soon to be extended and the vast i'm
provements and great number of sales
made recently, has attracted consider
able attention. This is the district
along Main street, Moneta avenue and
Figueroa street, from Forty-ninth to
nue., where the Mccarthy company is
buying and operating. This company
has purchased several large tracts in
that section of the city recently and
and curbings, oiled streets and trees.
Buildings are to be erected and other
improvements made. The company is
meeting with success in the sale of
property already placed upon the mar
ket-the Mccarthy company's subdi-
vision of the Main street and Moneta
avenue tract and the other just made
ready for the market The Mccarthy
company's subdivision of the Moneta
avenue and Figueroa street tract is a
subdivision of the Slauson property.
The land is a sandy loan and al
though apparently level has a very
gentle slope toward the southwest suf-
ticient for perfect drainage.
The Moneta avenue care line is to
be the finest equipped OF all the Hunt
ington lines, although the Maple car
line runs but one short block from the
Main street line.

Banquet of the 10th Century Club,

A more magnificent affair has not
been given by this Club thsn the
banquet of Friday night, November
oath, at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. r..
M. Quarles.
The entrance hall, reception and
club rooms were made perfection in
q decorative scheme of the golden
sunset color, intermingled with a
hazy white. These decorations, to-
gether with the stately palms, made
a perfect dream of natures scenes;
and in an alcove, where golden hues
predominated, was made the dis
tinetive place where stood theorator
of the occasion, Mr.. r. e. Wilbourn,
who made a most brilliant and
graceful address on literary works.
At the conclusoR ef this deeply
appreciated talk, awaiting in Ae
banquet hall was a b~anquet-a feast
of reason and flow of soul, in excel
lent toasts.
InFee hours were sPeilo atouhd
this banquet board, DER which ca
bles ofwhite and yellow tulle caught
with the sun-bufst rose reached to
the four corners of the table, while
aepyramid of white and yellow
chrys&ntLeDulas marked the centre
decoration of the table, which was
ovexspsead with a cover of merican
hand-work over yellow damask.
During three hours OF wit and elo-
quence galore, a joyous string band
waited forth sounds Of sweetest mu-
sic, which echoed and re-echQed
through the rooms.
