games and last, but not least, in partak
ing of a bounteous repast. The young
Chauncey M. Depews exercised their
talent in after-dinner speeches in re
sponding to the toasts. A promenade
to St. James park was an enjoyable fea
ture.

SANTA MONICA.
Glorious! was the universal expression
made by the multitude of Southern' Pa
cific railroad men and their wives,
mothers and sweethearts as they landed
at the sity by the sea on their first pic
nic. The boys came down in such num
bers that it looked at one time as if all
Angel town was out on a lark. They
brought down Knoll's orchestra and
through the courtesy of Cowley and
Baker danced in the Arcadia ball room.
The picknicker was out in great force
and enjoyed the privileges extended to
them by the Arcadia management while
they feasted on mother's goodies. When
the last train pulled out for home every
body voted the picnio a success, and
votes of thanks were passed to the
Southern Pacific, Cowley and Baker and
tbe efficient committee in charge. It
would be hard to state who was there,
far easier to tell tbe few missing ones
from tbe throng who congregated, on
the sands, enjoyed the surf or strolled
.through the town.
Decoration day was duly observed here
by the members" of Fort Fisher post and
their friends, who assembled at the post
headquarters at 10 a.m. and thence pro
ceeded to the cemetery, where the graves
in God's acre of those who served their
country in her hour of need were decor*
ated by the fair bands cf Santa Monica
ladies with the choicest blossoms.
After the beautiful and impressive ritual
of the order was road. In the evening
the ladies gave a memorial service, which
for appropriateness has never been
equaled. A special feature of the same
was a tableau of forty-four young ladies
who represented the forty-four states,
and the scene was one never to be for
gotten, while it completely captivated
the visitor. At the close, A. Mooner,
who fought under the gray during the
late war, completely won all hearts by
having refreshments served to the young
ladies and their friends.
I had a pleasant chat with Harry
Dougherty, whom everyone knows in
Southern California, and was pleased to
learn that the gentleman Will be with
us during the season at the Arcadia.
Harry has a smile for everyone, which
captivates both young and old.
A few days ago A. N. Bruhn, one of
the proprietors of the Neptune gardens,
stole a march on his many friends and
got married. His friends not liking
su'-h treatment, gave him an old-fash
ioned serenade, Friday night, when the
Mandolin club furnished the music. It
was a most enjoyable affair to the par
ticipants.
Train Dispatchers Robert Hamilton
was everywhere, aiding the railroad
boys, and putting them at their ease.
To him was dne largely the success of
the occasion.

LONG BEACH.
It is refreshing the way the Terminal
people are pushing their work ahead.
The avenue on the beach front is being
rapidly graded and will be finished in
short order; they also have a large force
of men at work just outside the city's
limit making the biggest cut that will
be necessary on their road. This route
will be ao nearly straight between Los
Angeles and here as it possibly can be,
and when finished we will be the near
est seaside resort—a big item, by the
way.
It has been lately rumored in
Santa Ana that the Southern Pacific
were going to build from there to Long
Beach; now if our good friends and
neighbors of Santa Ana would substitute
the Terminal for the Southern Pacific
they would about hit it. General Man
ager Burnett told me the last time he
was down here that they would build
from here to Santa Ana as soon as prac
ticable after the Los Angeles and Long
Beach line was finished.
The W. C. T. U. of this place held a
meeting at the Presbyterian church,
Wednesday last, at which some import
ant business was transacted. Mrs.
Frances K. Baright of Loa Angeles and
Mrs. Rhoda Faulkner of Santa Paula
read some interesting papers apropos to
the work in hand. Mrs. M. S. Drake,
president of the local branch, is a tire
less worker, and as an executive is above
the average. The society here is intel
lectually and numerically strong.
The Tabernacle is being repainted and
otherwise put in order for the approach

several "fat takes," and the general in
terest evinced in Southern California
anent the meetings will undoubtedly
make them unusually successful.

Miss E. M. Oldham, of Los Angeles,
was down looking after her property in
terests Friday.
The Long Beach Breaker has
changed hands, Mr. Drake having sold
the plant to H. A. Yarnell, of Los An
geles, who will issue the next number.
Mr. Yarnell will now whoop it up for
Long Beach, as he has moved his family
here.
Mr. E- C. Denio has been busy this
week putting his mother's handsome
house and ground* in order preparatory
to spending the summer here.
Mr. and Mrs. E. B. Cushmsn came
down Friday e\ening.
From the number of inquiries thus
far for houses it is apparent that there
is not near enough houses here to sup
ply the demand. Nemo.

slowly. But it is no impossible or even difficult
task to render those small bodies, the kidneys,
active when they are not so. Don't try lo do
this with unmedicated alcoholic stimulants.
The experiment is unsafe. The sure, safe
means is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which
afford just the right amount of stimulus without
overdoing the mutter. Continued inactivity of
either the kidneys or bladder—it should never
be hst sight of—is attended with grave peril.
Bright's disease, diabetes, and other ailments
which affect the renal organs, have their origin
in Inaction of Iho kidneys. To overcome this
is an easy matter at the outset. Not so later.
Now is the appointed time ln a case of this sort.

desiring to remain at the Sanitarium for treatment. Everything under the personal supervision of
Dr Wong. Consultations absolutely free. The followingare a few of the testimonials of patients
cured by him:
For seven months I was treated by five different doctors, none of whom stated what my dis
ease was. During that time 1 suffered terribly and continued to fail- until I became a
skeleton. For the last three months 1 had to be dressed, fed and have my water drawn; finally
my feet, limbs, hands and face became swollen. I could not rise from a chair and could
scarcely walk, and was obliged to have my water drawn from fifteen to twenty times a day.
My friends considered I would not last many days. 1 then —tnree montns ago—commenced
treating with Dr Wong. The first dote of medicine completely relieved me. and since, I
have not teen obliged to resort to artificial means for relieving my bladder, ln 5 days I was
able to dress and feed myself, In 10 days the swelling had left me and I could walk as well as
for years before. I now weigh as much us I ever did and feel better than I have felt for 15
years. lam 75 years old and feel tip top. Dr. Wong says I was afflicted with one of the 14
kinds of kidney diseases. W. W. CHENEY, Rivera, Cal., August 29,1890.
Our little son was taken very sick about two months since, had a high fever and finally a
white swelling developed on his neck. Dr. Wong cured him in two weeks' time and completely
removed the Lwelling without cutting or causing ihe child any Dam.
MR. AND MRS. G. P. W. JENSEN, Alvarado street,
November 4th, 1890. Los Angeles, Cal.
For nearly one year I was treated by the most noted physicians of New York City to whom
I paid $25 per day for medical advice. They failed to prevent me from running down. Finally
these physicians told my friends that my case was incurable, and that I could not possibly lire
one year as I was ln the last stages of consumption. Dr. Wong cured me in four months' time,
and I am as well as any man in the world, and have worked hard for two years' time

TO THK PUBLIC.
I take this opportunity of highly recommend
ing Dr. Wong Him's abilities as a physician to
all who have auy diseases, especially those
whose complaints resist the treatment of other
physicians.
For two mouths I suffered from impure blood
and disordered stomach, together with a sore
lip which failed to heal, and was finally per
suaded to call and see Dr. Wong Him at his of
lice, 639 Upper Main street. I bad a consulta
tion, and after an examination of "my pulse he
gave me a powder for my. lips and medicine in
ternally, and said he would cure me in one
week or ten days, and at the expiration of that
time declined to give mo any more medicine,
because I was cured, which statement I fully
endorse, for I have not been so well for a long
time. JOSEPH R. DUBBS,
February 25,1891. Los Angeles, Cal.
I had been sick five months, paid out large
Bums of money for dcotors and medicines, but
deriyed no benefit. Dr. Wong Him was recom
mended td me by a friend. I did not think I
could get well, as my lungs and kidneys were
very bad and getting worse all the time. Dr.
Wong Him took me in this condition: he has
in two months' time entirely cured me, and
now I feel it my duty to testify ln his behalf.
I wish to recommend him to the public as an
efficient, and skillful physician.
