Kleinigkeiten. Mr. J. De Barth Shorb, of San Gabriel, says he is not a candidate for any political office. The Anaheim Water Company's assessment becomes delinquent on Monday, and stock holders must pay on or before that day or they will be declared delinquent. Mr. Charles Niles, of Los Angeles, has received a small importation of Poland pigs, which he can recommend as being the best Poland China stock ever brought to this southern country. Mr. J. Yoch, of St. Louis, Mo., a heavy stockholder in the Black Star Coal Company, has sent a thoroughly experienced coal miner to act as a foreman of the company's mine. This will ensure the scientific development of the mine, and its rapid and economical working. Gen. Stoneman arrived in town on Thursday night, and yesterday drove to the coal mine. The General says that he has taken our statements as to Anaheim's exemption from frost with several grains of allowance, but that he is convinced by personal observation that our claim of immunity is a just and truthful one. Stick a pin there. It now appears that the horses found at Los Nietos, and supposed to be those stolen from Ma Worter were not his. A few nights A TERRIBLE OUTRAGE. How a San Francisco Drummer was Abused—He is set upon while on his way to a Fandango. Mr. C. L. Ackerman is a brunette, about fifteen hands high and is by occupation a drummer for a prominent furnishing house of San Francisco. In pursuit of orders he arrived in Anaheim on last Tuesday, and having done a profitable business he expressed at night a desire to visit what he termed a "fandango"—one of those free and easy dancing parties for which he had heard that Southern California was famous. Mr. Ackerman had never been in this country before, and it was evident from his talk that somebody had been "stuffing" him with the most absurd tales of the lawless character of the native population. With a commendable thirst for information he pursued his inquiries among the b'boys throughout the day, and it is needless to say that they made the most of his gullibility. In return, he told them what he would do did any of the outlaws attack him; how he would deliberately pull his pistol and kill them off in detail as fast as they came at him, etc. The b'boys afore-said determined to test the Ackermanic metal, and to that end acquiesced in his suggestion to visit a fandango but at the same time warning him that it was rather a rough resort, and that, in order to reach it, it would be necessary to pass through a part of town in which robberies and murders were not of infrequent occurrence. Now, it so happened that the residence of one of our prominent citizens was lit up on that night with unusual brilliancy, as a church social was being held there; and the sounds of music and revelry were borne out upon the night air and to the capacious ears of Mr. Ackerman, who, supposing that they issued from a Mexican dance house, expressed the belief that they must be having a gay time, and manifested an impatience to be off and become a participant in the fun. The party, composed of Mr. Meyberg of Los Angeles, Isidore Lievre, of San Francisco, two Anaheim gentlemen and the festive Ackerman started off in the direction of the "fandango." To reach the place they had to pass through a narrow street hindered with willow; and just This will mature the science development of the mine, and its rapid and economical working. —Gen.

A few nights ago tour horses, some clothing and valuable papers were stolen from the sheep camp of Manuel Silva, about a mile from town. The robbers also killed a goat which was tied nearly opposite Messrs. Look & Co.'s slaughter house, and carried away the body, leaving the head for the rightful owner. —The annual report of District Attorney Thom is published. He has collected since the 4th day of March, 1878, $2,139 16 delinquent school taxes. One hundred and seventeen indictments have been found for different offences, of which 84 have been tried and 66 convictions had. There have been four civil suits in the District Court to which the county was a party. Six Grand Juries have been impanelled. Thirty-three suits have been brought for the collection of delinquent school taxes, most of which are now pending. Orangethorpe Items. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE.

Corrected weekly by Spear, Meade & Co., No. 316 and 318 Washington St. S.F. The very general rain through the northern part of the State during the past 48 hours has lowered the prices of many lines of produce. Buyers confidently expect very heavy crops this year, and all disposition to purchase for the sake of speculation has been checked. BARLEY—70@85c City warehouses full social was being held there; and the sounds of music and revelry were borne out upon the night air and to the capacious ears of Mr. Ackerman, who, supposing that they issued from a Mexican dance house, expressed the belief that they must be having a gay time, and manifested an impatience to be off and become a participant in the fun. The party, composed of Mr. Meyberg of Los Angeles, Isidore Lievre, of San Francisco, two Anaheim gentlemen and the festive Ackerman started off in the direction of the "fandango." To reach the place they had to pass through a narrow, dark street, bordered with willow; and just as the darkest and loneliest part of the thoroughfare had been reached three Mexicans (?) sprang up with drawn knives and revolvers, and made a demand in Spanish for the money of the party, accompanying the demand with bloodthirsty threats. With yells of terror the party broke and scattered in all directions, Mr. Ackerman outstripping the others in the race for safety. He reached the Planters' Hotel in an exhausted condition, pale as a ghost, and unable to utter a word. When he became able to ejaculate that he and his friends had been robbed, and that he had seen his friend Lievre shot down in cold blood, the crowd at the hotel, (who were not in the secret) sallied forth to the rescue, but despite their entreaties to Ackerman to accompany them he positively refused. Presently the others of the party came straggling into the hotel, each with a horrible tale and minus their jewelry and money. It seemed from their stories that Ackerman was the only one who escaped being abused and robbed, and they manifested a proper sense of indignation at his failure to assist them in overcoming the robbers. But he was too thoroughly frightened to care for their reproaches, his chief anxiety being to get away from Anaheim as speedily as possible. But here the officer stepped in and informed him that he must stay and give testimony before a Justice on the following morning. In this dilemma he consulted his friends, and they advised him to win over the official by sundry drinks, which they explained, would be the most effective way of accomplishing his purpose. He greased the wheels of Justice to such good purpose that he was permitted to depart on the train on Wednesday morning; and to a friend to whom he was recounting his terrible experience of the night previous, his last words were: "But my legs saved me that time!"

An Interesting Budget of News from the Silver Mines. Editor GARNETZ—We were at Silverado on Saturday to attend the annual meeting for election of District Recorder. In general appearance the town has not improved since last fall. But little work has been done at any of the mines. The Blue Light Company has prosecuted work upon two tunnels, with six men employed, until about the first of February, when all work was suspended. We learned that this Company is endeavoring to consummate arrangements with San Francisco parties for the erection of reduction works, two experts in the interest of those parties having visited and inspected the mine during the past month. Morgan & Mills have continued work during the entire winter on the Mountain Lode, and are sanguine of having developed a good paying ledge carrying both silver and gold. The mill enterprise of Capt. John L. Bray, of San Francisco, has not been consummated according to the original contract, which called for the completion of a ten-stamp mill on or before March 1st. The failure is reported to be caused by the illness of Captain Bray and the death of his partner. Advices from Captain Bray state that he now has arrangements completed for the fulfillment of the contract, with an extension of time. Sixty days further time is asked, which the interested parties will no doubt grant. Considerable interest has been manifested in the election of Recorder. For weeks strong efforts have been made for a full representation of mine owners, and canvassing for proxies by the friends of the two candidates has been thoroughly prosecuted. The annual meeting was called to order at two o'clock P.M. by the appointment of Mr. Andrew Mills as temporary Chairman and G. E. Shinn as temporary Secretary. The Chairman announced nominations for permanent officers to be in order, when Cash Harvey and Andrew Mills were nominated for permanent Chairman, and T. T. Hill and G. E. Shinn for permanent Secretary. The Chairman appointed Jno. C. Hill, Chas. Morgan and Henry Cassida tellers, and the meeting proceeded to ballot for permanent officers, which resulted in the election of Cash Harvey. Orange Hems. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. In this section no more rain is anticipated and our citizens are taking advantage of the cheap water rates, by flooding their ranches. The abundant supply of water from our manja is appreciated by the people of Orange as is evident by the volume daily dispensed by our gentlemanly san jero. The common schools of Orange were opened on Monday March 24, under the most favorable auspices. The Teachers are all favorites with their scholars and are doing a good work in the cause of popular education. Mr. J. W. Anderson has just finished setting to orange a ten-acre ranch about one and a half miles northeast of town, on which he proposes ultimately to erect his home. Keep it before the people that a good saddle and harness maker is much needed in Orange and that such a one would not fail to do well. The fair of the Methodist society on Wednesday evening for the benefit of Rev. Mr. Bovard was a success. The cash receipts amounted to $49, which sum was presented to the pastor at the close of the evening. The attendance at the festival was large and all seemed to enjoy themselves. Mr. and Mrs. Bovard were made the recipients of many presents aside from the cash receipts of the evening. As a testimonial of the love and esteem of the people for an honest, worthy, upright pastor, the entertainment speaks well, for the "fair" was patronized by the best citizens of Orange, without reference to religious differences of opinion or sectarian prejudice. I am happy to be able to say that the vacation granted Mr. Bovard has been thus far attended with gratifying results. His health is much improved and his physician expresses himself hopefully for a life of usefulness in the grand career upon which his young friend has so recently entered. Triumph of Science. Chemistry never achieved a more decided triumph than in the production of SOZO-DONT, which is a botanical preparation of wondrous efficacy in preserving and beautifying the teeth, reaching them from decay, and rendering them white as alabaster. It is a toilet luxury of which all should avail themselves. The unpleasant odor communicated to the breath by catarrh, bad teeth, etc., is entirely obviated by this fragrant and salutary antiseptic of which one bottle lasts a long time. Druggists and perfumers sell it. NOTICE. ANAHEIM, AUG. 15th, 1878. WE TAKE THIS MEANS OF INFORMING OUR CUSTOMERS AND THE PUBLIC GENERALLY, THAT FROM THIS DATE WE WILL SELL LUMBER AND MERCHANDISE STRICTLY FOR CASH AS IT LEAVES OUR YARDS AND MILLS. WE ARE LED TO DO THIS FOR THE REASON THAT WE ALREADY HAVE MANY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS DUE US, AND ARE NOT WILLING THAT THE AMOUNT SHOULD BE INCREASED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. WE THEREFORE HAVE ALSO CONCLUDED TO REDUCE OUR CASH PRICES FOR LUMBER FROM $2 TO Santiago City Items. CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. The bee-keepers' picnic on the 1st instant was not as largely attended as it should have been, and those absent missed not only an interesting meeting, but an instructive one. Cans, cases, barrels and kegs were duly discussed. Nothing definite was decided upon, and the meeting adjourned to meet on the 22d of March at the bee ranch of Mr. Matthews, in Live Oak Canyon, a tributary of the Trabuce. It would be well for your resident coopers to send a sample 25 gallon barrel to the meeting, together with the lowest price they can be furnished for by the thousand. Should this prove a favorable season, the annual meeting was called to order at two o'clock P.M. by the appointment of Mr. Andrew Mills as temporary Chairman and G. E. Shinn as temporary Secretary. The Chairman announced nominations for permanent officers to be in order, when Cash Harvey and Andrew Mills were nominated for permanent Chairman, and T. T. Hill and G. E. Shinn for permanent Secretary. The Chairman appointed Jno. C. Hill, Chas. Morgan and Henry Casada tellers, and the meeting proceeded to ballot for permanent officers, which resulted in the election of Cash Harvey for Chairman and T. T. Hill for Secretary by a majority of 47 votes. Mr. Harvey then took the chair and appointed E. V. Ruger, Thomas Carty and F. M. Neel tellers to receive ballots for Recorder. While the voting was proceeding, a number withdrew to a vacant building, organized a meeting, voted an amendment to the District laws, opened polls for ballots, and proceeded with an election for Recorder on their own account. At the regularly organized meeting Mr. P. A. Clark, the present Recorder, received one hundred and thirty-seven votes, and Mr. C. G. Gillett received two votes. A certificate of election was accordingly issued to Mr. Clark. After a careful examination of the situation, we are more than ever impressed with the fact that valuable mines have been found in this District, that many more will doubtless be discovered; but the great majority of claims which were located last Summer have been or will be abandoned. The men who are now giving attention to the District are men of means, who will without a doubt secure a valuable return for their investment of capital. To us, the future of Silverado looks more flattering to-day than it did last autumn, when the foundation for real success was not so apparent and was based upon prospects. We were shown a certificate of thirty-three assays made by Mr. P. A. Clark of samples from seventeen different-mines, ranging from a trace to $958 19 silver per ton. The average of the whole number was $56 07 silver per ton. Eight of these samples showing but a trace, the average of the pay ores would be increased to $74 03 per ton, which we consider to be a very favorable representation of the value of Silverado mines. We were also shown a brick of bullion weighing about one pound smelted from two pounds of ore. This bullion assayed $364 43 per ton, and was, we understand, shipped by H. S. Knapp to New York city.

CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE. The bee-keepers' picnic on the 1st instant was not as largely attended as it should have been, and those absent missed not only an interesting meeting, but an instructive one. Cans, cases, barrels and kegs were duly discussed. Nothing definite was decided upon, and the meeting adjourned to meet on the 22d of March at the bee ranch of Mr. Matthews, in Live Oak Canyon, attributary of the Trabuco. It would be well for your resident coopers to send a sample 25 gallon barrel to the meeting, together with the lowest price they can be furnished for by the thousand. Should this prove a favorable season, the sweetness furnished by the mountains will really astonish anyone that has not given the subject much thought. A rough estimate, and we will make it small, is about as follows: In the Trabuco, there are 22 bee keepers, representing 2260 colonies of bees; in the Santiago, 10 bee keepers, with about 1400 colonies; while in the Madera canyon there are about 1700 colonies, making a total of 5360 colonies averaging one hundred pounds each, equals 536,000 pounds of honey, requiring the use of 1786 barrels of 25 gallons each, calling for an outlay of $2,679, if they can be made for $1.50 each, and the bee keepers think it possible. Thus it will be seen that apiculture is becoming an industry of no small magnitude and bids fair to advertise Los Angeles county abroad as well as its semi-tropical fruits, coal and silver mines, etc. The miners begin to make their appearance; evidently they expect no more rain, or else they intend standing off what may yet come. Messrs. Buckingham & Co. have made arrangements with Mr. Barrett to begin work this week. Their last assay was $24 silver and six dollars gold. They will begin running a tunnel. The Mint Mining Company have sent to the city for powder, fuse, etc., and from the amount ordered they intend making a hole in the earth during the season. There is a party already in Poor Man's Canyon running a drift on a coal prospect. They are sanguine of striking a rich vein. Everything indicates a lively camp the coming season. Mr. Lane disposed of an interest in the Great Falls Mine recently for $50 cash and $450 when it is got out of the mine. This appears small for an interest in a mine, but then the interest was small and it shows conclusively that the purchaser had faith, as the mine had not yet been developed. Without more rain, we are informed, the honey crop in this district will hardly be one half. Cyclopedia of Literature. The new eight volume Acme Edition of Chambers's Cyclopedia of English Literature is meeting with the largest sale which has probably ever been given to a work having only high literary merit and nothing of the sensational. A second edition of 5,000 copies of volume 1 is announced as nearly all sold within one month after issue of the first edition. Volume 2, just ready gives the history and epitome of our literature, from the "golden age" of Queen Elizabeth to 1700, giving in its 416 beautiful pages biographies of and choice selections from the writings of all noted authors of that period, among which are Lord Bacon, Sir Walter Raleigh, Burton, Bishop Hall, John Knox, Milton, Dryden, Jeremy Taylor, and others. The work is of such well-known excellence that every person of literary taste possesses or desires to possess some edition of it. This edition is complete in eight handy volumes, excellent in typography, paper and binding, revised to date, and sold at prices so low, that a common question which the publishers have to answer is, "whether the price is for each volume or for the entire work?" It is sold only to subscribers direct, the large discount usually given to dealers and agents, being allowed to the subscriber instead. The publishers make special inducements to early purchasers, the eight volumes complete being sent prepaid, to those who subscribe before March 15th, in paper, $2 50; in cloth, $3 50; or in half morocco, gift top, $5. Specimen pages sent free on request, or a specimen volume for examination, with privilege of purchase of the remainder, for nominal prices: In paper, 20 cents; cloth, 35 cents; half morocco, gift top, 50 cents.
