Southern California SATURDAY... MAY 16, 1874 Kleinigheiten. Mr. and Mrs. Langenberger are in San Francisco. Bennerscheidt is laying the pipes for his gas works. See notice of "Teachers' Examination" in "new ads." Messrs. Lafaucherie, Goodman and Melrose returned from San Francisco yesterday. Some cases of measles have made their appearance in our usually healthy locality. Nine steamers have landed at Anaheim Landing during the present month. All the Anaheimers that went to Los Angeles this week, bought a little bat. We notice in the list of advertised letters in Los Angeles May 11, one addressed to Mr. J. E. Bacon. Mr. Gunther's Century plant is getting to be something tall; it will bloom soon. The District Council of the Granges will meet in Anaheim on the second Tuesday in August. A. Brunson Esq., has gone to Sacramento to take his seat as Justice of the Supreme Court. Los Angeles complains of a small grub worm which is making A telegram was received yesterday thus worded: "Los Angeles, May 15th. Angel against Mitchell get away with the suit." For brevity is very good, when we are, or when we are not understood, particularly in telegrams. We call the attention of those who are unfortunate enough to have become entangled in the meshes of the law, to the law card of our old friend, Col. Thos. L. M. Chipley, of Los Angeles. He has recently returned to that city from the East and has resumed the practice of his profession. We received a polite invitation from the Orange Sunday School to partake in a "Basket Picnic" to take place at Santiago Cañon today. We thank them for so kindly remembering the printer, and regret that business prevents us from enjoying the pleasure which always attends the gathering of our friends of Orange. The following is the list of letters, remaining at Wells, Fargo & Co.'s Express office, May 15th: Chonita Raufel, Chas. Haine, S. B. McFarnabam, J. R. Martin, Jas. McMoore, Jose Olibaras, M. F. Parker, C. H. Williams, W. I. Rumble, Henry Buerdoff, Pierre Cassan & Co., A. T. Crocker, Jno. B. Cabill, P Granet, J. Fisher & Bro., J. H Gwin, E. Fithian, S. Hamilton, W. J. Hobard. Brownell & Miller, paper-mill owners of Illinois, have communicated Mr. Gunther's Century plant is getting to be something tall; it will bloom soon. The District Council of the Granges will meet in Anahaim on the second Tuesday in August. A. Brunson Esq., has gone to Sacramento to take his seat as Justice of the Supreme Court. Los Angeles complains of a small grub worm which is making its appearance in some vineyards, doing considerable harm. The Directors of the Grange Co-operative Company favor the erection of a storing warehouse at Bolsa Chica Landing. The firm of Richards & Granet have dissolved partnership. The business will be conducted as usual at the old stand by Peter Richa Is. Houses are in constant demand here. Some enterprising capitalist could make money by building a few cottages to let. The schooner, Marietta, with a cargo of lumber, consigned to Halberstadt & Co., arrived at Anahaim Landing on Tuesday. There were twenty passengers for Anahaim on the steamer Mohongo, which arrived at Wilmington yesterday. The people in Richland and vicinity are still setting out fruit trees. Six loads of orange and lemon trees passed through town on Tuesday last. Wednesday was marked with both a white stone and a black one in Anahaim annals—the first street gas-light, and the first Chinese baby. The steamer "St. Louis," carrying combustible freight, has been placed on the Wilmington and San Francisco route. It arrived at Wilmington on Wednesday. Wartenburg wishes it distinctly understood that he does not connect with the cars at Los Nietos, as they are too slow. He runs clear through. E. M. McDonald & Co., of Wilmington have already graded and packed 400,000 pounds of the present clip of wool, and have as much business of that nature in hand as Co.'s Express office, May 15th: Chonta Raufel, Chas. Haine, S. B McFarnaham, J. K. Martin, Jas. McMoore, Jose Olibaras, M. F. Parker, C. H. Williams, W. I. Rumble, Henry Buerdoff, Pierre Cassau & Co., A. T. Crocker, Jno. B. Cahill, P Granet, J. Fisher & Bro., J. H Gwin, E. Fithian, S. Hamilton, W. J. Hobard. Brownell & Miller, paper-mill owners of Illinois, have communicated with Enterprise Grange of Los Angeles in reference to establishing a paper mill in or near that city. It would be well for Fairview or Orange Granges to open a correspondence with these gentlemen, as there are no unoccupied available water-powers in Los Angeles county except in the vicinity of the Santa Ana river. Our reporter has seriously injured himself in a second attempt to decipher the name of that Frenchman, whose letter is detained for postage. He, after several futile attempts in the proper position, stood on his head for an hour but gave it up. It is a conundrum. It is evidently written by one who is more accustomed to marking on the backs of sheep than on the backs of letters. The Senator arrived on Sunday morning with a large number of passengers, among whom were Major E.M. Ross and bride. They were welcomed home by a host of friends, and have now settled down to the domestic felicities with the good wishes of all. Marriage has become fearfully prevalent among our young lawyers of late, no less than three having popped out of the bachelors' list within a short time. Express. By reference to the opinion of District Attorney Howard, it will be seen that the several Boards of Water Commissioners in the old organized water districts of San Gabriel, Los Neitos, Azusa, El Monte, Wilmington and La Ballona will hold over until their successors, elected at the general election, to be held next year, have qualified. There will be elections held in each of those districts on the thirteenth day of next month for District Over- Wartenburg wishes it distinctly understood that he does not connect with the cars at Los Nietos, as they are too slow. He runs clear through. E. M. McDonald & Co., of Wilmington have already graded and packed 400,000 pounds of the present clip of wool, and have as much business of that nature in hand as they can attend to for some time to come. The Grand Concert at Gallatin for the benefit of the Presbyterian and Congregational churches of Anaheim takes place this evening. We hope the affair will meet with the success it so richly merits. Among the list of deeds recorded in the Clerk's office of Los Angeles County during the past week, was one from A. Robinson Trustee to Robert Strong for forty acres of land in Las Bolsas. There was a sheep border in town yesterday inquiring for a good sheep lawyer. He wants his wages. It is of most rare occurrence to hear of a sheep man refusing to pay his help. They are generally more prompt than any. The Herald claims the credit of having attracted the attention of the beet-sugar manufacturers of Sacramento to this section. It certainly cannot have seen the circular letter of W. Wadsworth, who after an extended tour through the whole State for the purpose of investigation, selected the visinity of Anaheim as the most eligible location. District Attorney Howard, it will be seen that the several Boards of Water Commissioners in the old organized water districts of San Gabriel, Los Neitos, Azusa, El Monte, Wilmington and La Ballona will hold over until their successors, elected at the general election, to be held next year, have qualified. There will be elections held in each of those districts on the thirteenth day of next month for District Overseers. The Napa Register says: "The Wine Growers of that vicinity are generally in favor of the adoption of the Local Option law. Its effect is put up in this way; The principal drinks sold at bars are not native liquors, but whiskey, rum, brandy etc., of imported make, to stop the sale of which would increase the demand at wine cellars for the native product, and vintners have expressed the opinion that their business would be so largely increased by the change that they would then sell five gallons to one now." There are letters in the Anaheim Post-office for the following persons: C A Abbott, O B Bishop, Charles W Rinsse, John T Brown, S Baxter, G Bernar, Thomas Cudla, Mrs R U Clark, Mr Choan, Mrs M Corona, Mrs Kitty Crum, Joe Canoll, R Carter, H Cleveland, David B Dayton, Mrs A Duke, Mr W Fitchner, T Ferguson, W L Greenup, M Grubel E G R Hand, J Henderson S B Jennings, Mrs Jackson, J Kennday, Rev J W Leach, J McMooke, J McLeon, D B Moore, H M Pomeroy, N W Palmer, Mrs G Parren, H Powell, F Robart M Payne, W M Rieff, J Robinson, Mrs Anna Smith, John William. OUR WESTMINSTER LAYER. New Settlers still Coming—Artesian Wells—Bolen Chien Wharf. There has nothing of much moment transpired since my last epistle. We have no drunks, fights, brawls or load disputes. We move on peacefully, quietly, soberly and prosperously "adown the stream of time." Last month there was quite an addition to our numbers by the arrival of twenty-six individuals. Two families purchased land, I believe, and another rented a small place. The remainder are as yet unsettled. Some property has changed hands, and considerable still remains unsold. I would not like to insinuate that the portion of land which still remains in the hands of the company is the most desirable, for if I should I would get myself into difficulty with the forty or fifty families who are here, for estimating that they had not judgment enough to select the best lands when they had the first choice. Still there is much good land yet unsold. The artesian well company of Westminster still continues to be a great bore, but as a stream of water generally follows its penetrating exertions, we submit with a good grace. Three new wells of average flow have been completed since the first of April. We are doing considerable talking about the wharf at Bolen Chica. How much substantial aid we will be able to give is quite another item. Owing to various causes, which I may sometime present to the public, the first settlers here are not able at present to subscribe "Jesus Pines, or Pierville,"—Henning's Hall, which had been kindly given by Mr. Bailey for the occasion, was filled with an appreciative audience last evening to hear the readings and recitations, serious and comic, of Mr. Stephen Mamett. He fully sustained his reputation, and deserves the encomium which the press throughout the State, but particularly the San Bernardino Guardian and Southern California awards him, and we are sure that should he come this way again, our citizens would turn out on mass to welcome him.—Ventura Signal. GRAND CONCERT.—A Grand Concert will be given by the Choir of the Presbyterian Church, at the Orange School House, for the benefit of the Orange Union Sunday School, on Friday evening, May 29th. The entertainment will commence with a Grand Vocal and Instrumental Concert, and will conclude with a play entitled: "The Spirit of '76" or, "The Coming Woman," a prophetic drama. The evening of the 29th will be bright moonlight. As the Concert is given for the benefit of a worthy object, and as it will certainly be a great success, everyone should attend. Tickets 50 cents. Children half price. MORN. LEWIS.—May 15th, to the wife of L., F., Lewis, a daughter. DIED. FORSTER.—May 12th, at Las Flores, San Diego county, Lucana, only daughter of Marcos A., and Guadalupe Forster, aged 11 years. MARQUIS.—At Los Nietos, Wednesday. We are doing considerable talking about the wharf at Bolsa Chica. How much substantial aid we will be able to give is quite another item. Owing to various causes, which I may sometime present to the public, the first settlers here are not able at present to subscribe very largely towards the wharf fund, but we are all alive to the great advantage which will accrue to this community if the wharf is built in this vicinity. Our Grange meets next Saturday, and arrangements will probably be made to ascertain how much we can subscribe to the stock of the wharf company. Only one opinion seems to prevail and that is that the wharf has become a necessity, that no means must be left untried to secure its completion. One thing is sure, if we do not build the wharf, we must build storehouses for our grain. The Lighter Company acknowledge their utter inability to handle the immense crop of cereals, which is now maturing, to say nothing of the vast crop of corn which is almost certain to be produced. Our financial success depends on the early completion of the wharf, and the sooner we go to work with our hands, brains and money, the better for all concerned. I will let you know what we can do, or try to do as soon as it is possible to accumulate the data. C.H. Westminster, May 12, 1874. Capture of Vasquez. On Thursday Tiburecio Vasquez, the noted bandit, who has for so long a time eluded the pursuing parties, who had devoted themselves to his capture, was wounded and taken prisoner by a posse under the leadership of Albert Johnson, Under Sheriff of Los Angeles County, and H.M. Mitchell, of Los Angeles city. The particulars as well as we can glean them at the time of going to press, are as follows: Information was received in Los Angeles Wednesday that Vasquez, in company with four of his band, had been seen in the vicinity of Cuhuenga Pass on the Coast Line stage road, and it was presummed that it was his intention to make a raid upon the stages of the Coast Line Company. Mitchell immediately will certainly be a great success, everyone should attend. Tickets 50 cents. Children half price. LEWIS.—May 15th, to the wife of L.F., Lewis, a daughter. FORSTER.—May 12th, at Las Flores, San Diego county, Lucana. only daughter of Marcos A., and Guadalupe Forster, aged 11 years. MARQUIS.—At Los Nietos, Wednesday, May 13th, Royal B., youngest son of Jno.F. and Nieta Marquis, aged 3 years and 6 months. MILES.—At Cucamonga, on Tuesday morning, May 12th, of consumption, Francis S. Miles, late of New York, aged 49 years. obliterary. FRANCIS SWEETING MILES was born August 14th, 1825, in the city of Strand, Gloucestershire, England. When quite young, his parents emigrated to America in which country he grew to manhood; like almost all the men who have achieved eminence in this country, he was early thrown upon his own resources, and soon found that if he rose above the ranks of the multitude, it must be by the energy and talents with which nature had adorned him. Undaunted by the almost insuperable obstacles, which unassisted youth and inexperience must encounter before attaining the front rank in his profession, he boldly entered the arena, and aided by his splendid business talents and untiring energy, undeterred by failures, he finally won the prize for which he was contending and became a leading business man in the city of New York, and had the proud satisfaction of knowing that what he had done was owing to his own unaided exertions. Unfortunately, like too many of our people, his love of work was greater than his prudence; his business energy was greater than his physical power of endurance; and just as he had attained the lofty object of his ambition, his health failed, and the greater part of the last seventeen years of his life has been devoted to a fruitless effort to recover his health. It is during this last seventeen years that his true nobility of soul most particularly became manifest. He had always been ready to aid and further any progressive enterprise, and then instead of becoming a selfish, complaining invalid, he nobly devoted these years of sickness and suffering to the study of invalid climates. In the unselfish hope that others might, by means of the information he had collected, recover the health which was denied to him. A part of these observations have already been made public, but when the whole of them have been published, then the invalid world will know and honor the name of one of its greatest benefactors, and like 'Ben Adhem,' his name will stand high in the list of those who loved their fellow men. He was a devoted husband, kind father and sincere friend. An equally vigorous and unfaltering advocate of right and opponent of wrong. In his death Southern California has lost her best man, the one who had the energy to lead, and the sound business I have sold a farm of 220 acres; meats, consisting of a House containment, Crub Store House, Bara Corral amith Shop.

The particulars as well as we can glean them at the time of going to press, are as follows: Information was received in Los Angeles Wednesday that Vasquez, in company with four of his band, had been seen in the vicinity of Cuhuenga Pass on the Coast Line stage road, and it was presumed that it was his intention to make a raid upon the stages of the Coast Line Company. Mitchell immediately started for the locality in order to acquire more definite information or their "whereabouts" and was followed by Sheriff Johnson as soon as he had organized a posse. In the mean time, Mitchell had located him in the vicinity of a house, occupied by "Greek George," and upon the arrival of Sheriff Johnson and party an advance was at once made. There is yet a good deal of vagueness about the accounts of the subsequent action, but this much is certainly known; they surprised and met the outlaws, Vasquez was wounded in the meloe, and with two of his band was captured, and the three prisoners are now inmates of the Los Angeles jail. Two of the party made their escape. Too much credit can not be given to our friend Mitchell, whom we consider to have been mainly instrumental in effecting this capture. He has been out with every party that has started in pursuit, and has oftentimes continued the chase unaided and alone. Of course we do not intend to detract in any degree whatsoever from the prompt and energetic action, which has been always exhibited by our public officials, but would merely express our opinion, as above, that to the un-tiring exertions of Mr. Mitchell, more than anything else, the State is indebted for the repression of this accursa to the community.
