his
health and be free from further progress
of the disease, and only few miles
from the sea or city. he can conjoin
country or mountain life with city or
sea life.
For the invalid home in the country
is preferable to the city. Although Los
Angeles is so situated, that with all it's
modern improvements now under way
as regards paved streets, drainage, sew
erage, suburban hotels, street railway
systems, seaside resorts and drives, it is
destined to become the largest and most
desirable health resort in the world.

Vim. Bell. a colored cart driver. who works
for Mr.. Cudmore. knew he hal done wrong
this morning. and when arraigned before
Judge Harper on two charges he plead
guilty to OF them. The charge to which
he plead guilty was vagrancy, and plea of
not guilty WAS entered in case of concealed
weapons. The weapon charged was a small
knife, and Bell said he used it to mend his
harness.
Thcs. F. Lula had charge of carts on The
works near Maryland avenue and Sth street
northeast. and this morning when Bell reached
the works he behind time and Mr. Lula
spoke TO him about it. Words followed, and
Bell threatened 70 cut Lula's heart out and
throw him in the ditch
This was denied by Bel, who admitted that
he threatened 70 throw Lula in the sewer
Policeman Hendricks. who arrested Bell pro-
iuced the knit, but he knew nothing of the
charge OF vagrancy. He said he had heard
that Bell had been arrested either for shooting
a man or for stealing.
Bell denied that he had ever been arrested
for either offense but he said another man had
been arrested for shooting him.
AS he plead guilty to charge of vagraucy
the judge required him to give go bonds or
go down for thirty days. and imposed {. fine of
80 or thirty days additional in the case of con-
cealed weapons.

personal Journalism" Causes Shooting.


Chester, 8. c., is in a state of great excite
ment over a duel which took place on one Of
the principal streets Monday night between E.
b. Sigh, prominent lawyer, and Robert Jag
gers, editor Of Public Opinion. Sigh met Jag
gers in front of the Pubic Opinion Office, and,
drawing pistol, covered him and administered
cowhiding. Jaggers retreated into his Office
and returned in moment with pistol and
opened FIRE on Sligh who returned the fire.
Chief OF Police Marshall rushed up to separate
the CONTESTANTS, and, thinking Jaggers was fir
ing on him, opened fire, too. For two or three
minutes the street was full Of bullets Sigh
was shot In the face and neck and ID in q most
dangerous condition. Jaggers was unhurt al
though both Sigh and the chief Of police
emptied their pistols at him. The trouble
grew out Of an attack upon Sigh in Jaggers'
paper. JagKers has the reputation Of being
somewhat Of the George Francis Train type.
Sigh is o fighter, and has been engaged a.
principal in several duels.

adjourned.

little about the condition OF Mr.. Blalne's health

believe Blaine lis seriously considering the ques-
ton. OF course the comments which are made
by his friends and the enthusiasm which his
name arouses are very t1atterIng to him bot
think he will not interfere with Mr. Harrison
Mr.. Harrison will get the support of tue
Southern republicans iii the national conven-
ton because the federal Office holders them
selves will be the delegates, and will think it
best to continue their chief ill the White House.
OF course. when election day comes the south
will not count very heavily for any man OH the
