EVENTS OF THE WEEK. Heavy Rains Cause the River to Overflow. Damage to the Bridge Apparition at Olive—A Large Storm of Country swept by the Water—An Alarm Traveller-Matthay Attractions Mainfall-Board of Supervision. The heavy rains of the recent storm brought down such a volume of water in the river that an overflow resulted, and on Monday it was believed that serious results would follow in consequence. The water flowed in torrents to the east of town and came down as near as the old Otinda railroad grade, where it flowed down as far as Mr. Reese's place and for a time threatened serious damage. A woman and her children living near the Santa Fe crossing on South street are reported as having had a narrow escape from drowning on Monday. By the prompt assistance of a gang of section men, who were fortunately working near by, the family was saved. On Tuesday morning Dr. Gardiner and Louis Schorn proceeded to the Olive bridge and in returning to town barely escaped with their team and possibly their lives. The horses plunged into a madhee tea feet deep, and the Doctor, in attempting to cut the traces to free the animals, was himself plunged into the mire, and it was some minutes before a safe landing was made. While at the bridge the water in the river flowed by in such torrents that the approach to the bridge was almost washed away. To repair the damage will necessitate many days of labor and the expenditure of a considerable sum of money. There is danger that another overflow of the river will result in serious loss to this neighborhood. The high water recalls the flood times of early days. Vigorous action will be taken to prevent a flood. The attempt to secure aid from the Supervisors was unsuccessful, as the board were disclined to set a precedent in the case. A meeting of citizens was arranged for to be held on Tuesday evening, but not a sufficient number of people were present to transmit business, and the matter was postponed to yesterday afternoon, when the attention of the City Trustees was called to the necessity of taking immediate steps to protect property. RETURNED FROM ALASKA. There is danger that another overflow of the river will result in serious loss to this neighborhood. The high water recalls the final times of early days. Vigorous action will be taken to prevent a flood. The attempt to secure aid from the Supervisors was unsuccessful, as the board were disinclined to set a precedent in the case. A meeting of citizens was arranged for to be held on Tuesday evening, but not a sufficient number of people were present to transmit business, and the matter was postponed to yesterday afternoon, when the attention of the City Trustees was called to the necessity of taking immediate steps to protect property. RETURNED FROM ALASKA. An Old-Time Amphitheater Back from the Land of Baina. Nicholas Gray, twelve years ago a resident of Anahaim, and for ten years past a denizen of Alaska, where he is in the employ of the Alaska Fur Company, is in town after an absence of eleven years. Nicholas spent his school days in Anahaim and has many friends here. He is on a ten months' furlough and expects to return to the north in May. He resides at St. Paul Island, situated north of the Alaskan group, 1,600 miles from Sitka, and is engaged in the business of seal hunting. His fur company is allowed by the Government to kill 100,000 seals annually, for which the company pays a subsidy of $375,000 a year. The skins are shipped to London, where they are cured and turned into wearing apparel. The people of St. Paul Island have communication with the outside world only twice a year. There are 213 natives on the island, of whom fifty are buck Alanta, who abstain mainly by their contracts for real skinning, receiving $34,000 annually for their labor. These bucks, so Niobolas says, are great poker players and prolong their anguish wrestling with jask pots and the other festive intracacies of the game. The women residents of St. Paul are gossipers (of course), so our informant adds, and may occasionally be seen talking about what Mrs. Grundy says in regard to the manner Mrs. Sloyd up her back hair, or as to the unpublished facts of the latest thrashing which another Alantie madame has sustained at the hands of her august husband. At dances, and these far-away islanders have balls and parties galore, the younger ladies of the Alantie society whisplendent in milks and maids, with numerous ornaments of one order and another. Some of these young women are extremely good-looking, and thus St. Paul dancers are always a success, for the young seminarians act as magnets in drawing the robust young men of the fur company and the Treasury agents to the some of the fundango. It is seldom necessary to punish the natives for infringing the rules and regulations of the island, about the only offense being, as intimated above, when one of the buck Alanta administers a threshing in his wife. Then vigorous measures are taken by the Americans, and the swarthy Alanta is punished by fine or otherwise. The money collected from these fines goes into a fund for the improvement-of-roads and streets. When the Americans received their billiard table some years ago, the native straightway raised money enough to buy one for themselves, and later added a pool table, then much in fashion among the Americans of the island. The natives have a notion that they must pattern after the Americans as far as lies in their power, and when one of the latter appeared with a muscular inrolled book immediately placed himself on record as saying The rain storm which ended on Sunday morning was the heaviest that has been seen here in many years. Rain fell on Wednesday night and continued with alight interruptions until Sunday, when 4.27 inches were recorded for the storm, making the total for the season 10.23 inches. No mail was received here on Sunday or Monday, the trains being unable to make connections. Both the Southern Pacific and Southern California reads sustained serious losses, the bridges at New and Old San Gabriel rivers being impassable and partly washed away. Streets were all but impassable and on Saturday afternoon and evening were worse probably than ever before. The recent drains were a great benefit to some portions of our thoroughfare, but the accumulated rainfall was such that small-sized ferry-boats would have acted like a charm in transporting people up and down and across streets. The rain of Friday afternoon was continuous almost for four hours and old inhabitants say they never saw it rain so heavily and continuously before. Plewing operations have redened and on all sides ground is being broken for crops. No material damage is reported, and the season promises to be best in years. Amusements. The John 8. Murphy company produced "Kerry Gow" at the opera-house on Tuesday evening to a small audience, which saw one of the best performances ever given here Lack of time for advertising and the inclement weather accounted for the small audience present. Murphy, as the Kerry Gow, and Miss Helen Fox in her part were both artistic in their characterization, and the balance of the company is above the average. Last evening the play was repeated to a larger audience. One of the features of the performance is the shoring of a horse on the stage by Murphy. The managers were somewhat puzzled as to the manner of procuring a satisfactory steed. Finally Lewis' large white horse was secured, and taken to the opera-house. He was led up the front stairway without trouble weeks, and is able to get about with the aid of crutches, which it is hoped he will soon be able to throw away. The Captain's accident was sustained in a peculiar manner. On the evening of October 4th he was about to step outside of his residence at Yorba, and as his foot came down upon the lower of the two steps that lead from the door, he felt it touch the form of his dog which was lying upon the step. Desiring to avoid treading upon the dog, the foot was turned to one side, which resulted in fracturing the ankle bone as soon as the weight of the body was thrown upon it. His calls for help soon brought an attendant who in turn was compelled to summon other help before the Captain could be carried to his bed. Dr. Ballard was called, and the wounded limb was attended to. Recovery had progressed so far in six weeks that the Captain was enabled to leave his bed. Business connected with the irrigation district brought him to town on Monday. It is entirely probable that the dismissal of the demurrier against the district by the Superior Court will end the objection to the district on the part of the Yorba. The Captain is very much opposed to the fighting measures employed by some of the people at Yorba, and is cognizant of the fact that the people of the entire valley are disposed to deal in a friendly spirit toward Yorba people. It is to be hoped that he, together with the other Directors of the irrigation district, will be able to so arrange affairs that all delay will be past, and the district put firmly upon its footing. The Rain Storm. The rain storm which ended on Sunday morning was the heaviest that has been seen here in many years. Rain fell on Wednesday night and continued with alight interruptions until Sunday, when 4.27 inches were recorded for the storm, making the total for the season 10.23 inches. No mail was received here on Sunday or Monday, the trains being unable to make connections. Both the Southern Pacific and Southern California reads sustained serious losses, the bridges at New and Old San Gabriel rivers being impassable and partly washed away. Streets were all but impassable and on Saturday afternoon and evening were worse probably than ever before. The recent drains were a great benefit to some portions of our thoroughfare, but the accumulated rainfall was such that small-sized ferry-boats would have acted like a charm in transporting people up and down and across streets. The rain of Friday afternoon was continuous almost for four hours and old inhabitants say they never saw it rain so heavily and continuously before. Plewing operations have redened and on all sides ground is being broken for crops. No material damage is reported, and the season promises to be best in years. The following propositions were for burying indignant dead: F. and J.$18 each and 25 cents millage; Lippa Jones,$17.50 each and 25 cents millage; B.Wash,$17.75 each and 25 cents millage; John R.Fail,$18.50 each and 25 cents millage. All bids were rejected. Bids were opened for furnishing use of the Amamoor, as follows: de Bartxon of Los Angeles, bid No. 2,$720; bid No. 3,$3 per day; Wood of Anahaim,$2,750; DeBaxn far furnishingthe maps atthe costof$720was acceptedwith understandingthat he furnisha mall bondin$250forthe performanceofthe Shariffwinstructedtovictimizedvagranewithnotmoremealsperdayconsistingofamodernplyof breadandwaterwhennotatJ.A WhitakerwasappointedroomerofBenae Parkroaddistrict.

Then vigorous measures are taken by the Americans, and the swarthy Allet is punished by fine or otherwise. The money collected from these fines goes into a fund for the improvement of roads and streets. When the Americans received their billiard table some years ago, the native straightway raised money enough to buy one for themselves, and later added a pool table, then much in fashion among the Americans of the island. The natives have a notion that they must pattern after the Americans as far as lies in their power, and so when one of the latter appeared with a twist, a musically inclined book immediately placed himself on record as saying that he must have one for himself. When the next steamer arrived it brought a miscellaneous consignment of musical instruments, including clarinet, cornet, Siddle, etc., which the native straightway transformed into instruments of torture. The principal industry of those people is seal hunting, which occupies only a few weeks during the year, the balance of the time being given up to the little details which go to make up life in that far-away place. The island is 2,400 miles from San Francisco, and is reached in about seventeen days from the metropolis. Every ship carries provisions, clothing, coal, Hibernia, tobacco and the various other articles which were ordered six months before. Newspapers are largely devoted and everything of interest learned from home and friends by the Americans. The work of unloading the ship is at once begun and when the task is done the heading of the furnishings, and when the vessel sails in a short time, the captain carves a cargo valued at a million and a half dollars, besides innumerable orders for one thing and another which the islanders expect on the return voyage. One of Mr. Gray's standing orders is for 10,000 cigarettes, which, however, although being an inscrutable smoker himself, he does not order for his own use, so frequently, at high altitude landings, as many as three or four hundred cigarettes are presented to the navy, among whom Nicholas must be regarded as a whale-swamper, fully good fellow, as he is at Anahale among those who know him. He is well satisfied with his northern home and it would be hard indeed to keep him from taking the next ship to his northern residence. He has almost outgrown his former self, and in what he used to be years ago a mild-managed and handsome young boy, at whom the agile Allet marries most direct their fondest glances. He has evening to a small audience, which saw one of the best performances ever given here. Lack of time for advancing and the inclement weather accounted for the small audience present. Murphy, as the Kerry Gow, and Miss Helen Fox in her part were both artistic in their characterization, and the balance of the company is above the average. Last evening the play was repeated to a larger audience. One of the features of the performance is the showing of a horse on the stage by Murphy. The managers were somewhat puzzled at to the manner of propping a satisfactory stool. Finally Lewis' large white horse was secured, and taken to the opera-house. He was led up the front stairway without trouble and taken behind the scenes to await his turn. Space was rather at a premium, but the animal was squeezed into his place, where room was no limited that the shifting company grasped his ribs. The horse never displayed the least sign of uneasiness, and when he appeared upon the stage he beaded out his part to perfection. After the performance, however, when he was about to be led out of the hall, he demurred and refused to go. So quarters were filled up for him and he spent the night in the hall, and yesterday was persuaded to be taken back to the stable for his meals. Last night he went through the same performance. Flora Baton will probably be the next attraction at the opera-house. She comes January 6th. More Orange Sales. Several orange sales have occurred during the week. Leonard Parker has disposed of his crop for $2,500 and the Botterford place, at Plantation, has been sold, as a very good price. It is believed that the man paid for one orbard near town will not get greater nearly two dollars per box on the train. Mr. Parker has presented us with several beautiful clusters of the golden fruit, which are large in size and of splendid flavor. His crop of Mediterranean are better than last year, but his manglings and navels are not so splendid. The prize he received for his crop, however, in the same heat season, is more for the orange crop of this valley will go to about $78,000. Mason Whitman. Avery & Everhardly's manslaughter was ended by thirteen on Thursday night, and twenty-five dollars worth of house shaken. The Shariff was instructed to furnish visited vagrats with not more than meals per day, consisting of a modern plow of bread and water when not all J.A. Whitaker was appointed rover of Bea Park road district. Report of County Surveyor on an Trustin and Newport road, accompanied field notes, was received and ordered.

It is understood another demarber filed to state explicitly the points which exception is taken. Latest news on this point is probably no further demurring heard from the Yorbas, and much an announcement will be made to the Directors of the irrigation district, when the water rights of those are acquired; either by purchase demination. Board of Supervisors met at Santa Ana day. Copeland called attention to the fact personal property located in Orange has been attached to lots in Los Anatys, and the Tax Collector in Los county refused to aggregate the perimont the real tax.

The California Teachers' Association meets in its twenty-third annual session at Los Angeles on December 31st and January 1st next. All teachers employed in the Anaheim and adjacent schools contemplate attending. Wm. M. Hounson and Miss Sophie Strickland were married at Fresno, Cal., on Sunday afternoon, December 1. Both parties are well known here. We extend to them our best wishes for a bright and happy future. At the next meeting of Invinolble Parlor, M. S. G. W., Monday evening, nominations will be made for officers to act during the coming year. By actual count it is learned that there are 48 Native Daughters residing here, and it is thought a parlor may be organized among the young ladies in the near future. The propensity of the average thentrical man to split hairs and ask for the most absurd reduction of rains has always been prevalent, but the imbility of nerve was reached one day last week by one of these fry, when he approached Ed Morgan of the Planters cafe, and asked for a reduction of rains on a glass of beer and a cigar. The ladies of the Industrial Society and Cheerful Workers opened their baner in the room adjoining Mrs. Routter's millinery parlors on Tuesday afternoon, and closed last evening with an oyster mapper. A large assortment of fancy articles were upon display, and many sales were made. The proceeds are for the benefit of the church. Collector Cadman failed to receive any taxes at Yorba or Placentia, the weather being so stormy that no one was about. At Fallerton and Fairview collections were better, and on Monday last more money passed over the counter into the coffers of the irrigation district than on any day since its inauguration, the amount going to nearly $900. Col. W. F. Robinson is making quite a warfare on wildents and one of the varmints was sent to graze last week. The animal was traced by a dog, which set up a vigorous harking. The Colonial coming upon the some, a well-aimed rock brought one to the ground, when the dogs dispelled it.

Nightwatchman Hiskey makes hand to my, to the small fragment of our population who read that he had purchased a rubber cost and then paraphrased it away, that the afternoon 75-count rubber coat laundered, and the rain penetrating his clothing to the skin, he thought he'd throw away his afarward rubber cost and give the rain a better chance at his hide.

Grinwald's "Unake Tum's Cabin" company appeared at the Open-house on Saturday evening, their monthly performance having been abounded on account of their late arrival here. The audience was not so huge as it would have been had the weather been pleasant, but the play was enjoyed. The company has a splendid hand, which disseminated music from the hallway of the hotel in the evening, in lieu of the street parade, which had to be given up because of the rains and muddy streets. The hand's enthusiasm is apparent, and a more trend was induced by our citizens in the abandonment of the street parade.
