WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY FEB. 17, 1883 Kleinigkeiten. It is said that the boarding house at Carbordale was burned on last Sunday night. The number of valentines that passed through the post office Wednesday was only 215. Rev Mr. Jacobus of Westminster, whose serious illness was noted last week, is slowly recovering. The total exports from the Anabom depot for the month of January amounted to 434,280 lb., and the imports to 908,137 lb. Mr. Stamps of the Santa Ana Standard called on Thursday. That paper under his management is most entertaining and readable. Mr. and Mrs. A. Guy Smith rehearsed Saturday from their trip to the Himalayan Islands. The sea voyage proved very bonded to Mr. Smith. Among the exports for the past week were 188 boxes oranges, 120 boxes limes, 61 cases eggs and five pears wine, the total being 35,740 pounds—the dullest week for a long time. The Commerce, under the management of Mr. Stephens has improved greatly. A full telegraphic report is published every morning, and its local news is very full and complete. Mr. Frank Ey has allied to his stock an immense quantity of cigars, which he sells wholesale and retail. His score is now Dr. Head and County Division. The Anabom Gazette asserts positively, that Dr. Head said he was opposed to county division and would work against it. Dr. Head has not been heard from in the matter. We would take the word of Dr. Head in preference to that of the editor of the Gazette, in any matter, and we do not believe Dr. Head ever made any such statement to the editor of the Gazette, or any other person—Santa Ana World. We want to rest ourselves on record in this matter of what she had said prior to the election about the subject of county division. And we denote this a fitting place to say to A. White, that the resulting language towards the editor of the Gazette which has been given a place in the Herald on several occasions has not passed unnoticed. Our opinion of A. White will yet be given expression, but not through the columns of a newspaper. In the Gazette of January 20th, referring to Dr. Head's prosecution talk, we said: "He Dr. Head told the editor and others that he was opposed to county division and always had been that there was no necessity fruit, and that the charge that she had an understanding with those who enjoyed division was false." In the Gazette of October 21st, 1882, under the espionage, "A Drochammer," appeared the following: "Dr. A.W. Head, one of the Democratic nominees for the Assembly, demoted to trial of the rumor to which we referred a couple of weeks ago, to the effect that he was being run as a county division candidate." He says that he is opposed to the division of Los Angeles County, and does not believe that any considerable number of the people within the limits of the proposed new county are in favor of division. If he is elected, however, he would feel in duty bound to consider any petition, or introduce any bill which his constituency or any portion of them sent to him, reserving to himself the right to oppose or favor such petition or him. In the interview in which Dr. Head expressed these views, an interview sought by Dr. Head for the express purpose of publicizing the rumor that he was a candidate for county division was asked by him. As to the latter, the following facts is a sufficient answer: We are assured with the knowledge that cratic Assembly dorsed every plough including that reeve He thus enjoyment proved false to his trayed his constellation repeal of the South usefulness of Dr. Los Angeles county. Arranged for constituents by the Sunday law small hole to cross the Santa Ana "the canvass I" appeal of section "and under no" repeal of that fact Dr. Head He planted him San Jose platform if he had allow his mental resuscitation have been better rather, he would be ticket. Tit that they are in wards. Dr. He feels obliged tray his constitution compelled to fileversation, to enlighten he lightened upon... The Commercial, under the management of Mr. Stephens has improved greatly. A full telegraphic report is published every morning, and its local news is very full and complete. Mr. Frank Ey has allied to his stock an immense quantity of cigars, which he sells wholesale and retail. His store is now crowded with articles of beauty and usefulness, and his prices are a revelation. Charles L. Strong superb student and part owner of the Belt on mine, committed suicide at Anoun, Placent county, last week by shooting himself. Mental worry due to one time Strong owned land near Ananem and lived here. Advices from Sacramento are to the effect that the County division scheme is killed beyond redemption. The Committee to whom it was referred decided it to be unconstitutional and so reported. Better luck next time. On Tuesday a freight train drawn by two engines pumped the track about five miles from Samoa. The engine and a number of cars were pulled up promiscuously. A fireman named A.W. Sproule was killed and one of the engineers was seriously hurt. As will be seen by the telegram on the first page, the material of the Riverside Press and Hosta cultured was destroyed by the astroscrape fire at that place. Until now press and material is received, the Press will be printed at San Bernardo. We condole with our friend Holt in his misfortune. The preliminary examination of Conductor Rail and Brakeman Patton, who were in charge of the wrecked train at Tenachpe, resulted in the Court discharging Reed, and finding Patton guilty of gross criminal negligence in leaving his post. His bail was fixed at $2,599. The examination was held in a Bakersfield court. The man whose horse was killed in Chinatown on Thursday, through the explosion of a bomb, was offered by An Toy, the financial boss in that section, fifty dollars damages, but declined, demanding one hundred and seventy-five. The faulty Chinaman was arrested and fined $10, the owner of the horse getting nothing. This may be called "penny wise and pound foolish policy." —Commercial. Mr. R.B. Wiseman has returned to Santa Ana from Calico, in which latter place he has been for some time. He reports min- Mr. R. B. Wiseman has returned to Santa Ana from Calico, in which latter place he has been for some time. He reports mining matters lively in the camp. We are glad to know that Mr. Wiseman has bonded one of his mines for a handsome sum. His good fortune, however, was not without alloy, as he is suffering from an affection of the eyes, induced by the glare of the sun on the rocks. Deputy Sheriff Tyler took a 10-year old lad named Rios to Los Angeles on Wednesday to have him committed to the asylum. For the past five years the boy has been without sense, and he has lately developed a tendency to be dangerous to children. To prevent him from running away—which he was prone to do—the was kept chained to a bed. His parents are poor and gladly consented to his removal. Mr. Henry Grosjean, a Commissioner of the Agricultural Department of the French Government, was in town on Monday informing himself of viticultural matters. He speaks highly of the vineyards here, and gives it as his opinion that, particularly in sweet wines, this region excels. Mr. Grosjean returns to Paris in a few months to prepare a report of all the information he has gleaned during his two years of travel through every State in the Union. An assortment of buggies has been received by Messrs A. E. and E. A. White, which are worthy of notice. They are not "oheap" buggies, in the common acceptance of the term, but they are cheap when durability, strength and finish are taken into consideration. The same firm has also received a new lot of Mitchell Wagons, they having sold every one of the number previously imported. County division is a dead issue, Head is a dead issue, and there is really little need of pursuing the discussion further. We feel constrained, however, to call attention to one or two statements in the above letter. The careful reader will notice that Head attributes statements to the editor which we never made, and then fiercely denounces them as false. He constructs a straw man and then valiantly knocks him down. We assert that Head in his conversation with us said that he was not in favor of county division; that he never had been in favor of it; that he didn't believe the people wanted it. That is what he said, and that is what we said he said. If Mr. Head denies making these statements he is—well, we will tell him what he is the next time we have the pleasure of meeting him. Mr. Head received one hundred and twenty-seven votes in Anaheim. Had we not published his disclaimer in the Gazette, and had he not in conversation with his political friends here given them to understand that he was opposed to county division, he PRIISION. positively, and to county as it. Dr. the matter. Head in of the Ganot believe statement to other perword in this order to the city division. so say to A. towards has been several occapation. Our opinion expression, newspaper, referring we said; and others city division there was no charge that those who 21st, 1882, appear head, one of the Assemmor to which is a county that he is Los Angeles that any condition within the county are in expected, howound to conceive any bill portion of himself such petition Dr. Head exspect sought by of publicly was a candidation him would not have received twenty-seven votes. In talking with Judge Gannon, with Mr. Scott, with Mr. Lynill, with Mr. Barham and with other leading Democrats here, he gave them to understand that he was totally opposed to division; but the fact that in this precinct he was led sixty votes by his colleague, Moffitt, shows that his party friends did not trust him, despite his disclaimer. As to the latter paragraph of Heads' letter, the following from the Los Angeles Herald is a sufficient answer: We are assured by those who are conversant with the facts of their own personal knowledge that Dr. Head, one of our Democratic Assemblymen, most unequivocally endorsed every plank of the San Jose platform, including that relating to the snippet law. He thus enjoys the distinction of having proved false to his pledges and having be-trayed his constituents by voting against the repeal of the Sunday law. We think the usefulness of Dr. Head as a public man in Los Angeles county has reached a period. Arranged for violating his pledges to his constituents by voting against the repeal of the Sunday law, Dr. Head has found a very small hole to crawl out of. In a letter to the Santa Ana Herald he said: "During 'the canvass I did agree to vote for the re-peal of sections 309 and 301 of the code,' and would have done so if the bill had only included these two sections, but it included section 267, and I did at no time and under no circumstances agree to the 'repeal of that section.' As a matter of fact Dr. Head made no such reservation. He planted himself unequivocally upon the San Jose platform, and he knew well that if he had allowed the slightest suspicion of his mental reservation to go abroad he would have been beaten out of his boots, or, rather, he would have been displaced from the ticket. There are some men so straight that they are in danger of falling over backwards. Dr. Head is so conscientious that he feels obliged to break his pledges and betray his constituents. He of course was compelled to find some excuse for his tergiversation, to employ no harasser word, and he lighted upon one of the thinnest. A glorious rain on Monday night and Wednesday completely metamorphosed the nature of things. The fall, as indicated by Mr. Langenberger's gauge, was 1.05 inches; at the railroad depot, 1.98; at Mr. E. S. Saxton's, 1.310; at Mr. E. A. Saxton's, 1.310. ANAHEIM'S ANIMALS. Some Amusing Anecdotes Concerning Them. Ed. GAZEITE:—Anaheim is noted for, among many other things, the peculiar intelligence of its population. The very air which we breathe seems to be specially adapted to the quickening of all the senses and the development of all our latent powers. Why, the very animals seem to be possessed of superior intelligence and reasoning powers who claim their homes in this favored locality. A few instances illustrative of this subject which have come under the writer's notice may prove acceptable. One curiosity is of the canine species, and belongs to a gentleman living west of town. It is a large pointer dog totally blind, or at least totally blind when the majority of his species enjoy a keen sight. He could see as usual until about three weeks old, when he became day blind, we may say, being unable to see anything during the day time, but seeing perfectly well at night. The loss of sight is somewhat compensated by quickened instinct and sense of smell, and he can make his way about the house and yard without difficulty; but when he ventures out into the street, if a team or person happens to be passing and in his way, he will surprise them and himself by running head first into them. Persons and horses have been scared a few times this way, but no serious accident has resulted therefrom. He is a splendid watch dog, and no one or nothing can approach the yard day or night without his knowledge. Nothing unusual is noticed about his eyes, and a person looking at him would never believe him to be blind. He is greatly attached to all the members of the household, and never tires of romping with the children. For these qualities he is prized highly by his master. A pet rooster had been learned to jump up five feet and pick grains of corn, crumbs of bread, etc., from the hand. This was soon found to be a dangerous accomplishment, however, for he got to jumping the fence that enclosed his yard and nearly destroyed the strawberry bed and scratched up all the flowers in the garden. When any one went into the yard he would run up and jump at a corkscrew of someone with which to un-cork the flask, nor yet that he took the flask to a saloon to be refilled after he had drained the contents, we do assert that the incident as related occurred. He was an Anaheim gopher. Post-Office Letter List.

The following real estate transaction are reported: F J J Schmidt to Max Nebelung - E A glorious rain on Monday night and days completely metamorphosed the nature of things. The fall, as indicated by Mr. Langenberger's gauge, was 1.05 inches; at the railroad depot, 1.98; at Mr. E. S. Saxton's, 1.316; at Mr. E. A. Saxton's, 1.310. In Los Angeles, the highest fail recorded is 4.08 inches. At San Gabriel the fall was 6.91 inches. With the showers which may yet be reasonably expected, very fine crops will undoubtedly be raised in this county. The storm was general all over the State. The river, which before the last storm was alarmingly low, is now a turbid, rushing stream. Water is being taken into the lowest ditch. The dense pack of snow on the mountains gives assurance that water will be abundant for some time, even if we are not favored with another rain storm. Last week Murdock Henry sold his 40-acre tract west of town, through Mr. Hanna's agency, to Frank Moore for $1600. He immediately afterward repented of the bargain, however, and bought 40 acres from Mr. G. G. Greely, just opposite his former tract, paying the same amount therefor. Mr. Hearn paid the cash, got his deed, and it has already been placed on record. Onglast Saturday afternoon, Mr. Hildretti's horses ran away and he was thrown from the high seat of his wagon. He was hurt about the shoulders and head, and it was at first thought that his injuries were serious, but we learn that he has almost recovered. Mr. Perry, better known as "Potato Perry," from the fact that he peddles that vegetable, was thrown from his wagon in Santa Ana on Thursday and had his leg broken. The agent of the Southern California Publishing Company was engaged yesterday in compiling statistics for the new County Directory soon to be issued. The attempt to hold a citrus fair in Santa Ana has been abandoned. The usual services will be held at the Presbyterian church to-morrow morning. Mr. Edwards will soon make a shipment from the depot of 3,000 sacks of corn. LOS ANGELES MARKETS. Corrected weekly for the issuance by E. GERMAIN Commission and shipping Merchant, 25 Main street, Los Angeles, I.D. BUTTER, fresh, choice, per lb., 25c. Fair to good **20c.* A pet rooster had been learned to jump up five feet and pick grains of corn, crumbs of bread, etc., from the hand. This was soon found to be a dangerous accomplishment, however, for he got to jumping the fence that enclosed his yard and nearly destroyed the strawberry bed and scratched up all the flowers in the garden. When any one went into the yard he would run up and jump at their cuff buttons, or their fingers, or pick at anything they held in their hands. On one occasion he actually jumped up at a boy who stopped in the yard, and fastened on to his ear, no doubt thinking it a dainty morsel tendered to him. A horse belonging to a family in town had his hitching post near the stable door, which was kept closed without fastening. The horse, after finishing his hay outside, used regularly to open the stable door by working his nose behind it, as a gentle hint to any one who might be about. This became annoying and a latch and staple was put on the door. As usual the horse tried to open the door but found the latch too much for him. He evidently reasoned upon the subject for some time, for in a few days he opened the latch and door with his nose as before, and plainly showed much satisfaction at the trick. Then a padlock and key was put on the door, and—well, the lock apparently bothered him, and he has not yet been able to "get around" the contrivance. The following account of a fighting cat was published in a Los Angeles paper some time ago: "Anahaheim is the home of a curiosity of the feline species. It is a tabby of medium size and not great age, who has acquired a local reputation as a prize fighterer. Tabby attacks dogs in the neighborhood whenever opportunity offers, flying at them tooth and nail, and she makes them "put" too. She belongs to one of our merchants and makes the store her headquarters. A dog will pass before the store peacefully and unsuspectingly, when suddenly something flies out at him from behind the door, and he feels a pair of sharp claws tearing through his hide. He utters a howl of pain and surprise, and without waiting to investigate, tears up the street to fill a forgotten appointment. All our town dogs are intimately acquainted with that cat, and the wise ones when occasion makes it necessary to pass her quarter, cross to the other side of the street. The other day two large dogs stopped in front of the store. Tabby saw 'em, flew at one and then the other, making such good use of her claws that the discomfited canines made themselves scarce without delay. The cat frequently attacks small boys in the same manner, but the clerks in the store prevent her hurting them." Another Anahaheim cat has distinguished itself by making the highest leap on record. A hole four feet square and eight and a half feet deep has been made to sink a well about his eyes, and a person looking at him would never believe him to be blind. He is greatly attached to all members of the household, and never tires of romping with the children. For these qualities he is prized highly by his master.

A hole four feet square and eight and a half feet deep has been made to sink a well frame. Down into this hole the cat was thrown in mischief. The feline was so scared that, without seeming to touch the bottom it leaped up with a wild effort, and without touching the sides of the pit, fairly cleared the top at one bound, and put out of the neighborhood. This may seem an extraordinary feat for a cat, but we can vouch for its correctness in every particular. Among the strange pets that have found a home here may be mentioned a pair of crows, a young fox, a badger, and the small menagerie of animal curiosities once possessed by Mr. C. Hille, but now scattered in various directions. One more incident and we are done. Some two weeks ago the writer, in passing along Lemon street, was attracted to one side by a moving object. That object, upon investigation turned out to be a half-pint whisky flask, partly filled, and it was standing; neck down, over a fresh gopher hole. A string was tied to the neck of the flask and the loose end ran down into the hole. The flask was uncorked and the liquid was running below and out of sight. Upon our first cautious approach, Mr. gopher was standing near the top of the hole with the end of the string in his mouth, and by jerking on the string was "alobbering" the whisky out of the inclined bottle, which had run low, and with his mouth partly open, was receiving and putting away the beverage. Our approach scared him below and we did not see the sequel. The flask had probably been dropped there by some tipsy fellow, where the gopher in burrowing about found it, and being attracted by the smell of the whisky put into execution the above plan to secure the contents. Now, while we are not prepared to state that the cate raton borrowed INVITATION!
