IN A CASE OF NEED.

How Knowing Ones Find Money Easily
On Pinch.
There are cases of emergency when it
is necessary for most people to find
money at a moments notice. On such
occasions they are often at loss. be-
cause they know of no place where q
sum can be secured in time to prevent a
temporary annoyance, or even catas-
trophe.
Persons who are we'll posted have no
difficulty in overcoming these casual
moments of financial Embarrassment,
but it is astonishing to see how many
in this locality are not aware that
there is an establishment here where
relief under similar circumstance can
readily be had. 1t is the Pacific Loan
company, an incorporated financial
company, whose large and commodious
offices are located at ia South Spring
street. Unlike most of lhe concerns
that do similar business, this is a
bona fide incorporated financial estab-
lishment, composed of responsible peo-
pie. w. E. DeGrott, gentleman well
and favorably known in this community
for his integrity and business capacities,
is its president and manager.
The Pacific Loan company is prepared
at all times to make loans in any
amounts on all kinds of personal prop
erty and collateral security, on pianos
without removal. diamonds, iewelry,
sealakins, bicycles, carriages, Libraries,
or any property of value, as we'll as on
furniture, merchandise or other prop
erty in warehouses. A special feature
of the business is payments on Install
ments, also long terms for the repay
ment of loans.
The company has large burglar and
fire proof safes, and it's offices are under
the care of thoroughly efficient watch
men after business hours. AS a pre-
caution against fire the premises are
also heavily insured, and no danger is
to be apprehended under these heads.
/ All business transacted with the Pacific
Loan company is strictly confidential,
and the utmost secrecy is observed in
all cases under all circumstances. Pri'
vate offices are at the disposal of ladies'
and persons who are desirous that theii
business should remain entirely con.
| fined to themselves, where they can
negotiate their loans at leisure and be
sure of receiving courteous treatment
The Pacific Loan company last winter
conducted the largest and most success
full sale of silverware ever had on this
coast, aggregating something like $40,
900 in value.

REAL ESTATE.
An Interview With Wesley Clark on the
0uflnnk.


An Interview with Wesley Clark on the
Outlook.
"What do l think of the outlook ?"
said Wesley Clark, the well known
Third-street real estate operator, yester-
day, to HERALD reporter. swell, I'll
tell you. Things look brighter now than
they have for some time past. The real
estate market has not been dormant by
any means. A great deal OF business
property has changed hands, and good
prices been obtained. Mr.. 7. D. Slim
son, the Chicago capitalist, gave great
impetus to the market by the many
large purchases be made. As 1 acted as
his agent in many of these purchases, /
know that the prices were entirely sat-
isfactory to both sides. There is ac-
tually more solid building going on now
than at any time during the boom.
There is quite demand for desirable
business property, and people who are
after such property want it for building
purposes. / think that this fall we
will see quite stir in acreage
property, for l receive great many
letters daily from all parts of the
east asking about Los Angeles.
Why, if l were to try and answer all
the letters and queries would not be
able to do it, even with three assistants.
How do you treat such correspondence?
asked the reporter. Well, l simply send
them a copy of the ILLUSTRATED HERALD,
and they have the whole thing in nut
shell.
Mr.. Clark is shrewd and active
real estate dealer and has been the
agent in some of the largest real estate
deals recorded in this city. He also
negotiates loans, rents houses, and is
agent for some of the strongest insur-
ance companies in existence.

Nobody Told Him.

He opened the door of Nassau go-as-

with the air of a man who fears that he
may be intruding. Then, observing that
people helped themselves and paid only for
what they devoured, he wandered along the
counter, selected tongue sandwich, three
doughnuts and cranberry tart, added
mug Of coffee to the assortment and turned
to find seat. A seat, however, in Mas
sau street -you-please is q difficult
thing to obtain any day around l O'Clock,
and without that haven of refuge 1t takes
a skillful hand to steer cup of hot coffee
through a pushing, lostling crowd. The
gentleman was not skillful; moreover, ne
was handicapped by the sandwich, the
doughnuts and the cranberry tart, and
while he Deered about for a seat the coffee
mug slowly distributed its hot contents
along the back breadth Of 8 handsome

So gently did it fall, however, that the
owner of the coat was unconscious OF what
had happened, and when the startled gaze
of the gentleman from out Of the city fell
upon what he had done be was transixed
with horror. With enc glance at the ruined
coat and it's unconscious owner, he hastily
set down his untasted collection of edibles
on the nearest shelf and made for the door.

the average life conditions in a civilized
community are sufficiently conspicuous,
but even in comparison with society not so
far removed from modern civilization the
advantage is greatly with the present.
The gradual frightening of the average du-
ration of human life with advancing civili-
cation has been accompanied by steadily
improving the conditions, and is in fact
natural consequence of them. This impor-
tant drift of events is well illustrated in
United States, so recently the haunt OF
wandering savages in the stone age, and in
modern Europe, which three centuries
back was for the most part in that pastoral
stage of culture which in the march Of
civilization has customarily interviewed be-
tween the.feral and the agricultural. Even
no further back than last century the food
supply, shelter and means Of transit were
little in advance of those of the Levantine
civilization of 5000 years ago George II.
