grove in which the Phelan family of San
Francisco have built their summer homes
and in the vicinity of James McNeil's at
tractive home, will be the most popular
part of Santa Cruz to those who love "old
ocean," Owing to the general depression
through which the entire country has
been passing building sites in this suburb
are held at a ridiculously low figure, con-

Just one year ago Santa Cruz met with
a frightful loss by fire. The Courthouse
and about fifty buildings lay in ashes. To-
day the burnt district is covered with mod

peared at that time. The Santa Cruz

rough brownstone, is a gem. The A. P.

of Sunshine Villa to the Sea Beach Hotel,
which is on high bluff overlooking the
harbor. This airy place, with its wide
porches, surrounded by veritable thieket
of flowers and vines, is only few steps
from the surf bathing point on the beach,
where merry bathers make the summer
morning hours time of healthful revelry
The rose garden surrounding the tennis

wide through the strong and pleasant per-
sonality of the host, John 7. Sullivan.

United States Government. The process
of combining being the secret OF success,
Mr.. Peyton will likely hold monopoly
over this branch of the powder trade.
Segregation being absolutely necessary,
the powder-mill plant, which is valued at
5000 600, is scattered about among the trees
in this secluded spot which is considered
an ideal place for such line of manufac-
ture. The large kilns, where the alder,
willow and madrona wood after years of
seasoning is made into charcoal for gun
powder, is here. Great heaps of jet black,
velvety Jumps of charcoal lie in the
grinding-room. These huge grinding
machines, like mammoth coffee mills,
grind the charcoal. sulphur and salt
peter. Then these powder ingredients
are sent to the wheelmills, for the
all-important incorporating stage of
powder-making. The grade of the
powder depends on the length of time it is
left under these wheels, each of which
weighs seven and a half tons. A $780, 900 mill
is being put in at the present time for the
making of brown powder prisms for 6
and 8 inch guns. The highest standard SO
far reached in the making of these powder
prisms has been by the Germans, but the
California company expects to reach the
German standard when their new mill is
running.
In the same locality is found the Kron
Tanning Company, most extensive,
well-managed plant, the output OF which
is excellent sole leather.
The hills back of Santa Cruz are scanned
with limestone. Henry Cowen & Co. and
I. L. Thurber have the largest quarries.
Cowel & Co. have large kiIns and warehouse
at the Santa Cruz wharf The Grover
Cunningham Mill and Lumber Company
have large planing-mills at Sequel.
Laguna and Boulder Creek, where they
employ large force of men. They make
heavy shipments of telephone, telegraph
and pile timber. Their extensive yards
are near the Southern Pacific depot,
Santa Cruz. The lumber, lime. bitumen
| and powder make heavy freight ship
ment from this point, much OF which is
done by water.
The natural competition provided by the
ocean keeps the freight rates down to a
reasonable figure in all lines. The wages
paid at the powder-mill, tanneries, lime
quarries. bitumen beds and different lum-
Der camps pour into the channels OF trade
in Santa Cruz. The well-appointed, heav-
lily stocked stores are able to sell at prices
on par with San Francisco. Among the
leading merchants are ]. Strauss of the
Arcade, A. G. Snyder, J. Benheim 81 Co.,
Leask & Johnson, Nassendorf d Staff1er

The financial status of the community is
good, Judging from the reports of the diff
ferent banks which have passed through the
season of "hard times" without having to

been accepted by the Supervisors, and the
active work of construction will soon be
commenced. The building will be in the

main entrance steps and interior stairways
will be of marble. The main entrance will
be beneath graceful arch, from which
will arise massive Roman tower.
The courthouse site is the most centrally
located corner in the business section of
Santa Cruz. The building and improving
spirit became infectious, and the entire
business portion of the city show marks OF
extension and renovation. The well-known
Pacific Ocean House has an entire story
added, also much interior change and I'M
provement. John r. Chace, the proprle-
tor, is one of the most energetic Of men,
always ready to put his shoulder to the
wheel in any scheme which promises to
advance the interests of his beloved Santa
Cruz.
Fishing is the favorite sport, particularly
when the Alaska salmon comes into the
waters of the bay during June, July and
August. Mr.. Chace is an eager, enthuslas-

Santa Cruz has most excellent hotels,
particularly well equipped livery-stables
and prime fruit, vegetable and meat mar
kets. The vineyards and wineries of the
Santa Cruz Mountains produce some OF the
best dry wines in the world. The Santa
Cruz Mountain Wine Company, whose
three-tunneled wine cave is so widely
known, is located in the immediate sub
urbs of the city. All their wine is kept in
this cool even-tempered place until prop
erly aged.
The largest dairy in this county, noted
Tor that line of business, is also located IN
the immediate vicinity of Santa Cruz, on
the coast road. d. D. Wilder here owns
1900 acres in the foothills, over which the
300 COWS belonging to the dairy roam. Mr..
Wilder has two ream-separators, acting

mouth of the San Lorenzo River, on the
site of the mission established here in 1791.
Bitumen mines are being extensively de-
veloped within few miles of the city.
Tons upon tons of this dark, plastic dura-
BILE and most perfect of street-paving ma
terials (when placed on well-made foun-
dation) are being hauled to the Santa Cruz
wharf each day for shipment.
Some of the largest and best-equipped
diaries in the State are found along the
coast north of Santa Cruz, where $4,000
acres are devoted to dairying and pasture.
The pillow has found its way up the steep
hillsides. Fine vineyards are seen where
a few years ago all was dark. woody tan

prunes are being most successfully Guilt

Very fine claybeds suitable for making the
finest of terra-cotta ware have been located
but as yet have not been developed. In
this hum of industry the whispered secrets
of the old Spanish days are hard to catch.
But it is of the living present and future
possibilities of this little city of Santa Cruz
that the busy people of to-day are inter-
ested.
Just now all eyes are turned with more
than usual interest on this city of 5000 in
habitants, which is preparing to give a
Venetian water carnival and floral display
more gorgeous than anything yet at
tempted in this country. The Los Angeles
fiesta is expected to fade into nothingness
when the dreams and plans of the Santa
Cruzans become reality in the glad flower
laden days of June.
The natural beauties and attractions of
this seaside resort are well and widely
known. Men OF wealth, with the world to
choose from, have built their homes on the
terraced hillsides of Santa Cruz overlook
ing the bay OF Monterey. Golden Gate
Villa, the summer home of Major f. Nc
Laughlin, the handsome, genial mining
man of Oroville, located on a high ter
raced point, with wide and commanding
view of mountain, valley and sea, is one of
the most beautiful places in all California.
The architecture is imposing, yet restful.
The many porches and open balcony tow
ers suggest the possibilities of happy hours
in the open air, surrounded by flowers,
palms and vines, which are here in profu-
sion. The interior of lovely Golden Gate
Villa is superb in artistic finish and
furnishings. Here great wealth has gone
hand in hand with exquisite taste, and the
result is beyond compare.
Immediately adjoining Major McLaugh-
Inns is the handsome home of ex-Mayor
Bowman. Around the hill, trife nearer
the sea, is charming Sunshine Villa, the
residence of J. Philip Smith, who is an en-
thusiast over the beauties of scenery and
climate around this crescent bay of Mon
terey. Mr.. Smith, who has lived in all the
gay capitals of Europe and visited the
leading pleasure resorts of the world, has
chosen Santa Cruz as the one spot above
all others.

WAR BREWING AT JUAREz,
Attempt of Mexican Rurales to
Expel Miners to Be Met
by Force.
American Workmen Prepare for
Resistance and Trouble Is Likely
to Occur.

SAN DIEGO, CAL, May 24.--Trouble is
brewing at the Mexican mining camp of
Juarez, some miles below Campo. Miners
arriving at Campo say that the authorities
at Ensenada sent word to Juarez that the
Mexican Government believed miners at
that camp were not making proper and
complete returns of the gold being taken
out, and that continued evasions of the ex-
port duty on both quartz and placer gold
would no longer be tolerated. 1t was de-
cided to exact purchase OF the land being
worked for gold, and if the miners refused
to buy the land at the rate of $3.50 per acre
an armed force would be sent to collect it
or drive them out. In fact the Rurales
accompanied the notification, ready to en-
force orders.
As the price was considered exorbitant
the miners left rapidly, and only few are
left who are not yet decided whether to
pay the price or fight. Those remaining
are Americans and it is said they will rely
on their proximity to the United States to
act rather Independently. They assert
they have taken claims in compliance with
the law and do not propose to give them
up. On the other hand the Rurales stand
ready to shoot and trouble is expected.
