WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY APRIL 24, 1880 The Gazette goes to press every Friday afternoon and is delivered to subscribers on the following morning. All communications must reach this office on Thursday night at latest, in order to insure publication on the day following. Advertisements received up to noon on Fridays. Kleinigkeiten. Handsomely printed Bill-heads and Letter-heads, for all kinds of business, at the Gazette office. N. C. Carter, of San Gabriel, has received the appointment of Census Enumerator for this County. The schedule of the Pacific Coast Steamship Company, for April, May and June, is published this morning. Mrs. Hecht of San Francisco is visiting Anaheim as the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Dreyfus. The Fairview school has closed for the regular summer vacation. The Anaheim schools will not close for six weeks yet. An election for school trustees will be held at the school house on the first Monday in May, the term of Mr. Rimpan expiring at that time. We learn that a party of twenty people have gone to Laguna beach. It is to be hoped that these pioneer excursionists won't catch cold. The Alden Fruit Dryer in Los Angeles is being put in order, and the proprietor, Mr. Davis, intends to begin drying fruit and vegetables without delay. The schooner Stranger arrived at Anaheim Landing on Monday with 160,000 feet of lumber for A. Guy Smith & Co. She will carry back to San Francisco a cargo of grain. An assessment of fifty cents per share has been levied by the Anaheim Water Co. The assessment becomes delinquent on May Readers of Jules Verne's novel, "Around the World in Eighty Days," will remember that part of the story where a locomotive is made to jump the gap in a broken bridge by running at a high rate of speed. This, no doubt, has been always considered a Munchausen story, but it was verified on Thursday night when Mr. Pierce's horse ran away with his buggy and with that gentleman seated in it. The horse attempted, in the first instance, to run, and in the endeavor to rein him up one of the lines broke, and away went the horse and buggy in good earnest. At the ditch-crossing at the corner of Lemon and Second North streets, instead of taking the bridge as a well-intentioned, sober animal would do, he made a flying leap across the gate-frame to the west of the bridge, clearing it in one bound, and going with such momentum that the buggy jumped the gap from one side of the frame to the other without descending into the ditch. The width of the ditch at that point is about ten feet, and yesterday morning the tracks of the wheels and the foot-prints of the animal were plainly perceptible on either side, showing that the leap was in reality a flying one. Fortunately, with the exception of a sprung axle there was no damage done. The charitable entertainment at Kroger's Hall on Tuesday evening was not as well attended as was expected and hoped by the originators of the enterprise, but there was no disappointment for the audience. The music was pronounced to be the finest listened to in Anaheim for a long time. The ladies who so kindly lent their talents for the occasion were warmly received, and they acquitted themselves admirably. The songs of Mrs. Lawrence, Mrs. Rice and Miss Chase were brilliant efforts and highly applauded. Mrs. Lewis, with her usual good taste, favored the audience with an excellent recitation. "Box and Cox" was pronounced to be the hit of the season. A large number remained after the entertainment was concluded, and the dance which succeeded was kept up with unflagging enjoyment until a late hour. The Herald contains a notice from Assecor Venable, calling the attention of landowners, owning tracts larger than 640 acres, to rule 39, adopted by the State Board of Equalization. The rule is in reference to The Alden Fruit Dryer in Los Angeles is being put in order, and the proprietor, Mr. Davis, intends to begin drying fruit and vegetables without delay. The schooner Stranger arrived at Anaheim Landing on Monday with 160,000 feet of lumber for A. Guy Smith & Co. She will carry back to San Francisco a cargo of grain. An assessment of fifty cents per share has been levied by the Anaheim Water Co. The assessment becomes delinquent on May 17th. St. John, formerly of the Planters' Hotel, and Elwin Ferguson are compositors on the San Francisco Chronicle and E. F. Cahill is a member of its reportorial staff. Copies of the report on irrigation by the State Engineer have been received by Geo. C. Knox for distribution. Anyone interested in the subject can obtain a copy by calling on him. A meeting of citizens was to be held at Kroeger's Hall last evening to make nominations for town officers. As we go to press in the afternoon we are unable to give the result of the meeting. The Los Angeles Herald laments the fact that Senator West, the great Tribune (self-styled) of Los Angeles county, voted for the "Mining Debris" steal. What could you expect, Bro. Lynch? He is not even a good Republican. The San Francisco Bulletin, speaking editorially of the great good which results from local horticultural societies, says that "Vinicultural Societies, such as that of Anaheim, are indispensable in the vineyard regions." Judge Sepulveda paid a hurried visit here on Tuesday, returning to town by the next morning's train. The occasion of the visit was the renunciation by him of "the devil and all his works" in behalf of his god-child, Miss Alice Kirby. Mrs. Flora Brown returned on Monday from a visit to Tombstone, Arizona Territory, so named (as Tom Fitch explains) from its being "a tombstone over the grave of poverty, and a monument over the remains of insolvency." Mrs. Brown confirms the report of good times in that part of the Territory which she visited. Attention is called to the advertisement of Mr. Chas. Wagner. The stock bred by that gentleman has acquired such a reputation in years past, that a great deal of it was sold this year before he had an opportunity to advertise. The remaining stock ought to be inspected by would-be purchasers. About 12 o'clock on Monday night the College at Downey was burned down. The building was a two-story frame and was an attractive and conspicuous structure. It had been unoccupied for some time, and the fire was undoubtedly the work of an incendiary. The building (which was owned by Mr. Gibberson) were filed in the County Recorder's office one day during the week, conveying certain property to Wm. Wolfskill. The deeds were written in Spanish and were variously dated from 1836 to 1845. Our readers will regret to learn of a painful accident which happened to Mr. A. Merrifield, who was telegraph operator in Anaheim a short time ago. He was working as brakeman on the railroad, and while coupling cars at Tehachepi on Wednesday his right hand was caught between the couplings and the thumb and two forefingers cut clean off. He was sent to the railroad company's hospital at Sacramento. We hope that no serious complications will result from the terrible wound. Work has been renewed upon several of the Silverado mines. The Phoenix is now running down on an incline and working three shafts night and day. The owners of the Grayback have placed at work quite a large force and intend making a ten-strike this summer. Several other mines are hard at work developing their prospects and are sanguine that the summer's labor will establish the reputation of Silverado as a paying camp. Yesterday morning a little girl named Francisca Signes, aged five years, while playing with a shovel at the residence of her parents, on Commercial street, upset a kettle of boiling water, the contents scalding her head to foot. The little girl suffers excruciatingly, her limbs being so drawn up by the pain that her parents have been unable to straighten them since the accident. Grave doubts are entertained of her recovery. We had a call yesterday from Mr. J.W. Bixby of Los Alamitos. He has just finished shearing the sheep on that ranch, having had forty Indians at work until a few days ago. Mr. Bixby, in common with other woolgrowers, is not pleased with the decided change for the worse in the wool market, but hopes for a reaction soon.

The building was a two-story frame and was an attractive and conspicuous structure. It had been unoccupied for some time, and the fire was undoubtedly the work of an incendiary. The building (which was owned by Mr. Giberson of Westminster,) was valued at $13,000; insured for $7,000. By a late decision of the Post-office Department, men in business can save money by having statements and billheads printed. Such printed bills or statements of account can be sent through the mails, if the envelopes are left open, for one cent; while a written bill or one made on paper not printed on costs three cents. Two cents saved will much more than pay the cost of printing, and consequently merchants and business men lose money by not having such printing done. Billheads printed at the GAZETTE office for from $5 upwards, per thousand. S. R. Hoyle, the defaulting Tax Collector of Atlanta, Georgia, who has been in custody for some time at Los Angeles, shot and killed himself in his cell on Tuesday night. It seems that every legal attempt had been made by Hoyle's attorneys to secure the release of their client, but every point had been decided against them and he was about to be taken back to Georgia to stand his trial for embezzling the public funds. Rather than return to his native place in disgrace, he committed suicide. At the time the deed was done, a Deputy Sheriff was in the cell with Hoyle, an impression having gained credence that he would attempt to escape from the jail. How he obtained the pistol is not known. Ladies, Call around to Mrs. Flora Brown's and see the large, new, handsome stock of spring goods just received.

Heavy and serious rain storms have prevailed in the northern and central parts of the State during the week and a great deal of damage has been done to growing crops. It is impossible at the present time to estimate the extent of the disaster, but that it is great and widespread is evident from the reports at hand. The Sacramento river was so high on Wednesday that fears were entertained for the safety of Sacramento and Marysville, but the danger was passed. Roads are impassable; bridges have been carried away; creeks burst their banks and done great damage; and several lives were lost by drowning. Southern California has escaped the furious onslaught of the elements. Some grain has been lodged by the late rains, but it is insignificant compared with the losses which have been sustained by agriculturists in the northern part of the State. There is no reason to believe that our oft-repeated prediction of large and bountiful crops will fail of realization. Another week in the most critical period of the year has passed and the buds and blossoms on vines and trees are unscathed. Last Sunday morning was the only time the thermometer reached the freezing point, but happily the frost was so light that it left no damaging reminder of its visit. Some people think, however, that the tender shoots of the young vines would have been injured had not smoke been used as a protection. It is just as well that this frost happened, as it gave our vineyardists an opportunity to test the efficacy of the smoke preventive and learn the best manner of applying it. It was demonstrated that coal tar, carried about in pans such as have been described in the Gazette, was a much superior preventive than the stationary piles of weeds and cuttings. The latter become dry, and when lighted emit a smoke so light that with the least breath of wind it rises up and is dispersed. The smoke from the coal tar, on the contrary, is heavy and settles down among the vines, raising the temperature of the soil and covering the vines with a dark mantle which shields the tender buds from the sharp rays of the morning sun. By using the pans, the tar can be carried to any New Saloon. Mr. R. MENZEL Will open the cellar in Kroeger’s Block on Monday evening with a choice stock of liquors and cigars.

By using the pans, the tar can be carried to any point, a convenience which will be appreciated when any wind is blowing. Sixty of these pans filled with tar will afford protection to a twenty-acre vineyard. The rainfall in town since our last report amounts to 48, making the total for the season 13.86 inches. At Orangethorpe (Mr. Saxton's measurement) the total rainfall for the season is 14.3-8 inches. The celebration of the 61st anniversary of Odd Fellows on Monday, April 26th, makes the following brief history of the Order pertinent at this time: In 1818, a mechanic from London, by the name of Thomas Wilde, emigrated to Baltimore, Maryland, April 26th, 1819, Washington Lodge No. 1 was formed, with five members, Wildey as N.G. After the Order increased, a dispensation was granted by the Mother Order (the Manchester Unity), giving it separate jurisdiction in the United States. In 1842, the Order here separated from the English Order, declared itself entirely "Independent," and adopted a new work and ritual, a prominent feature of which was abolishing the practice of allowing drinking of liquors in lodge-regions. The American Order of Independent Old Fellows really commenced existence September, 1842. The "work" now used was adopted in 1845. Its progress has been rapid, practical and beneficial. Full statistics are only accessible up to January 1st, 1879. At that date there were 50 Grand Lodges, 39 Grand Encampments, 6,975 Lodges, 1,863 Encampments, 442,291 Lodge members, 82,408 Encampment members. Total receipts for 1878, $4,266,986.52; total relief for year, $1,740.405.68. The previous year had been marked with financial depression, and showed a loss of 5,728 members, it being the first year for a decade that had not shown a gain. The years 1879 and 1880 will show some improvement. From 1830 to 1878, inclusive—forty-nine years—the following items are official: Initiations, 1,094,965; members relieved, 859,126; widowed families relieved, 115,127; members deceased, 81,643; total relief, $27,468,286.36. Membership January 1st, 1879, 450,238. Deaths for year, 4,368—less than one per cent. Age of Order at date, 60 years. A most ingenious system of chutes is to be constructed by the Steamship Company at its wharf on San Pedro-point. As all of our readers are aware who have ever visited the place, there is a bluff of considerable altitude just back of the wharf site. Ten feet of earth will be removed from the top of this bluff or plateau, back a distance of fifty feet from the edge and here the receiving warehouse will be located. Teams with their loads of grain will be driven on top of the plateau, and as the floor of the warehouse will be ten feet below the level of the road it is easy to see that the grain may be sent down in a chute for storage and the handling thus greatly facilitated. On a A most ingenious system of chutes is to be constructed by the Steamship Company at its wharf on San Pedro point. As all of our readers are aware who have ever visited the place, there is a bluff of considerable altitude just back of the wharf site. Ten feet of earth will be removed from the top of this bluff or plateau, back a distance of fifty feet from the edge and here the receiving warehouse will be located. Teams with their loads of grain will be driven on top of the plateau, and as the floor of the warehouse will be ten feet below the level of the road it is easy to see that the grain may be sent down in a chute for storage and the handling thus greatly facilitated. On a plateau still lower there will be another warehouse, receiving its grain by a chute from the upper or storage warehouse. From the second warehouse it will be dispatched through still another chute to the deck of the vessel in the channel. By this contrivance, the force of gravitation being taken advantage of to its fullest extent, two men in the intermediate warehouse may send down the grain as fast as ten can store it in the ship's hold. Had every sack to be picked up by main force and carried aboard, thirty or more men would be required to perform the same labor. — Express.
