LATE NEWS OF THE WEEK. Mons of the Irrigation District in Council First Regular Meeting of the Month Preliminary Work on the District to Begin at Once Another Letter from the Lawyers School Trustee Election Denth from a Hattler's Site Threw a Bech through a church Window - Convent Pupile Picnic at Santiago - Progressive Hermite Supervisors The Board of Directors of the Anabeim irrigation District met in their office on Tuesday at 11 o'clock, an hour later than usual time. Director Crowther sent a letter from Placentia that his attention was engrossed in the school-trustee fight at its place, and that he could not be in town an hour before noon. Shortly before 11 he put in an appearance with the other members of the board, who had been on hand since 10 o'clock, were ready to begin work at once. President Crowther called the meeting to order, and Secretary Gardiner started the ball rolling by reading the minutes of the last meeting. The minutes were approved as read, and then the board listened to the reports of the Trustee and Treasurer. The former reported a collection of $29,23 during the month and the latter reported as follows: Los Angeles, May 15, 1890. S. Gardiner, Exp., Secretary Anabeim District - DEAR SIR: Your favor May 14th, together with enclosure for KS 85, duly received and contents noted. Many thanks for the same. You misunderstood the purport of our letter, I think. Because we were really employed, except on one particular matter, the proposition was made to take this case on a specified sum, including the Supreme Court. At that time we were advised that no unnecessary obstacle would be placed in our way by the other himself immediately upon the receipt of the letter, and that the three had decided to retain the lawyers to carry the case through the Supreme Court for $250. The action was ratified by the board. Director Spencer called the attention of the board to a slight technicality in the bond of the Trustee of the district, and asked that it be remedied. The irregularity runs in fact that the Trustee's first hand, containing among others the names of Backa Bron, and Pallegrin & Son as witnesses, had been returned to him for correction, in that no firm name can lawfully be accepted as a surety upon a bond of this sort. Subsequently the firm names referred to were changed to the name of one individual partner in each concern. Director Spencer desired to know whether each of the latter gentlemen had requalified before a notary. If they had not the bond was illegal. The Secretary was instructed to ascertain the status of the case and report at the next meeting. No apprehension was felt by the board as to the safety of the district's funds, but there was a weight resting upon them, it was thought, and the technicality was ordered to be investigated and righted. He jocularly suggested that one of the reasons why each Director was compelled to give such a large bond himself might possibly be because they might themselves be liable for any shortage of an official of the district, if by their negligence that official's bond was found to have been improperly passed upon and approved by the board. Director Crowther differed from Mr. Spencer and thought the reason why each Director was compelled to give such heavy bonds was for the reason that they were responsible principally for the proper expenditure of the district's funds. "We are not to build a schoolhouse at Bolas, nor build a narrow-gauge railroad to Los Angeles." His keen insight into this part of the board's affairs met with ready commendation. Mr. Crowther also spoke in favor of giving work to local men, who have teams which they are willing to put to work from one to three months in the preliminary work of the district. It was the sense of the board that all work on the district be let out to home contractors, if the work can be satisfactorily done, rather than advertise for bids from outside parties. The Treasurer was requested to furnish itemized statements of expenditures, as required by law. Copies of the Wright bill will be furnished residents of the district on application at the district. Bills were read, approved and ordered paid as follows: G. Foster, recording one certificate of sale of deprived stock A. E. Cadman, May salary J. S. Gardiner, May salary bill book, $2 envelopes and stamps, $5 cents H. Wrecke, conferring with Brandon, Wilson & Lamue, $250 mileage, $175 PERSONAL MELANE Mammus Broadhead and Burgmann Ann Free Press were over your flying business visit. Miss Lala James, daughter of Miss P. James of the Bank, is here summer vacation from college. Mrs. M. Herrick and two children mix, A. T., are visiting at the ranch H. D. Palheman. They contemplate summer here. Mr. and Mrs. Herring of Kansas who have been adjourning hours weeks past, departed for their Monday. Mr. Herring is in point the sheep which are being shipped point to Kansas City and Chicago & Everhardy. Mrs. Belle Dorsey and Miss Lorraine Jeffersonville, Indiana, nieces of P are on a visit here. The ladies cycles that devastated Louisville city some months ago, the house they resided being blown down probably remain in a lengthy stay. H. Hayward, who lives near eastern Pacific depot, was called to days ago to see a sick son who is ill with consumption. He will visit places in the East and will dispose Nebraska before his return. He will him some nice oranges, lemons and dried fruits. A Narrow Escape What might have been a serious fatal accident was averted on afternoon by great presence of min part of L. W. Kirby of Yorba, who to cross the Southern Pacific railroad at the Aguilar crossing, south of To driving in his carriage and hadily and Mrs. A. Rimpan with him just about to drive upon the track gine of the north-bound passenger not twenty feet away, and the next train dashed by. The horse ww from overturning the carriage only greatest effort on the part of Mr The escape was most providential. The Southern Pacific engineers show longer whistles when approaching to the south. There are several crossings, and the narrow escape Kirby and his family should be most at any time. The suggestion that the S. P. engineers follow the set by Engineer Gamble of the S.C. musical and long-drawn-oot tool is less a thing of beauty, and is as use under the head of communications the secretary read the following letter from the attorneys of the district, previously referred in these columns: Los Angeles, May 15, 1890. S. Gardiner, Eaq, Secretary Anheim District Dear Sir: Your favor May 14th, together with enclosure for 85, duly received and contents noted. Many thanks for the same. You misunderstand the purpose of our letter, I think. Because we were really employed, except on one particular matter, the proposition was made to take this case on a specified sum, including the Supreme Court. At that time we were advised that no unnecessary obstacle would be placed in our way by the other state or in other words, that we would make an agreed statement of the facts upon all matters which we could prove. With that understanding, we offered to take the case for the sum of $1,000, but that of course included nothing outside of that. The board did not see fit to accept the proposition, but agreed to pay us what our services would be worth, but immediately discovered afterwards that we were compelled to do at least three times the work that we had any idea would be required. We have done that, and besides have advised the board on various matters connected with the dispute, all of which was encumbered upon them of course to take legal advice from some source. The bulk of the work in the case will have been done when the case gets into the Supreme Court. The first thing now to do is to settle the statement on motion for a new trial as soon as we are served with the proposed statement. The next will be to argue the motion for a new trial in the Court below, and if that be denied, as we have every reason to believe, that it will then they will appeal that to the Supreme Court, while the fee that we shall charge you this case is not as large as it would have been had we known what we were to contend with, still we believe it is a fair compensation for the services performed and that that the money which we have now received will pay all of the services rendered to be rendered in this district, including the settlement of the statement on motion for a new trial, arguing that motion and settlement of the statement on appeal. When the statement on appeal is filed in the Supreme Court, unless we are employed in the meantime by the year, we shall charge you a further sum of $250, which will include everything in the suit including the argument before the Supreme Court, except the cost of printing our brief, which you will be required to pay. This is much less than what the compensation usually required for such services, but under the circumstances, will satisfy us. There is nothing for you gentlemen to do further in the case; of course everything will be attended to now by us; that is if this proposition is accepted. The reason that we called your attention to it particularly at this time was that the Board has been changed, we had no communication with them, were not aware whether our services would be required or not, and it would be absolutely necessary for either ourselves or some one else to attend to this motion for a new trial. Of course if we are to be continued in this matter, we shall attend to everything and nothing further shall be required of you. If any one else shall be submitted in our stead, we shall give them all the information which we possess and turn the papers over to them. You ask what amount we should require to be retained by the board by the year. We have thought the matter over, considered the amount involved, the absolute necessity of having all of your orders, resolutions, etc., in proper form before they are outside parties. The Treasurer was requested to furnish itemized statements of expenditures, as required by law. Copies of the Wright bill will be furnished residents of the district on application at the district. Bills were read, approved and ordered paid as follows: G. Foster, recording one certificate of sale of delinquent stock A. E. Cairn, May salary J. S. Gardiner, May salary M. Billack, B2 envelopes and envelope R. Melrose, paint for May and June H. Wrele, conferring with Bradshaw, Wilson & Lamuee #201 mileage #135 Tota. The Secretary informed the board that he had instructed S. A. Dannia to paint the sign "Office of Anaheim Irrigation District" on the windows of the new Backs building; where the sessions of the board are to be held in future. The action was approved. Director Spencer then spoke in favor of inaugurating the preliminary work of the district at once. He had no doubt as to the ultimate outcome of the district's case, now about to be taken to the Supreme Court. Every step taken now would be so much less to be done hereafter. As Engineer Kellogg had received an offer to go elsewhere, he suggested that some assurance be given him that work in the contour lines and other preliminary labor would begin at once. After a general discussion of the subject Mr. Kellogg was ordered to proceed at once to make his preliminary surveys, and the board adjourned to the first Tuesday in July. Picnic at the Canyon A number of the pupils of St. Catherine's Academy, with Miss Ida Everhardy and Miss Clemmie Schmidt as guardians, went on a little picnic to the Santiago canyon on last Saturday. They hired a four-hour coach with F. L. Lewis as driver. When about half way to the picnic grounds it began to rain, and they all became slightly wet and cold, but their spirits were not dampened in the least. On reaching the canyon, to their great surprise they found a little vacant house, and on entering found a grate in which they built a fire and soon had coffee boiling. About half past eleven the table was set with all the dafties imaginable, and at 1 o'clock the weather cleared up and the party went to the picnic grounds, where a swing was put up and all were delighted in swinging "Mamma Schmidt and Grandma Everhardy." About an hour before returning home the coach was decorated with wild flowers and ferns, and then after a day well spent in fun party returned home. Those present were Miss Clemmie Schmidt and Miss Ida Everhardy, Cora Lewis, Hortense Yorba, Beatrice Smythe, Anne Everhardy, Mary Rimpan, Mable Langenberger, Bessie Schubert, Frances Dauer, Theresa Knapke, Anna Knapke, Lucetia Richards, Jessie Melrose, Jacob Everhardy, David Smythe, Fred Backs, Fred Lewis, Gussie Langenberger and Henry Knapke. Memorial Day Memorial Day was observed here last Thursday by a parade of the military and Malvern Hill Post, G. A. R., followed by members of the Woman's Relief Corps in carriages, a bay of pretty little girls dressed in white seated in a large wagon, the choir, and citizens in carriages. The military boys marched with precision with arms raised. We have been requested to warn pigs by not to attempt to cross the range wagons in progress. There is abundant rewiring teams to remain out of harm's way being in the roads. Last Sunday the alarm was interrupted once or twice by coming in dangerous proximity to the Travelers should be careful and remain of harm's way. Threw a Rock Through a Window While services were being conducted by Methodist Church on Friday some evil-minded person on the north end of the church. One gentleman passing along the sidewalk by the crash, and heard footsteps from the church into Cantar street. It not be discovered in the dark who they were, but they were seen to run along east side of Dennia's paint shop and toward schoolhouse. It was ascended next day who culprits were pastor of Methodist Church refusing prosecute the window breakers; however so their names are not made public. As soon as the commotion within church subsided after the rock came through the window it was announced that the contribution box would be around to collect funds with which to less a thing of beauty, and is as useful ornamental. Target Practice. Sunday afternoon a squad of Company G repaired to the range town and competed for the gold medals by Captain Wood to best mark company. The medal is to be worn times to be permanently retained holder. Sergeant Krosger won it first competition some months ago. Have you yield it to either Sergeant I or Private Pierotti, they having tied 8 scores with 39 points. Sergeant I himself was a close second with 38 Messrs. Pierotti and Hatfield will wear their tie probably next Sunday. For is this summary: K A. White R Biair J S.Hatfield Wm Krooger Porter O4444444 Wm Frantz K Brownning Pierotti. Wm Berdroos G Alms G Hausman. A Traumas Abbey T Illumhart J Blair A L Lewis Total with them, we not aware whether our services would be required or not, and it would be absolutely necessary for either ourselves or some one else to attend to this motion for a new trial. Of course if we are to be continued in this matter, we shall attend to everything and nothing further shall be required of you. If any one else shall be substituted in our stead, we shall give them all the information which we possess and turn the papers over to them. You ask what amount we should require to be retained by the board by the year. We have thought the matter over, considered the amount involved, the absolute necessity of having all of your orders, resolutions, etc., in proper form before they are passed by the board, that in many instances it will be necessary on the day of your regular meeting to have counsel present to advise and assist you, for the reason that it is much easier to keep a corporation out of trouble than it is to get them out after they have once got in; and further unless your order, resolutions, etc., are absolutely correct you will be constantly involved in litigation; and from all which we will make you this proposition: first, we will take all of your business of every kind, character and description from the 15th day of this month, including the argument of that case in the Supreme Court, for the sum of $200 a month, payable on the first day of each and every month, except condemnation suits, and as to those you shall pay us a reasonable compensation in addition thereto. This will include the attendance of one of our firm upon regular meetings at any time if we receive one or two days' previous notice. And as we have before remarked, if we are to advise you in regard to all of your business and keep the matters of the irrigation district in the condition they should be, this will be absolutely necessary and we should much prefer to go there, to having any errors committed by the board which it might be difficult thereafter to remedy; or if more satisfactory to the board we will agree to take all of their business commencing at that date, including all condemnation suits in addition, both in the lower and in the Supreme Court, for the sum of $5,000 a year, payable in twelve equal installments on the first day of each and every month until the litigation in regard to condemnation is fully completed; thus, if still continued, at the rate of $200 per month as above stated. If neither of those propositions are satisfactory, we shall be pleased to meet and confer with any committee from, or member, or members of the board and see if satisfactory arrangements can be made. Hoping to hear from your as soon as convenient, we are, very truly yours, BRUHON WILSON & LAMKE After the reading of the letter President Korn stated that a conference had been held between Directors Spencer and Greely and Mary Kumpel, Stainte Langenberger, Beasie Schubert, Frances Dauer, Theresa Knapke, Anna Knapke, Lucatria Richards, Jessie Melrose, Jacob Everhardy, David Smythe, Fred Backs, Fred Lewis, Gussie Langenberger and Henry Knapke. Memorial Day Memorial Day was observed here last Thursday by a parade of the military and Malvern Hill Post, G. A. R., followed by the members of the Woman's Relief Corps in carriages, a boy of pretty little girls dressed in white seated in a large wagon, the choir, and citizens in carriages. The military boys marched with precision, with arms reversed, and appeared soldierly and well drilled, as usual. The line of march was from Los Angeles street to Center, to Lemon, and counter-march on Center to the graveyard. At the cemetery the graves of veterans were stwn with flowers. An oration was delivered by Rev. Mr. Elliott. The Anaheim Military Band and Prof. James and chair rendered appropriate selections of music, and a squad of the military fired a parting salute over the graves of the dead. A Nebraska Cyclone. Erwin Barr received the following dispatch yesterday afternoon from John Kuebler, dated York, Nebraska: "Cyclone in Bradshaw. Hotel and town blown down. Come. Answer." The hotel was owned by Mr. Barr, was fully furnished and contained thirty rooms. Mr. Barr's impression is that Mr. Kuebler went to York, eight miles from Bradshaw, for accommodations, as he fears there is nothing left of the latter town. He leaves to day for the scene of the disaster. The School Census. Marshal Landell has completed the school census for the Anaheim School District. There are 514 children between 5 and 17 years of age in the district, of whom 262 are boys and 252 girls. There are also 155 children under 5 years of age. Twenty-eight births occurred during the year. The World Enriched.

When bout to drive upon the track the enfault north-bound passenger whistled entty feet away, and the next second in dashed by. The horses were kept overturning the carriage only by the east effort on the part of Mr. Kirby. Escape was most providential. Southern Pacific engineers should blow whistles when approaching town from south. There are several dangerous ages, and the narrow escape of Mr. and his family should be warning sufthat a disaster may occur alany time. The suggestion is made by S. P. engineers follow the example Engineer Gamble of the S. C., whose and long-drawn-out toot is nothing thing of beauty, and is as useful as it Kleinigcitten Edwin Clark is taking the ominous in Pellerton. A new time table has gone into effect on the Southern California Railroad. It will be found in another column. The annual meeting of stockholders in the Anaheim County Association will be held at Kreuger’s Hall on Saturday afternoon next.

While Victor Schumacher of North Anaheim was on a visit to his sick brother at San Francisco last week, some parties entered his potato patch and made away with a large quantity of potatoes. There is no clow. During the week our people have been regaled with a visit from two salvation army damsels from Santa Ana, who with the aid of several other enthusiasts, have held public revival meetings on the streets during several evenings past. There is a change in D. Heller’s dry-goods advertisement in our columns this morning, to which attention is directed.

Yesterday was the warmest day of the month, the thermometer going up to 92 in the shade. A large prairie fire to the east of Yorba helped to make the weather uncomfortable as a Santa Ana wind did not help matters. In the afternoons our customary sunrise served to moderate the weather. The motion for a new trial in the case of the Anaheim Irrigation District, which was set far hearing on Tuesday of last week and postponed to Saturday last, probably failed to be heard on that day, as nothing has been heard from it for over a week. Our citizens are becoming impatient at the law’s delays. School Trustee Elecstem Considerable interest prevailed in the election for School Trustees on Tuesday. One hundred and seventy-one votes were cast. There were two Trustees to be elected to fill the vacancies caused by the expired term of Dr. Higgins and the resignation of T. A. Darling.

McFadden of Placentia has received the appointment of District Deputy Grand Counsellor, Order of Chosen Friends, for the fortenth district, which embraces Orange county and that part of Los Angeles county lying west of the San Gabriel river. A good appointment. Conrad's brewery began operations last week, the recent accident to the ammonia tank having been repaired. In a few months Conrad will have lager beer for sale, and he claims it will be the equal if not superior to "Philadelphia" lager, the best made in California. That he may succeed in doing so is the hope of all of his friends. Our thanks are due E. K. Collins of San Jose for a box of splendid cherries sent by express, and charges prepaid as that. Collins is one of the lords of creation, very popular with the ladies and is held in high esteem wherever he goes. May his shadow never grow less, and when the orange season comes again may he blossom out in these latitudes in all of his old-time glory. Mr. Federman informs us that he cent-templates erecting a brick block on the property purchased by him in the Center tract. The lots adjoin Mrs. Metz's residence on the east and run to the corner of Clandina street. Mr. Federman is one of our progressive citizens and his enterprise will be hailed with satisfaction by all. Next Monday the Board of Supervisors will take up the remonstrances filed with them some months ago against the separation of the office of Tax Collector from that of Sheriff, and Auditor from Recorder. The people are about unanimous on the subject, and the board will do well to yield to their protest and allow the offices to remain as at present. W. A. Witte may be seen, with his census book undar his arm, perambulating the streets nowadays in search of people of every hue and color, it matters not whether they've been felons or convicts, or whether they have a mortgage on their house or farm—if they have one. He is taking the census and will ask a plenty of questions. Look out for him.

He died on Friday afternoon at 1 o'clock, after having been under the influence of morphine for twenty hours, during which time it was impossible to arouse him from his unconsciousness. The unfortunate youth, when returning from school on Thursday evening, was playing in the street with a companion and was backing away from the latter as both proceeded toward their homes. Suddenly he stepped upon the rattler, which lay coiled near the edge of the road, and was bitten in the great toe of his left foot. He ran to the residence of Mrs. Thomas Dunn, at Fairview, and was given brandy freely. Dr. Hardin was sent for. When he arrived the boy was writhing in excruciating pain. The doctor gave him an eighth of a grain of morphine. He sank into a sleep from which he never revived. On Friday a galvanic battery was used in the endeavor to awaken him, but all to no purpose. He died at 1 o'clock on Friday and was buried on Saturday afternoon at 2. The remains were followed to grave by a large concourse of sorrowing friends. Card of Thanks. W. J.
