EIGHT PAGES CITY COUNCILS WILL VOTE ON SEWER PROJECT HERE TONIGHT Santa Ana Officials Coming Here To Receive Reports Of Experts On Proposed Line. City councils and city officials of Anaheim and Santa Ana meet here tonight in an effort to reach a final agreement on the proposed joint outfall sewer serving the two cities and to make a final draft of the plans. This joint meeting follows several secret conferences between the officials of the two cities at which time various disputed points were discussed and on which, it is said, agreement has been reached. The councilmen of the two cities will hold separate meetings tomorrow night and, if the sewer plan is adopted, bond elections will be called for the purpose of financing this $600,000 project. Anaheim's share of this amount is estimated at $230.308. Details of the plans are given in a report prepared by City Manager O. Pink Silk Pajamas and Hubby’s Feet Shatter Her Home LOS ANGELES, Nov. 9.—Lottie E. Spencer announced from the witness stand in Judge Summerfield’s court yesterday in a very determined manner that "I wouldn't press pajamas for any woman." The pajamas had to do with an alleged affair of the heart of her elderly husband, Isaac Spencer, from whom she was seeking a divorce. She testified that he came home one Christmas Eve with a pair of pink silk pajamas stuffed in his pocket. Mrs. Spencer takes in washing for a living and Spencer wanted her to iron the pajamas, saying he intended to present them to a young lady as a Christmas present. It appeared that the Spencers married late in life and that the husband was set in his ways. "He persists in putting his feet on the dining room table," she testified, "and threw his cigar ashes all over the carpet. He said he just couldn't help it." "Well, you can't teach an old dog new ways," commented the judge, as he took the case under advisement, "and I'll have to think about this pajama affair."

This joint meeting follows several secret conferences between the officials of the two cities at which time various disputed points were discussed and on which, it is said, agreement has been reached. The councilmen of the two cities will hold separate meetings tomorrow night and, if the sewer plan is adopted, bond elections will be called for the purpose of financing this $600,000 project. Anaheim's share of this amount is estimated at $230,308. Details of the plans are given in a report prepared by City Manager O. E. Stewart. This report will be presented with a report from City Engineer Hoy of Santa Ana and a joint report at the meeting tonight. Mr. Stewart's report follows: "I herewith submit to you a report on the ocean outfall for the city of Anaheim, together with the report on the joint outfall with the city of Santa Ana." Route Mapped Out "The only feasible route for the Anaheim outfall is directly south on the Garden Grove road to the Pacific Electric railroad, southeasterly along the right of way of the railroad to the paved road running south, and continuing south along the county road to the junction point with the Santa Ana outfall, a total distance of 47,900 feet or 9.05 miles. The minimum grade on this route is 15 per cent. The right of way is along public highway with the exception of some 1200 feet which will parallel the right of way of the railroad and can be secured at a small cost. The route is almost directly south from the present disposal plant of the city of Anaheim and presents no unusual difficulties in construction. "I respectfully recommend for this outfall a 22 inch pipe, which will give a capacity at the minimum grade of 730 miners inches, and will allow for an increased flow of 315 inches or 570 per cent above our present maximum sewage flow of 55 inches." To Cost City $230,300 "I estimate that this line can be built at a total cost of $162,395. The proportion for the city of Anaheim in the joint outfall is 25 per cent of $207,655.58 or $51,913.90 and 50 per cent of right of way and disposal site costs of $32,000, or $16,000. This makes a total estimated cost of the entire outfall for the city of Anaheim of $230,308.90." "The present bonding capacity of the city of Anaheim is $396.187, which will provide funds for this construction for any emergency which may arise in the immediate future. "Both in construction costs and engineering standpoint this present plan commends itself and I strongly recommend that it be adopted and that it be pushed as rapidly as possible to completion." Joint Report Made The joint report of Mr. Stewart and Mr. Hoy on the construction of the line from the junction point to the ocean is as follows: We, your committee consisting of O. E. Steward and W. W. Hoy, ap- ASKS ORANGE COUNTY FOR $1500 FUND TO PROTECT TREES Orange County has been called upon for $1500 to assist in the work of fire protection in the Cleveland National Forest, part of which is located in the mountains near here. The request has come in the form of a letter from the forest service officers. Part of the money is to be used in re-grubbing trails to points of interest and vantage and in cleaning up the fire breaks. The letter is signed by S. A. Nash Bouldin, forest supervisor for this district. The question will come up for action at the meeting of board of supervisors at the regular meeting next Tuesday. Los Alamitos Water Rate Fixed By State Board M. F. Reagan, supplying domestic water in Los Alamitos, was allowed a flat rate of $1.50 a month and meter rates ranging from 25 to 15 cents a hundred cubic feet, according to quantity, by the railroad commission today. BIG STREET CARNIVAL TO BE IN ANAHEIM NEXT WEEK The Anaheim Post of the American Legion will put on a big and glorious carnival all next week on the site next to the library. The advance agent for the Greater Sheesley Shows who will direct the carnival for the Legion boys is now here perfecting all the arrangements. Its biggest and best show on earth because its the Legion Boys show! TRAINED DOGS HEADLINE VAUDEVILLE BILL AT CALIFORNIA Another of those delightful Melkle-John and Dunn vaudeville road shows which have pleased so many of the patrons of the California Theater during last two weeks, is coming to will provide funds for this construction for any emergency which may arise in the immediate future. "Both in construction costs and engineering standpoint this present plan commends itself and I strongly recommend that it be adopted and that it be pushed as rapidly as possible to completion" Joint Report Made The joint report of Mr. Stewart and Mr. Hoy on the construction of the line from the junction point to the ocean is as follows: We, your committee consisting of O. E. Steward and W. W. Hoy, appointed to investigate the matter of a joint outfall sewer, beg to submit the following report: We have made surveys of various routes and have determined the nearest feasible junction point to be the point of intersection of the east line of Section 32. Township 5 South, Range 10 West, with the western line of the right of way of the Santa Ana river, which point is about five-eighths of a mile southwesterly from the Talbert bridge. From this point most feasible route is parallel with, and adjacent to, the west levee of the Santa Ana river. Advantages of Route The advantages of this route over others investigated are that the grades and sufficient and fairly uniform, there will be very little ground water to hamper construction; there are no improvements except drainage ditches which can be moved cheaply, and the right of way should be obtained for a nominal sum because it does not cut across and damage property. The point of discharge into the ocean determined upon is especially desirable because the ocean front is inhabited for more than a mile in either direction and because of the following physical conditions there existing: No Menace to Health The west jetty at the mouth of the river will protect the cast iron pipe for some 500 feet from the shore, the jetty ending on solid rock; the tests with floats which have been made so far show a strong and almost unvarying current off shore and to the south which will carry the sewage so far out that should some counter current bring it back to shore it will be so diluted as to be unnoticeable and of no menace to health. The fact that the sugar company's outfall at this point has been in service for nine years strengthens the belief that the position will give freedom from damage by the elements. (Continued on Page Seven) TRAINED DOGS HEADLINE VAUDEVILLE BILL AT CALIFORNIA Another of those delightful Meikle-John and Dunn vaudeville road shows which have pleased so many of the patrons of the California Theater during the last two weeks, is coming to Anaheim tomorrow. Barnold's Dogs headline this wonderful show and these canines are so well trained that they perform without the assistance of a person on the stage. Old and young alike are sure to enjoy this act and the drunk dog, Dan, will make every one laugh who sees him. "No Mother to Guide Him" is the title of the 500 H. P. laughing success whica Stan and Mae Laurel present. This act has just completed a tour of the Pantons and it was received with laughter in every theater in which it has played. The Crocker Trio, three dainty misses, consists of three small girls who sing and dance. Altthough he are quite petite in size all three of these talented children have a world of personality and the revue which they present would do credit to performers much older. "Songs, Bumps and Smiles" are offered by Wilbur and Lyke and the act is appropriately named. Their work on the trampoline is really marvelous and comedy is not the least part of their act. Everybody's favorite, handsome Frank Mayo, is the star of the photoplay which will be shown in conjunction with this vaudeville program. "The Shark Master" is one of the best pictures Mr. Mayo has ever made and it is a photoplay that is sure to please his many followers.

COUNT WEARS DISGUISE IN ELKS' MUSICAL COMEDY HERE Much interest is being manifested in the forthcoming musical comedy, "Dolly Dimples," the Elks' big Christmas charity musical show at the California theater Monday night, November 14. Colorful costumes, catchy songs, smiles, laughter and attractive scenic effects are promised in this mammoth affair with a cast of 250 men, women and children. The plot of the play is very attractive—a French ambassador to the United States with his charming wife are giving a large garden party and among the guests for the occasion it is rumored that there will be a count of lengthy lineage. Miss Dolly, niece of the ambassador, decides to fascinate the count to the point of matriony. The count suspects something of this plan and promptly assumes a comedy disguise. Of course there are numerous complications of comic nature before the final happy ending. The seat sale opens Thursday at Heying's Pharmacy and from the demand there will be a capacity house.

DUNN DISMISSED The charge of trespassing and hunting on ground where shooting was not allowed, on which H. P. Dunn appeared in the court of Justice of the Peace J. B. Cox yesterday afternoon was dismissed. Dunn said that he thought he had a right to hunt on the land as the company which he represents has an oil lease on the property. Judge Cox ruled that although Dunn had no right to hunt on the land as he claimed under the oil lease, that he had no intent to trespass or shoot on the property against the wishes of the owners.

MAN FOUND GUILTY OF BURGLARY SENT TO PRISON TODAY Reaching a verdict in just eight minutes after they had left the court room late yesterday afternoon, the jury sitting on the case of G. Montra found him guilty of burglary in the second degree. Montra was on his way to San Quentin today in the custody of an officer to start serving his sentence of not more than five years imposed yesterday by Judge R. Y. Williams immediately following the return of the jury. Montra waived time for the pronouncing of the sentence. Second degree burglary, for which Montra was found guilty by the jury, represents a daylight robbery for which the penalty is an indeterminate sentence not to exceed five years in San Quentin.

C. Hartranft, chairman of the parade committee. Arrangements for the assembling of the procession and the line of march are included in the statement which follows: "The parade of the Sunday school convention is assured. The automobiles will assemble cast of the White Temple, facing Broadway on the streets running north and south. A placard will be placed at the intersection of Broadway containing the names of the cities and towns whose automobiles will take part in the parade. The police department will have two mounted police in charge of the assembling. Mayor Stark and staff will escort the parade thourgh the city of Garden Grove road.

It will be necessary for cars to be in line not later than 2:15. Route of Parade "The route of the parade will be from the White Temple, west on Broadway to Los Angeles street, north to Center, west to West street, east on Broadway to Garden Grove; then through Garden Grove to Santa Ana by way of Fifth street, where the mayor of Santa Ana, with als staff and a cordon of police, will meet the parade and escort it through the city of Santa Ana. Thence to Tustin, through Orange, Olive, or Yorba Bridge via Placentia to Richfield and Fullerton, and back to Anaheim, and White Temple." "We are assured from present reports that there will probably be not less than 500 cars in the procession. The cars will be decorated according to the taste of the individuals. Each city along the route is making a special effort to show their appreciation of the presence of this convention in Orange county, and will, without any doubt, furnish a very interesting feature at each place. Fullerton H. S. to Help "The student body of the Fullerton high school are taking a special interest in giving this parade a royal greeting. This feature is promised to be unique and one that will reflect great credit on this educational institution and will be remembered by the drivers there." The Wednesday morning program of the Southern California Sunday School convention was opened with hymn and worship service, led by James E. Dunning. S. M. Cheek presided. Following meditation and prayer, an able address was given by J. Shreve Durham on the subject of "A Nation-Wide Advance in Religious Education." Dr. J. D. Springston then followed with a discussion of "The Denominations and the Sunday School Association." More time than was expected was devoted to business conducted by the board of directors. A committee had been appointed to draft certain changes in the constitution that would effect a merger of the various denominational activities into an interdenominational organization. These changes were accepted by the convention. Following the business, Dr. James A. Francis gave a very forceful talk on "The Quiet Hour—Childhood and the Church." When the convention adjourned at 12:30 all the delegates formed in a circle outside the church and a panoramic picture was taken. ANAHEIM MAN LOSES LEG IN ACCIDENT AT OIL WELL M. E. Smith, fireman for the Union Oil Company at Richfield, lost his left leg in an accident which occurred at an oil well at Richfield late yesterday afternoon. Mr. Smith was taken to the Anaheim Sanatarium where he received immediate treatment, but it was impossible to save the leg. Detailed information as to the cause of the accident was not available. Mr. and Mrs. Smith and their family live east of Anaheim near Placentia and have been residents of this county for a number of years. Several years ago, while working with a hay bailing company, Mr. Smith received injury to one of his legs. Price of Bread Cut One Cent In Portland, Ore. PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 9. — The price of the one-pound loaf of bread was dropped to nine cents retail here today. The one and half pound loaf is now sold for 13 cents. The reduction on both loaves is one cent. CREDIT FOR SUCCESS OF CONVENTION The wonderful success of the state Sunday school convention — the smoothness with which the whole program is moving—the enthusiasm that is being stirred is attributable to the Fullerton H. S. to Help "The student body of the Fullerton high school are taking a special interest in giving this parade a royal greeting. This feature is promised to be unique and one that will reflect great credit on this educational institution and will be remembered by the delegates and friends taking part in the procession. We especially desire that no strangers to the city or country be required to ride unaccompanied by some local parties who may point out the places of interest along the route. "To this end, we wish the people of Anaheim to be prepared to join the procession. We will have sufficient automobiles for all the visiting delegates who are not prepared with their own transportation. The success of this now will depend on the individuals who have pledged themselves, and I particularly desire that each one take a special interest in making this one of the most unique and interesting automobile rides that we have undertaken in Orange county. "Remember the date, Thursday, November 10, assemble at 2 p.m., Broadway, east of the White Temple. "S. C. Hartranft, chairman parade committee."

Indian Summer Foretells Coming of Cold Weather Any fine days in Autumn are called Indian Summer days by those who do not know when that season really comes. In reality, Indian Summer is in November. One of the best descriptions of this season is taken from the "National Intelligence" of November 26, 1857, and the definition was printed to settle a dispute among the readers of that publication. It follows: "The short season of pleasant weather, usually occurring about the middle of November, is called Indian Summer from the custom of the Indians to avail themselves of this delightful time for harvesting their corn, and the tradition is that they were accustomed to say they always had a second summer of nine days just before the winter set in. "It is a bland and genial time, in which the birds, insects and plants feel a new creation and sport a short-lived summer ere they shrink finally from the rigor of the winter's blast. The sky in the meantime is generally filled with a haze of orange and gold intercepting the direct rays of the sun, yet possessing enough light and heat to prevent sensations of gloom or chill, while the nights grow sharp and frosty and the nights give cheerful forecast of the social winter evenings near at hand." TWO MEXICANS TO BE ARRAIGNED NOV. 18 BALBOA MAN IS DEAD, ANOTHER INJURED WHEN CAR OVERTURNS Mose Miller Killed In Auto Wreck Near Newport Beach Early Today—Inquest This Afternoon. Mose Miller was killed and F. H. Robertson injured when the Ford delivery car in which they were riding ran off an embankment and overturned on the Santa Ana road, about a mile and one half from Newport Beach early today. Both men lived in Balboa where they were in the employ of Rogers Brothers company. The overturned car with the men pinned beneath it was not discovered for some time after the accident. Fred N. Best, a dairyman at Costa Meza, was the first one to arrive at the scene. He was passing on his way to the beach in a wagon. Taking the sideboard off the wagon he used them as levers to pry the car off of the men but could not extricate them until The sky in the meantime is generally filled with a haze of orange and gold intercepting the direct rays of the sun, yet possessing enough light and heat to prevent sensations of gloom or chill, while the nights grow sharp and frosty and the nights give cheerful forecast of the social winter evenings near at hand. TWO MEXICANS TO BE ARRAIGNED NOV. 18 FOR MURDER Information in the case of Juan Garcia and Julian Castro, Mexicans, charged with the murder of John Khourri at Delhi, September 11, was filed in the Superior court. Department 1, today. The arraignment of the two men will be held November 18 at which time they are expected to plead guilty. Both men are said to have made a written confession of the crime. MEXICAN SENTENCED TO 90 DAYS IN JAIL Jean Cervantes, Mexican, was found guilty this morning in Judge Howard's court of battery and sentenced to ninety days in the county jail. The charge was preferred by Mrs. Longina Gomez. POSTOFFICE BUILDING IS FAST NEARING COMPLETION No better appreciation of the real extent of Anaheim's growth can be had than through an inspection of the new postoffice building on West Center street. The contractors, John A. Volz & Sons, have a large crew of men at work on all parts of the building and say that it will probably reach completion by the first of the year. The entire building covers a space of ground 80x140 feet. Tae front will be finished in paneled terra cotta and tile. The large first floor section at Center and Clementine streets will be occupied by the new Eisenhauer drug store. Tae remaining section facing on Center street will be occupied by Kitchen's grocery. In connection with the grocery will be the new Mills Brothers restaurant. Farther back, facing on Clementine street, will be a millinery shop and a barber shop. Complete disposition of all the space has not been arranged. On the second floor will be about thirty rooms, each one equipped with the fullest and most modern plumbing equipment. These will be used as turned on the Santa Ana road, about a mile and one half from Newport Beach early today. Both men lived in Balboa where they were in the employ of Rogers Brothers company. The overturned car with the men pinned beneath it was not discovered for some time after the accident. Fred N. Best, a dairymen at Costa Measa, was the first one to arrive at the scene. He was passing on his way to the beach in a wagon. Taking the sideboard off the wagon he used them as levers to pry the car off of the men but could not extricate them until a party of autoists stopped and assisted him. Robertson was on the bottom and Miller was on top of him. When the car overturned Miller was caught in the windshield which was broken over him. Coroner C. D. Brown investigated the wreck early today and has set the inquest at 4 o'clock this afternoon at Smith and Tuthill's chapel in Santa Ana. Investigation by Brown revealed a letter in the man's pocket which was thought to have been sent by a daughter residing in Burbank. This is the only clue to relatives of the dead man obtained by the coroner prior to the inquest. Suit To Quiet Title Filed By Jesse Esrey Suit to quiet title to a lot in Santa Ana was filed today by Jesse Esrey against J. T. Esrey as administrator of the estate of Laura A.
