WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY DEC. 29, 1883 Kleinigkeiten. The last Monday in December is the 31st, hence State and county taxes did not become delinquent last Monday, as previously announced. Water, water everywhere, and no use for it. Vast volumes of water are flowing to waste, the recent rain having the double effect of making irrigation unnecessary, and increasing the supply in the river. The rainfall which began on the 19th and ended on the 22d amounted to 1.13 inches, making the total for the season 2.84 inches. The rainfall in 1882, to the corresponding date was 1.08 inches. At the election held in Placentia district (North Anaheim) last Saturday, the vote was unanimous authorizing the issuance of $3000 in bonds to build a new school house that shall be in keeping with the progress of the district. Recent sales in Westminster have been as follows: A. Robinson, trustee, to John O. Peterson, 40 acres at $40. Same, to H. Sankey, 30 acres at $15. J. H. Kilison to James McMillan, 40 acres at $90. D. W. Saxton to Mrs. Wheeler, 20 acres at $125. Owing to the closing of Kroger's Hall the New Year's Party will not be given as before advertised. The Fire Company have taken the affair in hand and will give the ball as announced on New Year's Eve—Monday next, at their Hall in the Massone building, the proceeds to be for the benefit of Confidence Fire Company, No. 1. Anaheim Lodge No. 85, A. O. U. W., has elected the following officers: C. W. Moores, M. W.; Dr. J. S. Gardiner, Foreman; J. Yaeger, Overscery; T. S. Grimshaw, Recorder; C. E. Leonard, Financer; Win Meek, Receiver; S. A. Donis, Guide, Gee. FIELD SPORTS. A Hunter's Elysium - A Sportman's Record. To roam afield, gun in hand, in eager pursuit of game is a pleasure of which nearly everybody is more or less fond; while to some life would be a dreary bore unless they could find ample opportunity to indulge in the health-giving pastime. To the nervous person, or to those blessed with a superabundant vitality, the physical exercise necessary in hunting serves as an escape valve for the superflaws energy which, were it pent up and confined in the system, would materially hasten one's inevitable fate. Hunting is a sport against which nothing can be urged, and of which much can be said in favor; and fortunate indeed is he who, being partial to the sport, has his lines cast in places where the opportunity exists for a full indulgence of his taste. Not the least of the features which should commend Anaheim to the consideration of those who desire to settle in Southern California is the wide expanse of good hunting ground in its near vicinity. One can leave Anaheim in the morning and return at night with whetted appetite, high spirits and a heavy bag of game; this he can do during every day in the year—for game, like fruit, is here perennial. A great variety is to be found in the vicinity of Anaheim. In the mountains are deer and the Californian bear; in the foothills and on the plain quail, pigeon, hare and rabbits; and as you go toward the sea shore, to the creeks and ponds about Westminster, duck may be shot from October till March. The first to arrive from their Northern breeding places—Alaska and British Columbia—are the Pintail, Widgeon and Teal The Mallard duck, and the white and black geese make their appearance in November. The Brant geese come still later. That duck and geese are very plentiful is shown by the fact that eight or ten are often brought down by one shot, and that a bag of forty duck is not an uncommon one for a hunter. WINTER FLOOR. An Anaheim Garden thenceber. The author of that erstwhile "The cold, chilly winds of not, it is safe to say," a denial California. December here bleak or dreary about it days of warm disagreeable winters, there is no month in them been as pleasant as the one near a close. Warm, pleasant dortable nights, and a rain has been characteristic the name of which is in most world synonymous with cruiser blast. It is difficult Easterners to understand why purely aesthetic features of our such non-appreciation among the fact is that an almost during twelve months in these appetite, so to speak, and some by reason of its very superabundance of any bless what it is, is apt to lose its California winters are apprehensive fullest extent only by two chil-first—these who have lived here and experienced the wintry region and returned; seconders to the State. Those who or who have resided here have effaced from their memorial forts of winter in colder climates full credit to the glories of a formeria winter. We know of no better way readers an idea of the mildness of December than to ask them us, figuratively speaking, into more than five minutes' view Gazette office. We premise that by the term "garden" is servatories, hot houses, or an of thing, but simply an opening only by the warmth of t and exposed to all the freeways Owing to the closing of Kroger's Hall the New Year's Party will not be given as before advertised. The Fire Company have taken the affair in hand and will give the ball as announced on New Year's Eve—Monday next, at their Hall in the Masone building, the proceeds to be for the benefit of Confidence Fire Company, No. 1. Anabeim Lodge No. 85, A. O. U. W., has elected the following officers: C. W. Moores, M. W. Dr. J. S. Gardiner, Foreman; J. Yaeger, Oversher; T. S. Grimshaw, Recorder; C. K. Leonard, Financialer; Wm. Meek, Reciver; S. A. Douma, Guide; Geo. Bauer, L. W.; W. M. McFaiden, O. W.; A. K. White, Trustee; Dr. James Ellis and Dr. J. S. Gardiner, Medical Examiners. Evergreen Council, Legion of Honor, has elected the following officers: W. M. Bailey, Commander; H. Cahen, Vice Commander; Wm. Crowther, Orator; Wm. A. Witte, Secretary; F. Rumpan, Collector; Then Rumpan, Treasurer; R. Luacke, Onapam; O. Warling, Guide; M. Classon, Warden; Prod Rumpan, Seutry; Mrs. Alice Hoggers, Abelpa Rumpan, Frank Ery, Trustees; Frank Ery, Representative to Grand Council; A. Rumpan, Alternate. At the meeting of the stockholders of the Anaheim Water Company, held last Saturday, Messrs Keith, Saxton, Langember er, Rumpan and Werder were appointed a committee to draw up articles of incorporation and by caws for a consolidated company, taking as a basis the rement reported by a former committee. They are to act in conjunction with Messrs McFatteen, Crowther and Hunter, the committee of the N.A. Canal Company. The Anaheim committee will meet on Monday at 2 o'clock and the two committees will meet on Wednesday at 2 o'clock. Rev. Mr. Roberts, whose zealous efforts in benefit of the native population are worthy of commendation, is now engaged in a project which we cannot refrain from depreciating in a mild sort of way, for it is quite probable that his scheme is based upon the most worthy intentions. His plan is in brief to establish a private school where the Mexican youth shall be educated in their own language, and he is soliciting subscriptions to enable him to fit up a school house. His scheme should not be encouraged. The public school is open for the instruction of all children of school age, and many of the children who will attend his school are regular attendants at the public school. And as the apportionment of State moneys to the various districts is based upon the attendance of scholars, it is evident that if Mr. Roberts is successful in seizing pupils from the public school he will reduce the revenue of the district, which is some too large to insure a ten months term during the year. There are other fields of usefulness open to Protestant clergymen than that of running a tilt against the public school system. ANAHEIM'S OIL WELLS. In the foothills about seven miles northeast from Anaheim there is now a work going on which may yet do more to bring prosperity to this valley than any other one pursuit so far inaugurated. We allude to the prospecting for oil which for months has been energetically carried on, and which promises so well that the prospectors feel that their most sanguine expectations will in the near future be more than realized. GUSTATORY. A Possible New Year Dinner in Anaheim. He who does not revel in the pleasures of the table—who falls to extract enjoyment from a well-spread festal board, is passing through life without appreciation of one of its most attractive features. The multitude of good things which the Creator has provided for the nourishment and enjoyment of His people, however, and appreciation among the masses; and to the partaker of the feast, no less than to the good housewife who prepares it, the exquisite pleasure which a bountiful repast, flanked by goodlie companie, affords is ample recompense for many of the vexations and tribulations which come to mankind, even in Southern California. "Suppose you were to ask me to dinner on New Year's Day," said a Gazette reporter, with that charming difference characteristic of the profession, "and I were to accept only on condition that the dinner should be distinctively Californian—that is to say, prepared with materials which the Anaheim markets could supply at this time of year—what bill of fare would your ingenuity and skill suggest?" The lady thus addressed, after mature reflection, prepared the following in accordance with the plans specifica- and on the plain quail, pigeon, hare and rabbits; and as you go toward the sea shore, to the creeks and ponds about Westminster, duck may be shot from October till March. The first to arrive from their Northern breeding places—Alaska and British Columbia—are the Pintail, Widgeon and Teal The Mallard duck, and the white and black geese make their appearance in November. The Brant geese come still later. That duck and geese are very plentiful is shown by the fact that eight or ten are often brought down by one shot, and that a bag of forty duck is not an uncommon one for a hunter to make in a day's hunt. As the duck and geese shooting is beat in the morning and towards evening, the sportsman can pass the intervening time in excellent snipe shooting. Quails and rabbits are to be found in great numbers on the un cultivated lands on the outskirts of the town, and one gun can often show fifty brace as result of a day's shooting. Small game, like meadow larks, plover and pigeons, abound in largeocks everywhere, and afford amusement for sportsmen of moderate practice and skill. One of our residents, who is an ardent sportsman, and who goes out two or three times a week to make slaughter among the feathered tribe, has made the following book from the first of October till the middle of December: 14 geese, 245 duck, 36 English snipe, 184 quail, 32 rabbits and 93 pieces of other small game—a total of 604. The State law forbids the hunting of quail and duck between the 15th of March and the 15th of September, and the killing of deer between the 1st of November and the 1st of July. GUSTATORY.

In the foothills about seven miles north-east from Anaheim there is now a work going on which may yet do more to bring prosperity to this valley than any other one pursuit so far inaugurated. We allude to the prospecting for oil which for months has been energetically carried on, and which promises so well that the prospectors feel that their most sanguine expectations will in the near future be more than realized. The space at our disposal does not permit us at this time to give a history of the enterprise, nor is it essential to an understanding of the facts of the case. Suffice it to say that for more than a quarter of a century there has been a well-defined belief that oil existed in the range of hills alluded to, and spasmodic attempts to bring it to the surface have been made in a rude sort of way on several occasions. Six months ago, however, a systematic and determined plan of action was resolved upon by Messrs. Chandler & Bowers and by Mr. J. W. Snow. Each of these parties secured a large tract of the Government land whereon to operate and began sinking wells a mile apart. To day, the Chandler & Bower well is down 250 feet, and work is temporarily suspended awaiting the arrival of casing from San Francisco. The work on this well was retarded by reason of an explosion which not only did considerable damage to the well but nearly killed one of the employes. From this well several barrels of oil have been taken. The Snow well, as it is called, but which is now owned by Messrs. Snow, Bentz & Mackie, is down 220 feet, and they are now drilling through oil sand. Drilling is done by means of an engine and under the supervision of an experienced driller from the Pennsylvania oil region. This gentleman is sanguine of striking oil in paying quantities at a depth of not more than 450 feet, and as the work is being pushed ahead at all possible speed the proof of his belief will not long be delayed. One successful oil well means not only a fabulous fortune for its owners but it will give life and prominence to this vicinity, and the whole region suspected of oil bearing will be a forest of derricks. The real estate firm of Riley & Griffin of Los Angeles is commended to the attention of those who are seeking homes in this county. They are gentlemen whom we know would not mislead anyone who consult them, nor would they proffer wrong advice to those who trusted to their judgment. They have for sale land located in almost every part of the county; and, unlike other agents of whom we have heard, they vanish the merits of no particular locality nor disparage untruthfully any section of the county.

WINTER FLORA. An Anaheim Garden in Bleak December. The author of that erstwhile popular song "The cold, chilly winds of December" was not, it is safe to say, a denizen of Southern California. December here has nothing bleak or dreary about it. Barring a few days of warm disagreeable wind two weeks ago, there is no month in the year which has been as pleasant as the one now drawing to a close. Warm, pleasant days; cool, comfortable nights; and a liberal, timely rain has been characteristic of a month, the name of which is in most parts of the world synonymous with cruel cold and bitter blast. It is difficult, no doubt, for Easterners to understand why it is that the purely aesthetic features of our winters find such non-appreciation among our people; but the fact is that an almost perfect climate during twelve months in the year cloys upon the appetite, so to speak, and becomes irksome by reason of its very sameness. A superabundance of any blessing, no matter what it is, is apt to lose its charm. Southern California winters are appreciated to their fullest extent only by two classes of people: first—those who have lived here, gone East and experienced the wintry weather of that region and returned; second—the new comers to the State. Those who were born here, or who have resided here long enough to have effaced from their memory the discomforts of winter in colder climates, do not give fall credit to the glories of a Southern California winter. We know of no better way of giving foreign readers an idea of the mildness of the month of December than to ask them to accompany us, figuratively speaking, into a garden not more than five minutes' walk from the GAZETTE office. We premise by remarking that by the term "garden" is not meant conservatories, hot houses, or any of that sort of thing, but simply an open garden, fostered only by the warmth of the winter sun and exposed to all the freaks of the ele- BRIEF REPLIES To The Queries Propounded by a Correspondent A subscriber in Avon, Mo., asks an answer to the following questions regarding "your part of California." 1. Does the wind blow hard and disagreeable and considerable time? 2. Does the fog wet like dew? 3. Are you much subject to cold? 4. Is good well water easily obtained? 5. Is poultry easily raised? 6. Do roads get muddy in winter? 7. Is there a corn mill in Anaheim? 8. What is the price of wood per cord? 9. What diseases are most prevalent? 10. Do you have any ague or other malarial diseases. 11. Are gnats and mosquitoes troublesome? 12. Are housedes abundant, and do they continue all the year? ANSWERS: 1. From about the first of November until April, there is a variety of wind known as the "Santa Ana" which blows hard and is exceedingly disagreeable, inasmuch as it generally brings with it clones of dust and sand. By the expression "hard" is meant that the wind attains a velocity which to the newcomer is not specially noticeable, but which to the old resident pampered by 340 days of good weather every year, resembles a hurricane. For it should be remembered that these Santa Ana winds do not blow more than 25 days during the year (generally three days at a time) nor are they hard enough to do damage except to orange orchards unprotected by windbreaks. They occur just as the oranges are ripening, and sometimes are violent enough to blow off some of the fruit. 2. The meaning of the second query is not clear. We might answer the question, as Yankees are said to do, by asking another. Have you dry frogs in Missouri? It is to be confessed that the Anaheim article is rather down. WHAT IT COSTS To Plant a Twenty-Acre Vineyard. What will it cost to plant twenty acres in vines? is a question quite frequently asked, and from a gentleman who has kept a careful record of his expenditures since starting his 20-acre vineyard we obtain the following: JIENT YEAR. First plowing, shallow $0 00 Furrowing in squares 5 00 Water 12 00 Hire of labor for irrigating 12 00 Deep plowing 60 00 20,000 cuttings 40 00 Planting cuttings 60 00 Plowing out for second irrigation 10 00 Water and labor 24 00 Plowing in 10 00 Cultivating twice 60 00 Hoeing 20 00 $343 00 SECOND YEAR. Pruning $15 00 Plowing out 10 00 Water and labor 24 00 Plowing in 10 00 Cultivating twice 60 00 Staking—including cost of stakes, labor, rope, etc. $359 00 The expense during the third year would be a repetition of that of the second year, deducting the cost of staking, and adding $50 for additional labor. By many vineyardists stalking is considered superfluous, and that particularly heavy item of expense is dispensed with. However, when it is borne in mind that after three years, when the (redwood) stakes can be removed, they are worth from $4 to $5 per foot; it will be seen that the expense is not as large as it would at first seem. It is assumed in the above table of cost that all the work necessary is done by hired help. If one is himself a "worker," the cash expenditure will of course be materially lessened. The cost of fencing is an important item. A first-class rabbit-proof fence ought to be five feet high, goes up a 3x4 redwood, base-board of redwood plank; the upper scant- We know of no better way of giving foreign readers an idea of the mildness of the month of December than to ask them to accompany us, figuratively speaking, into a garden not more than five minutes walk from the Gazette office. We premise by remarking that by the term "garden" is not meant conservatories, hot houses, or any of that sort of thing, but simply an open garden, fostered only by the warmth of the winter sun and exposed to all the freaks of the elements. As we approach it, the cooler and powerful color of orange-blossoms is the only thing which reminds us that this is winter; for the sun is beaming brightly, the atmosphere is clear and vegetation freshened and green by reason of a recent shower, and the feathered songsters are filling the air with exhilarating chirps of gladness. Rather a queer reminder of winter, you say—this perfume of orange blossom, and the presence of the fruit itself just turning from green to golden yellow. But these are conspicuous characteristics of our winter—inevitable accompaniments of the closing month of the year. The garden as we enter it presents a paleidoscopic view of brilliant colors. Let us take a systematic census of the various kinds of flowers and of the shrubs which are perennially green. It is a formidable list: Roses, Heliotrophe, Magnonette, Carnation Pinks, Tuberoses, Altheas, Veronicas, Vines, Forget me not, Rhododendrons, Clematis, Begoniaus, Bouvardia, Narcissus, Daphne, Magnolia, Fuschia, Palms (sev'l varieties) Castles, Hebrotanums, Pampas Grass, Abutilon, Gardenia, Thrysanthemum, Hibiscus, Wax Plant, Perianums, Polargonium, Orcaena, Pansies, Santanas, Laurustinus. Three-fourths of all the flowers mentioned on the above list are blooming on the day of our visit, and when it is remembered that many of the plants—such as roses and geraniums—are present in dozens of varieties, some idea can be formed not only of the health of flora in the garden but of the gentility of the December weather which encourages the growth of such tender forms of plant life as is above enumerated. And gardens such as this are met with all over the country. On this 29th day of December, it is possible to step into one of them and pick flowers for a hundred bouquets, no two of that these Santa Ana winds do not blow more than 25 days during the year (generally three days at a time) nor are they hard enough to do damage except to orange orchards unprotected by windbreaks. They occur just as the oranges are ripening, and sometimes are violent enough to blow off some of the fruit. 2. The meaning of the second query is not clear. We might answer the question, as Yankees are said to do, by asking another. Have you dry fogs in Missouri? It is to be confessed that the Anaheim article is rather daunting. 3. For an answer to this query, we refer our correspondent to the thermometrical records published in another column. 4. Surface water can be procured at a depth of from twenty-five to thirty feet. The wells in most common use, however, are iron pipe wells of a depth of from ninety to one hundred feet, and the water supply is abundant and of a quality which leaves nothing to be desired. The well operated by the town government, and which supplies a large portion of the people, is but ninety feet in depth. 5. Poultry is quite easily raised, and is one of the most profitable industries pursued in this county. There are some facts and figures concerning poultry given in another column. 6. No. Twenty four hours after a rain, it may be said that the mind disappears. The best driving is almost immediately after a rainfall. 7. Yes. A steam corn sheller is operated by Messrs. Saxton & Cox at their lumber yard near the railroad depot. 8. Eight to ten dollars per cord for oak wood, cut into foot lengths. 9. No disease is especially prevalent. Read Dr. Ellis article on the first page. 10. In some parts of the county there are to be found ague and malarial fevers of a mild type, but not in Anaheim. 11. Gnats are not troublesome; mosquitoes prevail to some extent in summer, but are not specially numerous. 12. Houseless are abundant in summer only. CHURCHES. One of the first questions asked by those who have been attracted by our climate and fruits is, "What are your church privileges?" To all such we are able to say that they are equal to those of any other town of similar size in the East. Below we give a list of the churches in Anaheim: The First Presbyterian church was organized in 1870. At that time it had nine members. During the thirteen years of its existence it has had a total of ninety-nine members. There are now forty-nine names on the roll of the church. Among them are some absences. The present active membership is thirty-four. The church has been supplied from time to time by the following: Rev. L. P. Webber, who died here in 1874; Rev. J. M. Allis, now Missionary in Valparaiso; Rev. P. D. Young, now residing in Orange; Rev. J. A. Mitchell, now preaching in Los Alamos; Rev. E. Haliday, now residing in Orange; and Rev. S. B. King, now preaching in Santa Maria, Rev. F. H. Robb ever, when it is borne in mind that after three years, when the (redwood) stakes can be removed, they are worth from $4 to $5 per loaf; it will be seen that the expense is not as large as it would at first seem. It is assumed in the above table of cost that all the work necessary is done by hired help. If one is himself a "worker," the cash expenditure will of course be materially lessened. The cost of fencing is an important item. A first-class rabbit-proof fence ought to be five feet high, posts of 3x4 redwood, baseboard of redwood plank, the upper scantling of Oregon pine, and the lath should be half inch and fastened with four nails. Such a fence will cost— For twenty acres.....$21 per acre. For forty acres.....14 "" For eighty acres.....5.75" Mr Mortimer, the British Vice Consul in Los Angeles, has received a request from a merchant doing business in Leith and Glasgow, Scotland, to put him in communication with dealers in canned fruits as he desires to introduce California canned fruits in Scotland. Mr Mortimer states that the merchant is doing a large business, and believes the opportunity a good one to open up a new market for our canned fruits. BORN.

And gardens such as this are met with all over the country. On this 29th day of December, it is possible to step into one of them and pick flowers for a hundred bouquets, no two of which need be essentially alike. FRATERNAL SOCIETIES. Secret fraternal societies seem to flourish in Anaheim in a greater degree than is usual in towns of its size. There are six such societies; and, as far as we are aware, all are rospering, and accessions to the membership are of constant occurrence in most of the lodges. There are two commodious lodge rooms—the Masonic Hall and the Old Fellows' Hall, the latter being the meeting place of five of the lodges. The list of societies is as follows: Anaheim Lodge No. 207, F. and A. M., has a membership of 29. Regular meetings are held on the Monday of or preceding the full moon in each month. Anaheim Lodge No. 99, I. O. O. F., has a membership of 41. Meeting held every Tuesday evening. Orpheus Lodge No. 237, I. O. O. F., conducts its work in the German language. It has a membership of 18, and meets every Thursday evening. Anaheim Lodge No. 85, A. O. U. W., meets on the first and fourth Mondays of the month. Its membership numbers 55. Magnolia Council No. 94, O. C. F., meets every alternate Saturday and has 63 members. Evergreen Council No. 808, Legion of Honor, has 28 members, and its regular meeting nights are the second and last Mondays in the month. It may be mentioned here that there has been recently organized a branch of the chatauqua Literary and Scientific Circle, which holds regular monthly meetings in which increasing interest is being taken. After a prolonged illness, Mrs. Martha Hill, who for many years resided in Anaheim, died in Los Angeles on Saturday. The remains were interred in the Anaheim cemetery on Monday, and many of the old residents testified their respect by assembling at the depot and accompanying the remains from thence to the cemetery. The First Presbyterian church was organized in 1870. At that time it had nine members. During the thirteen years of its existence it has had a total of ninety-nine members. There are now forty-nine names on the roll of the church. Among them are some absentees. The present active membership is thirty-four. The church has been supplied from time to time by the following: Rev. L. P. Webber, who died here in 1874; Rev. J. M. Allis, now Missionary in Valparaiso; Rev. P. D. Young, now residing in Orange; Rev. J. A. Mitchell, now preaching in Los Alamos; Rev. E. Hailiday, now residing in Orange; and Rev. S. B. King, now preaching in Santa Maria. Rev. F. H. Robinson now in charge began his labors here in August, 1881, and was installed pastor in June 1883. The elders of the church are E. A. Saxton and A. Holdridge. Its Trustees are J. B. Pierse, P. Pellegrin and C. W. Moores. Its Treasurer is P. Pellegrin. Regular services are held in the church three times each week. Preaching every Sunday at 11 A.M. and 7:30 P.M. The Sunday school convenes at 9:45 A.M. The social prayer and praise service is held on Wednesdays at 7:30 P.M. The Second Presbyterian church was organized in September, 1882. The object was to establish religious work among the Spanish population. The organization was effected by Rev. Carlos Bransby, of Los Angeles, Presbyterian missionary to the Spanish in Los Angeles Presbytery. For a few months Rev. H. L. Harris, now preaching to the Spanish in San Francisco, acted as missionary to this church. One year ago Rev. J. M. Roberts came here from New Mexico and is now engaged as the pastor. A lot has been secured and a suitable building has been purchased which will be moved in a few days. The church is now on a good basis and is prospering. St. Michael's Episcopal church is one of the handsomest church buildings in the State. Rev. H. J. Sheridan is pastor, and services are held every Sunday morning and evening. The loud and silver-toned bell which sumuons worshippers to this church was presented as a memorial by the father of Charles Balch, a young man who, in assisting to decorate the church with evergreens for the Christmas services two years ago, accidentally cut his wrist and died from loss of blood a few days later. The German Evangelical Association, of which Rev. Mr. Green is pastor, holds services every Sunday in Kroeger's Hall. It has a membership of sixteen, and the erection of a church is contemplated. The German Methodists erected a very neat church during the past year, and Rev. Mr. Bollinger holds services every Sunday morning. The Methodist Episcopal congregation, Rev. A.L.Dearing pastor, holds services every Sunday afternoon. The Catholics have a neat church, of which Rev.V.Foran is pastor. Services are held every Sunday and the congregation is usually a large one. Mr.Foran preaches occasionally in Upper Santa Ana.
