Hewitt If one will give the subject a moment's thought he will be surprised at the number of exhibits which, with proper effort, Anaheim could send to the Horticultural Exhibition. In speaking of Anaheim, we of course mean Anaheim school district. Just at this moment the following articles occur to us: Wheat, barley, corn, rye, oats, grapes, raisins, fruits of all kinds, fresh and dried; wine, brandy, beer, artesian well pipe, honey and honey barrels, harness, lime juice, trees from the nurseries, corn meal. Half a hundred articles might be added to the list. On motion of Supervisor Ott, the Board of Supervisors rejected the claim of N. M. Norcross for damages on Santa Ana road district. The fire in the Santiago Canyon destroyed 75 stands of bees on Mr. Witte's ranchhoe. It is said that he sold the bees the day before they were destroyed. The horse Gibraltar, owned by G. O. Tiffany of Los Angeles, won the trotting match at Oakland on Thursday. Time of the best heat, 2:24. Mr. W. A. Morrison is at present building several new wagons at his shop on Centre street. Frightful Loss of Life. London, Sept. 12.—The Abercarne colliery is the property of the Ebbow Vale Steel, Iron and Coal Company, one of the largest iron and coal properties in South Wales. It is situated a few hundred yards from the Abercarne railway station, on the Western Valley section of the Monmouthshire Railroad. The pit, which was 300 yards deep, and one of the largest and best worked in the district, was yielding 1000 tons of steam coal daily. The machinery for winding, pumping, and ventilation was of the best kind, and the use of safety lamps in the mine was rigidly enforced. The cause of the explosion cannot even be surmised. Three detonations were successively heard on the surface. The framework and casing of the pit were thrown to a height of 300 feet above the mouth of the shaft. The colliery employs upward of 1000 hands, of whom 373, taking their turn or shift, went down at 11 o'clock yesterday morning. Twenty-one of this number came up at noon, up to which time nothing had occurred to create a suspicion of danger. At 12:10 p.m., a loud rumbling noise was heard, followed by a series of flames from the pit's mouth and a column of TOWN OFFICERS. Freasurer... Theo Rimpau Assessor... John Fischer Marshal...

Apply at the Gazette office. -In Anaheim on Wednesday the thermometer reached 104 degrees; on Thursday 102, and yesterday 101. -A meeting of the Board of Directors of the Black Star Coal Company will be held on the 27th inst. -The Probate Courthas heard and allowed the final account of A.W.Esteinhart, administrator of the estate of S.Goldstein, deceased. -The schooner Hayes has arrived at Wilmington from Coos Bay, with 226,000 feet of lumber for A.Guy Smith & Co.. This is the second cargo that Messrs.Smith & Co.have received within a month. -We must ask the indulgence of our kind correspondents. There are a number of interesting articles on file, which will be published just as soon as we can make room for them. -A partial list of articles dealt in by Mr.H.Cahen will be found in our advertising columns.His store has never been so well the district, was yielding 1000 tons of steam coal daily.The machinery for winding,pumping,and ventilation was of the best kind,and the use of safety lamps in the mine was rigidly enforced.The cause of the explosion cannot even be surmised.Tree donations were successively heard on the surface.The framework and casing of the pit were thrown to a height of 300 feet above the mouth of the shaft.The colliery employs upward of 1000 hands,of whom 373,taking their turn or shift,went down at 11 o'clock yesterday morning.Twenty-one of this number came up at noon,up to which time nothing had occurred to create a suspicion of danger.At 12:10 p.m.a loud rumbling noise was heard,followed by a series of flames from the pit's mouth and a column of smoke,dust,and debris ascending high in the air.The explosion damaged the winding gear,the destruction the only means of communication with the men working in the pit.As soon as the damaged gear could be repaired,working parties were sent down the shaft and 82 men and boys,working within a few hundred feet of the shaft, were rescued,但它 became evident,as attempts were made to advance into the workings that little hope could be entertained of any life surviving.About 400 yards fromthe bottom ofthe shaft are the stables and here 14 horses were found,all dead.Beyond this point the explorers could not go on account of the impurity of the air and the prevalence of choke damp.Volunteer explorers succeeded in bringing out 10 or 12 men very much burned;also 7 dead bodies;but it is feared that no others can be,for the present,got at in consequence of the fire extending,and there remains no reasonable hope that any further lives will be saved.The whole district of Monmouthshire is much excited and it seemed last night as if the entire female population of the district had gathered about the mouth of the shaft. A Cannibal Programme. [From the Cincinnati Commercial.]Previous to Kearney's appearance there were loud yells for "Haynes."Mr Haynes,who is a howling socialist,came on the platform and delivered a ranting and blood-curdling address.He said: Mr.Charman:I have not come to take up your time.I have a programme that I want to read before Kearney appears.Is a programme for to-morrow night,in the city of Newport It is as follows: First—Soup,made of blood wrung from infants in factories,who are worked 10 hours a day by capitalists. Second—Roast—Two bank directors will be roasted on interest wrung out of the poor and on coals of luxury. Third—Boiled Chinamen,with leprosy and diseases for sauce.[Laughter.]Fourth—Fricaseed School Board,seasoned with turnpike monopoly. Fifth—Iced bondholders' blood,mixed with blue aristocracy.And he will pick his teeth with the bones of the Democratic party,and then fan himself with the plumage and feathers that are picked from the old Republican.[Laughter.]Managers,Tom Scott,Vanderbilt,and Jewitt;Treasurer,Belmont;Chaplains,Henry Ward Beecher and Joseph Cook. Distinfecting Foul Places. The Scientific News calls attention to the importance of getting rid of vile smells about The schooner Hayes has arrived at Wilmington from Coos Bay, with 226,000 feet of lumber for A. Guy Smith & Co. This is the second cargo that Messrs. Smith & Co. have received within a month. We must ask the indulgence of our kind correspondents. There are a number of interesting articles on file, which will be published just as soon as we can make room for them. A partial list of articles dealt in by Mr. H. Cahen will be found in our advertising columns. His store has never been so well supplied as it is now, and it will well repay one to make an inspection of the stock. An orange orchard for $100 per acre is an offer which has never heretofore been paralleled. But unless a purchaser is found soon it will be withdrawn from the market. Full information given on application at this office. A correspondent of the San Francisco Chronicle says that leaves of the blue gum, made into tea, will cure yellow fever. We knew it was only a question of time until some lunatic obtruded the eucalyptus cure once more upon a suffering public. The Thespian Club of Anaheim are rehearsing nightly for an entertainment which they propose to give on October 11th. The programme will comprise an Ohio, a temperance drama entitled, "Fruits of the Wine Cup," a farce, "The Quiet Family," and a social dance. We predict a crowded house, and an enjoyable evening to those who attend. For some time past an individual has been prowling about the premises of some of our citizens during the night. He has twice narrowly escaped capture by Officer Bohn, and that official proposes to put a stop to the unknown's midnight peregrinations in a very summary way, if the practice is continued. Messrs. Goodman & Rimpan have been quite successful in purchasing barley. They have bought an enormous quantity, but their ery is still for more. Those who have choice lots for sale ought to consult them, as they offer the outside price for good barley. One hour after the first paper in the case was filed yesterday, our District Court entered a decree of divorce. Quickwork that, distancing even the lightning pace of Chicago—Herald. Fourth—Fricaseed School Board, seasoned with turnpike monopoly. Fifth—Iced bondholders' blood, mixed with blue aristocracy. And he will pick his teeth with the bones of the Democratic party, and then fan himself with the plumage and feathers that are picked from the old Republican. [Laughter.] Managers, Tom Scott, Vanderbilt, and Jewitt; Treasurer, Belmont; Chaplains, Henry Ward Beecher and Joseph Cook. Distinfecting Foul Places. The Scientific News calls attention to the importance of getting rid of vile smells about dwellings, and makes this practical suggestion: "The article commonly used to disinfect foul places is chloride of lime, but in reality it is not of much value. It may and generally does remove bad smells, but the cause still remains, as the chloride simply destroys the gaseous emanations. The much advertised disinfectants are usually catch-penny nostrums, and unworthy of notice. One of the very best disinfectants is old-fashioned 'copperas,' or sulphate of iron, which may be had very cheap. A barrel of copperas would weigh probably 300 pounds, and can be purchased for a cent and a half per pound. And every family ought, especially in warm weather, to have a supply of it on hand. A couple of handfuls of copperas thrown into a bucket of water will soon dissolve, and it can then be used freely, and is a valuable disinfectant. The best plan is to fill a half barrel or keg with water and suspend within it a moderate-sized basket full of copperas. In this way it dissolves more rapidly than when thrown to the bottom of the wooden vessel, and thus a supply is always at hand ready for use." Yellow Fever in Ohio. Cincinnati, Sept. 12.—H. W. Bieltz, of Memphis, who was taken to the hospital on Sunday with yellow fever, died last evening. It is said that a very malignant type of fever has broken out at New Richmond, Ohio, 20 miles from this city. Of six or seven persons attacked, five have died. The patients turn yellow, and before they die, present the peculiar symptoms of black vomit. Physicians pronounce the disease hilious fever. Gen. Butler has been nominated for Governor of Massachusetts by the Independent Greenback party. HORTICULTURAL PAVILION. Now being erected by the Southern California Horticultural Society, on Temple Street, Los Angeles, only 1,500 feet from the junction of Main and Spring Streets, which is considered the center of business. The Pavilion Lot has a frontage of two hundred feet on Temple street, and extends back to Sand street, a depth of three hundred and forty feet. The above cut represents the Temple street. The Sand street front is reached by easy grade with no stairs. The Pavilion consists of a main hall, two stories high, with a frontage of 76 feet by a depth of 132 feet, with an annex 39 by 60 feet in the rear, to be devoted to the purposes of a Stage, and annexes on each side 50 by 50 feet, two stories in height, one to be devoted to the purposes of a Machinery Hall, and the other to an Art Gallery. In the angles in front of these annexes, one story apartments will be constructed 40 by 32 feet each, which will be employed respectively for Fine Art and Floral Halls. The Auditorium in the main hall will be 112 by 76 feet, and, with the extensive galleries, will have a seating capacity of 4,000. The Pavilion complete presents a frontage of 176 feet by a depth of 161. The main central hall is now being built, and the wings will be added as soon as the finances of the Society will permit. The Directors intend to build only so far as they can pay, and are firmly resolved to incur no indebtedness. FIRST ANNUAL EXHIBITION OF THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY.

LOCAL DEPARTMENTS.—In order to give each locality exhibiting products at the Fair ample credit for their productions, each town, neighborhood, or district will be properly designated and will be as large as is consistent with the capacity of FIRST ANNUAL EXHIBITION OF THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY. Will be held at the NEW PAVILION during the week. Commencing Monday, October 17th, 1878. All Premiums will be paid in coin except when otherwise specified. Liberal Premiums are being offered in the following departments: 1st. Agricultural Implements, Vehicles, etc.; 2d. Textile Fabrics and materials from which they are made; 3d. Mechanical Products, Musical Instruments, etc.; 4th. Agricultural Products, Flowers, etc.; 5th. Fruit, Fruit Trees, Raisins, Wines, and Brandies; 6th. Fine Arts. LOCAL DEPARTMENTS.—In order to give each locality exhibiting products at the Fair ample credit for their productions, each town, neighborhood, on school district applying for space will be allowed a department of its own, which will be properly designated and will be as large as is consistent with the capacity of the Hall and the applications for space. This is the largest hall south of San Francisco in this State, and the prospects are good that the approaching Fair will be the largest ever held in Southern California. The Central Pacific Railroad Company will transport all articles exhibited at the Fair over their routes, FREE OF CHARGE. Freight being paid on them to the Fair will be returned upon the reshipment by the same owner and exhibition of certificate of Secretary that the same has been exhibited. Wells, Fargo & Co.'s Express Company will carry, free of charge, all articles sent to the Fair for exhibition not exceeding ten pounds in weight. Arrangements are being made with the Steamship Company to carry freight and passengers at the usual reductions, particulars of which will be published as soon as definite arrangements are completed. EXCURSION TRAINS are being organized on all the road centering at Los Angeles. These trains will carry passengers to and from Los Angeles at less than half the regular rates, and ample time will be given excursionists to visit the Fair and examine the city and county. The excursion train from the north will start from San Francisco, particularly in regard to the running of these trains will be made public at an early day. The Society will have in its Pavilion more space than any Fair ever before held in Southern California, and yet the applications for space are so much greater than ever before that those desiring to exhibit should lose no time in making application for space to the Superintendent. Towns and neighborhoods should take steps at once to secure a creditable representation of their respective localities. No charge is made for space or entries. Each exhibitor must hold, however, a Season Ticket, which will cost three dollars. Premium list and Rules and Regulations sent free on application to the Secretary. The Pavilion will be completed in time for holding the Fair on the day advertised. L. M. HOLT, Secretary. TO THE PUBLIC.
