The knowledge, that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis.
ease, but simply to constipated condi-

ly removes. That Is why 1t Is the only
remedy with millions Of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects arc due TO the fact, that 1t is tho
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating tho
organs on which II acts. 1t is therefore
nll important, In order to get Its bcne-
fetal effects, TO note when you pur-

HOMEMADE HOUSES.
A notable feature in the construction OF
new business blocks in Los Angeles is the
improved style of architecture in vogue.
Plain brick and sheet-iron corn ice fronts
have given way to stone. terra Gotta or
pink, white or buff pressed brick. Most
OF the materials used are OF home manu-
facture. Los Angeles pressed brick are of
very superior quality and brick making is
one of the leading local industries. Nearly
all the structural steel and iron used in
building is also of home manufacture.
Superb building stone Is found in various
parts of Los Angeles County and large
quantities are imported from adjacent
counties and Arizona.
As stated at the outstart OF this article
Los Angeles is city OF homes. Great as
the amount of money is that is being put
into business buildings still greater
amount is being spent in building private
residences. Quite number of residences
have been built in the last few years that
cost from $4,000 to $4,000, but by far the
greater number are the homes of working
men. costing from $1,000 to $1,000. New
residences costing from $4,000 to $4,000 are
also very numerous Probably no other
city on the continent can boast more

The Naval Battalion.

EUREKA, CAL, Aug. 20.-The Fifth
Division Naval Battalion is all agog.
Lieutenant Commander Foley has been
officially notified that the Monterey will
be here some time during the first part of
September and will put the young sailor
boys through a course OF training. 1t is
no trouble now to drum up enough men to
man both boats and have some left over.
Every recruit is trying to catch the COM
manding officers eye, and it is a pleasure
to look upon them at their work.
Three times week both boats are out
drilling on the bay. When the trained
sailors of the warship arrive, the battalion
lads say they will show them that they
have not snuffed salt air for lifetime
without learning something about the art
of managing boat.
Cockswain Rudlen has organized a crew
of six To man the small boat, and when
the Monterey comes will have his lads in
good trim to race the United States life
saving crew team. The Naval Battalion
team consists OF Fred Barnum, George
Ballard, George Rolley, w. A. Johnston,
Edward Betterley and Bert Smith. The
land drills are equally well attended. Out
of the seventy men who comprise the bat
talon, fifty can at any time be got
together.

SAN DIEGO'S GAIN.
Pythtans May Erect Home on the City

Pythtans May Erect Home on the CITY
Park Tract.
SAN DIEGO, CAL, Aug. 23-A decision
was rendered yesterday by Judge Puter-
baugh in the case of San Diego VS.. e. W.
Morse, Bryant Howard, Charles s. Hamil-
ton and M. "A. Luce executors of the will OF
M. Pierce, deceased. whereby lien is
foreclosed on 100 acres of land mbraced in
the City Park. The decision recites that
the city set apart the land to the defend
ants IN trust for the purpose OF establish
ing and maintaining thereon an orphans
home, boys and girls home, kindergarten,
IN dustrlal school and school OF technology.
The defendants planted large number
OF trees on the land, which is the finest in
the park tract, and prior to October l, 1881,
erected house and barn and maintained
an orphans home and kindergarten from
about October /, 1891. No other buildings
were erected, and the defendants have
shown their inability to carry out their
part OF the contract with ths city. hence
the land reverts to the city.
1t is expected that the Grand Lodge OF
the Knights of Pythias IN this State will
Tow take steps to establish home for
aged Pythians, resolution having been
adopted at the last meeting OF the Grand
Lodge accepting an offer made by this
city, through Harry w. Vincent, for a
long term CT years, free of all cost and with
water free for all purposes. The offer OF
the city was contingent upon the decision
rendered yesterday. The Pythians will
expend many thousands of dollars in fit
ting up the tract.

QUESTIONS of the City in
1896

Following Is the second of series
Of articles prepared Under the super
vision of the three commercial bod
les of Los Ange1es-the Chamber
of Commerce, Board of Trade and
Merchants and Manufactures As
sociation- showing the growth of
population and recent industrial
development IN that enterprising
city and vicinity:
The building boom which Los Angeles
has been enjoying for the last five years
goes on apace. 1t was thought that the
climax was reached last year when the
City Superintendent of Buildings issued
2415 permits for building Improvements,
approximating in cost nearly S. 200, 900.
This was exclusive of the outlay of $23S, 900
by the city for new schoolhouses and
$4,000 for a central police station.
Much of the work for which permits
were granted in 1895 was, of course, not
completed within the year, so even if no
additional work had been undertaken saw,
plane and hammer would have kept up
their merry chorus until now. Building
operations projected during the the first
seven months OF 1896, however, exceed in
volume those for the corresponding period
of 1895, though the estimated cost is not
so great.
Up to August /, this year, 1888 building
permits, aggregating an expenditure OF
ST. 704, ,324, were granted. as against 1916
permits, aggregating 81, 2S4, 1897, for the
same period last year. This in spite of
the general financial depression, which
has arrested progress in Los Angeles to
some extent as well as throughout the
country.
The following comparative table, taken
from the City Building Superintendent's
last annual report presents IN concise
form the growth of building operations IN
Los Angeles during the last four years:

The building operations during he year
1895 were classified by theSuperintendento of
Buildings, Charles L. Strange, as follows:
Kind OF improvement. Cost.
1864 dwellings fats, etc..............S2,165 81, 1850

Alterations, repairs etc.. 36l, 5S
To this total should be added, he says,
$50, 600 for the new central police station,
$23S, 600 for new schoolhouses and 100000
for the Bullard block, all of which could
properly be counted as part of the years
operations, and which would swell the
total to the magnificent sum of 50, ,303, 835,
breaking all previous records. The super
intendent also takes occasion to remark
that the mortgages recorded during the
year represented less than one-haH the
amount expended in building construc-
tion and real estate sales, all of which goes
to show high degree of prosperity.
CONTINUED ACTIVITY.
Building operations for the first seven
months of the present year, as compared
with the like period of last year, are shown
by the following table:
