The full programme for the proceedings of the meeting of the Pomological Society, which convenes in Anaheim on July 1st, has not yet been completed. The following committees of citizens have been appointed, and under their management the meeting will doubtless be one of great interest and pleasure to our visitors upon the occasion, as well as to our own residents. Reception Committee—Plez James, A. Langenberger, R. Melrose, R. J. Northam, P. J. J. Schmidt, J. H. Bullard. Music Committee—W. A. Packard, Chas Schindler, F. Conrad, T. S.; Grimahaw, H. S.

Rust, the Misses Frances Schmidt, Lennie Saxton, Matilda Rimpan, Mary Horstmann, Katie Bremmerman. Through the courtesy of T. A. Darling, Station Agent, we are enabled to publish the following summary of railroad exports and imports at the Anaheim depot: For the month of April, 1886, freight forwarded, 1,396,340 pounds; freight received, 1,248,870 pounds. For the same month last year, freight forwarded, 816,281 pounds; freight received, 354,700 pounds. The outbound freight for April of this year includes 261 puncheons and 159 barrels of wine, 152 barrels of brandy, 532 sacks of wool, 309 cases of eggs and 3,884 boxes of oranges, the balance being general merchandise. Freight received consisted entirely of general merchandise and lumber. Each month shows a steady increase of tonnage and a solid improvement. The Coast Survey party now making their headquarters in Anaheim have been engaged in a thorough reconnoissance of the surrounding country to determine the best location for a ten-mile base line from which to start their triangulation that is to extend northward and connect with former surveys in the vicinity of Santa Barbara, and southward to the Mexican boundary, also to connect with San Clemente and Santa Catalina. Seldom has Krupp ed with people and charity entertainments of last week, and more surprised or that the entertaining the benefit of chartering the public and in moulding them was generously offered.Willing hands arrived fully decorated thirteen historic honors a manner superiorSIONals who visited "Down by the Sea humor, and kept us ful and attentive." The players were actors and faithful.

In addition to the satisfaction that they will bring joy to a husband lies ill in Rev. A. W. Spaight will conduct services in St. Michael's Episcopal church tomorrow (Sunday) evening at half past seven. All are invited. Rev. M. O. McNiff will lecture on 'The Distinctive Characteristics of Methodism' at the German M. E. Church next Sunday evening at half past seven. Superintendent Reid of the ostrich farm began plucking the birds on Monday last. This season's feathers are reported to be of unusually fine quality and large size. The new depot in Los Angeles is receiving much-needed improvements. An additional story is to be added, the present waiting room enlarged and the offices of the company are to be up stairs. The steamers San Juan and San Blas, for New York, carried last month 73,007 gallons of wine, while other vessels took 3,154 gallons, making 76,221 gallons, a large part of which were shipped by the Los Angeles wine makers, Kohler & Frohling and B. Dreyfus & Co. of Anaheim. The ceremonies incident to Decoration Day were largely attended on Monday at Santa Ana. Many Anaheimers were participants. The oration by Rev. M. O. McNiff of Anaheim is reported to have been a masterly effort, and deservedly received the encomium of all who were his fortunate listeners. The solemn stillness of Decoration Day here was broken by a fisticuff mill by two Mexicans, who were arrested, brought into court and examined. Their plea was that they were only playing. Their bruised and bloody faces, however, outweighed the oral testimony, and Judge Fox tried them $6 each, which they paid. The case of Perkins vs. Baldwin came up Tuesday in the Superior Court on motion for a new trial. The settlement of the statement in such motion is now set for June 25. The plaintiff has five days thereafter to file counter alibidit. This is the $75,000 breach of promise case of Miss Louise C. Perkins against Mr. E. J. Baldwin, the millionaire. The result of interviews with many Anaheim grape growers indicates that the coming crop will be unusually large. Grapes are setting heavily, with weather exceedingly favorable for maturing a quality fully up to the standard. This, coupled with the increasing popularity and demand for pure Anaheim wines, renders the coming harvest to be full of promise. Santa Ana voted on the question of in-chandise and lumber. Each month shows a steady increase of tonnage and a solid improvement. The Coast Survey party now making their headquarters in Anaheim have been engaged in a thorough reconnoissance of the surrounding country to determine the best location for a ten-mile base line from which to start their triangulation that is to extend northward and connect with former surveys in the vicinity of Santa Barbara, and southward to the Mexican boundary, also to connect with San Clemente and Santa Catalina Islands. The genial gentlemen composing the party express themselves much pleased with this section of the country, and thoroughly appreciate and enjoy the hospitalities extended to them by our citizens. This feeling is reciprocated, and we trust their stay may be indefinitely prolonged. We call special attention to the advertisement of H. Giese, of Los Angeles, which appears elsewhere in this issue. He sells a line of first-class farm machinery, wagons, etc.; all of which are well known in this part of the State, and a farmer who buys of Mr. Giese knows that he is not experimenting but getting an article of proved merit. He has recently added to his list the famous Iron Turbine Windmill. This is probably the best mill manufactured to day. Look up his ad, and see what he is offering. The survey of the tract of land in Newport known as the Berry ranch has been completed by Engineer Kellogg. About one thousand acres have been subdivided into five; ten and twenty-acre tracts with streets sixty-six feet in width. The land was purchased and subdivided by the officers of a colony organized in Boston, the members of which are all from the New England States. Several of the colonists are now on the ground. Others are expected during the coming autumn. "Modjeska, the 'famous artist,' is an item printed by the Los Angeles papers copied from the San Francisco press. Madame Modjeska has no ranch near Anaheim, and is not stopping there. She is expected to spend the summer with J. E. Pleasants in the Santiago Canyon, where she has been a former visitor. Modjeska was some years ago a resident of Anaheim, and frequently renews the acquaintance of Auld Lang Syne. McPherson Bros. of Orange intend shipping large quantities of fresh grapes to Eastern markets during the coming season, if arrangements can be made with the railroad companies for quick transit and rates that will allow a living profit. Under the present demands of transportation, the shipment of green fruit incurs great risk and possible loss; which if removed by low freight and carriage on special or passenger trains would with a general request. In addition to this satisfaction that they will bring joy to a husband lies ill in Mrs. Cordelia D., visiting her relative Mrs. Weibb. Miss Emma Schilling spending her summertime at Mrs. Mossem.

Mr. A. Jaqua re-California, last week part of that Sta reputation as a heal her of people go to The result of interviews with many Anaheim grape growers indicates that the coming crop will be unusually large. Grapes are setting heavily, with weather exceedingly favorable for maturing a quality fully up to the standard. This, coupled with the increasing popularity and demand for pure Anaheim wines, renders the coming harvest to be full of promise. Santa Ana voted on the question of incorporation on Tuesday. The subject having been one of general discussion for some time, great interest was taken in the election. Two hundred and eleven votes were polled, with a majority of 47 in favor of incorporation. The following officers were elected: Trustees, W. H. Spurgeon, J. R. Porter, T. J. Harlin, John Avis, Andrew Snyder; Clerk, Samuel Wilson; Treasurer, Geo. J. Mosbaugh; Marshal, C. H. Peters. A special cattle train came in late on Friday night of last week, composed of 22 cars of beef cattle from Tucson, Arizona. The herd was driven to the J. W. Bixby ranch in Santa Ana Canyon, where they will be pastured. It is said that drought and a scant supply of feed is the cause of cattle being shipped west. Hundreds of animals are dying daily in parts of Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. In some localities they can be purchased at $4 per head. Census Marshal Wm. Schulte reports that in Orangethorpe School District there are 78 children between 5 and 17 years of age, and 17 under 5 years. There were 63 census children last year, showing a gain of 15. There were two births in the district during the year. H. C. Kellogg, School Census Marshal of Fairview District, has furnished the Gazette with the following summaries: Total number of children between the ages of 5 and 17 years, boys, 37; girls, 39; total, 76. Attendants at school during the year, 64; non-attendants, 12. Number of children under 5 years of age, 35; births during the year, 7. The number of children in the district since the census of 1882 has exactly doubled. McPherson Bros. of Orange intend shipping large quantities of fresh grapes to Eastern markets during the coming season, if arrangements can be made with the railroad companies for quick transit and rates that will allow a living profit. Under the present demands of transportation, the shipment of green fruit incurs great risk and possible loss; which if removed by low freight and carriage on special or passenger trains would open up a heavy tonnage to the East from this section. A large number of the friends of Miss Claudina Frances Rimpau assembled on Thursday afternoon to offer her birthday congratulations. Several telegrams from absent admirers, conveying best wishes for many returns of the happy day, were received during the progress of the festivities. Miss Claudina thus happily celebrated her second birthday. If the whisperings of a little bird be true, there are near a dozen young mortals in Anaheim whose cups of joy are overflowing in anticipation of awaiting marital bliss. We have their names, but have promised not to tell. Charles Schindler is burning a kiln of brick on his place west of the depot, to be used in the erection of a one-story store building between Kroeger's Hall and Nebelung's store. This will be a valuable addition to the business structures on Center street. The removal of the huge weeds, which have from time immemorial rendered Los Angeles street an unsightly thoroughfare, is a bit of enterprise for which the Board of Trustees deserve many thanks. H. Kroeger has consented to allow the use of his name as a candidate for the office of School Trustee to be voted for to-day, as Theo. Rimpau declines further service. The mid-day mail on Thursday failed to arrive. Cause unknown. Mr. A.

The Charity Play: Seldom has Kroeger’s Hall been so crowded with people as upon the occasion of the charity entertainment given Friday evening of last week, and never was an audience more surprised or better pleased. The fact that the entertainment was gotten up for the benefit of charity had much to do in interesting the public in behalf of the object, and in moulding the sympathy and enthusiasm of the audience. The use of the hall was generously donated by Mr. Kroeger. Willing hands arranged the stage and tastefully decorated the room. The participants in histrionic honors performed their parts in a manner superior to the ordinary professionals who visit Anaheim. The play “Down by the Sea” was full of interest and humor, and kept the large audience girtful and attentive to the end. The players were well fitted to the characters and faithfully portrayed their parts. The make-up of Bishop, Rich and Pellegrin could not be excelled. Messrs. Hart, Bullard and Browning acted their parts equal to old stagers. Mrs. John Hartung made a most captivating city belle. Miss Amy Hartman as Mrs. Gale was superb, and Miss Maud Northam won many enconiums upon her naivete in the coquetry of the Fisherman’s Daughter. J. Landell proved himself an efficient stage manager. Appropriate music by violin, flute, cornet and piano, under the direction of Prof. Packard, was rendered between acts and for the social dance that followed the play. Ice cream tables presided over by the Misses Schmidt were well patronized. The whole affair was thoroughly enjoyed and ended with a general request for its repetition. In addition to the evening’s pleasure is the satisfaction that the net proceeds—$100—will bring joy to a deserving woman whose husband lies ill in the County Hospital. Personal. Mrs. Cordelia Doliver of Saginaw, Mich., is visiting her relatives, Prof. Plummer and Mrs. Wehbo. Miss Emma Scholl of San Francisco is spending her summer vacation with her aunt, Mrs. Mossemann. Not Phylloxera. The following letter will be found interesting and doubtless quieting to those persons who several weeks ago indulged in needless alarm over what was thought might be an attack of a serious character upon the vines in this section: UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, BERKELEY, May 25, 1886. A. LANGENBREGER, Esq., Anaheim—Dear Sir: Yours of the 22d is to hand. As regards the vines you sent, a close examination of the roots failed to reveal anything abnormal, and their leaves, as well as another batch of leaves received from other parties, showed no specific disease, but only such fungus, etc., attacks as might be looked for in any sickly plant. I think you are right in attributing the trouble to climatic, or rather seasonal influences. The dying of trees, even more than that of vines, is widespread almost all over the State, at least from Vacaville, where it is very bad, via Fresno to Los Angeles. It has occurred more or less in the Santa Clara Valley, too, and I have lost nearly every almond tree at my Mission San Jose place; peaches and apricots share largely in the trouble. Right here at my home place, several plum and a large cherry tree are dying or dead. I have examined closely into the matter, and find the roots whole but brown, in a condition which I should attribute to "water-logging" of the subsoil. As you say the warm January weather started growth, and then the copious and continued rains kept the roots immersed in cold water for weeks, where the land was not well drained. So far as I have seen, bad drainage appears to be concerned, actually or inferentially, in all the trouble that has come under my notice. It is always worst in heavy soils, or else in badly-drained ones of any character. That is as near as I have been able to come to any conclusion, and if I am correct, of course the remedy is better drainage hereafter; but that does not revive the dead trees and vines. All the early growth was very "brash," and afterward there was not a rise of sap enough to sustain it. Thus even my Riparia vine cuttings, planted early, after pushing shoots of two or three inches, gave out. All the growth wilted away, and many will not revive. Others are putting out new growth. The same is happening to some of my vine grafts. E. W. Hilgard. Good Words for Anaheim. We have been favored with a copy of the San Bernardino Index, dated June 2, 1886, containing a letter from a correspondent of Town Trustees. The Board of Town Trustees met in regular session on Wednesday afternoon. The Committee on Public Improvements reported an examination of the asphaltum culvert laid by A. E. White on Los Angeles street and found the same well constructed. Resolved That Center street, from the corner of Citron street to the depot, be graded and kept in good repair. The Committee on Public Improvements was authorized and directed to have the principal streets cleared of weeds and properly cleaned. The special committee to whom was referred the matter of fixing rates for the sale of water by the Anabeim Union Water Company reported that, in accordance with legal advice, the Board of Trustees had no power to act in the premises. An ordinance was reported to prevent gambling in the town of Anaheim, which was referred to the ordinance committee. The office of Justice of the Peace was declared vacant on account of the failure of A. E. White elect to qualify, whereupon J. B. Pierce was appointed to fill the vacancy. The Marshal was directed to publish a notice to all persons having any town property in their possession to deliver the same to the Marshal. New Warehouse in Los Angeles: Many of our readers will be interested in knowing that the new brick City Warehouse, 149 Upper Main street, Los Angeles, has been completed. Mr. D. McFarland, the proprietor, announces that he is now prepared to receive consignments of wool, nuts, raisins, honey, etc. All consignments will be stored and, if desired, money will be advanced thereon at current rates and the goods shipped and disposed of by his correspondents in the East. These unusual facilities commend the City Warehouse to the favorable consideration of the public. Bodily pains are instantly relieved by the use of St. Jacobs Oil. Dr. R. Butler, Master of Arts, Cambridge University, England, says “it acts like magic.” Personal. Mrs. Cordelia Doliver of Saginaw, Mich., is visiting her relatives, Prof. Plummer and Mrs. Welb. Miss Emma Scholl of San Francisco is spending her summer vacation with her aunt, Mrs. Mossemann. Mrs. Piez James, with three children, left on Tuesday for the East to visit her former home near Kanaas City. H. G. Reid of San Francisco has been appointed Superintendent of the Anaheim Ostrich Farm, and has entered upon his duties. Mrs. H. D. Polhemus returned on Monday from an extended visit in Arizona. Chas. Hilmer Jr. who lately received severe injuries by the premature discharge of a gun has returned from Los Angeles, where he has been under the successful treatment of an oculist. Julius Voight, now in the employ of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company, formerly a resident of Anaheim, and well known among the young people, has been visiting his old chums. John Rimpan of Anaheim, and a student at St. Vincent's College in Los Angeles, won the premium in orthography at the recent holiday examination. A Question. ANAHEIM, June 3, 1886. En. Gazette. In your last week's paper we see a piece about "An Act to enforce the educational rights of children." We believe that this would be a good law if enforced. No parent or guardian ought to prevent a child from education; but suppose a School Principal or Trustee prevents a child from 6 months' education out of the 8 months' schooling, are they not guilty of a misdemeanor? Have they the right to send a child out of school without any sufficient reason? It is a thing that has happened in the Anaheim school, and can be proved. E. W. Anaheim Public School. Schools will close next week in all of the rooms except the Grammar, which will continue one week longer. The doors are wide open, and we extend a cordial invitation to all friends and an urgent request to all parents to call and see some of the work that we are and have been doing. We shall have regular school work every day of the week. Do not wait until the last day. A. W. PLUMER, Prin. June 3, 1886. Mr. A. Jaqua returned from Anaheim, California, last week. He reports the southern part of that State just entitled to its reputation as a health resort. A large number of people go there for the sake of their after; but that does not revive the dead trees and vines. All the early growth was very "brash," and afterward there was not a rise of sap enough to sustain it. Thus even my Riparia vine cuttings, planted early, after pushing shoots of two or three inches, gave out. All the growth wilted away, and many will not revive. Others are putting out new growth. The same is happening to some of my vine grafts. E. W. HILGARD. Good Words for Anaheim. We have been favored with a copy of the San Bernardino Index, dated June 2, 1886, containing a letter from a correspondent of that paper, descriptive of Anaheim, its vineyards, schools, churches, etc., which evidently eminated from the pen of a careful and intelligent observer. The article is quite too lengthy to reproduce in the GAZETTE but it is a source of much gratification to quote the kind words of the editor of the Index which precede the correspondence: A correspondent of the Index furnishes the following description of our sister towns, across the border in Los Angeles county, and whose interests are identical with our own. It is our desire to preface the article with a few words in regard to her citizens. Some two years ago, while making a tour of the State, we visited Anaheim. A short stay of three days sufficed to make us acquainted with many of her people, and a more hospitable, generous, homelike and good people cannot be found, we venture on God's footstool. With few, if any exceptions, they are well to do, and seem to all belong to one family, and it is certainly a pleasure to become acquainted with any one of this "happy family." Advertised Letters.

A Walking Skeleton. Mr. E. Springer, of Mechanicsburg Pa., writes: "I was afflicted with lung fever and abscess on lungs, and reduced to a walking skeleton. Got a free trial bottle of Dr.King's New Discovery for Consumption, which did me so much good that I bought a dollar bottle. After using three bottles, found myself once more a man completely restored to health, with a hearty appetite, and a gain in flesh of 48 lbs." Mr. A. Jaqua returned from Anaheim, California, last week. He reports the southern part of that State justly entitled to its reputation as a health resort. A large number of people go there for the sake of their health, or that of some member of the family. Professional occupations are overcrowded, and there is little or no chance for a man without means. The handling of real estate is a very prominent business, and many people are engaged in it. The prominent productive industries, named in the order of their relative importance, are cultivation of the grate and its products, fruits of all kinds and grazing and stock raising. In Southern California very little attention is given to the cultivation of cereals except that of barley. In the central and northern part of the State large quantities of wheat are raised. A good bearing vineyard or orchard costs all the way from $400 to $1,200 per acre, depending upon location. Good unimproved lands command from $75 to $100 per acre. The vine is usually productive for from 15 to 18 years, when they have to be renewed. The climate is very uniform, yesterday being a fair sample of a California winter day. It is a nice place to spend one's time if he is supplied with an adequate amount of means. It is, indeed, a great State. — Union City, Indiana, Eagle. Mr. Jaqua, or the editor of the Eagle, is "off" about the renewal of grape vines. They practically live and bear forever. — From the South Bend (Ind.) Tribune we glean some particulars of the illness and death of Samuel Leeper, who left Anaheim a few weeks since to visit his former home: "He was taken sick while passing through Nevada Territory, and when changing cars at Ogden was taken with a severe chill, after which he was obliged to remain in bed. The situation was further aggravated by a delay of three days at the worst point on the road by snow and land slides, the accommodations being of the poorest character. Mr. Leeper gradually grew worse and died on the train a few miles from Des Moines, Iowa." The funeral in South Bend was largely attended, including many prominent citizens of the State.

Undigested Food In the stomach develops an acid which stings the upper part of the throat and palate, causing "heartburn." It also evolves a gas which produces "wind on the stomach," and a feeling and appearance of distension in that organ after eating. For both this acidity and swelling Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is a much better remedy than alkaline salts, like bartheborn and carbonate of soda. A wineglassful of the Bitters, after or before dinner, will be found to set as a reliable carminative or preventive.
