SANTAFEGRADERS About One Hundred Men at Work Two Gangs at Work and Graffiting Impunity. Orange Street Tern Lp and Graffited to Sycamore Street. Grading on the Ashmon, Topka and Santa Fe Railroad is now fairly under way, and so soon as the entire force of graders shall have arrived the road will progress at the rate of about a mile a day. Grading is comparatively easy over the new line, to difficult pieces of work having to be accounted upon the entire Chicago heliy. The road proceeds out Orange street and something over a mile out of it makes a turn to the west, passing immediately through Fullerton; running twenty to Dana Park, Santa Fe Springs, and by the old Corvette House. The road connects with the San Bernardo and San Diego lines about halfway between Orange and St. James, and runs thence across the Santa Ana river to the south limits of town, entering at the south end of Orange street, which it traverses its entire length, and which street has been abandoned by the town authorities to the use of the railroad. The road then passes to Fullerton, Pueblo Park, and Santa Fe Springs. The road runs immediately by the old Coyote House and along the mean until it reaches the Springs. It then passes north of the well known General Sanford ranch, crossing the two branches of the San Gabriel river north of the Sanford bridge and the wagon road to Los Angeles, and after crossing the Old river heads through the Laguna ranch to the Los Angeles river near the south limits of the city. At present there are thirty or forty teams at work in both gangs, about one hundred observers, to listen to and study the most published orchestras of Germany, in that any event ever so complicated orchestra piece of music is like an open book to me. The grand modern orchestra is generally composed out of the three instrumental materials—the string, wood and brass instruments. The combinations, to obtain a certain affect with these instruments, are prominent. The instruments are for the composer of music what the colors are for the artist, but the unique blending of Renzel's organ with the cello and the other string instruments was very taking and I cannot see how all this, united with an absolute manorship technically cannot but substitute the known so pretty due to Renzel's orchestra. To work with a great variety of instruments to obtain a certain effect, for instance in a modern orchestra which is composed of four concerts, four trumpets and three horns, is not so very difficult, but Mr. Renzel understands to reach much with little effort. The ingeniously arranged melody which accompanied the beautiful melody "Bee Dangere" compared by Strauss, the king of waltzes, and other pieces, and the Hungarian national instrument, served to help in the pleasing effect of Mr. Renzel's orchestra. I was sorry that on account of the complexity of all brass instruments in Mr. Renzel's orchestra, it was not possible to present to the music friends of Anaheim one of my orchestra compilations, previously arranged for a full orchestra and approved by the leading orchestras of Germany—such as Leading Orchestra in Berlin, the Bruckner and Walter Grand Military orchestras of Leningrad, the Beck orchestra of Hanover, and the orchestra of the reigning prince of San Bernardino—as it ought to have been rendered. Furthermore, I did not know in time that Mr. Renzel's orchestra would include one of my compositions in their program for that evening. And I did not know the popular organization of Mr. Renzel's orchestra, or I would have tried to substitute the missing brass instruments by an accompaniment on the organ, and for the same reason I was obliged to alter six other of my compositions and arrange them for piano and organ accompaniment to enable Mr. Renzel to render them at his future concerts in the east. Mr. Renzel's orchestra will long be remembered by all who had good fortune to listen to their masterly performance, and we will hope that we will enjoy a similar musical treat before long. F. Sennertz, Composer. PROTOCLEA. "Horse" Off on a Vacation "Vulean's" Interisting Letter. Since the hurried departure of our Mayor for Salt River (who, by the bye), thinks he has an immediate California raise in the near future; items worth relating are very scarce. However, Pasantia moves along as usual, with glittering hopes for that which is so come presently. The Seven Lapalus A NEW RAILROAD Projected Road from Anaheim to the Ocean. Touching at Garden Grove and Westminster. A John Mack Company to be Organized and Prolific in Town to Arrange Without Delay. Some of the wealthy and enterprising citizens of Anaheim have about completed the preliminary arrangements for a horse railroad from Anaheim to the Landling. The road will touch at Garden Grove and Westminster and continuing to the ocean, strike a harbor at or near the old Anaheim Landing. The road will have a commensurable impact in town, and in all probability extend on Placentia and the country thereabout. Estimates made by the Civil Engineer of the Santa Fe road while at Anaheim some few days ago place the probable cost of a road from Anaheim to the ocean at about $75,000, and the extra cost of a line to Placentia, Fullerton, etc., at $25,000, a total of $100,000 in all. Several prominent men of Anaheim have signified their willingness to lend financial aid to the proposed road, and with their assistance there is no doubt that the enterprise will be speedily pushed to completion. Mr. Henry Kroeger, a gentleman who has been identified with the progress and prosperity of Anaheim probably as much as any other resident, is an enthusiastic believer in the feasibility of the undertaking, and stands ready to back the enterprise with substantial aid. Mr. Kroeger is one of our most substantial and enterprising citizens and the very fact that he is one of the principle movers in the new railroad is evidence that the enterprise will be pushed for all there is in it. Mr. Thuo Rimpan is also one of Ana- The road runs immediately by the old Coyote House and along the meadow until it reaches the Springs. It then passes north of the well known General Sanford ranch, crossing the two branches of the San Gabriel river north of the Sanford bridge and the wagon road to Los Angeles, and after crossing the Old river heads through the Laguna ranch to the Los Angeles river near the south limits of the city. At present there are thirty or forty teams at work in both gangs, about one hundred men being kept busy at work. At the mouth and end of Orange street the road has been pushed out about half a mile, the grad is aiming to intercept the road already constructed between Anaheim and Fallerton, this second gang are grading toward the latter place. The function of the two divisions of the roadbed will be made in a couple of days, and these a force of men will labor in the vicinity of Fallerton, where a camp has already been struck. By this time it is expected several hundred more workers will arrive from the brazen road at Oceanade, San Diego county, which is now about completed. Several gangs of workmen will be retained at the later stage for some few weeks yet but no one man can spare will report at Anaheim immediately. Anaheim as this gang of grinders arrive into with the aid of other graders one at Anaheim from various other points where the Santa Fe road has its army of workmen engaged, it is expected that the road will be pushed at the rate over a minute day, and the entire road constructed into Los Angeles by the end of the year. One gang of workmen are encamped on Orange street near North, the other camp being struck at Fallerton. As visit to the camps yesterday morning soared an unusual battle and activity on the line, many citizens being ready to immediately put at work more teams and men. This will be done as soon as the preliminary grading shall have been completed. The road is being substantially contracted, being pushed rapidly, and as soon as the other contingents of graders now due have shall have arrived the road will have an army of workmen at and near Anaheim larger than any number of railroad builders ever in the southern part of the State. It has become the proper career for our people to visit the scene of operations, and yesterday throngs of people visited the scene, there being probably more railroad inspectors at the new roadbed than during any previous day. Everyone is land in their praises of the future of our town, and once the sars run into Anaheim by the Atchison route, we predict that even yesterday's enthusiasts will themselves be surprised at the advancement which will be the lot of the Springs. PROT PLACENTIA. "Borne" Off a Vacation "Vulcan's Interrupting Letter. Since the burned departure of our Mayor for Salt river (who, by the bye, thinks he sees an immediate California raise in the near future) items worth relating are very scarce. However, Placentia moves along usual, with glittering hopes for that which is to come presently. The San Francisco Fruit Company have almost gathered all of their waltzes for this year, and the crop is a fine one about two or three which at nine cents per pound will give the owner a little interest of $3.00. And this is no exaggerated statement; the writer knows another party in Placentia who gathered from 1920 trees planted in hard form 1920 people will witness at the same figure will give about $1.000. We claim for Placentia that she possesses the best location and the best soil in Los Angeles county, and if our manner grows that year has not been ruined of their well earned lands by having their fruit branded Santa Ana Valley instead of Placentia, buyers would have before now been at our office grown contracting for the new crop, which is a very promising one for quality. Placentia also possesses several very valuable water powers which in the near future will be readily sought after, and the writer learns from the minutes of the Secretary of the Anaconda County Water Company that a party have already made application for one of those powers for a term of two-five years, and he treats the Water Company will extremely liberal in their terms with the contracting parties. THE BUND BOA OF PRINCE "Chris" Buckley's Interesting Career Since her birth New York is your land. The annual movement was recently made that Chris Buckley, the blind boss of California, has returned from a trip to Europe. There he went to have a consultation with his householder, and has accepted that he can never remain his sight. He was prepared to pay $50,020 to any of the commentators of Europe who would even give him hope that he might ultimately recover his sight, but the case is said to be hopeless. Buckley is one of the peculiar products of Pacific Coast politics and has had an extraordinary career. He has been for years a leader of the San Francisco Democracy, and is now Chairman of the Democratic State Central Committee. He has progressed from the position of a small saloon keeper and a ward striker to that of a manager of the great political machine, and has accomplished all this while being practically blind. There are few instances of such political achievements in the lower ranks of politics. Mr Buckley was born in Ireland, but his parents removed to this country when he was quite young, and he lived through his boyhood and youth in New York. His father was a contractor. Young Buckley, who is now 43, removed from New York to the Pacific coast in 1860, when he was 18 years of age. He commenced life as a street car driver, and devoted all the spare time he had to ward politics. He early developed an aptitude for ward politics, and soon became the rival of "Al Fritz," the local Democrat boss. The two centers entered into a political partnership and opened a saloon, which became Democratic headquarters. Their first movement in direction of successful politics was to reduce the price of whisky from 25 cents to 12 cents a glass. They became popular, and been identified with the progress and prosperity of Anaheim probably as much as any other resident, is an enthusiastic believer in the feasibility of the undertaking, and stands ready to back the enterprise with substantial aid. Mr Kroeger is one of our most substantial and enterprising citizens and the very fact that he is one of the principle movers in the new railroad is evidence that the enterprise will be pushed for all there is in it. Mr Theo Rumpan is also one of Anaheim's prominent citizens and is willing to aid the project financially. The gentleman is wealthy and enterprising and if he has anything to do with the new road it will be sure to be completed at the earliest possible moment. Mrsara A. Littlefield, Rumpan Bro., A. Goldthwaite, and Theo Rumpan are also gentlemen of means and enterprise, and are enthusiastic over the proposed road. We are informed on reliable authority that Los Angeles capitalists stand ready to aid the undertaking, and that a large and elegant hotel will be built at the terminus of the road. Several other of our substantial citizens are favorably impressed with the undertaking, and all stand ready to aid the projected road to the fullest extent. The benefit that would necessarily accrue to Anaheim through the building of this new road is almost inscalculable. Situated as the town is in the center of the finest valley in California, it would command the trade of the entire section. Placentia people could ride into Anaheim, make their purchases and reach home again in short order, and people from Westminster and Garden Grove could avail themselves of the opportunity to ride into town in palatial cars. All the produce of the entire valley would necessarily center in Anaheim, and the town would be the distributing point for the entire section. A joint stock company will probably be organized, when everybody who has interest of the community at heart will be given a chance to talk to the extent of his ability. Wide awake men have the matter well in hand and as they undoubtedly mean business the road ought to be well under way in a few weeks time. We hope to be able to give fuller particulars in our next issue. What is Being Said. That N. H. Mitchell discovered four and a half feet of land on Center street last week. Like a good citizen he himself-hately gave orders for the erection of a house thereon. That the street lamps should be kept It has become the proper caper for our people to visit the scene of operations, and yesterday throngs of people visited the scene, there being probably more railroad inspectors at the new roadbed than during any previous day. Everyone is land in their praises of the future of our town, and once the sars run into Asham by the Atchison route, we predict that even yesterday's enthusiasm will themselves be surprised at the advancement which will be the lot of the "Mother Colony." As soon as the roadbed shall have been completed it is proposed immediately to have the iron laid, and with almost the entire Santa Paula workmen in this immediate vicinity, it will be a matter of few weeks when our citizens may ride into Los Angeles by our new railroad. There is to be no depot at the junction near Orange. Trains from Colton to Los Angeles will simply branch off there, and those for San Diego will do the same. This arrangement will give Orange all the truth time of the real. The Rainer Covers. To the Editor of the Globe. But a short time ago and the first powerful base waves filled the space of Kruger's Hall, which was a slap in an acoustic point of view, and the impression which the means of Kruer's convert made upon everybody who was fortunate enough to listen to their excellent performance will not be so many forgotten. The musical treat of that evening, which certainly exceeded the expectation of everyone present, and especially the mastery and thorough execution on the part of pass member of Rainer's orchestra, will be remembered by many. I merely can conceive how it was possible, with the limited number of instruments, to reach such a perfection, and it shall give want to the feelings which filled my heart on that evening, it can be only one of unbounded admiration, caused by the highest manhood in the technical parts by the most assured premise and by the most intimate knowledge of the characterization of much prize. For many years I have had occasion to Mr. Buckley was born in Ireland, but his parents removed to this country when he was quite young, and he lived through his boyhood and youth in New York. His father was a contractor. Young Buckley, who is now 65, removed from New York to the Pacific Coast in 1800, when he was but 18 years of age. He commenced life as a streetcar driver, and devoted all the spare time he had to ward politics. He early developed an aptitude for ward politics, and soon became the rival of "Al Fritz," the local Democratic boss. The two sons entered into a political partnership and opened a saloon, which became Democratic headquarters. Their first movement in the direction of successful politics was to reduce the price of whisky from 25 cents to 124 cents a glass. They became popular, and by this, among other instrumentalities, soon became a political power in San Francisco. First, the senior partner of the firm finally yielded to his passion for liquor, and committed suicide at the end of a periodical spread. Buckley, who had already become stone blind as a consequence of chronic neuralgia, then succeeded to the democratic boss ship, and from that time to this he has been a dictator in local Democratic politics. In appearance there is nothing to suggest the ward politician. He is a man of medium size, with a pleasant face, which has not much expression, and square mouth, covered by a full mustache, and a jaw which shows indomitable will, which is the secret of his success. He plans the political meeting, and his lieutenant carry out his orders. His methods are those that have everywhere characterized the ward politician. He aspired at one time to enter the field of national politics, and was one of the California who used their influence to secure the nomination of Mr. Jasper Field for President of the United States at the Occonah Convention of 1876. PERSONAL MENTION. R. P. Kuhl, correspondent of the San Francisco Pressman, was in town on Tuesday, booking up news for the "Minarch of the Duluth." L. W. Kirby of Upper Santa Ana spent last Tuesday in town on Tuesday looking after his affairs. Mr. Salary Holman of Fairview dropped into the district mainstay the other day and reported things programming in his neighborhood. Mr. Charles Pederman, a brother of S. S. Pederman, arrived here from New York a few days ago. Mr. Pederman will engage in business here with his brother. Herr Runner, director of the Hungarian Orchestra, accompanied by his wife, paid reps to our amusement last Friday. Wide awake men have the matter well in hand and as they undoubtedly mean business the road ought to be well under way in a few weeks time. We hope to be able to give fuller particulars in our next issue. What is Being Said. That N. H. Mitchell discovered four and a half feet of land on Center street last week. Like a good citizen he immediately gave orders for the erection of a house thereon. That the street lamps should be kept burning—every mother's son of 'em. That the new railroad to the Landing will be one of the corner stones of Anaheim's prosperity. That when Mrs. Kerrigan tried to slash the Fallon jail other day, he simply told her not to let it O Kerrigan! That Anaheim can raise a ball club strong enough to down Los Angeles. That everybody is talking about the good paper we are making. That the Los Angeles people opened their eyes at the account of the Anaheim Landing harbor, and the abandonment of La Ballona, published in these columns last week. If they read the Guzarre regularly, their even will be kept right along. Being opened every week.

Company to be organized and preliminary to be arranged without delay. The wealthy and enterprising Anaheim have about completed their arrangements for a lease of Anaheim to the Landing. Theuch at Garden Grove and Westminster, continuing to the ocean, strike near the old Anaheim Land road will have a commodious town, and in all probability extend into the country thereabout. Female by the Civil Engineer of the road while at Anaheim some go place the probable cost of a Anaheim to the ocean at about the extra cost of a line to Platton, etc., at $25,000, a total of all. Prominent men of Anaheim have their willingness to lend financial proposed road, and with their here is no doubt that the enter- speedily pushed to completion. Kroeger, a gentleman who has lived with the progress and prosaheim probably as much as any not, is an enthusiastic believer in utility of the undertaking, and ready to back the enterprise with aid. Mr. Kroeger is one of our initial and enterprising citizens fact that he is one of the printers in the new railroad is evidence enterprise will be pushed for all. Rumpan is also one of Ana- Kleinigkeiten. Mr. Gilman obliged a time of Japanese presence to film Premiere periodly. During the week the Santa Ana digh was connected for a square of 2,400 feet at Upper Santa Ana. The S. P. R. R. has accepted the $40,000 donation to run them road from Norwalk to Winster. Mr. R. H. Gilman has paid his crop of walnuts to Alpine, Grey and Company for 3 cents. His crop will bring $2,200. Henry Ellinger was land $90 by Judge Pierce last week for indemniture of his person. The foundation of the Hotel Dal Campo is completed and the appurtenance will be completed as soon as carpenters can get to work. Transfers of real estate for this county placed on record from November 4th to November 15th amount to $3,682,351. Pretty good for dull times. Marger, Lemke & Wetzel have 150,000 brook which were made from hand-power press. They are sold and good square cornered, all really for building purposes. Mr. H. Cahen advertises that he is selling out below cost. He has a comprehensive and well assorted stock of goods and sells as chap as any storekeeper in the county. A steamer load of ties assigned to the Southern Pacific and destined to be used in the construction of the new railroad to Long Beach arrived at San Pedro yesterday. It is to be commenced on the road at once, the company already having some iron on hand and more on the way. The Anaheim branch of the S. P. R. R. is doing a good business. The trains are obliged to wait half an hour for passengers to board the southbound train at the Commercial street depot at Los Angeles and part of the time have to send back for extra cars to accommodate patrons. Landell & Schneider report the following sales: George W. Burton to Joseph Backer - Los G., Anaheim Homestead tract, $2,000; lots 6 and 7, same tract, to Joseph Dauer - G. W. Burton - House and lot on Centerstreet, $1,-750. The walnut crop is being shipped and wagons are passing through town every day on the way to the depot. Walnuts are priced at from 10 to 12 cents per pound to the producers. The Gilman crop will amount to $1,000 or $5,000. A walnut orchard is worth from $500 to $1,000 per acre. Lake Elkmore, the "Como of America." THE RESERVOIR. Construction to Be Commenced at Once. An Important Item in the Preservation of the Kettle Valley. From information gathered from parties interested, the interior steps have been taken on the reservoir by the Anaheim Union Water Company. The ground has all been cleared of brush and undergrowth. The committee appointed by the Directors of the Anaheim Union Water Company is conjunction with the engineers of said company inspecting the grounds on Monday last; and after a thorough investigation of the whole matter they decided to proceed at once to build the dam across the mouth of the gulch. In comparison with this step taken by the Board of Directors of the Anaheim Union Water Company all else falls into insignificance, so far as the advancement of our section of country is concerned. As old settlers, coming here in 80, we well recollect that, the waters of the Santa Ana river flowed in an almost continuous current from the head waters thereof to the ocean. As year after year passed by and the country became more thickly settled from here to San Bernardino, each little settlement necessarily had to use the life-giving dandel from the only sources from which it could be obtained—namely, the Santa Ana river. From that-time on the waters thereof have been gradually and continually falling, until now we find that in the months of July, August and September the water supply from the original source is not sufficient to supply the demand without aid of adventitious sources. This the Water Company has taken into due consideration. It has been talked of for years past, and steps were really taken to take advantage of the gift of land made by Kremer to said Company to construct a reservoir on said gift. Borings were made and the under strata thoroughly tested more than a year ago. It was found that in some places the soil was porous and the water steeped through. The majority of the land, however, had a clay formation, and would retain the water placed thermally minus evaporation. The Company promises to build it. Landell & Schneider report the following sales: George W. Burton to Joseph Baker—Long, Anaheim Homestead tract, $2,000; lots 6 and 7, same track, to Joseph Dauer, $3,500; Joseph Dauer to G. W. Burton—House and lot on Centerstreet, $1,700. The walnut crop is being shipped and wagon loads are passing through town every day on the way to the depot. Walnuts are priced at from 10 to 12 cents per pound to the producers. The Gilman crop will amount to $1,900 or $5,000. A walnut orchard is worth from $3,00 to $1,000 per acre. Lake Elsinore, the "Camo of America," at times presents some of the grandest pictures imaginable, so the people up that way remark. Our thanks are due for a year's pass to ride in the ferry-boat on the lake. As soon as we overcome our rush of business, we shall take a run up that way and accept the management's hospitality. A petition from a portion of the citizens of Orangeshorpe is in circulation asking that they be annexed to Anaheim School District, providing a ward schoolhouse be established at Fullerton, for which latter purpose a petition is being numerously signed. The Gazette is in receipt of a very bitter letter from Mr. H. U. Chenoweth of Paadena. The gentleman is enthusiastic over the prospects of Anaheim and Placentia. We will have to number Mr. Chenoweth among the citizens of Anaheim shortly, as we have plenty room for entertaining men such as he. G. W. Burton has sold lot 5 in the Anaheim Homestead Trout to Joseph Eater; consideration, $2,000; also lots 6 and 7 to Joseph Eater for $1,800 each. The purchasers will immediately begin the erection of two houses on the property. Mr. Burton has also let the contract to Mr. Eater for the grading of a sidewalk through the center of the tract. All the way from Zurich, Switzerland, comes the pleasing intelligence that that locality is becoming more and more the favorite "Rendez vous place" for American travelers and tourists in Switzerland. It possesses some of the finest hotels and promotions in Europe. To intending globetrotters from Anaheim we cheerfully give the information that it is conceded to be the best starting point for Swiss tours to the Engadine, Rhineland, Right, St. Gotthard's Bermuda Olerland and the Italo-Swiss lakes; and can be reached from Paris in "11 hours." Any information to travelers in Switzerland and the Continent is given gratis. A large number of Tyroleens assembled at the armory last Monday evening. The main object of the meeting, after a few minutes' drill, was the discussion of the company’s admittance into the National Guard. Captain P. S. Dorney gave some very good instructions relative to the mustering in of company. He said that the Tyroleens were very fortunate in gaining admission into the militia so soon, as they are several military companies striving for the same honor, who now will have to wait. The evening of November 26th next is the time set for the mustering event at which time General Butler will be in attendance to test the ability of the company. A supper is to be served after the services and an enjoyable affair is anticipated. The Tyroleens are a handsome body of active men and when arrayed in their new uniforms they will be hard to get away with. Considering the fact that there have been three deaths from diphtheria in Santa Anaheim Union Water Company supply the demand without the aid of all ventilations sources. This the Water Company has taken into due consideration. It has been talked of for years past, and steps were really taken to take advantage of the gift of land made by Kraemer to said Company to construct a reservoir on said gift. Borings were made and the under strata thoroughly tested more than a year ago. It was found that in some places the soil was porous and the water steeped through. The majority of the land, however, had a clay formation, and would retain the water placed thinner, minus the evaporation. The Company proposes to build a dam across the gap to make a thorough test of the same, and if deemed at all practicable will at once proceed to build a permanent dam, with the latest and most improved gate for the discharge of water into the main ditches. Said goes will not cost more than $150, with a capacity of discharging the full quantity which the ditches will carry. At the present time and for months to come water goes to waste, as no one wants it for irrigation, depending upon the rains to fall for sowing barley and all other requirements for the winter months, but for orange trees and alfalfa and the few vineyards still living, water is demanded for the summer months; and unless stored away, we will be in the same condition as we have been for the past two or three years, when every stockholder was clamoring for water, and each one demanding that he should be serviced first. Now that the initiative is made to consume the waste now going on at each stockholder land a helping hand to the furtherance of the object proposed, feeling that it is the salvation of the whole country, and that by the proposed method, a system of summer irrigation is assured that will meet all the requirements. Among the Anaheim notes in the Los Angeles Herald of yesterday we find the following: There is plenty of talk in Anaheim as to coming improvements. The next improvement discussed is a good opera house. The citizens think they ought to have a fitting place of amusement. Eastern people are getting their eye on fine property in the old town. One person is looking up a couple of good lots at a bargain for the purpose of putting up four stores with rooms or offices above. A pair of Los Angeles who owns a couple of five lots on Center street, near this two hotels, is about to put up a couple of stores with lodging rooms in the second story. The Sisters of Charity are getting their plans prepared for a fine school building to be erected on Palm street, toward between Center and Sycamore streets. The Anaheim Improvement Company are ready to receive funds for grading and curbing the sidewalk between Olive and Orange streets, on the south side of Center street.

BARTER. November 15th, in the wake of them. BARTER. November 15th, Trish Bone. In Anaheim, November 15th, Minima aged 7 years. Considering the fact that there have been three deaths from diphtheria in Santa Ana the past month, and that the disease seems prevalent in many parts of the county, it behoves all property-owners in Anaheim and vicinity to take all useful precautions against the introduction and spread of the disease in our midst. Dr. Bullard advises that all rubbish should be carefully cleaned about the yards and houses and turned. Every other day or so a few sheaves of dry earth should be thrown into the prince. If these have not been moved for some years this should be done once. Dustfactions should be made in a lavish manner. Of these the cheapest and perhaps the best is copper. A solution of one and one-half pounds to a gallon of water should be made and used freely about the house and thrown into the vaults as well. It there is any stagnant water about it must be looked after. It should be drained away and hose thoroughly over the damp earth. A crowded house laten to the be watching music of Ramer's Orchestra last Friday evening, and many regretted it was the only opportunity of hearing this company of world famous musicians. All would have retained a fuller electric representation, but on account of the small hall Herr Meyer decided not to introduce any apparatus except the electric bulb, with which he rendered Strum "" Morning Leaves" waits in creditable style, in the bulbs, however, not responding as nearly as he undoubtedly Journal. The programme was excellently rendered and lively again but Herr Stark's vault sale from "Orpheus" being especially favored. Herr Mayer's calls sale was a super price of money. He met with the same reception here which has every where been recorded him. One of the features of the programme was the condition of Mr Prina Nebulang's "" Guibandam Tomtack," which was anxiously looked forward to by that gentleman's many friends. It was a difficult piece of music and was anxiously rendered. The programme mixed with a petunia from "Mitada," which can easily rendered and heartily applauded.
