MAY 31. 1887 It is said that there are lots enough staked out in southern California to provide for the entire population of the city of New York apportioned at the rate of three persons to the lot. It would take more than the combined cap ital of all the banks of New York to buy up' these lots. They have a story down there about lumber, which illustrates the craze. It is said that a gentleman went to a lumber dealer, and desired enough lumber to build a house. He was looked upon with compas sion by the dealer, who said to him that there was no lumber for sale. When he asked for an ex planation, the dealer replied to him as if he had compassion for his ig norance, that "the lumber was all sold for stakes for town lots." Jake It In Time.
