THURSDAY... SEPTEMBER 8, 1867
SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2.
The Chicago Times of recent date says that a number of the citizens of Bloomington have organized to purchase a large tract of land in Southern California.
The serious San Francisco Bulletin, including to the application by the Supervisors of this county for a reduction of the assessments, says: "It is more fun to put up prices on Eastern investors than to pay taxes on the figures so raised, but the Los Angeles should be willing to pay for their sport."
Human nature is the same the world over—in Los Angeles as well as in Anaheim. When the meeting to vote upon the site for the half-million-dollar hotel to be built in Los Angeles decided in favor of the St. Vincent site, the Tenth and Main street advocates got "on their ear" and announced that they would build a hotel on their site anyhow.
It is said that two hotels are to be built in Anaheim.
The Los Angeles Board of Trade has sent the following telegram to the State Board of Equalization:
The Los Angeles Board of Trade, representing the mercantile interests of this city and county, and expressing the unanimous sentiment of our people, ask your honorable board, as a matter of justice and right, that the assessment of the counties of San Francisco, Alameda, Santa Clara, San Joaquin, Sacramento and others be raised to their full cash value, or that of Los Angeles county be reduced. We are assessed full value. Raise them proportionately to full value, and let our stand, or reduce our proportionately and set their stand. At our valuation, San Francisco should be from $400,000,000 to $500,000,000.
Prop. Pounddorff, a former well known correspondent of the Gazette, who has been residing in Washington, D.C., for some time, is in San Francisco. He is confident that all the wine in the State two years old and Board of Supervisors.
MONDAY, Sept. 5.
The petition of C. E. White and John E. Packard, of Pomona, to be allowed to construct a street railway, was granted. It is the intention of the projectors to construct the road over the following route: Commencing at the intersection of Second and Elizabeth streets, Pomona, and running thence along Elizabeth street to Holt avenue; thence on Holt avenue to San Antonio avenue; thence along the north line of the Rancho San Jose, near Indian Hill. The road must be commenced within two months.
The Board authorized Supervisor Venable to employ help to collect data to present to the State Board of Equalization, which meets in Sacramento on the 12th. Measures Venable and Rowan were appointed to attend the meeting of the Board and represent the county in the matter of reducing the assessment.
TUESDAY, Sept. 6.
In re School Bonds. On motion of Supervisor Venable the bonds of Vineland, Bloomfield and Albembra were awarded to Oakland Bank of Savings, and the Sepulveda bonds were awarded to Golden Rule Lodge, I.O.O.F. The Chairman and Auditor were authorized to execute said bonds.
On motion of Supervisor Martin, a warrant for $29 was ordered drawn in favor of A. Ranick, as pay for rent for July and August for Mrs. Spreckens, an indigent.
In re Washburn Crossing Bridge—Bids from the California Bridge Company and the American Bridge Company, upon plans presented by said companies, read and filed, and on motion of Supervisor Venable, plans No. 10 of the California Company were accepted. The bid for construction was $5.991. A bond of $2,000 was required for the faithful performance of the contract. The bridge is to be completed within ninety days. The chairman was authorized to sign the contract on behalf of the Board.
The report of the County Superintendent of Schools, relating to the amount of school funds needed for the year 1868 was read and filed, same to be considered at the October session.
In re Paving Main Street—Notice of assessment was received from the City Clerk, read and filed and on motion a warrant for $474.92 ordered drawn on the Court House and Jail Fund in favor of Oscar Macy, City Treasurer, to pay for paving the Main-street front of the county property.
The resignation of O. Bullis, road overseer of Compton road, was accepted and Louis Page was appointed to fill the vacancy.
The petition of the Santa Ana, Orange and Tustin Railroad for permission to use motor engines instead of horse power was granted.
Resolutions were adopted authorizing the issue of school bonds as follows: Crescenta,

SAN BERNARDIN Riggs, the only la this county, was at Wednesday morning like a little man, an she has made two has recently struck from Soda Lake to A fine flow of a struck at Cincinnati.
PROP. POINDORFF, a former well known correspondent of the GAZETTE, who has been residing in Washington, D.C., for some time, is in San Francisco. He is confident that all the wine in the State two years old and over would find a ready sale east of the Rockies. The demand is not for the cheap article, but for something that is above the average quality. Under French labels the wine sells at large prices, and the same may be true in time, when genuine labels are used. Mr. Pohendorff thinks that it is almost useless, for the present, to attempt to induce the Eastern hotel proprietors to join in a movement to popularize California wines. They prefer to sell under the French label and reap greater profits.
The Israelites of Cleveland suddenly find themselves embroiled in a bitter contention over so simple a thing as the wearing of hats in the synagogue. The Orthodox Congregation, of which Dr. Machal is the Rabbi, is about to dedicate a new temple. Dr. Hahn, the Rabbi of the Reform Congregation, was invited to participate, and accepted, but when it leaked out that he proposed to speak with uncovered head, as is his custom, his name was stricken from the programme. This fact appearing in print, Dr. Hahn made a statement, in which he asserted that the hat has no relation to the faith; that wearing it during worship is simply an Oriental custom. Some declare they will rise in the congregation and insist on his wearing his hat if he appears without it. Dr. Hahn is a man of firmness and will probably go ahead without reference to consequences.
The northern boom, according to Pixley of the Argentine, is a sham. He says:
"Every dead beat and dead-broken real estate speculator is perishing at every pore with some great speculative scheme which is first to enrich himself, and then enrich his principal by the plundering of some one beyond. We tell each other that lands have advanced; that none can be purchased at less than from four to ten hundred dollars an acre; we lie to each other about sales that never occur, about values that do not exist; we tell each other some marvellous tale of profits realized and transactions entered into, when the truth is that there is no movement of land in Marin county, not more than an occasional transaction in San Rafael and Sausalito, while at the principal place—Corte Madera—there has not an acre of land, or town lot, changed hands, except at Sheriff's sale, for the last ten years."
But it must be remembered that Pixley is shockingly unreliable, and that he has said as bad things about our southern boom, which we know to be the simon pure, genuine article.
In re Paving Main Street: Notice of assessment was received from the City Clerk, read and filed on motion a warrant for $474.92 ordered drawn on the Court House and Jail Fund in favor of Oscar Macy, City Treasurer, to pay for paving the Main-street front of the county property.
The resignation of O. Bullis, road overseer of Compton road, was accepted and Louis Page was appointed to fill the vacancy.
The petition of the Santa Ana, Orange and Tustin Railroad for permission to use motor engines instead of horse power was granted.
Resolutions were adopted authorizing the issue of school bonds as follows: Crescenta, $3500; Rosedale, $20,000; Santa Monica, $5000.
The Horticultural Commission was directed to discharge all inspectors in districts where the Morse fumigation system is not used.
The Assessor was granted leave of absence from the State for forty five days.
Los Angeles Items.
Capt. P. M. Darcy has been appointed Chief of Police, vice Skinner, resigned.
A room was entered in the Natick House on Friday and $1500 stolen.
A painter named Joe Taylor while hanging a sign on an awning 20 feet above the sidewalk fell in a hit. He struck the sidewalk with great force and died next day.
The real estate fever has reached the laides and a Woman's Investment Company has been formed with Mrs Ellen L. Baxter as President, Mrs. Bettie C. Forsyth Vice-President, Miss Mary E. Foy Secretary and Mrs. Emma C. Gordon Treasurer.
The Rural California says that people who are impressed with the idea that Los Angeles is a provincial town should remember that forty regular passenger trains arrive and depart daily from its depots, and this means a rather good sized population.
On Sunday Mrs. Brown, of 18 Mayo street, attempted suicide by taking hartshorn. Domestic infidelity. The attempt was unsuccessful.
On the same day E. J. Flintger, lately from Downs, Kansas, had aquared with his wife, and went to the Nalean House and took strychnine. He was pumped out and his life was saved. On the same day Rev. J. A. Fisher shot and killed himself. He came from Baltimore a month ago, and was a regularly ordained Baptist minister. He leaves a wife.
Hon. Stephen M. White appeared before the City Council Monday on behalf of the S. P. R. R. Co., and obtained permission for the company to put down a temporary track leading into the property where the new depot is to be located. Mr. White stated that it was the intention of the company to commence work on the new depot at once, and in order to place the material on the ground a track would be necessary. As soon as the depot is completed, it will be necessary to have permanent tracks leading from it to Alameda street, and for these a franchise will be asked.
A civil service examination will take place in a few weeks at the Postoffice to test applicants for positions in the office. An examiner will come out from Washington, who will select three from the Postoffice to assist him. The examination covers studies usually taken in a common-school course. There are no vacancies at present in the office, but when any occur they will be filled from the applicants who pass the examination.
Salaries in the different clerical posts require no later than "the babies," than your space will receive it for the prescience "weight for age" claim precedence.

The application of Chas. A. Wetmore, the well-known viticulturist, for a franchise for a wharf at Coronado Beach, has provoked a wild opposition among the property owners there, ostensibly because it is alleged he proposes to sell liquors on the wharf, in violation of the wishes of the people. Wetmore is on the warpath, however, and proposes to make a lively fight. He has published in the San Diego papers the following preliminary warwhoop:
A grand mass meeting of property owners and citizens of Coronado Beach and San Diego will be called this week, due notice to be given hereafter, to take action against the proposed violation of contract on the part of the Coronado Beach Company. Property owners who wish to see justice done, and to prevent the destruction of property values through the proposed saloon and wine-drinking in the Coronado Hotel, will all be invited to attend. I do not and have not desired to conduct a saloon on my proposed wharf, and I will agree to pay $250 to any person who can by respectable deposition, under oath, demonstrate the truth of the statement circulated by hirelings of the company and adopted by a mass meeting at the Beach, that I have had any such intention as is imputed to me. More than this, I have written to the Supervisors that I am willing to accept the franchise with the proviso that no intoxicating liquors shall be sold on the wharf, and still more I intend to be the first subscriber to a fund to employ counsel to prevent the company from violating their implied contract with lot purchasers, and will subscribe $500 toward all expenses, inviting all good citizens to unite with me in this effort to preserve property against the wishes of mercenary hypocrites.
Cause and Effect
Riverside Press
The lack of system in the distribution of water in Riverside is surprising to people who have been accustomed to a complete system in other irrigated districts. Orders are to day twelve days behind time—a state of affairs worse than the year under the old management, when section time was extended to forty days. No settlement in Southern California has so much friction in irrigation matters as Riverside has to-day under the management of the present Superintendent.
Because the Press, working in the interest of the people, saw fit mildly to criticise the work of the water superintendent that official withdraws the Water Company's advertisement from this paper and stops his own subscription. If the company needed the advertisement, why should it be withdrawn? If it did not need it, why was it put in? However, $2.50 a month deducted from $2500 won't stop the Press.
Horrible Story of Cannibalism
Information comes from Honolulu, by the steamer Alameda, that on one of the outlying islands of the Sandwich group there lately occurred a massacre of three boatmen, belonging to the schooner Mary Anderson, under exceptionally brutal circumstances. The boatmen were first severely wounded, to render them helpless, and tied hands and feet, and taken in canoes over to another island and sold for pigs. The purchasers then finished them and had a cannibal feast on the bodies.
OUR NEAR NEIGHBORS.
CENTRALIA;—Correspondence of the Gazette. There is no ripple of excitement this week, the very horses being so satisfied with their pleasant lines, which have been cast in Centralia, refusing to give me a runaway, an accident or an incident to record.
Still, there are some topics on which to expatiate, the loftiest of which is the big hay stack of J. L. Howen, and which might serve Capt. Lawson for a signal station during his next survey of our country hereabouts.
Another institution deserving more than a passing notice is the breeding farm of Capt. A. S. Ferguson. He has recently enclosed his ranch with a good fence, and added twenty-one brood mares and two or three mules to his stock. He also has his tug stallion "Centralia." The Capt. is now absent with his family in San Francisco, but "Pancho," who does the honors in his stead, thinks that before the ranch is completely cut up by the coming railroad he will be able to show as nine colts as one would wish to look at.
Mr. Redlich tells me he sells his fruit and grapes at Long Beach very readily, his Malvoise going quickly at 3 cents per lb. This is much better than waiting on the wine-maker at $10 per ton, as he did last season.
Mr. Hickox and his son Lory have both sold all their hay for speculation.
The hay balers have finished on Mr. Landell's farm and now seeking the pleasant pastures of Norwalk.
Mrs. Hughes and Mrs. Butler have returned from their sojourn at Santa Monica, the former lady being seriously indisposed with bronchitis, but thanks to the skill and constant attention of Dr. Ballard, is rapidly meninging.
I find there are several products of Centralia requiring notice, one of them, particularly "the babies," requiring an elaboration that your space will not now admit of. Suffice it for the present, however, that in a "weight for age" contest I believe we can claim precedence.
SAN BERNARDINO—Times:—Mrs. Frank Riggs, the only lady mining projector in this county, was at the St. Charles Hotel Wednesday morning. She takes her pick like a little man, and in the past ten years she has made two or three fortunes. She has recently struck it rich again, and is here from Soda Lake to work up a sale.
A fine flow of artesian water has been struck at Cucamonga at a depth of 220 feet.
COAST CULLINGS.
A fire at Calico wiped out the town, only three lodging houses remaining intact.
Col. A. B. Hotchkiss of Colton is authority for the statement that rails for 300 miles of road have arrived for the Southern Pacific, and that these rails will be used as feeders in various parts of Southern California.
The California Central R. R. Company are building bridges in all directions. Last week there arrived at the depot between twenty and thirty carloads of timber to be used in building bridges across Warm Creek in this city and at other points on the line of their roads.
A petition has been filed in the General Land Office by citizens of White Pine county, Nev., asking the intervention of the land department to protect settlers against the unlawful appropriation of public lands by foreign sheepraiders. The petitioners allege that there are several companies of Englishmen, mostly aliens, having large flocks of sheep, which travel from water to water, destroying the grass and contaminating the water used by settlers for domestic purposes.
Acting Commissioner Stocklager has directed that an investigation of the matter be made by a special agent of the General Land Office.
At Petaluma on Saturday a distressing event occurred, by which a little boy lost his sight. It seems that two boys, named Lowe and Costello, respectively, were playing on the streets. The Costello boy wanted the other to go uptown, but met with a refusal. Saying that he would be revenged, Costillo left, but soon returned with a small package in his hand, and while Lowe was in the act of stooping, set fire to the package and threw it into his face. An explosion followed, and the little fellow struggled back, screaming that he was blind. A doctor was sent for, and upon careful examination pronounced the sight entirely destroyed. The act seems to have been premeditated, showing utter deprivacy on the part of Costello.

NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
SAN BERNARDINO—Times: Mrs. Frank Riggs, the only lady mining projector in this county, was at the St. Charles Hotel Wednesday morning. She takes her pick like a little man, and in the past ten years she has made two or three fortunes. She has recently struck it rich again, and is here from Soda Lake to work up a sale.
A fine flow of artesian water has been struck at Cucamonga at a depth of 220 feet. As this is the first successive attempt at boring for artesian water between San Bernardino and Cucamonga, it will no doubt add great inducements to that section of the county, and assist largely in helping the boom of that already rapidly growing settlement.
SANTA MONICA—Outlook: By the first of January Santa Monica will be the terminus of three railroads. We are creditably informed that the Ballona road will be continued to South Santa Monica at an early day. Work on the footpath road is now in progress, and a gentleman, who is connected with the enterprise, says that line will surely reach the seaside by the close of the year.
L. T. Fisher, editor of the Outlook, was married on last Thursday to Mrs. E. Hartman. Fisher is an old time friend of the editor of the Gazette, and we heartily wish him a full measure of happiness.
PASADENA; To stimulate the railroad in furnishing Pasadena with a depot, we hear that a public spirited citizen has offered the California Central people $5000 cash if they will add $5000 to it, and begin the erection of the depot within thirty days.
The jury in the case of the Altadena Railway vs. James Smith returned a verdict of $15,000 damages for crossing 600 feet of his land in Pasadena.
TIMES: The quail law, as it is called, was out yesterday, and now the owners of vineyards and orchards are at liberty to kill the pests and pay hunters to help them get rid of them. In several instances that the reporter can mention, the vineyard men are offering to furnish the ammunition for people who can shoot well to clean the birds out. It is about time the law was suspended until the enforcement of it is necessary.
At present the quail are so thick in this valley that one eighth of the grape and small fruit crop has been destroyed by them.
A Theatre Fire
LONDON, Sept. 5. The theatre at Exeter took fire this evening during the performance of the Romany Rye. The occupants of the pit, after an awful struggle, escaped, but many of them were greatly injured. There was only one exit from the gallery and the crush there was terrific. Scores were trodden under foot and suffocated. A fire escape was brought to the window and many inside were rescued.
When the fire started a drop scene was lowered to prevent a draught. Some of the actors opened the door to escape, causing the fire to burst through the drop scene and to ignite the gallery. The hanes overtook the people who were wedged into an imminent traina requiring notice, one of them, particularly "the babies," requiring an elaboration that your space will not now admit of. Sufficice it for the present, however, that in a "weight for age" contest I believe we can claim precedence.

The occupants of the dress circle escaped without serious harm.
London, Sept 6.—Morning—Up to the present time 130 bodies have been recovered. They are almost unrecognizable. Thirty injured survivors have been taken to the hospital. The fire burned throughout the night. The search for the bodies proceeds slowly. In many cases every shred of clothing is burned off and the bodies look black and raw.
