Mrs. U. s. Grant, jr., has just made q
very important investment in the purchase
of the Horton House, one of the leading and
the oldest hotel in San Diego, Cal For
the present nothing will be changed about
the property, but it is understood that in
making the PURCHASE of the hotel il is Mrs
Grants intention to tear down the present
structure within a year and erect upon the
site one of the most ma gnificient hotels in
Southern California.
The Horton House commands a fire Site
OH street, between Third and Fourth
streets, overlooking the plaza. The new
hotel will be second only to the Hotel
Coronado, just across the bay at Coronado
Beach
The furniture of the Horton House is to
be purchased by Mrs Grant The property
was obtained by Mrs Grant at great
bargain There was quite a scramble among
the number of capitalists desirous of pur-
chasing it, One company OF moneycd men
had even gone TO the extent of placing the
amount of the purchase money in bank, pay
able TO Mr. Hadley, who held the mortgage
of $55, 900 in the event of Mrs. Grant
deciding not to become the owner OF the
hotel and adjoining grounds.
The hotel was built by a. f. Horton, the
Father of San Diego" in S69, and before
it was finished cost him $3.50 GOO. Since
that time it has been landmark in Southern
California, and was the Mecca for all
travellers going there in the early days.

A HOTEL GHOST.
The Narrative Of a Singular Esperiesce Of
Lord and Lady Dunrssep.

Apropos of a report that the Brevoort
House was to be closed. which was de.
MED, however, there is a story that Lady
Dunravcn has been known to tell about
the famous old inn. The countess is de-
scribed by those who know her as a wo-
man much more inclined 10 common
sense than TO ghost haunted Cock lanes,
even with DIR. Johnson's authority. She
used TO tell the facts in the tale simply
for what they were worth.
IL was more than one decade ago,
years before the Valkyrie was thought
Of, when Lord Dunraven was first inter
ested in the mining regions Of northern
Michigan. He and Lady Dunraven were
staying in New York for few days be-
fore starting west and had taken rooms
at the Brevoori-pleasant rooms, with
view of the avenue and nice glimpse
OF Washington square. The first night,
being tired with their voyage, they went
early to bed, but, as IL happened, not so
early to sleep Both the earl and count
ess were blessed with hearty English
constitutions. They were not at all ac-
customed to lying awake till the small
hunors.
They wondered what they could have
done, what they could have eaten or
drank to afflict them with such gratui-
tous vigilance. Just at a venture finally
they bundled themselves out into the
adjoining parlor. made themselves ex-
tempOre couches there and slept soundly
till morning. Next night and the night
after there was the same wakefulness
and in the end the same migration TO
the adjoining room for relief. They be-
gan to think they should have to leave
town earlier than they had planned, for
they would not for the world have made
any pretext to shift chambers.
The explanation of the mystery, IL it
was an explanation, came out by chance.
They had call before long from an old
time New Yorker whom they had met
in England, an authority ON all matters
pertaining to the towns minor history.
II wonder" he remarked casually.
that they should have given you these
rooms. You know it was in that room
there, not so long ago, that Mr.. u
hanged himself " 1t was in that room
that Lord and Lady Dunraven had tried
in vain to sleep, and they exchanged sig
nificant glances. OF course it was only
coincidence, they said, but the next
day they took their departure for the
west.-New York Tribune.

for use in the family residence, is the incan-

tleman of Honolulu came rushing down TO
the Office of the Electric Company and said:

so near setting fire to the house and burning

Of Oahu Railway excursion rates on

are large number Of residents who
like to get away from the city on
Sunday. These find the excursions
cheap aud interesting. Especially
is there diversion in visiting either

and kept the grand stand players

strengthened by the addition OF two
new men, Percy Lishman at third

played on a local diamond. Between
Lishman and Clark of the I'm

he did not seem to be at home at left
field. He made several costly errors.
Camel played his usual game at
first For the Unknowns, Thomp-
son, Clark and Willis distinguished
themselves by excellent team duty.
At first, second and third bases
these players worked like clock.

to his usual mark. He made It up
however with the willow, "swiping"
the sphere for three and two bag
gers. The game ended i'll favor
of the Stars with score OF I3 to

In the fifth inning foul ball
struck by ]. o. Carter Jr., flew in
