BROADWAY MARKET. Tlie Opening Ceremonies of the Establishment. A Very Large Number of Peo ple in Attendance. A Description of the Building-—Some Of Its Occupants. Speeches Made by Prominent Citizens on the Occasion—The Reception and Ball Afterwards. The opening of the Broadway market was celebrated last evening, and proved an event of unusual brilliance. It is ev ident that the people of the city appre ciate the important part which this new enterprise is to play in the development of the section, and they responded to the invitations which were sent out by appearing in large numbers, and in an enthusiastic frame of mind. There were about 3,000 people present at the cere monies, more in fact than could be ac commodated with chairs about the stand where the speaking was to take place. The front of the building on Broadway was thrown entirely open,and the sidewalk and even the street was thronged with visitors who had come to see the dedication of the structure. The members of the ladies' annex have been hard at work for the past week getting the building into shape for the occasion. The result of their labors showed in the walls decorated with leaves and flowers, the ceilings draped with flags and streamers, and in the tasteful arrangement of the rooms of the armory for the reception of those who wished to dance. The Market Building. The Broadway market is the work of one of the best known architects of the city, R. B. Young. It is one of the many monuments to his taste and skill which Los Angeles contains. Among them may be mentioned the Wilson block, the new Hammel & Denker building, which is now in process of con struction, and the Catholic orphan asylum in Boyle Heights. He is also the architect of the reform school build ing at Whittier. The Broadway market has a frontage of 192 feet on the west side of Broadway between Sjxth and Seventh. The height of the building is 69>0 feet. The depth of the southern por tion of the building is 144 feet, and the northern portion 90 feet, making a total ground area of 27,500 square feet. The lower floor is all in one great room, through which, at intervals, there are rows of large pillars. The ceiling is 18 feet high. The floor is laid with as phaltum, which will be always kept clean and cool. There are 87 large doois at the front, which can be thrown open an ns to leave passage way in and out for hundreds of people at once. Un der the floor there are a quantity of water, gas and waste pipes, for every stall is supplied with conveniences of this sort. There are accommodations lor 150 stalls. The upper floor of the building will be used as the armory for the seventh regiment of the National Guard. There is a drill hall 80x125 feet, with galleries around the walls for spectators ; there are company rooms, a billiard room and regimental and brigade headquarters. Every part of the building is supplied with the latest improvements, and it is built in the most solid and substantial fashion. Its Occupants. Although the building is just com pleted, its future tenants have already many of them moved in,and the success of the undertaking is assured. The Ameri can Fishing Company has a very desirable location in stalls No. 9to 17, near the center of the building. This company deal* m fish, game and poultry, whole sale and retail, making a specialty of shipping fish to all points in Southern California, Arizona and New Mexico. At its place in the Broadway market it will keep always on hand a large stock of the best fish in season, fresh from tlie water. A plentiful supply of fresh oysters is kept constantly on hand, and lobsters, crabs,shrimps and clams are re ceived daily. The telephone number of the establishment is 035. The managers have been in the fish and game business a number of years in this vicinity and thoroughly understand the methods of securing the best that there is to be had for their customers. Their stalls will be a favorite resort for house-keepers who are desirous of selecting from a good stock of fish, game and poultry. Stall No. 1 is occupied by the well known firm of Kern & Wieman, dealers in fruit. They keep a large stock of all the varieties of fruit that are in season, and make a specialty of family trade. They also give special attention to fruits for canning. This stall was open last evening. In this splendid emporium where all the agricultural products of the section are to be displayed for pur chase, Kern & Weiman nave the honor .to be the first to represent the chief in dustry of Southern California—the fruit. Prominent in the row of butcher stalls was that of W. S. Lynn, in number 8. Telephone 103 is located in this stall, and orders received over the wire will be delivered in all parts of the city free of charge. Mr. Lynn'deals in fresh and salt meats of all kinds, hams, bacon and choice lard. The branch of this market is at 1,214 West Washington street. A large refrigerator will be placed in the stall. The Opening Ceremony. At about 8 o'clock the speakers and a number of prominent citizens filed upon the platform. Among the visitors who were asked to take seats there were Gov ernor Torres, of Lower California, and S. P. Maslin, of the state board of exam iners. M. K. Higgins, the president of the evening, announced that the speeches would all be brief, owing to the fact that many of the audience were compelled to stand. He then introduced Frank P. Kelly, who, in the absence of Judge Fitzgerald, had been asked to speak on the chamber of commerce. Mr. Kellv said that it would be impos sible in a short space of time to do jus tice to so great a subject as the chamber of commerce. To this institution was due much of the present prosperity of this city and section. Today the chamber was the place where all visitors to Los Angeles could go and see what this country could produce. It had helped to bring California to the front It had sent out the California on wheels, which was now opening the eyes of tm whole nation to the grand possibilities and realities of this section. Mr. Higgins then introduced Major K. THE LOS ANGELES HERALD: TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 1, 1890. W. Jones, the president of the cham ber, to whom, he said, more than to any other one man the success of the cham ber was due. Major Jones said: I be lieve that the people of Los Angeles ap preciate the services of the chamber of commerce. The work of the chamber is not the result of the efforts of any one individual, but of public spirited able-minded broad-viewed citi zens who are members of it—the men who do itß committee work and attend its meetings, its secretaries from the beginning and the various officers. The people I believe appreciate that Los An geles could now hardly get along without this chamber. The fact of its usefulness ought to be inculcated to a larger extent than it is and the chamber should have a much larger membership. We have now 500 and the list should be doubled. I wish to pay a tribute to the ladies' an nex. The beauty and extent of the per manent exhibit is largely due to the efforts of this organization. To it is largely due also this opportunity to gather here tonight to talk of these matters. They have decorated this plain building in the way that you see. Their work deserves recognition and ap preciation. Charles E. Eedick was then intro duced to speak on the subject of '•Pub lic Improvements." He said: We are assembled in this magnificent hall of commerce to dedicate it to the purposes for which it was designed. It is a time for self-congratulation. We live in a country to which a man can come from the east with one lung and do more bus iness than he could there with two, and live to be so old that he cannot hear himself cough. And we are doing our best to improve and enhance those nat ural favors which we had at the start. Let us think of the time when this beau tiful mart is opened to the exchange of the products of the section. Then this crowning glory will be added to the list of public improvements. Mayor Hazard followed with a Short speech. He said: AYe are proud to night. A new epoch is marked tonight in the history of our city and country. The erection of this building is but one of the many factors that are engaged in developing the section. It is here that the products of this genial climate will find a ready sale to those who have cast their lot in this city. This market is a milestone in our progress, a monument to the courage and enterprise of its builders. The time was when we im ported the products of field and farm, but tonight we meet to dedicate a great market house, to be used for the sale of our own products. Col. J. J. Ayers, who followed, spoke on the subject of "The Ladies." He said: "Peace hath her victories no less re nowned than war." This is one of her greatest victories. Here you behold a building which has been set like a jewel in its fair surroundings to accomplish useful work in the distribution of our own products among the people. The projectors of it are entitled to the thanks of the people of this city. We have been told of the great works ac complished by the chamber of com merce, but I believe that that institution was lacking in some of the best elements of usefulness until the ladies' annex came to the rescue. We can readily un derstand that this beautiful market building is due not so much to Major Jones and Mr. Lindley as to their wives. AA'hat a wilderneso th!au.<uj.t wnni.i i.o if populated only by big, scrawny men. I lived here when there were no ladies in the country, and it was a - sorry time. AVith nothing tender "wnd endearing about us we were growing up a masculine set of fel lows. So, I say, all honor to the ladies. To them is due all praise for their good work. . Judge AY. 11. Clark was introduced by Mr. Higgins in a very humorous speech, and called upon to talk on a subject which he, as a bachelor, must know very little about—"The Ladies." The judge said he preferred to translate this into "The.AVomen," as the term was the older, and, to his mind, the more honor able, AVomen were coming forward in such a way in the institutions of learn ing of the country, and taking such a place in the front ranks of the profes sions, that it was a matter of national surprise that there should be a ladies' annex to the chamber of commerce. It might rather be expected that they should be members of the cham ber, active participants in its discussions and its work. The present arrange ment seemed to the speaker the best, however, as the annex sustained the re lation of a "helpmeet" to the chamber. This was the position in which the true admirer of the sex preferred to see them occupy. "When angels can become pea nut venders," said he, "and saints sellers of hides, and both still remain angels and saints, then we can expect to see women take part in the active busi ness affairs of life and still remain true women —but until that time we love to see them in homes and in the sacred fields of charitable work." Judge K. B. Carpenter was then in troduced, and made a few remarks, with which the meeting closed. The large audience then made their way to the hall above. Here the band of music which had earlier in the evening given a promenade concert, now began on dance music. A number of couples soon filled the floor, and a of dances was carried out. "it need not be stated that this was to those who participated one of the most enjoyable features of the evening. In an adjoining room the ladies of the annex served refreshments. BOYS' AID SOCIETY. Some Recent Gifts to the New Home. The Boys' Aid Society received a very handsome parlor organ as a gift from Colonel J. J. Ayers, also a cook stove for the home from Mrs. Hildreth, the stove being provided with a water back and necessary cooking utensils through the kindness of Mrs. Crandal. Thesociety proposes to give a free supper to the newsboys of the city tomorrow evening at the home, 229 South Main street. All newsboys wishing to participate should procure tickets from Mrs. Drane, at the home between the hours of 1 and 4 this afterroon. No boy will be ad mitted without a ticket. ATTENTION, DEMOCRATS.

TUSLIN UNDERWEAR A word to the point, occasionally is appreciated almost everyone, particularly when the point iB an objective one. We know that nt this season of tlie year, when a trip to the seashore or to some mountain retreat is in comteinplution, that a lady does not have much time to have a seamstress come to the house or do the sewing herself; sewing which every one finds necessary to do. Reasoning in this wise we think it a good thing for us and a good thfng for the purchaser to have a midsummer muslin wear sale. Not only underwear for ladies, but outside wear for children and misses. WEDNESDAY,JULY 2D.
