EVENTS OF THE WEEK. Energetic Work by the S.P. and Santa Fe. Grand Army Encampment at the Landing Hotel Del Campo A Wayward Min Tax Valuations. The Southern Pacific construction train will be at the junction at Polhemus this morning with a force of workmen to begin tracklaying on their new road, which will be completed to Tustin in about two weeks. Superintendent of Bridges Flanders inspected the route on Tuesday, and is authority for the statement that work will commence tomorrow. Several train loads of rails and ties are on the ground, and enough material will be on hand to enable the tracklayers to rush the work through to a speedy completion. Ties will be laid across the Santa Ana river on which rails will temporarily be placed to allow tracklaying to continue on the other side of the river, while the bridge is being built. As soon as the track reaches the river a pile driver will be put at work and the road completed at once. Scranton steel rails will be used. The construction train passed through to the junction yesterday afternoon. A large gang of laborers were ahead. Some sixty men will begin operation this morning. The material on the ground yesterday was augmented last evening by the arrival of five carloads of steel rails and twenty carloads of ties. The entire force of Santa Fe track layers at Oceanide have been transferred to the Los Angeles branch, where tracklaying is being pushed with all possible speed. It is said that the road will be completed here in about two weeks, but we are informed that it is next to impossible, as some heavy grading still remains to be done. However, the company have at last given their entire attention to our branch road and it is within the bounds of reason that cars will be running into Anaheim in twenty days. GRAND ARMY ENCAMPMENT. Hundreds of Veterans to Go to the Landing in August. A meeting was held on last Thursday afternoon at Malvern Hill Post headquarters in Odd Fellows Hall for the purpose of deciding not the threatened train did not put in an appearance. Sunday morning dawned. The excitement continued, but the train did not sit me. To keep their rivals on guard, however, McPadden intentionally sent another talgran, urging the supposed summary in Los Angeles to hurry up the train. The result of all this has been to keep Santa Ana in a difficult, and to ensure some mischievous persons, possibly in the secret, to send out some funny reports—one being that the Willard Military Company had been called out. This organization happens to be only a little band of charming young girls who, with their broomstick drill, made a very pleasant feature at the recent flower festival at Santa Ana. The McPadden party declare they have no thought of violence, and that the whole thing is a huge joke on the other side. LOVE ON CRETCHES A Pretty Mexican Girl Who Canne Marry Her Mme. Lovena. Trinidad Estrada and Miss Jeanne Encinas, both of Upper Santa Ana, who disappeared together some two weeks ago, presumably for the purpose of getting married, appeared in Judge Fox's court on Saturday, a warrant having been issued for the arrest of Trinidad on a charge of abduction. Jesus is said to be but 14 years of age, which is possibly a mistake. Jesus is just a little older—a handsome young lady. She was attired in a lovely suit of light calico, straw bonnet of latest style, and a bowtie look that paralyzed the reporter. Trinidad sat near the object of his affection, reducing a cigarette to ash and blowing vast streams of smoke through both nostrils. Anon the fair charmer gazed looks of uninterable love at Trinidad, and then amused on the newspaper man with a watchful ogle that made his hair curl. The girl's parents would not consent to her marriage, so the couple determined to slope. They went to Los Angeles and implored a priest to marry them, which he refused to do, owing to the objection of the girl's parents. When the couple appeared in court they were confronted with Mr. and Mrs. Encina, the latter being much affected at sight of the trout girl. The father was willing to forgive the young couple and allow the marriage to proceed, but the old lady resolutely refused and insisted that her daughter return home with her. After giving testimony Trinidad was held in $200 bonds to answer to a charge of abduction. Jesus returned home with her parents, and Trinidad buried himself in precarious bail. Senor Encina was in town yesterday and conveyed the information that Miss Jeanne now "hates Trinidad like poison." The young lady is said to have been taken through a course of sprouts upon her arrival at home, and her change of sentiment in regard to Trinidad may be due to the applica- NEIGHBORHOOD NEWS. Notable Happenings of the Week. [BROUGLER CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZETTE] FULLERTON PRACTICES Visit on the Mailroad GraderaVines from our Regular Correspondent. EDITOR GAZETTE: I read in the San Francisco Ballot that "The road from San Bernardino to San Diego will be running by July 4th and the direct road from Los Angeles by July 20th," or words to that effect, so find out how much railroad needed grading between that already graded and the force at work this side of Santa Fe Springs it hitched up my "firey untamed steel" and proceeded last Sunday afternoon in quest of information—determined to spare neither trouble or expense, a la Excimmer. Just after passing the artesian well on the hills west of the Coyote House I turned towards Norwalk and just beyond the next range of hills found an eight-mile队 plowing. On inquiry it proved to be one of the railroad teams plowing for the scraping teams, they having "caught up" with the first named team. I was informed that there were twenty-one scraping teams in camp, and that 150 work mules were out at pasture on Kraemer's ranch east of here, and that camp would be moved this last Tuesday to the aforesaid flowing well or immediate vicinity. There is one sixteen-foot fill to be made and the rest of the work to be done to connect with the roadbed already graded west of Fallerton is not heavy. The older of the Measura Jomeslyn has just arrived in town and the machinery for the making of fruit cans at their cannery will soon be put in place for active operation. Measura W. H. Prink and H. Haanna were in town this week writing up life insurance on our townpeople and farmers. The vines are now in full bloom. To my mind there is nothing more delicious than the delicate scent of the grape blossom, far dainter than mignonette, much more refined than the finest tea rose. Measura P. J. des Granges & Co. have erected the new windmill frame for the town works, doing their work in their usual good style. The Pullerton postoffice received its first mail on Tuesday. Its mail is sent from Anaheim every day at 11. I hear that G. C. Carpenter of the firm of Wilshire & Co. is coming down here to make quite a stay. George Amerige had the misfortune to take a valuable friend his hunting dog... GRAND ARMY ENCAMPMENT. Hundreds of Veterans to go to the Landing in August. A meeting was held on last Thursday afternoon at Malvern Hill Post headquarters in Odd Fellows Hall for the purpose of deciding whether the various Grand Army posts in Southern California go into encampment during the summer. Posts were represented by delegates as follows: Sodgwick Post, No. 17, Santa Ana—W. A. Insley, L. Bell, E. C. Jones, F. L. Sexton, Sulphot Post, No. 60, Compton, J. Santouge, A. Stevens; Malvern Hill Post, No. 101, Anaheim—G. A. Irwin, Erwin Barr, W. H. Hounsom, A. E. Hendricks, J. Foloney; Gordon Granger Post, No. 138, Orange—C. E. Berry, J. H. Hall, Win Sanders; Dan Belwell Post, No. 140, Norwalk—John Booker, L. C. Mason, E. C. Cranstown, Win Bailey; Camp McDowell, Sons of Veterans, Santa Ana—E. L. Cummins, A. Cheatum, D. D. Wintson. Colonel Broker was appointed Chairman and J. H. Hall of Orange Secretary. After some discussion it was decided to hold the encampment at Anaheim Landing, continuing on August 14th next and continuing ten days. Colonel Broker was elected Encampment Commander, C.E.Barry Senior Commander and L.Bell Quartermaster. Various committees were appointed to look after details of the encampment. An invitation was extended to Department Commander Goodman and staff of San Francisco to be present. A generous invitation is extended to all to join the veterans at the seaside. The daily routine of camp life will be observed. Army calls and duties will be carried out from receieve at daylight to tape at night, including guard mount and dress parade. Matters will be kept in strict military discipline and host of order maintained. Games will be played during the encampment. Baseball, football, greased pole and other amusements will occupy the attention of those in attendance. Appropriate prizes will be given. Conveyances will be at all points to convey passengers to the seashore. HOTEL DEL CAMPO The Imposing Edifice Approaching completion The Hotel del Campo is rapidly nearing completion. A visit paid the palatial hotel yesterday developed the fact that every thing said in praise of the building is true to the letter. Plasterers have completed their work and painters are now engaged in giving the structure its first coat. The building will be completed and ready for occupation in about a month, when it is proposed to open the hotel with a grand ball which will eclipse anything of the kind ever held here. The rooms are large and well ventilated and the house is plentifully supplied with pictureque verandas, where guests may enjoy the calm breezes of the afternoon. The ladies' parlor on the first floor will be a model of elegance. A large octagonal bay window in this room, as in the reception-room immediately underneath, will give a sapital view of the surroundings. The dining room will be large and airy, the ceiling being supported by three large iron braces no pillars being allowed in the room. It will be one of the finest dining rooms in paved with all possible speed. When the couple appeared in court they were confronted with Mr. and Mrs. Ecinaus the latter being much affected as sight of the truant girl. The father was willing to forgive the young couple and allow the marriage to proceed, but the old lady resolutely refused and insisted that her daughter return home with her. After giving testimony Trinidad was held in $200 bonds to answer to a charge of abduction. Jesus returned home with her parents and Trinidad buke himself in precuring bail. Senor Ecinaus was in town yesterday and conveyed the information that Miss Jesus now "hathes Trinidad like poison." The young lady is said to have been taken through a course of sprouts upon her arrival at home, and her change of septiment in regard to Trinidad may be due to the application of the paternal birch. However, it is believed by some that Miss Jesus and Trinidad will shortly make another attempt to be married. Property Valuation. Some of the eccentricities of individuals who hold real estate here, and who will not improve their property nor sell at a fair valuation, have lately come to light in the levying of taxes for the current fiscal year. Hammel & Denker of Los Angeles, who are quite extensively interested in Anaheim real estate, were willing to have their property assessed at $1,180. It is said they recently price the价ame at $25,000 when asked to sell to citizens who contemplated extensive improvements. Their assessment has been fixed, however, at about $10,000. Some sixteen acres on the Lorelei tract were valued by the owners, having the same assessed for taxation, at $1,000, which ludicrously low price will be raised to about what appears to the proper authorities to be the correct valuation. The property will be assessed at about $10,000. Several other oblations of judgment have come to the surface, but the two above mentioned give rise to the most merriment. Quite a Fortune. The recent decision of the Supreme Court of Missouri that the city of East St.Louis is legally bound to pay bondholders for bonds issued in excess of the limit fixed by the city government, will be the means of getting a citizen of Anaheim the song sum of almost $50,000. The bonds were purchased, so it is said, at ten cents on the dollar, after the defeat of the bill in the Missouri Legislature, providing that the State assume payment of the bonds. The case has been in litigation for some twenty years, and the recent decision rendering the city liable for payment caused much constatation, as about a million offdollars fall due with interest. Ben Voyage. W.A.Irwin left on Monday for Salt Lake city, where he will enter the service of the Northern Pacific Railroad, and have charge of a construction force on the route now building from Salt Lake to Los Angeles.Mr.Irwin has been in Anaheim tor several months and has made hosts of friends who regret his departure. He was in charge of the construction of the Anaheim and Olinda Railway, and showed himself to be a first-class railroad builder. Among the corporations which have hailed him in their play in several responsible capacities are the New York Central, Nickel-plate System,Buffalo,New York and Philadelphia,C Chicago and Atlantic,C Chicago and Northwestern and others of national reputation.Mr.Irwin expects to be back here some day,and will make an effort to be with the first force of railroad constructors to enter Los Angeles on the road from Utah. Placentaia TOPICS Fruit Crops Tool Weather Tariff Discussion Etc. From our Regular Correspondent. EDITOR GAZETTE—The fruit has set.The peach crop promises to be a heavy one.Pears and prunes a fair crop.The walnut as good or better than any previous year. The vines are not don’trishing as we could wish。它 is only a question of time when the vineyards will be replaced with English walnuts or orange trees.And if the canneries pay any price peach orchards will pay,after they bear well and soon are easily tended. We hear that Wesley Alras has bought a snug cottage at Carlton and proposes to move it onto his valuable 20-acre lot on Placentia avenue.Wonder if this means anything also besides being a good investment?He now has the cage;now look out for the bird.The there are others for sale. The weather is exceedingly cool for the month of May.The delegates to the Democratic State Convention thought when coming to Southern California they would find hot weather,bbut were much surprised to find it so cool. The tariff question will be discussed on Friday evening (to morrow) at the Placentia Literary Society. When are the orange growers coming together to form their union for mutual instruction and protection?Everyone who has an orange tree should feel an interest in this matter. The Vine Hopper In regard to the remedies for the vine-hopper,the system recommended by the Viticultural Commission is both tedious and expensive.A very simple,iuxexpensive and efficient-remedy may be found in use of concentrated lye.Vityardists in the north are using lye with uniform success.它 is recommended that two small cans of concentrated lye be thoroughly dissolved in forty gallons of water,and the mixture sprayed upon the leaves and stalks of the vines,care being taken that the spraying be not done as to break or injure the foliage by its force.The work should be done before sunrise or after sunset.Aby placing a barrel upon a light The building will be completed and ready for occupancy in about a month, when it is proposed to open the hotel with a grand ball, which will eclipse anything of the kind ever held here. The rooms are large and well ventilated and the house is plentifully supplied with pictureque verandas, where guests may enjoy the calm breezes of the afternoon. The ladies' parlor on the first floor will be a model of elegance. A large octagonal bay window in this room, as in the reception room immediately underneath, will give a capital view of the surroundings. The dining room will be large and airy, the ceiling being supported by three large iron braces, no pillars being allowed in the room. It will be one of the finest alining rooms in the county. From the tower of the hotel—a magnificent panorama is revealed to the eye. The Catalina island is plainly visible, forty-two miles away. A pleasant view of the entire valley is hailed from the topmost landing, a dozen towns coming within the range of observation. The hotel will be supplied with all modern improvements, and be well equipped with electric fire gongs and apparatus. All conveniences of first-class hotels will be found here. The opening of the house will be looked forward to with interest by our entire people. A thoroughgoing hotel keeper will have charge of the house, and we doubt exists that he will be able to make it one of the famous hotels of the State. A HUH JOKA The Recent Street-Railway War at Santa Ana a Moax. Some rather sensational reports have been sent from Santa Ana for the past day or two regarding the coming hostilities between the partisans of the Santa Ana and the Tustin motor railway company, and the Santa Ana, Orange and Tustin horse railway company, each of which claim the same franchise along Fourth street in that town. The facts of the matter indicate that, as far as one side at least is concerned, the war is a huge joke. It seems that after the horse-railway people got possession of the road over which the mother company claimed a franchise, M.J. Bunny, the leading spirit of the former company, became alarmed at the talk that the motor road people, with James McPadden at the head, would tear up the trunk. On Saturday the McPadden party put their rivals on the ragged edge. A telegram was sent to a gentleman in Los Angeles who acting under instructions, promptly forwarded the following reply: "Construction train will reach Santa Ana about 9:30 to night with 65 men." This was shown to some of the factious, and they all once prepared for hostilities. A raid was made on the hardware shop, and in a short time the men, armed with revolvers, shotguns, clubs and other weapons, were on the fronts ready to meet the hostile construction team and its alleged load of 65 detainees. The sight wore on and the waiting party brawled on the trash. Irwin has been in Anaheim for several months and has made hosts of friends who regret his departure. He was in charge of the construction of the Anaheim and Olinda Railway, and showed himself to be a first-class railroad builder. Among the corporations which have had him in their play in several responsible capacities are the New York Central, Nickel-plate System, Buffalo, New York and Philadelphia; Chicago and Atlantic; Chicago and Northwestern and others of national reputation. Mr. Irwin expects to be back here some day, and will make an effort to be with the first force of railroad constructors to enter Los Angeles on the road from Utah. Museball. A game of ball was played last Sunday by some of our young men, showing them to be improving in the national game. A first and second nine will be organized, when the club will be open to all challenges. Among the players on Sunday who showed themselves possessed of good judgment were Messrs. McPherson and Rust, pitcher; Hudson and Sieger, catchers; Norman, Albertson, Wallace, Niela, Gamber, Borquinia, Fox and others on the bags and in the outfield. With sufficient practice our ball players will be able to give a fine exhibition. Chapter of Accidents. F.A. Goodrich, Secretary of the water company at Orange, had the thumb of his left hand almost severed while placing a pump in place in his iron well last week. Mr. Sutton, living near the bridge at the Santa Ana river, was unfortunate enough to be kicked on the jaw by a colt last week. The jaw was broken. Mr. Shaffer of Orange had a leg broken the same day by a kick from a coll. Accident Insurance. Nothing can more strongly emphasize the wisdom and propriety of carrying accident insurance than the chapter of accidents that have recently occurred in this vicinity. A broken jaw, a fractured leg, a bruised hand and a sprained ankle make up the record of a single week, and no indemnity for lost time in either case. Mr. H.D. Pollensma is resident agent of the Pacific Metal and would be pleased to write you up and furnish you this protection need. Delay not, for it may be your turn next. Santa Ana Society Committee. Two Santa Ana girls went to Laguna on Sunday with their beans. While strolling around, two other youths from town made their appearance, and the girls were no inclined with them that they dropped their snacks for the dudes. The snapsmen was that the first bean hitched up their Male righn and pulled for home, hearing the girl to spend the day with the dudes. Having no accord home they stayed all night, and most morning hired a rig to bring them home. The Vine Hopper In regard to the remedies for the vine-hopper, the system recommended by the Viticultural Commission is both tedious and expensive. A very simple, inexpensive remedy may be found in use of concentrated lye. Vineyardists in the north are using lye with uniform success. It is recommended that two small cans of concentrated lye be thoroughly dissolved in forty gallons of water, and the mixture sprayed upon the leaves and stalks of the vines, cared being taken that the spraying be not done as to break or injure the foliage by its force. The work should be done before sunrise on after sunset. By placing a barrel upon a light hand-cart it would be an easy matter to spray many acres in a few hours, and any very inconsiderable expense. The Garden Grove Murderer. Anschlag's brutal young face is known to every one who frequents the courts or visits the jail says The Los Angeles Times. During the time when he was under sentence of death, he was the most miserable looking individual imaginable. He occupied the murderer's call in a company with a death watch, and whenever visitors would enter the cell, would turn pale and tremble, as if in dailly fear. He had an idea that an attempt would be made to liven him, and kept that thought always before him. Once the Grand Jury were inspecting the jail and went into his cell. The sight of the unusual crowd almost paralyzed him, and he covered in a corner like one gone mad. But things are going better with him now that an appeal has been taken, and he hugs the fouse but delusive hope that nothing worse than five years at San Quentin awaits him. With that idea he has become more cheerful. His sullenness goes; likewise his terror of visitors, and he talks in a cheerful, not too advenary manner with any one who speaks his language. His days are spent in reading and playing cards, and remorse plays little part in his mind or emotions. His ease is with the Saprame Court, and it is in general expression that the decision of the lower court will be affirmed, in which avenue Anchlag willwing. There Certainly Should. Santa Ana Slide. A business requiring the work pertaining to the newspaper business should entitle its owner to some compensation. There is very little glory in it—as much carving as blending—and there certainly should be some cash. General Thomas J. Clannis, Demonstrates for Congress from The Fifth District, accompanied by his wife, Miss Ann Higginson and Susan Madden and will take a pleasure trip to San Diego after The Convention and return on Tuesday in Los Angeles. The party express great delight inthe honeymoon of Southern California. THE ANAHEIM, GAZETTE, THURSDAY, MAY 24, 1890. IBORHOOD NEWS. The Happenings of the Week. FOR REPRESENTANCE OF THE GAZETTE.

Mr. Prink has written up a prodigious amount of business for his company while here, and has at the same time made hosts of friends during his stay. Regino Garcia hired a horse and buggy at Santa Ana several days ago, intending to return the next day. He failed to put in an appearance on time and Sunday morning the rug was found near the stable, the horse hitched to a post and the buggy in a demoralized condition.

Several other cases of sickness have occurred during the past two weeks, nothing serious resulting, however. Governor Downey and wife are the guests of Senator McCoy in San Diego, and are very cordially received by the many friends of both the groom and bride. The Governor will be detained in San Diego a few days longer, looking after certain of his lands which the water company was trying to have condemned for a water supply, after which it is possible that he may go to San Francisco for a short visit. The Governor and his brides are an happy man, spending time in going over the innunes estate. Mrs. Downey accompanies her husband everywhere, and is directed to him. They will reside permanently in Los Angeles. When the harvest is over it is usually found that the result is better than the early predictions. Beside wheat, there are two great crops of barley and oats to swell the figures. These cereals are grown to a larger extent in the coastal counties, where moistures in the driest years is generally sufficient to bring them to full maturity. The coast counties of California from San Diego to Del Norte have suffered very little from drought; even in Southern California, the coast lines has been well watered this year. Hardly a discouraging report comes from any of these counties, while in some of them the crops were never better. When a dry season prevails the interior of the state suffers most. The valleys where there have not been more than five or six inches of rain will have the greatest shortage in cereals. Reports come in from these districts of half crops, and in some instances no crops. Thus, on the west side of the San Joaquin valley, very little wheat will mature this year. This will also be true of the wheat district in the lower end of the valley. Of course, irrigated lands and summer-fallowed land will have full or fair crops. The late sown grain is everywhere caught by the drought. The shortage is not confined this year to California. It is still hoped that there will be two-thirds of a crop in this State. The two untoward influences affecting the cereal crops in the Staats east of the Rocky mountains, have been the cold weather continued late in the spring months, and afterward excessive wet weather. In Minnesota and other Northwestern States, spring wheat had decayed before sprouting. The outlook for the entire country supports the theory of a short wheat crop. It is hardly probable that the reported shrinkage of 45,000,000 bushels for the entire country is an exaggeration. At mid-winter, when the rains were abundant in this State, many sanguine people counted up 1,000,000 tons of wheat for California. The same people do not now count upon more than 750,000 tons. But it would be hard to find anyone who would guarantee the absolute correctness of this last estimate. It is only a shrewd gren, supported, however, by considerable data already collected. The fact is not to be ignored in this connection that good barley and oats crops will go somewhere to help out the aggregate value of cereals produced this season. Very few complaints of storage have been made as to these crops. Should much higher prices prevail in Europe a few months later, as many new sanguine expectations by this advenue although high prices would not help those who have no wheat to sell.
