ANAHEIM. IT RECEIVES A VERY EXHAUSTIVE WRITING UP From the Correspondents of the Los Angeles Papers. Columns of Unstinted Praise Awarded the Pioneer Colony. The New Year's Day editions of the Times, Herald, Express and Tribune were marvels of industry and intelligent effort, and were each papers of which their editors should feel proud. Following are extracts from their descriptive articles regarding Anaheim: [From the Times.] Anaheim lies 25 miles southeast of Los Angeles and 12 miles from the coast. It was the first settlement in Southern California established on the colony plan, and its success pointed the way for the long line of colony enterprises which followed. Anaheim was originally settled by Germans, They took up land in what appeared to be a sandy waste, and, by supplying it with irrigating water and devoting their energies and thrift to its development, brought it to a high state of cultivation. The original colony site comprised 1165 acres, all of which, except the business center, is devoted to vineyards and orchards. Wine making is a leading industry. In the year 1885 twenty-five new wineries were built in and idle in this wealthy settlement is now being utilized in the purchase and improvement of unoccupied land, building of a street railway, the making of roads and bridges, laying of water pipes, construction of wineries, beautifying of grounds and erection of beautiful buildings, educational and religious. The coming of the great Chicago, Santa Fe and California Railway, which appears to be a consolidation of the whole Atchisop, Topeka & Santa Fe line and connections, has been the prime cause of the awakening of great business activity in this prosperous town. The erection of half a dozen wineries in the town and several in North Anaheim has afforded a good demand for the grape crop at remunerative prices. The whole business of the town shows a steady increase. [From the Tribune.] The old German settlement of Anaheim, the oldest colony in the State of California, is the only town in Los Angeles county which has stood still during the boom of growth and improvement which has swept over the southern part of the State during the past few years. The settlement is wealthy, the people are none of them in debt, the colony has been a success, but there was about it a sort of conservative Tentonic phlegm which no Yankee fever of speculation could sweep away. Now, howeve new railroad from Riverside, to connect California Southern directly with Las Angeles, has been projected. This road will pass through Anaheim, and it is already sweeping away the cobwebs which have hung for so many years about the dreary old town. Added to the substantial prosperity which has allowed prices. A street railway and built in the town at our no longer be looked to town. From the B We are glad know a great deal about town, and all we know Anaheim is one of the county. The situation and fertility of soil is heim is rich, and being eat. We are glad to see around and letting there is no place like here.

In the year 1885 twenty-five new wineries were built in and about Anaheim. Although Anaheim early achieved success in a productive sense and became well-to-do, it still labored under the ban of being somewhat "old foggyish," and therefore was not quick to join in the general boom which generally overspread the county. Recently, however, there has been a thorough waking up. The line of the Riverside, Santa Ana and Los Angeles Railway now building through the southern end of the county, crosses the Southern Pacific at Anaheim. Some lynx-eyed real estate operators of Los Angeles, noting this fact, made a descent on the placid German town and bought up all the acres which they could obtain at their price.

Within the past two months every tract of land within the town limits, and many large tracts outside of the limits, have been bought up by a syndicate of capitalists, who propose to immediately subdivide them into business and residence lots, and place them upon the market at prices that will guarantee their speedy sale to a class of people who will build upon and otherwise improve the property, and will make this their future home. Descriptive articles of the town and other advertising matter will be distributed broadcast over the whole of this vast countryside; excursions will be organized from principal points direct to the town, auction sales of lots will be held, and everything else that capital and energy can do will be done to encourage a steady stream of immigration this way.

The large amount of money that has been so long Situated as it is in one of the most favored locations, all things considered, in Los Angeles county, with a large area of rich and fertile country tributary to it, what is already a substantial town, has needed but a touch of modern Southern California enterprise to make it astonish not only its neighbors but itself by its rapid and vigorous growth. It may not be amiss in this connection to call attention to some figures which have been gathered from a perfectly reliable source relative to the yield of this year. The orange crop this year will average from 150 to 300 boxes per acre, and as prices range from $1.25 to $3 per box, the profits can be easily calculated. The grape crop will this year net the owners of vineyards from $75 to $150 per acre. Next to figures showing what profits can be realized from cultivating lands in any locality, the investment seekers—and the country is just now full of them—will be interested in knowing something about the prices of the lands themselves, and this can not be better illustrated than by calling attention to some lands actually offered for sale. A seventy-acre tract of land lying one and a half miles south of Anaheim, now being plowed preparatory to permanent improvement, and which has already been prepared for irrigation, is for sale at $100 per acre. A forty-acre farm within two miles of Anaheim, all in grapes and having a large winery connected with it, can be purchased for $16,000. A one-hundred and sixty-acre farm, six miles from town, all under cultivation, with handsome farm residence, barns, etc., is for sale at $16,800. To give an idea of the prices asked for property in the town of Anaheim, it may be stated that one of the handsomest homes in the county, which has connected with it eight acres of ground, is priced at $10,000. Oranges, grapes, deciduous fruits, in fact, almost every variety of fruit grown in Southern California, are grown on the beautiful grounds surrounding this residence. Attention might be called to numerous other properties now offered for sale here which seem to be rare bargains, but the above will suffice in any other settlement of the same size in the State. The numerous merchants command a prosperous trade, too, and the producers have access to the ocean transportation at Anaheim Landing, twelve miles from the town. Capt.

A street railway and a new hotel are to be built in the town at once, and Anaheim can no longer be looked upon as a slow-going town. From the Porcupine We are glad of this because we know a great deal about the substantial old town, and all we know is to her advantage. Anaheim is one of the first places in the county. The situation, for climate, water, and fertility of soil is unsurpassed. Anaheim is rich, and being rich has been modest. We are glad to see her people stirring around and letting the world know that there is no place like home—Anaheim. Death on a Bob-Sled. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., January 2.—A large bob-sled, containing eleven gentlemen and nine ladies, who were en route to the Heine residence, three miles southeast of this city, to attend a dance, was struck by an east-bound fast freight train on the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago railway, while the sled was crossing the track last evening, killing two and injuring seven ladies. The gentlemen all escaped unhurt, several of them jumping from the sled. The scene just after the accident beggars description. The groans and cries from the wounded were heartrending. The following is a list of the killed and injured: Killed—Mrs. Lizzie Lepper, aged 23, and Miss Tina Mincke, aged 17. Injured—Miss Lotta Eix, leg broken; Miss Lizzie Kanning, ribs broken; Miss Lena Haight, arm broken; Miss Emma Shuler, Wine and the Vintage At the regular meeting of the State Vitis-cultural Commission held on Tuesday, a few more scraps of information about grape culture were added to the public stock. Several new varieties of grapes were brought to notice, among others the Pinotrose, which yields a delicate white wine; the petit Bonscher, which is a more prolific bearer than the Zinfandel; and the Sauvignon vert, which, according to Mr. Krug, produced the astonishing quantity of fifteen and a third tons to the acre, with 25 per cent of sugar, in a vineyard at St. Helena. Mr. Wetmore uttered a few words of needed caution in regard to the Malbec, which is being grown, perhaps too liberally. It is very liable to coulure, and should only be used as a blend for other clarets, in the proportion of 5 per cent. He also drew attention to the singular fact that the district of South Los Angeles were taking on a decided Madeira type. It will be many years before we know precisely what grapes are best suited to the widely varying soils contained in this State. At the present time the Zinfandel and the Mataro are the most popular and the most profitable grapes to raise for clarets. But they are liable any day to be superseded by varieties whose juice possesses a more exquisite flavor. It looks now as if Fresno and Los Angeles would settle down to the production of full-bodied sweet wines, while the choicest clarets would continue to be produced in Sonoma and Napa. But all this may change, as the area of wine-growing increases and experience teaches us what varieties to plant. Good Resolutions A good many people are in the habit of forming good resolutions on the first of the year with a suspicion latent in their minds that all of them will not be strictly kept. They say to themselves that if they keep one month they are so much the better for having made it. It is a question, however, if the will power is not impaired by breaking a resolution to an extent that covers any good that might arise from a temporary abstinence from the evil practice resolved against. A man, for example, may resolve to attend church regularly the coming year. He goes two or three Sundays, then finds an excuse for not going. When he looks in his mental mirror he acknowledges himself a failure. If his judgment had not approved of his resolution he would not have made it. When he breaks it he stands in his own estimation as a man who has not strength of will to make a slight sacrifice of comfort in obedience to his own sense of right. The man who frequently resolves not to drink loses the confidence of his associates in proportion to the frequency of such changes of purpose. In time the feebleness of will which shows itself in these lapses from the standard aimed at becomes apparent in other matters. Men who do not much care whether other men drink or not become distrustful of a man who frequently breaks his own contract with himself. Men who have been caught on the wrong side of the market in a stock speculation sometimes resolve that in the year to come they will let stocks severely alone. This is a good resolution to make and a better one to keep. But a man who proclaims this resolution in January Port Wayne and Chicago railway, while the sled was crossing the track last evening, killing two and injuring seven ladies. The gentlemen all escaped unhurt, several of them jumping from the sled. The scene just after the accident beggars description. The groans and cries from the wounded were heartrending. The following is a list of the killed and injured: Killed—Mrs. Lizzie Lepper, aged 23, and Miss Tina Mincke, aged 17. Injured—Miss Lotta Eix, leg broken; Miss Lizzie Kanning, ribs broken; Miss Lena Haight, arm broken; Miss Emma Shuler, leg broken; Miss Gusta Heine, back sprained; Miss Lizzie Wiebke and Miss Belle Bishop also sustained slight injuries. A relief train with several surgeons was sent to the scene of the accident, which was just outside the city limits, and a conveyance brought the killed and injured to this city, where they were properly taken care of. The driver was warned not to attempt to cross the tract—a caution which he did not heed. Sad Death of Judge Hines. San Buenaventura, Cal., January 1.—Col. J. D. Hines going home in his wagon from Ventura the night of December 30th was thrown from his wagon, near Nordheff, his horses running home. Search was made all day yesterday but the Colonel has not yet found; his hat, cane and wagon seat were found where he was supposed to have been thrown out. It is supposed that he struck on his head, became deranged and got lost in the bush. Lager—News is just received from North-hoff that the body of Col. J. D. Hines was found this morning about 8 o'clock, about three miles from where he was thrown from his wagon. He had fallen over a bluff about thirty feet in height, tell on his head and was killed. He was evidently crazy after his fall from the wagon and knew not where he was going. Col. Hines was the late State Grand Master of Masons and also Superior Judge of Ventura county. Renews Her Youth. Mrs. Phoebe Chesley, Peterson, Clay Co., Iowa, tells the following remarkable story, the truth of which is vouchered for by the residents of the town: "I am 73 years old, have been troubled with kidney complaint and lameness for many years; could not dress myself without help. Now I am free from all pain and soreness, and am able to do all my own housework. I owe my thanks to Electric Bitters for having renewed my youth, and removed completely all disease and pain."

A very distressful condition of affairs was brought to light. It was shown that 30,000 people in those counties are in need of food clothing and food aid. Indigestion or Constipation.

In time the feebleness of will which shows itself in these lapses from the standard aimed at becomes apparent in other matters. Men who do not much care whether other men drink or not become distrustful of a man who frequently breaks his own contract with himself. Men who have been caught on the wrong side of the market in a stock speculation sometimes resolve that in the year to come they will let stocks severely alone. This is a good resolution to make and a better one to keep. But a man who proclaims this resolution in January and is found dealing in stocks in February is held in less esteem than the man who steadily proposes to make up his losses. The judgment of the latter may be questioned, but his will power has not admitted its own weakness. More than most people realize the will power is the key to character. It is easier to inspire a strong man with good purposes than a weak one with any purpose at all. Married couples who have begun to develop differences in temperament and toils sometimes mutually resolve to bear with each other the coming year. If they are so constituted that one must get angry occasionally they resolve to get angry one at a time. The one that shows temper first is to enjoy a monopoly of the privilege for that occasion. Now the one of the firm who adheres most rigidly to the terms of the compact not only wins the respect of but ultimately controls the other. Every manifestation of the power of self-control is its own reward. The mind grows strong in the contemplation of its own victory. The only Way to Conquer Dyspepsia. It is perfectly preposterous to introduce pepsi and other artificial solvents into the stomach, in the expectation that they will assist digestion by acting on the food itself. They will not. Nor is it possible thus to overcome dyspepsia. The only way to conquer that disorder, and prevent the numerous diseases which it assures provokes, is to renew the activity of gastric action by strengthening the stomach. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters eradicates the most inveterate forms of indigestion by restoring vitality to the alimentary organs, and those which are tributary to them. The liver, the bowels, the kidneys and then nerves, no less than the stomach, experience the invigorative effects of that standard tonic, which possesses alternative properties that greatly enhance its beneficial influence, and give a permanence to its effects which they would not otherwise possess. In Norristown, Pa., lives a young lady who has lost all the use of her jaw from chewing gum. It is said that men living at Norristown, who have heretofore looked upon gum chewing as a vulgar, filthy habit, now buy it by the box and leave it lying around loose, where their wives will be most likely to find it. Some say "Consumption can't be cured." Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, as proved by forty years' experience, will cure this disease when not already advanced beyond the The Texas Drought. Albany, Tex., January 2.—A convention of county judges from twenty-one counties affected by the drought was held today. A very distressful condition of affairs was brought to light. It was shown that 30,000 people in those counties are in need of food, clothing and fuel. An urgent appeal will be made to the State and national governments, and the country at large for aid. Half a million of dollars is needed to relieve the immediate wants of these people. A Captain's Fortunate Discovery. Capt. Coleman, schr. Weymouth, plying between Atlantic City and New York, had been troubled with a cough so that he was unable to sleep, and was induced to try Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption. It not only gave him instant relief, but allayed the extreme soreness in his breast. His children were similarly affected and a single dose had the same happy effect. Dr. King's New Discovery is now the standard remedy in the Coleman household and on board the schooner. Free Trial Bottles of this Standard Remedy at A. Krug's drug store. The State University is ready to distribute plants and seeds to applicants. Among the plants described is the following: Esparto Grass.—Stipa tenaci sima, the grass so extensively used in the Mediterranean countries for cordage, baskets, etc., and lately exported in large quantities as a material for paper-making. It grows naturally on sandy beaches, within reach of salt water, but will doubtless be found adapted to many saline and alkaline lands now unreclaimed or occupied by the common tule. It should be thoroughly tested in sandy coast lands southward of the bay, and in South California. Ten plants to each lot; 25c. per lot by express. No sufferer from any serofulous disease, who will fairly try Ayer's Sarsaparilla, need despair of a cure. It will purge the blood of all impurities, thereby destroying the germs from which serofula is developed, and will infuse new life and vigor throughout the whole physical organization. Indigestion or Constipation.

Southwick of this city, a member of the Commission on Capital Penishment, appointed by the Legislature last spring to report a substitute for hanging convicted murderers, was asked by a reporter what the general sentiment on the question appeared to be; so far as ascertained. Dr. Southwick replied that the committee expected to present their report to the Governor during the latter part of January. "Electricity," said the Doctor, "seems to be the most acceptable substitute for hanging. Neither the prussic acid, nor the poison, nor the garrote suggestions meet with any favor. A few persons advocate the guillotine, but this is a barbarous mode of operation. The general sentiment in this country, as well as elsewhere, is that capital punishment is necessary, and the object of our inquiry is to ascertain what substitute for hanging will best be in accord with humanity and the enlightened spirit of the age. "The plan I favor is that of an armchair with metal arms. The condemned would be seated in the chair, and at the proper moment receive a full electric charge through the metallic arms. This would pass straight through his body across the chest, and death would be instantaneous. A dynamo of 42 horse power would be sufficient to accomplish the work with neatness and despatch." Suicide. DR. FLINT'S HEART REMEDY has saved more lives by timely use, and has kept from suicide or the insane asylum more victims of nervous disorders, than all the physicians with their pet methods of treatment. At druggists, $1.50. Descriptive treaties with each bottle. In Norristown, Pa., lives a young lady who has lost all the use of her jaw from chewing gum. It is said that men living at Norristown, who have heretofore looked upon gum chewing as a vulgar, filthy habit, now buy it by the box and leave it lying around loose, where their wives will be most likely to find it. Some say "Consumption can't be cured." Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, as proved by forty years' experience, will cure this disease when not already advanced beyond the reach of medical aid. Even then its use affords very great relief, and insures refreshing sleep. Voice from Oregon. The fame of the National Horse Liniment has gone abroad, and the farmers of Oregon are in extracies over it. Mr. Thomas Peach of La Grande says: "I have used various liniments, but last year I commenced using the National Horse Liniment, and can truly say that it is the best liniment I have ever used and has given entire satisfaction, and will not be without it." Mr. W. M. Higgins is the Agent. MR. BENNETT—Dear Sir: By accident I came across your Insulator (a new invention to me) and perceiving at once the wonderful change in the tone of the piano since my last visit to that house, I concluded that I could do without them, and therefore beg you to furnish me a set at your earliest convenience. Anybody who will take the 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 bare floor; and we will have that clear, bell-like ringing tone we so much desire. Your most obedient, GUSTAVE A. SCOTT, 428 Elyly, Organist Calvary Church and Synagogue Ohabai Shalome. A limited number of these instruments has been secured by A. L. Pellegrin who will attend to any orders left with him. Still Another. It is very gratifying to receive testimonials like the following from Mr. Wm. Lammon of Sammerville, Oregon: "I have been using the National Horse Liniment for two years, and have found it far superior to anything I have ever used." It does all that it is recommended to perform, and I cannot do without it." Mr. W. M. Higgins is Agent. GAZETTE. Y 8, 1887. NO. 14. F. H. KEITH, REAL ESTATE AGENT.
