whra Lobster Turns Red.
Persons living at remote distance
from the natural home OF the lobster
think that red is the original color Of
that species Of crustacean. The natu.
raj hue. however. Is green. the beauti-
full bright brick color being the result
OF boiling 10 which such creatures are
subjected. Two explanations for this
change In color are given. either Of
which appears to be tenable: Their
shells contain a large per cent Of iron,
and the boiling process oxldlzes that
mineral. the change being almost ex.
actly the same as that brought about
In burning n brick. Such change In
the color Of a Holsters shell can be
brought about by the suns action. but

n rule. however. the suns bleaching
influence consumes the oxide almost as
fast as II Is formed, leaving the shell
pure white.
The second explanation Is that the

blue pigment IN dissolved. leaving the
red 20 color the creatures shell.

Lankershim Lot Is Leased for Fifty
Years to the North American
Trust company-Plans for
2so offices

one of the big things in the building
line for the new year is the early erec-
ton of a modern eight-story brick and
steel office structure on the southeast
corner of Main and Fourth streets for
the North American Trust company, Of
which Philip l.. Wilson is president and
J. A. Collins vice president.
The building will be 1OSx155 feet in
extreme dimensions and will contain
storerooms on the ground floor and $50
office rooms on the upper floors, all
fitted up in fine style.
The North American Trust company
has secured lease on the lot, which
is the property of J. B. Lankershim, for
a period of fifty years. The estimated
cost of the proposed Improvement is
100000.
Twenty years ago the lot on which
the eight-story building will stand was
sold to Mr. Lankershim for $4,000. 1t
ia now valued at about $250,000.
Preliminary plans for the building
have been completed, and while these
call for suites and offices, it is said
that sumptuous bachelor apartments
will be provided ON the upper floors.
1t is also said that leading national
bank may occupy one of the ground
floor offices and that the Trust COM
pany will occupy tt corner room of
Fourth and Main streets.
All that is modern in design and con-
struction will be employed and the ex-
perience gained in building will be
drawn upon.

One of the prettiest places at Alta

Pratt, has bought "Sunnycroft," the
home of Paul Hutchinson; considera-
tion, $4,000. Mr.. Goodridge was until
recently the owner of the "Spalding,"
and will now make Sunnycroft his
home.
The property consists of seven and
one-half acres, running from Calaveras
street to Alameda street, on the east
side of Santa Clara avenue, thus 'front.'
ing several hundred feet on three good
streets. The house was built a few
years ago by Thaddeus Lowe and the
grounds were planted at that time, and
hence have fine large trees of almost
every variety with beautiful drives and
walks, large lawns, flower beds and
handsome shrubbery, making it a place
of unusual beauty. About five acres,
the part not taken up by the residence
and ornamental planting, are set to fine
varieties of table grapes. There is
magnificent view from the veranda and
one that can never be obstructed. This
is one feature that Altadenans should
take care to preserve. Some of the AL
tadena residents have allowed the trees
and shrubbery to grow to such a height
that it has obstructed not only their
own view but that of their neighbors.
