A GLORIOUS VICTORY. The Celebrated Water Case Decided in Favor of Anaheim. As our readers are aware, the case of the Anaheim Water Company against the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Company (the successors of the Semi-Tropic Water Company) has been decided by Judge McNealey of San Diego in favor of the plaintiffs. The decision is no halting one, but is sweeping and complete, giving to Anaheim all that it claimed. There has never been a case tried in any court in this State where greater interests were involved, and it was an expensive and bitterly-contested legal war. The decision, if we understand it correctly, is in keeping with other decisions rendered in water cases in other counties during the past year or two, and upholds the doctrine of prior appropriation. In this instance, the Court maintains that a community which for a period of twenty years has exercised a continued and uninterrupted right to a given quantity of water, and in the enjoyment of that right had established hundreds of homes and created a flourishing, prosperous community, can not have their water right taken away unceremoniously by any of the specious and fragile pleas put forward by the defendants. If there is a community or corporation in the State that has established a title to the water of a river, that community is Anaheim and that corporation is the Anaheim Water Company; and we are glad and proud to be able to say that their position has been sustained by such an able jurist and lawyer as Judge McNealey. There are two or three months in the year when there is not a sufficiency of water in the river for the needs of the irrigable land on both sides of the river. The volume of water decreed to Anaheim by the Court is amply sufficient for all our needs. We have now no fear on that score; our chief anxiety is now for our neighbors over on the other side. How are they going to struggle along with the small quantity of water that will be left to them after Anaheim takes what it is entitled to? We will tell them. There is one way, and only one, by which feet wide at the top adhere and during all time to dered, adjudged and right and title to said lege be and the same ed accordingly. And it is further odeed, that the said to an injunction for restraining the said Tropic Water Company their attorneys, agents payes from in any waving with plaintiffs' said vert from the said San propriate, use and coarse said stream enough the Anaheim Water Company flowing full at all time year, to its utmost care at the bottom, eight feet and two feet deep, and writ of injunction do not seat of this court. And it is further odeed, that the plaintiff cover of, and from costs and disbursement at [$1,286 95] and therefor. Judgment rendered 1882. W. T. I hereby certify that true and correct copy in the case of Anaheim Semi-Tropic Water Company and that I have careful with the original. In witness whereof my hand and affixed this Court, this 12th day of A. W. H. By A.

Staehli on Saturday found a fine meerschaum cigar holder. The owner can obtain it by calling at this office, giving description, and paying for this notice. Mrs. Clelanda, who was severely burned by the explosion of a can of coal oil while lighting a fire at Florence, on Friday of last week, died on Saturday night from the effects of her injuries. The rainfall for the early part of the week amounted to twenty two hundredths of an inch, and added to the total makes the season's rainfall so far 6.84. Mr. Saxton gives the fall for the week as 1/2 of an inch and for the season 7/3. A strong effort is to be made in Santa Ana to enforce the Sunday law. J. Layman has been arrested for its violation and will have a trial in a day or two. He will be defended by Theo. Lynn Esq. Leland Stanford has received 5,000 cuttings of the Smyrna fig, and will distribute them to the farmers throughout the State. As there will be a demand for them, applications should be sent in at once. Mr. B. McLaughlin, proprietor of the axle-cutting machine, who was to have been here last week, was delayed at Downey until Monday. He will remain here until next Saturday, and can be found at N. H. Mitchell's livery stable. The jury in the case of T. B. Hulse, charged with the murder of F. Reuter, failed to agree upon a verdict and were discharged. They stood six for conviction and six for acquittal. The time for the second trial has not yet been fixed. Death has again entered the household of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Edwards, this time taking from them their son, John Thomas. He died on Tuesday at the parental residence in Los Angeles, and was buried on Thursday in the family burial plot at Santa Ana. A reference to the appropriate column will reveal the fact that there are several happy new fathers in this vicinity. Among the arrivals is Mr. Brewster Alvah Smith, who weighs 8½ pounds and can do everything but talk and walk. His happy parents are to be congratulated. The dead body of an unknown man was found on the railroad track near Mojave Station on Friday morning of last week. The man had evidently been run over by a train, as the body was cut into several pieces, and it is supposed he had been stealing the truck at the same time when he was taken away. There are two or three months in the year when there is not a sufficiency of water in the river for the needs of the irrigable land on both sides of the river. The volume of water decreed to Anaheim by the Court is amply sufficient for all our needs. We have now no fear on that score; our chief anxiety is now for our neighbors over on the other side.

Stop damming the decision and dam the river, and you will get so much water that you will not know what to do with it. Drop law and put your money where it will do some good. At our request, Mr. Scott has furnished the following explanation: EDITOR GAZETTE—Pursuant to your request for something definite as to the status of the suits pending between the Anaheim Water Company et al and the Santa Ana Irrigation Company et al, I take pleasure in herewith being able to furnish you with the full text of the judgment as rendered and recorded in the suit of The-Anaheim Water Company et al vs. The Semi-Tropic Water Company et al, instituted in June, 1877. In this judgment, which fully explains itself, the people of Anaheim have gained a glorious victory, and whatever may be the result of a further prosecution of this action in a higher Court, the ultimatum of the controversy will be a full vindication of the principles enunciated in this decree. As yet, findings and judgment in the case of the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Company vs. Anaheim Water Company and Cajon Company, have not been filed. Hence we are at some loss to know precisely the force and weight of the decision. This much is fully outlined by the learned Judge, that the findings and judgment in this case are to be entirely subordinate to, and not in conflict with, the judgment first herein referred to. The judgment in this case will, so far as we are now able to understand it, in no way affect the interests of the Anaheim people in obtaining from the river at any point thereon, up to Cajon crossing, our ditch full of water, if it takes the whole thereof. I promise you the judgment in this case so soon as filed, that our people may fully understand their rights in the premises. The injunction referred to in the judgment will be served on defendants at once. Very truly, &c., R. W. Scott, Counsel for Plaintiffs. The Decision.

The man had evidently been run over by a train, as the body was cut into several pieces, and it is supposed he had been stealing a ride on the trucks of a car, when he was thrown off and fell under the wheels. At the annual meeting for the election of officers of the Anaheim Water Company, held on last Saturday, the following were elected Directors to serve for the ensuing year: B. Dreyfus, F. A. Korn, J. P. Zeyn, F. Hartung, Erwin Barr. The new board will meet to-day and organize by electing officers. The amendments to the by-laws which were presented at a previous meeting were adopted. At a meeting of citizens held at Kroger's Hall on Monday evening the following ticket of town officers was nominated: For Trustees—J. P. Zeyn, Capt. A. S. Ferguson, Wm. Konig, F. A. Korn, P. Davis; for Assessor, H. C. Gade; for Clerk. A. W. Steinhart; for Treasurer, L. F. Lewis (by acclamation); for Marshal, L. Wartenberg; for Justice of the Peace, T. L. Gannon (by acclamation). Mr. Zeyn desires us to say that he declines the nomination. Capt. Ferguson and Mr. Korn also request us to announce that they decline the nomination. There is no doubt that the extension of the Southern Pacific railroad from Santa Ana towards San Diego will soon be an accomplished fact. A San Luis Rey correspondent of the San Diego Union says: "Cave Couta has withdrawn from the management of the Guajome ranch, and goes to assist Colonial Scott in running the railroad line from Santa Ana to this point." Many other things are happening which shows that the Southern Pacific people have determined to carry their track forward to the Bay city with the least possible delay. The Decision. IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA. The Anaheim Water Company et al. The Semi-Tropic Water Co. et al. This cause came on regularly for trial, the parties appearing by their respective counsel. A trial by jury having been duly and expressly waived by the counsel for the respective parties the cause was tried before the Court sitting without a jury, whereupon witnesses were sworn and examined and documentary evidence was introduced on the part and behalf of the plaintiffs and of the defendants, and the evidence being closed. The cause was submitted to the Court for consideration and decision; and after due deliberation thereon the Court delivers its findings and decision in writing, which is filed and orders that judgment be entered in accordance therewith. Wherefore, by reason of the law and findings aforesaid, it is ordered, adjudged and decreed, that the plaintiffs herein, to-wit: the Anaheim Water Company, a corporation, Robert W. Scott, A.

And it is further ordered, adjudged and decreed, that the plaintiffs do have and recover of, and from the defendants their costs and disbursements of this action taxed at [$1,286 95] and that execution issue therefor. Judgment rendered this 7th day of April 1882. W. T. McNealey, Judge. I hereby certify the foregoing to be a full, true and correct copy of the original decree in the case of Anaheim Water Co. et al vs. Semi-Tropic Water Co. No. 4014 in my office, and that I have carefully compared the same with the original. In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and affixed the seal of the Superior Court, this 12th day of April, 1882. A. W. Potts, County Clerk. By A. Rimpau, Deputy. Deserved Promotion. Among the important changes in business circles here, which have occurred lately, is the resignation of Mr. B. F. Seibert as Cashier of the Bank of Anaheim and his sale of his interest in the bank to Mr. Mabury of Los Angeles. We have already Fire Insurance. Rishard Melrose, the agent for all the first-class insurance companies represented by the Hutchinson & Mann agency, has been authorized to issue policies direct, without referring the applications to the home office. There are no better companies than those of this agency, and none do a larger and safer business. Call and get rates. The San Diego News is no more, and the business and good will of the paper has been sold to the Sun Publishing Company. J. M. Julian, the editor, in his last issue, announces as the reasons for his suspension: "The pressure of hard times, and consequent difficulty of sustaining an afternoon paper in a city having two morning dailies, coupled with want of a little rest after a six years' continuous service on the News, in which we have had to do the editing, local reporting, clerking and filling the place of foreman of the office for most of the time," and that he finds the drain, mental and physical, too much for one at the age of sixty-four. Last week as a meat merchant from Wilmington was coming up the channel a baby seal about two feet long followed the boat and set up a piteous cry for help. The little fellow had got lost from his mother and was lonesome and hungry. The boat was stopped and the little fellow climbed in and nestled down under the legs of the gentleman, who brought him to Wilmington and fed him with milk, of which he is very fond. He is perfectly tame and is the pet of the town. The following real estate transactions occurred during the week: Wm Fromhein and Emma C., his wife, to Henry Kuapke—20 acres in SE part of SE¾ Sec 35, T 3 S, R 10 W; $700. S S Chaffee to John Dolland — Agreement to convey the center¼ of SW½ Sec 19, T 3 S, R 11 W; $1500. Wm Gilder to Martin Holtz—10 acres in Sec 26, T 3 S, R 10 W; $400. The San Diego Union reports that a very curious fish was caught at the wharf. Deserved Promotion. Among the important changes in business circles here, which have occurred lately, is the resignation of Mr. B. F. Seibert as Cashier of the Bank of Anaheim and his sale of his interest in the bank to Mr. Mabury of Los Angeles. We have already noted that at a meeting of the Board of Directors Mr. George B. Shaffer was elected Secretary, but omitted to mention that a meeting of the stockholders will be called soon to elect a Cashier, which responsible position will without doubt be conferred upon Mr. Shaffer. His long connection with the bank, and thorough business training, coupled with the fact that he stands high in popular esteem, make him especially fitted to manage the bank and forward its interests. We know of no one more deserving of the good fortune which has overtaken him, and predict for him a successful career. That was rather an unfortunate allusion we made last week to the quietness and inactivity in the vicinity of our Justice's Courts. From Saturday morning, business has been brisk in that quarter. P. J. Kelley, a French sheep-herder, was brought up before Justice Gannon on a charge of drunkenness, and fined the costs of the action, on his promising to leave town and get to work. However, he afterwards changed his mind, and indulged in a sprightly spree. He was again brought up before the Justice, the charge being drunkenness and malicious mischief, fined $30, and in default of payment was sent up for 30 days. During a dispute on Saturday between Ah Ku and Ah Goon in a Chinese house near Los Angeles street, the former throw a heavy iron weight at the latter, striking him on the top of the head, inflicting an ugly wound from which the blood flowed freely. The parties were promptly arrested and brought up before the Justice on Tuesday, when Ah Goon preferred a charge of assault with a deadly weapon against Ah Ku. The latter was fined $100, and not being able to pay the sum, was sent up to the county jail for 100 days. Jose Aguilar pleaded guilty before Justice Bailey on Tuesday to a charge of disturbing the peace, and was fined $25. The Easter services at S. Michael's Church, were, as usual, largely attended, nearly every seat being occupied. Seldom has the church been more elaborately decorated than it was that day. The musical portion of the service was well rendered, and evinced careful preparation on the part of the choir. Among the notices given by the pastor was one of especial interest, not only to the members of the church, but to the whole community—viz. that the church is to be the The following real estate transactions occurred during the week: Wm Fromhein and Emma C., his wife, to Henry Knapke—20 acres in SE part of SE¾ Sec 35, T 3 S, R 10 W; $700.

The San Diego Union reports that a very curious fish was caught at the wharf there Saturday. It is apparently a young crawfish, but it has at the tail what seem like two peacock’s feathers, purple in the center, with a bright scarlet fringe-like border. There are also wing-like projections from the back of the head. What is it? Nicholas Conch, who killed Smith Crabtree at El Monte some time ago, was tried in Judge Sepulpveda’s Court on Tuesday and the jury rendered a verdict of manslaughter. He will be sentenced on Monday. The Santa Monica Hotel has been leased by J. W. Scott for one year, and it will be ready for the reception of guests by May 1st. The bill making Wilmington a Port of Entry has passed the United States Senate. General Sherman arrived in Los Angeles on Thursday, and will remain a few days. Thermometrical Record.

IT APPEARING TO THE COURT FROM THE petition of Josephine Wagner, administratrix of said estate and Guardian of the persons and estates of Charles Lucy Josephine, John and Joseph Wagner, minors, praying for an order of sale of certain real estate, in which said minors are interested, that it would be beneficial to said wards that said real estate should be sold. It is hereby ordered that the next of kin of said wards and all persons interested in the said estate appear before this Court at the Court room thereof in the City and County of Los Angeles, State of California, on the first day of May, A D. 1882, at 10 o’clock A.M., of said day there and there to show cause why an order should not be granted for the sale of such estate and it is further ordered that a copy of this order be published at least four successive weeks before the said hearing of the said petition in the Anaheim Gazette, a newspaper printed and published in said County of Los Angeles. V E. HOWARD, Superior Judge. Los Angeles March 22d, 1882. I hereby certify the foregoing to be a full, true and correct copy of the original order to show cause on application to sell real estate, in the estate of Charles Wagner, deceased, on file in my office, and that I have carefully compared the same with the original. In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and affixed the seal of the Superior Court, this 22d day of March, 1882. A W. POTTS, County Clerk. april THE FOUNTAIN SALOON Center St., Anaheim, (Under Kroeger’s Hall.) The Easter services at S. Michael's Church, were, as usual, largely attended, nearly every seat being occupied. Seldom has the church been more elaborately decorated than it was that day. The musical portion of the service was well rendered, and evinced careful preparation on the part of the choir. Among the notices given by the pastor was one of especial interest, not only to the members of the church, but to the whole community—viz. that the church is to be the recipient of a bell; something that has been long desired, but almost impossible to obtain. We understand that it is given by the father of the late Charles B. Balch, as a memorial to his son, and as such it will be especially valued. The special offertery for the day was for the painting fund, and amounted to nearly twenty-five dollars. We are informed that the pastor has since received from the Rev. Wm. H. Stoy, of San Rafael, a check for twenty dollars, which sum was found in the Easter offerings at his church, marked "For Anabeim." This timely assistance enables the trustees to have the painting begun immediately and they expect to let the contract this week. The crops throughout the county are looking splendid, and there have been few years of greater promise than this. Unless a succession of hot, blasting winds visit us, the crops will be very large. The period of frost has passed, too, and there is no danger to be apprehended by fruit growers from that source. Verily, the times are propitious. The State Board of Education has granted life diplomas to S. H. Butterfield, C. B. Jones, Helen E. Holland, Martha M. Hewes, Delight Swift, Lee Virginia, P. S. Zumwalt; and educational diplomas to Charles W. Moores, Ida Squires and Emily V. Wright, all of Los Angeles county. At the meeting of Anaheim Lodge, A. O. U. W., this evening, their representative to the Grand Lodge will make a report of the doings of that body. Post-Office Letter List.
