M. as a delegate from Anaheim lodge. —Ex-County Recorder Miles pleaded not guilty to the charge of embezzlement, and That Water Proposition. The proposition made last week through the columns of the Gazette to the people of Garden Grove and Westminster by six responsible men was at once novel and unique. The gist of the proposition was that these men would develop water to the extent of 3,000 gallons per minute if the owners of six adjoining sections of land would subscribe to 750 shares of stock at $10 per share. That was the novel part of the proposition; the unique feature was that until it had been clearly demonstrated that the amount of water named had been actually developed, the subscribers were not to be called upon for a cent of money, and if the enterprise was a failure only the six men who made the proposition would lose money. We doubt whether any other joint stock enterprise ever took such a shape as this; it is probable that there never was a corporation where dividends were guaranteed as an inducement for people to subscribe to its stock. But the fact is that the projectors are actuated less by a desire for profit than to assist in the development of the country, and they believe so thoroughly in their theory of water development that they are not only willing but anxious to risk their money in demonstrating how criminally negligent the people of this county have been in failing to use the great storehouses of water which Nature has provided. For years past the Anaheim Union Water Company has discussed divers ways of developing water. But their energy has not gone beyond the bounds of discussion and not a single drop of water has been developed since the organization of the old water company about thirty years ago. Does not the proposition quoted show how the company can get to work and develop much-needed water? But if the company desires to run no risk if they desire the delivery of the goods before making payment, we have no doubt that they can at any time enter into an agreement with Messrs James, Cox, Saxton and other gentlemen of a tenor similar to that published last week. And it may be authentically stated that within one month from the time such agreement is made the gobblers involved will have expanded the results of dollars and have the work done and completed. Ed. Gazette's speech-making, the second annual County Agricultural Society, this Association year ago at Douglass under only a loot, yet it was this year a perennial event with a capital of 1,000 shares at 1,000 has been superseded for a first-class office. The officers for President, F. H. Crawford Treasurer of Directors, spared no pain or success, ably and surrounding this writing efforts will be continued. Tuesday was tion and arrangement In the pavilion order of the day fruits and vegetables fruits shrubs plants and organi ts, sowing in large buildings, time display. I float set-voglio ment a trail walk followed fruits and vegetables such as as has been was on exhibit to boats and port facilities, machining even with the sea specimens could Among the six marriage licenses issued by the County Clerk on Monday was one to J. H. Kimball and Sallie Starr. Jim is 69 years of age and Sallie is 75. Mr. T. S. Grimshaw is in San Francisco attending the session of the Grand Lodge, F. & A. M. as a delegate from Anaheim lodge. Ex-County Recorder Miles pleaded not guilty to the charge of embezzlement, and his trial is set for November 234 in Judge Cheney's court. He is at liberty on $2,000 bail. The grades on the railroad which is to puncture Anaheim on its way to the sea have about reached Riverside on their way here. The line has been located as far as Arlington. The Governor Witt and expelled George Norris and Albert Wood, their offense being the circulation of false and defamatory statements regarding Secretary Katzenstein. Proposals are invited by the Government for carrying the trials between Anaheim and Westminster and a thousand other loss important routes. Specifications can be seen at the Anaheim postoffice. The Southern Pacific Company have reduced the rates on green fruit from Pomona to San Francisco, Stockton, Sacramento, Oakland, San Jose, and intermediate points, from $1.30 to 71 cents per hundred pounds. During the progress of a fight at San Pedro in which Capt. James was badly beaten, Constable Francis received a pistol ball in the fleshy part of the leg. The fight was between James and Postmaster Welt, the latter being assisted by several others. The formation of a lodge of Native Sons of the Golden West in Anaheim, which last week was strongly probable, has been indiscriminately postponed. There is enough material for a strong lodge here, but it was found impossible to reconcile the diverse views held by those who were eligible. In traveling in a wagon between Santa Ana and Anaheim the early part of the week, a gentleman lost a satchel from the wagon and did not discover his loss for some hours afterwards. Retracing his way to Santa Ana he found the satchel intact in a store at that place, it having been picked up on the road by an honest farmer. The satchel contained $84 in cash, together with other valuables. The summer of discontent is being vigorous. In traveling in a wagon between Santa Ana and Anaheim the early part of the week, a gentleman lost a satchel from the wagon and did not discover his loss for some hours afterwards. Retracing his way to Santa Ana he found the satchel intact in a store at that place it having been picked up on the road by an honest farmer. The satchel contained $84 in coin, together with other valuables. The summer of discontent is being vigorously crowded out by the winter of great expectations. The air is cold and crisp of mornings, and as one dresses he shivers slightly and wonders to himself what possessed him to growl at the heat only a short month ago and wish for the cold weather to set in. The season, however, is not so far advanced as further north. A frost covered the ground in Sonoma county last Sunday morning. In the proceedings of the Board of Supervisors, as published on the first page, it will be seen that they propose to put the heavy levy for road purposes to good uses. There are too few good bridges in the county. A substantial bridge over the wash north of Anaheim would prevent the annoyances of two years ago, when it was unfordable for days at a time. But the Supervisors are not going to order the bridge built unless the persons most interested ask that it be done. If the Board of Trustees will give the use of one of the rooms in the school house, Mr. F. S. Wallace proposes to teach short-hand writing to a class composed of pupils of the school and anyone else who desires to study. Mr. Wallace is a competent stenographer and proposes to teach the class gratuitously. The ability to write shorthand is a useful and valuable accomplishment and we advise our young people to take advantage of Mr. Wallace's generous offer of free tuition. [Since the above was placed in type the use of the school room has been granted, and the first session of the school will be held on Thursday evening.] The Downey Fair Downey, Oct. 15, 1885. Ed. Gaxette:—With the usual amount of speech-making, music, track parade, etc., the second annual Fair of the Los Angeles County Agricultural Association was opened to the public on Tuesday, Oct. 13th. This Association held its first Fair one year ago at Downey, and though gotten up under only a local and temporary organization, yet it was so encouraging a success that this year a permanent organization was effected and a Joint Stock Association formed with a capital stock of $10,000, divided into 1,000 shares at $10 each. Of this stock $6,000 has been subscribed with a paid-up capital of $3,000. With this money about thirty acres of land have been bought and largely fenced, a large pavilion, grand stand, stable and stalls erected, an excellent half-mile track laid out and graded, and the groutels generally put in proper condition for a first-class fair ground. The officers for this year are A. E. Davis President, F. R. Witte Secretary, M. D. Crawford Treasurer, with twelve as a Board of Directors. The officers of this year have spared no pain to make this season's fair a success, ably situated by the community, and surrounding towns in general; and at this writing the proponents are that all these efforts will be successful. Tuesday was largely devoted to the reception and arrangement of articles and stock. In the pavilion halls and activity was the order of the day and by night long rows of fruits and vegetables, canned goods, dried fruits, shrubs and flowers, large numbers of pines and oranges and work of all descriptions, sowing machines, etc., filled the large building, making a vault and attractive display. Downey led in the display of fruits and vegetables, making on this department a really magnificent showing. Norwalk followed with a good agreement of fruits and vegetables, while Randolph exhibited giant snakes, of corn and pumpkins as well as people and animals. There was an exhibition the county number of big boots and ponchos, sweaters and fresh potatoes, machinery gear and apples, stalks of corn with the ears on mounds so much that the specimens could not touch them, and vary. An Interesting Convention. The convention of the Anaheim Township Sunday School Association was held in the Presbyterian church on Thursday with sessions morning, afternoon and evening. The morning exercises followed out the programme closely and were very interesting. The different topics were taken up by Rev. Messrs. Marquis and Cash of Westminster, Parker of Orange. Erangelical church, Anaheim and Messrs. Hanly and Blackman of Los Angeles, Secretaries of the County S. S., Association, and others. After the morning session the convention adjourned to the hall in Metz block, where the ladies of the different churches of Anaheim had provided an ample feast spread on two long ceasers running nearly the whole length of the room. The tables were embellished with lovely flowers and a pyramid of fruits in the center of the room, including grapes of every hue and name, which would have attracted attention at the Agricultural Fair. The afternoon session was well attended, but owing to the absence of some who had been assigned parts, the programme was not so closely followed as the meaning. Much valuable information was obtained, however, from discussion of practical subjects on Sunday School matters. An invitation to have the spring meeting at Las Banas was accepted. After a second visit to the well-filled tables, the convention met in the evening and discussed the questions propounded by any who felt like asking them through the Question Box. An interesting and prestable half hour was thus spent. Queries being answered by Rev. Mr. Bollinger, Messrs. Hanly, Blackman and others who were seated such duties, including many ladies some of whose tense pointed answers contradicted the general impressions of woman's verbosity. Other exercises included "Traces," service" interest being added by the admirable playing of Mass Crowther, organist of the church. A discussion of associations and conventions favorable to their continuation, and a tender thanks of the convention to the ladies of Anaheim for their boundful hospitality and to the Presbyterian church for the use of its building, the convention adjourned for six months. The officers of the Association are: E. A. Sexton, President; J. D. Chaffee and D. Griswold, Vice-President; Mrs. Evans, Treasurer; G. C. Mock, secretary.

An exchange says: "To cure snoring a piece of soap should be dropped into the mouth of the sneaker. The oil in the soap will infiltrate the sneaker." This generally stops the philanthropist who drops the soap from making and further experiments. Celebrated Eola Tea at Kellogg Bros. at 12 yds. dress goods for $1 at Kellogg Bros.

In one of the many pictures we little hamsters which and the banks of the river Ayrone of her Majesty's neck was having his annual inspection of the parish school. He was examining a class on Scottish history, and wishing to check the historical fact of James V. queen with his queen, Mary of Lorraine, asked the question: "Why was Mary, Queen of Scots, born at Lintisngow?" Up starts a bright little follow and shouts: "Because her mother was there." Well," replied the inspector, "there might have been some doubt as to the answer I would have given, but there can be none about yours." Power of the United States. Hon. James N. Kerno, the United States Marshal of Pennsylvania, writes that during the severe winter weather his family used Red Star Gough Cure and was much benefited by it. He states that he knows of nothing better in relieving colds or sore throats. Miraculous Escape. W. W. Keed, draggist, or Winchester, Ind., writes: "One of my customers, Mrs. Lomas Pike, Baronia, Randolph Co., Indiana, was a long suffer with Consumption, and was given up to die by her physician. She heard of Dr King's New Discovery for Consumption, and began buying it of me. In six months time she reached to this city." There is a possibility of the Southern Pacific building a three-mile switch from Wilmington to Leppig Beach, thus giving that place direct rail communication with Los Angeles. The Outlook for the Fair Of the Fair which opens in Los Angeles on Tuesday the Herald says: There never has been in the history of fairs in southern California a more lattering prospect for a successful exhibition than now appears to the managers of the District Agricultural Association, which opens its doors to the public on Tuesday next in the Slots building. There never has been so much promise of genuine sport, so superior an exhibition of live stock, of fruit, the products of the farm, of ladies' fancy work, or the line art at the pressing girl. This much is now assured, and all that remains to make the sixth annual fair of the Sixta District one of the best in the State is for our people to take an interest in the matter and help push things along in a material way. A fair is a place to note the progress of a community and its advancement in all branches of industry, and a benefit to everybody, in whatever calling engaged, in the county and district, and the public spirit of our citizens should be invoked to see to it that other parts of our State, not our equal in population or resources, do not get away with us simply because they are more public spirited. The Railroad Outlook San Francisco, October 14.—The Southern Pacific and Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe have made an agreement to share through California business from the East and Southern California business to the East. The portion to each company is not made known. A prominent Southern Pacific official was interviewed to-night on the subject and said: "They (the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe) came in here and we concluded that it was best to share business." The Oregon Railway and Navigation Company is not included in the arrangement. One result of the agreement is that the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe abandon the idea of establishing an independent steamer line between San Diego and San Francisco.
