Smith, heretofore proprietor of the City Meat Market, Center street, has sold out to W. W. Manter. We wish the new proprietor success. OIL-BURN BRICK:—Keith & Hendricks have placed on exhibition a fine sample of oil-burnt brick. Crude oil was used in burning the kiln from which the brick was taken. SUN-DRIED APRICOTS:—We have been shown some samples of sun-dried apricots. The fruit is perfectly dried, as perfectly as it could possibly have been by a dryer or evaporator. DOWNING THE CYPRESS:—The beautiful cypress hedge on Mr. Kroeger's place, corner of Orange and Center streets, is being removed to make way for substantial improvements. SALVAGE CHARGED:—On Thursday evening of last week Ramon Romero's horse took fright and ran down Center street. The runaway was stopped by a frugal individual who charged Mr. Romero 25 cents by way of salvage. NEW USE FOR FERTILIZERS:—Last week the Gazette growled about the holes and ruts with which Center street was pock-marked from the Anaheim bakery to the Southern Pacific depot and the growl has moved some one to fill up the holes and ruts with stable and barnyard manure. A FORTUNATE Escape:—Last week while NEW USE FOR FERTILIZERS.—Last week the Gazette growled about the holes and ruts with which Center street was pock-marked from the Anaheim bakery to the Southern Pacific depot and the growl has moved some one to fill up the holes and ruts with stable and barnyard manure. A Fortunate Escape.—Last week while Mr. and Mrs. Keith were driving to the landing their horse stumbled and fell and Mrs. Keith was thrown violently to the ground. Though the lady was severely bruised we are glad to learn that she escaped, very fortunately, any serious injury. ATTENTION! MALVERN HILL:—The Grand Army of Southern California will meet in convention in the city of Los Angeles at 10 A.M. August 3d. Every Post is expected to send delegates. It is to be hoped that the members of Malvern Hill Post will be more numerously familiar in answering roll call in the immediate future than they have been in the immediate past. BUSY BRICKMAKER:—The brick yard of Charles Schindler a few hundred yards west of the railroad depot presents a busy scene at present. A force of men are at work making bricks and building a new kiln. A kiln was recently burned, and a heavy demand is now being made upon it to supply the material needed for Anaheim's building boom. MAGNIFICENT PEACHES:—This office is indebted to the kindness and forethought of Mr. B. F. Porter of Orangethorpe for a great big sample of the finest strawberry peaches which it has ever been our fortune to see, taste and devour. The peaches were grown on Mr. Porter's ranch, and speak volumes for the capacity of it and Mr. P.'s skill as an horticulturist. Hoping to see you often, Mr. Porter, accept our sincere thanks. WHOA EMMA!—Last Saturday morning while Fang Chuck Yuek, a slit-eyed child of Bing Gam Bo, was delivering vegetables at the kitchen door of a citizen's residence, his horse meandered away and hobbled out Lemon street. The nag is a bony relic of the Confucian era, as staid and methodical as his master, and all would have been well if some rascally boys had not commenced pelting the beast, shouting in the meantime, "Whoa Emma! Whoa Emma!" The animal wouldn't whoea, but on the contrary got up on his hind legs and dusted in a manner never to be expected from the lean appearance of his protruding ribs and rusty shanks. He is still going. If nothing has happened he is now at San Diego. Recent Real Estate Transactions. Lots 11 and 12, blk 2, Santa Fe tract, Anaheim—Weisendanger & Bonsall of Los Anus, in the end, a caravansary costing not less than $75,000 and perhaps approximating $100,000. Mr. Witte and a few other gentlemen thought it best to raise $50,000 outright, and that a joint-stock company should own, manage and run the hotel. The majority, however, deemed this method of hotel management unwieldy if not uncertain. It was then decided to organize a hotel company to be composed of not less than twenty citizens; said company to incorporate for the purpose of guaranteeing 8 per cent. per annum net on the expenditure of $50,000 or more in completing hotel grounds and in erecting a hotel building thereon within the limits of the town of Anaheim. The details of the hotel building and the town location to be hereafter agreed upon between the company and the capitalist or capitalists who accepts their munificent offer. On motion of Mr. Littlefield, amended by Mr. Ennis, it was resolved that an instrument be drafted embodying the above points and that signatures to said instrument be solicited: On motion of Mr. Witte, Chairman Rimpau was empowered to have such instrument drafted, and the Chair appointed Mr. G. D. Field to perform the required labor. Mr. Ennis moved that a committee of five be appointed by the Chair to solicit signatures. Carried. The Chair appointed Henry Kroeger, Shaldon Littlefield, Frederico Smythe, C. L. Eunis and Adolph Rimpau, the Chairman, Mr. Theodore Rimpau, being ex-officio member of the committee. The meeting then adjourned to reassemble at 3 o'clock P.M., Tuesday. TUESDAY'S MEETING. At 3 o'clock on Tuesday the adjourned meeting assembled at Kroeger's hall and was called to order by Chairman Rimpau. On behalf of the committee appointed to solicit signatures to an agreement providing for a guarantee of 8 per cent per annum net to any person or persons who would invest $50,000 in a hotel building within the limits of the town of Anaheim, Mr. Rimpau stated that no difficulty was found in obtaining the necessary signatures and that the paper now contained 23 names. "I now think" concluded Mr. Rimpau, "that the condition of affairs warrants us in proceeding to the extent of forming a permanent organization." Acting upon this suggestion, Messrs. Rimpau, Littlefield and Ennis were placed in nomination for the position of permanent Chairman. Messrs. Rimpau and Littlefield asked permission to withdraw,and Mr. Ennis was unanimously chosen. G. D. Field was chosen permanent Secretary. The meeting was now formally opened and a lengthy pro and con discussion ensued. Mr. Hendricks wanted a committee appointed to fix a site for the proposed hotel. Mr. Davis thought it should be centrally located—"not near any depot." Mr. Littlefield thought that any talk of "location" was just now premature. Mr. Witte said: "We propose to guarantee some capitalist a certain net per cent per annum to induce him to venture a play hub with G. herring. He will so he best swimmer at same.

The meeting was now formally opened and a lengthy pro and con discussion ensued. Mr. Hendricks wanted a committee appointed to fix a site for the proposed hotel. Mr. Davis thought it should be centrally located—"not near any depot." Mr. Littlefield thought that any talk of "location" was just now premature. Mr. Witte said: "We propose to guarantee some capitalist a certain net per cent, per annum to induce him to venture a certain sum of money in a business venture in Anaheim. Our business is to secure that venture; all other parts of the business belong to the men or man who furnish the capital. In this case I do not think it proper to attempt to dictate to the capitalist." Mr. Witte also suggested a change in the phraseology of the guarantee paper which was agreed to. Mr. Luedke: "The first and main thing to be considered is the securing of $50,000 or more, with a satisfactory guarantee to offer in addition to the inherent business advantages of Anaheim." JOINT STOCK MOVEMENT. Mr. Langenberger: "Can we not form an association and raise $50,000 here among ourselves and thus insure this project? Let the guarantee stand—advertise our offer—if capital comes all is well, If not, let us make ready to be ready. Let us form an association and issue stock. Moved, by Mr. Davis: "That a committee of three be appointed to solicit subscriptions to stock; said stock to consist of $50 shares at $100 each. Five per cent, of all stock to be paid upon issuance of same." Carried. Committee: Sheldon Littlefield, Theo Rimpau and Henry Kroeger. Seventy-five hundred dollars was subscribed in a few moments by those in the hall. THE GUARANTEE AND SIGNERS.

Mason, of any other person or persons, will forthwith construct a hotel building in Anaheim, Cal., at a cost of $50,000, and keep or cause to be kept a hotel therein for five years from the first day of November next, then we collectively will guarantee for said five years to such person or persons a net income which shall amount to the sum of eight per cent per annum of the total cost of such hotel building. And we do hereby agree with said F. L.

Mrs. Landell and family are at the Landing for the season. Col. Keith and wife are very comfortably fixed at the seaside. The Col understands the full value of comfort. H. S. Knapp and wife are luxuriating in a large block-shaped tent. Geo. Amerige and Alex. Davis seem to enjoy themselves hugely. At all events they enjoy watermelons hugely. Especially when Lieutenant Jack Landell heaves in sight with a few choice samples for one of his best girls. The sun and the salt sea breezes are playing hob with George's alabaster complexion. He will soon resemble a Scotch herring. As for Alex, he already looks like Capt. Kidd boiled in oil. It's a treat to see the boys in the water. Dr. Pfeninger is no spring chicken, but he is the best swimmer at the Landing, all the same. As a swimmer Mrs. Scott is said to be the leading lady. The Landing now presents quite an animated appearance. Tents and cottages stretch along for a considerable distance, and the lads and lassies, maids and matrons, mashers and mules, buggies and bathers are galore. TYROLEERS! FIRST REGULAR DRILL NIGHTS—INCREASE OF MEMBERSHIP. An Immense Success. Last Monday evening the first regular meeting of Anaheim's newly organized military company was held at the company's armory, Kroeger's hall, Center street. The public attended in large numbers and manifested much interest in the success and welfare of the company. At 8 o'clock sharp the long roll was sounded and Tyroleers and their friends and admirers flocked to the armory. Captain Dorney called the meeting to order and invited all who desired to join the organization to come forward and sign the roll. Whereupon the following new recruits appended their names to the company roster: E. A. White, W. C. Eyman, A. L. Lewis, H. H. Bancroft, S. A. Dennis, L. Boldt, W. A. Hunter, Alcadia Borques, D. J. Sorensen, Jr., Otto Husmann, G. O. Heffner, Fred C. Westphal, W. M. Sproul. The roll now shows fifty-six names. The live interest manifested by the officers and members, and the general public insures a membership of at least one hundred. A given number of the company's membership will be segregated, the detail to form a company band to be known as the Tyroleer Brass Band. This idea occurred to Captain Dorney upon discovering that the company contained enough musicians, who possess their own instruments, to form a strong band corp. The Tyroleers will then be in advance of any company on the Pacific coast. None other being able to boast a company brass band. Official application for admission to the National Guard will be made this week. All honor is due Mr. Joseph Helmsen for his untiring and successful labors in recruiting the company, and we take the liberty of suggesting that the Tyroleers spread a vote of thanks upon the minutes of the company in favor of Mr. Helmsen and that he be elected an honorary member. BUSINESS MEETING. The company assembled for the transaction of business, Captain Dorney in the Chair and Sergeant Bancroft Secretary. red young and old people at the Landing last Sunday enjoying themselves in a quiet way; I have lived here six years, and never saw a more orderly class of people," writes a correspondent of our local contemporary (a Santa Ana man.) There's a nigger in the woodpile somewhere. BOOKISOH-MUEOK. Miss Sophia Mueck, the young Austrian woman who alleges that she is excluse and that she has been betrayed and abandoned by Robert Bockisch, and who has also brought suit against John Bockisch for battery, was in town yesterday. She was here by reason of an agreement made with John Bockisch, who had proposed to settle with her upon the following basis: Miss Mueck to withdraw all action at law, whereupon Bockisch was to pay her $500. Our society reporter interviewed Miss Sophia and found her to be a plump little blue-syed German-Austro lady 23 years of age. The girl tells a singular story of her life in America. It seems to have been a continuation of the vassalage to which women of the poorer classes are subjected in German, Austrian and Slavonian countries. Here, in America, she was employed by Mr. Bockisch as a swine and cowherd. She worked in the stable, fed, cleaned and bedded horses. She whitewashed the fences of Mr. Bockisch's ranch; she toiled in the vineyard, hoed weeds and packed burdens; she picked grapes, chopped wood and mowed alfalfa. Up to the hour of going to press Mr. Bockisch had not kept faith with his exslave. It is to be hoped that the Austrian colony here will display manhood enough to prevent their countrywoman's late taskmaster from escaping without doing her some little measure of justice. There are a few Americans here and should they be spurred to take the matter in hand, they might make things awkward for the Austrians booer. Death of the Man who Thrashed Denis Kearney. Thomas W. Rule was drowned at Newport on Monday while endeavoring to cross the breakers in a small rowboat. Rule was an athletic and powerful man and a good swimmer, and it is supposed that his death was caused by a blow from the woodpile somewhere. playing now with Georges alabaster complexion. He will soon resemble a Scotch herring. As for Alex, he already looks like Capt. Kidd boiled in oil. It's a treat to see the boys in the water. Dr. Pfeninger is no spring chicken, but he is the best swimmer at the Landing, all the same. As a swimmer Mrs. Scott is said to be the leading lady. The Landing now presents quite an animated appearance. Tents and cottages stretch along for a considerable distance, and the lads and lassies, maids and matrons, mashers and mules, buggies and bathers are galore. While the majority of those present last Sunday were from Anaheim, North Anaheim, Oranpethorpe, Artesia, Norwalk and Orange were well represented. All ages, sizes, sexes and shapes take dips in the briny. Ladies and children seem to prefer the breakers, while boys and men apparently find more enjoyment in diving from the wharf and swimming in deep water. Dr. Pfeninger's feat of jumping, feet first, into the sea from a tall derrick on the wharf seemed to challenge the metle of the younger sprigs of Anaheim's enivalry; and observing that the ladies applauded the Doctor's daring, the sprouting beards resolved to outdo him or—bust! So a number of lady-killing young men mounted the giddy height and plunged head-first into the briny deep. The ladies clapped their little hands, uttered little alarm cries, fluttered like little bens, exclaimed "Oh, dear" and "Oh, my," and all was well. Pfeninger was demolished. Scallops and other shell fish are found in abundance on the beach at low tide, and are eagerly sought by the campers. The old warehouse has the appearance of a huge boarding and lodging house. It is now occupied by about a dozen families. Eleven o'clock in the morning and three o'clock in the afternoon are the regular bathing hours. Lewis & Waffle, liverymen, will commence running a coach and four next Sunday morning, to continue during the season. The coach will leave Anaheim at 8 A.M. every Sunday morning. A spanking team of four will be put on and spanking time will be made. Fare, fifty cents each way. Religious and Fraternal. Prof. Nebelung's juvenile German day school is coming on finely. The school meets on Tuesdays and Fridays, two hours each day, commencing at 8 A.M. Everything is taught in the German tongue and the little folk are carefully drilled in the Lutheran catachism. On Tuesday evening of last week Santa Ana Lodge No. 82, A.O.U.W., installed the following officers: J.E Young, P.M.W.; C.MeNeill, M.W.; H.E.Smith, Foreman; Robt.Cummings, Overseer; G.E.Freeman, Recorder; J.N.Keran, Financier; L.Goepper, Receiver; J.D.Bushnell, Guide; C.E.Foreman, L.W.; J.W.Eshburn, O.W. The company assembled for the transaction of business, Captain Dorney in the Chair and Sergeant Bancroft Secretary. On motion of Lieutenant Landell the following were appointed a committee on by-laws: Lieutenant Landell, Sergeant Thomasass and Comrade E.A. White. Lieutenant Gade suggested the propriety of setting apart one night for the purpose of drilling the commissioned and non-commissioned officers, and a motion prevailed fixing Thursday night of each week as the time when such officers should assemble for skeleton drill. Upon these occasions only members of the company will be admitted to the armory. The Hall Committee reported and their report was accepted. It was resolved to elect an armorer and Judge A.V.Fox was unanimously elected to that position. On motion of Comrade S.A.Dennis company dues were fixed at 25 cents per month. Comrade A.L.Lewis was unanimously elected Treasurer. Lieutenant Gale, Sergeant Schneider and Comrade White were appointed a committee to introduce the elect. The gentlemen appeared, bowed their appreciation of the honors conferred and were heartily applauded. THE DRILL. The drilling, thus far, has been confined to the position of the soldier, facings and rudementary squad movements. Considering that last Monday's effort was but the second attempt of the company, it was surprising to note the remarkable progress made. The young men possess the proper spirit, they are active, muscular and intelligent and those capable of judging "points" prophesy that within one year Los Angeles will have to have a care for her laurels in drill and target practice. Let each member of the Tyroleers constitute himself a committee of one to drum up recruits. The company is an assured success. Building and Other Improvements A.H.Denker, of Los Angeles, well and favorably known to the people of this community, informs Mr.W.A.Witte that he proposes to erect a block of brick buildings on Los Angeles street. Mr.Denker also authorizes the Gazette to state that he will subscribe $500 to a fund to be expended in the erection of a $50,000 hotel anywhere east of Los Angeles street. Another gentleman possessed of public-spirit and means says that if the Tyroleers display the interest that should be displayed in perfecting some little measure of justice. There are a few Americans here and should they be spurred to take the matter in hand, they might make things awkward for the Austrian booer. Death of the Man who Thrashed Denis Kearney. Thomas W.Rule was drowned at Newport on Monday while endeavoring to cross the breakers in a small rowboat. Rule was an athletic and powerful man and a good swimmer, and it is supposed that his death was caused by a blow from the capsized boat. Rule will be remembered as the man who thrashed Dennis Kearney at Santa Ana a few years ago. Riverside is building a $250,000 hotel. It is to be done in January. BORN.

The San Joaquin ranch, one of the largest in the State, has been sold to a syndicate. The ranch will be cut up for settlement, and the sale will certainly eventuate in great benefit to the Santa Ana valley, of which Anaheim occupies the very choice section. The sale of the San Joaquin will rank among the very largest land transactions. The ranch comprises 100,000 acres, for which $1,380,000 was paid. Pay Your Money and Take Your Choice!
