STREET CARS.—The street car line has been extended beyond Orange street. The work was done under the supervision of H. C. Gade, who has done an excellent piece of work. FOUND.—A son of Mr. W. M. McFadden found a gold pen on the road near his house some days since. The owner can have the same by calling for it and proving property. TEACHERS REAPPOINTED.—The Trustees of Anaheim School District have reappointed the teachers who served so acceptably last term, and fixed the salaries at the same figures. A GOOD PUMP.—The German Wine Pumps, imported by Theo. Reiser, are the most reliable article of their kind. They are in use in nearly every cellar and give general satisfaction. He has just received a number of various styles and sizes. TO LOCATE.—John Quinn of San Antonio, Texas, and L. Martin of Tucson, Arizona, who recently purchased 10 acres each of the Hansen place southwest of town, will locate permanently in Anaheim. INSUFFICIENT SPRINKLING.—Business men and property owners on Center street complain that the morning sprinkling of streets is insufficient for the entire day, and that sprinkling in the afternoon will be necessary. THE POSTOFFICE.—Postmaster Gardiner THE RAILROAD. THE COMPANY'S ENGINEERS SURVEY THE DEPOT GROUNDS. Look Out For The Locomotive! On last Thursday morning Surveyor M. B. Teraas, of the California Central Railroad, arrived in town with a number of assistants and surveyed the depot grounds donated by the citizens to the new railroad. A line was also run through Orange street from the southern limits of the town northward and from thence into Orangethorpe district. The line, after it leaves the northern limits of the town, passes through the property of the Land Company on Section 3, along the line between the land of Dreyfus & Melross on the west and John and J. J. Hunter on the east, between Bockman and Pfeninger, and makes a bend on the 60-acre tract purchased by Fullerton and others from Bockman, thence through Fullerton to Buena Park. This preliminary line will probably be the one adopted. As will be seen from the proceedings of the Board of Town Trustees, in another column, Orange street has been abandoned to the use of the railroad company. Judge Egan, the company's right of way agent, will be in Anaheim today, presumably to clear the way for the immediate construction of the road from Anaheim to Los Angeles. As a result of these railroad operations real estate in Anaheim is getting to be in great demand, yet we are glad to say that the prices are yet reasonable and leave a large margin for profitable investments. RAILROAD NOTES. The California Central Railroad has its road-bed nearly all graded south from Rincon, the present terminus, to several miles below San Juan by the Sea, where the railroad first reaches the ocean, three miles below San Juan Capistrano. Articles of agreement were signed Wednesday between the citizens of San Jacinto, San Diego county, and the California Central R. R. Co., whereby the citizens agree to give a subsidy of $55,000, and the company agrees to purchase it for $650.

To Locate. — John Quinn of San Antonio, Texas, and L. Martin of Tucson, Arizona, who recently purchased 10 acres each of the Hansen place southwest of town, will locate permanently in Anaheim. Insufficient Sprinkling. — Business men and property owners on Center street complain that the morning sprinkling of streets is insufficient for the entire day, and that sprinkling in the afternoon will be necessary. The Postoffice. — Postmaster Gardiner has labeled the glass call boxes with larger figures than have heretofore graced them, and the numbers of the boxes are now easily discernible. July Rain. — Last Friday morning quite a shower of rain fell in this valley, and on Saturday morning we welcomed another drizzle. The precipitation was just enough to refresh growing crops. The weather has been cloudy for some weeks past. Fine Goods. — Fred Christ, the fashionable tailor, has received a very complete assortment of goods, and as a result has been deluged with orders for clothing. He is a good tailor, and does his work at very reasonable rates. Discontinued. — Madame Lecroq has closed her dressmaking parlor and proposes to take a season of rest. She has enjoyed a good patronage since opening her establishment, and had employed several young ladies as assistants. It is probable that her parlors will be re-opened here long. New Real Estate Firm. — C. L. Ennis and W. H. Lyon have formed a partnership for the purpose of carrying on a real estate business. They are having painted, renovated and fitted up the store on Center street recently occupied by Madame Lecroq for a business office. For the "Anaheim" and "Planters." — F. L. Mason of the Planters' Hotel has discontinued the running of the old stage between the depot and the hotel, and Lewis & Waffle's omnibus has been secured to carry passengers. Their 'bus now does service for both hotels. Johnson-Stock. — Eugene B. Johnson, one of the affable clerks employed in the Lang-enberger establishment, has taken to himself a helpmate in the person of Miss Carrie C. Stock, sister of Mrs. H. C. Gade. We wish both the young folk health, wealth and prosperity. Change in Time. — A change has been made in the time schedule of the Anaheim branch of the Southern Pacific railroad. The morning train now leaves Anaheim at 7:18 o'clock instead of 6:50 a.m. as heretotome. No change has been made in the arrival or departure of other trains. The Holy Bonds. — Lynn Lyman, of the Rural Californian, and Miss Susie Smith of Anaheim were united in the holy bonds of matrimony at the Presbyterian Church on Monday evening. The ceremony was performed by Ray A. Lyman and wife. RAILROAD NOTES. The California Central Railroad has its road-bed nearly all graded south from Rincon, the present terminus, to several miles below San Juan by the Sea, where the railroad first reaches the ocean, three miles below San Juan Capistrano. Articles of agreement were signed Wednesday between the citizens of San Jacinto, San Diego county, and the California Central R. R. Co., whereby the citizens agree to give a subsidy of $55,000, and the company agrees to construct the San Jacinto Valley Railway. The Santa Monica foothill road premises to materialize. In lieu of $110,000 cash, the California Central railroad is to be extended from Oceanside to Escondido by the first of January. Whittier has subscribed $20,000 for the purpose of building a railroad to connect itself with both the Santa Fe and the Southern Pacific. The road will cross the Santa Fe line and terminate at the Southern Pacific somewhere between Anaheim and Norwalk. Malvern Hill Post, G. A. R., of this place, is in receipt of a railroad circular which informs Grand Army men that special rates have been made for those who may desire to attend the National Encampment at St. Louis. Old soldiers can make the round trip for $67. The new ticket schedule of the S. P. issues a round trip Santa Monica ticket, Sundays only, for $1 55. Round trip tickets good for Friday, Saturday and Sunday can be had for $1 90 and round trip Long Beach tickets for the same days can be had for $1 60. The California Central Railroad announces that the Santa Fe line is now open for business between the Pacific Coast and Galveston, Houston and all intermediate points in Texas, on the Gulf, Colorado and Sante Fe Railroad. A Balkish Affair. Johann Bockisch was arrested not long since and brought before Justice Fox, where he was charged with having assaulted Miss Sophia Muick. Johann was found guilty as charged and fined $5. On the 7th of the present month, the same Johann again turns up in Justice Taney's court in Los Angeles, charged with having battered the same Miss Sophia Muick. Upon which charge Justice Taney holds him in fifty dollars bail to appear for trial on the 19th instant. Behind all the foregoing lies a web of robust romance. Johann and Robert Bockisch came to this country something over a year ago from Austria. They brought with them a healthy well-developed girl. Johann is a man of family—Robert is not. Robert courted his young country-woman and she, poor thing, loved—not wisely, but too well. In time she discovered that she was enciente.

THE HOLY BONDS.—Lynn Lyman, of the Rural Californian, and Miss Susie Smith of Anaheim were united in the holy bonds of matrimony at the Presbyterian Church on Monday evening. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Geo. A. Irwin, and was witnessed by a large number of the young lady's friends. MUSICAL.—On last Saturday evening a very entertaining musicale was had at the residence of H. S. Knapp, Los Angeles street. The music and musicians were H. S. Knapp, cornet; Mrs. H. S. Knapp, piano; T. S. Grimshaw, flute; John Bockisch, first violin and Karl Bockisch, second violin. The music was fine. APRICOT SHIPPING.—F. A. Gates of Garden Grove and Browning Brothers of Orangethorpe district have been making shipments of apricots to the Los Angeles canary. Superintendent Welch says that two hundred tons of apricots are wanted at the cannery this season. Growers in this vicinity now have an opportunity of disposing of their apricot crop. TOWN TRUSTEES.—At the regular meeting of the Town Trustees an ordinance restricting the use of water for sprinkling lawns and gardens to the hours of from 5 to 8 P.M. was adopted. Also a resolution granting the California Central right of way through Orange street. The Board will meet as a Board of Equalization on the 27th, 28th and 29th instant. TYRELEARS, ATTENTION! There will be a meeting of all those who have signed the roster of the Tyrolears, those who desire to join the company, those who are friendly to the organization and the public generally at Kroeger's hall, Center street, Monday evening, July 18th, at 8 o'clock sharp. A full attendance is desired as the organization will then be completed. charged with having battered the same Miss Sophia Muick. Upon which charge Justice Taney holds him in fifty dollars bail to appear for trial on the 19th instant. Behind all the foregoing lies a web of robust romance. Johann and Robert Bockisch came to this country something over a year ago from Austria. They brought with them a healthy well-developed girl. Johann is a man of family—Robert is not. Robert courted his young country-woman and she, poor thing, loved—not wisely, but too well. In time she discovered that she was enciente. She informed Robert of that interesting fact; Robert, however, didn't take to the fact as warmly as he had taken to the girl. She then repaired to the residence of the married Bockisch, Johann, and tearfully and in terror pleaded her case. She was a stranger in a strange land, and her condition warned her of the necessity of friends, care and means in the near future. She found no sympathy, but was roughly handled instead. On the following day Robert Bockisch appeared before Justice Fox, and swore out a warrant against his married brother, Johann, charging him with having assaulted Sophia Muick. Thus the young woman was antici-pated in the courts, and the valorous Johann got off with the nominal fine of $5. Robert has skipped, it is said, and Miss Sophia, with the babe to come, will in all probability become a charge on the county. There's a big screw loose somewhere in our law machine. BUILDING AND OTHER IMPROVEMENTS A finely-finished counting room has been fitted up in the center of Northam, Cahen & Nebelung's establishment, corner of Center and Los Angeles streets. H. Boege has the contract for painting Mr. Maggard's new residence southwest of town, and when this work is completed he will engage in the painting of Kroeger's Hall and Federman's store. Many new buildings are contemplated on the newly subdivided Santa Fe tract. Langenberger's new store building is now completed and is being stored with stationery, glass and crockery. Mr. C. Stappenbeck, corner of Lemon and First North streets, has trimmed up his orange trees and cleared his aidewalks of weeds. Recent Real Estate R. Hansen to John Q. R. Hansen to L.

Anahheim's Latest Great Auction Sale. The auction sale of the Santa Fe tract, upon which the new depot is to be located, took place yesterday. The attendance was large and the result satisfactory. A special excursion train arrived about 10:30 o'clock A.M., bringing some five hundred people. The city street cars being wholly inadequate to meet the demands of the occasion, the depot was surrounded by a cordon of carriages, buggies, wagons, carry-alls, etc., provided by generous citizens for the accommodation of the excursionists, but so great was the number that street cars and private conveyances were obliged to return for those who were unable to find means to reach the scene of the sale with the advance guard. A plentiful lunch was spread at the pavilion on Center street. The lunch was substantial, garnished with fruit, flowers and wine, and served by a bevy of Anahheim's beautiful daughters, while a Los Angeles brass band discoursed delicious music. THE VENDUE. Shortly after the noon hour the people gathered around the auction stand. The sale was opened with a few prefatory remarks by Prof. Wiesendanger, who referred to the natural advantages of Anahheim, its wonderful fertility, its boundless abundance of water, and to the fact that the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad Company, one of the strongest and most enterprising corporations in America, had selected Anahheim as a location. Mr. Wiesendanger concluded by saying that Anahheim was about to experience a boom such as had not yet been seen in Southern California; a boom that would ignite even those who were usually enabled to foretell the future of a place by the signs of the times. H. H. Matlock then raised his voice and hammer and the business of the day commenced. The first lot, a corner fronting on Center street (city R. R.) and the new depot site, was bid for at a lively rate and finally fell to Julius Houser, a Los Angeles man, for $650. THE PURCHASERS, Following is a list of late sold prices: FUN AT THE LANDING. GLASSHALLS AND BOATMACING. Gamppg. Drinking, Swimming and Stingray. Last Sunday was a whale of a day at the Landing. More than one hundred teams were hitched up roundabout Commodore Davis' hayrick, the storehouse, cottages and tents; while flocks of gamins, of both sexes, floundered in the water-like young ducks or rolled in the sand like sportive colts. There were people from Downey, Norwalk, Santa Ana, Westminster and other localities, but the bulk of the multitude were from the lively burg of Anahheim. Careful estimates agreed that about five hundred men, women, girls, boys, children and babes were present. The variableness of human nature was as fairly presented and could have been as judiciously studied as it might have been at Santa Cruz, Long Branch or Newport. The gossip gathered in groups, dissected and discussed the moral and social fabric of their neighbors and blamed or pitied their idiosyncracies. The 'lovelorn,' in pairs, wandered alar off, and in awkward silence listened to the sad, sad song of the ocean, or, abstractedly, called each other's attention to the loneliness of some squirting clam left high and dry by the receding tide. Rustic sports talked horse talk, speculated on the coming boatrace and bet sundry "beers" on the result. The younger matrons reclined on piles of sweet smelling alfalfa and chatted of babies and husbands, bonnets and ribbons, benevolence and biscuit, preachers and yellow-legged chickens. The elders seemed to take sparingly to the water. They contented themselves strolling along the shelving and beautiful beach or meandering over bush-broweds and dunes. The convivially disposed haw, haw'd! with the Commodore and hit his beer barrels with a gusto rarely outdone at Baden or Berlin. The gaming spirit was also to the fore and a friendly and social game of poker was in process during the day. The stomach, too, asserted itself; and Mrs. Roberts Religious and FraternalA mission has been in progress at the Catholic church of St. Boniface, Second North street, during the week. The mission was held under the auspices of the itinerant order O. P., and was conducted by the Rev. Father Newell. There was preaching morning and evening and instruction for children every afternoon. Father Newell is an energetic and zealous priest; and an eloquent and interesting speaker. CHOSEN FRIENDS.-Magnolia Lodge, No. 94, Order of Chosen Friends, met last Saturday evening when the following recently elected officers were installed: Past Councilor, A. Rimpan; Councilor, F. C. Smythe; Vice-Councilor, F. C. Rimpan; Prelate, Mrs. F. Mossman; Secretary, E. A. White; Treasurer, Theo. Rimpan; Marshal, A. L. Lewis; Warden, Wm. M. McFadden; Guard; Gus. Davis; Sentry, S. J. McFadden; Trustees, Theo. Rimpan, Wm. M. McFadden, W. M. Higgins. District Deputy Wm. M. McFadden was the installing officer. ODD FELLOWS.-Anaheim Lodge, No. 199, L. O. O. F., installed the following officers at the regular meeting Tuesday evening: Oliver Hill, N. G.; J. H. Bullard, V. G.; W. R. Harker, S.; J. P. Zeyn, T.; Wm. McClintock, W.; Wm. Hill, I. G. Deputy Grand Master E. Champlin was the installing officer. ODD FELLOWS.-Orpheus Lodge, I. O. O. P., met on the 8th and initiated three new members. The officers of Invincible Parlor, No. 74 Native Sons of the Golden West, were installed last night by District Deputy H.C.Katz of Los Angeles. Depot ItemsThere was a notable increase of furniture and household material generally in the sum of last week's railroad imports. The daily express shipment of choice fresh fish from the Landing to Los Angeles is somewhat on the increase. A fish-monger might find one profitable day in each week in Anaheim. Within the past two weeks R.H.Gilman has forwarded three carloads of lemons and three of wine. Recent Real Estate Transactions R. Hansen to John Quinn—10 acres; $2500. R. Hansen to L. Martin—10 acres; $2500 The above sales were made by Kellogg Brothers. Jacob Yaeger to Wm. F. Foos—Lot 6, blk of babies and husbands, bonnets and ribbons, benevolence and biscuit, preachers and yellow-legged chickens. The elder seemed to take sparingly to the water. They contented themselves strolling along the shelving and beautiful beach or meandering over bush-browed sand-dunes. The convivially disposed haw, haw'd with the Commodore and hit his beer barrels with a gusto rarely outdone at Baden or Berlin. The gaming spirit was also to the fore and a friendly and social game of poker in process during the day. The stomach, too, asserted itself; and Mrs. Roberts was kept quite busy satisfying the fishy voraciousness of the landlubbers who, as the cat cried out to the oyster, were constantly gasping: "Fish, mum," "Mo' fish!" THE BOAT RACE The glass ball shooting was not much of a success; it failed to attract the same attention as did the boatrace. The race was unique in its way. It was a contest between two fishermen and two amateur Anaheim oarsmen, and the crafts used were common fishing surf boats. The amateurs were G. Landell and L. Hickox and the fishermen, Harry Reisback and Hugo Weisler. The race was for a purse of $20; distance, one-half mile and return. Won by the fishermen. The Anaheim boys, however, gave the old salts a tough rub of it. MUSIC AND THE NASTY STINGRAY. The Norwegian brass band remained all day and enlivened the occasion with sweet strains of music. So sweet and moving, in fact, that a slightly altitudinated Rheinlander insisted on waltzing with the old flagpole that somebody planted in the sand some years gone by. The pole was sober, however, and wouldn't or couldn't waltz. While bathing, Miss —— of Norwalk was stung by a stingray. The young lady was frightened, of course, and quite painfully hurt. She was attended to by her lady friends and soon recovered sufficient to pronounce upon her tormentor the awful sentence: "Nasty stingray!" NOTES. The day passed pleasantly. No drunkenness, no quarrelling. We saw many people and we, quite a stranger as we are, were unable to name the many persons of note who were present. There is some talk of a motor road to our watering place and a joint stock company hotel. A Pair of Henglish Haristoorts A couple of toplofty English gentlemen visited the Landing on the Fourth o' July. They patronized, liberally, the bar over which presides the rugged, outspoken Commodore Davis. The gentlemen from England drank deeply—in fact, to quote the Commodore, they drank till they thought they owned the "hul kentry." The gentlemen grew loud and lofty, and as they waxed aristocratic and imperious, the Commodore's of babies and husbands, bonnets and ribbons, benevolence and biscuit, preachers and yellow-legged chickons.

Bauer has been bought by Mr. McFarland of Los Angeles for $5000. The Modjeska 35 acres in Anaheim Extension has been bought by Messrs. Fanning and Hamilton of the County Clark's office.

Shanklin, lots 11 and 12; Ey & Groat, lot 8. A Pair of Henglish Haristoorata A couple of toplofty English gentlemen visited the Landing on the Fourth o' July. They patronized, liberally, the bar over which presides the rugged, outspoken Commodore Davis. The gentlemen from England drank deeply—in fact, to quote the Commodore, they drank till they thought they owned the "hul kentry." The gentlemen grew loud and lofty, and as they waxed aristocratic and imperious, the Commodore's democracy waxed warm and wroth. Suddenly—with a Dundreary smirk and a majestic wave of his lordly arm—the elder of the twain roared out in commanding tones, (addressing the Commodore) "Waitah! waitah! bring me a glass-hof watah, sah!" As the fur on a cat's tail stands straight out when a yaller dog suddenly appears, the Britisher's command and manner as suddenly roussed and riled the Commodore's independent spirit. Straightening himself straight as a flagpole, and glaring at the man from over the water, the Commodore roared back: "Say—mistah! will you please go to h-1, sah!" In high dudgeon the gentlemen picked themselves up and departed, declaring that they couldn't "understand the blarsted ways hof the Hamerican lower herders." Singular and Painful Accident A painful and very singular accident recently occurred to Mr. Gainsa who resides with Mr. H. Carlisle, of Westminster. He had just returned from a drive, and was in the act of unharnessing his horse, when the hitch-rein snap caught the forepart of his right hand forefinger. As Mr. Gainsa turned to release himself the horse suddenly bounded forward and the finger was literally wrenched or torn from the socket at the middle joint. Doctor Bullard was immediately summoned and found the first two joints of the mutilated member hanging by shreds and tandems. Amputation was necessary which operation the Doctor performed.
