S. Knapp of Santa Ana went East on Tuesday, being called thither by the serious illness of her mother. —An elaborate and interesting letter from Westminster was received yesterday, too late for publication this week. It will appear next Saturday. —The freight movement at the Anaheim depot during the month of October was: Imports, 615,940 pounds; exports, 402,830 pounds. —L. McCabe was arrested the other day and taken before Justice Bailey on a charge of being drunk and disorderly. Being duly penitent he was dismissed with a reprimand. —Mr. H. C.

In many parts of Los Angeles county, land is held at a rate far in excess of its real value. The man who purchases such land as a business investment, expecting to live by its products, will sooner or later realize that he has made a mistake. It shows great lack of judgment to pay $200 or more per acre for land when equally as good land can be had for $75 or $100 per acre. In no part of Los Angeles county can cheaper or better land be had than in the vicinity of Anaheim. In the districts known as North Anaheim, Orangethorpe and Fairview there is every advantage of location and soil possessed by the most favored parts of the State, and yet the land is selling from $35 to $73 per acre. These are the present ruling prices, but the tendency is upward. The same land was cheaper a year ago; they will be dearer a year hence. As a speculation, there is more money in buying land in these districts at the present figures and holding them for a year or two, than there is in any other investment of which we have knowledge. Churches, school houses and all the requirements of complete social enjoyment abound; and as for the climate, it is as near perfection as at any place on the globe. There are never any epidemics of malaria; and diseases usually fatal in narraher climes, here assume a mild and comparatively harmless character. For lung diseases especially this climate is extremely favorable, and there are dozens of people in Anaheim who are robust and active, but who could not live a month in colder or harsher climates. Church Notes. A lot has been purchased from Mrs. Koll on vineyard E 5, between Lemon and Clementina Streets, on which to build the German Church for which Rev. Mr. Schuldt is now soliciting subscriptions.

C. Kellogg's services as surveyor are in considerable demand owing to the numerous real estate transfers now taking place. The case of the Anaheim Water Company against the Cajon Irrigating Company has been set for trial in the Superior Court on December 20th at 10 A.M. The Teachers' Institute, which has here-tofore been held in November, has been postponed until April in accordance with a request preferred by a number of teachers. The agent for the galvanic belt and other appliances will be at the Planters' Hotel to-day and next Saturday. See advertisement. Mr. John Timney of Garden Grove offers 80 acres of land for sale at a cheap figure. He gives particulars in his advertisement. A resident of Santa Monica has been sent to jail for 30 days for beating his wife. The man is paralyzed in his arms, and the poor fellow was forced to chastise his wife with his feet. The Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Company, at their meeting last Saturday, elected the following Board of Directors: Joel Parker, C. Travis, Dr. Wall, W. H. Spurgeon and R. B. Guthrie. As an instance of the profits of raisin culture, Mr. W. E. Sibley tells us that Mr. P. Ainsworth of Orange has 400 boxes of raisins, the product of 2½ acres of vines. He has refused $2 a box for his crop. Dr. J. Highland Hill, an English physician of considerable wealth, who was some years ago a guest of Dr. Ellis, has in a letter to Dr. Ellis announced his intention of returning here. He is at present in England. The card of the law firm of Mansfield & Cheney is published to-day. These gentlemen need no introduction to our readers as they are both widely known. They are both distinguished lawyers, and occupy a leading place at the Los Angeles bar. J. W. Brierly was installed as Collector of the Port of Wilmington on Tuesday. As soon as possible he will remove his office from Wilmington to the terminus of the railroad at Fayal. J. W. Anderson of Orange has been appointed Deputy Collector. In order to correct any wrong impress- Church Notes. A lot has been purchased from Mrs. Koll on vineyard E.5, between Lemon and Clementina Streets, on which to build the German Church for which Rev. Mr. Schuldt is now soliciting subscriptions. He asks us to urge the people to give liberally to the building fund, as not only is a building a necessity to the German congregation, but it is an improvement to the town which will have its influence in attracting a desirable class of settlers. Mr. Schuldt is correspondent of a German paper published in the East, and is doing what he can to induce settlers to come here. He receives many letters of inquiry, and nearly all the writers ask if there is a German church established here. He is satisfied that the erection of a church will "pay" in a material sense, and is therefore justified in asking all public-spirited citizens to assist in its erection. There will be services in the Episcopal Church to-morrow morning, Rev. J. A. Emery officiating. Mr. Justice, of the Christian Church, will preach in the Fairview school house to-morrow afternoon at 1 o'clock. The Episcopal church looks bright as a dollar in its new coat of paint. When the surrounding grounds are planted with grass and flowers (which will be done at the proper season) the place will be very attractive and ornamental. The subject of the sermon to be delivered at the Presbyterian Church to-morrow is, "How to be saved." Bourd of Supervisors. WEDNESDAY, Nov. 15.

Mr. Wm. Meck, the baker, is building up a profitable trade, and is fully determined to remain here permanently. He is a good baker and fine business man, and deserves the patronage of the citizens of Anaheim. By reference to his card in our advertising column, it will be seen that he will have a lot of fruit cake prepared for Thanksgiving Day. The Herald wants a penitentiary built in Los Angeles, and has collated some facts to show the need of one. From 1878 to the present time there have been 173 prisoners taken to San Quentin from this county, and during the same period 113 insane persons have been taken from this county to the saylums at Napa and Stockton. For the transportation and official fees connected with the transfer of these criminals and insane persons, there has been paid out $35,-000. A fire at Wilmington on Monday night destroyed a number of buildings. The following were the principal losses: W. Frankel & Co. $20,000; Bennett's shoe store, $500; Mrs. Green, fancy goods, $2,000; Mrs. Davidson, millinery, $500; John Carro, barber, $500; Simon, saloon, $1,300; Joe Sylva, merchandise, $3,000; Sam Marshal, saloon, $1,800; J.

He has been sick for some weeks, as a result of a severe cold caught while hunting. His illness developed into typhoid malarial fever, and having an aversion to medicine he failed to avail himself of medical assistance until too late. His brother will arrive here from the East probably to-morrow, having been telegraphed for several days ago. The body has been embalmed by Dr. Hardin, and the interment will be deferred until the arrival of the brother referred to. The care and anxiety of nursing her husband has prostrated Mrs. Sheffield, and she is now quite ill. The vintage is about over, and the wine-growers have reason to be thankful for the abundant harvest. Although in some instances the yield of grapes was not as great as last year, as a rule it was much larger, and at least one-third more wine was made this season than in 1881. It is the best vintage in twelve years, not alone in quantity but also in quality. We are informed by Mr. B. Dreyfus that the port wine he has made this year has more saccharine matter, and has a better flavor and color than during any year in his experience as a wine-maker. Mr. C. W. Moorea, Principal of the Public School, was seized with a sudden faintness while teaching on Thursday, and had to dismiss the scholars in his department. He was quite sick yesterday. We hope that he will speedily recover his wounded health. A BLOODY DEED. Offering Up His Son's a Sacrifice. A few years ago the whole civilized world was thrilled with horror at the fearful crime perpetrated by a fanatical shoemaker of Pocasset, in Massachusetts. His debased, warped and distorted mind conceived the idea of propitiating Divine favor by offering his son as a sacrifice, and he committed the foul crime without attempt at concealment, but with self-glorification and ready argument to prove that what he had done would find favor in the eyes of the Lord. The madman (for so he was adjudged) was consigned to an asylum and to oblivion, but it was long ere the circumstances of the peculiarly atrocious crime faded from public memory. And who would have predicted that in this fair county a parallel crime would be committed—a crime which in its details is more sickening and awful than even the Pocasset murder? And yet we have today to chronicle the perpetration of just such a crime. "Fisherman Joe" is a name familiar to nearly every resident of Anaheim. The individual so designated for a great many years, and until seven or eight months ago, made regular visits to Anaheim with the fish which he caught in the ocean near Anaheim Landing. He lived with his wife and family on a small island off the Bolsa Chica beach, about five miles from Westminster. Being thus semi-isolated, not much was known of the details of their domestic life, nor was any undue attention attracted to them until a few months ago, when Joe (his true name is Josiah Smith) called at the postoffice in Westminster for a letter which he said the Lord had promised to send him. The absurcity of his talk only excited laughter and ridicule, for no one thought for a moment that his madness would lead to such a fearful climax. His family consisted of a wife and four children—the oldest a boy 13 years of age. COUNTY NEWS. Gleaned from our Exchange. Herald. A blacksmith named Griffin, residing on Sigth Street, made an unsuccessful attempt at suicide, by taking landam. This is the third time he has attempted to kill himself. The talk of the town is the late importation of a woman barber; a very lady of the razor, an expert in the art torsorial. For the first time in a long series of years, the famous Laguna, on the ranch of that name, has completely dried up. It will be remembered that Col Baker had stocked the lake with carp and catfish, which had multiplied very abundantly, and had afforded fine sport to the anglers. In consequence of the drying up of the waters thousands of these fish have perished. They could be seen lying around in great numbers, many of them having attained a great size. Commercial. Don Manuel Carrizosa of Vernon lost his third child within two weeks Friday, of diphtheria. The little one was two years old; and the only remaining one is so ill with the same disease that its recovery is not expected. Truly, sometimes the ways of Providence are inscrutable. Express. All is not serene within the temperance ranks. The Grand Lodge of Good Templars recently refused to institute a lodge at El Monte because the applicants refused to endorse the Sunday law.

The body was recovered and was buried yesterday. Times. Mr. E. Kimball's persistent and valuable work in behalf of the churches of this city still continues unabated. Last Sunday Of Interest to Ex-Soldiers. New York, Nov. 13—The Tribune's Washington special says: Pension Commissioner Dudley, in preparing tables for his annual report, has made the discovery that there are one million ex-soldiers living in the United States who have never applied for pensions. These men are getting along in years, and disorders contracted in service are manifesting themselves in pensionable disabilities. The prevalent idea that the pension rolls should be decreasing at this time he thinks erroneous. They are, on the contrary, likely to increase for some years. The annual amount for current payments is now about $55,000,000, exclusive of arrears. The Commissioner has information that petitions are in circulation for signature praying Congress to pass another Arrears-of-Pensions bill. Applicants whose claims have been filed for the first time within the last two years are not entitled under the existing laws to arrears. The proposition is to have all limits and restrictions removed, so that a pensioner whose claim has been established, or who shall hereafter make a claim and prove it, shall be entitled to back pension from the time his disability was incurred. This is one of the problems which the new Democratic Congress will have to wrestle with. It may upset the neat plans of a reduction of taxation, from which so much is hoped, in aid of the Democratic cause. At Salem, Oregon, on Sunday afternoon, the team driven by E. Wolford ran away, upsetting the carriage and throwing Wolford and his two daughters out. One of the daughters, aged 21 years, was thrown under the horses' heels and trampled to death.

Being thus semisolated, not much was known of the details of their domestic life, nor was any undue attention attracted to them until a few months ago, when Joe (his true name is Josiah Smith) called at the postoffice in Westminster for a letter which he said the Lord had promised to send him. The absurdity of his talk only excited laughter and ridicule, for no one thought for a moment that his madness would lead to such a fearful climax. His family consisted of a wife and four children—the oldest a boy 13 years of age. It required all the earnings of a sane fisherman to support such a family; and it may be imagined that when the provider became a maniac, there was but scant fare in the household. And a few weeks ago he gave up fishing altogether, saying that the Lord would provide for him. Mussels, clams and other sea food picked up on the beach kept the family from actual starvation, and the boy spoken of occasionally bought small quantities of provisions in Westminster with money he had earned by piloting hunters across the bogs and marshes. A few days preceding the murder, he bought a sack of flour, and on taking it home his father was greatly angered and emptied the flour on the ground, saying that the Lord would provide, and ordering the boy to bring no more provisions to the island. On the morning of November 4th, "moved by an impulse from the Lord," Smith called his boy out of the house. The tragedy had best be given in Smith's own words: "Ten minutes before the sacrifice I had impulse from God. I told the boy that it was the will of God that I should sacrifice him. I had the knife in my hand. The boy said nothing, nor did he attempt to get away. He knelt down and I cut him in the middle of the breast. He asked me for a drink of water, and I gave it to him and laid him on the bed. He died in a few minutes." The body was kept unburied for several days, because Smith was waiting for another impulse from God as to what to do with the body. He expected to receive a Divine command to burn it, but receiving no further inspiration, he made a rough box, placed the body in it and interred it. On the morning of the 9th instant, a party of hunters, wishing to engage the services of the boy for the day, called at the island and inquired for him. The father coolly informed them of the murder, and the next day he was arrested and taken to Westminster where the details of the crime were brought out by judicial examination. Smith accompanied the officers to the island and pointed out the spot where the boy was buried. The remains were exhumed, and Dr. McCoy examined the body. He found only one cut in the breast, eight inches deep and four inches long. A common butcher knife had been used, and in response to a question Smith took the knife, inserted it in the wound, and showed how he struck the fatal blow. Neither then, nor at any time, did he show the slightest feelings of compunction or remorse. So thoroughly satured is he with the idea that it was by Dr. recently refused to institute a lodge at El Monte because the applicants refused to endorse the Sunday law. Elmo Stoughton, the year and a half old son of Mr. Stoughton who lives near New River, while out playing on Sunday fell into a ditch near the house and was drowned before his absence was known. The body was recovered and was buried yesterday. Mr. E. Kimball's persistent and valuable work in behalf of the churches of this city still continues unabated. Last Sunday evening the work of raising $12,500, the amount deemed necessary for erection of a suitable Baptist church, was completed. By two o'clock in the afternoon nearly the whole amount had been pledged. The good work was then postponed till evening, when it was renewed with vigor until the total amount was secured.
