WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY DECEMBER 3, 1881 Kleinigkeiten. Mr. J. W. Anderson has been appointed a Notary Public, to reside at Orange. The Board of Town Trustees will hold their regular monthly meeting on Wednesday. The office of the P. C. S. S. Co. in Los Angeles has been removed to No. 5 Commercial Street. The rainfall on Wednesday and Thursday night amounted to nine-hundredths. The ground took it all in. The Westminster friends of W. J. House may be glad to know he is now part proprietor of a Canadian newspaper, The Welland Telegraph. An effort, which promises to be successful, is being made by Mr. D. S. Van Slyke to organize a Legion of Honor in Anaheim—a popular insurance organization. The water cases are being argued in Los Angeles before Judge McNealy, of San Diego county. It is not probable that the case will be submitted before Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. Only this month remains in which to pay taxes, without having a percentage for delinquency added. The Bank of Anaheim collects the town taxes, and will also attend to the payment of county taxes if requested. The insurance on the school house was awarded to the Phoenix and California companies represented by Messrs. Rimpau and SPECIAL Mr. P. Pellegrin co-invoice of silverware has received for the articles are of the most material and before selecting examine this stock. Mr. G. H.

The Bank of Anaheim collects the town taxes, and will also attend to the payment of county taxes if requested. The insurance on the school house was awarded to the Phoenix and California companies, represented by Messrs. Rimpau and Scott, respectively, for the term of three years at 2½ per cent premium. Rails are being delivered directly into the cars at Timim's Point in Wilmington harbor. The treaty work extension of the Southern Pacific at that point now makes the connection between ship and rail. The City Council of Los Angeles two weeks ago instructed the Chief of Police to enforce the Sunday law. Last week they reconsidered their action, and the consideration of the question of enforcing the law was indefinitely postponed. The Los Angeles Daily Times is the name of a new morning paper soon to be issued at the county seat. Its editor will be Nathan Cole Jr., and the business department will be conducted by Mr. Thomas Gardiner. The San Luis Rey Star says: "Mr. Meyers of this place made us a present last Saturday of a sweet potato which weighed 8 pounds, which he found among others nearly as large in a lot he had bought at Centralia, from the ranch of Mr. J. C. Hill of that place. The potato was shaped like a ball." The Farmers' Ditch Company, organized for the purpose of bringing water into Orangethorpe District, have finished their ditch, and water has been running in it for several days. The Fairview ditch has also been put in good order, so that winter irrigation will be practiced on a grander scale this season than ever before. The Fairview ditch carries water from the river; the Orangethorpe ditch gets its supply from the Anaheim Water Company. Two men who went up to the Santiago Gold and Silver Company's mine the other day, with a view to bidding for a contract to run a tunnel in the mine, found upon arriving at the locality that the house belonging to the company had been destroyed by fire, together with the tools and bedding contained in it. The fire was undoubtedly the work of an incendiary, as there was nothing of an inflammable nature in the house, and it was evident that the flames had been started inside the structure. In these calculations, we have assumed that only the lands now covered by the Company's stock will be irrigated. But there would be no incentive to expend the large sum of money required to develop this enormous amount of water, unless there were good reasons to believe that at least four thousand shares of stock, representing four thousand acres of land, would ultimately be issued. With the system above outlined fully completed, there will be enough water to irrigate 8,000 acres. We predict that in less than five years, there will be fully eight thousand acres of orchard and vineyard watered from the immense storehouse which will be utilized through the enterprise of the Anaheim Water Company? The closing paragraph of Engineer Miller's report reads: "I sincerely congratulate the 'people of Anaheim in having, when completed, the best water system in Southern 'California.'" The following real estate transactions occurred during the week: B-F Seibert to C Wille—Part of town lot 13, Anaheim; $100. Allen Lloyd to Edward Schubert—lot 63 in Vineyard lot E-5, Anaheim; $500. William M. Worcester to M. B. Cook—WJ of NEJ of SE Sec. 32, T 4 S, R 10 W; $300. L F. Lewis to J. K. Tuffree—1 acre in Boege's Addition to Anaheim; $850. Alfred Robinson, Trustee, to Mrs. Margaret J. Miller—43.60 acres in NEJ of NEJ Sec. 18, and NWJ of NEJ Sec. 17, T 4 S. Two men who went up to the Santiago Gold and Silver Company's mine the other day, with a view to bidding for a contract to run a tunnel in the mine, found upon arriving at the locality that the house belonging to the company had been destroyed by fire, together with the tools and bedding contained in it. The fire was undoubtedly the work of an incendiary, as there was nothing of an inflammable nature in the house, and it was evident that the flames had been started inside the structure. The jury in the Gutman forgery case, tried in Los Angeles during the week, did not allow themselves to be bamboozled by the technicality upon which the defense relied for acquittal. Gutman was charged with forging the name of L. J. Rose to a check, but it was discovered that he had by mistake written the name L. H. Rose. No such name was to be found upon the register, and the question was consequently argued as to whether a man could be convicted of forgery when a fictitious name was forged. The jury decided that he was guilty, and he was sent to prison for two years. The Anaheim Hotel was formally opened on Wednesday evening, and the house was crowded with friends of Mr. Gwin, who came to give his enterprise a fitting "send-off." A most magnificent lunch was spread for their entertainment, to which full justice was done, and it was unanimously voted that the new hotel had a cook who was an artist in his profession. The band gave a serenade during the evening, and mirth and jollity reigned supreme until the last guest departed. The appointments of the hotel are new in every detail, and it begins its career under most auspicious circumstances. If strict attention to business and uniform courtesy to guests will insure success, there is no doubt of Mr. Gwin's future prosperity. "The Life, Speeches and Public Services of James A. Garfield" is the attractive title of a book for which Mr. A. D. Lassall is canvassing. It is printed in large type, contains several illustrations and is sold for the low price of $1 50 and $2, according to style of binding. Everyone should have a copy. The following real estate transactions occurred during the week: B.F. Seibert to C Wille—Part of town lot 13, Anaheim; $100. Allen Lloyd to Edward Schubert—lot 63 in Vineyard lot E-5, Anaheim; $500. William M. Worcester to M. B. Cook—W/ of NE/ of SE/ Sec. 32, T 4 S, R 10 W; $300. L. F. Lewis to J. K. Tuffree—1 acre in Boege's Addition to Anaheim; $850. Altred Robinson, Trustee, to Mrs. Margaret J. Miller—43.60 acres in NE/ of NE/ Sec 18, and NW/ of NW/ Sec. 17, T 4 S, R 11 W; $1,526. Thos. Delkin Hinde and Mary, his wife, to Josephine Wagner—6.30 acres in S/ of SE/ of SE/ Sec. 24, Rancho San Juan Cajon de Santa Ana; $1,700. The Secretary of the Cajon Irrigation Company had the execrable taste to write to a neighboring journal saying that he had sent a communication to this paper in reply to "Y's" criticisms, but had no hope that we would publish it—and this, after we had expressly told him that we would give it place. His estimate of our veracity is certainly not flattering, and if we thought that any other person entertained the same opinion on that subject, we would feel greatly humiliated. We have no further newspaper favors to grant to this gentleman. The Santa Ana Valley Bank began business on Thursday, and at the close of the day the volume of business done was far in excess of any expectations which Mr. Seibert had formed. The bank starts out in its career under most auspicious circumstances, and Mr. Seibert's knowledge of the business and personal worth insures its continued and increasing success. The young child of Mr. and Mrs. Dunham died on Monday, and was buried in Los Angeles on the day following. We are pleased to know that Mrs. Dunham is recovering from her long and severe illness, which brought her nearly to death's door, and that she will be able to be out in a few days. The Riverside Press is now printed on a power press, and has been enlarged to 32 columns. SPECIAL MENTION. Mr. P. Pellegrin calls attention to the fine invoice of silverware and jewelry which he has received for the holiday trade. These articles are of the most stylish description, and before selecting your gifts you should examine this stock. Mr. G. H. Kellogg, whose business with the people of this section has increased very materially during the year, has now his office at 203 Sacramento St., San Francisco. He will promptly attend to all consignments sent to him. A bargain is offered by Mr. H. Werder, who desires to sell some of the buildings on lot 33. The American Cash Store is to the fore with an "ad" big enough to attract attention and containing statements startling enough to rivet attention. It contains a recipe for happiness, the efficacy of which will doubtless be tested by many of our readers. Those who have wanted Butterick's patterns, and didn't know where to send for them, can have their ignorance dispelled by reading the advertisement of the Misses Brown & Kiger. J. A. Valder's picture store, always attractive, is more so now that it is stocked with holiday goods of an extremely pretty nature. The Browning Bros. have a fine quality of hay which they offer at $12 per ton. Seven hundred dollars is not much for ten acres of land. Yet Mr. Duncanson offers his land at that small figure. —The Herald says! Last Saturday a daughter of Mr. Berry, of the Old Mission, was engaged, with several older persons, in setting fire to corn shucks in a field belonging to her father. Having fired one shuck, she turned to fire another, not noticing her close proximity to that which she had just ignited. In an instant her garments were a flame. Her agonizing cries soon brought to her aid her father and friends. The flames were smothered, but the deadly work had already been done. Notwithstanding the painstaking efforts of Dr. Jones, of Santa The Herald says!

Notwithstanding the painstaking efforts of Dr. Jones, of Santa Ana, who happened to be within call, the girl died yesterday morning." An Eastern capitalist, who missed the Eastern train at Colton one day last week, paid $250 for a special engine to carry him to Yuma, where he overtook the express. LOS ANGELES MARKETS.
