other day, The rain did follow us, how
ever, until We started from raso Rchlcs
on last Friday morning, showcriug un'
told wealth on the CaliioNians.
"The delegation has been generously
entertained here by the Chamber a
Commerce Of the City OF the Angels,
which organization, by the way, has .
membership of 5000. each of whom pays
the sum OF Sl0o each and every month,
and all hands in good standing, The
entertainment began on Saturday las,
and will continue until Sunday. |,
consists OF excursions over all the prin'
cipal routes OF interest hereabout. and
to all the famous beaches, including
Catalina Island, San Diego, Pasadena,
Mount Lowe. the Ostrich Farm, the
great Baldwin ranch, and the biggest
Of the orange and walnut groves in the
country. Many Of these ar absolutely
free. with FREE lunches, as at Venice,
free dinner at Greens, in Pasadena, the
lnest place in this country, etc. Other
trips were furnished at special rates.
"The beautiful oof'garden of palms
and ferns on top Of the new Hotel Green
at Pasadena was thrown open for the
especial enjoyment Of the delegations
and the Hotel Raymond served mag
nifecnt and refreshing lunch TO our
hungry host. Each trip out of the city
was accompanied by a committee OF
pleasant people from the Chamber OF
Commerce, so nothing was lost for want
of suggestion and explanation as we
journeyed.
"The San Diego trip begins this
morning with hy-over until Sunday.
The delegation is diminishing some
what, as some Of the members have
been compelled to leave on business
engagements. for home, and elsewhere.
AT Pasadena inquired for some
Oregon apples and was told that none
had been on that market this year, and
that importations thereof had been
made from other districts An inquiry
made in Los Angeles for some Warren.

that there were none there, but that
there were plenty Of TIaiferty's pack,
from Gray's Harbor.
"we have seen large groves OF or
anges, but no piekers yet. Navels are
not yet generally ripe and will not be
until February and March. seedless
win ripen in April and the Valencias
later. Oranges that are sent out before
these dates are not ripe, in this nor any
other market, though they may ripen'
even on the market. The earliest or
anges come from the interior valleys
further north.
"The other great crop here is tour
ists', and the many ways and things
devised to attract him, and derive
profit from him, cannot be enumerated
in one short letter like this.
"The famous Raymond Is open here
for only three months in the year and
the Green for six months, so the re-
ceipts must be immense in those shor'
seasons, TO yi]d the notabls profits
that are claimed for these ho-telries.

GIN case the seller of the diamonds was
Damant. And the most remarkable
thing about il was that Damant wa
the late head clerk In the Kimberley
detective department. But as the de
partment in the course Of its duties
naturally acquires considerable qnan
tity Of stones which il subsequently
disposes of, it might never have occur
red 10 a buyer that the chief clerk was
selling otherwise than in the ordinary
course OF departmental routine.
The main question at the trial wa'
whether McGin knew that Damant was
dealing in Illicit diamonds acquired fo'
Illicit purposes, IL was admitted by
the accused that transactions sggregat'
ing large sums OF money were omitted
from the register. which he had ccrti'
fed to be correct,
The jury, after protracted hearing
OF the evidence brought in verdict OF
mot guilty" ON all of the l4I counts
of the charge
Then il was that a remarkable scene
occurred in court. Sir John Buchanan
the Judge trying the case, had distinctly
summed up against McGill and he ex'
pressed his dissent at the verdict in the
strongest possible terms.
Officer Aided the Thieves.
But the case did result in bringing
to light many remarkable facts in con-
nection with the working Of the !. ID. b
act. Damant seems to have practically
used the whole machinery Of his secret
service not to stamp out the trade in
illicit diamond buying, but to eneoor'
age it for the purpose of carrying on
private traffic on his own account,
According to statement made by
Colonel Harris, a DE Beers director. in
the course of the trial, DE Beers loses
about 100000 in stolen stones every
month. This is chiefly due to the opera
tions of skilful gang with cleverly laid
plans who get the diamonds out of the
country by way of Rhodesia and Natal
to Europe. The gang is understood to
include women who have the reputa'
tion Of experts at this type Of robbery
So great has been the skill Of these
women that not woman has been de-
tected in connection with this partieu'
lar and peculiar form of crime for a
great many years.
