Coastwise Bna.neaa.

The maritime business of Southern
California consists Of coastwise exports
and imnnrts hv steam and sailing shin.
at Santa Barbara, San Buenaventura,
Hueneme, Redondo, San Pedro, New
port and San Diego. to which will soon
be added Santa Monica and Long Beach,
also foreign exports and imports, by
steam and sailing ship, at San Pedro,
Redondo and San Diego. The largest
maritime business is done at present at
San Pedro, followed by San Diego and
Redondo.
Last year the customs district and
port OF Wilmington (San Pedro) was
changed by act of congress to Los An
gele5, and this city was constituted an
immediate transportation port. This
enables Los Angeles merchants to i'm
port merchandise in bond direct to the
city. The collections from customs at
San Pedro in 1892 amounted to $70,0 900.
The total value OF foreign imports at San
Pedro for the year was nearly $340.OO0,
including $4,000 tons of coal, IL coo
casks of cement and over 4l6,000 feet OF
lumber. The domestic imports included
66, 900, 900 feet of lumber and IA ,000 tons
of general merchandise. The domestic
exports by this route coneist chiefly OF
grain, of which 800 tons was shipped in
1892. Over 800 foreign and domestic
vessels arrived at San Pedro during the
year.

The speech made by Theodore Run

was:
1--WE are in a foreign land, yet one
not entirely strange to us. We know
the people and their language. They
assisted to a great degree in creating
the prosperity Of the country of which
we are SO proud. We are not exiles here.
We have come to drink at Germany's
fountains of learning, to be taught at
her schools of science and art. From
the German people, from their gallant
young emperor down, we have received
generous and hospitable welcome.
Thesmperor, both in word and act, has
shown kindness of feeling toward cur
country. He has given also striking
and memorable evidence of his disposi
ton in using his personal influence for
the creation of the magnificent exhibits

the latter point an electric road will ex-

The total railway mileage in Southern
California is about $4,000 miles, most of
which has been constructed within 10

The people OF San Diego are very de-

between Indio and Yuma, is as stated,

Much interest is taken in the pro-
posed construction of third trans

by way of the rich mineral fields of
Southern Nevada and Utah, to Salt

DEATH OF ELISHABA.

Professor Garner Inconsolable Over the De-
mise cftlle Most Intelligent CFimpanzee.
Professor Garner, who is to sail for
America in few days, is quite dis
consulate over the death of Elishaba,
the most intelligent chimpanzee ever
found. Gamer made the acquaintance
of Elishaba and her husband, Aaron, IN
Africa and induced them to come north
with him. The death of the poor crea-
ture in Liverpool on Thursday was
quite pathetic. She died in the arms
of poor Aaron, who had been assiduous
in his attentions during her whole i'll
ness.
Professor Garner was present during
her last moments, and when he put
his hand to her heart to see if it had
ceased to beat Aaron put his hand there,
too, looking in the professors eyes and
inquiring if that was all he conld do.
Aaron would not permit his dead COM
panion to be taken from him. The sad
ness in Aaron's countenance could not
have been more clearlS portrayed on the
face of human being. His grief was
inconsolable. When the professor Wis
tied his protege yesterday, Aaron was
not content until he had put his hand
in that Of the professor and by signs
and sounds was telling him his distress.

Today it almost appears as If all the

States. running east and west, we're
heading for Southern California. The
reason for this is not far to seek.
Southern California offers peculiar at
fractions to the builders of transconti-
mental lines. In the 1900 miles OF the
Pacific coast there are but thrae great
outlets to the sea-one at the Columbia
river, another at the Golden Gate, and
the third and best, by the low noun
tain passes of Los Angeles, San Bernar-
dino and San Diego counties. No other
transcontinental road will attempt to
overcome the difficulties and obstacles
which we're conquered by the Central
Pacific under in petus OF immense SUBJ
sides granted during war timeS. The
Central Pacific has to climb 7071 feet, as
compared with 1919 for the Atchison,
Topeks and Santa Fe at the Cajon 1892
for the Atlint.c aud Pacific at Soledad,
and 1850 for the Southern Pacific at San

from San Pedro to Galveston is 800

THE TOWNSHIP OF Ell ToRo,

And Adjacent Farming Lands In Los
Elisos Valley.
This beautiful and most fertile spot is
one OF the newest but also one of the
most prosperous colonies in Orange
county. Its beauty and it's extremely
favored location have drawn the atten-
ton OF many hundreds o. health and
home seekers. Nine. Modjsska, the
celebrated actress, selected this spot for
home.
The climate is the finest in Orange
county. Like the Cahuenga valley, Los
Elisos ie entirely without frost, and the
townsite of FL Toro and surrounding
country are additionally sheltered from
all north winds by the Santiago
range of mountains. Its proximity
to the Pacific ocean, being only
seven miles distant, the summers
are cooled and the winter months tenn
pered bysthe sea. Ell Toro has an eleva-
tion of 500 feet above sea level, is 40
miles distant from Los Angeles, and
only nine miles from Santa Ana, the
county seat of Orange county. The
thrifty settlers of Ell Toro are all owners
Of large orchards, consisting of decidu-
GUS and citrus fruits, the deciduoua trees
thriving without irrigation. This season
20 900 deciduous and 1000 citrus trees
are being newly planted.
The irrigation problem in this valley
has also been most advantageoualy
solved, and water is being pumped
direct into the irrigation bitches by
means of gasoline engines, pumping
water from shallow wells at an exceed.
ingy nominal outlay, doing entirely
away with the usual expensive methods
OF irrigation districts. Here every man
is his own irrigator.
The little town of Ell Toro, nearby has
well.to-do settlers, and their buildings
and homes are of q superior grade.
There are two general merchandise
stores, postoffice. public school houee,
warehouses. blacksmith shops, etc. The
California Southern Railway company
have fne station at Ell Toro.
The soil is rich alluvial losm, entire
ly free from adobe. The large orchard
formerly planted by ldr. d. Whiting
and now owned by Mr.. E. P. Hoyle,
| yielded many tons of fruit last season,
and is called the model orchard OF
Orange county. Among many other ex-
tensive orchards and vineyards, the fol-
lowing are the owners of some OF the
largest: Chas. salter, The Land Com
pany, Arthur Scott. L. X. Scott, L. p.
Hoyle, Captain Huddy, A. G. Twist, S.
II. Cape and many others, who can tes-
tify to the fruitfulness of the district.
| The land can be had in tracts of any
eize, from five acres up, at the nominal
figure of $25 per acre. Any further
information pertaining TO Ell Toro and
surroundings can be had from Mr.. d.
