THE FASCINATION OF ANGLING.
How the True Fisherman Enjoys His
 Sport

SpOrT.
 The anglers art, writes Dr A. T. Bristow, in the Worlds Work, is but pretext, or, rather, the incentive, to "a ramble, and not the sole object of the fisherman, unless, alas he belongs to that too common variety, the man whose sole object is his catch. Such a man fishes with worm, hides finger lings in the depths of his basket and photographs his catch as a witness of his crimes. He is not a fisherman, but a butcher. A yellow primrose on the river's bank is to him primrose and nothing more. The true fisherman loves to catch fish, to match his wits against the wary trout, but as he wan ders from pool to pool the songs of the birds greet him restfully; every turn in the stream reveals a nook in which strange wild flowers nestle The gen tie excitement of the sport prevents the scene from becoming too monot- onous. The element of chance, the un certainty of the catch, add the drop of tobasco sauce which gives zest to the day. And the noontide meal by the brink of the stream.
 When did a meal have a more de- lightful flavor? Delmonico never serv ed a trout like unto those we have eaten by the banks of mountain brook, with the clear blue sky above, the waving forest round about and the murmuring stream at our feet. The hour of contemplation comes after ward with the pipe of peace in. our hand, instead of the relinquished rod. How far off the city seems! Are there such things as corporations, trusts, stocks, bonds, electric lights that amaze the sight, harsh warnings of trolley gongs, the rumble and grind of the wheels and the brakes on the. ele- vated road which alright the earl The harshest note that breaks the stiffness here is the boom of the bit tern in the distant marsh. Home to camp the fisherman goes, taking a cast in this silent pool in which the trout rose in the forenoon to his cast but missed the fly, or in that dark hole deep under the bank. in which a vigi lant eye may detectAhe brown sides of trout with lazily waving fins and tail-an old campaigner not easily caught.

Do you watch your competitors newspaper advertising as closely as you watch his show windows? It's not good business plan to be too well satisfied. It's an undeniably good business plan to admit, if you feel that it's, true that the other fellow has made bis advertising little too good for your comfort and peace of mind; to find out by cold -blooded comparison, in what respects his advertisement beats vours~-and then, in quiet whisper to yourself, determine to set the pace for him for a while.

MT. Hope, whose ton Costume. real name is Hawkins, is nearly twice her age. He is by profession a lawyer, but does not practice; his father is clergyman of the Church of England, and will perform the marriage cere- mony. aq9
 The means of making these two ac-, quainted was apparently the New York girl known as Julie Opp during upon the stage and in private life as Mrs. William Faversham. Fav- ersham is English, also; he got honestly enough the soldierly bearing that makes him hero to the matinee girl. He was once 8 soldier in the British army.
 Lord Fairfax-the mere naming of his name is a plunge into American historyl His ancestor was the famous Fairfax, of Cromwell. When "the king came to his own'' it was conve- nient for that Fairfax to come to Amer ica. A later Fairfax was the recluse owner of "Greenways court" and the friend and benefactor of raw, lanky lad with stern jaw whose name was Washington.
 Ten years ago the living Lord Fair fax was country doctor near the city of Washington; when he died the title fell to a young fellow in a Wall street brokers office. This Lord Fairfax has left Wall street for good, lucky that he can. He attended the coronation cere- monies of King Edward in the queer costume of 8 Scots baron, looking much like one of his own ancestors, and not an exceedingly up-to-date young man of 33. He will not return to the United States to live.
 I do not know any reason why he should. No one will cut off his head nowadays because his ancestor fought for Cromwell But somehow I like better the idea of that Lord Fairfax who was just country doctor, urging his lazy old horse through the rain to a patients bedside and rather for getful about collecting his bills. espe- cially when the patient was poor. There was the real romance.

THE CITY OF ANGELS.
Crowded by Tourists Afflicted with
California Fever.
Good Place for Artisans and Labor

for Clerks and Profes-
sLonnI Men.
fs,ecial.Los Angeles letter.

TT is a well-known fact that at no
time in its history has there been
such an influx of travel towards
southern California as at the present.
During all last winter, all summer,
people have been pouring in, settlers
by thousands and tourists in uncouht-
ed numbers. During single week
5000 people came in over one line. An
other railroad man stated that ne
thought a conservative estimate Ior
his road was about $500 weekly. Most
of these people come to Los Angeles
and go out through the country from
this point. Thousands remain here
and the question of how they are to be
housed and fed has been very ably
met. From December 1, 1901, to
November %, 1902, there were issued
4,2sS building permits at $500 9.
From November l to November 22'
1902, permits for 81 ,034, roe were grant
ed. This shows the best three weeks
Los Angeles has had. The year Will
probably show about S9,500,00O worth
of permits issued. This growth is in
every direction where not stopped by
the hills. 1t is especially noticeable
towards the ocean; the IL miles to the
Pacific will probably be covered by this
progressive little city within few
years. Miles of streets of handsome
residences, with beautiful grounds are
being laid out. The city is doing her
best to provide for the greatness which
is being thrust upon her.
There is a great deal of inquiry in
the east regarding southern California.
Many people are conservative enough
to desire to know something about

to q Great Extent.

In order that he might see the i'm
provements made of late years in the
railway service of the country the
first train dispatcher who sent or
ders by telegraph when employed on
Vermont line recently made a trip
on one of the leading southern rail-
roads and was asked to tell what
he thought was the greatest adj.
vance in American railroading-the
modern locomotives, the heavier
rails, the signal systems, the inn
proved cars, the new roadbcds, the
automatic brakes or the new meth
DDS of switching. Allowing all the
Importance of all these, he declared
the chief improvement in the safety,
celebrity and profit in American rail-
reading to be the present system of
double tracking which is being stead
lily extended to all main lines of the
country, says a railway authority.
At the beginning of 1901 there were
10000 miles of main or single track
on the railroads of the United States
and $4,000 miles of second track. Ten
years before that there were 156, 900
miles of main or single and 5000
miles of double track.
In the ten years intervening the
amount of double track increased so
per cent, while the amount of single
track increased less than 25. At the
present ratio of growth in a few
years the chief railroad systems will
have their main lines all double
tracked, all the branch, subsidiary
and feeding lines, which constitute
very large part of every railroad
system, do not require double-track
service.
On 'single-track line having
large business the running of trains
ON schedule time is practically inn
possible and the danger of accidents
by collision OF derailment is much
greater. A single breakdown para
lyzes the whole line and the main
tenance of sidings is continual item
Of cost requiring great care in opera
ton.
For all three reasons double track
ing has come to be considered an es-
sential to up-to-date railroad sery-
ice. There were even, at the las.
computation. 1000 miles of third
track on American railroads and ooo
miles of fourth track. The remain
der Of the mileage is made up of sid
ingx and yard track.

quires time to do it properly. The
scenery is delightful, and Redlands,
in winter, possesses strong element
of the mysterious. One drives through
almost tropical luxuriance of tree and
flower and wonders what is
transpiring off in the strange, Shin
ing, snow-covered distance. White
San Jacinto has been giving out
many hints of subterranean
disturbance which its placid surface
seems to contradict.
One is always glad to get back to
cosmopolitan Los Angeles, which is
lust like any other town." except
that there is never any real winter.
And this is just what is misleading.
Many people think they can come and
transgress all the rules in regard to
contracting colds that they have care
fully observed elsewhere. The fact is,
California cold is a serious matter.
1t is easy to acquire and hard to break.
This accounts for the many fatal cases
of pneumonia among eastern visitors.
Another practical consideration. Too
many people are stranded here. No
person should come to California with
out calculating the cost, and, as some
say, 'be sure and bring a return ticket"
There are always n few more places
one wishes to visit. Those who come
to stay may find plenty of work for
the muscles. Carpenters and painters
receive $3.50 per day. Manual labor is
at premium. But to the man who de-
sires clerkship or "some easy way
of making living" the countryoffers
few inducements. Los Angeles is
crowded with men who want to make
money while keeping their hands white.
Many find mere existing here pleas
ure. The parks are beautiful. Winter
is the season for flowers. Since the
winter rains began. everything has
started afresh and the whole country
seems to be dressed in the advanced
styles of spring. The poinsettias with
their flaming red christmas flowers"
hold chief sway at present and share
with the old missions chief honors as
subjects for painting and decoration as
shown among the souvenir wares in the
stores. While people who visit this
city are wildly conscious of its beau
ties, few realize that it is fast become
ing great manufacturing center,
petroleum furnishing the fuel which
IN earlier years was lacking. So there
is great deal besides climate in Los
Angeles.
But a person should never come here
to live without first making a trial.

a good price during the winter season.
The better class of buildings have been
comfortably filed all summer. In
family hotels, the prices for perma-
nent dodgers has not greatly increased,
while room that costs a regular oc-
cupant but SIC or SIS per month, if
by chance vacated now. may be readily

Of course, there are rooms that may
be had for less, but they are, as rule,
undesirable, while person may find
plenty as much better as he chooses
to pay for.
So many conflicting stories are told
regarding the country that it is hard
for one who has never visited the
Pacific coast to reconcile them, but
facts remain, however, to prove that
they are, as rule, true. Yet the
tendency is.to overdraw things and to
make them appear fury as good as
they are. To-day, one walks north on
Broadway, one of our best business
streets, and it certainly does not seem
