"Much has appeared in print regard
inc the country in southern Nevada
that is tributary to Los Angeles and
much has been said OF the riches and
the wonderful future in store for the
sections that remain to be developed,
said r. A. McWilliams yesterday, who
is secretary and treasurer of the Las
Vegas Townsite company, and who has
lust returned from that portion of Ne
yada after critical examination of the
country.
"At the present time 1t seems to me
that Los Angeles is not getting her
share of the business of Las Vegas"
Mr.. McWillams continued, lowing to
the better shipping facilities from Salt
Lake City, but an Improvement is
looked for at an early date, when the
railroad is opened for business from
this end. Los Angeles wholesalers
should take the matter up and urge
better transportation for freight as well
as for passengers. An automobile line
is to be started Immediately from Las
Vegas to Bullfrog. Three of the larg-
est autos ever put into service leave
Los Angeles Monday (tomorrow) to go
direct to Las Vegas and will make daily
trips to and from Bullfrog and possibly
on to Goldfield. This will greatly fa-
cilitate the rapid development of the
country
THE wonderful richness of that
country is not. appreciated by the av-
erage individual" says Mr.. McWill-
Jams. "There have been wonderful
strikes made in the camps already es-
tablished, but ii is believed that still
greater strikes await the hardy pros
pector in the many mountain ranges,
AS to the climate, it is simply superb,
and water is plentiful and perfectly
pure throughout the Las Vegas valley.
The new town ON the west side of the
track is SURPRISING our expectations,

in their particular lines and all are
doing good business"

BOARD Of APPEALS
FOR Los ANGELES
LOCAL ARCHITECTS SUGGEST
IMPORTANT AMENDMENT
FOR NEW BUILDING ORDINANCE
All Disputes That May Arise Can Be
Adjusted on Plan Proposed by
A. F. Rosenhelm-cash for
Art Temple
FOR NEW BUILDING ORDINANCE

The Los Angeles architects, mem bers
of the Southern California chapter OF
the American Institute of Architects
take lively interest in the new build
ing ordinance passed by the city coun-
ell that takes effect May 1.
The regular dinner of the chapte
was held Thursday night in the nook
at the Cafe Bristol Seated at the
table were d. Hudson, O. Morgan,
John Parkinson, j. w. Krause, r. B.
Young, w. A. o. Munsell, F. G. Brown,
j. w. Krempel, C. H. Brown. b. j.
Reeve, Theodore A. SEisen, j. Lee Bur-
ton, F. Parmentier, A. F. Rosenh elm,
John c. Austin, Fred Heinlein. c. f.
Whittlesey, Fl. C. Barrow, W. J..
Bleisner, j. j. Backus, superintendent
OF public buildings. A. A. Bennett and
Fl. w. Morrow, representing residence
interests.
No Discretion for superintende
President Rosenheim occupied the
chair and Fernand Parmentier was the
secretary. The conference was for an
interchange of views as to some of
the provisions of the ordinance as ap-
piled to large buildings and the con-
struction of opera houses. Mr.. Nor
row spoke at some length OH the i'm
portance to giving attention i'm plan
ming large buildings to the prevention
of fires. He said that the architects
OF Los Angeles had great future be-
fore them in designing massive build
ings that would be monuments to their
genius.
John c. Austin, John Parkinson,
Theo, E. Eisen, f. ID. Hudson, o. Nor
gan, Julius Krause, c. f. Whittlesey,
j. W. Krempel and r. b. Young dis
cussed various provisions OF the or
dinance.
The new ordinance is drawn without
giving the superintendent of buildings
any discretionary powers. Mr. Young
thought that the superintendent should
have some leeway in the work of re-
pairs and additions. and he offered
a motion to that effect. Mr. Eisen said
1t would be farcical TO recommend such
an amendment, for il the superinte
ent had such power the ordinance
Los Angeles herald., 1905-04-23

would have no force, and no architect
would know what to do, assuming
that discretionary power would apply
to new buildings.
Mr. Hudson favored limited discre-
tionary power, as he did not see how
Improvements could be carried for
ward promptly if the superintendent
is not permitted to exercise his judg-
ment in many cases that would arise.
The motion of Mr.. Young was de-
feated.
Board of Appeals
Mr. Rosenheim called attention to the
fact that the building ordinance at st.
the appointment of a board of appeals,
composed of three members, an ar
Chitect, a contractor and an insurance
man, on salary, appointed by the
mayor and confirmed by the council.
This board hears all complaints of
architects, builders and owners, in
cases where disputes arise, and it is
the duty of the board to adjust all
disputes. Mr.. Rosenhem suggested
that the same plan be adopted by Los
Angeles and that it be recommended
that the ordinance be amended by the
introduction of the board of appeals
section. The suggestion, after general
discussion, took the form of a motion
and it was adopted.
Opera Houses and Floors
Other points discussed were the pro-
visions for the testing of hoers in opera
houses asbestos curtains and heating
appliances beneath the stage of audi
toriums of opera houses. The ordinance
provides that no furnaces shall be
placed under certain parts of an opera
house. and that carpenter shops and
dressing rooms shall not be constructed
in Easements of opera houses. Many
of the architects thought these restric-
tons unjust to the property owners
who would necessarily have to sur
render valuable Easements that would
bring big returns in rentals 1t was
that the furnaces and other
divisions could be constructed so that
there would be no danger from fires.
The rooms could he made fire-proof.
Resides it was contended that no one
had ever heard of a fire in an opera
house starting in the basement. Fires
start on the stage where so
much infammable material is used
viii Aid Art Temple
The proposed science and art temple |
for Los Angeles, to cost about $3.50, 900, |
was suggested. The proposition was
received with great favor, Mr.. Rosen-
helm said he would give $1,000 for the !
enterprise. Mr., Parkinson offered TO
give $1,000 if 100000 is subscribed for
the building, and Octavius Morgan said |
ne would give $1,000. Mrs. Henry Will !
son Hart has given $1,000 for the build
ng and the RusSin Art club $500. Ar
,hitects Rosenheim. Parkinson and |
Morgan were named as committee to |
,onfer with other organizations inter-
ested in the success of the enterprise.

Dvnauitad the Well.

The famous Ressie Street artisan
well, recently com pleted by the Crooks
ton Waterworks Power and Light
company, was dynamited, and it is
feared, was completely wrecked,
though the damage cannot be stated
definitely.
The well was 2l5 feet deep and for a
distance of eighty feet a circular brick
curling, eight feet in diamater had
been built The pump was installed
at the bottom of the curbing, and the
well was ready for operation. 1t was
sunk to give Crookston a pure water
supply. and was to have been pumped
into the city mains in place of the river
water.
The outrage has caused a tremendous
sensation and all the civil machinery
has been started to land the misereant.

A Dummy Wrist.

The cleverest trick that ever has
been played on the Duluth authorities
was executed by a member of the
chain gang at Duluth named William
Goodman. When the gang was being
escorted to the stone yard Goodwin
suddenly broke and ran. The deputy
in charge scarcely could believe his
eyes, for the prisoner all were hand
cuffed in pairs. The deputy assumed
that Goodman has broken the steel
bracelet. Goodman was captured af-
ter chase covering half a mile, and
then an investigation was made of
how he got away. Then it was discov-
cred that Goodman had cleverly duped
the deputy. He had not been hand
cuffed at all Instead of presenting
his own wrist to be manacled, he off
cred a dummy wrist with glove
stuffed with paper on the end of it,
while his own hand was pulled up into
the sleeve of his coat.
