An Artful Dodger of the genus known as the change fiend plied his profession one day this week at the business places about town without a victim. Finding a barren field for his little game, his departure was sudden for Santa Ana.
The dog pound is in full blast under the direction of Marshal Bohn as head ring master, and is the centre of attraction for the small boy. Owners of dogs must now beware the argus-eyed majesty of the law in the person of the town marshal.
A Republican campaign paper will shortly be issued at San Pedro. Gen. Brierly will be editor, and as he knows as much, if not more, than anyone else of matters political, the paper will be an interesting and lively one.
On next Friday, the 27th instant, the Anaheim public schools will close for the regular summer vacation of ten weeks. The usual examination of pupils will be held on next Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, and parents and all others interested are invited to be present.
The County Board of Education have adopted the following text books for use in the schools: Bancroft's first, second, third, fourth and fifth Readers, Robinson's Arithmetic, Thompson's Intellectaal Arithmetic, Thompson's Practical Algebra, Swinton's Language Lesson, Swinton's English Grammar and Composition. The following books now in use were re-adopted: Swinton's Word Book and New Word Analysis, Harpers' Introductory and School Geographies, Maury's New Physical Geography, Anderson's United States History, Bartholomew's Drawing, Dunton & Scribner's Copy Book, Henderson's Test Words, Gray's How Plants Grow, Young's Government Class Book and Bryant & Straffton's Book Keeping.
The Los Angeles Herald has obtained information relative to the effect of the late rain upon crops by interviewing representatives from different sections of Southern California, which goes to show that the benefits resulting are far greater than the damage. The loss to the hay crop was confined chiefly to an increase of labor in securing it. Growing grain in some localities was lodged, while late-sowed grain was greatly benefited. To late-planted vines, estimated in number at five millions, the rains were of great value. Upon the whole the balance of the estimates of damage and benefit amounts to much more than one million of dollars.
On Friday of last week, a cyclone in miniature passed over Pasadena, doing great damage to the orchards in its path. The damage was done principally by the hail which fell during the passage of the cloud, the leaves and fruit being entirely stripped from the trees and vines. It is such incidents as this which deprives somewhat of its absurdity the native theory mentioned in the extract from the Tribune, printed on the first page. If it is true that the climate of Southern California has changed since its settlement by Americans, may it not also be true that the cyclones of Indiana have been drawn hither by some subtle influence surrounding the Hoosiers of Pasadena?
Mr. Wm. M. McFadden, of North Anaheim, was in the city yesterday in attendance on a meeting of the County Board of Education. While coming to town he drove over three miles of road below Fulton Wells that were covered with little toads, about Water.

Heavy freight teams loaded with the traps, tools and camp utensils belonging to thirty Chinamen with the Celestials themselves left on Thursday morning from San Si Wau's headquarters for work on the ditches belonging to the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Co.
Fulton Wells has been purchased by a syndicate composed of M. L. Wicks, Dr. Widney, R. M. Widney, J. M. Griffith, B. F. Coulter, 1. R. Dunkelberger and C. E. Thom. The new management will not make the water more pleasant to the taste nor more agreeable to the smell, but it will popularize the resort and make it famous.
The beautiful town residence known as the Seibert place has been purchased by Mr. Stoddard from Minnesota and is now occupied by his family. The house and grounds are fitted up and adorned with exquisite taste, and the owner is to be congratulated upon securing one of the finest residences in Southern California.
There is no one thing upon which individual fancy can have so wide a play as upon the color of paint; and to the man who is about to have his house painted the question of color is one of serious import and of great cogitation. It generally results in the matter being left entirely to the painter, and that is probably the best and easiest solution of the matter. The painter at whose hands the houses of Anaheim have been undergoing a transformation of late has an artist's eye for color. The neat cottage of Mr. Wille is an especial tribute to his handiwork and taste, and should serve as a model for others.
This item, from the San Diego Union, is for the special information of Rev. Mr. Shoridan, whose church is besieged with bees: "Rev. Dr. Dodge says she is not now troubled very much with the half-dozen swarms of bees that took possession of his premises some weeks ago. To rid his place of their presence he has adopted the use of the shotgun and blank cartridge. By firing into them, the concussion being so great, thousands of them can be killed at one shot. The chimney in the house and every place on the premises where they alighted has been honey-combed."
Mr. Wm. M. McFadden, of North Anaheim, was in the city yesterday in attendance on a meeting of the County Board of Education. While coming to town he drove over three miles of road below Fulton Wells that were covered with little toads, about one-fourth grown. The whole ground was closely covered with them, and thousands were killed by the horses and wagon of Mr. McFadden, as he drove along the road on the way to the city. He wants to know why this is thus, and where the creatures came from?—Herald.

Through the courtesy of Asst. Superintendent Hewitt of the S. P. R. R., the circular advertising Anaheim is being effectively distributed by the train boys on the incoming Eastern immigrant trains. The railroad company's immigration commissioner at Chicago has also been supplied with several thousand of the circulars, also the California Immigration Association, whose headquarters are at San Francisco.
The large and brilliant company present at the residence of Mrs. Sheffield on Thursday evening thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment furnished by the ladies of St. Michael's church. The grounds were illuminated with Chinese colored lanterns. The house was decorated with flowers, such as this land only can produce. The company was gay. The music enlivening. The young ladies enchanting. The refreshments excellent and everyone happy.
There is a good prospect for apiarists this season, and there will be an unusual demand for honey barrels. To fill that demand the Anaheim cooper, C. Wille, has made a large number of half barrels which he will sell for $1.75 each—a very cheap price.
A flock of seven hundred turkeys were turned into two vineyards in Fresno to destroy the myriads of caterpillars and grasshoppers which were devastating the vines.

We notice that "Etiwanda has been utilizing the electric light for a novel purpose," viz: in hunting jack rabbits. This sounds very scientific. Strangers might infer that the Etiwandians are advanced soarers in the highest realms of science, and the Vassar secress think it just too awfully nice for anything to hunt rabbits with lightning, while the practical observer would naturally connect jack rabbits with cacti, sage brush and barren wastes where the electric light could be useful only for jackrabbit hunters or—to the projectors of a colony scheme as an advertisement.
Near Rock House, San Diego county, last week, Ida Clark, aged 8 years, grandchild of W. J. Clark of Anaheim, fell into a well in her father's yard. There was sixteen feet of water in the well, and on coming to the surface after the first plunge the child grasped a projecting plank and held tightly to it. Her little brother, Frank, aged 3 years, ran to the house to tell the mother of the mishap, and the letter describing the accident says: "She put Fred "(aged 5) in a bucket and let him down in 'the well,' and he stepped on the board and 'it gave way with him,' and he held with 'one hand to the pump and with the other 'he held Ida by the arm and kept her above 'water until Uncle Dan came and rescued 'them.' Ida was considerably bruised." Quite an exciting adventure for such young folk.

A flock of seven hundred turkeys were turned into two vineyards in Fresno to destroy the myriads of caterpillars and grasshoppers which were devastating the vines. The experiment was successful. Thanksgiving dinners will bear in mind this opportunity for procuring material.
The present season bids fair to equal the "year without a summer," described on the first page of to-day's paper. It is now the tail end of June and there has not yet been a genuine summer day. The phenomenon can only be accounted for on the hypothesis that this is an exceptional year.
The firemen's ball to be given on the Fourth of July promises to eclipse all former efforts of the Anaheim fire laddies. The engagement of Wangeman's orchestra indicates that the committee intend to provide the best of entertainments.
A jet black squirrel has been captured in one of the Anaheim vineyards. The fact is respectfully referred to the compilers of the next edition of Audibon's natural history.
A troupe of Jubilee Singers gave a performance last evening to a large audience. The quaint and inimitable music rendered by these performers has an attraction peculiarly its own.
"Healthier" is the name given to the London Health Exhibition by the London cochneya.
Water Development.
Capt. Healey, the engineer employed by the owners of the Stearns ranches, is now engaged in running levels to ascertain whether the Cajon ditch can carry water on to La Habra rancho. There can be little doubt that the grade of the ditch is such as to permit of water being carried to that rancho, and there is still less doubt that, with an abundance of water, there is no part of the county which would be more fertile than La Habra.
In these preliminary steps of the so-called Land Company, we see great cause for congratulation. They do not own the Cajon ditch; they do not own any water. It is true they assert some kind of ownership to a portion of the ditch, and assuming that their title is clear, ciei bono? A ditch without water is a very undesirable piece of property. There is only one way in which the magnificent rancho referred to can be made profitable and productive, and that is by the owners developing, or helping to develop, water in the Santa Ana river. It is in the possibility of such a scheme that we find cause for congratulation. All engineers agree that there can be a vast amount of water developed in the river bed and brought to the surface, but the expense of the work has heretofore discouraged all efforts in that direction. The Santa Ana Company, which is in dire need of more water, finds the undertaking too formidable; the Anaheim Company is still less able to undertake it; but these two companies, reinforced by the owners of La Habra, can confidently embark in the enterprise with the full knowledge that no onerous tax will be imposed upon any individual. The three corporations named have a peculiarly common interest in securing more water for irrigation purposes. The two irrigation companies have not enough water, and the Land Company has none at all. If, in the conference upon this subject which is sure to be held sooner or later, sound business sense will dominate, an agreement will doubtless be arrived at whereby the work will be undertaken and the expense borne by each of the three parties to the agreement in proportion to the benefits which each will derive from the increased water supply.

An Englishwoman in Japan.
Pall Mall Casette.
In another place, at the country house of a ruined Daimio, where we obtained lodging and entertainment, I was a cause of much amusement. A number of ladies were invited to meet me at afternoon nice (the name for dinner.) They sat on their heals around the little table which I used as a chair. My feet were stretched out before me.
The hostess, with, as I took it, many apologies, began to inspect my boots. As her curiosity was keen, I drew them off. All the ladies pounced upon them, and some of them asked leave to fit them on. Before doing this they caused bowls of hot water to be fetched; washed their feet carefully, and dried them by fanning them, which made the wet evaporate quickly. As they had all children's feet, my boots were awkwardly big and more ridiculous than I can say.
The ladies next handled my skirt and corsage, and to oblige them I took them off. The petticoats had their turn, then my stockings, which they did not laugh at; after them my bankled elastic garter, and last my stays. Japanese politeness here broke down. Every one shook and cried with laughter in looking at my stays.
One of the ladies had picked up some French at Osaka, and explained to me that the others wished to know whether the stays had been invented to serve as a cuirass to protect fair Europeans from rude men, or was it worn as a penitential garment to expiate sins? I said, "No, but to beautify the figure." This answer convulsed them. A stayed-up woman affected their impressionable and well-educated eyes as something monstrously ugly and absurd. Japanese dress is beautiful and so easy.
There was yet another question to be answered. There are, so far as I know, no ows or goats in Japan. Children are not, therefore, weaned until they are big enough to go to school. I had noticed that poor little Miss Mite was an object of general commotion. I did not know why. The reason came out when my stays were being examined. They were a barrier between the mother and the child, which was cut off by them from its lactal rights. I told them that we delegated the nursing duties to poor women and cows. I am afraid that I was imperfectly translated, for I saw that for a moment I was an object of horror.

An Acknowledgment.
Office of the Immigration Association of California.
San Francisco, June 16.
Dear Sir:—We beg to acknowledge the receipt of your favor of 13th inst. and two packages of circulars descriptive of Anaheim, sent us at the request of the citizens of your city, and it will give us great pleasure to circulate these papers in the most effective way. Permit us to compliment your citizens on their enterprise and agility in bringing to the widest knowledge and more general appreciation the unexcelled advantages in soil, climate, and productions of your particular section. This Association has always taken the liveliest interest in Anaheim and its growth, and we have continually drawn the attention of our numerous correspondents and inquirers to your favored region as offering superior opportunities for making lovely homes and quickly securing a competency.
When our European Agent went abroad last summer he paid a special visit to Anaheim and vicinity, and the result of his observations was published in all the leading emigration papers of the continent and copied in many other papers, thereby giving widest publicity to the flourishing condition of the old German "home" settlement. The Anaheim Gazette has been on the files of our free reading room ever since our institution was opened, and the valuable regular articles of that paper referring to the resources and growth of your community have been seen by thousands of visitors, and were afterwards transferred to our scrap-books, likewise for the benefit of the immigrants.
We are therefore highly gratified in receiving this latest contribution to the literature about Anaheim, and have no doubt it will do a great deal of good and help us in winning many new settlers for your section. This first supply of circulars will soon be exhausted and we shall count upon getting another lot in due time.
Very respectfully yours,
C. H. STREET, Sec'y.

Santa Catalina Island.
The Gazette learns from good authority that Santa Catalina Island will be prohibited to campers this summer, on the plea that heretofore considerable damage has resulted from carelessness with fire. The resort has been steadily growing in favor, and many people will read this paragraph with chagrin and disappointment.
The island belongs to the Lick estate, and the trustees of the property offer it for sale for $100,000. A project is now being pushed which gives promise of resulting in the purchase of the island, and its transformation into a resort exclusively for the use of the purchasers. It is proposed to form a joint stock company with a capital of $200,000 in shares of a value of $1000 each. One-half the capital stock will buy the island, and with the other half a club house and adjuncts can be built and the island stocked with game, so that it will be transformed into a vast shooting ground. There is nothing chimerical in the project. The inaccessibility of the island, which is the chief objection, would doubtless be in a great measure overcome by having a swift and handsome steam launch ply between San Pedro and the island. It is said that sixty shares have already been subscribed for by gentlemen living in San Francisco, and if such is the case there is little doubt but that the project will be consummated.
