WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY...AUG. 16, 1884 Kleinigkeiten. The postoffice will be removed to its new location on next Monday or Tuesday. Coopers and carpenters will be interested in the advertisement headed "Sealed Proposals." Insure against fire in the first-class companies for which Richard Melrose is agent. Policies written and delivered at once. Rimpau Bros. are preparing for a clearance sale next week, and will make due announcement of some of their bargains. The new school house at Placentia will be completed next week. It is a tasty and commodious building and in keeping with the progressive neighborhood about it. A numerously signed petition was forwarded from Anaheim on last Saturday to Governor Stoneman asking him to offer a reward for the arrest of the murderers of P. W. Bras. A petition has been circulated in Los Angeles asking the Board of Supervisors to refund the money collected for licenses. Such a petition in Anaheim would receive the signature of every taxpayer. M. Dobner is again to the front in public enterprise by the erection of two additional street lamps, and in business activity by an announcement in another column, to which all readers of the GAZETTE are referred. It is understood that the Democratic County Convention will be held about September 10th. The Republican Central Committee have decided not to call their convention until after the Democracy have held Sunday's Conflagration. An alarm of fire about half past 5 o'clock on Sunday afternoon called forth the citizens to witness the destruction of the dwelling house on Auguste street owned by Mrs. Julia Luselke and occupied by John Hanna. There was no lack of willing hands ready to assist in any way, but the fire did its work so rapidly that the spectators could only watch the blazing house and stand ready to prevent the flames from doing harm to adjacent buildings. Three chairs, a sofa and a table comprised all the furniture that was taken from the house, and they, even, were scorched. About the hour indicated, Mrs. Hanna was preparing supper upon a coal, oil stove, of the Fajry Queen pattern. Noticing that the flame puffed up in a sufficient way she turned the wick down and attempted to blow it out. But the flame shot up higher and she picked up the stove and started to carry it out of doors. But the flame scorched her cheek and she either let the stove fall or the bottom dropped out, and in an instant the flames had communicated with the cloth-covered ceiling. As before stated, the fire did its work too rapidly to admit of any of the furniture being saved. It is as strange as it is fortunate that Mrs. Hanna was not severely burned by the ignition of her clothing. The house was not insured. The furniture, piano and family wearing apparel were insured in the Manufacturers of Boston, of which company Richard Melrose is local agent, for $1090. The general agents in San Francisco were apprised of the fire by telegraph on Monday morning, and at 3 o'clock in the afternoon of the same day Mr. Melrose received telegraphic instructions to adjust the bask at once. Had the usual afternoon breeze been prevailing during the fire, it is likely that the adjacent dwelling house of Mrs. Frohling would have been badly scorched. But it was uninjured, and Mrs. Frohling requests us to convey to the firemen and citizens generally her thanks for their services in assisting to preserve her property. Andy Ryan, late County License Tax THAT SOUL Reference was made a week to an article primaries Republican charging of Anaheim with the second year-old girl, who had been household. Though none of the circumstances detract takably to Mr. — was an impetition which could afford to rest unduly at once proceeded to get futation, and then to go from which the reporter, with the intention of the law to vindicate response to inquiries, threw his home in San Francisco; the girl arrived safely in she had placed her wife whom she had lived for that the girl was in good condition we have seen. He thoritative contradiction — asked the Reporter he got his information, came from the Chief objectionman, upon being asked matter, said that his Deputy Sheriff Tyler, but the Republican was a good Mr. Tyler had not sandwiched time. Mr. Tyler, on behalf of that information can be deemed a reliable december it his duty as chief of Police will heard it, so that the girl to be in Los Angeles, Furthermore, he had no story should get into thought of charging crime. He readily furried for publication in the CITY TO THE PUBLIC: As published in the Evening Journal, the questionable action of Anaheim in court posed disappearance. M. Dobner is again to the front in public enterprise by the erection of two additional street lamps, and in business activity by an announcement in another column, to which all readers of the Gazette are referred. It is understood that the Democratic County Convention will be held about September 10th. The Republican Central Committee have decided not to call their convention until after the Democracy have held theirs. The State School Fund has been apportioned. Los Angeles county, with 14,082 children, gets $21,686.28. The only counties which get an amount in excess of this are San Francisco and Alameda. The latter has 18,297 children and gets $28,177.38. It is but justice to the street sprinkling contractor to commend the efficiency with which the work is done. So far as dust is concerned the streets are in excellent condition, but attention and repair in many localities are necessary to the sidewalks in town. In a private letter a fruit commission house in New York, under date of August 1st, says: "California Barlett pears are selling here now for $6 per bushel box and plums for $3 per half bushel box. Our home crop of pears is reported a failure, so that this will prove an extra favorable season for the California product." This office is indebted to A. J. Lawton for a supply of delicious plums and figs, the first named fruit being especially fine. The receipt of a box of nectarines from Lionel Browning is also acknowledged with thanks, and a hundred or more smelt from F. J. J. Schmidt was duly appreciated. Who wouldn't be an editor? A meeting of the Republicans of Anaheim is called for next Monday evening at 8 o'clock at the Town Hall on Los Angeles street for the purpose of organizing a Republican club. H. T. Payne of Los Angeles will be present and address the club. It is hoped that there will be a large attendance, as the meeting gives promise of being a spirited one. The case of the People vs. Sanford and Phelan of Ranchito which was brought before Justice Bailey was tried on Saturday. The defendants were charged with misdemeanor in having diverted water from certain irrigating ditches crossing their land. The matter caused considerable excitement in the Ranchito neighborhood, and was sent to Anaheim to receive a dispassionate judgment. After hearing the testimony, the case was dismissed and defendants were discharged. Col. J. F. Godfrey came down Andy Ryan, late County License Tax Collector, has published a letter explaining his position in the matter which, since it has been repealed by the Board of Supervisors, is in a more tangled condition than ever. Mr. Ryan justly claims that he has simply discharged the duties imposed upon him by law, and severely criticizes the action of the Supervisors in plain words, as follows: The action of the Supervisors was somewhat peculiar, particularly those of them that went around notifying certain business men not to pay their license. Now, in conclusion, I will state the reason why I wished the Honorable Board to take action before I commenced work, towithKnowing that a majority of said Board of Supervisors were candidates for re-election I was afraid that after I commenced collecting they would not have the back-bone to stand up against outside pressure, and would face down (as they have done) and do great injustice to a large portion of the tax-payers this county. This was the cause of the delay of seven weeks after the decision was rendered, and appearing before the Board personally and petitioning in writing, and also by attorney, to take action before I commenced, by either repealing the ordinance or releasing me on my bond. It will thus be seen that I did nothing but my duty in the premises, and the inequality and injustice which has been occasioned is not due to any act of mine. Mr. Ryan collected about two-thirds of the back license. Anaheim, not being among the fortunate who were advised not to pay, is numbered among the unhappy two-thirds. A good wife is a good thing. Mr. Jim Lankershim of Los Angeles probably realizes this by indirection. Has young, handsome but indiscretely vivacious wife received the attentions of Joseph Durney, the Secretary and Treasurer of the Southern California Orange Company. As might be expected from a gentleman engaged in such avocation, he made his devoirs to the fair lady with true semi-tropical arbor, and as a result of his illegitimate wooing he was whacked over the head with a cane by the too particular Jim afresaid.* The affair occurred on last Saturday evening at the St. Elmo Hotel. Mrs. L., by the way, was the central female figure of the most prominent scandal uncovered at Santa Monica last season. The Scientific American, which is standard authority, says it is the first principle in all fire departments to adopt means best adapted to extinguish fires in their incipiency, and the greatest efforts are made to utilize time at the commencement of a fire.

Two suicides in the county on Saturday y Francisco Ocano, aged 42 years, living in Los Angeles, shot himself. He had found a purse containing some money, and failing to find the owner, spent the money. O. G. Weyse, the loser of the purse, subsequently had him arrested for petit larceny, which evidently preyed upon his mind and led him to suicide. John Richardson, aged 72 years, living on the Carter tract at San Gabriel, shot himself with a shot-gun. Financial difficulties are the reputed cause. Frederick Weedman, the night clerk of an undertaking firm in Los Angeles, committed suicide on Tuesday by taking morphine. Continued ill-health and unrequited love were the causes. We notice that the firm of Harper, Reynolds & Co. has been incorporated under the name and style of Harper & Reynolds' Co. with a capital stock of $250,000. The officers are C. F. Harper, President; C. C. Reynolds, Vice President; Robbins Little, Secretary and Treasurer, and Samuel G. Negus Purchasing Agent in New York. Few that have not been through their immense establishment, running through from Main to Los Angeles street, have not any idea of the great stock of goods they carry, or the large business they are doing. They are the agents in Southern California for a great number of specialties in builders' hardware, plumbers' supplies, household furnishing goods, etc. They carry a large stock of pipe, sheet iron, Halliday's deopwell pumps, Field's Orchard Force pumps, baling rope and wire. We believe that they have earned the large measure of success they have attained by fair and honest dealing. A fire bug has been quite actively engaged of late in the quiet community of Westminster. Not long since the attempt to fire the dwelling house of William Harper was followed by the destruction of a large quantity of haw, fired as it is supposed by phosphorus. On Thursday a third attack was made against Mr. Harper by burning a stack containing about twenty tons of hay. As yet the rascal has avoided detection, but the feeling is so strong regarding the thrice-repeated outrage that the suspicion as now directed may lead to the capture of the culprit. N. H. Mitchell of Anaheim announces in Los Angeles papers that he will be a candidate for Sheriff, subject to the action of the Republican County Convention. Col. W. E Morford of Los Angeles is an aspirant for the same office. His announcement is published to-day. He is a pushing, energetic man and will make a candidate who will strengthen the ticket. THAT SCANDAL It Melts Into Thin Air Upon Investigation. Reference was made in the Gazette last week to an article printed in the Los Angeles Republican charging a prominent citizen of Anaheim with the seduction of a fourteen-year-old girl, who had been an inmate of his household. Though no names were given, the circumstances detailed pointed unmistakably to Mr. — as the culprit. It was an imputation which no innocent man could afford to rest under, and Mr. — at once proceeded to gather evidence in refutation, and then to ascertain the source from which the reporter drew his information, with the intention of invoking the aid of the law to vindicate his good name. In response to inquiries, the matron of the Orphans' Home in San Francisco writes that the girl arrived safely in San Francisco; that she had placed her with the family with whom she had lived for three years, and that the girl was in good health. This document we have seen. Fortified with this authoritative contradiction of the charge, Mr. — asked the Republican editor where he got his information, and was told that it came from the Chief of Police. That gentleman, upon being asked concerning the matter, said that his information came from Deputy Sheriff Tyler, but that the article in the Republican was a gross exaggeration, as Mr. Tyler had not said or hinted that Mr. — was the author of the girl's misfortune. Mr. Tyler, on being interviewed, said that the information came to him from what he deemed a reliable source, and he had deemed it his duty as an officer to acquaint the Chief of Police with the story as he heard it, so that the girl, who was supposed to be in Los Angeles, could be looked up. Furthermore, he had not intended that the story should get into print, nor had he thought of charging anyone with the crime. He readily furnished the following for publication in the Gazette: TO THE PUBLIC:—As the article lately published in the Evening Republican relative to the questionable action of a respectable citizen of Anaheim in connection with the supposed disappearance of a young girl, the A Talk About Fruits The Southern California Packing Company began work on Tuesday last, and now have about one hundred and fifty men, women and girls at work in the canning department. They will probably can one hundred tons of peaches. They do not receive peaches which run less than six to the pound, nor do they want a white peach with a red center. Nectarines are not in demand in the East, and therefore few will be canned. The company want all the plums they can get. In an interview with a Times reporter the Superintendent said: "I had rather have ten acres of peaches than twenty of apricots. The reason is that apricots ripen so suddenly that they have to be handled all at once and are liable to spoil. Then, too, they are liable to glut the market, for Eastern people are not yet used to canned apricots." "There is no doubt, I suppose, that pears will continue to pay growers handsomely?" "None whatever. The crop this year is first-class and we will take all we can get at a good price. The varieties for canning are the Bartlett, which is the standard, the Flemish Beauty and the Winter Nellis. Pears will pay growers even better in the future than at present." "How is the apple crop?" "It is good; but we shall do little more with apples than to supply the market in the Territories. The Oregon crop is very heavy and we cannot compete with the East. It is rather doubtful whether apples will bring quite as good a price as last year. The home consumption is, however, increasing with the population." "Are figs likely to be profitable?" "We shall handle a few. It is rather doubtful whether we shall ever produce as good a fig as that grown in Soyryna. The White Genoa is being tried successfully here at present. They seem better adapted to this country than the Smyrna fig." "You put up some grapes last year, I believe!" "Yes, but we shall not put up so many this year. The inferior grapes put up in the northern part of the State have disgusted Eastern people with canned grapes. Our grapes are far superior to northern grapes. In time there will be a demand for them." "Are you contracting for vegetables?" "Only for tomatoes. We will handle nice tomatoes this year, and would like to contract with growers for them. Our experience with sweet corn has been very unsatisfactory. Our corn is inferior to that grown in the East." "What do you think of the small fruits?" "Blackberries will pay growers at least Facts Worth Knowing Ladies' Men's and Youths' Bathing Suits at Cahen's Grant & Ward's assets were only nominal, while their liabilities were phenomenal.

Furthermore, he had not intended that the story should get into print, nor had he thought of charging anyone with the crime. He readily furnished the following for publication in the Gazette: To the Public:—As the article lately published in the Evening Republican relative to the questionable action of a respectable citizen of Anaheim in connection with the supposed disappearance of a young girl, the subsequent revelation of which promised a sensation, etc., and as such article was evidently the outgrowth of an over zealous reporter's desire to give such story a semblance of interest, I hereby desire to state that, having heard of the matter through sources I deemed reliable, and being desirious that the case should be thoroughly investigated, I went to the Chief of Police and told him of what I had heard, asking him to investigate the matter, at the same time accusing no one of the deed, mentioning no one's name, and expressly desiring that no publicity be given the matter. Yet it seems from circumstances following the publication of such rumors that a certain gentleman of Anaheim has labored under the idea that I meant to charge him with a part in the matter and seems aggrieved thereby; therefore I desire to say that I have neither directly nor indirectly charged anyone with connection with this matter, nor do I now accuse anybody, not knowing the facts of the case. F. W. Tyler. The Republican also publishes the following: An article appeared in the Republican of Wednesday evening which recited the supposed facets in a crime said to have been committed in Anaheim, in which figured a young girl who had been taken from the Orphans' Home at Oakland, those facts having been laid before Chief of Police Cuddy. From subsequent investigations of our own we are satisfied that the crime charged had no existence, and that the girl had been returned to the Orphans' Home for good and sufficient reasons, which in no way reflect upon the girl herself or upon the people who had her in charge. No names were mentioned in the article, but attention was very disagreeably directed to a certain family in Anaheim. The information was laid before the police authorities here, and coming through that channel was published in the Republican. We regret that even in this manner we should have been led into a publication which has proved to be so disagreeable to persons who appear to have no greater or fault than that they have some very malignant enemy or enemies.

Our experience with sweet corn has been very unsatisfactory. Our corn is inferior to that grown in the East.” “What do you think of the small fruits?” “Blackberries will pay growers at least $200 per acre. Strawberries will pay well, but there is some trouble in packing them. Cutbert raspberries will always yield a handsome profit.” “From your experience and the attention you have given the matter, how do you think a free trade policy would affect Southern California fruit-growers?” “I think it would be perfectly disastrous. The cheap labor of European countries and the islands would flood America with stuff which our growers would be powerless to compete with, unless they, too, can obtain pauper labor. In France and other European countries young men can be obtained from $1 50 to $2 per week. Now what could our fruit men do with such odds against them if the bars of protection are let down?” “你 are satisfied that fruit-growing will pay otherwise?” “Certainly; one more fruit we have—that is, first-class fruit—the better price it will command. But it must be good fruit. The Eastern markets have no use for any other kind.” Senside Dance.
