LONG BEACH

The contract for the new three-story
brick building which the Bixbys will
construct at the corner of First street
and Pacific avenue was awarded last
week to Alpeter, Hall e. Alpeter of Los
Angeles. The building has been planned
along the lines of the present Bixby
building at Ocean and Pacific avenues.
A department store will occupy the
lower floor.
The United Syndicates company re-
port increased activity in the lands
northwest of town as the result of the
announcement that the Llewellyn Iron
works is comparative certainty for
Long Beach. The syndicate which this
company has been making on a forty
acre tract at state street and Daisy
avenue is almost completed.
Buffers & Paul report that practi =
cally all the lots In tract No. 1 of the
Inner Harbor tracts have been sold and
that only few remain on the market.
Improvements will soon be started on
the second or No. tract. and when
completed this property will be offered
for sale. This tract will be paralleled
by the Pacific Electric.
The magic progress being made in
the inner harbor work is attracting the
notice of big corporations all over the
country and the prices on this property
In that immediate neighborhood will
soon soar sky high, judging from all
prospects.
The Long Beach Boulevard tract is
an opportunity for profitable invest
ment that is now presented by the
Slack-Wall company of IL Locust
avenue. The activity along the vIr-
tually decided route of the Pacific
boulevard connecting Los Angeles and
Long Beach has attracted widespread
attention. Winding driveways and vast
reclamation schemes are to be carried
out in the vicinity of the boulevard
and the property will, some prophesy,
be the most desirable of any about the
city. The principal streets of Long
Beach now run through this Boulevard
tract.

SING PER0SpS MASS TODAY

Perosis mass will be sung at the
Sacred Heart church at the 10 O'Clock
mass this morning. Bishop Conaty will
be at the church and 1t is in honor of
his visit that the choir will render this
mass, which was first sung on Easter
morning.
This mass is recent production of
Lorenzo Perosi, priest whose views
on music proper for the church services
and whose compositions have both
found such favor with the pope, Plus
X Perosi is the perpetual director of
the Sistine choir and it is understood
that more than any other man he is
influential in directing the policy of the
church in musical matters.
This mass was sung by the Sacred
Heart choir for the first time west of
New York. 1t represents all that is
latest in the music of the church. The
music was obtained from Europe es-
pecially by Rev. Father McAuliffe, rec
tor of the church.
The mass will be sung under the di-
rectiou of Miss Mary L. O'Donoughue.

An inactive market was experienced
by realty dealers in general during the

ported In the Sierra Vista, Westgate and
Green Acre tracts.

however, although numerous inquiries
for this class of investment are re-
ported.

to cost $4275, will be two stories in

bined capacity Of the mills contlolei by the powder
trust is not sufficient to provide supply ample for
prolonged war.
The complaint asserts that the powder mills Of
the country, working for month with their present
capacity, would scarcely be able to make as much
ammunition as would be used in a naval battle last
ing only few hours. While General CrOzier
chief of ordnance Of the army, inclines to regard
this as an exaggeration he has nevertheless inform
ed the House committee on appropriations that the
facilities for the manufacture Of powder are not mp
to what they before the Civil War, because at
that time powder was made Of charcoal, sulphur and
nitre, whereas, the powder Of the present is made
OF cotton, nitric acid, ether and alcohol In view
OF this fact, and with the knowledge that the pow
der manufacturers have no intention OF enlarging
their facilities, General CrOzier and Rear Admiral
Mason chief Of the bureau Of ordnance Of the Navy
Department, are both buying large reserve supplies
Of ammunition.
