A BIG FALL MEETING.
Los Angeles VIII Guido All Her Previous
Efrorts In the Racing Line.

Los Angeles Will Guido All Her Previous
Efforts In the Racing Line.
Los Angeles will give away some.
thing like $50, 900 at the annual fall
meeting in October. This is the biggest
amount of money ever offered by dis
trict association in California, and the
pluck and liberality of the big southern
California association are sure to attract
the best horses of many states.
Without any exception, Los Angeles
IL the banner light harness racing city
in America. In the past five years there
has always been one day where the at.
tendance has reached over 1000, while
it has gone as high as Is, 200, and, with
the increased population, it is safe to
predict that q race between sensational
performers will draw out 20, 900. This
! is record that even the cities on the
national grand circuit cannot equal.
| Los Angeles introduces an innovation
this year which will prove very popu-
lar with trainers and owners. Four
purses are announced which should re-
ceive an unprecedentedly large entry
list, not only on account of the size of
the purses, but OH account of the liber-
atty of the conditions. These classes
are: Trotting, 2:12 class, purse 81 200 /;
trotting, $3.50 class, purse $1,000; pac-
ing, 2:17 class, purse 1900; pacing
2:30 class, purse 81, 200.
The above are mile heats, best three
i'll five. The entrance money is but
per cent, with per cent additional de-
Quoted from money winners. In other
words, any one can start in 81, 200
purse for the moderate sum of $36 A
feature Of the programme is double
team race for purse of 5000.
The other light harness races are as
follows: Trotting, free for all. $1,000;
2:15 class, $500; 2:17 class, $500, and
$3.50 class, $780, Pacing, free for all,
81, 200; 2:12 class, $500, and $3.50 class,
$500. There are also 2-year- old pace
and 2-year old trot on the programme.
In addition to the above the association
has reserved money for big special.
The running programme will not be
issued for some time, but 50. more
than heretofore has been appropriated
by the directors Of the Los Angeles as

Dear Sir-Replying to your courteous
letter of the a2nd inst, nothing could
give me greater pleasure than that of at
tending the convention which YOU are to
hold on the 9TH, Sth and 9th of July prox-
limo, and to which you have cordially in

is equally true that we need not be in
each others actual presence in order
to realize the feeling of fellowship
and friendship for though mountains in
tervene and seas should separate US, we
could still touch hearts in all the fullness
of fraternal sympathy. In thanking you.
then, for your cordial invitation, be as
sured my heart will be with you upon
the occasion which is to make so many
good people happy with hospitality
which isaiways generous and joy-giving.
With best wishes, fraternaiiy yours.

A musical entertainment will be given
by the Daughters of the Confederacy'
on July Goth, in Washington Hall, for
the purpose of raising money TO be ap-
piled for the marking of the graves of
our fallen heroes who lie in the burying
grounds of our town. This is an object
worthy of our noblest efforts-a heritage
left us by Jealous ancestors who gathered
their remains from remote points where
they had fallen in the heat of the conflict
and placed them here for this porpose,
that coming generations might see what
had been offered in the cause of right
the defense of our native land. 1t is
hoped that not only the people of our
town, but of the whole county will feel
such an interest in this long DELAYED stem
that they will DO all they can to insure
such success as will enable us at some
early day to take action toward the con-
summation OF this long cherished hope.
whereby we honor not them but ourselves
and our posterity.

Not True.

This community was shocked last Friday
evening by the report that our esteemed citi-
zen, Hon. A. s. cambridge, was dead. Mr..
cambridge was out of town at the time and
report started. But, nevertheless, Madame
Rumor reigned supreme and ex citement ran
high. While our people We're in this state
of excitement anxiety, the supposed dead
man rode up street and dispeiled the gloom
of the terrible report by his bright smiles and
happy greeting. Sometimes it is diff cult to
tell how many friends person has or how
sincere that friendship is until that person
is dead or supposed to be. The excitement
and interest in the report last Friday even
ing goes to show that Hon. A. $. Dandrldge

would be irreparable, but that lie is much
beloved by our people, who hope that he
may be spared many more years of prosper

CHARACTER
there is just as much difference il
clothing-as there is in people. Some
are expressive in their general appear
ance, they have character. The style
design, finish, Workmanship, material
all contribute to the desired effect.
OUR CLOTHES
possess an ivdescnbable something
which stamps them as ''high-class," 1t
is the result of tailoring art, applied by
tailoring brains, to the best tailoring ma
terial. Underbuy and undersell has
been our battle cry; it has placed our
banner way up on commercial heights,
while the indolent and the initators of
trade are YEARLY plodding by the way
side.
SUCCESS
is evanescent, to hold it in Your ranks,
you must be alert, handle the right goods,
keep you business alive with new meth
DDS, new goods and new ideas.
Cheap made clothes made cheap look
ing people $500 and $500 clothes are
not cheap, we don't sell them. Clothes
must be good, must have appearance,
