WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY...NOV. 24, 1883 Kleinigkeiten. County and town taxes become delinquent on the fourth Monday in December. The building of a large and substantial house on the Shanklin ranch has just been completed by S. B. Smith. In getting on the cars at Anaheim depot on Monday morning, C. H. Arthur sprained his ankle so severely that it will be many weeks before he can walk unaided. Our former townsman D. E. Miles has received the nomination for Councilman from the Fourth Ward, Los Angeles. Mr. Miles was at one time an able-bodied member of the Anaheim Town Trustees. Master Eddie Leonard had his right arm broken on Wednesday by falling from a pony on which he was riding. The little man bears his sufferings bravely, and will, we hope, be all right in a few weeks. A ball was given at Kroeger's Hall last evening under the management of the young men of the town. As this paper went to press before the event, a report is impossible. A meeting of stockholders in the Cemetery Association will be held this afternoon, to reorganize the Board of Directors. All owners of lots in the cemetery are stockholders in the association. At the Washington Market a specialty is made of head cheese, bologna sausage and other delicacies. By giving your order to the driver of the delivery wagon, you will be promptly supplied with whatever you require. The Herald says that below the city, about six miles from the Court House, where the water is near the surface, there have been several white frosts during the present week. There was at one time a town ordinance which imposed a penalty for driving sheep, cattle or horses through the streets within the corporate limits, but in the last revision of the ordinances this particular one was omitted, probably unintentionally. It is safe to say that no band of sheep can be driven through the streets without some of the aligning vineyards suffering damage from them; and while it is true that the victims have a remedy in a proceeding under the State law against the owner of the sheep, it is also true that such action is unpleasant and repulsive to many men, who would rather submit to be injured than take the prescribed method of obtaining reparation. In return for the municipal taxes which the vineyardists pay, they ask that the duty of protecting their property against such invasions devolve upon the proper officer, and we are asked to urge upon the Trustees the propriety of re-enacting the ordinance before referred to. The vineyard of Mr. Wilkens was badly damaged by sheep on last Saturday. A somewhat remarkable occurrence happened some weeks ago which, through inadvertence, we tailed to take note of at the time. The horses hitched to Mr. Conrad's wagon, on which were pipes of wine weighing 3000 pounds, became restive, and he sprang forward to hold them. As he did so the hind wheel of the wagon passed over his foot. There was but one conclusion to arrive at, and that was that the combined weight of the wagon and load—over 4000 pounds—had crushed the foot to a jelly. A physician was summoned, and in fifteen minutes after the foot had been plunged into hot water the pain had disappeared, and Conrad was able to walk around, with but a slight limp. The explanation of his escape from serious injury probably lies in the fact that the accident occurred at a very sandy part of the road, and that the foot, instead of being crushed, was pressed into the sand. This case is almost parallel with that of the other Anaheim man who some years ago attempted to knock the locomotive off the track and still lives to tell the tale. Over a year ago mention was made in the Gazette of an improved drill for well-boring, the invention of J. A. Woodhouse of Las Bolsas. Since that time he has improved and perfected the drill so as to make it another Water Depot. The findings and decrees in the case of the Anaheim Water Company against the Cajon Irrigation Company been filed. The gist of the decision en in a letter to Mr. Scott, is that heheim Water Company is entitled full of water to its utmost head thereof, or so much there necessary to supply the wants of tants of the 1165 acres; that Company is not compelled to ditch; and that neither party has for costs." Whether this decision is a vague plaintiff and a defeat for the plaintiff and a vague defendant, is a question which coagitation, we are unable to answer. He must indeed be a vague Tapley who can find in it any jolly over. It is a decision strengthen anew the idea which nearly prevailed—that the one and permanent method of points in dispute is to come to without the intervention of those have had enough of decisions we decide. Tossed about from our point to another, every impalement to the breach, and draws more community.

By giving your order to the driver of the delivery wagon, you will be promptly supplied with whatever you require. The Herald says that below the city, about six miles from the Court House, where the water is near the surface, there have been several white frosts during the present week, while in the city the temperature was at the lowest point, ten degrees above the freezing point. The wife of Frank Kickey, residing at 230 Spring street, Los Angeles, committed suicide by taking arsenic. She took the dose on Sunday and died on Wednesday. The deceased was thirty years of age and the mother of three children. Her husband had deserted her. The death of Henry Finck on Wednesday had been expected for some time. He has been ailing ever since his return from Europe, and the disease to which he finally succumbed gradually and steadily asserted itself. Mr. Finck was a popular and well-liked man, of kindly impulses and straightforward character. The funeral yesterday morning was very largely attended. The surveyors are busy setting the grade atakes along the line of the Los Angeles and San Gabriel Valley Railroad, the new line narrow gauge. By the first of December grading will begin and in the early spring the neighing of the iron horse will startle the echoes around Pasadena. Mrs. Amaden has been found guilty of being accessory to the murder of her husband. She was to have been sentenced yesterday. The highest penalty for the crime is imprisonment for five years. The trial of Mrs. Greenleaf, also on the charge of being an accessory to the crime, will begin in a few days. Mr. H. C. Kellogg returned to town a few days ago, and is again prepared to attend to all orders for surveying. For the past two months he has had entire charge of the subdivision of 5000 acres of land on the Laguna rancho, 93 miles from San Diego, on the C.S.R.R. The tract has been surveyed into small farm lots and a town site, to which the name "Elsinore" has been given. Water for irrigation has yet to be developed by tunneling. The well known Marengo Rancho, in the San Gabriel Valley, changed hands yesterday for $100,000. It was transferred from the Land and Loan Company to Mr. Burke, and by Burke to H.D.Bacon at the same that the accident occurred at a very sandy part of the road, and that the foot, instead of being crushed, was pressed into the sand. This case is almost parallel with that of the other Anaheim man who some years ago attempted to knock the locomotive off the track and still lives to tell the tale. Over a year ago mention was made in the Gazette of an improved drill for well-boring, the invention of J.A.Woolhouse of Las Bolsas. Since that time he has improved and perfected the drill so as to make it applicable for drilling oil wells. We have not the knowledge of mechanics necessary to enable us to describe it minutely; but, in brief, it consists of a rotary drill, from the sides of which a series of side drills project automatically, so that as the drill works below the pipe it makes a seven-inch hole for a six inch pipe. Such being the case, but slight pressure is needed to force the pipe down, hence a single tabbing can be forced down a thousand feet if necessary. Mr. Woodhouse has a patent for his invention, and it is to be hoped that the owners of oil wells will assist him to practically demonstrate the utility of what he is assured by competent men is a most valuable invention. At an impropitu meeting of commercial travelers held in Los Angeles a few days ago, a letter was written and subscribed to by all present highly complimentary to the management of the Planters' Hotel in Anaheim, and cordially recommending the house and its proprietor to the fraternity. The letter was published in the city press, and the testimonial, being un solicited, is all the more appreciated by Mr. Knapp. The following real estate transactions are reported: Alfred Robinson, trustee, to John Gomes — W 20 acres of NE; of SW; see 17, T 3 S, R 11 W; $500. Altred Robinson, trustee, to William A Sackett — N 20 acres of SW; of NE; see 2, T 4 S, R 12 W; $640. The members of the Fire Department desire us to state that the ringing of the alarm on the fire bell, to which reference was made last week, was done without the knowledge or consent of the department, and that they totally disavow any sympathy or connection with the offending parties. The Farmer's Ditch Company of Orange-thorpe have finished cleaning and strengthening their ditch, and winter irrigation in that district will begin in a few days. Station agent Darling has obtained leave of absence and has gone to Mexico. He will probably not return for a couple of months.

The findings and decree of Judge Rolfe in the case of the Anaheim Water Company against the Cajon Irrigation Company have been filed. The gist of the decision, as given in a letter to Mr. Scott, is that "the Anaheim Water Company is entitled to a ditch full of water to its utmost capacity at the head thereof, or so much thereof as may be necessary to supply the wants of the inhabitants of the 1165 acres; that the Anaheim Company is not compelled to use the Cajon litch; and that neither party have judgment for costs." Whether this decision is a victory for the plaintiff and a defeat for the defendant, or a defeat for the plaintiff and a victory for the defendant, is a question which, after a week's negotiation, we are unable to answer definitively. He must indeed be a veritable Mark Tapley who can find in it anything to be colly over. It is a decision which must strengthen anew the idea which at one time nearly prevailed—that the only satisfactory and permanent method of adjusting the points in dispute is to come to an agreement without the intervention of the courts. We have had enough of decisions which do not decide. Tossed about from one legal spike to another, every impalement but increases the breach, and draws more blood from the community. It really does seem as if the people have been bled enough, and that the time has arrived to adopt different remedies for whatever troubles they are afflicted with. Webster defines the word "compromise" to be "an adjustment of differences by mutual concessions." Cannot the parties litigant better afford to make mutual concessions and agree upon a settlement, than to expend money in appealing this case? The ignoble end of the last appeal in which the Anaheim Company was interested but precludes the probable outcome of an appeal in the present case—the Supreme Court will in effect quote the age of a fool and his money, and tell the people that they had better "compromise upon some equitable basis." Very good advice, but there is no use in spending any great amount of money to get it. Act upon it now, and at once reap the benefits to be derived from giving a quietus to these dissensions, rather than further prosecute the case and at the end of a year or two find ourselves poorer, and the real question no nearer solution than before. Compromise now, and not wait for Judge Ross to Shinn on Apples. At the last meeting of the State Horticultural Society, James Shinn read a paper on apples, in which he said: There is no reason to doubt that all of our present high grades of apples are the progeny of the wild crab, which is indigenous to nearly the entire temperate zone. The crab itself, too, has been greatly improved. Among the early importation of fruit trees to this State the apple tree was always prominent. Among them were varieties that were not suited to our climate and soils, which accounts for the inferior qualities which have done so much to lower the general standard of apples in our State. However, good apples can be grown in every county in this State, and in fact they are now being successfully grown, and profitably, too, by many fruit growers. The intelligent labors of the Horticultural Society of this State has done much and is still doing much to destroy the many insect enemies of the apple trees, and there is reason to suppose that soon the apple orchards will be entirely free from the pests. It is well known that any soil that will grow good wheat will grow good apples. Apple orchards should be kept clean, mellow, and nothing else should be grown therein. I should like to repeat that last three times. [Laughter.] The question of what variety should be grown is an important one. The necessity of growing only the best has been made apparent to any one who has studied the city market. The Baldwin and Spitzenberg are hardly fitted for the coast counties. The planter must resolutely limit the number of varieties he plants. Whatever excuses the early planters had for planting unsuitable varieties cannot be pleaded now, as the planter can always now have the best varieties to select from, and only those should be planted. The planter must bear in mind that the question of whether the purchaser will ever learn that the color and the size of the apple does not determine its quality, is one that the very far distance will alone determine. A Fentian's Dejance. DUBLIN, November 20.—Joseph Poole was today convicted of the murder of Kenny. Before he was sentenced Poole spoke at length in earnest and at times excited tones. He emphatically denied that he murdered Kenny. He admitted he was a member of the Fenian Brotherhood, and said he would be proud to go to the scaffold for being a Tank Measurement. J. De W. C. writes to the Scientific American: In my business it is sometimes necessary to ascertain the number of gallons in square tanks or cisterns, and in circular. What do you consider a convenient rule for determination of contents in gallons? And what species of gallon is understood? I am confused by certain tables in my possession, which state that "the wine gallon must contain 231 cubic inches," and in another place a gallon is said to contain "277½ cubic inches," although the bushel in same table is put down at "2,150¼ cubic inches," and again at "2150.42 cubic inches." The following answer is given: The United States legal gallon contains 231 cubic inches. To compute contents in gallons of round tanks: Square diameter in feet, multiply by 0.7855, and again by the depth in feet, and multiply by 7.48, this latter being the number of gallons in one cubic foot. For tanks of square or rectangular outline, multiply together the length in feet of both sides and multiply result by depth of tank in feet and again, as above, by 7.48. BORN.

Michael's Church: GENTLEMEN: I hereby announce to you that I have resigned to the Bishop the charge of this church which I have held for something over three years and a half. It has been a period of depression—many families have moved away; but I trust others will come in to take their places. I believe that in the near future there will be a large immigration here, and I hope you and all the members of the Mission will do all in your power to support my successor, to keep up the services, to build up the church in this place. Thanking you personally for the assistance you have given me in managing the temporalities of the Mission, and with earnest prayers to the Great Head of the church that life will in all things bless and protect this portion of His book. I am Faithfully Yours, JOHN A. EMERY. No action has yet been taken upon the resignation. Mr. Emery's future movements are uncertain. He has under consideration several calls which have been extended to him, but has not yet decided upon the acceptance of any. His departure from Anaheim will be generally regretted. Mr. Emery will preach his farewell sermon no-morrow evening. There will be preaching in the Presbyterian church to-morrow at 11 A.M. and 7:30 P.M. Rev. Mr. Green, of the Evangelical Association, will preach in German every Sunday at 2:30 P.M. in Kroeger's Hall. Sunday school at 1:30 P.M. Rev.

Before he was sentenced Poole spoke at length in earnest and at times excited tones. He emphatically denied that he murdered Kenny. He admitted he was a member of the Fenian Brotherhood, and said he would be proud to go to the seafold for being a member. Its object was not to commit murder, but to free Ireland from the tyrannical rule of England. He believed he was prosecuted because he was an enemy of the Government under which he had lived. Poole acknowledged being in Kenny's company on the night of the murder, but declared he had no hand in striking him down. He had longed to the Brotherhood since he was 16 years of age, but had never belonged to the Vigilance Committee. His purpose was to wait until his countrymen were prepared to strike a blow for independence, when he would co-operate with them. In conclusion he said: "I am not afraid to die. Farewell all—farewell Ireland! Three cheers for the Irish republic! Death to English tyranny!" Poole was then sentenced to be hanged on December 18th. The judge in passing sentence upon the prisoner was deeply affected. He said the evidence left the jury no alternative and he quite concurred in the verdict of guilty. Poole's father wept aloud, exclaiming: "Oh! Joe, Joe!" The prisoner replied, falteringly: "Keep up, father—keep up. Don't give way. I am ready to die." LOS ANGELES MARKETS.

All druggists should be honorable gentleman, and we are inclined to believe the majority of them are; but there are what is called "black sheep" in all professions. We came across one of the latter class not long since. While in his store a customer asked for Ammen's Cough Syrup. As the druggist was doing it up for him he said: "I have a preparation which I can recommend as better than this." The man said, "I will take that then, but my friends have spoken so highly of Ammen's Cough Syrup I thought I would try it." Now, the writer having used Ammen's Cough Syrup, and knowing its virtues, also knowing its manufacturer, and that he put it on the market for the benefit of mankind, as well as for the sake of gain, had some curiosity to learn why the druggist preferred to sell some other remedy to it. So we asked him why it was. Imagine his reply! He said: "Why I make just eight cents more on the bottle I sold him than I would have made on Ammen's." I said, "Oh that’s it." "Yes," he says, "I always recommend and try to sell what pays me the largest profit." Comment is unnecessary. Let us hope that there are but few like him in the drug business. Meeting the customer a few days later, and desiring to know if that kind of business paid, we mentioned the circumstance to him, and asked if the bottle of medicine the druggist recommended did him any good. He said, "No, I used about one third of it, and threw it away; I then went to another drug store and bought a bottle of Ammen's Cough Syrup which cured my cold." We asked: "Why did you go to another druggist?" He replied: "Because I shall never spend another cent with that man." Backien's Arnica Salve.
