NOVEL CURE FOR COLDS.
Healing Medication That is Bseathed., Civ
inf Quick Relief.

The fact that many people right in
Grand Rapids cough and hawk and
shuttle for days and weeks after they
have been treating cold with the
usual stomach dosing, shows how
valueless are the ordinary cough and
cold cures.
The right way to cure cold IN the
head, or a cough and irritation in the
bronchial tubes, is by breathing Hy-
omei's medicated air from the neat
pocket inhaler that comes with every
outfit. Take few breaths 10 this way,
and immediate relief will be noted. The
medication goes right to the SpOL
where the disease germs are and rem
ders them harmless.

MINISTER DIES At
EVENING MEAL
Pastor of Friends Church Quietly
Meets Death Immediately After
Pronouncine a Blessing
at the Table

Just as he pronounced the last words
of thanks to the Heavenly Father whom
he had served so long in the ministry
of the Friends church, Rev. Amos San
ders, aged 65, pastor of the Los An
geles Friends church, bowed his head
as If in meditation after closing the
blessing preceding the evening meal
yesterday, and those about him saw his
body gently incline toward the table.
When picked up he was dead.
Rev. Mr.. Sanders came to California
nine months ago from Brooklyn, N. Y,
for his health and had seemed to be
gaining He was the guest of Mr. and
Mrs. Smiley at their apartments in the
st. Regis hotel, where he passed away
so suddenly last night
1t had long been an expressed desire
of the aged clergyman that he die II
harness." and that he should never BE-
compelled to give up his ministerial
work, and his wish was gratified
He attended the prayer meeting last
Wednesday night and seemed to be in
better health than usual yesterday
morning and had planned his sermon
for tomorrow and had announced as his
topic, "Out of the Old Into the New,
From the Lower to the Higher Life,
little dreaming that it would typify his
earthly career.
Since coming here Rev. Mr. Sanders
had become very popular and was uni
versally liked in the church, and his
sudden death will come as a great
shock to Friends throughout Southern
California.
Rev. Mr.. Sanders leaves one son, who
is q physician of Brooklyn, N. Y, and
arrangements for the funeral await
word from this son. Rev. Mr.. Sanders
was the brother-in-law of Rev. Thomas
Armstrong of Whittier, evangelistic
superintendent of the California Yearly
Meeting of Friends.
The body is at the undertaking estab-
lishment of Breese Bros, where it will
remain until word is received from DR..
Sanders.

said George Lem yesterday. George
Lem Is the most honoretd and respect
ed merchant of Chinatown and has an
enviable standing even among white
business men. "These people do not
know what is happening to them. Sup
posing two or three white women were
in China and could not speak or un-
derstand the language and knew moth
ing Of the customs of the country. Sup
posing a crowd of Chinese women, with
a crowd of Chinese men, should swoop
down upon them and tear their babies
from their arms and take them away.
Would there be trouble? Well, 1 guess
there would. Now these mothers are
nearly wild. have known them for
ten years or more. They are both mar
ried and no suspicion has ever been
breathed against them. I have the
collection of the rents of the house
wherein they live and know that they
were forced to live there because there
was no other available place.
"a Chinese baby to its mother Is just
as dear as a white one to its mother
and when these Chinese women see
their babies put behind iron bars the
terrors of the unknown rack their very
souls. If they could comprehend that
this affair Will probably be settled in a
fair, honest manner, according to the
law it would not be so bad but they
cannot. They are not educated to such
an understanding and this to them is
worse than any of the old tortures
which are written about in your coun-
try as happening many years ago and
which are said to have been perpe-
trated by barbarians."
George Lem Is putting up a desperate
fight on behalf of his people and he
has scores of Chinese who are ready
with money and other ways to aid him.
His opinion of the good character
of the Chinese women has already gone
into the evidence and he will repeat
it on the witness stand Tuesday and
his word has never yet been questioned
by anyone.

land holdings in the vicinity. The sta

of the general still lives on the home
ranch.
The carnation gardens are but short
distance from the Los Angeles & Re-
dondo railway station. They cover
fourteen acres, and from 5000 to 1000
blossoms are shipped every day to Los
Angeles and other markets. At the
time of President McKinley's visit 10
the Los Angeles Fiesta 10000 white car
nations were supplied for the decora-
tions Of the presidential carriage.
Reward Is Certain
With that great captain of industry,
Mr.. Huntington, owner of the property,
in general charge, and with L. r.
Garnsey, the president, in direct charge
of the operations of the railway, as
sisted by c. H. Burnett as general man
ager and w. T. Maddox as superinten-
dent, the Los Angeles & Redondo Rail-
road company property has become one
of the most valuable lines for the ac-
commodation of the public in Southern
California. Vast interests are connected
with the company in Los Angeles along
the line to the coast and at Redondo,
and those who own property adjacent
to the line and have made investments
in the suburbs or on the coast will reap
quick and most gratifying returns.
To no other man or body of men is
the phenomenal advancement of Los
Angeles and Southern California due
than to that great captain of industry,
Henry e. Huntington. There is time
in the affairs of the cities as we'll as
men where the upward or downward
move means success or failure. The
time had come to Los Angeles and the
cities tributary to it to strike out on
the flood tide. 1t means courage and
inspiration. These came with the man
of the hour, Mr. Huntington.
A railroad man by training and in
stinct, Mr.. Huntington at once set TO
work making the transportation facil-
tiles of the city the precursor Of the
proper transit lines for the metropolis
of the southwest. The best was none
too good for the people who he would
serve. With civic helpfulness and
commercialism combined great trans
formation took place. Electric lines in
all directions opened up new sections
within the city limits as well as in the
great surrounding country, and his life
work, that of assisting in making Los
Angeles the largest and most important
city on the Pacific coast, will not be
complete until his achievement has
been accomplished.

CHARMING SPOT

WELL APPLIED
Many Favorable Conditions Make This
Seaside Resort One of the
Most Popular on the
Coast

1t has been said OF Southern Cali
fornia that every stone has a story,
and it would be difficult to find in
any part of the state a spot so full
of romantic charm as Redondo-by-the-
sea, often and rightly called the Queen
of the Pacific.
Charming scenery sweeping views of
the ocean, the famous carnation beds,
moonstone beach and numerous other
wonders, all within an hours ride of
Second and Broadway, Los Angeles,
make this seaside resort one of the
most popular on the Pacific coast.
There is a strange mingling of the
old and the new, where the present
encroaches upon the past, in the long
stretch of beautiful country between
this inland city and the sea.
In days long ago the acres were
owned by some of the best. Spanish
families of the state In their peace

valleys. Broad stretches of green
grass were all that was visible to the
eye for miles in any direction.
