A Rainy Day in Los Angeles.
One day last week the reporter of the Californian found himself in Los Angeles, standing beneath the friendly protection of a Main street awning, and gazing in blank dismay upon the down-pouring rain and the muddy and slush-covered streets of that wisely ruled city. Completely isolated from the cheering companionship of his friends, he could only find consolation in the thought that the same inelement God protected him, whilst chastising, from the importunities of his creditors. However, a dun sometimes is preferable to the companionship of one's thoughts; therefore, taking it all in all, the situation was not pleasant. At length a brilliant and original idea suggested itself. Being a reporter and interviewer, the time was excellent to improve his talent and cultivate his "cheek." He would interview the jewelry establishments of Los Angeles. Carefully perusing the advertising columns of an old copy of the Californian, which happened to be in his pocket, he found that Los Angeles contained only one establishment of that kind, that it was owned by the firm of E. E. Fisher & Co., that no impassable street opposed the carrying out of his determination, and in fact, that he was standing in front of the handsome show-windows of those gentlemen. Possessing a tradition-

The nights are again filled with music. Clark & Austin's new organs, the saddler's big fiddle and Schneider at the Woolen store make music wherever you go.
Michael Reese has made application to the Board of Supervisors, for a wharf franchise at Anaheim Landing. He will have a hearing during the January session.
Two hundred thousand gallons of wine were shipped from Anaheim Landing during the year ending November 30th, instead of 14,000 gallons, as reported by the Wine Dealers' Gazette.
A physician writes, asking the renewal of a note, and says: "We are in a horrible crisis; there is not a sick man in the district."—Exc This physician lives in Anaheim, and is noted for the accuracy and truthfulness of his statements.
Standing beneath the clusters of ripening fruit in one of our orange orchards, and beholding in the distance the snow-clad summits of San Antonio and Cucamonga, one can more fully appreciate the climate of Anaheim.

The attention of our new Suold copy of the California which happened to be in his pocket, he found that Los Angeles contained only one establishment of that kind, that it was owned by the firm of E. E. Fisher & Co., that no impassable street opposed the carrying out of his determination, and in fact, that he was standing in front of the handsome show-windows of those gentlemen. Possessing a traditionary belief in the Cerberus-like character of jewellers generally, and an innate modesty of manner, the idea lost somewhat of its brilliancy, but desperation, isolation and the sight of a creditor, attempting the passage of the street, nerved him to the encounter. Mustering up his courage, imitating the bearing of a California millionaire—a thing by the bye easily done, you have only to become disagreeable—and rattling a bunch of keys, he entered. What he saw in the store, complete in its every appointment, from diamonds of the first water down to silver salt spoons, he feels powerless to describe. The genial manner and kindly courtesy of that very pleasant gentleman, E. E. Fisher, so completely captivated him, that he entirely lost sight of works of art in the admiring contemplation of that rare combination of Nature's handiwork—a courteous gentleman and a jeweller.

Editor Southern California:
I learn by the Star that Michael Reese & Co. have applied to the Board of Supervisors of this county for a wharf franchise.
This wharf company undoubtedly mean business, and to make it what the company desire—a profitable investment, they need a railroad to Anaheim, Riverside and San Bernardino. Now, would it not be wisdom for the people of Anaheim, Riverside and San Bernardino to assist by taking stock, or donating to a company to build a narrow-gauge railroad to said wharf. The Southern Pacific Railroad Co. will undoubtedly take their own time to build their road to Anaheim, and when built it will be a circuitious route to the ocean, where all heavy produce will have to be shipped. If we have a good substantial wharf built in our immediate vicinity, connecting by railroad this part of our fertile valley and the San Bernardino valley, there would naturally spring up a thriving and flourishing town at the Bay, and as the Wharf Company own the adjoining lands they will naturally be inclined to defray a large portion of the expense of said road. The people could well afford to assist in the building of the road, and have the terminus at our natural shipping point. Let the people of Riverside and San Bernardino attend to this
School Examination—An examination of the intermediate and grammar schools of Anaheim, will be held on next Friday in the school-house. Parents of children and interested in education are invited to be present. This exercise will close the school session of 1873. The new session will commence some time in January.
New Music — Peters' Musical Monthly for December has come promptly to hand. It contains over ten pieces of music, which would cost, if bought in sheet form, $4. The subscription price of the monthly is only $3 per year. Address J. L. Peters, 599 Broadway; N. Y.
Job Printing — Having reduced our rate of charges on certain classes of job work, we are enabled to compete with Los Angeles and San Francisco offices, not only as regards workmanship, but in prices as well. We make wine labels a specialty at less than San Francisco prices.
The Art and Photographic Gallery of V. WOLFENSTEIN, Temple Block, Los Angeles, is unequalled by any other establishment south of San Francisco, for the production of fine pictures of every size and description.
For the very best Photographs, go to Bradley and Rulofson's gallery without Stairs. Ascend in the Elevator, 429 Montgomery-st., San Francisco.

The people could well afford to assist in the building of the road, and have the terminus at our natural shipping point. Let the people of Riverside and San Bernardino attend to this matter at once and move in the right direction, and they will never need to subsidize any railroad company, and besides have the road located so as to not be injured by passing the towns so as to destroy their future prospects.

ANNUAL STOCKHOLDEES’ MEETING. The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Anaheim Lighter Co., was held pursuant to published notice, at the office of the Company on Monday last. The reports of Treasurer and Secretary for the fiscal year, ending November 30th, 1873, were presented and referred to a committee, consisting of Messrs. R. Heimann, H. E. Boldt and J. Westphal, for inspection and approval, with instructions to report their action to the Board of Trustees at their first regular meeting. Messrs. Langenborger, Fischer, Zeyn, Korn and Lorenz were re-elected as the Board of Trustees to serve for the ensuing year. The new Board will meet for organization in January.
THE “Woolen Mills” STORE. The branch establishment of Messrs Sacrise, Elliot & Co., is gradually attracting the attention of those who like to purchase good articles at cheap prices. We predict for them large sales as soon as the farming community can spare the time from ploughing and sowing to do their shopping. At present, however, everyone is busily engaged taking advantage of the late rains. The firm has made a wise selection in sending down Mr. Schneider, who presides at present over the establishment. Speaking German and French, he can sell goods to our vineyard and sheep men in their specialty at less than San Francisco prices.
The Art and Photographic Gallery of V. WOLFENSTEIN, Temple Block, Los Angeles, is unequaled by any other establishment south of San Francisco, for the production of fine pictures of every size and description.
For the very best Photographs, go to Bradley and Rulofson’s gallery without Stairs. Ascend in the Elevator, 429 Montgomery-st., San Francisco.

DIED.
REED.—On Sunday December 7th, 1873, at Anaheim, of consumption, Geo. Park Reed, of Brooklyn, New York, in the 36th year of his age.
He leaves a wife and three children to mourn his loss.
TAYLOR—In Southport, Indiana, Nov-21st, William B. Taylor, aged 28 years:
“He left us when his manly heart With earnest hope was boating high; Too soon it seemed for us to part; Too soon, alas! for him to die.
We have the tenement of clay But aye the soul has passed away.
Blest spirit! we will weep no more, But lay our selfishness to rest;
The Providence, which we adore Has ordered all things for the best.
Life’s battle fought; the victory won To nobler tolls pass on!”

community can spare the time from ploughing and sowing to do their shopping. At present, however, everyone is busily engaged taking advantage of the late rains. The firm has made a wise selection in sending down Mr. Schneider, who presides at present over the establishment. Speaking German and French, he can sell goods to our vineyard and sheep men in their own language. He is unquestionably, therefore, the right man in the right place.
AN INTERESTING LETTER.—On the first page of the Californian we publish a very interesting letter, written by a resident of Westminster colony to the Philadelphia Presbyterian. Setting forth the many blessings, experienced by the resident of this section, and at the same time stating the objectionable features, existing amongst us, it is peculiarly valuable on account of its truthfulness. We commend it especially to our Eastern readers.
UTOPIAN.—The Herald man is decidedly Utopian in his conceptions. He believes in railroads, used by the public as common high ways, every man owning his own private train and running it at will. How professional instincts will crop out. We fear, however, that such a locality would become monotonous after a few days, to even a sensation-loving "local."
SANTA ANA ITEMS.—A. L. Bush and family have removed to "El Rincon" rancho in San Bernardino county...Mr. Lewin, of the late firm of Lewin & Hirschfield, is with Messrs. Harris & Jacoby of Los Angeles.
