RUMOR ABOUT THE Los ANGELES
AND PACIFIC.
1t IL Reported That 1t WIN Be Opened
Up Again Heavy Travel to
Arizona by Set-
tiers.

The following from Colegrove, Ca
huenga valley correspondent, adds some
thing additional to the menu about the
Los Angeles and Pacific railroad: There
ara various rumors ahoRt regarding the
rehabilitation OF the old Los Angeles
Cahuenga valley. 1t seems to be fact
that some parties, whose identity ia not
clearly disclosed, but who are supposed
to represent the Consolidated Electric
company, have arranged with the cred
itors and bondholders Of the Les An
geles and Pacific, to take hold OF the
property and make an electric road OF it.
the creditors and bondholders are to re-
ceive stock or bonds in the new COM
pany on the basis OF 20 per cent OF their
claims against the old company, which
is considered by those who understand
the present condition of the old conn
pany TO be iuet exactly 20 cents on the
dollar more than they are apt TO get if
they hold on much longer.
The road in its present state OF in
nocuous desuetude ia absolutely without
value to anyone. II it were to be en-
tirely abandoned the ties and rails
would hardly pay for the taking up and
hauling off; while the grading, which
represents an outlay of many thousands
of dollars, would remain an eyesore
worth less than nothing. Any rights of
way the old company may claim would
of courae terminate.
Now, on the other hand, If the road
beput in operation all these things at
once become very valuable; represent
ing, in the case OF an electric road, at
least one-half the value OF the complete,
thoroughly equipped line. Where rights
of wav are wanting they may be OBJ.
tanned for the asking.
AS to the question whether an cleo
trio road would pay there can be but one
answer. 1t certainly would. A line
with Los Angeles at one end and Santa
Monica at the other, with the Soldiers
home thrown in. has pretty good basis
to start on. But the special advantage
that this route has over any other possi-
BILE route between these two points is
that it passes all the way through what
is acknowledged to be the best section OF
country in Southern California as re-
CARDS climate and productiveneps of soil.
The population is already sufficient
along much of the route to afford fair
local business. but the great business
that an electric road could depend upon
would be created by the road itself. The
lack of cheap rapid transit to and from
Los Angeles ia the only thing that keeps
thousands OF people from making their
homes here. The valley is indeed build
ing up quite rapidly under the present.
adverse conditions as regards transpor-
tstion. but anyone with halt an eye can
see that an electric road would in six
months time throw more population
into this suburban paradise than will
otherwise come in as many years.

DRS. SHORES & SHORES

New system of treatment for Catarrh consists
of mild and soothing remedies. There is no
harsh treatment. no cutting or burning, no
cauterizing, pain. The internal remedies
permanently eradicate the disease from the
system, and the local applications give prompt
relief from the paiu and dullness in the head,
oppressed and stuffy feeling in the nose the
dropping of mucus into the throat and from
the deafness and buzzing in the ears. With
the relieffrom the catarrhal sympto the gem
ersl health is recovered, the stomach, liver and
kidneys regain their vigor aud the patient feels

THE SPIRIT WORLD, sequel to There Is
no Death BY FLORENCE M MAEEYAT GE.d.
B. Reed, New York City. For sale by the
A. W. Berry Stationery company l20 South
Spring street.
The Spirit World is clearly a sequel to
There Is No Death. 1t is more than
evident that Mrs. Marryat, from her
worldwide experience with all people
and every class of mind. has made her
self thoroughly conversant with the
crying evil which seems born in each
human heart, only to be accentuGted by
each important experience OF life. The
unhappy soul, whether he be Hottentot
or Christian, is perpetually seeking for
a time and place when his unhappiness
shall cease and another phase OF life be
revealed and experienced. Butfeted
about by the adverse winds OF this
world. born, perhaps, without the
capacity to enjoy all that which is re-
fined and beautiful in this life, sunken
under the cloud of either mental or
physical pain, the dim eyes look Won
deringly at the western horizon under
which the sun ia sinking, and he hopes
that in future day when that sun shall
rise in another world, it will shine upon
a happier fate for him.
Can the appeal for immortality--a
cry so world wide. go human, go touch
ing and 30 absolutely nesdful for the
fruition OF all that which is best in
human hearts-be but the vain wall of
discomfort, a querulous, arrogant cry OF
skepticiem, or only a beautiful desire
born in thiH world to die IS unanswered
as the intellect is Indeveloped?
Mrs. Marryat and thousands of earn
- L. l.
mand of the multitude and, not content
with the ipse dixit of science or the
ology, have sought for the answer
within the realms of the occult. and
therein have found proofs of immor-
tality which have convinced the intel
lect, appeased the emotions and satisfied
the longings of their hearts. No one
can read There ia no Death without
periences, in which che has lifted the
veil between the other world and this:
In her late work, The Spirit World, she
has devoted her pen to that class of
mind which the world terms Christian,
and hes shown the biblical student that
the Bible-that book which to him is
infallible-is replete with experiences
almost the duplicate OF her own, and
that if you take from it the evil
dsnces OF spirit return, little will
remain but the cover. The entire
test of Christian excellence, indeed, the
fact of being Christian at all depends
upon-if the Bible be true-the posses.
sor Of gifts like unto those claimed by
the modern sensitive and medium.
Jesus, when he had arisen from the
dead, appeared to the IL apostles and
upbraided them for their unbelief. say
ing: "And these signs shall follow
them that believe: In my name shall
they cast out devils; they shall speak
with new tongues; they shall take up
serpents. and if they drink any deadly
thing it shall not harm them; they
shall lay hands on the sick and they
shall recover" Judging by this stand
ard, the modern crank, the occult idiot
and the credulous spirituslist possess
the test q Thousand times more than the
Christian who laughs at and ridicules

open to the lives about him can find in
what some people call our humdrum
civilized existence Il is almost within
the memory of this generation when a
book dealing with just plain folks would
be considered inartistic and common
place. The atuif OF comedies and TRACE
dies was only supposed to be found in
the lives OF those raised above the pinch
OF poverty; but our modern noyelists,
with better vision and more sympathy
with humanity than their predecessors,
have discovered the beauty and pathos
in the lives of everyday, plal folk. Ar.
Doubleday is one OF those sincere, earn

which puts the new spirit OF humanity

because he is earnest he. lacks humor
That lie the old calumny OF the merely
amusing school of polite scribblers, who
eel themselves to Dives and look only
for the picturesque in human life.
Mr.. Doubleday in an unpreteutious
way shows the everyday struggle OF
honest industry surrounded in city and
country by inequalities of opportunity
and conventional injustice, masquerad-
ing as business tact and thrift and etatu-
cory law.
We have given our ''plain folks" in
lite atuIe a patronizinz pity, but we
have not come into heart touch with
them, known their trials, nor entered
into their lives with neghborly love and
sympathy. But the world depends en-.
tirely upon the common people, they
who give their lives IN service. Is WAS
