HOUSE AND LOT BUSINESS,
A Handsome New Dwelling on
FiguerOa Street.
A Dull Week in Real Estate Mat
ters.
Many Now and Costly Buildings Arc
stin Bsing Erected in All Sec-
tions or Town and
County.

So far az real estate il concerned the
past week has seen a continuation Of the
dullness noted the week preceding. 1t
is to be expected, however, at this sea-
son OF the year, and but little real stir
is to be looked for beiore the first OF
September. At that time we'll informed
real estate men look for marked re-
vivsl in all lines of property. 1t sesms
to be generally accepted theory that
beginning with fall will see large emi-
grafton to Southern California and a
consequent demand for property OF all
descriptions.
THE NEW HOTEL.
The fact that the new tourist hotel
proposition has begun to assume tangi-
BILE shape is calling some attention to
Main street out about Tenth and around
the vicinity of where the new hotel is
proposed to be built. A very hopeful
aspect is now given to the hotel, and
those who have the matter in hand say
that there is a good prospect OF having
the house erected. 1t 10 generally con.
coded that such hotel will prove a
drawing card for Los Angeles.
STREET CAR EXTENSION.
Beginning on Friday, the electric
railway commenced running its Uni
versity and Pico Heights cars south on
Spring street from Fourth street on its
new extension. They now run to the
intersection OF Main at Ninth and turn
west at Tenth, where they take the
same route as formerly. This gives
Spring street an electric system its en-
tire length, and is much appreciated by
those who do business below Fourth.
$500, 600 IMPROVEMENT.
The new addition to the Chino beet
sugar factory is about completed. The
machinery was put in operation on
Wednesday and was found to work very
smoothly. 1t will increase the capacity
of the factory from 800 to 1000 tons a
day, and has been built at cost OF over
100000.
| A VERY NEAT COTTAGE.
One of the nsatest semi-colonial cot
tages built in Los Angeles this year is
that built by A. Fl. Potter ON Twenty
third street near Toberman, Just COM
pleted. r. B. Young, the we'll known
architect, drew the plans from an en-
tirely original idea, and the result has
been entirely satisfactory. Stewart d
Grant were the contractors. The cot
tage has ak rooms, bath and closet
with large attic above. A large hal
runs through the house and gives accesi
| to every ronr- entirely independent o
the others. A circular porch runs alonl
the front and around to the side of tn,
house from which two entrances ar,
permitted to the house. On one side o
the main entrance is the parlor and Oh
the other side is sitting room while ii
J the rear of this is the dining room an(
still in the rear the kitchen. The bee
rooms, all provided with closets, are or
the other side of the hall. Without
doubt it ia the best arranged cottage
and makes the most finished effect o
any built in Los Angeles this season
The architect had free rein in thii
dwelling, and showed what could bt
done when not hampered by restrc
tions. The same architect is just now
building the Mason block. the johnson
block on Fourth, the Wilson block or
Broadway, and some 10 or 10 dwellings
