Southern Californian SATURDAY, MARCH 14, 1874. Kleinigheiten. Anaheim has a steam-whistle. Dreyfus is the public benefactor. Geo. Miller has retired from public life. See his special notice. Adolph Rimpau arrived on Thursday on a short visit to his parents. Mr. Robert Parker was slightly injured by a runaway team on last Thursday. Call and see the handsome stereoscopic views, which Addis has taken of Anaheim and surroundings. The Fay Templeton troupe, now performing in Los Angeles, will visit Anaheim on their return from San Diego. The trespass suit of Myers vs Fisher was tried by a jury before Justice Bailey on Monday and decided in favor of the defendant. Mr. Seeley, of Seeley & Wright, brought an extra stage load of passengers to San Juan Capistrano from San Diego on Thursday evening. Our young friend, Fred. Rimpau, is now rejoicing over the handsome present of a new watch. He will hereafter travel on time. Messrs. Hayward and Casey, of Orange, are busy grafting. They have something over twenty thousand trees to graft this season. We have been credibly informed that the owners of the San Joaquin ranchos intend offering for sale in small tracts that portion of their lands, lying around the "Adobe Station." In order to make them available for agricultural purposes, the ditch, which they contemplate building, will be constructed. Jesus Moreno, a friend to Pancho Lopez and a lover of the ardent, influenced by friendship and whisky went for George Miller after the result of the preliminary examination of Lopez was known. The Constable went for him and he then went for jail, where he now ruminates upon the coldness of an uncongenial world. Blowing down the chimney is not a very safe method of extinguishing a kerosene lamp. Such is the experience of a youth who tried it the other night, and had not assistance speedily arrived, and the lamp been thrown out into the street, the readers of the California would have missed its appearance this morning, and the publishers thereof would have been sadder and poorer men. On Wednesday afternoon last, the Orange lodge of Odd Fellows, was duly organized, and the following officers were installed by Deputy District Grand Master, H. Wartenburg, assisted by M. L.

They have something over twenty thousand trees to graft this season. Bush's Irrigation Bill has passed both houses, and only awaits the approval of the Governor to become a law. Charlie Wright informs us that the roads are now in good condition, and that the stages will hereafter leave Anaheim for Los Angeles every morning at half past seven. Read our Westminster letter. The only fault we can find with Mr. Howe, is the extreme brevity of his communications, and the long lapse of time between them. The stage road from San Diego to this place is now thoroughly repaired as far as Los Flores. A large gang of men are now at work between Los Flores and San Juan Capistrano. On account of the great reduction in steamship rates of freight between San Francisco and New York, shipments from way ports on the Pacific coast will no longer be made at San Francisco tariff rates. We understand that Bishop Kip, who is now in Los Angeles, will arrive in Anaheim to-morrow and will preach in the evening at Enterprise Hall. Regular services in the morning by Rev. Dr. Kellogg. Cohen moved into his new establishment on the anniversary of Washington's birthday. To commemorate the incident, he has changed the name of his market from "Union" to "Washington."

Wartenburg, assisted by M. L. Goodman, P. G.; John Fischer, P. G.; E. W. Champlin, P. G.; P. C McKinnie, P. G., and a number of the fraternity from Anaheim Lodge: J. M. Casey, N. G.; D. C. Hayward, V. G.; P. Hennefield, R. S.; H. Tedford, P. S. D. K. Shrode, Treasurer. In the evening, the brethern were regaled with one of those sumptuous collations which our friend Mr. Knighten says are peculiarly characteristic of the people of that section. There is no doubt that the Anaheim brethren did good justice to the repast if we may judge from the difficulty with which the river was crossed on their return home. One of the most attractive features of our little town, and one which speaks well not only for the proprietor of the establishment, but for the liberality of the townsmen, whose patronage has authorized the expenditure, is the "Washington Market" located on Centre street, and belonging to B. Cohen. There is a degree of neatness and cleanliness about it, which is not usually characteristic of butcher shops, and which is but seldom found except in a city establishment. In connection with the meat department, Cohen keeps every variety of vegetables of the season, fruit of all kinds, and every thing in fact that a housekeeper requires for the providence of the table. The want of these articles has been heretofore, a great inconvenience to families, and we trust that the Washington Market will be well patronized and liberally sustained by our housekeepers. On Friday night just after the close of the ball, given by the Anaheim String Band, the attention of a few old "stagers," who still lingered around the scene of recent festivity, was attracted by hearing loud and most vociferous cries of "Mur- Now, just here hearted friend there is another intention.

Let us have The Planters' Hotel is rapidly assuming its new dress Judging from present evidences, C. C. Higby & Co. intend sparing no pains and expense to make the establishment one of the best hostelries in Southern California. An Eastern visitor in search of a favorable climate for the relief of disease of his lungs, says that he finds Anaheim the most desirable point in Southern California, and being a professional man as well as a sufferer, he speaks understandingly. Mr. H. Blanken, the proprietor of the Anaheim Drug Store, is now unpacking a large invoice of fresh drugs, perfumery, etc., which he purchased during his recent visit to San Francisco. With a business sagacity which does him credit, and which betokens a successful business career, he has had some elegant labels, cards, etc., printed at this office. Lovers of fun will rejoice to learn that Mr. Ney Strickland will open a skating rink in Enterprise Hall on next Monday night. When from land and home receding, and from hearts that ache to bleeding, one thinks of the opportunities, neglected when Addis wa here, the reflection will be embittered with pain. To prevent this feeling of sadness, and to comply with the demands which are daily multiplying for his pictures, Addis has determined to remain ten days longer in Anaheim. He has greatly reduced the prices of his photographs. Give him a call. On Friday night just after the close of the ball, given by the Anaheim String Band, the attention of a few old "stagers," who still lingered around the scene of recent festivity, was attracted by hearing loud and most vociferous cries of "Murder," "Police" etc., attended by noises indicative of a hard struggle. Upon investigation it was found that George Miller, the proprietor of the Star restaurant and saloon, was the out-criing individual and that he was holding a Mexican by the name of Pancho Lopez. It appeared subsequently that, whilst "Old George" was wrapped in a profound slumber, and dreaming no doubt of those Isles of Greece, in which in boyish days he, encircled by all the classic memories of Athenian heroes, had learned the first rudiments of "hash" making, he was awakened by the noise of something falling. Looking up, he discovered a man in the act of going through his clothes. He seized him, and exclaiming, "You take my life, when you do take the means whereby I live," or something to that effect, called lustily for help. Upon searching the culprit, coin of the description given by George as belonging to him, and amounting to between eighteen and nineteen dollars, was found upon his person. Lopez was examined on Saturday before Justice Bailey and sent to jail, in default of $500 bail, to await the action of the Grand Jury.

A. KNIGHT Orange P. O. Mar "Citizen's" Reply to the "Star." Editor Southern California: I see that the Los Angeles Star has volunteered some advice to us of Orange county. It is really gratifying for us to know that we are cared for by the more favored of our race. I quote from our Guardian: "The measure had its origin solely and exclusively in the desire of an interested clique to parcel out among themselves the several offices." If the clique referred to means the 800 or 900 signers to the petition for County Division, then he is right; for it is true that "clique" do wish to "parcel out the offices," and not allow Los Angeles to do it for us. Again he says: "It is not necessitated either by distance" etc. I would ask in all candor what distance would necessitate it? Anaheim is 28 miles, and San Juan Capistrano 60 miles from Los Angeles. It that is not distance sufficient, I am unable to tell what would be, with such streams as the San Gabriel to cross with their quicksand bottom. The writer says he has a little interest in the matter." Very candid. Some $4,800 taxes given to any town would naturally interest them a little! Now, just hear what our kind-hearted friend has to say: "But there is another side to this question. We refer to the interests of that part of the county proposed to be set off." Oh! how kind and solicitous towards us, who are not capable to judge of our own wants. Would that we may be always blest with such friends to warn us and keep us from certain ruin! He says: "It is a fine thing to set Our Westminster Letter. Westminster, March 7, 1874. In this neighborhood we are willing to submit to a continuance of dry weather, as the ground in some places is still too wet to plow. Quite a large area has been sown to grain and some are still planting. Several thousand vines and an immense number of trees have been planted, and the colony is flourishing, and in my estimation will continue to flourish notwithstanding the malignant misrepresentations of some of our neighbors. Our Grange is in a flourishing condition and now numbers fifty members and more are waiting to join. Our Grange has on two occasions turned out to assist sick brethren, in work which demanded immediate attention. Such acts of disinterested kindness can not fail to make the Order popular. Several times lately I have been asked questions regarding the effect of this climate on the health of persons suffering from the asthma. I wish to state that while I resided in the vicinity of San Francisco, I suffered severely from this disease, the least exposure often bringing on severe spasms. Since my residence here, now of over two year's duration, I have seldom been troubled with the disease, and whenever I have, it was always the effect of carelessness on my part. I would freely recommend this climate to any invalid suffering with the asthma, although I should prefer Anaheim to Westminster and the foot-hills to Anaheim. Somehow our Legislature moves very slowly in the matter of county division."

THE SECOND STORY OF THE Melz Building Now, just hear what our kind-hearted friend has to say: "But there is another side to this question. We refer to the interests of that part of the county proposed to be set off." Oh! how kind and solicitous towards us, who are not capable to judge of our own wants. Would that we may be always blest with such friends to warn us and keep us from certain ruin! He says: "It is a fine thing to set up housekeeping for one's self, but it is better to cling to the old home." This is not good doctrine. Who ever knew one who clings to the old home to amount to much. But look at the young man who starts out, self-reliant, and succeeds, while the one who throws all his earnings into a common treasury seldom comes out any better than the new county of Orange has done, which pays in the taxes of which the upper portion of Los Angeles get all the benefits. In proof of this, look at our roads—the Landing road with not a bridge or a rod of turnpike on it, yet it is one of the great thoroughfares for freighting in Los Angeles county. The writer says: "It the proposed division takes place, they will find themselves taxed to support a full set of officers, the creation of county buildings, and be compelled to pay their pro rata of county indebtedness." This is true, but if we stay with Los Angeles county for the next two years, we will have to do the same and also help to build a county hospital and such other improvements as Los Angeles desires as we are helpless, being in the minority, which will only increase our liabilities and not benefit us one cent. In the upper portion of Orange county there are now ten school districts. All except one have a good school house, and that one has levied a tax to build; so our friend need not fear that our school interests will suffer by a change. As for county buildings, a liberal citizen has generously offered his hall, rent free, for two years, and the law creating the new county has wisely provided what salaries shall be paid county officers, which does not take over half of the tax now raised in this portion of the county, leaving a balance annually to pay on the indebtedness of Los Angeles county, so it will be seen that instead of being a burden to support the new county government, it will actually be a relief, and in a few years with the economy guaranteed in the law, we can pay off our portion of Los Angeles indebtedness and have money in our treasury for home improvements. Let us have our new county least exposure often bringing on severe spasms. Since my residence here, now of over two year's duration, I have seldom been troubled with the disease, and whenever I have, it was always the effect of carelessness on my part. I would freely recommend this climate to any invalid suffering with the asthma, although I should profer Anaheim to Westminster and the foot-hills to Anaheim. Somehow our Legislature moves very slowly in the matter of county division. Would it not be a good plan for each citizen to write to any members of the Legislature with whom he is acquainted, and ask their support and influence for the measure? The Feeling in Los Nietos. Through the courtesy of Messrs. Heimann & George, we are permitted to publish the following extract from a letter received by them from an influential citizen residing near Los Nietos: "The subject of County Division is looming up and creating no small amount of anxiety among the people between the rivers, from the fact that a very large majority of them wish to be in the new county. I think what the new county would be greatly benefitted by having them. Can you not manage so as to have the line changed to Old River? I believe that it this change is not made, the influences brought to bear against the movement will prevent it passing this session. The people here would much prefer going to Anaheim than to be cut off with Los Angeles." Public School Report. Report for the month ending March 13, 1874 Grammar school. No enrolled.

Editor Southern Californian; Please permit us through your valuable columns to express our heartfelt gratitude to the ladies of Tustin City, Santa Ana and Orange, who, as leaders, made the Festival of March 3d such a grand success, and as a result made us the recipients of $108 15. The Festival was an effort for the support of the resident minister, and to raise means for the purchase of an organ for the Sunday School. The total receipts were $164 40. The supper was a model one, even for first-class hotels; neat, tasty, varied and abundant, it became an exponent of the thrift, intelligence and industry of the people. We could not mention names, Mr. Editor, for the line would reach into the limits of trespass upon your space. With our thanks to all the members of these communities, who in any way rendered assistance in this happy affair, and a hope that God may bless them abundantly from his great storehouse of goodness, we gratefully subscribe ourselves, Mrs Nannie M.
