WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY...SEPTEMBER 25, 1896 Kleinigkeiten. Extra copies of the GAZETTE are kept on sale at the stores of J. Helmsen and Max Nebelung. The Orangethorpe school re-opens on Monday, the 27th inst., with Mr. S. S. Wood as teacher. A platform has been erected in front of the Planters’ Hotel for use by the political parties during the campaign. This is the time of year when bearing orange trees need propping. Get your prop-pings cheap from G. Reichmann. See adv. The hotel at Lancaster, owned by M.L. Wicks, and the store of Frank Glencross were destroyed by fire on Tuesday afternoon. The "Southern California Guide Book," an interesting and useful publication, has been issued by George E. Place & Co. We acknowledge the receipt of a copy. Mr. Dilley and family have removed from the residence on Los Angeles street near the Masonic Hall to the house owned by Mr. Moores north of the school house. Geo. D. Field, Esq., of Anaheim, was admitted to practice in the Superior Court by Judge Cheney on Monday, on presenting a certificate from the Supreme Court of Massachusetts. A lodge of A. O. U. W. will be organized at Orange this evening, and a large delegation of members of the order from Anaheim and Santa Ana will probably be present. It has been decided not to remove the ostrich farm from its present location. Superintendent Reid has, we are sorry to say, tendered his resignation to the company. R. Messra, Yarnell and Bonsall of the company which is handling the Shanklin tract, were in town on Tuesday. They expect to secure a number of settlers on the tract shortly. Their position in Los Angeles gives them good opportunities for diverting home-seekers in this direction, and it is a matter for congratulation that they have become interested in this section. The advertisement of the Shanklin tract was written at this office, and among other statements made was one that the land was specially adapted for "wine and raisin grapes." Mr. Yarnell objects to having any wine grape land advertised for sale in his name. In a letter he says: "Please take out all reference to wine in the Shanklin land advertisement, and as you have put me on record as offering land for wine grapes, please publish the fact that it was done without my knowledge; that I am opposed to wine making, and that I do not want to sell any land for that purpose." Melrose & Knapp sold ten acres of land south-west of town, owned by F. Hartung, to Emanuel Sands, who will shortly begin to improve his place. Mr. Sands and his mother came here a few days ago intending to rent a house in town until he could build but was compelled to return to Los Angeles as he could not find a vacant house in Anaheim. This is the second case of the kind that has come to our knowledge lately, and a remedy must be devised if it is desired that the town shall prosper. A joint stock company having for its object the building of a number of cheap but substantial houses is about the most pressing need of the times. The Directors of the S. A. V. I. Co.'s have proposed that in the summer months when water is scarce all the water in the river be taken out at Bed Rock Canyon in the Cajon ditch and carried therein for a distance of between two and three miles to the point of division, thus preventing considerable loss from seepage and evaporation. They propose to join the Anaheim company in constructing a dam in the river, and will pay one half the operating expenses of that part of the ditch used jointly, and also one-half of any improvements made thereon. The proposition is viewed favorably by the Directors of the A. U. W. Co. by Judge Cheney on Monday, on presenting a certificate from the Supreme Court of Massachusetts. A lodge of A. O. U. W. will be organized at Orange this evening, and a large delegation of members of the order from Anaheim and Santa Ana will probably be present. It has been decided not to remove the ostrich farm from its present location. Superintendent Reid has, we are sorry to say, tendered his resignation to the company. R. J. Northern is acting Superintendent. There is nothing monotonous about the proceedings of the Holmness Band at Azusa. On Friday it last week a colored man was shot twice by John Jones in the Tabernaecile Jones is a cowboy, not an evangelist. Mr. William Fischer has purchased the dwelling on the corner of Lemon and First North streets, formerly the property of D. K. Williams, for $500. He moved into the house with his family on Monday. Jimson weed is plentiful hereabouts, and it should be borne in mind that the seeds are poisonous. Several children in Oakland ate some of the seeds a few days ago, and all were made violently ill. One of the children died on Monday. The safe in the railroad station at Downey was blown open on Sunday night, and $33 so belonging to the railroad company, $40 to the telegraph company, and $2 to the express company was taken. This is the third time that the safe in this depot has been burglarized. In manufacturing sorghum syrup this year Mr. J. Y. Anderson of Westminster will bring to his aid a steam engine, which will enable him to manufacture the syrup much cheaper than by the old plan, so that consumers will get this excellent and wholesome article at a lower price than formerly. Kellogg Bros. have put in a hay scale, similar to the one on Los Angeles street near Cahen's store, in front of the warehouse adjoining their store at the depot. This will be a great convenience in saving time and labor in weighing loads of agricultural or other products, doing away with the custom of weighing each sack or parcel separately. There is a vineyard in the vicinity of the school house that attracts the attention of the "kids" during recess. They are tempted by the luscious appearance of the grapes to help themselves surreptitiously. After complaint was made to the teachers by the grower, the children "kept clear" of the vineyard, which shows the effect of moral suasion. It is reported that the San Joaquin rancho, owned by the Irvine heirs, has been sold for one and a quarter million dollars, and it is further rumored that the purchasers are the Southern Pacific Railroad Co. Their object is said to be to prevent the California Southern from getting a right of way through the rancho to Oceanside. All these rumors, except possibly, the one that a sale has been made, are not entitled to much credence. Anaheim is one of the worst towns in the State at the present time for individuals who are looking for work and don't want to find it. Great difficulty is experienced in getting southwest men to work in the vineyards. The Indians who used to be relied upon during the vintage season have not put in an appearance for a couple of years past, and they are badly missed by the barrassed grape grower at the present time. A novel proposition is about to be acted upon in Ventura, where the streets are to be sprinkled with crude petroleum instead of water. A very little petroleum will lay the dust and keep it down for a long time. The streets of Anaheim have not been sprinkled for a week, pending the repairs on the water tank, and a bath of petroleum or something else is what they badly need. Petroleum may be good for the streets, but possibly it may be bad for the people. Road Oversee Paty makes the following response to the complaint made regarding a certain road in his district: "My attention was called to Sycamore street through your last week's paper. On the 20th inst. I examined the road and found it in very good condition, with the exception of a few chuck holes. If that chronic growler who found fault-with the road will feed more, use more axle grease and attend to his own business, he will pass over that agonizing road with less noise." Mr. McDermott, a relative of Mrs. Flotow of Anaheim, and who has lived in Westminster for the past few years, is reported as having erected a building at San Pedro, which will be opened as a boarding-house. George Cowan, lately of Anaheim, has accepted a position as waiter in the house.

Loyalties of those involved in war remembrance speak volumes about their commitment to honoring fallen soldiers while maintaining peace within their community. "The War led to by these rose who wandered into battle without regard for justice." There is a vineyard in the vicinity of the school house that attracts the attention of the "kids" during recess. They are tempted by the luscious appearance of the grapes to help themselves surreptitiously. After complaint was made to the teachers by the grower, the children "kept clear" of the vineyard, which shows the effect of moral suasion. A man named Ackerman, who has for some months past been running the Star Restaurant in Anaheim, decamped early on Friday morning of last week, taking with him all the available funds he could collect, and leaving his wife in gloomy circumstances. Domestic difficulty is assigned as the cause for his sudden departure, and it has not been learned whither he went. However, if the lady would choose to assume personal management of the restaurant, she will doubtless receive a large share of the public patronage. An accident which might have resulted in the killing of a horse and the breaking of the mammoth window in the postoffice happened on Sunday evening last. Victor Browning had his horse, a spirited animal, tied to the hitching post, when some person passed by with a buggy close to the heels of the bronco. It is thought that the wheel of the vehicle must have touched the animal, for it became frightened and jumped over the hitching plank, falling on its back. After exerting itself to gain the ground, a lively struggle was necessary to accomplish the act. It pulled at the rope with its back facing the office, and nearly crashed the window and casing by falling against them, nage that nothing serious occurred. formerly of Arizona, will open Academy (for ladies and chil- Saturday) afternoon, from 2 to 4 admission for children 25 cents, cents. Mr. McDermott, a relative of Mrs. Flowow of Anaheim, and who has lived in Westminster for the past few years, is reported as having erected a building at San Pedro, which will be opened as a boarding-house. George Cowan, lately of Anaheim, has accepted a position as waiter in the house. The large and constantly increasing business of Messrs. T. J. F. Boege & Co has compelled them to employ a cooper for manufacturing exclusively their own cooperage, such as barrels, half barrels, ten and five-gallon kegs, and doin; the repairing that may be necessary. The cooper shop of F. Weis is used for the purpose. The railroad company has recently put in steel rails on the branch route between Santa Ana and Los Angeles. Considerable repairing is going on around the Anaheim depot in fixing side tracks and planking the wagon crossings. The company is sparing no means in having sound work done in all the different branches. Mr. Deethman has closed his store opposite the Planters' Hotel, and will give his attention at present to the care of his ranch west of town. It is his intention to leave permanently for Chicago with his family as soon as his affairs here will permit him so to do. A party of farmers from Modoc county, who recently sold their places in that section, camped in town on Thursday night. There are seven families, and the covered-wagon train is bound for San Diego county, where the parties intend to take up or purchase land. Mrs. Cain will give a Grand Social Party at Kroeger's Hall on Friday evening, October 1st. Admission, $1 per couple. Malvern Hill Post The organization of Malvern Hill Post on Friday evening of last week at Old Fellows' Hall was quite an event in the history of Anaheim. Sedgewick Post of Santa Ana turned out as masse to assist their Anaheim comrades, and the Womans' Relief Corps and the Sons of Veterans were also present in force. The installation was public, and the officers of the new Post were indicted into office by Comrades Berry and Shaffer and other members of Sedgewick Post. After the installation, a superb collation was served in the auto room, and though the attendance was much larger than had been anticipated, there was more than an abundance of what the soldier boys called "grub." Commander McDermont officiated happily as Master of Ceremonies, and his introduction of the various speakers who responded to the toast was very felicitous. The first toast was "Malvern Hill Post," which was responded to by Comrade B. P. Land, who participated in that noted battle. He said: To night another Post of the G. A. R. has been mustered into the Department of California, and I have been called to the front by my superior officer to answer to the toast and announce the name and number of this Post, selected by the comrades of this Post. It is a general order from national headquarters to name a Post after some deceased officer or comrade who served in the late war for the preservation of the Union, or if preferred battle-fields can be used for the same purpose. The comrades of this Post have selected the name of a noted battle-field as the name of their Post. At Wilson Creek, Missouri, August 10th, 1861, a terrible battle was fought, and the joy if boys that wore the blue were there in large numbers from almost every loyal State in the Union. They fought well and bravely in that fierce conflict against superior numbers. This is the battle-field where the brave Lyon was killed. Methinks I see written across the face of that great battlefield, in letters of fire, Malvern Hill. Stone River, Tenn., December 31, 1862, to January 4th, 1863, was one of the hardest fought battles in the Southwest. The Union troops under Gen. Rosecrans numbered 45,000. Of these 1,474 were killed, 6,813 were wounded and 2,022 were missing. The rebels under Gen. Bragg numbered 62,000; of all these men who have been involved in this battle-field, Mr. M. B. Terrans, the chief charge of the field corps of the Rifle L. A. R. R. Company, began on this day to make surveys north of town on ridge of the sand-wash to see whether would be practicable along that road survey is in response to a request from the Chief Engineer by Messrs. James. In a letter to these men which can be seen at the Bank of Mr. Perria re-affirms the views required route of the road, ensuring the railroad meeting held some time Anaheim will get a railroad, with near the business center of town able, and we may then expect it in the way some of us have been long time to see. The Los Angeles Herald says: in active progress at last on the Coast of the S. P. Railway between New Ventura. There are several hundred grading from the former point to Newball rancho toward the head of the Santa Clara. This force will be based at once to 2000 men. By this year the ocean will be reached progressive seaport of Ventura. The C. S. Railway branch from via Arlington to Anaheim is also ward. There are some 300 men at the canyon grading the roadbed, has yet been laid, and it is impossible earth future plans for this roadhead for this city from Anaheim, but or not a branch will go down free to tide water at San Pedro or at Santa Lucia is like Lord Dundreary's countryside just as likely not to do so as to fore many moons wane work will be on the road from this city to Santa Lucia. In a new country like this an hour is not much in crossing the continental tween Chicago and New York & can save an hour in time gets all that traffic. No so here. So it is like as not that, the C. S. Co. may run from San Bernardino via Arlington heim and Los Angeles to tide water ta Monica. This is a thing that "can bind out, you know." There is on exhibition at the park a Queen Victoria grape grown on a siee vine 2½ years from the cutting did not have the joint solemn assisf F. H. Keith and Fred. Hartung facts herein stated are true to their knowledge and belief, we would that the grape was a squash, as it markably like one and weighs no pounds.

The gallant Union troops with the brave Gen. Risecrans for their leader fought that battle hard and well. They hurried the rebels with a yell down to the gates of hell. And still, me-thinks I see written across the face of that great and glorious battle-field, in letters of glittering gold, Malvern Hill. MAINERN HILL, Va., July 1st, 1862. This is where one of the hardest fought battles of the Peninsula campaign was fought under the command of the brave and gallant Gen. Geo. B. McClellan, or "Little Mack," as the boys used to call him. I think I ought to know something of that battle, for I was there. The fight commenced about 10 o'clock in the morning. For a short time it was not very fierce; but the rebel force was brought up to a closer position. They were met gallantly, and the battle raged fiercely. The enemy were moved down by thousands with terrible slaughter. The converging fire of three hundred cannon from the Union batteries and the hundred-pound shells from the gun-boats spread such wild dismay and fearful destruction that the most frantic appeals of the rebel leaders could not urge forward their troops. The enemy's lines at last gave way and they fled utterly demoralized, leaving the field strewn with thousands of their dead. Thus terminated the brief but great battle of Malvern Hill. It is not strange, then, that I saw written across the face of that great and glorious battle field, Stone River, in letters of glittering gold, Malvern Hill. I christen this Post, Malvern Hill, No. 126. To the toast, "Soldgewick Post," Comrade Mosbaugh responded in a happily-worded address, in which on behalf of his Post he thanked the Anaheim comrades for their courteous and hearty hospitality. "The Womans' Relief Corps" was responded to by Mrs. J. W. Layman, who spoke effectively and well, and did the toast full justice. To the toast, "The Grand Army of the Republic," Comrade Berry responded in one of those brilliant addresses for which he has a wide reputation. He is an eloquent and ready speaker, and the familiar theme received a new dressing. "The Ladies" received attention from Comrade Irvin, the Chaplain of the new Post, who paid a warm tribute to the work performed by the women in camp and hospital during the war. Mr. Irvin as full of war remembrances, and is a most entertaining speaker. The last toast, "The Union," was responded to by Brevet-Comrade Richard Melrose, who was introduced by the Commander as one who had been connected with the U.S. Pay Department and who had cheered some whose names were published a few weeks ago are still busily engaged, while others have already finished working up their crop. There are, however, several others whose names have not been handed in for publication. In Orangethorpe and North Anaheim both wine-makers and grape growers are either busy crushing grapes or hauling to the wineries of purchasers. W. J. Smith,-J. Wintter, H. Burlorff and others have already made wine. Alex Wright is making his wine with an Anaheim wine-maker. It has been said that McPherson Bros. of Orange propose to purchase grapes this year only in the sweat box. It appears strange that, after the growers have gone to the trouble of partially curing their grapes by getting them as far as the sweat box, they will agree to dispose of them in this condition. If a grower goes to the work and expense of bringing his grapes that far, he might as well cure, pack and prepare them entirely himself for the market. A raisin-packing establishment is one of the necessities in this vicinity, as there are innumerable vineyards here of the Muscat variety of grapes. Some growers in North Anaheim have taken this subject into consideration, but it is most too late this season to accomplish anything in the way of erecting buildings and putting up the necessary machinery, unless, perhaps, the proposed works were to be pushed with all possible speed. However, we hope next year to have a packing house, so that we can cure and pack our products at home and do away with the work and expense of hauling the grapes to the suburban establishments. We look to Mr. Theo. Staley for relief in this matter. Mr. Morris, the Chicago fruit dealer mentioned in these columns some weeks ago, made a flying visit to Anaheim on Thursday. A letter received from his firm a few days ago predicted large prices for California oranges the coming season. It said that Jamaica oranges were being received in the Chicago market and selling readily at from $8 to $9 per barrel, equal to $4 and $4 50 per box; the boxes being smaller than those used here. There will be few oranges from Florida and Louisiana this season, and the market will necessarily depend on California for the bulk of the supply. A telegram received by Mr. Morris on Wednesday said that choice grapes were selling readily at $3 and $3 50 per crate—about $8 cents per lb. The St. Helena Star complains that "it is a matter of common knowledge that certain large manufacturers of wine in this county are going abroad to the counties of Solano, Yolo, Fresno and Sacramento, and there purchasing inferior grapes at low prices, shipping them to this valley and making Napa Valley wine of them." There is on exhibition at the park a Queen Victoria grape grown on an sie vine 2) years from the cutting did not have the joint solemn asses F.H. Keith and Fred. Hartung facts herein stated are true to those their knowledge and belief, we would that the grape was a squash, as it markably like one and weighs two pounds. It appears that Mr. Keith ed his fine Malvoisie grapes to Mr., and told him that he would deliver same time some extra fine Victoria which he did. But when working last load, the crusher stopped with thud. The Celestial at the crush thrown as from a catapult into a tail mace, and there was a jar of the bacon caused by the sudden stopping of thenery, which made Mr. Hartung earthquake had strayed away from ton. The crusher had refused to this monster grape, which was reasoned to sent to postoffice to exhibit to an ing public. Sealed proposals will be edited by Mr. Keith for seed of this rem Grape. A most horrible crime was committed in Los Angeles on Friday night of late about 8 o'clock. Albert Bayton, glish gardener, for some time past his very abusive in his treatment of his children When he came to supper on the night tragedy he found fault with it, and so rough that his wife took her four children and went to the house of abor named J.B.Kipp. Bayton fined her and tried to induce her to return refused to do so. A few moments Bayton pushed the door open, with cocked revolver in his hand,and with word shot his wife, who died almost ly Mr.Kipp,aged 65was then get for the murderer's aim,and he ran a bullet in the groin.The next vict Nettie Kipp,aged 16,how received ad in the abdomen.Bayton then dragged into the yard and beat him to death w revolver,during which proceeding he arrested by neighbors and taken Great indignation and excitement enand if Bayton had not been placed,the protection of the authorities so sphe he would have been lynched.The erer jury charged Bayton with murder says he will plead guilty,and expect hanged.Nettie Kipp is not yet dealtthe chances of her recovery are slight. F.V.Chevallier died in Los Angeles Wednesday morning,aged 56 years,a long illness。He was the father of John Hartung of Anaheim. The Supreme Court will convene Angeles on October 13th. The Ladies received attention from Comrade Irvin, the Chaplain of the new Post, who paid a warm tribute to the work performed by the women in camp and hospital during the war. Mr. Irvin is full of war reminiscences, and is a most entertaining speaker. The last toast, "The Union," was responded to by Brevet-Comrade Richard Melrose, who was introduced by the Commander as one who had been connected with the U.S. Pay Department, and who had cheered the hearts of the boys in camp many a time by his welcome appearance with a chest of greenbacks. In beginning his address, the speaker said he had one more claim to a brevet rank in the G.A.R.; the first American dollar he had earned was by making cartridges during the war with which to decimate our friends, the enemy. He then delivered a eulogy on "The Union," after which three rousing cheers for "The Union" were given, and all present joined in the song "Raily Round the Flag, Boys." It was about midnight when adjournment was had after passing various votes of thanks. The music by Prof. Packard, Mr. and Mrs. Knapp and Mr. Grimshaw was a feature of the evening's entertainment which deserves special mention. The Post organized with 24 members, but it is expected that the membership will reach 40 in a few weeks. Following is a list of the present members: A. McDermont, Commander; E. Barr, Sr. Vice Commander; H. C. Gade, Jr. Vice Commander; W. A. Witte, Officer of the Day; Rev. G. A. Irvin, Chaplain; T. K. McDowell, Quartermaster; Wm. H. Hounsom, Officer of the Guard; S. S. Wood, Surgeon; W. A. Packard, Adjutant; B. F. Land, Sergt. Major; J. B. McCullough, Quartermaster's Sergeant; D. B. Gray, A. E. Hendricks, Charles Baker, A. V. Howard, G. W. Sponable, Delos Mogon, P. A. Schumacher, Wm. Young, A.E. White, F. S.Wallace, E. Leonard, R.M.Gamble, Rev.M.O.McNiff. The St. Helena Star complains that "it is a matter of common knowledge that certain large manufacturers of wine in this county are going abroad to the counties of Solano, Yolo, Fresno and Sacramento, and there purchasing inferior grapes at low prices, shipping them to this valley and making Napa Valley wine of them." In ten years the consumption of raisins and currants in France has increased from 6,000 tons to 65,000 tons annually. They are used in the manufacture of wine, and the liquor produced is declared to be perfectly wholesome, possessing many of the properties of wine made from the juice of the grape. Mr. Chilson exhibited yesterday some corn planted in May after the rains and grown without irrigation and but little cultivation, that were as fine specimens of that cereal as could be found anywhere. Many of the stalks bore three large ears of corn, while the bulk of the stalks in the field bore two ears. Mr. Chilson had some peaches, also grown without irrigation, which were extraordinarily large. The last thirty peaches picked from one of his trees weighed twenty pounds, and some of the fruit was not larger than the average. Mr. Chilson's land is in Orangethorpe district, and is a fair sample of all the land in that vicinity. The sale of the Baumgarten house and lot on Broadway, midway between Clementina and Helena's streets, is reported as having been made to a Los Angeles gentleman. The price paid for the property has not been ascertained. F.H.Keith, real estate agent, reports making the following sales: Mrs. Georgiana Williams to John R.Colin—house and lot on corner Los Angeles and Santa Ana Sts.; $800.John B.Colin to C.L.Williams—10 acres in Westminster; Personal Paragraphs. Miss Clara Messemann has returned from San Francisco where she has been a prolonged season.

Mr.Chas.Kuchel for many years the cient foreman of the Gazette office, is ing his first vacation. He is not enjoy it being in bed heipless from an excess severe attack of neuralgia. It will be weeks before he will be able to resume duties. Mr.E.J.Pellegrin has gone on a nature trip to San Diego, San Jacinto and adjacent country. He has already some pianos and sewing machines in county. Mr.C.W.Moores and family have moved to San Rafael, Matin county., Moores having received an appointment teacher in the public school at that place. Mr.A.W.Plummer, accompanied Mrs.Webb and daughter, left permanence for Los Angeles on Monday. Mr.Plumber has made many warm friends during his sidence here, who will regret to hear of departure. We join with the community wishing him success wherever he may go. Mr.C.F.Scholl of Oakland is here business connected with his vineyard on camore street,the place on which Mr.Khe resides.
