WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY...SEPTEMBER 3, 1881 Kleinigkeiten. A chance to rent a nice little cottage is offered in our advertising columns. The Board of Town Trustees will meet in regular monthly session on Wednesday afternoon. Two thousand acres of fine pasture land on Laguna ranch were burned over during the week. The warehouse at Anaheim Landing is well filled with wool and grain, awaiting shipment to San Francisco. Mr. Barton, of Azusa, was thrown from his wagon on last Saturday. He received severe injuries and one of his legs was broken. The Great Eastern Auction Store has received its Eastern importation of goods, and is now giving greater bargains than ever. Rev. Mr. Robinson will preach in the Presbyterian Church to-morrow morning at 11 o'clock. Subject of the discourse—The Revised Testament. We expected to have a report of the G. A. R. Social at Santa Ana, but it failed to reach here up to the time of our going to press. The Masonic Hall is being painted by Mr. Boege, and a porch is being added to the front of the first story. This will add greatly to the appearance of the building. Mr. James McD. Moffett, whose death is announced today, was at one time a resident of Westminster, and has many acquaintances all over the county. What is wanted to set this country "on its pins," as the saying is, is a good, wet winter. A good demand for all kinds of agricultural products is assured for the next few years. There will be less trouble in selling than in raising. It would be well, however, to bear in mind that this is more of a horticultural than agricultural county, and tillers of the soil should not forget the very patent fact that twenty acres of bearing vines will bring more profit to the owner than two hundred and fifty acres of wheat or barley. If every one who owns 160 acres of land would sell 120 acres and use the money in setting out forty acres of vines, he would in ten years, with ordinary luck and good management, be very well off financially, and would attain that end with less expenditure of physical energy than would have been required of him had he kept his land and seeded it to grain every year. "A scene not down on the bills" occurred at Anaheim Landing on last Sunday. In the afternoon, when the advertised sports were engaging the attention of nearly all the visitors, an alarm was given which caused everyone who heard it to start with apprehension and rush to the beach. Three boys had been seen chasing to a small upturned boat which was being tossed about wildly in the heavy breakers which dashed on the bar, and the announcement of their mishap caused the commotion. A boat, manned by Capt. Wilson, Dr. Fergusson and Des Granges went to the rescue with all possible speed and rescued the boys from their perilous position. Two of the youngest, hardened by a sojourn of several weeks at the Landing, were none the worse for their misadventure, but the third was nearly exhausted and numbed by the buffeting of the waves. Mr. C. E. Taylor, writing from Globe A. T., where he is engaged in a very successful business, says: "The mining interest is getting along very satisfactorily, and I myself am getting along finely. The future of this country is, I believe, immense; but it is slow, owing to the difficulty of communicating with the outside world. For ten long days we did not have a mail, when we are supposed to have a daily one. It is about G. A. R. Social at Santa Ana, but it failed to reach here up to the time of our going to press. The Masonic Hall is being painted by Mr. Boege, and a porch is being added to the front of the first story. This will add greatly to the appearance of the building. Mr. James McD. Moffett, whose death is announced today, was at one time a resident of Westminster, and has many acquaintances all over the county. Mr. J. J. Hill arrived from Tucson on last Sunday in response to a telegram informing him of the serious illness of his wife. She has been improving slowly during the last few days. Seventeen cotton-tails, the same number of qu—road-runners and a rattlesnake comprised the game bagged by Messrs. Leonard and Ferguson during a two hours' hunt the other morning. There will be a special meeting of the Ladies' Aid Society at the residence of Mrs. Benj. Dreyfus on Wednesday, Sept. 7th, at two o'clock P.M. A full attendance of members is requested. Mr. S. B. Smith has kindly consented to act as special reporter of the Gazette at the Horticultural Fair, and all the worthy features of the display will be described by him next week. Mr. W. A. Spalding, whose work on the Express for some years past is proof of his ability as a newspaper man, has given up the profession and purchased a tract of land near San Gabriel. He will plant a vineyard next winter. The new freight steamer Bonita took on her first cargo of grain at Anaheim Landing on Thursday of last week. Capt. Wilson, of the Landing, says she is the hand-somest craft he ever saw, and that she is well-named. The grape buyers of the county have agreed to pay $20 per ton for grapes during the coming vintage. This price will be paid for all kinds of grapes except Muscat—a variety which wine-makers do not care to buy. A man with a big bank account can afford to be eccentric, even to the extreme of using very old and very dirty paper collars on which to write his bank drafts. The Bank of Anaheim has honored more than one such draft. Messrs. Dreyfus & Co. will open the wine-making season on Monday, the Reis- Mr. C. E. Taylor, writing from Globe A.T., where he is engaged in a very successful business, says: "The mining interest is getting along very satisfactorily, and I myself am getting along finely. The future of this country is, I believe, immense; but it is slow, owing to the difficulty of communicating with the outside world. For ten long days we did not have a mail, when we are supposed to have a daily one. It is about 130 miles to the railroad, over a very rough road and a few quite large rivers at present so bad that it is impossible to Ford them; and we had to bribe a boatman to cross with the mails. Give my regards to all friends." Mr. S. H. Slaught, whose endeavors in behalf of the James single track railroad have brought him prominently into notice, is in town. He will try, during his stay here, to work up an interest in favor of a road between here and Anaheim Landing, by way of Garden Grove and Westminster. Such a road, he thinks, could be built for $50,000. As there is every reason to believe that if the road was built it would be connected with by the Riverside people, it would seem as if the project ought to commend itself to the favorable consideration of our people. We learn from Mr. J. Y. Anderson, of Westminster, that the sorghum will be ripe in two or three weeks, and that the work of crushing it will then begin. Mr. A. expects to make about 1200 gallons of syrup from his own cane and as much more from cane grown by his neighbors. If he meets with the success he anticipates, he will go into the business on a very extensive scale next year. Mr. F. A. Gates of Garden Grove will also make syrup this year, and it is said that the apparatus of the Artesia Company has been rented to a gentleman who will work up all the cane he can get. The Mr. Pfeiffer spoken of in the following paragraph from the Shelbyville (Illinois) Democrat, has for a year past been a subscriber to the Gazette, and will doubtless settle in this vicinity: "J. August Pfeiffer and family, of this city, and T. P. Frazer and family, of Windsor, will take leave of their friends in Shelby county, and remove to California about the first of September. We are sorry to lose such excellent citizens as these from Shelby county, but as there is a probability of their health being improved by the change, we cannot blame them for making the change." The ore-roasting furnace, built by the Santiago Gold and Silver Mining Company, was completed a few days ago, and specimens of the metal extracted from the ore have been received. Some of the metal will be on exhibition at the Fair next week. C. N. Wilson, a beekeeper tells the Express that of the bees this year for the flowers of such trees California walnut, blue sumac, manzanita and white wheat, while the usual fags—have been a corn production of nectar specially commendatory gum, from which he saws excellent quality of hops of opinion that bee-feedthe agriculturist for the land for profit and satisfi- Mr. A.

The Bank of Anaheim has honored more than one such draft. Messrs. Dreyfus & Co. will open the wine-making season on Monday, the Reisling and Chasselas grapes being now ripe enough for the press. The Mission grapes are ripening fast, and by the middle of September the vintage will be in full career. Mr. D. E. Miles, whose advertisement will be found in another column, now buys everything in the produce line, paying the highest market price. He has been appointed agent for a firm of sack importers, and is therefore in a position to sell sacks at the very lowest price. In consequence of an intended prolonged visit of Mr. Hollenbeck to the East, he has resigned the position of President of the First National Bank. Mr. E. F. Spence has been elected to fill the vacancy and Mr. W. Lacy as Cashier. No change takes place in the directory or ownership of the bank. "I want," said Mr. Howe of the Garden Grove Store, "to get up an ad that everyone will believe." Thereupon he wrote the one which appears to-day, and to the truth of the statements therein contained he is prepared to solemnly affirm. He goes to San Francisco in October, and must have cash. The Republican County Committee have appointed Hon. R. M. Widney of Los Angeles and A. B. Clark of Orange delegates to the State Division Convention which meets in Los Angeles on the 8th inst. The Democratic County Committee have appointed as delegates Messrs. C. K. Thom of Los Angeles and Victor Montgomery of Anaheim. The ore-roasting furnace, built by the Santiago Gold and Silver Mining Company, was completed a few days ago, and specimens of the metal extracted from the ore have been received. Some of the metal will be on exhibition at the Fair next week. By this roasting process 300 pounds of ore is reduced to fifty pounds of metal. This metal will be sent to San Francisco where the worthless part will be eliminated. The first shipment will be made in a few days. A week or two ago a lady living some distance out of town felt something unpleasant crawling on her hand, and looking hastily, found a centipede stalking leisurely across the back of her hand. An immediate application of ashes and water prevented anything more serious than a painful swelling. A few days subsequently the same lady had the same hand bitten by a scorpion. The same remedy was applied, with the same result. The fact was very convincingly demonstrated at the recent pigeon-shooting match at the Landing that Anaheim can "get away with the pot" in that sport. The highest scores were made by Messrs. F. J. J. Schmidt and E. Dunham, both doing some remarkably fine shooting. Services and prayer for the recovery of President Garfield were held in the Russian Church in San Francisco on Tuesday. Among the dignitaries present were the Russian Consul-General and his Secretary, Nicholas Gray, a former resident of Anaheim. Buy your groceries at Cohen Broa.'

W. HINTON, County School Superintendent. Los Angeles, Aug. 27, 1881. C. N. Wilson, a beekeeper of this county, tells the Express that the sole dependence of the bees this year for sweets has been upon the flowers of such trees and shrubs as the California walnut, blue gum, acacia, willow, sumac, manzanita and upon the wild buckwheat, while the usual feed—white and black sage—have been a complete failure in the production of nectar. He speaks in an especially commendatory manner of the blue gum, from which he says, the bees make an excellent quality of honey. Mr. Wilson is of opinion that bee-feed can be cultivated by the agriculturist for the salvation of his bees and for profit and satisfaction to himself. Mr. A. E. Putney last week finished sinking three artesian wells for Mr. J. Bixby on the Cerritos Rancho, to supply the American Colony with water. One well is 164 feet deep and flows a nine-inch column of water over the top of a seven-inch pipe, the second is 96 feet deep and flows four inches over a seven-inch pipe, and the third (depth not stated) also flows a heavy stream. The water from the three wells combined make a large creek which flows to the ocean. Rev. J. W.
