Southern California Illustrated" is the title of a fifty-year pamphlet issued by George Hine of the Library Bureau. It is a very handsome work and its contents seem to have been compiled with great care. As will be seen by the advertisement, the question sale at the San Francisco Cash Store will begin on Tuesday the 29th that this will prove a more advantage to secure positive bargains. Land Values. The very fact that the lands in the vicinity of Anaheim are held at a lower price than any other part of Los Angeles county fermates an argument to those who, from self interest or pure curiosity, strive to prevent the sale and settlement of the vacant lands of this section. They assume that no one land it chooses here it is necessarily peer that if the land was as good as in other places it would be held at the lowest valued which rule in those other places. This pleasant presentation of the matter will always have the desired effect unless the one to whom the information is given desires to verify it by personal inspection. When such a one comes here the utter fallacy of the opinions argument above quoted becomes perfectly apparent. What does he find on the town of Anaheim? An array of crops neatly kept and carefully tended, the wood far thrifter and more heavily loaded each grape than in any other part of Los Angeles county, or of the State. He finds that fruits of every description grow within a certain which cannot be excelled anywhere. He finds that the net returns from a twenty-one vineyard are greater than reflected by the farmer who cultivates hundred and acres of grazing in short time this community to be as prosperous; the climate is temperate and malpressed as this place while he may have visited in latter years. Proceeding to Orangeville and North Anaheim he builds a soil and country essentially different but equally as valuable for fertility and vineyard, no more beautiful country can be found in this town than here. And yet through some minute dispersion this country has not contributed to any great extent in the boom which has been characteristic of the past few years. There has however been much improvement, but it has been a steady healthy advancement, not a bounding fever, economic progress. And because the improvement has been gradual and regular, land values have not yet reached unreasonable figures, although for a year or more there has been a steady advance in prices. There are few tracts of unimproved land for which more than one hundred dollars per acre are asked, while some first class land can be laid at $80,875 and possibly a grille lower.

It has a very handsome work and its contents seem to have been compiled with great care. As will be seen by the advertisement, the auction sale at the San Francisco Gas Store will begin on Tuesday the 28th just this will prove a rare vintage to secure positive bargains. The Herald reports that Clark Monaghan has sold some Arizona mining claims for $13,000. Frank Woold to be conductor on the Anaheim train North has already been marchedizing at the Norfolk/West. City property in Arizona is increasing in value. Hancock & Dunn and $75 per front foot for their lot in Los Angeles street. Fortunately for the property of the town there are other lots which can be purchased at a more reasonable price. D.W. Holloway, the real estate agent, brought to this office a fine sample of Moscat grapes which he got from E.W. Hill's place. Mr. Hill has sold development to Mr. Vager of Orange for $79 per ton on the vine, the grapes to be shipped to Boston this week. The arguments of counsel on the case of One Anaheim Water Company against the Cajun Irving company are heard in the Superior Court on January 16, Judge Bode of van Parnardine. The decision will probably not be given for two or three months. Mr. F.A.Korn returned on Thursday from a three weeks trip through the northern counties. He contends the report regarding the poor grade crop of Napa and Sonoma counties. The foot wounds sustained just as the grapes had set off the cause of the trouble. An corporation known as the Central Railway Company has been organized in Los Angeles, its object being to purchase and sell lease, build constructs, own, and operate street railways in the city of Los Angeles and other towns and places in the county. E.F. Spence and J.E.Crank are the principal shareholders. A map named Carbett was charged by the Riverside Press with being the supposed murderer of Lace, whose remains were found on the desert. Carbett dismaired, and the Press explains that it meant to charge Hoffman with the crime, but that the names got mixed up. Carbett must be very high tempered to get mad about a little thing like that. Mr. Morris Snap, of Missouri, accompanied by his family, has arrived here with participated to any great extent in the boom which has been characterized of the past few years. There has however been much improvement, but it has been a steady healthy advancement; not a bounding fever, stagnant progress. And because the improvement has been gradual and regular, land affairs have not yet reached unreasonable figures, although for a year or more there has been a steady advance in prices. There are few tracts of unimproved land for which more than one hundred dollars per acre is asked, while some first class land can be laid at $89,875 and possibly slightly lower. It is to be feared that the early shipment of Moscat grapes to the Eastern market will bring their altitude grape into disguise. The grapes are not ripe; they have not developed such disease matter, and unlikely some fruits they are not ripen after being planked. It is said that several caribades of Muscat have already been forwarded to Chicago; and so we hope the consumers will not fall into the error of assuming that such grapes are the best that can be raised here. The fruit must necessarily be immature and still frozen. An apportionment of the state school funds has been made. The total amount apportioned is $250,920 of which Los Angeles county reserves $211,749. According to the courts in which the awardment is based, there are 222 old school children in the state 12,422 living in this county. The county west San Francisco and Alameda alone exceed this county by the number of children, the host named having 54,061, and the latter 17,576. Alameda county is credited with 92 children and receives only $161. One local real estate agent have been hurt during the week showing the land to a number of strangers who were looking for homes. Although only one sale has been closed, there is reason to believe that quite a number of transfers will soon result from the visit of the party allied to. Not only did they express themselves delighted with the country, but they assert that the price asked for land here is less than at any place they have visited. Our Westminster correspondent writes that Henry Stephens has sold his forty acres, approved with house, barn, sheds, corrals, and well fenced, small vineyard, orchard and africa to Gilbert Goodwin from Orange for $250. Mr Stephens will move to his other 40 acres, on which he is just finishing a commercial house, and has bargained for the adjointing 40 acres on the North from the Trustee for $700.

Mr. Morris Snap, of Missouri, accompanied by his family, has arrived here with the intention of settling. They are old time friends of Mr. Brown Barr, and it is likely that Mr. Snap will follow the example of his friend and locate where there is neither cyclone nor flood to molest him or make him afraid. During the time when vine stakes were in greatest demand, Messrs. Saxton & Cox found it impossible to have them delivered from the mills in sufficient quantity. Anticipating an equal demand next season, they have taken time by the forelock and are now laying in a stock which will insure a full supply to owners of young vineyards. Mrs. W. Grote, of Los Angeles, has rented the millinery store in Breyfus's building on Center street, and will open early next week with a full assortment of millinery goods purchased in the East some weeks ago. The re-opening of the store will be a great accommodation to the ladies of Anaheim as well as a source of profit to Mrs. Grote, who is an expert milliner. In the Superior Court proceedings of last Monday is recorded the following action on two appealed Anaheim cases: W. J. Smith vs. B. F. Porter—It appearing to the Court that the appeal herein has not been prosecuted within a reasonable time, the same is hereby dismissed. J. D. Kraemer vs. Claus Wilkins—Same order.

John Hanna, real estate agent, reports the sale of C Meyer’s place of fifteen acres in the southwest part of town for $2,425, the purchaser being Robert Hansen, a new comer here. It is to be hoped that Mr. Meyer will not leave this vicinity, but that he will find some place here to suit him. We have on file and will print next week, a communication from the Superintendent of the Ostrich Farm, in which he replies to some criticisms which appeared recently in the New York Evangelist. A reservoir is being built by the Cucamonga Vineyard Society at their vineyard to enable them to store sufficient water to obviate the necessity of night and Sunday irrigation. We add from time to time all the most beautiful styles of type and can furnish any kind of printing at short notice and of excellent workmanship. An election will be held in Bolsa Grande School District on Sept. 15th, to vote upon the question of levying a tax of $225 with which to repair the school house.

AN EXCITING EPISODE Wrecked on the Bar at Anaheim Landing The Deadly Peril of a Beat-lead of Excursionists The Work of Rescue Narrow Escape of one of the Rescuing Party. The strong of people which during the present summer jaws invaded Anaheim landing on Sundays were present in even greater numbers last Sunday, the weather being such as to win the life to the refreshing breeze of the ocean. Among the members who came to spend the day were Richard Krieke, H.C. Gate, M. Otinger, C. Wilkinson, H. Knajke, E. Stein, F. Burnmann, Frank Sahert and Charles Knobloch. In the afternoon, the abnorm named, together with Ernest Browning, embarked on the sort boat, under the postage of Ben Wilson, and put out to sea on a fishing excursion. They cruised about for a couple of hours, caught a number of large fish and started to return from what all voted to be a most exhilarating sail. A stiff breeze was blowing as their boat approached the bar, and the breakers were crashing quite high; a fact, however, which was not noticeable from the shore. The passage of the boat through the breakers generally results in the passengers getting sensed in the flying spray, and a large number of the visitors congregated on the beach to enjoy the wetting which it was anticipated the fishing party would receive suddenly, without warning, and quick as a flash, the horribilous sight the boat turn over upon its side, several of the passengers swimming in the angry sea and the others clunging to the side of the boat. They saw the customers regain the boat and take their place on the pervious perch to which the others were clinging. All this time the breakers were dashing with great force over the boat and it was evident that some of the number would be washed off unless specially rescued. As soon as the alarm was green a number of men hastily drowned bathing suits and made preparations to take a line on the boat as to pull it to the shore. The only available small boat was manned by Capt. Wilson and George Hall, and it was guided through the breakers with great skill and without a moment's unnecessary they could have guided it through the breakers, and if they had succeeded in doing so the probabilities are that, through ignorance and a desire to be of the greatest possible service, they would have taken off four or more of the breaked men, with the result that the rescuing boat would itself have been swamped. The boat drifted ashore and was recovered on Monday morning. The sailors were torn and a valuable compass was lost, but the boat itself was not damaged. In explanation of the mishap which befell Mr. Schmidt, who is an expert swimmer, it is proper to say that he exhausted his not great strength in pulling the rope through the breakers. Being of a highly nervous temperament, he worked with an energy and good will which soon exhausted him. When the second rope was thrown to him, he was doubtful whether he could longer keep up, and was tempted to relieve himself of the rope and swim ashore. But the thought that perhaps if he thus saved himself those who were on the boat might pansh, nerved him to continue the struggle until, as has been narrated, his own life was nearly forfeited. He is now thoroughly rescued, although for a couple of days after the accident he suffered somewhat from its effects. This disaster calls to mind a somewhat similar but more fatal one which occurred at the same place six years ago. A surf boat manned by five sailors and officered by Capt. Wilson was returning from the steamer, and when passing through the bar the Captain gave the command "hold on." Two of the crew were green hands, and they misinterpreted the order and pulled with all their might, while the others of the crew stopped rowing. As a result, the boat swung around, the steering car struck Capt. Wilson in the breast and knocked him overboard, and a moment later a breaker capsized the boat throwing the crew into the water. Two of the men should not swim and they managed to clamber on to the boat and stuck there until rescued by a boat sent out from the wharf. The other three being able to swim sought to mitigate Capt. Wilson (who is ambiguous after a fashion and endeavored to reach land). As on last Sunday, One title was running out, and it was impossible to make headway through the channel, hence they had to swim seaward, out of the current, and then make for the shore. Capt. A Plan of Consolidation Ed. Gazetteer—I propose that the Capon Company amalgamate with the Anaheim Water Company on these conditions: 1. That a new company be formed with sufficient capital for the purpose not forthay, $1,000,000 divided into 10,000 shares each share representing one acre or less of ground. 2. That in consideration of the whole indebtfulness of the Anaheim Water Company and the Capon Company, each of the aforesaid companies to sell out to said company so formed as well as issuance of stock to the stockholders of both companies in proportion of one share of stock for every $1250 paid. This is intended to give two shares of stock to the members of the Anaheim Water Company who have paid the full price for their stock; those who have only paid $1250 or less will only receive one share of stock. The Capon Company shareholders will receive the same amount of stock they now hold. 3. The new company to guarantee to the settlers in the original Anaheim the same rights as are reserved in the doest from the Vineyard Association to the Anaheim Water Company; provided always that the parties living on or owning lands in the said original Anaheim shall not sell or in any manner whatever dispose of the stock so allotted to each of said shareholders, otherwise this aforesaid reservation shall be void and of none effect whatever, otherwise to remain in full force and virtue. 4. And should a majority of stockholders of both companies signify their approval by affixing their names hereunto to different Boards of Directors shall call a meeting at an early day for the purpose of electing a new Board of Directors who shall form the new company, and such other things as may appertain to said directors by law made; and provided further that said meetings shall be at the same hour and place, and shall be a joint meeting of the two companies and said joint meeting shall elect a Chairman and Secretary. JOHN HUNGER The sailors regain the boat and take their place on the peribus perch to which the others were clinging. All this time the breakers were dashing with great force over the boat and it was evident that some of the number would be washed off unless specially reserved. As soon as the alarm was green a number of men hastily drowned bathing out and made preparations to take a line on the boat so to pull it to the shore. The only available small boat was sank by Capt. Wilson and George Hull, and it was smashed through the breakers with great skill and without a moment's unnecessary delay, for both men knew the channel thoroughly and expert beatmen. They needed up linen Storm, who was floating about supported by an ear, and then proceeding to the boat took off Fritz Benzmann, who being not strong physically, was rapidly encumbling to the moraines buffeting of the breakers and chilling cold of the water. Short than these two could not be taken in the free boat in such a sea and as the tale was turning out, they could not return as they came back had to make a detour of over a mile before they could land the two men they had rescued. In the recessime, the effort to reach the boat with a torse was being made. No one rope being found long enough, Lionel Breitung, Charles Higgins, E.J.J. Schmolt and others took one rope and started for the seat, and in a few minutes thereafter another rope was taken out by R.J. Northam, Al Upson, handell and others who lent a walking hand. The first rope was granched in the order worn and Northern and Upon were the two thyrsos on the second one. The latter swirled within a few feet of Mr. Schmidt, tailed him this kind of oar and told him to tie the last together. Then swam back to assist in hauling the ropes not noticed that Schmidt was exerting and needing help. Mr. Northam observed it however and saw him throw up his hands and call for help. He called to Schmidt to keep up and to stimulate him to greater effort he drew upon his knowledge of艇istics and hatred a whole vocabulary of actions and vigorous English at hon. But he wore too tar gone to be stimulated in this way, and when Northern swam out and grasped him he was entirely unconscious and helpless. A dozen men were seen carrying the immature form to shore, where quite fortunately, Mrs. Dr. Higgins stood facing the spectators. He was stretched on the beach, and under the Doctor's skilled treatment he regained consciousness in about fifteen minutes. After being carried to his house, it needed brisk manipulation for over an hour to restore warmth to his chilled and nervous body. While this distressing episode was being enacted the wrecked boat had turned bottom up, and the passengers were clinging to the keel. Browning and Higgins had reached the boat with the rope, which proved useless, as it had not been splined to the one at the shore end. The presence of the two named, however, stimulated with fresh courage the few on the boat whose position Church Notes Very interesting services were conducted in the Catholic church on last Sunday by Bishop Mora, who administered the rite of confirmation to thirty young ladies and gentlemen. Anchor, at which Miss Matilda Kimpan, Miss Leonard, Mrs. Schubert and Mr. Crowther are members, sang appropriate music very acceptably. LOS ANGELES MARKETS.

The Los Angeles papers give a long account of a peculiar attempt at fraud. Briefly stated, the case is this: A year ago a man named Robert Preby, who was a member of the Wrights of Honor and Legion of Honor, was reported drowned while bathing at Santa Monica. Two men, who were with him, made all favors giving a circumstantial account of the drowning, and an attempt was made to collect Proby's benefits, in favor of his wife. They amounted to $5,000 from one society and $2,000 from the other. The societies, disabling the fact of the drowning, declined to pay the benefits, and the witnesses of the reported death of Proby then disappeared. Search was kept up for the supposed dead man; and on Tuesday the suspensions of the societies were verified by his arrest at El Monte. He had wandered through Oregon, Washington Territory, and finally drifted back to the scene of his attempted fraud. He is now in jail. His wife, learning in the mean time that Proby had another wife East, returned to her people in Texas, and refuses to have anything to do with him. A display of fruits will be made by this county in San Francisco so that the Templars there assembled can judge of the county's productiveness.

Gives whole- While this distressing episode was being enacted the wrecked boat had turned bottom up, and the passengers were clinging to the keel. Browning and Higgins had reached the boat with the rope, which proved useless, as it had not been spliced to the one at the shore end. The presence of the two named, however, stimulated with fresh courage the few on the boat whose position was peculiarly helpless by reason of their inability to swim and Higgins further stimulated them by executing a sailor's hornpipe on the upturned boat. The boat, too, was gradually drifting to shallow water, and when Wilson and Hull reached the wreck on their second trip it was comparatively easy to transfer the men to the shore. They arrived at the Landing thoroughly chilled, having been in the water about two hours. Dry clothes and stimulants soon restored them, however, to their ordinary cheerfulness. Thus ended happily what at one time promised to be a peculiarly horrifying tragedy. The wives and children of some of the men stood upon the beach and witnessed their perilous situation, and their feelings during the exciting time may be imagined and need not be described. The party, as first made up, included several ladies and children, but at the last moment objection was made to their going, as in the event of an accident they would be helpless. The sequel proved the wisdom of ungallantly refusing to take the ladies, despite their protestations. Ernest Browning, Krebs, and probably one or two others, could have swam ashore, but preferred to stay by the boat and assist the others. Browning especially did much to encourage them, remaining in the water and swimming about the boat to give whatever assistance he could. Nothing can be more certain than that had not Capt. Wilson and Hull been present the Gazette this week would have contained several obituary notices. Had less strong and skillful rowers manned the boat, it is doubtful whether LOS ANGELES MARKETS.
