Feast Of Passover

Next Saturday evening at sunset. March
2Sth, corresponding to the Jewish date of
the 18th day of Nissan, 5656, all Israel
who still cling to the Jewish ceremonies,
will inaugurate the solemn Feast of Pes
ach, or Passover. Rev. A. W. Edelman
will conduct the services before the Moses
Montefiore congregation at Masonic hall,
No. 1855 South Spring street. Services
commences at & pm. The feast of Pass
over (which Israel will begin to celebrate
privileges Of liberty and independence.
The Sabbath preceding this great feast is
called "Shabbas Hag-godoul," the great
Sabbath. 1t is to remind Israel that the
greater the privileges we hope to enjoy in
the great future, the more onerous shall be
the duties devolving upon us here. And
anyone praying for and expecting the
former, must train himself to the fulfil
ment of the latter. Striving for liberty,
we must think of the duties it entails.
Ancient rabbis have. therefore, recon-
mended that ON this particular Sabbath
lectures should be delivered in their syna-
gogues and colleges to instruct the people
in the observance Of Passover, and to re-
mind their Weather brethren that, as the
observance entails great expense to the
poor and respectable men, who cannot
come to beg their Passover bread, the rich
should assist their less fortunate brethren
in the performance of the sacred law. The
Haphtorah read on this Great Sabbath"
speaks plainly on this subject; more eX-
plicitly than it would be practical for the
prophets or rabbis of the present time to
make it.
But the last two verses of the Haphtorah
are indeed remarkable for its adaptabiIity
to the present time and circumstances.
"Behold, will send you Elijah, the
prophet, before the great and the terrible
day of the Lord comes, and he shall turn
the hearts of the fathers toward the chill.
dren, and the hearts of the children toward
their fathers" (Malachi, 3, 23.24.)

W. c. T. U. MEETING
DR.. Wilson Addresses the Society on Ransom
Work

Work
DR.. John A. B. Wilson, after his prac-
tical manner, spoke on DR.. Parkhurst's
Work and Our Work Before the Los An
geles Woman's Christian Temperance
Union yesterday afternoon at the First
Baptist church.
DR.. Wilson touched very briefly on DR..
Parkhurst's reform work, the outcome of
which, he said, had met with divided opin-
ions. The speaker evidently did not wish
to commit himself further than to state
that DR.. Parkhurst's system of breaking
up the resorts of ill-fame in the slums of
New York, which resulted in the spreading
of vice over that city, had the advantage of
scattering crime; that crime scattered was
danger lessened.
In reference to reform work among
women, DR.. Wilson believed that the rescu-
ing feature generally possessed romantic
side for philanthropists and that it was
much easier to raise $1,000 for reforma-
tories than to obtain half that amount to
keep people from going astray; he himfelf
had not much sympathy with the ''lachry-
mosing" over fallen women. He thought
reform work well enough in its way, but he
believed first in those instrumentalities
that kept women from falling.
The doctor spoke strongly on the neces-
sity of instituting homes for poor young
orphans or friendless women who wIre
working on starvation wages. He described
such a home in New York, where board
and lodging and many of the comforts of
everyday life were provided for W week.
In this manner DR.. Wilson believed pre-
ventatve methods could not fail to take
precedence of all ransom and reform work..

Second Lecture on Artistic Anatomy Yester-
day by Dr.. Davidson.
No. 2 of the course of twelve lectures on
"Artistic Anatomy by DR.. A. Davidson,
running at the School of Art and Design on
Wednesday mornings from o'clock until
10, was given yesterday before an inter-
ested audience of pupils and visiting art
students. This lecture, with the frs. in
the series, comprised the preliminary
course of the study Of the human form,
dealing principally with the bones of the
frame. A skeleton was used as an illus
tration.
In the coming addresses, however, a live
model will form very advantageous aid
to the instruction, and the students will
draw from both models. Next Wedn es-
days lecture will be confined to the m u.s.
cles of the body.
Through the courtesy of Mr.. and Mrs.
Mcleod all art students. as we'll as the
pupils of the school, have been extended q
welcome to attend and may share the adj
vantaRes of the whole series of lectures.
The famous system of Duval is the one fol-
lowed by DR.. Davidson.

THE REALTY MARKET
Demand for City and Country Lands-saies
Reported

Demand for City and Country Lands-ssies
Reported
City lots available for immediate inn
provement find reasonably prompt sale.
and there is considerable improvement in
the inquiry for country lands. Numerous
projects looking to the establishment of
sugar factories, and the increased atten-
ton given to canaigre and ramie have
caused a good deal of inquiry in Los An
geles and in adjoining counties for large
bodies of land adapted to the culture of
one or some of these products. Actual
sales of country lands, however, are for
the most part confined to small tracts in
the neighborhood of settled districts, where
school facilities are available, and from
which living income may be obtained.
The market for city lots has improved
and sales are more numerous than for q
long time past. The buyers are rarely
spectators and almost invariably buy for
immediate improvement.
Among the sales reported during the last
three or four days the following are noted |:
Fred and Mary E. Allen have sold lots
10 and 20 of F. A. Marston's subdivision
to Susie Hall for 500.
James H. Wilgus has purchased 25
acres of the rancho Tajauta, paying $lO,.
900, or $500 per acre, for it.
j. f. Br0ckman has paid 5000 for lot 2,
block 2, of the Main street and Whining
ton avenue tract.

acres on Sunset boulevard near Hollywood.

To Get One Of the Introductory Sets Of the

The few introductory sets of the new die.

Syndicate is distributing will have been ex-
hausted in a very few days and the splen-
did volumes sent on their mission OF en-

thus place a number of sets in cultured

compared with other dictionaries and
cyclopedias.
There is nothing like SECULAR proof"
when it is desired to demonstrate the su-
periority of one book over another, and
this principle was also applied in opening
syndicate headquarters at 40 South Spring
street, where the volumes could be in
spected at leisure. The place has been
thronged each day by those who were de-
sirous of securing the work at the excep-
tionally low price and on the extremely
easy terms of payment arranged for the
introductory Gets.
After these are gone the regular subscrip-
ton price of $42 per set will prevail. 1t
will make its possession more difficult for
people of moderate means. In a very few
days the Introductory sets will have been
claimed, and the distribution of the work,
except by subscription, will be closed.
Readers, therefore, must hurry to take ad.
vantage OF the opportunity which is not

WILTSHIRE BOULEVARD HOTEL
Over Half Of the Total Amount Desired Now
Subscribed

An important meeting was held yester-
day afternoon in the chamber of commerce
building to consider a plan to build a first
class tourist hotel on the Wiltshire boule
ward tract. Col. A. B. Hotchkiss presided
at the meeting and Geo. ". Parsons acted
the meeting in regard to the importance of
this project. In the course of the gentle
mans exhaustive and vigorous address he
said: Now, in referring to the advantages
and merits Of locating.a hotel on the Will
shire boulevard tract, do not for one
stand that l am opposed to building an
other first class hotel and would not de-
tract one iota from the beautiful site offer
ed on tho Silent property. But do think
that Los Angeles is able and could support
two first class hotels, and like building the
two railroads, each would help the other.
Let the fact be known that we had two
first class tourist hotels finished in time
for next years business and both will be
filled to overflowing. What does the
building of this hotel mean for Los An
geles? First, good profit to the stock
holders. Second, the expenditure of $780,
900 for the building and furnishing the
same among the merchants and tradesmen
of Los Angeles.
Third-The transportation of 800 tour.
lists over the two railroads at 500 each, or
$4,000 to $4,000 to the Santa Fe and
Southern Pacific roads. Three hundred
guests would mean $4,000 a month
among the grocers, butchers and other
parties for the supplies for this hotel, aud
each guest would spend at least from IS to
$1T per day. or $40 to 500 per month,
among the retail stores of this city. We
have, we think, feasible plan to build
this hotel, and with your support we will
have same finished before January 1st.
II. G. Wiltshire also made a few remarks
and announced that 100000 had been
raised by subscription as follows: The
