rs the presentation is under the imme-
diate supervision of Mr.. Fred A. Cooper,

little doubt of very large attendance.
The advance sales of tickets are already

pronounced success. The electric cars
will run every five minutes direct to the
grove, and every convenience is in pre-
Iaratiun for the comfort and pleasure of
those that may attend.
The Hospital of the Good Samaritan is
the outgrowth of St. PauPs hospital,

a board OF directors composed of some of
the most respected and sterling men and
women OF the city, and will, when COM

plans and specifications of the building
have been competed for some time, and

THE OUTLOOK STILL BRIGHTER

The Herald has frequently called atten-
ton to the rapid growth of Los Angeles
and the bright prospects before her. In
spite OF the fact that few pessimists
argue to the contrary, the real rise in
Lus Angeles real estate has just begun.
While business has been good in this
city for some time. we might say years
past, the one argument brought to the
front by all pessimists and which they
consider unanswerable is that inasmuch
as business is not prosperous in other
sections, Los Angeles could not always
haunt the flag of prosperity in the face
OF the whole country; tnat We would soon
overdo the thing and would settle back
into the same depressed condition which
prevailed in other. .sections,or the country.
During the past few months change
has come about that knocks out the pessi-
mists' dernier resort argument. Every
day more testimony piles up to prove
most conclusively that the United States
has again entered upon an era of prosper
tty which promises to devoelp into the
greatest one we have ever seen. With
such conditions surrounding us, there can
be no question as to the future of South
ern California. Our resources here are
such that we can outdo any other section
Of the country during panics and adverse
seasons, and in time we could in eco
the most disastrous failures in the east
develop and progress; but with the con-
ditions around MS conducive to prosper.
1ty we will develop the more rapidly.
One of the best indexes to the CONNER
eial prosperity OF the country is the
railroad earnings. The present cond tions
are such as to resssure the most skeptical.
The railroad earnings for July are pre-
sented by the New York Times in the fol-
lowing:
Recent reports of railway earnings show
. gratifying condition of prosperity in
every section of the country. The most
favorable returns, however, have come
from the west and northwest Some of
she Granger roads. even in advance of the
crop movement, are reporting remarkable
increases in traffic receipts. The Chicago
and Northwestern road, for instance,
shows an increase in earnings for the
month of July alone of more than S436. :
600; Omaha reports an increase for the
same month of $780, 000 and the earnings
Of the Wabash system have increased d since

In view of all that has been printed about
the trIbulatons of missionaries in China
it seems pertinent to inquire whether it
would not be wise to first Christianize the
Chinese who are among us and after wards
tackle the far-away heather. There is an
inviting field for home effort right here
in Los Angeles. Only very few.Chinese
have been nominally Christianized here
and it would be interesting to know just
what proportion of that number are
