VENICE OF AMERICA

"Venice of America is fourteen miles
from Los Angeles.
The most unique Beach resort on
the Pacific coast.
Among it's MANI attractions is the
largest dance pavilion in the world, the
largest skating rink in the world and
the largest and finest bath house and
plunge on the Pacific coast. Open all
the time.
one Of the advantages that Venice
has over resorts is the fact that one
can secure at a most moderate cost,
beautiful and attractive villas and
bungalows ranging from seventeen
dollars and a half to thirty-five dol
lars a month, which includes light,
water and laundry. These villas are
situated on the Venice canals, con-
veniently near to the ocean.
Venice is also well supplied with
first-class restaurants at popular pric-
es and every thing that goes to make
up for high class Seaside resort
Those who wish to bring teams, will
find first class stable accommodations
at moderate prices.
Perhaps one of the greatest attrac-
tons of Venice is it's equitable eli
mate. From May until November, the
thermometer hardly varies.
ITO those who wish to secure
pleasant summer vacation for moderate
costs, Venice of America certainly
should be it.

Communication of the sentence was
asked on he ground that Port Ar
thur, beset by overwhelming forces,
defended itself under Gen. Stoessels S
leadership with unexampled stub
borness and filled the world with as
tonishment at the heroic courage
of its garrison; that several assaults
had been repulsed with tremendous
losses on the part of the enemy;
that Gen. Stoessel throughout the
siege had maintained the heroic
courage of the defenders, and, final
ly, that he had taken energetic part
in three campaigns"
Before the sentence was read
measures were taken to prevent a
demonstration in favor of General
Stoessel by number of the younger
officers and witnesses who were pres
ent. Ties, latter sent a dispatch to
the empress saying that they would
humbly bear testimony that General
Stoessel was the soul of defense of
Port Arthur; that he had always en-
couraged and put heart into the gar
rison, and that in case of war they
would wish to serve again under
such hero. They asked the empress
graciously to bespeak from the en-
peror full pardon.
There was a dramatic moment af-
ter the reading OF the sentence,
when detachment of soldiers filed
into the hall. The spectators. think
ing that they were about to seize
Gen. Stoessel, displayed great excite

merely a guard for the dispersal of

led by his son, was the object of
