years, read many pages in this paper
which have referred to one of the
largest commercial houses in Califor-
MIA. They have been in business under
the same banner. JACOBY BROS, for

though their mammoth establishment
the other day, and receive an intro

dent firm, except the New York buyer,

in the East, and MIR. A. JACOBY, who
has retired from the firm. l have had

garrison in 1893. Is a member Of
Stanton Post No. 35, by transfer, and
is assistant inspector-general Of the
Regular Army and Navy Union for
Southern California. Said COL.
BEAHN, "Allow me to introduce MIR.
JAMES p. CHRISTIE, who, next to
CAPT. GREEN. Is one of the oldest
clothing statesmen in the store;" age of
service, but not of years was meant and
l found that MIR. CHRISTIE had been
with the house for seven years. He
was born in Springfield, Ill, ON July
p, 1868, and, while he has a faint
recollection of Abraham Lincoln, still,
he owns up to no intimate acquaint-
ance. He came to Los Angeles in 1856,
and finding this section adapted to his
constitution, he settled here, and soon
after entered the service of this, the
largest clothing house in Southern Cali
fOrnia. Who Is that gentleman with
the black mustache? said 1. ''That,"
says MIR. CHRISTIE, ''is FRED S.
MESSMORE." Upon introduction l
found MIR. MESSMORE busy wait
ing upon customer, and upon bow
ing him out, apparently well-pleased,) }
he said he had been with the firm four
years, or ever since his arrival in the
city. He wouldn't tell me his age, but
I guessed that he was born in Still
man, ILL.,, some thirty-two years ago,
and like all others he came West, and
today is selling clothing for this great
firm. p. e. GREY was next intro
duced by myself, and in him I found
an old friend. He was formerly of
PITCHER & GREY Of this city, WHO
were for a number of years in busi-
ness on Main street. MR.. GREY had
not changed in the least. He has been
in the clothing business for nearly
twenty years. He owns up to thirty five
winters and an equal number of sum-
mers, and has been in JACOBY BROS.'
employ for the past eighteen months.
He came to Los Angeles thirteen years
ago, and was born in Belfast, Me. He
is an expert judge of worsteds, and
has charge of the dress-suit depart
ment. MIR. GREY can always be found

Los Angeles store; all goods purchased
in the East are sent to the New York
office, and, In turn, shipped to South
ern California, via various routes, and
one seasons shipments will represent
many carloads of merchandise. The
San Francisco office is located at No.
80 Second street. and here great
many Of the home products are manu-
factured. The store proper is located at
Nos. 12S. 100, 132 and 1874 North Spring
street, the shoe department running
through to No. 1913 North Main street.
The Spring-street frontage occupies
two entire floors, which are given over
to their stock of goods, which is by
long odds the largest in Southern Cali
fornia.
Knowing that so large a firm must
be a large employer of salespeople,
cashiers, book-keepers and assistants;
l asked, and was granted permission,
to interview each and every one. BY
member of the firm was introduced
to MIR. A. M. GREEN, captain, every
one calls him, and, after few mo-
ments conversation, found I had been
shown the right man. CAPT. GREEN
is undoubtedly known to every resident
of Los Angeles. He is general super
intendent Of the big store and has been
in the employ of JACOBY BROS. for
fifteen years. He was born in Salt
Lake City, Utah, thirty seven years ago
and came to Los Angeles in 1869. He
is prominent in labor circles, being
past president of the Los Angeles
Council of Labor, and at present oc-
cupies the Office of president of the Re-
tail Clerks Association. having been
reelected four times. He is jolly,
genial gentleman, and gave me many
points about this store of stores, Capt.
Green. being then called away, 1
started out on my own hook, and
"chinned" every employee in the house.
The large man who meets you at the
door with q smile, and directs your
footsteps "bargain-ward," found to be
a man with history. He is COL.
FRANK r. BEAHN. and comes from
staid old Boston. He owns up to so
years of age. thirty of which have been
passed in the clothing business. He
arrived in Los Angeles about four
months ago. and at once entered the
employ of the firm. Here Is his war
record: He enlisted in the Corps Of
United States Engineers in 1861, and
served until 1865. He has held many
important offices in the GAR. the last

the machines, the click of shears and
the noise of the pressing-irons were
confusing. MISS LILLE DAVIS is the
seamstress in this department. In an
other room l found more tailors con-
nected with the ready-made depart
meDt. Every suit, that leaves this store
is fitted to the form or pressed, so that
the wording of custom made" can be
applied to all suits that daily pass out
of this great store. At the head of this

that he was too busy to bother with
me; that he had lots of work and knew
how to do it. GEORGE w. LORING.

1 thought I had seen clothing on the
floor below, but here was a stock. I
was cordially greeted by MIR. N. H.
JACOBY, who is manager of the Sec
ond floor. He inquired after my wants,
and, when told that wanted him, es-
corted me through the various depart
ments, and in reply to my many ques-
tions answered me by saying that
trade was "out of sight" that he had
a full force of statesmen and sales

with the trade; that he was native

and for year and half of that time
he has put a tape-line around the Gus

Her Graduating Sleeves.

Why does the sweet girl graduate
Seem so pre- occupied?
Why does she haunt the dressmaker,
AS if she were a bride?
All day, and half into the night,
Her fancy visions weaves;
She's putting her whole soul into
Her graduating sleeves.
Maybe she has an essay, too,
On some important theme,
Like, How to make home happy" or
care things just what they seem?'
But that which, till troubled sleep
Her active brain relieves,
Absor9s her thoughts is, what she'll have
For graduating sleeves.
Of course, there'll be, to hang them on,
A graduating dress:
But that gets little thought from her,
And other things still less,
That faithful pair Of big balloons
Alone her care receives;
Her life just now is conferred in
Her graduating sleeves.

THE OUTLOOK BRIGHT.
Last Week Was a Good One for the Grow

The sunshine and rain of last week
weIo Of immense value to the growing
crops in Georgia.
The weather crop bulletin, issued Fri
day, tells most encouraging story OF the
con iition Of the crops al over the cOun-
try. The bulletin issued Friday is as
follows:
'''rhis week closes with crops in -four
ishing condition throughout the entire
stare. Rains have been frequent but un
evenly distributed and while no crop is
actually suffering some sections would
be greatly benefited hy moisture. Sun
shine and temperature have been perfect
for the growth and development of all
crops, fruits and vegetables. Wheat and
oats are about harvested; the first named
crop will not turn out very well, but still
better than was recently expected. Oats
are very fine, though the acreage is small.
The bulk of the corn crop is laid by in
excellent condition. Cotton continues
small, but is showing steady improve,
ment; the fields are free from grass and in
fine state Of cultivation, while the plants
have good healthy color and are remark
ably free from lice. Bugs are damaging
watermelon vines in a few localities, but
as rule the outlook is encouraging for
this, as all other minor crops. Fruits are
abundant, peaches especially being very
plentiful"

Farmers and Their Debts.
From the Albany Herald.

from Cne Albany H6TdIu.
There was an important discussion on
change in Augusta the other day. 1t was
stated that farmers owned less money
than people in other branches of business
and this was followed up by the declar-
alton that farmers paid their debts better
than other people. Phinizy & Co. said
thqt the losses of their firm on advances
to farmers had not amounted to $500
since they have been in business. The
money lost by cotton men was lost
through advances made to merchants,
they declared, and n It to farmers.
