WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY AUGUST 28, 1886 Kleinigkeiten. Extra copies of the Gazette are kept on sale at the stores of J. Helmsen and Max Nebelung. The Grand Jury will convene in Los Angeles on September 9th. Kellogg Bros. are selling fruit jars remarkably cheap, having put specially low prices on their stock. A new house has been built by Mr. Frank Seppi, who purchased the Coquillett vineyard. To the participants in the "double wedding" chronicled to day, the Gazette tender its heartiest congratulations. The shipments on the Anaheim branch railroad are now so large that the holiday train is generally late in arriving and departing. Mr. Koolex of Westminster is so confident of the purity of his lard that he offers to pay a reward of $500 if it is not as represented. See advertisement. The Anaheim Lodge of Chosen Friends will be visited to night by John M. Fullweiler, the Grand Councillor of the Order in this State. The A.U.W.Co. has decided to put new floors on flume 12 and 6, and bulkheads on all the flumes. Eighteen thousand feet of lumber will be required. Our livery men did a rushing business last Sunday, as all their rings were hired out to people who went to the Landing. It said that more could have been disposed of for the day had they been procurable. Monday morning the Santa Monica up train ran over a man about one mile and a half east of Ballona station. H. F. Haman, engineer of the train, when about half a mile from the place of the accident saw something on the track, which, from the intervening brush, he could not make out. When about three car-lengths away from the object he sounded the whistle, and this aroused the man—for the object was a man, and the engineer became aware of it, and saw that he was sitting on the rail with the feet outside and the remainder of the body inside, with his hands down, his legs drawn up and his head drooping down. When within one train's length the engineer saw the man raise his head and look toward the train, apparently making an effort to raise himself and failing. Haman tried to stop his train, but failed to and it passed wholly over the man and cut him clear in two. There was a rope, probably the rope he had used for his blankets, tangled around him and some people who examined the body at the time of the accident seemed to believe that he had been tied to the track with it. The general impression was that he had tied himself. Carrer McFarland held an inquiry in the course of the day, at which the body was recognized by Deputy Sheriff D. W. Fields as that of Mathias Remler, a German single-aged about 48 years, living at or near Santa Ana from where he had been sent to Los Angeles to be examined as to his mental capacities. Col J. Thompson, the County Justice, has always held that the man was insane, but a medical commission decided otherwise in Judge Branson's Court on last Saturday. The verdict remanded by the jury of inquisition was that Remler committed suicide by allowing a train of cars to run over him, and exonerated the train employees from all blame. Congress having failed to make an appropriation for the continance of the Coast Survey, the work begun several months ago in this vicinity, and which came to an abrupt termination, will not be resumed this year. Capt. Lawson arrived here yesterday to superintend the removal of the baggage, etc., to San Francisco. We anticipated much pleasure from the stay of the gentlemen of the survey here this summer, and their friends here regret the circumstance which compels them to labor in another field.

Our livery men did a rushing business last Sunday, as all their rigs were hired out to people who went to the Landing. It is said that more could have been disposed of for the day had they been procurable. We can touch for the fact that Mr. R.H.Kerack has some excellent horses for sale and those wanting sound young horses should respond with him, as he invites them to do already printed today. A number of extraordinary large peaches has been presented to this office by Mr.David Brittain, one of them weighing 12 ounces. The treasurer Mr.Bartsch's place invariably grows large fruit. Fire wood is scarce again, especially in winter. But little training from the mountains volume at present, and the population mostly walnut wood in the same area, is procured from the Gospel Swamp country. Mr.R.H.Kerack was elected on last Saturday, second visually in the Board of Directors of the water company, but he has declined to accept. The board hopes that the personal luck will follow their third attempt to do the vaguely. From Mr.Silas Holman, who has been visiting San Diego, we learn that it is a common assumption in that thriving city that two more lines of railroad will soon enter the county—the L.A.&S.A.R.E. by way of Oceanside and the S.P. extended from Santa Ana. Coleman Walsh and his family, at Lancaster, were all poisoned by canned peaches Monday. A physician was in close proximity and all were saved, though the cases were serious. The tent had been kept too long in the copper vessel in which it had been cooked. It appears that there is no public road leading to Walnut street from the depot, the passageway used being the private property of Mr.T.J.F.Barge and H.Newmark, who have no intention of dedicating it to public use. This is a correction of an item which appeared in these columns two weeks ago. A gentleman by the name of Dr.Evans, who came from Kentucky, has purchased the twenty acre tract of land adjoining that of Mrs.Colins on the east. He has already made some improvements by erecting a proportion for the continuance of the Coast Survey, the work begun several months ago in this vicinity, and which came to an abrupt termination, will not be resumed this year. Capt.Lawson arrived here yesterday to superintend the removal of the baggage, etc., to San Francisco. We automated much pleasure from the stay of the gentlemen of the survey here this summer, and their friends here regret the circumstance which compels them to labor in another field. Eighteen Anaberm bloods assembled at the Palderatz residence on Wednesday evening to sermon the obstructing parties of the "double welting." After rendering some very harsh sounding music, which is usual on such occasions, they were welcomed by the happy parties, when all extended their congratulations. A most enjoyable time was spent in social intercourse, and the refreshments, etc., prepared for the serenaders were put to a good use by the jolly crowd. As the hour for departure drew near, all join in wishing the happy couples a long and prosperous life. Lost Saturday as one of the employees of Doeylus & Co. was unrestressing his horses, he happened to leave one of the tugs attached to the single tree, and gave the horse a blow to gown. This tightened the animal, and it started to run, whereupon the wagon moved, and was pulled to the entrance on Center street, the tongue watching under the boards of the sidwalk near Miss Mosemann's milliner store, and torped up a good portion of the woodwork and knocked the corner post out of position. Five sacks of ore were brought down this week from the Pellegrin mine in Silverado district. One would judge from the appearance of this ore that it is from a different ledge than that which was brought down lately. It is of a grayish blue tint, being alloyed with iron, while the first lot was of a yellowish color. Following is the total length in feet of the flames on the Upper ditch of the A.U.W.Co.

It appears that there is no public road leading to Walnut street from the depot, the passageway used being the private property of Mr. T. J. F. Barge and H. Newmark, who have no intention of dedicating it to public use. This is a correction of an item which appeared in these columns two weeks ago. A gentleman by the name of Dr. Evans, who came from Kentucky, has purchased the twenty acre tract of land adjoining that of Mrs. Collins on the east. He has already made some improvements by erecting a packet fence fronting on Center street, and enclosing the rest by a lath fence. He proposes to put in fifteen acres of alfalfa and five acres in vines. The Santa Ana Herald gives the following acreage of fruits in the district irrigated by the S. A. V. I. Co.: Walnuts 490 Prunes 796 Apricots 903 Other deep-nosed fruit trees 505 Raisin grapes 8,944 Wine grapes 1,253 Orange and lemon trees 2,113 Total 15,004 The Santa Ana Standard says: Last Sunday we walked through a pumpkin patch of twenty acres belonging to M. V. Lovering of Orangethorpe, and saw wagon loads of them that would average over 100 pounds to the pumpkin and one that would weigh over 200 pounds, while adjoining is corn that will go 60 bushels to the acre and hundreds of walnut trees that have grown over eight feet, and not a particle of water has touched either this season excepting the ordinary rains. We are pleased to say that ye editor's huge gopher ranche is in the same locality and flourishing by neglect as well as any ranche in the country. Our theory of farming is to secure the greatest spontaneous growth with the least spontaneous labor. But the dry belt will raise corn and pumpkins. Don't Delay And examine the remaining stock on hand, which must be disposed of regardless of cost at Dobner's, Among the real estate transactions recorded during the week was the following: Estate of Sarah A F Wilcox, John D Wilcox, John D Wilcox, trustee, and John Alfred Wilcox to Annie Dunahue—All interest of estate of Sarah A F Wilcox deceased, in part of Ranchos Los Bolsas and La Bolsa Chica, Ranchos Los Coyotes, San Juan de Santa Ana, La Habra and Los Alamitos, and property in other counties, $36,400. The office of Mr. E. D Gibson, Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue for the seventh division, is at 115 Commercial Street, Los Angeles (Room 34), where he will be found when not absent on official business. The seventh division comprises the counties of Los Angeles, Ventura and Santa Barbara. Several vintners are busy at work hauling their cooperage from the shops where it was manufactured. The wine-making season is drawing near, and every one is on deck getting the fixtures in order to be ready when the time for crushing arrives. A delegation of Anaheim Lodge, No. 85, A. O. U. W., went over to Orange on Wednesday evening to examine applicants for membership to a lodge about to be organized at that place. Another shipment of eighteen barrels of oil was made early this week from the Anaheim oil wells. This shows that work on the wells is progressing. The water will be in the lower ditch today, and will continue therein until Run No. 12 is delivered. Grape-Growers, Attention! A meeting of grape-growers, who sell their grapes to wineries, is hereby called for Monday evening. August 30th, at 7:30 p.m. at Kroeger's Hall, for the purpose of deciding at what price grapes shall be sold. Many Growers. Monica up smile and a F.

We from the survey for friends compels The Anaheim Railroad. Mr. J. N. Victor and Mr. Fred. Perria, Superintendent and Chief Engineer, respectively, of the California Southern K. R., were in town on Wednesday. They were on a tour of inspection of the county, and proceeded from here to Oceanside by way of Burruel Point, Orange, Santa Ana, Tuatin and San Juan. It is probable that the force of men grading in the Santa Ana Canyon will shortly be increased, and the work of construction more vigorously pushed. The route of the road after it leaves the canyon has not yet been decided upon, though it is an open secret that Los Angeles is the point aimed at. If this is the case, there are several very direct routes which may be adopted. Before making a final report and recommendation to the Directors of the company, the Chief Engineer desires to know whether the property owners on either side of the township line between townships 3 and 4 will give the indemnity bonds required by the company when they build along a county road. If these bonds are given, it is quite possible that the real will be built along this line, but if there are any obstacles placed in the way of constructing along this route then it is probable that the road will be built across La Habra rancho. It is also a common rumor that strong influences are at work to secure the adoption of the last named route. It will be an exceedingly frigid day for this town and Orangethouse and North Anaheim districts if the company cannot see their title clear along the township line, and it is to be hoped that the required conditions will be promptly complied with. It should be born in mind that no right of way is asked, as that is already secured. Whatis wanted is merely a release from claims for damage by reason of the construction and operation of the red road along the county road. Those releases are ready for signatures at the bank of Anaheim and at the office of R. Melrose. From the Seaside. ANAHEIM LANDING, August 23, 1886. EDITOR GAZETTE:—For more than a month we have been an eager expectant of a corn Viticultural and Horticultural. The called meeting of grape-growers in Los Angeles on Monday was well attended. The Grape Growers' and Wine Makers' Association of Southern California was organized and the following officers were elected: L. J. Rose,-President; H. D. Barrows, Los Angeles, 1st Vice-President; Theo. Reiser, Anaheim, 2d; A. Brigden, San Gabriel, 3d; W. A. Pile, Monrovia, 4th; I. M. Hellman, Cucamonga, 5th; J. H. Burke, Downey, 6th; Board of Directors, N. C. Carter, J.W. Batchelor, N. W. Getchell, Henry Stuhr, D.M. McGarry, R. Nadeau; Treasurer, W.H. Workman; Secretary, Geo. Rice. The by-laws provide that the dues are to be $1 quarterly, payable in advance. Officers shall serve gratuitously, with the exception of the Secretary whose salary is to be fixed by the directors. Estimates, prospects, statistics and a directory of membership are to be published yearly by the association. The limit of debts incurrable by the Board shall not exceed $100, necessitating two-thirds of the votes of the association at any meeting having a quorum; but debts to exceed that sum must be voted on by all the members, two-thirds forming a majority. Discussion as to the methods by which the needed protection for which the association has been formed then ensued, and a committee was appointed by the chair, composed of Messrs. Barrows, Workman and McGarry, to report the best means to be devised by which the grape crop can be disposed of, either by selling them or by making wine and distilling. The committee on disposition of the grape crop were to report at a meeting to be held yesterday. L. J. Rose offered his distillery for the fall for $500 to the association, they to pay for repairs and insurance. It was proposed that W.H. Workman and a syndicate entertain this proposition and work the distillery, but no definite arrangement was made. A political chessnut was raked up by W.H. Workman offering the following: Resolved That L.J.Rose is the choice of this viticultural meeting as the Democratic candidate for nomination of Governor at the State Convention,and we most urgently recommend to the delegates from this county to give him their unanimous support. and the vintage bids fair to be an early one—grapes are already colored and are fast ripening. Prices are still uncertain—some sales are being made at $25 and $26,both there are those that claim these figures to be higher than are justified. We are not in a position to judge as to this last point." It is estimated by wine men that fully 1000,000 gallons of wine will be made in Napoleon City alone this year." A naturalist in Modesto has discovered that the ants are this year digging in its sides out of ripe figs and packing the cavities full of leaves stripped from rose bushes. Losenges in Scotland. Pall Mall Gazette: Saturday night an interesting scene is to be witnessed in every town and village in Scotland. It is a stream of the natives in their Sabbath clothes making for the small grocers. The puzzled visitor little thinks that an inquiry into the meaning of this would give him the secret of Scotland's reputation for being a kirk-going people. What every one is off to buy is a bag of peppermint lozenges, and he always tells the shopman to give him the change if half-pennies. The half-pennies are for the plate,the lozenges for church consumption.Many pounds of the kind known as "extra strong" are eaten throughout the country at every service. There is a great art in slipping them solemnly into your mouth,and long practice has made some devout people so good at it that they can do it though the minister's eye be on them. Our namesake of Pall Mall omits to give the reason for this Scottish custom—a custom,by the way,which we can remember as being universal in the remote period when we went to kirk in the land o' cakes.The Scotch people are as somnolent as they are devout;they work hard six days in the week,and not even the eloquence of their pastor can chase away drowsiness as they sit in the silent church listening to his expoundings.Hence,它 necessary to seekthe aid of the pungent peppermint lozenge,which acts as a mild stimulant and drives sleep away.The average Scotch churchgoer would no more go to kirk without his lozenges than he would without his psalm book. An Overflow in India. From the Seaside. ANAHEM LANDING, August 23, 1886. EDITOR GAZETTE.—For more than a month we have been an eager expectant of a communication from some of our campers, and having as long been disappointed, now assume the pleasant task ourselves and trust a few lines may not be wholly uninteresting. Nothing new can be said descriptive of our favored point; it being a well established fact that nature has done more than usual to make it attractive—both as a health and pleasure resort. Beside the surf bathing, which is unexcelled, the placed waters of the bay afford splendid opportunities for swimming, skiff riding and sailing; and through the polite accommodation of the proprietors of these boats, campers and visitors may at all times enjoy caretreats in that line. The peninsula just across the bay furnishes a fine variety of shells and mosses, the beach a lovely drive, and last, but not least, we can house as if a surface well as can be found on the coast, affording an abundant supply of fresh water for man and boat. Our number has ranged from one hundred and fifty to two hundred, and driving the season of two months no sickness or accident has occurred to mar the pleasure of our party, except in one instance where, from exhaustion, an old gentleman came near drowning, but was timely rescued by two of our gentlemen and faithful young bootsmen. Truly, the sojourn here has consummated my ideal in the long ago past of "pointing on the beach," where the gentleman revel in their innocent sports of gathering shells on the seashore, siding down the sand hints and above all, then cant delight, playing in the water. True business men are lounging around in groups spanning fish stories, deer hunts and discussing railroads and other uncontrollable affairs; dreamy lovers strolled leisurely along gazing at the moon perchance, or else by day while looking out upon the broad expanse of ocean before them are planning for the prospective voyage on the ocean of life, while the interested mothers and grandmothers are gathered here and there, telling how it "used to be when they were young." Being something of a gypsy in nature, we enjoy living in a tent for a while, and when we "pull up stakes" the coming week we will leave one willow pole which, having formed a prominent prop to our rade tent, has taken root and we hope it will continue to grow, as we would like to mark the spot insibly that has rendered such solid comfort during the past six weeks. The spaces old warehouse has furnished an excellent restaurant, rooms for boarders and roomers to renters, besides a commodo hall for cany-pulls, birthday parties, dances, literary entertainments and religious exercises. These religious exercises are deserving of special mention by having made our present season a striking contrast to former years.

Rose offered his distillery for the fall for $500 to the association, they to pay for repairs and insurance. It was proposed that W. H. Workman and a syndicate entertain this proposition and work the distillery, but no definite arrangement was made. A political chessfruit was raked up by W. H. Workman offering the following: Resolved That L. J. Rose is the choice of this viticultural meeting as the Democratic candidate for nomination of Governor at the State Convention, and we most urgently recommend to the delegates from this county to give him their unanimous support. Some Republicans having strayed into the association, they objected to being politically shackled by this bit of sharp practice, and as a result of the discussion the resolution was modified so as to read: Resolved That we, the grape-growers and winemakers of Southern California, assembled, and regardless of politics, would hail with pleasure the nomination of L. J. Rose as Governor of the State of California. Mr. R. H. Gilman, Supt. of the S.C. Semi-Tropical Fruit Company, is well pleased with the prospect for a good orange crop this year. The trees on the company's orchard are bearing heavier than last year, with the exception of the Navel variety. The fruit gives promise of being large and clean. We infer, however, that the prospective crop varies with locality, from the fact that Mr. L. W. Kirby does not expect as large a crop from his trees as last year. Mr. John J. Weglein, of firm B. Dreyfus & Co., arrived from San Francisco on Wednesday and will remain here until the close of the' vintage. We learn from Mr. Weglein that the crop of grapes in the northern counties will be quite large, and that a close estimate of the wine yield of this season from the vineyard as far south as Fresno places the amount at eighteen million gallons. A number of grape-crushers were set in motion this week upon the earlier varieties—Riesling, Malvoise, Sweetwater, etc. No price has as yet been fixed for grapes, but delivery is being made at several of the wineries upon the understanding that payment will be made at a price to be determined upon later in the season. An inspection of some of the twigs of the diseased Mission vines shows that a worm has eaten the pith in the twigs. Whether the presence of the worm has any connection with the disease affecting the vine is a question that has been referred to Mr. Morse, the viticultural expert, for answer. The discovery of the worm was made on the vineyard of Mr. John Taylor. Wetmore is nothing if not sanguine. He says that the Prohibition States will help California to get the bill through Congress, prohibiting the sale of adulterated wines because pure wine is needed for medicinal purposes. He also says: The Scotch people are as somulent as they devout; they work hard six days in the week, and not even the eloquence of their pastor can chase away drowsiness as they sit in the silent church listening to his expoundings. Hence, it is necessary to seek the aid of the pungent peppermint lozenge, which acts as a mild stimulant and drives sleep away. The average Scotch churchgoer would no more go to kirk without his lozenges than he would without his psalm book. An Overflow in India. MANDALAY, August 24.—One of the embankments of the Irrawaddy river burst in this city yesterday. The break is 300 yards in length, and so rapid was the flow of water that in a few moments the whole district was flooded from four to ten feet. Engineers at once cut the dam south of the city to allow the water to subside, but the result of this maneuver is as yet unknown. Fifty thousand persons are to-day homeless in this city, their houses and possessions having been either destroyed or submerged. The number of persons drowned by the sudden rush of waters has not yet been ascertained. The flooded district had within its territory many of the food supplying stores and all of these were swept away. The result will be an approach to famine among the homeless people. The river will not fall sufficiently to permit any attempt at the reconstruction of the broken embankment until November. The British military operations are seriously interfered with by the overflow. MR. BENNETT—Dear Sir: By accident I came across your Insulator (a new invention to me) and perceiving at once wonderful change in the tone of the piano since my last visit to that house, I concluded that I could not do without them, and therefore beg you to furnish me a set at your earliest convenience. Anybody who will take trouble to place a muffled-sounding piano on a floor without carpet will find the piano is double its former value. But as our civilization compels us to cover our floors with carpet, we have to depend on your Insulators, which will give the same effect as if the piano stood on the baro floor, and we will have that clear, bell-like, ringing tone we so much desire.

With two services on the Sabath and a weekly prayer meeting Anaheimers may justly be proud that the Landing is a fit place for all God's people. The season is now well spent and a few weeks more all will be returning to their respective homes, taking up the toils and duties of life; and while the places that know us now may perhaps know us no more forever, I trust not one can be counted who will have cause to regret spending their vacation at Anaheim Landing. OCEANIC. Personal Paragraphs. Miss Minnie Bailey of Los Angeles is here on a visit to the Misses Zeyn. Mr. Robert Parker returned on Saturday from his trip to Canada. Mrs. Richard Scale and family, who have been spending the summer up north, arrived home this week. Mr. A. Hoffman of Stockton, brother of Mrs. Chas. Hilmer, is here on a visit, accompanied by his wife. The parents of Mr. A. L. Benton have arrived from the East, and will probably settle permanently in this vicinity. Mr. M. Oefinger, who was called to Stockton by the intelligence that his brother was dying, arrived home again early this week. Mr. E. E. Dilley, who has been very ill for the past few weeks, arrived home from Norwalk with his family, where he was stopping during his illness. Mr. D. K. Williams, an old-time resident of Anaheim, was tempted to come down from Los Angeles this week and renew old acquaintances. Miss Jennie Gardiner of Orangethorpe is home again from her sojourn at the beach, and has taken up her work in Pellegrin's photographic studio. Capt. A. S. Ferguson arrived from San Francisco on Thursday, but has been too much engaged in the work of his rancho to call upon his friends. Wetmore is nothing if not sanguine. He says that the Prohibition States will help California to get the bill through Congress, prohibiting the sale of adulterated wines, because pure wine is needed for medicinal purposes. He also says: "The fruit juice brandy is an interest that comes in conflict with the interest of wine makers. New York uses 600,000 gallons of thus stuff every year. San Francisco uses 70,000 gallons. There is perhaps a million gallons of it made." "Stretched" by the addition of water, it will make two million gallons of wine." The raisin makers of Fresno met last week and passed resolutions addressed to the railroad company, protesting against the freight rate from Fresno to San Francisco and other points. They claim that Riverside is able to make shipments to Eastern points at one-half the rates paid by the Fresno shippers. By arrangements made in Boston between the A., T. & S. F. Railway and the S. P. Company, rates on grapes attached to passenger trains are advanced to $600 a car to Chicago. The change took place Tuesday. It is to be regretted that the roads found this step necessary, as there were two to four cars a day going out, but this raise in cost of transportation is likely to stop the movement. In train lots of ten cars they will be carried for $300 a car. By ice-cars attached to freight trains they cost $400, take eight days to go through, and are said to arrive in good shape. The St. Helena Star says that "the grape crop in Napa Valley this year, taken as a whole, is a fair average crop; not nearly as large as at first reported, but still quite satisfactory in point of quality to all growers. The quality is said to be excellent and is all the better because the vines are not burdened by an overproduction. Wine-making will commence in from two to three weeks, He Peels Comfortable. Geo C.
