Wharf-Notes.
SANTA MONICA, Feb. 10.-The tourist
season is on in earnest, and the Arcadia
is full to overlooking with delighted
guests, who are enjoying life as they can
nowhere else.
The Hotel Jackson was in like con-
dition last night. A grand photographic
concert was enjoyed by all present, and
delighted they were, too.
NO BAD EFFECTS FROM THE STORM.
The wind blew as it never has before
here all Friday afternoon and evening,
but there is not the slightest bad effect
from the storm OF wind, high seas and
rain. The matchless wharf OF the South
ern Pacific, just north Of town, stand
ing like rock of ages against the bill
lows and smiling at their efforts.
Two fishermen, who tried to 20 out in
fishing skiff, were capsized, and when
their boat foated in with their hats,
every one supposed they were drowned,
but this morning they showed up ali
right, saying they stayed all night on
the tug Collins.
Even the old wharf, which has the
sign danger" on it, showed up smiling
ly all o. K. this morning, which speaks
far greater than all the reports of engi-
neers or Mandatory writings of would-be
harbor builders, it being an object les
son We all hope the members of the
chamDe of commerce will learn on their
Welt to the Arcadia at their annual
banquet.
THE WOOD CASE.
Friday it was ginger and yesterday
wood, with the flavor of eucalyptus, in
Judge TwichelPs court room, the case
being Mrs. Helen M Lewis vs. M. Noon,
the plaintiff suing fer the value of the
wood in number Of trees which were
cut in front of the premises rented by
her by the contractors. She claiming
they belonged to her by virtue OF a gift
from the landlord, Mr.. Joseph Dixon.
The case bids fair to be a celebrated one
here and will undoubtedly determine the
question of whether the town or the
property owner owns the trees in front
OF his premises.
