A HANpsoME .EpIFIcE.
Tho Phillips Business Block ON Nor
Spring Street.

The Phillips Business Block ON North
Spring street.
In reviewing the many handsome and
elaborately constructed business blocks
of the city of Los Angeles, it is an un-
questionable fact that the Phillips block,
situated on the northwest corner of
North Spring and. Franklin streets, will
hold the eye in admiration. The Phil
lips block, owned by Mr.. Louis Phillips,
is most handsomely constructed -busi-
ness block, an edifce which in itself
combines elegance and solidity.
The block is known as the Phillips
block No. l, and has frontage OF 120
feet on North Spring street and like
amount of frontage on Franklin street,
ie constructed of brick and atone and is
four stories high.
The lower portions Of the building, in
Guiding basement, are occupied by some
of the leading firms of Los Angeles,
while the upper floor. comprising in all
120 rooms, are occupied by professional
men of all branches, such as physicians,
dentists, life insurance companies, etc.
The floors all are easy of access by
means of an elevator In the hands of q
trusty man. Aside from that, broad
staircase connects the street with all
the upper floors.
A large glass-covered roof furnishes
daylight for the entire interior OF the
building, which descends to the lower
floor through the spacious light-well lett
in the center of the interior, which on
each story is surrounded by handsome
railing, finished in natural wood.
A wainscot three and one-half feet
high and finished off in a similar man.
ner as the railiags and all the other
woodwork, runs along the corridors.
The building throughout is substan-
tial and thoroughly freproof. Both gas
and electricity are being used for the
lighting of the block.
There is an annex to the Phillips
block extending to the rear, fronting on
Franklin. and is 81 feet long. This por-
tion of the Phillips block is also occu-
pied by an extensive business firm.
III Tho management i oi tho building building Is Is
placed in the able hands of Messrs.
Krum. Campbell & Co., who attend to
all business in connection with the
Phillips block.
Mr.. Louis Phillips in thus orna-
menting one OF the main thoroughfares
of the city with such handsome busi-
ness block, has erected for himself
lasting monument OF energy and enter
prise. 1t is mainly due to such public
spiritedness as displayed by Mr.. Phil
lips that Los Angeles today poses as one
OF the most beautiful cities on the
Pacific coast. With such men as Mr..
Phillips in the lead, the word ''fail'' ia
stricken from the dictionary. Southern
California in general and Los Angeles
in particular may justly feel proud of
such man as Mr.. Louis Phillips.

AN EXCITING EXPERIENCE.
And When 1t Was All Over tho Station
Agent Mendcd Things.

And When It Was All Over tho Station
Agent Mendcd Things.
At way station on the Louisville and
Nashville one winter the station keeper
had an exciting time. 1t was midnight,
and the station being In a deserted part
Of the country had been left by the loaf
ers. It began to rain. The station keeper
was not sleepy and determined to sit up
a greater part of the night, especially as
he had an unusual sum of money in his
cash drawer, and he felt uneasy aboutit.
Robberies of stations and far1nhouses
down the line had been frequent. So he
settled himself down to vigil. AS he
felt hungry he took can of cove oysters
down from the shelf and set it in the
stove. A moment afterward there was
knock at the door, and he admitted
cold, drenched tramp, whom he allowed
to lie down by the fire. Just then train
came around the bend, and the station
agent stepped outside to display the go
ahead signal. He felt distrustful of the
tramp and feared that he would fool
with the money drawer. AS the train
passed he hurried into the room and had
scarcely opened the door and seen the
tramp standing by the stove with some
thing glistening in his hand, when there
was a report, and the agent felt a sting
ing sensation over his eye.
Although blinded with blood from the
wound, he drew his pistol and fired five
times into the room. He then dashed
round to the rear of the station and hid
under the platform. After an hours
time he crawled out, resigned to the loss
of his money and thankful that he had
escaped with his life. The room was
dark; the fire was out. The tramp had
evidently escaped with his booty. Sor-
rowfully the agent lit match, but
instantly dropped it when startling
sight met his eyes. He lit another one,
found a candle and gazed about at the
scene of desolation.
The lamp had been shattered by a
bullet. A cheese had been perforated
with two bullets. The room was filed
with smoke from the stovepipe, which a
fourth bullet had perforated. Strangest
of all, the room was filed with cinders,
and oysters frescocd everything. Oys-
ters, oysters, oysters, cove oysters. The
agent gasped and realized it all. The
can had remained in the stove too long,
and being sealed up had exploded from
the steam when the tramp poked the
fire. OF course tho tramp skipped when
the shooting commenced. The cash
drawer was intact. A piece Of tin was
found near tbs door, where it had re-
ooiled oil the agents face. Tho agent
spent the remainder Of the night in
mending the stove door.-Louisyille

One Of the most charming settlements

Importance, is Banning. This village 10
situated in Riverside county. on the
line Of the Southern Pacific, and is
almost so miles east of Los Angeles. It
has an altitude Of 23l7 feet above sea
level, and claims pre-eminence an
deciduous fruit-growing section. 1t IL
too high for the successful raising of the
citrus fruits, but the soil, altitude and
temperature seem suited for the peach,
pear, almond, cherry and all the decid-
uous family, and there is no place in
the whole of California, not excepting
the Napa valley, where these fruits
attain greater perfection than at Ban
ming. The water supply iH excellent
and never-feiling, and irrigation on the
most approved methods Is practiced.
1t is only few years since the late
General Phineas Banning pastured his
sheep in the San Gorgonio pass and
gave a railroad siding his name. Now
between 5000 and 1000 acres of the erst-

deciduous fruit orchards and vineyards,

past six years has devolved upon Ma. O.

Death NV rar,,ne 4. ple..an..

Most people regard death by fall as one
OF the most agonizing forms Of dying This
opinion il erroneous. The first fact to be
considered Il that the subjective feelings In
the various kinds OF fall are the same.
There are people who have escaped death
by hairbrcadth who reached the stage
OF Inconsistencies and who are able to re-
port what they felt. A scientific gentle
man who hns occupied himself with this
interesting question for many years bases
his observations on personal experience.

occurred no. only in the mountains, but
also In war, IN industrial establishments
and in railway accidents.
The victim suffers no pain, no paralyzing
terror. He Ia perfectly aware Of what is
going on. The time seems long to him.
In few seconds he Is able to think so
much that he can report for an entire hour
