SAN FRANCISCO, July 23.-The re-
construction of San Francisco is pro-
ceeding with daily increasing rapidity.
Although most of the buildings being
erected in the downtown district are in
tended to be merely temporary struc-
lures many of them are well built and
expersvely finished. The ST. Francis

though built of wood its interior fittings
Will compare favorably with thoCe of
the old caravansary.
Tho cafe and grill In the former hotel
have been reopened and the entire
building will soon be ready for oc-
cupancy.
The California promotion committee,
urged to fresh exertions by the disaster,
has finished an attractive home. also in
Union square. 1t was thrown open to-
day with Consi, cradle ceremony, ad-
dresses being made by Governor Par

BIDS COME IN TOO SLOWLY
Crown City Postoffice Seems Likely

PASADENA, July 23.-Postmaster ].

Thus far not a single bona fide bid
has been received but Postmaster
Wood is practically certain that two
or three will be in his hands at the
proper time. One of these is likely to
be the Green street site referred to a
couple of days ago in The Herald. An
other is the North Raymond avenue

company's building 1t is reported that

able. At any rate the postoffice is
pretty certain from present indications
to take a step toward the eastward. the

no interest in the matter.

SAYS ANGELE:NOS
ARE FORTUNATE
Gives Graphic Description of How He
Feels After a Nights Wres-
tling With Old General
Humidity

Los Angeles people have reason to
congratulate themselves these days
that they are not residing on the At
lantic coast or an the northern, east
ern or middle states.
Stories come daily from all parts of
the country telling of the suffering
from the heat, while favored Angelo
nos go about in comparatively COM
fort, enjoying the infalible sea breeze
from the Pacific
The lack of humidity is another thing
the Southern Californian has every
reason to be thankful for This is
brought forcibly to mind by a letter
written by Secretary Frank Virgins of
the Los Angeles Chamber of Com
merce, who is in charge of the Los An
geles exhibit at Atlantic City, n. J.,
Philadelphia's boasted breathing place
at the seashore. He writes:
Editor Herald: This is to acknoW-
ledge the receipt of The Herald, which
has arrived regularly since we started.
We want to thank you for this cour-
tesy. One copy we file daily in the
Atlantic City library, where it is read
regularly, not only by people inter
ested in California, but by people who
want to be- Those we keep on file in
cur exhibit are eagerly sought after by
the Los Angeles people who visit us.
my letter to the Chamber, the little
exhibit installed here is proving a
great card in the exhibition line and
the interest daily increases not only
in the section that we particularly rep
resent but the whole southern part of
California, and we can't advertise our
section without advertising the whole
state.
The weather at the present time is
. lit,
You go to bed feeling completely worn
our and get up in the morning feeling
worse You pull the sheets off you in
the morning like pulling a postage
stamp off letter. The inside of your
shoes feels like a banana peel and your
clothes resemble a bathing suit after
just emerging from the water. Why,
our peanuts that we used for decora-
tion are growing whiskers in conse-
quenoe of the dampness. The photo
graphs in the panels are warping and
the fish show signs of returning to life
in consequence of the dampness of the
atmosphere.
I'VE look for an improvement after
August /. The crowd is not as large
as in former years, but they are suf-
ficient to keep our little exhibit crowded
daily. Indications point to good west
ward travel this fall if physical con-
ditions don't change. There is very
little comment on the recent disaster
at San Francisco. 1t is seldom brought
up except through sympathy, which is
to us very gratifying, as we thought
we would have to combat the errone-
GUS report spread broadcast during the
excitement.
1--WE are all well. satisfied with our
venture, and hope to be able to return
in the early autumn with evidence suf-
fieient to guarantee the continuance OF
