that clv,, s., O0O, 900 worth Of its stock was
offered for sale and between sixteen and
seventeen millions promptly subscribed.
At this time Mr.. Herman w. Hellman
assumed the vice-presidency Of the insti-
tuition and, as its manager, has guided its
destinies ever since. Under the many
financial strains which have passed over
the country since the organizatoin of this
bank, it has always had ample means to
take care of itself and to lend aid TO its
less fortunate contemporaries. No one
of its numerous local correspondents has
ever felt the need of other aid than that
which it has cheerfully extended to them.
Since Mr.. l. W. Hsllman assumed con-
troll of the Nevada bank its stock has
advanced from par to 1870 to 1856, while

I OF inter-urban transportation within
recent years has placed before the public
an opportunity of reaching locations 1or
homes beyond the busy district, and has
at the same time reduced the loss OF time
to ths business man in traversing long
distances to a minimum. In the case VI
the Workman tract. contracts have peen
concluded whereby two lines OF rapid
electric transit will be extended into IL IN
the immediate future. One Of these
lines will be made by the conversion OF
the First-street cable line to that OF an
electric, and the other will be by the
extension of the Fourth-street line direct
ly through the middle of the tract. by
this means the property in Boyle Heights
will advance rapidly in price and Will
90 on up IN the market to figure which
its delightful location and charming sur
roundings alike entitle it to. This prop
erty will thus be brought WITHIN elgnt
minutes OF the very heart OF the BUSH
ness area of the city.
ALREADY the influx of homo seekers has
set in in this direction. Along Boyle avenue
are now some of the handso.nest resi-
dences of the city, while the amount of
building that is in course OF construction
is astonishing to the residents OF mat
part of the city. at the present time
property is offered at exceptionally low
terms there, but with the extension OF
lines of cars there will be an immediate
advance.
When it is considered that Boyle
Heights is the only elevated residence
site available about the city. the wonder
is that i. has been suffered to so long re-
main unimproved. at the present time,
with the rapid development OF the oil in
dustry, the high residence sites in the
region of the wells must be given up and
locations elsewhere obtained. To this
