WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY...AUGUST 12, 1881 Kleinigkeiten. There were 29 births in the city of Los Angeles during July—14 males and 25 females. Patrick S. Kelly, a railroad laborer, died near Das Palmas last Thursday from the excessive heat. The Messrs. Duncanson have revised their price list, and offer still greater bargains than ever. There will be a pigeon shooting match to-morrow at Anaheim Landing. The match will positively take place. Mr. Geo. Schirm, the Santa Ana baker, gives notice that he will deliver fresh bread in Anaheim three times a week. The bi-sulphide of carbon, the most efficient exterminator of squirrels and gophers, is advertised by Mr. A. Langenberger. Gov. Perkins has appointed O. W. Childs of Los Angeles a member of the Board of Normal School Trustees, vice C. T. Ryland, resigned. Eugene Ponk, aged 10 years, was run over by an eight-horse wagon in Los Angeles on Wednesday. It is feared he is fatally injured. Mr. and Mrs. Goodale of Garden Grove lost their only child on Wednesday from diphtheria. Their many friends sympathize with them in their affliction. Peter Charles, a sailor, had his skull broken. A RAILROAD PROJECT. And Some Reflections Thereon. If the enterprise of people was to be judged by the number of schemes proposed instead of by the number consummated, our fellow-citizens of Los Angeles would stand in the front rank. Unfortunately for their reputation in this regard, it must be said that their failure to carry to fruition any of the large enterprises which have been broached of late years, gives little promise that the particular project now being agitated will amount to anything. Meetings will be held, resolutions will be passed, a big splurge will be made, subscription books will be opened—and then the rocket will resolve itself into a stick. Whenever the fever of enterprise reaches the point of attacking the pockets of our neighbors, it acts like other fevers at the critical period—induces perspiration and leads to a cure. In the fertile brain of General J. H. Shields was conceived the project now being discussed. The General is an excellent gentleman, very visionary, very unbusinesslike, very crotchety. His ideas, always originating from a desire to do good to somebody, never appear to reach the point of success. His scheme now is to build a narrow-gauge railroad from Los Angeles to Pasadena up Arroyo Seco, thence through the San Gabriel valley to Duarte and Azusa, thence via Mud Springs to Cucamonga and San Bernardino, thence down through the Riverside settlement to El Rincon, thence through the Santa Ana canyon to Orange, to Newport Landing, thence up the coast via Westminster to Wilmington, thence to South Santa Monica and then to Los Angeles again, making a complete circuit of 150 or 200 miles of road. By dint of much writing and talking he has gotten up an interest in the road, sufficient to get a number of citizens to hold a preliminary meeting. The result of the meeting was that Gen. Shields was appointed to gather statistics of the productions of the country the road would traverse; S. P. Jewett, of Pasadena, was, at the request of Gen. Shields, appointed as an engineer to examine the route and report at a called meeting. Then, Lyons, sent into town and left him here thought a man from no show here, and plied $5, the lightest Extract from Court press. Mr. Lyons was right people are insanely jubilant. The "majestic heimers because we are looking; the lawyer's situation) don't like us able and law-abiding their mill; the news cause the Gazette going and makes as much therefrom; the police cause when we get our agents (nine-tenths of like us because every one and don't want to seel in the lion's den to be pitied than an Anaheimer in Los Angeles. Justice Gannon to solve in his Court that a business man lot of hay which was he engaged Manuel described the location he could, and Arva which he supposed had a stack of hay, and it. He was interrupted by Constable stealing the hay that he had misunderstood and had been hauling. The case was further fact that some partyed themselves from case had not been unwent to press yesterdays. Jose Martinez at Martinez station driving a wagon in and three children, the railroad track nearing the crossing team forward, Marrying stopping the horses where they stood. The imminence of children and jumped Eugene Fonk, aged 10 years, was run over by an eight-horse wagon in Los Angeles on Wednesday. It is feared he is fatally injured. Mr. and Mrs. Goodale of Garden Grove lost their only child on Wednesday from diphtheria. Their many friends sympathize with them in their affliction. Peter Charles, a sailor, had his skull crushed by a piece of coal falling upon him while discharging coal from a lighter at Wilmington. The operation of trepanning was performed, and he will probably recover. Mr. J. H. Steinart, the live business man of Westminster, was in town yesterday. The secret of Mr. Steinart's success in business is that he keeps a large assortment of goods and sells them at a very small profit. One of the twin babies of Mr. Geo. Deaver, of Wilmington, died quite suddenly and unaccountably on Monday morning. Its mother had just taken it from its bath, when it expired in her arms. The advertisement of the excursion to Santa Monica will be found in another column. The inducement of seven hours at the seaside will be sufficient to fill several cars with excursionists. The fare for the round trip has been placed at the low figure of $2.50. A very sad affair happened at Westminster on Thursday. The one-year old child of Mr. Charles Warner managed to get hold of some fly poison and swallowed it, and although everything possible was done to save the little one's life, it died about six hours later. Master W. L. Neill, the thirteen-year-old son of H. Neill of Santa Ana, was thrown from a horse on Monday evening, the horse falling on him and the pommel of the saddle striking him in the abdomen. He was insensible for twenty-four hours afterward, and suffered internal hemorrhage. Camp-meeting is booming in the suburbs of Downey under the auspices of the Christian order, which appears to be a new departure with that denomination. So far the attendance is very large, great interest being manifested. There are a good many campers on the grounds. The visiting public will find a restaurant, hay yard and other accommodations. The Anaheim Fire Co.'s picnic on last Sunday was well attended, considering the excessive heat of the day. One hundred and forty excursionists were present from Los Angeles, which, added to the San Bernardino Landing, thence up the coast via Westminster to Wilmington, thence to South Santa Monica and then to Los Angeles again, making a complete circuit of 150 or 200 miles of road. By dint of much writing and talking he has gotten up an interest in the road, sufficient to get a number of citizens to hold a preliminary meeting. The result of the meeting was that Gen. Shields was appointed to gather statistics of the productions of the country the road would traverse; S. P. Jewett, of Pasadena, was, at the request of Gen. Shields, appointed as an engineer to examine the route and report at a called meeting; and S. C. Evans of Riverside, D. M. Graham of Pasadena and Geo. Rice of Los Angeles were appointed a Finance Committee to solicit funds to pay the expenses of the engineer and statistician. A glorious commencement has been made. And when the engineer reports the route to be practicable and the cost of the road a mere bagatelle; and when the statistician demonstrates, with figures innumerable, that the road will pay at the very least 2 per cent. per month on the money invested, then will come the grand culmination and the project will be thrown aside and some other scheme tackled with the usual desperate energy. But why should a statistician be appointed? Has not one city newspaper already declared that "the road will open up a rich and prosperous country with almost every mile traversed, and ought to make a railroad pay from its incipiency." It is a peculiarity of the Los Angeles Press that they will advocate every scheme that is broached, and solemly adjure the business men to subscribe all the way from one thousand to twenty thousand dollars each in furtherance of the project, and in the adjacent column they will berate the same business men for their incompatible meanness and lack of enterprise in not supporting the newspapers with advertising and subscriptions. If it is really true, as is oft alleged by our respected contemporaries, that the majority of the business men of Los Angeles fail to appreciate the benefits which they derive directly and indirectly, from their local papers, and withhold the patronage of right due to them, then their appeals to those same men to invest their money in the many schemes broached is exceedingly ridiculous. For there is no fact more clearly established than that a community which fails to properly appreciate and support the local Press (especially when it is so ably, so intelligently and so disinterestedly conducted as are the Los Angeles papers) is incapable of reaching the high plane of enterprise required to give the Shield's project the substantial aid necessary to its happy consummation. We hope the road will be built. On Friday of last week, between 5 and 6 o'clock P.M., Mr. J. J. Guinn of Anaheim met with a probably fatal accident in Los Angeles. He was driving down Sixth street in his farm wagon, on his way to the resi- Christian order, which appears to be a new departure with that denomination. So far the attendance is very large, great interest being manifested. There are a good many campers on the grounds. The visiting public will find a restaurant, Bay yard and other accommodations. —Express. —The Anaheim Fire Co’s picnic on last Sunday was well attended, considering the excessive heat of the day. One hundred and forty excursionists were present from Los Angeles, which, added to the San Bernardino delegation and the visitors from the neighboring towns, filled the Tivoli Gardens quite comfortably. No untoward event marred the pleasure of the day. PERSONAL. —F. B. Fanning, late Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue, is now bookkeeper for Gen. Banning at Wilmington. Mr. J. S. Gordon of San Diego passed a few days in town during the week as the guest of Mr. Seibert. Mr. Wm. Rooch arrived from San Francisco last week and will remain here permanently to look after his property. Messrs. J. S. Leeds and S. Denning, of New York, are visiting Silverado. They are stockholders in the Santa Rosa Mining Company. —The Anaheim Public Schools will reopen on Monday. Mr. C. W. Moores is Principal; Mr. Oscar E. Mack, teacher of the second department; Mrs. Hare, third department; Mrs. Alward, fourth department. A change has been made in the manner of making the apportionment of school money, to which the attention of parents is earnestly drawn. Heretofore, the apportionment has been made on the basis of the number of children in the district; hereafter it will be made on the average attendance of scholars. If there are a thousand children of school age in the district, and only one hundred attend school, the State will only apportion money to the district on the basis of one hundred. Parents and others interested in keeping the school open during the full term should remember this fact, and aid in securing to the district all the State money possible by sending the children under their care regularly to school. Regularity in attendance will not only help to increase the school fund, but what is infinitely more important, it will benefit the pupils. Studies pursued with unvarying regularity are much more easily mastered than when interrupted by occasional absences. —On Friday of last week, between 5 and 6 o’clock P.M., Mr. J. J. Guinn of Anaheim met with a probably fatal accident in Los Angeles. He was driving down Sixth street in his farm wagon, on his way to the residence of his brother, when two buggies met in collision near the spot where he was. The noise and commotion frightened his horses and they started to run away. A gentleman who saw the accident told us that one of the traces got loose just as the horses started, and the breast-strap slipped, letting the tongue fall on the ground. In reining the horses, Mr. Guinn fell backward from the seat, striking on his back on the side of the wagon, and then fell to the ground. His spine was fractured and he was severely bruised about the head. He was conveyed to his brother’s house, and four physicians were called in. The day following the accident they placed their patient in a plaster of Paris jacket, so as to render him immovable, and it relieved him from much pain. Two of the physicians hold out a slight hope for his recovery, but say that in that event he will be a cripple for life. The other physician think there is no possible chance of his living. Very great sympathy is felt for Mr. Guinn here, where he has lived for many years, and his misfortune is deeply regretted by all who know him. The latest news we could obtain before going to press is that there is no hope for Mr. Guinn’s recovery, and that in all likelihood he will be dead before this paragraph is read. He is bleeding from the kidneys—a rare precursor of dissolution. —Attention is called to the advertisement of J. C. Bright, of the famous cheap store of Los Angeles. Mr. Bright’s new assortment of goods from the East is unsurpassed. Buy your groceries at Cohen Bros.’ They sell cheaper than anybody else and their stock is new and fresh.* Then, Lyons, an Anaheimer who came into town and left his horse unhitched, said he thought a man from Anaheim would have no show here, and pleaded guilty. He was fined $5, the lightest sum the law allows. Extract from Court report in Los Angeles Express. Mr. Lyons was right. The Los Angeles people are insanely jealous of their Anaheim brethren. The "mashers" don't like Anaheimers because we are all so much better looking; the lawyers (five-sixths of the population) don't like us because we are peaceable and law-abiding and don't carry grist to their mill; the newspapers don't like us because the Gazette gets the county advertising and makes as much as 18 cents a month therefrom; the policemen don't like us because when we get drunk it takes the entire police force to put us in jail; the real estate agents (nine-tenths of the population) don't like us because everybody here is contented and don't want to sell their property. Daniel in the lion's den was a spectacle not more to be pitied than a lone and unprotected Anaheimer in Los Angeles. Justice Gannon had a knotty problem to solve in his Court yesterday. It appears that a business man of this place bought a lot of hay which was stacked in a field, and he engaged Manuel Arvalto to haul it. He described the location of the hay as well as he could, and Arvalto went to the place which he supposed had been indicated, found a stack of hay, and commenced hauling from it. He was interrupted, however, by being arrested by Constable Barham on a charge of stealing the hay. It was then discovered that he had misunderstood his instructions and had been hauling from the wrong field. The case was further complicated by the fact that some party unknown had also helped themselves from the same stack. The case had not been unraveled at the time we went to press yesterday. Jose Martinez was killed on Saturday at Martinez station, near Spadra. He was driving a wagon in which were another man and three children, and attempted to cross the railroad track as the Colton train was nearing the crossing. Instead of urging his team forward, Martinez put on the brake, stopping the horses, which were very gentle, where they stood. The other man, seeing the imminence of the danger, seized the children and jumped out of the rear end of FOR SALE OR RENT.

The underlined call the attention of the public to the advantages offered by ANAHEIM LANDING As a cool resort during the heated summer term. Situated on the edge of the ocean, the cool winds temper the heat of the sun, making the place one of the most delightful resorts in the county. The SHELTERED BAY Affords a safe and pleasant place in which to bathe, and it possesses many other advantages which should comment it to public favor. We have opened a hotel for the accommodation* of visitors and the table is supplied with the best of everything in the market, and on very reasonable terms. A limited number of ROOMS AND COTTAGES Are to let, but as there is a great demand for them, it would be well to engage rooms some time in advance. Parties are constantly going and coming, and applicants for rooms will be accommodated in the order in which their applications are received. Everything which we can do for the amusement and comfort of visitors will be done. ANAHEIM Landing, July 7th, 1881. Delinquent Notice. ANAHEIM WATER COMPANY.

The other man, seeing the imminence of the danger, seized the children and jumped out of the rear end of the wagon. Martinez, who seems to have lost all presence of mind, jumped from the side opposite to the approaching train, but was unable to get out of the way before the locomotive struck the wagon, lifting and hurling it with great force, the wheels, as it descended, striking Martinez on the head and crushing him to the ground. He died in a few hours after the accident. Thermometrical Record. The following is our record for the week ending Wednesday P.M.

WASHINGTON, August 6.—The annual report of Col. Mendell of the Board of U.S. Engineers says of Wilmington harbor improvements: The principal alterations of the past year consisted in dredging for the purpose of widening the channel through the reef which lies west of Deadman's Island. The depth of the channel continues to improve and there is now a good channel over ten feet deep at low water. Mendell says it is quite possible to increase the depth of this channel to 15 or 16 feet at low water by the excavation of the reef and by the extension of jetties. A careful estimate shows the probable cost of these operations to be about $202,000, which could be advantageously expended in two years if appropriations were made. Col. Mendell in his report says that the increase of population in Southern California, and the extension of railroads in Arizona and New Mexico have given increased importance to Wilmington harbor, and there seems to be more reason now for a harbor fifteen feet deep than there was for one ten feet deep at the time the improvements were commenced. Operations for the coming year will be covered by contracts now in force. They consist mainly of placing stone on the jetties. About $39,000 were expended during the past year and about $29,000 remain from the past appropriation available for the coming year's work, which sum is not sufficient to do all that is desirable. Mendell thinks that $650,-000 can be profitably expended during the year ending June 30th, 1883. Delinquent Notice. ANAHEIM WATER COMPANY.
