The following were the officers elected: Mr. A. G. L. Trew, President; Fred. W. Athearn, Vice President; Mrs. Evans, Secretary; Miss A. Heimann, Treasurer. The Greenback Club of Los Angeles have nominated as their representatives to the Constitutional Convention Edward Evey, of Anaheim, Judge Gibbs, of San Gabriel, and Hon. H. K. S. O'Melveny, of Los Angeles. Greenbacks are now selling at par at the banks. It hard for an "old soger" to realize this, when he remembers that he used to sell hard-earned greenbacks for forty or fifty cents on the dollar. As the programme for the Old Follows celebration was not given us yesterday, we presume that its details have not yet been agreed upon. But that the day will be celebrated becomingly and heartily there need not be the slightest doubt. Mr. D. K. Williams fell from the roof of the St. Michael's church yesterday. He was somewhat shaken up, but fortunately had no bones broken. Mr. Williams was endeavoring to capture a swarm of bees which for some time have made their home under the church root. All day yesterday the committee of the Magnolia Bon-bon party were busily engaged in preparing the hall for the ball on Thursday evening. Nothing will be spared to render the occasion a delightful one. The musicians have been preparing some new pieces especially for the evening and we are satisfied that the opening ball of the Magnolia Club will be a perfect ovation. Messrs. Heimann & Sorenson shipped to San Francisco on last Monday 20,000 pounds of raisins. This represents about one-sixth of the quantity manufactured at the Alden Workadast season. The destruction of the Works by fire is a calamity which will not be fully appreciated until the question of the disposal of the coming abundant crop confronts our fruit-growers.

Heimann & Sorenson shipped to San Francisco on last Monday 20,000 pounds of raisins. This represents about one-sixth of the quantity manufactured at the Alden Works last season. The destruction of the Works by fire is a calamity which will not be fully appreciated until the question of the disposal of the coming abundant crop confronts our fruit-growers. — We are indebted to the publisher for a copy of McKenney's Business Directory. An edition of 6,900 copies has been issued, and as the price per copy is only $2 it is certainly the cheapest and most extensively circulated directory that has yet been issued on this coast. It speaking of Anaheim, the Directory says: "The climate is excellent, the high temperature natural to this latitude being tempered by sea breezes. The enterprise and sagacity of the business community bespeaks for Anaheim a brilliant future." — On Saturday Mr. L.C. Tibbetts, of River-side, attempted to cross the Santa Ana river at the Agua Mansa crossing, with a four horse team and several passengers. The river was swollen by the recent storms and in the midst of the stream one of the lead horses fell. As soon as the wagon stopped the swift stream overturned it, throwing a girl ten years of age, named Simons, beneath the wagon, and drowning her before she could be rescued. Mr. Tibbetts had a leg and arm broken, and the other passengers were roughly used. — Republican. — The Republican County Central Committee held a meeting in Los Angeles on Saturday to consider the proper course to pursue in the selection of delegates to and member of the Constitutional Convention. As a result of the conference they have issued an address in which they say: "Being convinced that the best interests of the State will be subserved by ignoring political and partisan issues, and believing that the members of such Convention should be selected to represent fairly and equally the professional, agricultural, commercial, mechanical and laboring elements of society, it was unanimously resolved that the committees and representatives of all political organizations in this county be and hereby are invited to unite with us in urging upon the citizens composing the elements above enumerated to, in proper Convention or otherwise, select representative and fitting men for such Convention, and to give a ticket thus selected unanimous support." WEEKLY ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA: SATURDAY, APRIL 27, 1878. The Convention. In accordance with a notice previously published, a meeting was held at Kroeger's Hall on Monday night to make nominations for the various offices to be filled at the ensuing municipal election. Mr. Isaac Cohen was chosen Chairman and E. F. Cahill, Secretary. Messrs. Roques and Plato were appointed tellers, after which the convention proceeded to nominate five trustees. After the first name had been proposed (that of Mr. Cohen) Mr. Mendelson claimed the attention of the audience. He had proceeded with his remarks but a few minutes, when he was peremptorily called to order by the Chairman, so that we are deprived of the pleasure of reporting, and our readers of the pleasure of reading, what would probably have been a very interesting disquisition on our municipal affairs. The following gentlemen were placed in nomination: L. Cohen, Tim Boege, L. W. Kirby, Dr. Yocum, P. H. Look, Theo. Reiser, P. Davis, C. Hilmer (declined), E. A. Saxton, Charles Hille. The ballot resulted as follows: Kirby .....50 Boege .....44 Yocum .....43 Look .....38 Reiser .....33 Cohen .....30 Saxton .....19 Davis .....16 Hille .....6 The first five named gentlemen were declared the nominees of the convention. Mr. Theo. Rimpan was nominated for treasurer by acclamation. For Assessor, Mr. John Fischer and Mr. Washington Letter. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. WASHINGTON, D.C., April 13. The events of the past week in Congress have been fraught with unusual excitement, beginning with the settlement of the door-keeper muddle on Monday, and the passage of a bill placing the gallant old veteran, Gen. Shields, upon the retired list. But these proceedings magnified as they had been into matters of national importance, were entirely overshadowed by the Waterloo defeat of Jay Gould and his lobby in the Senate. According to the idea of "Marine-band Harrison" who proudly stands up and exclaims, "I am an American Congressman"—the country has been agitated and shaken from stern to stem over the short-coming of a poor door-keeper whom such wind instruments as Harrison has annoyed to death to obtain places for strikers. The secret of this muss is that some Congressmen think their chances of re-election are slim unless they can show their influence in obtaining places. Re-election is the only thing they now have in sight, and if there were to be no elections for members next fall the proceedings of Congress would make a different showing. The popular song is: Ho, boys, carry me long, Carry me till I die; Carry me to the public crib— But don't you carry me by." But the passage of the Railroad funding bill in the Senate, in spite of Gould and his powerful lobby, is one of the most important acts of the session. It evinces a purpose to control these corporations and make them comply with their obligations to the govern- ORANGE CULTURE. Having learned by accident that a small book on Orange Culture had been published in Florida, we sent to the author and purposed a copy. And we propose, from time to time, to give such extracts from the book as we think will be of interest or benefit to our readers. In this issue we give the chapter on THE DISTANCE APART. The distance apart in the grove that trees should be set depends upon the character of the trees to be set. The seedling should have the greatest distance, the sweet seedling budded less, and the sour stock budded least of all. In Europe, where budding on sour stock is generally practiced and land is much higher than in this country, trees are set much closer than is the custom in Florida. In the former country, where set in the open ground, they are frequently put as close as ten or twelve feet apart, and where artificial covering during the winter is resorted to still nearer. But in Europe orange tree never grow to the size they attain in Florida. In some of the old groves in this State where the trees stand forty feet apart the ground is completely covered by branches of trees that have grown up since 1835. Thirty-four forty years, however, is too long a time to leave the land uncovered. Trees planted nearer together will soon protect each other Twenty-one feet apart is a good distance for budded trees and thirty for seedling.

S. Brooks and F. A. Bee, for papers of citizenship. They were of two classes, one for a man that came to the State under legal age, and the others on declaration of intentions. The Clerk of the Court refused the applications, referring the applicants to the Court. The facts of the case were stated in open Court. Several of the attorneys presented briefs and expressed an opinion in the matter. After arguments by Brooks, Preston and Sol Heydenfeldt, Jr., the Court took the case under advisement. SAN FRANCISCO, April 20.—At the Bay District Track, to-day, Controller was backed trot twenty miles within an hour, to wagon, tor $500 a side. The track was in fine condition. Odds in favor of the horse about four to three. The horse won in fifty-eight minutes and fifty-seven seconds, coming in fresh. It was the best time on record. SAN FRANCISCO, April 23.—The County Committee of the Workingmen's party met in consultation last night with the Presidents of ward clubs to devise means to defray the expenses of a campaign. It was decided to raise the amount needed—about $4,000—by popular subscription, and a committee was appointed to canvass the city. The party has obtained a room on Kearney street for a registration office and general headquarters. COLUMBUS, Ga., April 22.—Col. W. S. Salisbury, banker, Mayor, pro tem and proprietor of the Enquirer and Sun was assassinated Saturday by Dr. R. M. Palmer. The cause was an article published in Salisbury's papers. Palmer fled. WASHINGTON, April 22.—There is some talk of settling the Mormon question by annexing Utah to Nevada. It is predicted that a strong movement is soon to be made to admit Washington Territory as a State. NEW YORK, April 22.—William Orton, President of the Western Union Telegraph Company, died at his residence at 7:30 this morning, of apoplexy. Banting, the great undertaker, better known for his pamphlet on corpulence, has gone the way in which he so often conducted his fellow mortals. Suffering greatly from obesity, he formulated a dietary regime which became celebrated and popular. His method seems to have worked well in his own case, for he lived to be eighty-five. For years before he put himself in training he was obliged to walk down stairs backwards just his protuberancy should overbalance him. The most frequent and best giver of dinners nowadays is said to be Mr. Hewitt of whom a writer says: "His own stomach surrendered to his artistic palate years ago, but his science is still in its prime." There is hardly a day in the seven that a dozen knees are not knocking neighborly under his mahogany." Fernando Wood is set down as a liberal entertainer, but his dinners are too much like grand banquets, and the guests too numerous. Nevada Jones' dinners are elaborate feasts. Thurman's are quiet and enjoyable, and Bayard's are eaten mostly by Western members. But the mantle of Simon Cameron seems to have alighted upon Ben Butler. Those seductive little champagne lunches which earned the Foreign Affairs Committee room the soubriquet of 'Cameron's pantry,' are spread now in the stone palace across the way. Until I learned the mystery of those lunches and saw how easy it was to slip a member or a Senator out while an important bill was pending. I never understood why Butler built his house where it stands, two miles nearly from the fashionable quarter of the city. There was a time here when Sam Ward was not only the "king of the lobby," but likewise the prince of dinner givers. Ward was a most remarkable personage, and his fame is almost world-wide. His winning personal manners, his extensive acquaintance and many incompatible qualities, made him a lion of his time and kind. But he has abdicated. He has met his fate and fallen in love. Last fourth of July he met James Keene, a California millionaire, at a New York hotel, and acquaintance soon ripened into intimacy. Keene fell sick and through it all Ward was his devoted nurse. Upon his recovery gratitude took a most substantial form, the result of which is that Ward now lives in California free from all care for the future. It is said that he sometimes talks in his retirement of writing a history of his life in Washington. It would be "mighty interesting readin." Another result should be considered this connection. Where grass and weeds are allowed to grow in the grove they generally killed by the frost during the winter. In this condition they absurd part with moisture very readily, absorbing moisture when the atmosphere is warm than the ground, and yielding it up when the atmosphere is cooler than the ground; the wind is blowing. But to part with moisture is to part with heat and increase the cold.

At no time should the roots of grass and weeds be allowed to mat themselves on lawn growing the orange. Not only will they draw heavily on the soil while they growing, but when turned over the turf and matted roots will necessarily leave the surface very irregular, causing the ground dry rapidly under the influence of sun and wind.

GAZETTE. APRIL 27, 1878. ANGE CULTURE. In the past, by accident that a small large Culture had been published, it sent to the author and pursue such extracts from the book will be of interest or benefit to In this issue we give the ME DISTANCE APART. The apart in the grove that trees depends upon the character of the set. The seedling should test distance, the sweet seedless, and the sour stock budded where budding on sour stock practiced and land is much higher country, trees are set much is the custom in Florida. In country, where set in the open are frequently put as close as feet apart, and where artificial ing the winter is resorted to, But in Europe orange trees to the size they attain in Florida. The old groves in this State where and forty feet apart the ground covered by branches of trees down up since 1835. Thirty or however, is too long a time to and uncovered. Trees planted water will soon protect each other. Feet apart is a good distance trees and thirty for seedling. with wet straw. The wind passing through the wet straw took up from the exposed and larger surface of the straw its moisture together with its heat, and left the water to freeze. To leave any dry straw or litter on the ground during the winter, only intensifies the cold and invites the frost. The writer knows several beautiful groves that were entirely frozen down from this cause, while others in the immediate vicinity were unhurt. Mulching during the winter has a similar effect. In this immediate neighhood an old and beautiful orange tree was heavily mulched during winter. It was the only tree hurt by the frost in the grove that was hurt very badly, taking two or three years to recover. While the trees are young keep the grove clear of grass and weeds, Summer and Winter. If you mulch during the Summer, bury the mulching as the Winter approaches; dig holes and bury the litter. In cultivating the grove with the plow there is constant tendency of the soil to pile up around the trunk of the tree. This should be watched, and if the crown of the lateral surface roots is half an inch below the surface, from this or from deep planting, the soil should be drawn from around the trunk till the upper side of these roots are brought to the top of the ground. If the upper parts of these roots are left bare, for one or two inches, where trees are five or six years old, and for a greater distance where the trees are older, these roots develop very rapidly and not only furnish stout braces to the trunk, but great arteries for conveying life and food from the soil. This point is so little understood and attended to by many cultures, that it may be well to state cheap; and it is as simple as it is cheap. And it is capable of infinite variety." I was dumb with awe, as the possibilities of the new invention unfolded before me. "I believe—in fact I know," said he, rising, and walking hurriedly around the room, and tapping the partitions and furniture with his fingers, as is his curious habit, "that in ten years my machine will be used to provide the table of the civilized world. Meat will no longer be killed, and vegetables no longer be grown, except by savages, for my method will be so much cheaper." "What will become of the farmer, Mr. Edison?" "They will not need to drudge as they now do. The days of hard work are over. They can study and enjoy life." "But how will they support themselves." "You forget that men work chiefly to obtain food. When food costs them nothing, they will need to work only for shelter, clothes and luxuries." "This food making is done by machinery? Can I see the machine?" "Yes," he said, "but do not ask any questions about it. I am applying for several additional patents and am not ready for a full disclosure." "I would like to know more about it." "Yes; I will tell you some things. All of our food comes primarily from the earth. The plants and fruits we eat come from the moist ground; and the animals we eat live on the plants or on other animals which the plants have kept alive. So all the food comes from the elements that are stored up in the earth, air and water. You eat a grain of wheat for instance. That wheat is are frequently put as close as feet apart, and where artificial being the winter is resorted to. But in Europe orange trees at the size they attain in Florida. The old groves in this State where forty feet apart the ground is covered by branches of trees grown up since 1835. Thirty or however, is too long a time to and uncovered. Trees planted near will soon protect each other. Foot apart is a good distance trees and thirty for seedling. Ground has been cleared off for makes should be driven where the rest.

Age will live with almost no but it will only be a sickly existow no plant, shrub or tree, that water for good cultivation; none pond so certainly to thorough in the grove should be kept surface light. As far as the roots used the surface should not be larger than three inches. The more is stirred the better. Beyond the roots it is well to cultivate frequently, but as the roots extend this area of deep cultivation is enclosed. After the roots have themselves well over the ground, how to be used is the sweep. A third inch sweep, or a gang plow, for front plow twenty-two inches the two side plows, fourteen does excellent work. It is bet-turning plow or cultivator. The rich more uniform in the depth of than either. It is much more work than the single plow. It is cut off the weeds below the sur-tect them, than the cultivator. An implement, a grove free from bitter is easily and cheaply kept edition. Orange trees are young, it is of keep the ground planted in—peas, beans, potatoes, tomato that requires frequent work mature within a few weeks, partial—the ground. Of course nothing taken from the ground without equate return in the form of suitable fertilizers will be noticed in chapter. Trees are planted far apart and ten years will elapse before the ground occupied by the orange, grapes will do well and prove profitable, the soil is well drained. The should the roots of grass and meet themselves on land should be watched, and if the crown of the lateral surface roots is half an inch below the surface, from this or from deep planting, the soil should be drawn from around the trunk till the upper side of these roots are brought to the top of the ground. If the upper parts of these roots are left bare, for one or two inches, where trees are five or six years old, and for a greater distance where the trees are older, these roots develop very rapidly and not only furnish stout braces to the trunk, but great arteries for conveying life and food from the soil. This point is so little understood and attended to by many cultivators, that it may be well to state further. This development of the crown roots is nature's plan when not interfered with. Whoever will visit and examine a natural forest, whether of orange or other trees, will find the top of the crown roots from one to several inches above the ground and running in many instances, as great braces, well up the trunk of the tree. This development of the crown is slow at first, but increases in proportion as the upper surface of the roots lift themselves above the surface of the ground. This development can be hastened by taking away the earth from above the roots for a short distance from the tree, as mentioned above. The principle is the same as that adopted for the development of the bulb of the onion by taking the earth from around it. The root of the plant, being more porous than the stem, parts more readily with its moisture at the point where it is exposed, and hence the thickened sap lodges more readily at that point, and so hardens into wood and increases the growth. As the upward circulation passes only through the new or sap wood, this enlarged base furnishes at the very seat of life and strength, new and increased capacity to the tree. Food Machine. Professor Edison, the inventor of the magic phonograph and the aerophone, those extraordinary talking machines which are now astonishing the world, has hit upon an even more wonderful discovery, and one which will revolutionize all departments of society, and change, in time, the very nature of man. According to the New York Graphic, Professor Edison has made a "Food Creator." He has already manufactured about eighteen tons of food, in great variety, from the small machine now running, and his material is simply "dirt taken from the cellar, and water taken from the pipes." The reporter being asked to lunch with Edison gives the following account of what he saw and heard and tasted; "What are we eating?" This was the puzzle. There were several dishes. One was solid like headcheese, but tasting like woodcock or some very delicate game. It was easily cut with a knife. Then there were soda biscuits and butter, and honey. Coffee, too, or a warm beverage that looked like coffee, but which had a delicious aroma different from any I had ever seen. The additional dish was a sort of Bavarian gelatine with cream and quince jelly poured over it— Can I see the machine? "Yes," he said, "but do not ask any questions about it. I am applying for several additional patents and am not ready for a full disclosure." "I would like to know more about it." "Yes; I will tell you some things. All of our food comes primarily from the earth. The plants and fruits we eat come from the moist ground; and the animals we eat live on the plants or on other animals which the plants have kept alive. So all the food comes from the elements that are stored up in the earth, air and water. You eat a grain of wheat, for instance. That wheat is mainly composed of a few simple gases and salts that last year were lying dormant in the earth, the air and the water. It occurred to me that the process might be hastened; that instead of waiting a year for nature to collect these elements into an organic seed, I could collect them in and hour, or perhaps a few minutes, and arrive at the same result by combining them in organically. This I have done." "You first find out what a particular kind of food is made of?" "Yes, I analyze it. There are sixty-five simple elements in nature—that is, substances which we call simple elements, because we have not yet succeeded in proving them compound. I am afraid that your readers will not understand what I am going to say. If you use it, be careful to take it down verbatim. There are sixty-five elements. Carbon is the king of these. It is the great organizer; it is never absent from any plant or animal organism; it is the base of almost everything; it is the key to my discovery; it possesses the peculiar capacity to form molecules from its own atoms. The diamond is pure carbon—so are graphite and charcoal nearly pure carbon, though they are so different. Sugar and starch are hydro-carbons—and I cannot understand why their manufacture out of the earth and water has not been hit on before. I form all my meat compounds by exposing three elements in a red hot state to nitrogen gas, though I use different flavors." "What is to be the result of your invention, Mr. Edison?" "Well, I think that after two or three years New Yorkers, for instance, will no longer eat meat or vegetables. They will not send to the tropics for fruits or to Europe for wine, because the head of every family, by turning a crank, (or perhaps without turning a crank, if clock work is attached.) can produce more delicious fruits and wines at a tenth cost." The reporter continues his account with an elaborate explanation of the Professor's modus operandi in preparing food. Every form of food and drink can be manufactured from chemical elements, in quantity and proportion identical with those existing in the natural article. This is the whole secret. Splendid wine, fruits, vegetables, and every possible variety of meals are produced, precisely the same in taste and flavor with the original, and differing only in outward appearance. The startling announcement opens up a peas, beans, potatoes, tomato that requires frequent work future within a few weeks, partial the ground. Of course nothing knew from the ground without equate return in the form of suitable fertilizers will be noticed in the chapter. The trees are planted far apart and ten years will elapse before the ground occupied by the orange, grapes will do well and prove profitable, the soil is well drained. Should the roots of grass and flower be allowed to mat themselves on land or orange. Not only will they grow on the soil while they are set when turned over the turf and stems will necessarily leave the surregular, causing the ground to under the influence of sun and have advised cultivation to August and September, alleging to allow the weeds and grass to cheese months in order to check growth, and so allow the wood of to harden so as to resist the investment during the winter. But the experimented extensively and exconsidering results—with the way, and where others were pursupolicy, he has advised them to culture or garden crops on a part and in every instance where has been kept thoroughly cultivathave doubled, in size and thrift, need to be left to the mercy of the grass. Result should be considered in relation.

But to part with to part with heat and increase in some sections of Europe, before of ice machines, considerable selected stored away and where the temperature was only 40°. The was induced by simply covering water, and surrounding the ice ponds What are we eating? This was the puzzle. There were several dishes. One was solid like head cheese, but tasting like wood-cock or some very delicate game. It was easily cut with a knife. Then there were soda biscuits and butter, and honey. Coffee, too, or a warm beverage that looked like coffee, but which had a delicious aroma different from any I had ever seen. The additional dish was a sort of Bavarine gelatine with cream and quince jelly poured over it—a flavorful dish. I enquired what had been set before us, but the professor laughed, and hoping I would accept his assurance that it was harmless, said he must leave the explanation to Edison. He told me some incidents of the inventor's life, which shows that he is quite as wonderful as his machines. Presently Edison came in, with a hurried stride and a breezy air. (He always goes up stairs two steps at a time.) Apologizing for his absence, he requested Professor Johnson to telephone to Albany that the phonograph would not be ready till Wednesday night. The latter then left the room, and we were alone, Edison took a haasty morsel, and lifting up a piece of gamy substance on a fork said: "Do you know what this is?" Receiving a negative answer, he continued: "The Graphic has been very generous in its descriptions and illustrations of my work. I am going to tell you something. I have a big secret. To-day I have got my receipts for my caveats from Washington, and may safely tell about it. I believe I have struck the biggest invention of this age. What do you think it is?" "The phonograph," I said. "Oh, no, something new," he replied. "Perpetual motion," I suggested. "No." he answered. "A perpetual motion that is good for anything as a propelling power is, I believe, impossible. I have hit upon something that is greater than that." "Tis food." "This food?" "I yes—I made all these samples from the dirt taken from the cellar, and the water that runs through these pipes. I can make tons in the same way. The process is very The reporter continues his account with an elaborate explanation of the Professor's modus operandi in preparing food. Every form of food and drink can be manufactured from chemical elements, in quantity and proportion identical with those existing in the natural article. This is the whole secret. Splendid wine, fruits, vegetables, and every possible variety of meats are produced, precisely the same in taste and flavor with the original, and differing only in outward appearance. The startling announcement opens up a great field for speculation on the results of Edison's genius. "The Napoleon of science" has indeed accomplished a wonder if the Graphic's story be reliable. The cost of the machine, for an average family, is only six dollars it is said. With this apparatus, a convenient dirt pile and a pond of water, theater families need have no further anxiety about butcher's bills and grocery accounts, but by a simple "turn of the wrist" could bring out quail on toast, or woodcock, or other delicacy, as the capacity and nature of the machine might warrant. Space will hardly permit amplification on a subject which is so suggestive of limitless comment. We can only say that if further developments confirm the Graphic's statement we will await the advent of the "food creator" with intense interest. To make lemon jelly cake, take two teaspoons of white sugar, half teacup of butter, three and a half teacups of flour, one teaspoon of sweet milk, three eggs, one teaspoonful of baking powder. For the jelly, use the grated rinds of two lemons, two tablespoons of cold water, two cups of sugar, two eggs well beaten. Warm the water, sugar and lemon gradually together; add the eggs when scalding hot. Cook slowly, as is burns easily. Bake the cake on layers and place the jelly between. Frank M. Luce, aged 16, of San Diego, was accidentally killed on last Saturday, while out hunting. He slipped on a rock, and the concussion caused the gun which he was carrying to discharge. The ball entered the chin, passing upwards, and death was instantaneous.
