CALIFORNIA'S NOTED RESORT.| | just three blocks from Pacific avenue, the | Rich in Verdure and Also in Agri- cultural and Dairy Re- sources. SANTA CR CaL, May 24.—Among the many ses »d counties along the 800 miles of shore line of wondrous Califor- nia there is none more fair to look upon than Santa Cruz. Santa Cruz has fifty miles of shore, made up of long sandy beaches, calm bays, where pleasure and fishing boats glide, busy wharves, where passenger and freight vessels touch, and picturesque rock-bound points, where the sea tosses and foams forever. Back from the shore, past the grazing | cattle ranges and fertile valleys, is the Santa Cruz Mountains, out from which rices flat-topped Ben Lomond and dark, shadowy Loma Prieta, the latter rising 4000 feet above the sea. These mountains, clothed with giant redwoods, red-trunked madrona, elder and laurel, whisper secrets of the long ago to all who will listen. They tell of the early Spanish d when the padres established their mil cent to the historic and lovely bay of Monterey; of the happy, ous, romantic days, when the Spanish cavaliers cantered over the plateaus. They tell how the roses of Castile found bloom- ing in this far-away land by the Western sea bound the hearts of these Spanish peo- ple, as with rivets of steel, to this, the ~ountry of their adoption. Only an adobe house here and there, and remnants of the | fast-decaying missions, which are alm entirely buried in the tangled i left to remind us of this Spanish ci tion. Great planing-mills are located in the forests, cutting millions of feet of lumber each vear. Numerous lime-rock quarries and kilns are being worked in the hills a ions adja- | prosper- | | of Sunshine Villa to the Sea Beach Hotel, ! | which is on a high bluff overlooking the | harbor. This airy place, with its wide porches, surrounded by a veritable thicket of flowers and vines, is only a few steps from the surf-bathing point on the beach, where merry bathers make the summer morning hours a time of healthful revelry. | The rose garden surrounding the tennis | court in the rear of the hotel is a delight- | ful spot. The Sea Beach is known far and | wide through the strong ana pleasant per- | sonality of the host, John T. Sullivan. Ocean View terrace has a number of pretty residences. “Villa Perla,’”” the resi- | dence of Fred W. Swanton, manager of the | Electric Light and Power Company, is the | appointments. This home is an appro- | priate setting for thelovely iittle daughter, | Pearl, and her fair, gracious mother. Ivy Lodge, the pretty residence and ex- | tensive ornamental grounds of twelve acres vhich was the honie of the late Judge Mc- Cann, is a typical California home, located main street of Santa Cruz. Mrs. Luey N. McCann, widow of Judge McCann, lives | with her children here. Mrs. McCann, | who is a lawyer admitted to practice before the Superior Court, is one of the best- | most notable. Itisa lovely modern house, | with most perfect interior finishing and | | known women of the State. Asiae from ‘Hotaling building, comprising the well ap- pointed Pixley Hotel and fine Public Library rooms, is a brick structure with 103 feet frontage on Pacific avenue. Designs for a new courthouse, drawn by N. A. Comstock of San Francisco, have been accepted by the Supervisors, and the active work of construction will soon be commenced. The building will be in the Romanesque style, of buff brick, gray sand- stone and terra cotta, with tile roof. The main entrance steps and interior stairways will be of marble. The main entrance will be beneath a graceful arch, from which will arise a massive Roman tower. The courthouse site is the nfost centrally located corner in the business section of Santa Cruz. The building and improving spirit became infectious, and the entire business portion of the city show marks of | extension and renovation. The well-known Pacific Ocean House has an entire story added, also much interior change and im- provement. John R. Chace, the proprie- tor, is one of the most energetic of men, always ready to put his shoulder to the wheel in any scheme which promises to advance the interests of his beloved Santa Cruz. Fishing is the favorite sport, particularly when the Alaska salmon comes into the waters of the bay during June, July {md August.

The first thought in relation to the great water carnival now in prospect originated in her | active brain, and as president of the ladies’ auxiliary she is furnishing much of the en- thusiasm and force which is bringing that first thought into material shape.

Bitumen mines are being extensively de- veloped within a few miles of the city. Tons upon tons of this dark, plastie, dura- ble and most perfect of streét-paving ma- terials (when placed on a well-made foun- dation) are being hauled to the Santa Cruz wharf each day for shipment. Some of the largest and best-equipped dairies in the State are found along the coast north of Santa Cruz, where 50,000 acres are devoted to dairying and pasture. The plow has found its way up the steep hillsides. Fine vineyards are seen where a few years ago all was a dark, woody tan- gle. Apples, apricots and particularly prunes are being most successfully culti- vated on the foothills of this vicinity. Very fine claybeds suitable for maki finest of terra-cotta ware have been located, but as yet have not been developed. In this hum of industry the whispered secrets of the old Spanish days are hard to catch. But itis of the living present and future posgibilities of this little city of Santa Cruz that the busy people of to-day are inter- ested. Just now all eyes are turned with more than usual interest on this city of 9000 in- habitants, which is preparing to give a Venetian water carnival and floral display more gorgeous than anything yet at- tempted in this country. The Los Angeles fiesta is expected to fade into nothingness when the dreams and plans of the Santa Cruzans become a reality in the glad flower- laden days of June. The natural beauties and attractions of this seaside resort are well and widely known. Men of wealth, with the world to choose from, have built their homes on the terraced hillsides of Santa Cruz overlook- ing the bay of Monterey. Golden Gate Villa, the summer home of Major F. Mc- Laughlin, the handsome, genial mining man of Oroville, located on & high ter- raced point, with a wide and commanding view of mountain, valley and sea, is one of the most beautiful places in all California. The architecture is imposing, yet restful. The many porches and open balcony tow- ers suggest the possibilities of happy hours in the open air, surrounded by flowers, palms and vines, which are here in profu- sion. The interior of lovely Golden Gate Villa is superb -in artistic finish and furnishings. Here great wealth has gone hand in hand with exquisite taste, and the result is beyond compare. 3 Immediately adjoining Major McLaugh- lin’s i§ the handsome home of ex-Mayor Bowman. Around the hill, a trifle nearer the sea, is charming Sunshine Villa, the residence of J. Philip 8mith, who is an en- thusiast over the beauties of scenery and climate around this crescent bay of Mon- terey. Mr.Smith, who has lived in all the gay capitals of BEurope and visited the leading é)lusnre resorts of the world, has chosen Santa Cruz as the one spot above all others. . Itisnot far from the beautiful grounds § 1 Duncan McPherson, editor of the Sentinel, | have notably beautiful homes. | The suburban locality adjacent to the “cliff drive,” which circles around the | rugged shore of Bay Point along the ocean beach, is one of the choice spots of the world. This beautiful drive with its in- describable . views, which will some day rival the famous Continental and Eastern beach drives, belongs to the city of Santa Cruz. It is kept in good condition at present, but the day is coming when a boulevard will lead from the heart of the town to this skirting driveway, which will tic and successful fisherman, who wishes all the world could enjoy the excitement of having a forty-two-pound fighting Alaska salmon at the end of 300 feet of small line. Santa Cruz was the first city in the State to own its own water works system. In order to do so bonds toa large amount were issued, but this debt is evened up to the citizens by the extremely low rates paid for pure, naturally filtered water which comes from the mountain tops. To a San Franciscan the figures are absurdly low. Fora house of four rooms 50 cents. For each individual room 10 cents. For use of one horse or cow 10 cents, including water for vehicles and other stable use. For each additional horse or cow 5 cents. For irrigation in excess of 130 square yards to each premises one-eighth of one cent. These figures are the monthly rate, and should be a source of satisfaction. The rapid descent of the water from the moun- tains gives a very heavy pressure for fire extinguishing purposes. Banta Cruz has the mostimportant of all improvements,’a very complete system of sewerage. This was the first city on the Pacific Coast outside of San Francisco, to introduce the electric arc light system un- der municipal ownership. Incandescent | electric lights are in general use here for house illumination. The eiectric light | and power company also own the gas works, and are about- to introduce here a new process for the production of electric- ity and power. Gas engines have been used very successfully in Europe for the running of electric plants. Manager Swanton has determined to be in this forward move- ment, so has ordered two gas engines of enormous horsepower from an Eastern firm, which will be placed in running order in about thirty days under-a strong guarantee that they will accomplish every- thing that is promised. The output of the gas plant will be increased to such an ex- tent that the company will be enabled to make the gas cheaper, and can furnish it to consumers for light and heat at a very low rate, as there will be no waste, as all surplus gas will be used to supply the gas engines, which will produce the electricity. The expenses of the company will be so reduced that it is expected the citizens will reap the benefit in cheaper rates and more excellent service. Santa Cruz will be the first city on the coast to inaugurate the new process, the result of which will be watched with interest. This was also the first city of equal population in the State to con- struct an electric streetcar system. % [ L\\_r,.

In that com- ing time all about Phelan Park —the lovely grove in which the Phelan family of S8an Francisco have built their summer homes— and in the vicinity of James McNeil's at- tractive home, will be the most popular part of Banta Cruz to those who love *'old ocean.”” Owing to the general depression through which the entire country has been passing building sites in this suburb are held at a ridiculously low figure, con- sidering their value as city residence prop- erty. The Christian Church colony (Gar- field Park), surrounding the Pacific Slope Convention Hall, which will seat 5000 pt ple, has also been standing still so far as im- ' provements are concerned, but every sum- mer this park is thickly dotted with tents when the Christian Church of the Pacific 8lope hold their annual convention. Just one year ago Santa Cruz met with a frightful loss by fire. The Courthouse and about fifty buildings lay in ashes. To- day the burnt district is covered with mod- ern buildings more substantial and impos- ing in every way than those which disap- peared at that time. The Santa Cruz County Bank building, constructed of The financial status of the community is good, judging from the reports of the dii- ferent banks which have passed thirough the season of ““hard times” without having to foreclose any mortgages and have paid in- terest on deposits and paid dividendsas | usual. The Santa Cruz Bank of Savings and Loan, which has - been organized twenty-five years, has for its officers Wil- liam T. Jeter, president; P. B. Fagen, vice-president; F. G. Menefer, cashier; Directors—B. F. Porter, William T. Jeter, P. B. Fagen, R. Thompson, Frank O'Neil, F. W. Ely and 8. F. Grover. “The Bank of Santa Cruz Company, -under the same management, was organized five years later. They are now in their elegant new building, with modern safety deposit de- partment attached. The City Bank and Gity Savings Bank is under the same management. President, L. K. Baldwin; vice-president, F. A. Hihn; cashier, N. D. Haslem. This substantial institution has the same cheerful report to make. The People’s Bank, organized three years ago, with a capital stock of $200,000, have money lying in their vaults to loan at reasonable terms on good city and country property. The People’s Bank officers are: President, Henry Willey; vice-president, William Rennie; cashier, A. A. Morley; rough brownstone, is a gem. The A. P, | Directors—A. P. Hotaling, John T. Sulli- van, Henry Willey, William Rennie, Dun- can McPherson, William Ely, D. C. Clark. The largest interests of this locality of the county are held by the F. A. Hihn Company, who own about 15,000 acres of land, 2000 acres of which are covered with a magnificent redwood forest. They em- ploy hundreds of men at their different planing-mills and lumber camps, from which they ship millions of feet of redwood and pine lumber each year. The largest interest of this company is in real estate. Farm property lying on foothill and in valley and suburban residence property around Santa Cruz, Capitola and Aptos is sold by this company on such unique terms that it is worthy of mention, as this firm has been the means of adding many indus- trious people to the population of Santa Cruz County. The unique clause in the deeds of this company is that after one- tenth of the purchase price is paid if the purchaser should die the Hihn Company bind themselves to make a deed of the property without further cost to the heirs of the deceased. This is rather after the life insurance plan and has been taken advantage of by quite a large number dur- ing the last two years. The little suburb of Capitola, with its good bathing beach and fishing, five miles east of Santa Cruz on the bay of Monterey, is becoming quite a summerresort. Many cottages have been built and the fine new Hotel Capitola, built right on the water’s edge, and the large new bathhouse will make this charming nook of the bay a favored resort,, particularly when the lovely drives along the Soquel Creek Can- yon to the Sulphur Springs are considered. Santa Cruz County abounds in good mountain roads, which are sprinkled dur- ing the long rainless summer. The ro- mantic drive through Sycamore Valley up through the canyon, along the rapid mur- muring San Lorenzo, with wild roses among the bramble bushes, where the sun glints through, and a great variety of ferns and shade-loving plants abound, climbing vines wreathing and interlacing the trunks and branches of the trees and swinging across the road from tree to tree in graceful festoons to the grove of the kingly sequoia is beautiful beyond de- scription. Oh, the rest of all this vine tangle! Tourists from all over the world have taken this drive to the Santa Cruz big trees, which is enhanced by the breath of the salt sea sifting through the open- ines. The extremely practical is found in this San Lorenzo Canyon, about three miles from Santa Cruz, where the California Powder-mill, second largest in the United States, is located. Since 1865 this mill has been running under the management of Bernard Peyton. Black, brown, giant and smokeless powder in great quantitiesisthe output of this mill, which employs ninety- five men. W. C. Peyton, son of Bernard Peyton, has made a success of smokeless powder, and during the past two years the smokeless powder from the California mill devosit, and has shipped “it 'quite exten- sively, receiving $10 per ton for all yet sent to the villa residences around San Mateo and to Golden Gate Park. Santa Cruz has most excellent hotels, particularly well equipped livery-stables and prime fruit, vegetable and meat mar- kets. The vineyards and wineries of the Santa Cruz Mountains produce some of the best dry wines in the world. The Santa Cruz Mountain Wine Company, whose three-tunneled 'wine cave is so widely known, is located in the immediate sub- urbs of the city. All their wine is keptin this cool even-tempered place until prop- erly aged. The largest dairy in this county, noted for that line of business, is also located in the immediate vicinity of Santa Cruz, on the coast road. D.D. Wilder here owns 2300 acres in the foothills, over which the 300 cows belonging to the dairy roam. Mr. Wilder has two cream-separators, acting on the centrifugal principle, making 7500 revolutions per minute. The milk is put in these separators as soon as it comes from the cow, and the sweet product of this commands the highest price in the San Francisco markets. During the present year Santa Cruz has expended $15,000 in new school buildings. The High-school building is the just pride of the city. It is built after good archi- tectural designs as to light, heating and ventilation and the interior has every modern convenience and equipment. Tne Board of Trustees, under whom so much money has been nicely expended, are: O. J. Lincoln, Hon. Bart Burke and Dr. P. B, Fagan. Professor D. C. Clark, who has been principal of the schools of Santa Cruz for eleven years, is an able leader for the forty teachers in charge of the differ- ent departments. A free public kindergarten is maintained out of the school fund in connection with the regular school work. County Superin- tendent of Public Schools J. N. Linscott says: ““The most approved methods of instruc- tion are employed in the Santa Cruz schools. Our pupils are admitted to the great universities of the State without ex- amination.” All the different religious denominations are represented here and a very large amount of money is invested in church property. The Congregationalists and Catholics have notably attractive edifices. The Y. M. C. A, have a very substantial building of their own. Liberal branches of thought, Unitarians, Spiritualists and Theosophists, have organizations also. The Public Library and reading-room is the best in the State, considering the num- ber of population. The trustees, Dr. C. L. Anderson, Professor D. C. Clark, Dr. F. W. | Bliss, Ed L. Williams and J. W. Linscott, | are enthusiastic workers in the interest of this institution. The library has light, airy, convenient quarters in the new Ho- taling block, which were designed espe- cially for the purpose. Miss Waterman, the has been the only powder accepted by the | intelligent, kindly librarian, has every- a ,1 VILLA PERLA, RESIDENC % e i i E OF FRED W. SWANTON, United States Government. The process of combining being the secret of success, Mr. Peyton will likely hold a monopoly over this branch of the powder trade. Segregation being absolutely necessary, the powder-mill plant, which is valued at $600,000, is scattered about among the trees in this seciuded spot, which is considered an ideal place for such a line of manufac- ture. The large kilns, where the alder, willow and madrona wood after years of seasoning is made into charcoal for gun- powder, is here. Great heaps of jet black, velvety lumps of charcoal lie in the grinding-room. These huge grinding- machines, like mammoth coffee-mills, grind the charcoal, sulphur and salt- peter. Then these vpowder ingredients are sent to the wheelmills, for the all-important incorporating stage of powder-making. The grade of the powder depends on the length of time it is left under these wheels, each of which weighs seven and a half tons. A $30,000 mill is being put in at the present time for the making of brown powder prisms for 6 and 8 inch guns. The highest standard so far reached in the making of these powder prisms has been by the Germans, but the California company expects to reach the German standard when their new mill is running. In the same locality is found the Kron Tanning Company, a most extensive, weil-managed plant, the output of which is excellent sole leather. The hills back of Santa Cruz are seamed with limestone. Henry Cowell & Co. and I. L. Thurber have the largest quarries. Cowel & Co. have large kilnsand warehouse at the Santa Cruz wharf. The Grover- Cunningham Mill and Lumber Company have large planing-mills at Soquel, Laguna and Boulder Creek, where they employ a large force of men. They make heavy shipments of telephone, telegraph and pile timber. Their extensive yards are near the Southern Pacific depot, Santa Cruz. The lumber, lime, bitumen and powder make heavy freight ship- ment from this point, much of which is done by water. The natural competition provided by the ocean keeps the freight rates down to a reasonable figure in all lines. The wages paid at the powder-mill, tanneries, lime quarries, bitumen beds and different lum- ber camps pour into the channels of trade in Santa Cruz. The well-appointed, heav- ily stocked stores are able to sell at prices on a par with San Francisco. Among the leading merchants are J. Strauss of the Arcade, A. C. Snyder, J. Benheim & Co., Leask & Johnson, Nassendorf & Staffler and E. H. Garrett. Some of the finest work in the line of photography on the coast is done in the gallery of McKean & Ort here at Santa Cruz. The lights, shadoWs and finishing are periect. Their results in the platinum process are wonderfully artistic. F. Thomp- son, the leading florist and nurseryman, has discovered some extensive beds of peat (decomposed lycopodium) in the .moun- tains near here. This peat is of great value in fern and palm culture. Mr. | Thompson has secured the control of this Q thing arranged with extreme neatness and taste. They have 10,000 books, to which patrons have access. Miss Waterman de- clares in favor of this method of manage- ment, as the people read better books since they have the privilege of looking them over before choosing. All the leading magazines and papers are on the reading- tables. The library is surely a credit, and should be the pride of all Santa Cruz. Santa Cruz now has four daily and three weekly newspapers, which are a great fac- tor in the life of the community. All are working in harmony for the coming carni- val and for the upbuilding of this charm- ing locality, which will some day be to San Francisco what Newport is o New York. The coast road will sooner or later be built, whick will make a short scenic jour- ney from San Francisco to this pleasure spoton the placid bay of Monterey. WA BRENING AT JUAREL Attempt of Mexican Rurales to Expel Miners to Be Met by Force. American Workmen Prepare for Reslistance and Trouble Is Likely to Occur. SAN DIEGO, CAL., May 24.—Trouble is brewing at the Mexican mining camp of Juarez, some miles below Campo. Miners arriving at Campo say that the authorities at Ensenada sent word to Juarez that the Mexican Government believed miners at that camp were not making proper and complete returns of the gold being taken out, and that continued evasions of the ex- port duty on both quartz and placer gold would no longer be tolerated. It was de- cided to exact a purchase of the land being worked for gold, and if the miners refused to buy the land at the rate of $250 peracre an armed force would be sent to collect it or drive them out. In fact the Rurales accompanied the notification, ready to en- force orders. As the price was considered exorbitant the mivers left rapidly, and only a few are left who are not yet decided whether to pay the price or fight. Those remaining are Americans and it is said they will rely on their proximity to the United States to act rather independently. They assert they have taken claims in compliance with the law and do not propose to give them up. On the other hand the Rurales stand ready to shoot and trouble is expected. . ————— THE true test of a baking powder is well known to every housekeeper.

The: Proposition to Admit Saloon- Keepers Defeated—Committees Are Appointed. MONTEREY, Car., May 24 — The Knights were kept busy to-day, and it took every spare minute to finish their work. The session was called unusually early, and at 8 o’clock this morning every one of the delegates was on hand and busy with his duties. The resolution adopted at the beginning of the session in regard to the hours of the Grand Lodge was entirely ig- nored. No recess was granted until noon. The main subject of the lodge was the new constitution. The permanent com- mittees were all appointed to-day, and it was with much surprise that the delegates received some of the grand chancellor's decision. The committee on the Pythian Home was the first in order. Stanton L. Carter, supreme representative from Fresno, was made chairman. L. E. Blumberg of Oak- land, W. A. Mackinder of Oakland, George H.

Corrigan of Merced and R.Magnes of San Francisco. The charter of Bayard Lodge 53 was re- voked on account of rebellion in ritualistic work. The grand chancellor was author- ized to issne Grand Lodge cards to such members of that lodge as could show sat- isfactorily that they did not participate in the rebellious proceedings. 1t was decided that in towns in which there are three or more lodges, a bureau of relief will be established and an assessment made upon each member of not more than 20 cents per annum for its support. Appropriations were made for bureaus of relief as follows: San Francisco, $250; Sacramento, Stockton and Los Angeles, $100 each. A proposition to advocate the repeal of the supreme statutes, which debar retail liquor-dealers and bar-tenders from mem- bership in the order, was discussed at great length, but was finally rejected. Lodges were granted privilege of provid- ing a fund for social purposes. The terms of officers for all subordinate lodges were fixed at six months. It was decided to have the portraits of the retiring grand chancellor and the installed grand chancellor printed in the journal of proceedings. The list of officers installed were as fol- lows: Grand chancellor, George Samuels of Oakland; grand vice-chancellor, C. F. McGlashan of Truckee; grand prelate, W. H. Grant of Woodland; grand master of the exchequer, S. G. Little of Dixon; grand keeper of records and seals, H. S. Shaff- ner of San Francisco; grand master-at- arms, W. H. Lehman of Santa Ana; grand inner guard, E.H. Warren; grand outer guard, J. H. Johnston of Sacramento, San Francisco was selected with almost unanimous consent as the place for hold- ing the next session of the Grand Lodge. After adopting a resolution of thanks to the press of Monterey and San Francisco for the full and complete reports of all proceedings, the meeting adjourned. The Rathbone Bisters, having closed the session-last night, spent all this morning in visiting the many points of interest around Monterey. This evening a grand ball and banquet was given by the Grand Lodge at Bagby’s Opera-house to all Sir Knights. —————————— A Sandusky (Ohio) grocer sells eggs by the peck. | | WHAT’S THAT?
