WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY...AUGUST 28, 1880 The Gazette goes to press every Friday afternoon and is delivered to suburbs 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. ST. MICHAEL'S CHURCH—Services every Sunday morning at 11 o'clock. All are invited to attend Sunday School at 10 o'clock. Kleinigkeiten. Messra, A. Guy Smith & Co. have reduced the price of flour to $2 50 a hundred. Packages for the following persons are at Wells Fargo & Co.'s office: Mrs. H. D. Polhemus, Mrs. Crane and C. H. Zeyn. Two large stacks of flax were burned at El Monte on last Friday. They were the property of Hon. Asa Ellis. The dredger "Goliah" has been brought down from San Francisco to clean out Wilmington harbor. W. T. Slack, of San Gabriel, had a leg broken the other day, while moving a pipe of wine. The petrified limbs of a man and woman were found on Deadman's Island, one day last week. The first shipment of grain from the Pacific Coast Steamship Company's wharf at Wilmington was made on Tuesday. Mr. C. Tustin has gone, or is about to go, to Tombstone, A. T., where he intends to remain for some months. He has promised to send us a few items from the Territory. "No tax on departed spirits" is the heading used by the Chronicle in republishing our item of last week in regard to the tax on brandy. Mr. T. D. Culter, formerly of Westminster, has located at San Carlos Indian Agency, A. T., to which point he wishes the Gazette sent to him. The beet sugarie at Compton did not - The suicidal wave has reached even unto Trabecus canyon. On Sunday last Mary Jane Weekly, wife of Lahan Weekly, a beekeeper residing in the canyon, committed suicide by taking strychnine. It appears that upon sitting down to breakfast on the morning mentioned, Weekly found upon taking his first sip of coffee that it was exceedingly bitter, and he immediately accused his wife of putting poison in it, (a rather remarkable conclusion to jump at.) She denied it, but on pouring out the coffee he found in the bottom of the cup an undiluted white substance which resembled strychnine. Mrs. Weekly in the meantime had drank her coffee. Subsequently Weekly found that his jaws were stiffening and he swallowed some lard and other antidotes, and alarmed some of the neighbors. They arrived at the house before Mrs. Weekly died, but they could not counteract the poison. Before dying she acknowledged that she had taken strychnine and pulled from her bosom a letter, which she gave to one of the neighbors present. This letter charges her husband with undue intimacy with another woman, and it would appear that jealousy was the moving cause of the tragedy. The above facts were developed at an inquest held before Justice Humphreys. Victor Montgomery Esq., who has been up the Trabeco canyon fishing for trout in the creek, found quite a large and flourishing neighborhood in the several canyons which closely join each other in the mountains. There must be at least thirty families scattered about, and Young America is so well represented that a site has been selected to erect a school-house. The business followed by the settlers is, in the main, beekeeping, but the principal and novel occupation of one of the settlers is the manufacture of saddle trees and chairs from maple wood, his stock being supplied by the growth of maple in the mountains. Farming is not neglected; Odessa wheat and other cereals are raised, vegetables are abundant and fruit is equally plentiful. County Clerk Potts has received official notice from the State Board of Equalization that that body proposes to raise the assessment on all property in Los Angeles county, exclusive of improvements thereon, and town and city lots, ten per cent. Hearings on an Mr. C. Tustin has gone, or is about to go, to Tombstone, A. T., where he intends to remain for some months. He has promised to send us a few items from the Territory. "No tax on departed spirits" is the heading used by the Chronicle in republishing our item of last week in regard to the tax on brandy. Mr. T. D. Culter, formerly of Westminster, has located at San Carlos Indian Agency, A. T., to which point he wishes the Gazette sent to him. The beet sugarie at Compton did not start up on Monday as anticipated, ewing to some trifling defect in the machinery. The trouble will be remedied in a few days. E. E. Shaw of Cahuenga was thrown from his wagon by his runaway team a week ago, and suffered such severe injuries that he died on Wednesday night. He was aged 68 years. Autonio Miguels, a Chinaman, has filed with County Clerk Potts his declaration of intention to become a citizen. His object is to secure the right to preempt a public land claim which he has selected. Little George Yocum had three of his fingers quite badly hurt on Sunday last at the Landing. The boat in which he was sitting came in collision with another one, and his hand was caught between them. Mr. A Langenberger is prepared to supply the new text-books required in the public schools. They are much cheaper than the books formerly in use, and are superior in binding, printing and contents. Mr. Hardwicke Browning won the swimming race for men at the Landing on Sunday. Master Charles Higgins won the boys' race, and he was likewise the victor in a second contest for a special premium. An Iowa paper says that Mrs. Hildreth, of Des Moines, committed suicide because her husband wouldn't take her to the circus. As the greatest show on earth will be here soon, the publication of this item may perhaps avert some domestic calamities. The South Santa Monica wharf has been completed. It is 1,010 feet in length, twenty feet in width and extends into twenty-four feet depth of water. There are three thousand sacks of grain at the wharf awaiting shipment. Mr. Menzel, who is a practical baker, says that he has experimented with Odessa flour, and finds that in order to obtain the best results it should be worked more thoroughly than the common flour. With care in this respect, excellent bread can be made from it. The fever mixture and pills advertised in our columns to-day by Dr. Ellis will be found of immense service to people who are forced to go into malarial districts. The medicines have we learn, a high repute in Europe, whence Dr. Ellis obtained them. A great many of our vineyardists are preparing for the anticipated abundant harvest, but the principal and novel occupation of one of the settlers is the manufacture of saddle trees and chairs from maple wood, his stock being supplied by the growth of maple in the mountains. Farming is not neglected; Odessa wheat and other cereals are raised, vegetables are abundant and fruit is equally plentiful. County Clerk Potts has received official notice from the State Board of Equalization that that body proposes to raise the assessment on all property in Los Angeles county, exclusive of improvements thereseon, and town and city lets, ten per cent. Hearings on appeal will be granted at Sacramento, from the date of publication of the order to and including the 20th of September ensuing, from 9 A.M. to 5 P.M. It appears that the State Board have been unable to resist the pressure brought to bear upon them to increase the assessment list of this county, although they at one time professed to be satisfied with the valuations. Under the appropriate head will be found a notice of the death of Charles R. Emery, who resided in this vicinity about a year ago. The circumstances attending his death are sad. He was off on a vacation in company with a friend, and had camped on the banks of a lake. In the evening they rowed in a boat to some distance from shore for the purpose of taking a swim. Mr. Emery had been in the water but a short time when he was heard to call for help, but before his companion could get to him he had disappeared beneath the waters. It is supposed he was attacked with cramps. A young lady—one of a party of campers from San Bernardino—made an attempt at suicide at Anaheim Landing on last Sunday, by swallowing three grains of morphine. A powerful emetic, administered in the nick of time by Mrs. Dr. Higgins, saved the girl's life. She has been in ill health for a number of years, and has been accustomed to the daily use of morphine for a long time. It is supposed that, becoming disheartened by long-continued illness, she endeavored to end her troubles in the manner mentioned. Letters have been received at the Sanatorium from Dr. Fergusson, who is still detained in London on business connected with his late father's estate. The Doctor wishes to offer his best thanks for the continued kind enquiries for his welfare by his many patients and friends, and desires it to be known that he will be in Anaheim among them in a few weeks (D. V.). Wm. Newton, the representative of Mr. J. Yoch, one of the owners of the Black Star coal mine, has taken some men up to the mine and gone to work to put it in shape. Mr. Newton is an expert miner from the coal fields of Pennsylvania, and will develop the mine systematically and thoroughly. It has been determined to sell the large lot of spring wagons at McDermott's shop, and they will be traded off for cash or grain, at very low prices. See the advertisement. The fever mixture and pills advertised in our columns to-day by Dr. Ellis will be found of immense service to people who are forced to go into malarial districts. The medicines have, we learn, a high repute in Europe, whence Dr. Ellis obtained them. A great many of our vineyardists are preparing for the anticipated abundant harvest by extending their wintersheds and laying in a large supply of pipes and tanks. Our local cooper, Mr. C. Wille, is the business man in town. The capacity of his shop has been taxed to the utmost for the past month or two. The report of an eruption in the Temescal range of mountains is confirmed by the Riverside Press, which says that it is witnessed daily by those living in the Temescal valley. The eruption consists of a large jet of vapor and smoke, which rises to a height of more than a hundred feet. There is no external fire, but at night the vapor presents a luminous appearance. Dr. Rives, of Downey City, committed suicide at his home in Downey about daylight on Friday of last week, by taking strychnine. Dr. Rives was the Democratic candidate for Coroner, and at the time of his death was in a condition of delirium caused by excessive drinking. Dr. Rives was a native of the State of Georgia, forty years of age, and leaves a wife and four children. The Doctor had before made attempts at his own life when under the influence of liquor, and this time was successful. Skeleton Eye-Glasses—In great demand. Two dozen pairs, asserted leases, just received at P. Pellegrin's Jewelry Store, Center St., Anaheim. All who inquired for them can now be supplied. A Chance for Bargains! Hats being closed out regardless of cost at Mrs. Flora M. Brown's Millinery Store, Center street, Anaheim. Wm. Newton, the representative of Mr. J. Yoch, one of the owners of the Black Star coal mine, has taken some men up to the mine and gone to work to put it in shape. Mr. Newton is an expert miner from the coal fields of Pennsylvania, and will develop the mine systematically and thoroughly. It has been determined to sell the large lot of spring wagons at McDermott's shop, and they will be traded off for cash or grain, at very low prices. See the advertisement. The owner means business, and those in want of a wagon will not likely meet again with such an opportunity to get a cheap and good one. What many a farmer does not know: That a corn-cob is better than any clothes-brush for cleaning woolen clothes from mud spots and ordinary stains from green plants or weeds. Rub hard and in any direction without reference to the nap. Our regular market report failed to come to hand this week. The latest San Francisco papers show a decline in the price of wheat, which is quoted at $1 35* to $1 42. Feed barley is quoted at 75@80c, Chevalier $1@$1 25. We have received from San Francisco some of the most elegant visiting cards that were ever manufactured. The quantity is limited, and orders should be sent in without delay to the GAZETTE Job Office. The Alden Dryer at Los Angeles was shut down on Wednesday owing to the failure of the volume of peaches required to keep it in full operation. The works will be started up on apples next week. A party of about thirty young people "surprised" Miss Dora Zeyn on Thursday evening, and the result was that the Zeyn mansion was a scene of gayety until far into the night. The affair was one of the social successes of the season. Parties knowing themselves to be indebted to Mrs. Flora M. Brown will please call and1:1) tie their accounts at once. BORN.
