OBSERVATIONS ByCHARLES KUCHEL Twenty-eight years ago four brothers terrorized people of several middle western states by their daring train hold-ups and bank robberies. Previously these men had been deputy United States marshals, but owing to disaffection among them and superior officers, they left their positions as hunters of bad men in outlaw territory. The men were brave, of good appearance and were above the ordinary intelligence of men who served as officers in the wild and unsettled sections of the middle west where a man had to be quick of action with his shooting irons to keep from dying with his boots on. But these same men, in going to re-establish themselves upon a ranch of their own in an adjoining state from where they had always lived, fell into evil company. A gambling den and a gaudy dance hall on a bordering state line was visited. Here the elder brother lost all his money at a roulette wheel, which he later learned was conducted dishonestly. In retaliation he and his brothers held up the gambler at the point of their guns and relieved him of a large sum of money, "to teach him," as he said, "a lesson." Upon making a hard getaway the men were pursued by a sheriff and posse. While being hard pressed, the elder brother wheeled his horse about and facing the officers, shot and killed the sheriff. The brothers rode on and escaped. Here their career as outlaws began. give the officers a run for their money. A daring train robbery was pulled off in a border state. It was easy. Other robberies followed and a reign of terror began. The men were fearless, and feeling as though they were being hounded they were goaded on in their outlawry. When a sweet-heart of the leader of the bandits, in carrying a secret message to her lover in his hiding place, was pursued by officers and shot and later died from her wound, that incident served to further inflame the outlaws and they swore they would avenge the girl's death. The men were being hunted in several states, and large rewards were offered for their capture. So things continued for several years. Then a bold double bank robbery in broad daylight was perpetrated in a Kansas town by five men, 3 of these brothers being the leaders. Here they met their undoing. Four of the robbers were slain, as were also four men of a citizen's posse who gave battle to the bold highwaymen. The younger brother was the only survivor of the gang, being severely wounded, however. After his recovery he was tried and convicted and sentenced to prison for life. Through good behavior he was subsequently paroled for four months to gain medical aid for a wounded arm. He had then served 14 years in prison. When he returned voluntarily to again resume his prison term he was hardened. Perhaps it might be the present prohibition now in force here. We anti-saloon headquarter leaders, who in turn pledge to the city council when into law three years ago posed to be thoroughly rewarded to pursue demise hair and ex-termination comes an erudite attack the document to pieces humilinate thing, wholly accomplishing the object of no practical avail. properly enforce the amendment the city capped to adopt a steel patterned after that made the county, which gives order to search and sleeze the wet goods line. this the city legal department co-operate so that proper and suffice may be secured against all probability the new city council will be than usual interest. The sale of intoxicants through the guise of bury under the federal prosecution has brought down the offenders the able citizenship of the city. When the licensed thiefs were put out of business ago many people gave up and sat back in the Barleycorn's demise. There Is NO "Guessing" About Anaheim Made $62,400 That is the amount of money paid in wages by the baker Anaheim to their employees year. $62,400 Anaheim Made Bread —It’s the very best bread that good bakers know how to make. —It’s composed of only the very best ingredients—properly mixed and perfectly baked. —It’s made clean, sold clean, delivered clean—not “shipped in.” —It’s made in Anaheim and every loaf sold helps to upbuild Anaheim payrolls. —It’s the better bread—that’s the real reason you should buy Anaheim-made Bread. Associated Bakers Of Anah And Employes warn young men of the folly of wrong doing. But many others express very different ideas relative to its moral prestige as an up-lift to humanity. Perhaps it might be well to state the present prohibition ordinance, now in force here, was sent from anti-saloon headquarters to local dry leaders, who in turn passed it up to the city council when it was enacted into law three years ago. It was supposed to be thoroughly ice and warranted to pursue demon rum to his hair and exterminate him. Now comes an erudite attorney who picks the document to pieces, leaving it unanimate thing, wholly incapable of accomplishing the object sought, and of no practical avail. In order to properly enforce the fourteenth amendment the city council is again asked to adopt a steel-jacketed law, patterned after that now in force in the county, which gives officers power to search and sieve everything in the wet goods line. In order to do this the city legal department is expected to co-operate with the police so that proper and sufficient evidence may be secured against violators. In all probability the next meeting of the city council will be one of more than usual interest. The sale of intoxicants in the city, through the guise of being justifiable under the federal prohibition enactment, has brought down upon heads of the offenders the wrath of reputable citizenship of the community. When the licensed thirst emporium were put out of business a few years ago many people gave a sigh of relief and sat back in the belief that John Barleycorn's demise was sure and as a safety deposit vault, knowing that he will always have five dollars. The other boys in the shop have christened the pup "Gold Nugget" and threaten to kidnap him. Mr. and Mrs. John Hartung came over from their home in Venice the other day, Mrs. Hartung attending a club meeting of her lady friends, while Mr. Hartung renewed his many acquaintances here during his brief stay. He says he likes Venice as a place of residence, and finds much pleasure in visiting the many places of interest there, although he takes keen delight in coming to Anaheim occasionally to see his friends. The latch string always hangs out, John. LICENSES TO WED Trinidad Martiniz, 22, to Rosa Gonzales, 18, Puente; Lawrence Sequin, 22, to Winifred Barger, Los Angeles; Frank L. Wardlow, 22, to Judythe E.

When the licensed thirst emporiums were put out of business a few years ago many people gave a sigh of relief and sat back in the belief that John Barleycorn's demise was sure and complete. But it seems that was only a shifting of the scenes. Now the horry-handed man of toll in many many cases does his own homebrewing while the fellow with the price curves a wistful finger in the proper direction and with a knowing wink the spirits are beckoned on. But this illicit traffic must cease, and the guilty better have a care or the goblins will catch them if they don't watch out. A barber in town recently bought a bull pup. The dog is of a frolicsome disposition so one day the owner gave it a $5 gold piece to play with. And lo and behold the derned pup swallowed the coin. Now the barber is wondering whether to charge it up to profit and loss, or kill the dog and recover the gold piece, or go still further and keep the dog FUNERAL TOMORROW Funeral services of Mr. John Kraft will be held in Ellers' funeral parlors Tuesday afternoon at 1:30 and in St. Peter's Lutheran church of Santa Ana at 2 p.m. Rev. J. H. Peters of Anaheim will officiate. IN THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM.
