Difficult Nut for Irrigators to Crack. The Board of Directors of the Anaheim Irrigation District met yesterday afternoon. Present, Directors Ryan, Zeyn, Greeley and Hunter. Director Wrede was absent, being confined to his home by a broken leg. After the usual routine the board adjourned to 1 o'clock when business was resumed. The resignation of H. D. Polhemus as Collector of the district was received and accepted and A. B. Calman appointed to fill the vacancy. A committee was appointed to confer with the Yorba district concerning a settlement of the differences existing between them and the present irrigation district. Directors Greeley and Ryan being appointed such committee. It being moved that an Engineer be selected, a vote was taken, but after two ineffectual ballots—Woods receiving-two votes and Kellegg two—the matter was postponed until the next meeting. A letter of condolence was directed sent to Director Wrede, conveying the board's sympathy for his misfortune in breaking his leg. The following letter was read, and excited much discussion: SOUTHEEN PACIFIC RAILLOAD, OFFICE OF E. B. RYAN, SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 11, 1889. Max Nielsen, Earp, Assistant Anchorage District — DEAR SIDE. Under a misapprehension as to the liability of our railroad to be taxed for irrigation purposes, we made a return to you of our railroad situated in your district. Under later advice I ask the privilege of withdrawing and statement from the fact that our land covered by the right of way and its superstructure forming the railroad is not subject to taxation for irrigation purposes. You're very truly, E. B. RYAN. The letter went over to next Tuesday's meeting for action. Adjourned. HORRIBLE DOUBLE MURDER. Mrs. Effie Scholl of Tustin Slays Her Children and Takes Poison. The descent was made on Sunday, when brandy was found in every part of the distillery, and much of it was in whisky barrels from which the old stamps had not been removed. Young denied all knowledge of having any brandy except in the distillery and the matter was reported to Collector Ellis at San Francisco. Young has paid no revenue tax on brandy during the present year. The most serious feature of the case is the finding of the brandy in the old whisky barrels. Whisky sellers are obliged by the Government rules to destroy the revenue stamps as soon as a barrel isemptied. Some months ago Young bought out the stock of Peter Esthellback's saloon, included in which were a number of almost empty barrels of whisky. The stamps on these barrels were not destroyed, and he has used them as a cover to his illicit dealings.Pending orders from the head office to make a seizure, the winery and distillery are detained,and nothing can be moved except by orders of the officers. Young is liable to be indicted on four separate charges—running a distillery without reporting his transactions to the Government, making false returns to the Government, refilling packages without destroying the stamps, and selling brandy without previously paying the duty. FORTY PER CENT. G Company's Average at Regimental Target Practice. Tuesday was the day appointed for G Company's shoot for the regimental trophy. Forty-eight men out of a company roll of 57 made a total of 1,185 points, a company average of 40 per cent, and an individual average of 50 per cent. The shoot was under the supervision of Lieut. Blooser of Los Angeles, Regimental Inspector of Target Practice. Firing began at 9 o'clock, and continued up to 4:30, when Wesley Alma shot the final score, adding 20 points to the total. Forty-eight men out of a roster containing the names of 57 men were present during the day. Of the absentees several are residents of Westminster and were unable to be present.The company average is reduced 10 per cent by the nine absentees.The silver water pitcher won by the company for best marksmanship at the Encampment at Pacific Beach some months ago was the trophy shot for, beside a prize of $10 offered by Captain Wood for the best score of the day.Sergeant Krooger, Corporal Hatfield and Private Porter shot a tie of 37 points for this latter prize. They will probably shoot again shortly to decide who is to have the purse.A. Schneider has the leather medal for the poorest score,he having made but 3 points.He is closely followed for the honor of being the target-bearer by Fred Crist,who has 5 Corporal Keifhaber male 6,and Deputy Postmaster Hillmer 7.

A horrible tale of bloodshed was reported yesterday morning from Tustin by telegraph. Mrs. E. I. Scholl, who some time ago was divorced from her husband, cut the throats of two small children at daylight yesterday morning and then took poison. The telegram informs that nothing was done to save the woman's life, and by this time she probably dead. Her divorced husband had recently instituted proceedings to have the children remanded to his care. The woman, rather than see her children given into the hands of Scholl, killed them and took carbolic acid and slashed her throat. Reports at this writing are meager, but the lamentable occurrence is the blackest ever known in our history. A GAZETE reporter was soon upon the scene of the murder, and proceeded at once to the room where the melancholy occurred had taken place. An undertaker was at work preparing the bodies of the two children, one a boy five years of age and the other a girl three, for interment. Both had already been placed in their coffins, which revealed only their faces. Their throats had been lashed with a sharpened caseknife and presented a ghastly spectacle. Both were lying in the room next to the bedroom in which they were slaughtered. When the undertaker had finished preparing their coffins the relatives of the children were led into the death chamber. The aged grandmother was overcome with grief, and had to be sup ported while viewing the horrible spectacle. "Oh my, my God, I don't know which is which," she sobbed aloud. Both corpses looked so much alike in their death sleep. Every eye in the room was in tears. This is the boy, and that is the girl, said the undertaker. "Oh, my little darling, you will never hug your poor old grandma again, and then the aged woman enters a paroysis of grief that was heart-breaking in the extreme. All present were buried in horror at the mother's crime. She was years of age." The reporter lies in the room and questioned a gentleman sitting on a box in the room as to what caused Mrs. Scholl to commit the deed. Some of the relatives and friends were present, all in tears. The aged man was of the opinion that the murder was a case of "cussedness" on the part of the mother. The dead wagon walled outside for thieves of the murdered innocents. The thieves themselves seemed impatient to get away. Soon the undertaker and his assistants passed the collision in the wagon and drove it away. The crime was committed in the house occupied by Mrs. Scholl, which sets fifty yards in the rear of the residence of her mother. The house is very cheaply built and unpainted. Worn carpet covers the floor. In the chamber where the crime was committed everything was yet in disorder. The window curtain was drawn but the set-up inappropriate as to the liability of our railroad to be taxed for irrigation purposes, we made a return to you of our railroad situated in your district. Under later advice I ask the privilege of withdrawing said statement from the fact that our land covered by the right of way and its superstructure forming the railroad is not subject to taxation for irrigation purpose.

The aged man was of the opinion that the murder was a case of "cuspedness" on the part of the dead. The dead wagon waited outside for the bodies of the murdered innocents. The before themselves seemed impatient to get away. Soon the undertaker and his assistants passed the coffin in the wagon and drove tapely away. The crime was committed in the house occupied by Mrs. Scholl, which sets fifty yards in the rear of the residence of her mother. The house is very cheaply built and unpainted. Worn carpet covers the floor. In the chamber where the crime was committed everything was yet in disorder. The window curtain was drawn but the sitting room shed a ruddy light, through the side of the window where the curtain still remained disarranged, upon the blood-stained bed clothes. The blankets were thrown in a heap at the foot of the bed, and the sheets near the pillows were stained with gore. In different parts of the bed were patches of blood. Near the head of the bed was a chloroform vial showing that the unfortunate woman must have suffered her children before murdering them. After that she took carbolic acid and slashed her own throat. Last evening she was still alive, but death momentarily expected. She had been removed from her house to her mother's residence. As to the cause of the murder there is but one punition. Mrs. Scholl, whose maiden name was Goodwin, before her marriage was taken about in the village, and a strong effort was made by Scholl's friends to prevent wedding. However, the marriage took place some time in 1883, and soon the wife's deceased were alienated from her husband. He left the country and obtained a divorce. Finally made an application to be placed upon the list of indigents who receive alms from the county, and her husband made an effort to secure the children, saying he would support them without the county's land rather than have him receive the little money he murdered them and then attempted to harm herself into the great beyond. So ends the most blood-curdling murder since Anchorage murdered the Hitchcocks at Garden Grove a year and a half ago. Illicit Distillery Seized. The distillery of George Young between Orange and Santa Ana, was seized by the revenue officers on Sunday last. It appears that the Government has been for some time just suspicious of Young's transactions and special detective was sent to watch the Poor Billy Morrow A letter received by W. R. Harker a few days ago from Billy Morrow's relatives in Wisconsin conveys the sad intelligence that Billy is confined in the Madison insane asylum. It will be remembered that Morrow strayed away from Anaheim about a year and a half ago, and a search lasting several days was made for him, some thinking that he had possibly committed suicide or died in the adjacent hills. He had at that time been acting strangely and he suddenly took the notion into his head to walk to Cuccamonga, where he obtained employment, leaving his attention here, insisting that every one was trying to injure him. Some weeks ago he returned to his home, but soon gave additional evidences of insanity, with the result that he was sent to an asylum. The letter conveys the intelligence that there is some hope that Morrow may ultimately recover. Billy had hosts of friends here up to the day of his departure and several times late at night a dozen men started to investigate reports that had just come to town that a man, either asleep or dead, had been seen lying on the road at sundown. A hunter, cautiously creeping around cactus bushes in search of rabbits, was pronounced by an observant individual to be Morrow, and friends immediately searched for hours looking for the demented man. Finally word came that he was at Cuccamonga, and the search for him that had been going on almost continously for a week, was given up. The friends of the unfortunate man hope that he may recover. Surprise Parsy. James L. Thompson was given a surprise party at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Hacks, near the S. P. depot on Friday even- Filton complex gathered together and not enjoyable time remained. Miss Edna is among a number of choice abattoirs, while Mary accompanying her on the dancing was participated in until supper announced by the host, after which night fantastic was commenced until the wee hours.

S.S.Federman,the enterprising drygoods merchant,has just returned from San Wine Disease Hard Wheeler of Fresno was in town week in search of diseased vines, which attracts to cure. He has made a long thorough study of the disease now ravineyards in the southern part of the and has reached the conclusion that ally is caused by a lack of nourish which should be returned from the back to the roots. This function be in order that the vine may remain. The roots first perform their office leaves, and the latter, spreading out sunshine, are expected by nature to their life-giving sustenance to the Mr. Wheeler's theory is that a disfungoid origin attacks the smaller and tendrils, destroying first the tissues, then the heavier parts of the and finally the roots.

He also mentions the fact that a fourteen years old and badly diseased, was up at Orange and transferred to a hothouse at San Gabriel, where it needed a growth of twelve or fourteen feet ing the summer. This he thinks is owing fact that the dampness and cold air kept from the top of the vines, pre-gilmed. Had the vine disease been root the removal of the vine would produced no effect.

AT DRUGGING DEALERS The Biggest Pumpkins. Charles Baker brought to town on Saturday morning two mammoth pumpkins raised in this season on Mrs. E. R. Collins' east of town. One weighed 208 pounds and measured 7 feet in circumference; the other tipped the beam at 150 and was 7 feet 2 inches around. Two five months from the seed, raised for feed, measured 34 inches around, and held 45 pounds. The pumpkins were object of much admiration. Sanford on endeavored to buy the larger, for late shipment to the Dallas, Texas, fair, but H. D. Polhemus had secured it for the New York fair, which is understood to stand in of large-sized pumpkins. The one by Mr. Baker will astonish the fans. If left for the Empire State by fans on Saturday. Death from consumption. Niko von Goleash, a physician of Scot-Dakota, who came here three weeks after the benefit of his health, expired at the Saras Hotel some time on Saturday night, illoping consumption. He was last alive at about 11 o'clock, when attendee of the hotel, returning from the theater, led to his room to see whether any asses could be rendered. He assured that everything was all right and that was feeling comfortable. During the he was heard coughing, and on Sun-norning when the porter went to call one was found dead, having expired a time before, as the body indicated. Porse was removed to Back's undertakings, and a telegram sent to deceased's conforming her of the occurrence. By her action the remains were photographed and filed on Monday. Among deceased's patrons a life insurance policy for $1,000. Its Excellent Qualities Send to public approval the California fruit remedy Syrup of Figs. It is going to the eye and to the taste, and by acting on the kidneys, liver and bow-cleanses the system effectually, there-motoring the health and comfort of all use it. Berry & Everhardy pay the highest price lives and hogs. Next Saturday is the anniversary of the organization of the company, and the boys want to give a campfire and bean bake, while the Captain insists upon giving a banquet at a hotel. The company have put their foot down and are determined to have their campfire. The Captain threatens to call out the members for drill on the night of the celebration and keep them drilling till daylight. There will be a courtmartial to investigate the Captain's conduct. Attention is directed to the advertisement of Sanford Johnson's barns and stock yards, situated south of town on the old Sears' place in the Bolsaa. Mr. Johnson buys and pays the highest market price for cattle, hay, corn, pumpkins and beets, and should be seen by the farmers of this section who have produce to sell. He will shortly begin feeding cattle for the Southern California market, and has the only stock pens in this part of the State. This is an industry that will be productive of great good to our section, as all stock feed will now be turned into cash as fast as the cattle herd can eat it. Agent Desmond of the California Central has presented us with an elegant railway atlas, issued by the traffic department of his road, to be used as an advertisement. It contains thirty-four pages of maps and reading matter, along with the latest data covering all matters of interest connected with each place through which their road runs. There are splendid maps of the United States and of each of the States and Territories in which their road does most business. There are also interesting diagrams showing the elevations encountered on each of the sections of the main lines. The work is highly creditable to the company. One of the best enterprises in this county is the ostrich farm, which is located about three miles north of town. There are now 127 birds of mature age which were plucked a few days ago. The crop of feathers is of excellent quality. From Edward Atherton, the superintendent of the farm, we learned that the feathers find a ready market in San Francisco, where they are sent to be cured. A number of the birds are paired off and placed in separate paddocks about forty feet square, while a herd of them roam about at will in a large corral. The plucking process is a difficult one and a person must use care in handling the birds for fear of being kicked by infuriated ostriches, which would... BARGAINS. BARGAINS.
