State.
| Some two weeks ago Mr. Emanuel
| Kaufman accompanied by his wife
| four children, and his wife's mother
left for California to spend the re-
mainder of the winter. While i'll San
Francisco they were the guests OF
Mr.. William Kaufman and of Mr.
Dernham, formerly of Moscow and
now the owners of the Emporium, the
| largest store in San Francisco.
| That the entire party is having de-
| lightful time and realizing to the full-
est measure every expectation OF plea
sure is evidenced by letter received
yesterday by Mrs. Kaufmann's sister,
Mrs. H. w. Clark. Mrs. Clark has
kindly permitted the Star-Mirror to
quote freely the passages which VIII
be of especial interest to our readers.
Mr.. Kaufman writes.
THE others do not know when they
will have time to write, so they dele
gated to me the pleasant duty of tell
ing you of our trip thus far We lett
Moscow on the fifth, as you know, ana
arrived in Portland on the morning oil
the 9Th, where we put i'll a dlsmai'
rainy day in shopping-an agreeable
but not profitable undertaking. Bro
ther William had previously. written
me to notify him by telegraph from
Portland our plans of leaving ana ar
irving, as he had planned leaving
with dear Sister Bertha (his wife) for
the south So we did telegraph. What
was our surprise to receive at Duns-
muir, on the train, wire from MN 10
this effect, Upon your arrival you VIII
be met at the depot by Edith's auto
mobile Come direct to the st. Fran
els. We leave at A p. m. You are to
take our apartments"
Well, that looked good to us. You
should have seen our reception. we
arrived at eight in the morning on
Thursday. an early hour for these
good folks, but we were met by two
and whisked away to the
st. Francis in a jiffy. All were SIN
cerelv glad to see us. A temporary
suite of rooms had been provided until
William vacated his at four O'Clock.
The visit from Thursday to Monday
morning (when we again left) was
lust a series of splendid auto rides on
both sides of San Francisco bay, park,
and CITY. ocean views, sumptuous
meals in palatial hotels and magniil-
cent homes, every one so cordial ana
loving. They showered us with kind
lesses on every hand, fruit ana
lowers, candies and books, toys ana
sames-so much so that we had TO
borrow an extra trunk to take away
,ur additional belongings.
Williams apartments are large anu
inely furnished, having two baths
wo lavatories, two bed rooms, DIN
ng room and parlor. To give you
IN idea, | think he pays S4Oo per
month for them. They would rent
or forty dollars day.
Our time was so full that we did /
of do one half we had planned In
act we were kept on the move all the
ime.
All good things have an end, so on
Ionday at a. m. we left fof San
4 Barbara. We expected to stop there
Dr. a while, but after spending a day
lere. we decided to come on here 20
ong Beach. We stayed all night i'll
os Angeles. We are pleased with ,
ong Beach, a beautiful little city, a
Iagnificent beach, lovely streets, and Z,
ttractfve California houses-quiet, !,
rderly and clean.
We found a beautiful new furnished
)use in a fine neighborhood, palms
agnolias, roses. figs, oranges, and
ape fruit trees in our yard, with a
lrage, but no automobile, all kinds of
,wers, sun-porch at the back, and ;.
