LATE NEWS OF THE WEEK. New City Officials Inducted Into Office. What Was Done at Last Monday's Meeting—Our Boys Trounce the Los Angeles Professionals at Baseball—Opening of the Big Olive Siphon—Republican Primaries—Personal. On Monday the new city officers took their seats. The old Board of Trustees met at 2 o'clock. The President, after the meeting had been called to order and was ready for business, stated that Mr. Goodale had made complaint to him that his ditch on Broadway had been taken away by authority of the board, and being ready to irrigate, he asked for relief. No action was taken, on account of the matter not being properly presented. Probably the matter will be called up at the next meeting of the board, when Mr. Goodale will obtain the desired relief. The Clerk submitted his monthly report, and asked the board to transfer $1,765 06 from the Street Fund to the General Fund. Referred to the Finance Committee. Bills to the amount of $222 52 were audited and ordered paid. The question of Mr. Grimshaw's supplying water to residents of his neighborhood was discussed, and referred to the next regular meeting. There being no further business, the board proceeded to organize the new Board of Trustees. A vote of thanks was tendered Trustee Reiser, the retiring member, for his faithful services during the last four years as President of the board. In a few appropriate remarks Mr. Reiser acknowledged the courtesy of the board. Mr. Reiser, the retiring Trustee, has served as a member of the board for many years, and is entitled to the thanks of the people for his disinterested services freely given them at all times. He has been vigilant, painstaking and active in city affairs, and retires to private life after his years of public service in the full possession of the confidence and esteem of the people. The Clerk called the new board to order, and presented the oath of office of Trustees Pollegrin, Rust and Littlefield, Clerk Nebelung, Treasurer James and Marshal Steadman. The new trustees having duly qualified, they took their seats on the board. relative to the transfer of their water rights, ditches, etc., to the district. The attorneys of both parties—Wilson & Lamme for the district and E. E. Keech for the Yorbas—were instructed to prepare a draft of an agreement for the purchase of the Yorba water rights, ditches, etc., the same to be presented to the next meeting of the board, which will be held on Saturday, April 30. The Auditing Committee were instructed to examine all the tax titles now held by the district, and to fix the value of the same, with a view of offering them for sale. The recent decision of the Supreme Court in reference to the manner of levying taxes was discussed. A letter was received from Judge Rhodes, stating that the matter would probably be called up for a rehearing, when the question at issue would be more exhaustively argued, and probably a satisfactory decision reached. A synopsis of the decision will be found printed upon the first page. After a discussion of matters of minor importance the board adjourned until the 30th. THE NATIONAL GAME OUR BOYS BEAT THE TEXAS LEAGUERS FROM LOS ANGELES. The Los Angeles ball tossers met with their third straight defeat at the hands of our gilt-adged aggregation of ball players last Sunday by the scores of 15 to 6. The principal feature of the game was the inability of the visitors to play ball. Mr. Morley, the pool player, who guarded the initial for them, broke the record, piling up nine errors out of eleven chances. Mr. Morley became excited once, and declared he could lick any man of his size in the crowd. His offer was not taken up, because there was no one light enough to tackle him. Mr. Morley weighs about 75 pounds. He may be the best pool player in Southern California, but as a ball player he's not an astonishing success. The visitors had "Skip" Ross, the southpaw, staked out in the pitcher's box, and the kindly way in which our boys took to his curves was a caution. "Skip" volunteered the information during the afternoon that he had a $250 per month job staring him in the face, and was sorry for the way the boys were hitting him. We haven't the remotest notion what the job may be, but expect it must be tending the grand stand at the ball grounds over in Los Angeles. Then there was a little man enveloped in an old-gold jag, who came down with the Los Angeles team and who said he used to play ball with the mighty Glenalvin up in the northern woods before Glen came out of the wilderness. This little man desired to place a small wager on the Los Angeles team. He was accommodated by Billy Kleine. -Julius Schneider taking the assessment -Get an invitation?

The bonds of Clerk Nebelung, Marshal Steadman and Treasurer James were received and approved. Judge Pierce was re-elected Recorder for the enaing term. The following committees were appointed by the President: Finance—Pellegrin, Littlefield and Rust. Public Improvements—Schindler, Littlefield and Rust. Ordinance—Rust, Pollegrin and Littlefield. Adjourned to next regular meeting. The Olive Siphon. All roads led to Olive last Thursday. On the crest of the hill near the big siphon, and in the near vicinity, three hundred vehicles had gathered, and the crowd in attendance could not have been far from 2,500 people. A stream of carriages between this point and Olive raised the dust in clouds on the way over, but the travelers were a jolly set, and did not mind the discomfort, for they knew the milling company had a hand in the entertainment, and that a royal good time awaited them once they arrived at the siphon. People from all over the county were on hand to attend the celebration consequent upon turning water into the siphon. An excursion was run over the kite-shaped track from Los Angeles, and among the distinguished visitors were Mayor Hazard and other Angel City notables. An immense pavilion had been erected on the hill near the siphon; and four tables extending from one end to the other literally groused under their weight of good things. Shortly after noon a thousand people sat down to lunch, after which speeches were made by Mayor Hazard and others. While the pavilion was filled with a merry party a number of Supervisor Sehorn's friends invaded his residence near by and helped themselves to everything in sight in the shape of edibles. The worthy gentleman came near being eaten out of house and home, for among the invaders was at least one newspaper man. We won't give the others away. After lunch all hands went over to the big siphon. The canal and conduit have each a capacity of sixty heads of water, or 6,000 inches. The main canal begins eight miles above the siphon, in the mountains along the Santa Ana river. It is an open cement canal, 5 feet deep, 11 feet at the bottom and 25 feet at the top. The siphon is 724 feet from end to end, and is six feet nine inches in the clear in diameter. The company's ditches and private ditches below the siphon measure more than 100 miles. A large party of ladies and gentlemen walked through the siphon. In fast people passed through it almost uninterrupted during the morning hours. At half past 2 o'clock the water was turned in and a great kindly way in which our boys took to his curves was a caution. "Skip" volunteered the information during the afternoon that he had a $250 per month job staring him in the face, and was sorry for the way the boys were hitting him. We haven't the remotest notion what the job may be, but expect it must be tending the grand stand at the ball grounds over in Los Angeles. Then there was a little man enveloped in an old-gold jag, who came down with the Los Angeles team and who said he used to play ball with the mighty Glenalvin up in the northern woods before Glen came out of the wilderness. This little man desired to place a small wager on the Los Angeles team. He was accommodated by Billy Carlisle. But he only had fifty cents. And he lost that. For a crowd of ball players the visitors were the "punkest" lot of people ever seen in this city. They were clearly not in it at any stage of the game. They were outbatted, outplayed at every point. If this is the best Los Angeles can do in the baseball line she had better shut up and abandon the business. The first innning was soon over. Mefford struck out, and Koerner was out on first on Skip's easy assist. Magoffin took first on a wee one to short left, but Peters struck out, and the visitors took a turn. Hartley was assisted out at first by Pitcher Mallett, and Britton, who were a Chicago suit, struck out, as did also Mr. Morley, the lean and lauky first baseman. In the second there was a whole lot of trouble. The boys bombarded Skip's delivery all over the field, and before the side was out had scored seven runs, amid great excitement. Twice were the bases filled and twice did safe hits bring in a couple of runs. The boys might have been playing yet, but for a neat double play in which, strange as it may seem, Morley took part. Peters flew to right and Koerner was doubled at first. The locals counted up seven runs, and the visitors took a turn. Moody was out at first on Charley Mallett's rattling running assist, and our old friend Leland struck out. Redman hit one over Magoffin's head for a base, but Arnold retired the side on an easy out at first. In the third the boys scored twice, just to keep their hand in, and in their turn the visitors, strange as it may seem, scored a tally. Mr. Rappold making the circuit. They could do nothing else, except to get Skip around to third, where he was left when the lights went out. The boys evidently thought they weren't safe enough in the lead, for in the fourth innning they scored five runs. It was a repetition of the second innning. Mr. Morley piling up a string of errors bigger than a wad of Wienerwurst. By the way, who ever heard of a first baseman piling up nine errors all in one game? If there is anything on earth worse than that, it can only be a side's banking up fourteen. The locals made one in the fifth, and strange as it may appear, the visitors took one in the sixth. This was the last of the run getting, except the visitors' turn in the ninth—we had almost forgotten that. In this innning Rappold introduced a cracker jack to deep center for a couple of bases, surprising himself. The locals allowed four of the Angels to cross the plate and the game was over, 15 to 6. The visitors were outplayed at every point. They delayed the game by unnecessary kicking, but Umpire Raine held them level.

Edgar Moore,Los Angeles.isgotoaccountsinthewaytothecallupupnext Monday.Mtdefenseandisinformationofthesociety After lunch all hands went over to the big siphon. The canal and conduit have each a capacity of sixty heads of water, or 6,000 inches. The main canal begins eight miles above the siphon, in the mountains along the Santa Ana river. It is an open cement canal, 5 feet deep, 11 feet at the bottom and 26 feet at the top. The siphon is 724 feet from end to end, and is six feet nine inches in the clear in diameter. The company’s ditches and private ditches below the siphon measure more than 100 miles. A large party of ladies and gentlemen walked through the siphon. In fast people passed through it almost uninterruptedly during the morning hours. At half past 2 o’clock the water was turned in and a great shout went up from the crowd gathered on the sides of the canal as the water appeared at the lower end of the siphon. The water rose rapidly in the siphon, and in a short time was within a foot of the top. The great ditch carried an immense volume of water and was filled almost to its utmost capacity. It was the first time water had been turned into it in over forty days. The crowd then went down to the Olive mill, when the turbine wheels were set in motion. During the time of the shut off in the water supply the mill has been run by steam. The visitors overran the premises, and Messrs. Small and Schorn had their hands full in answering questions and showing the people about. Many had never been there before, and they were very inquisitive about the different parts of the machinery in the mill. The crowd was well entertained and well repaid for their visit. The day’s celebration was one long to be remembered. The large crowd in attendance was well taken care of, and the water company and Olive Milling Company must be given great credit for the excellent entertainment furnished. The opening of the siphon marks an era in irrigation matters in this valley, and it will stand for years a living testimonial to the energy and enterprise of its projectors. H. C. Kellogg was the engineer in charge of the work, and to him great credit is due for the excellent manner in which the work was carried out. Mr. Kellogg has done a particularly fine piece of work, and is to be congratulated upon his achievement. As a mining and hydraulic engineer he is second to none in the country. Irrigation District. The Board of Directors of the irrigation district met in special session on Monday. Present, Chairman Korn, and Directors Porter, Crowther and Stadtegger. Absent, Director Ryan. The principal topic of discussion was in regard to the agreement to be entered into between the district and the Yorba irrigators PICKUPS AND THROWS. Fifteen to six! Oh me, oh me, oh my! Wonder what that $250 job of Skip’s is? Ever talk through your hat, Skip? Yes? There was too much smoke on the diamond for Skip, and he proved a “puddling” for our sluggers, yes. Morley says he once played seventeen games without an error. Must have feed the scorer, or been playing pool. See? The boys have a challenge from Pomona, and will probably play them next Sunday. Bring forth the Murebison lads, and let them be conducted to the slaughter. Lalande went behind the bat in place of Rappeld—the accent on the pold—directly after the bombardment in the fourth. Lole is a good one, even if he did look sick after the game. Windy Mr. Rappold—accent on the pold—runs a sausage manufacturing establishment in Los Angeles, and has his name blown in on the covers. But he can’t play ball. Boom-do-ray. BASEBALL CHANK.

Julius Schneider is kept busy these days taking the assessment. Get an invitation to the ball last night? No? Weren't you "in it?" Well, you are unlucky! Prof. Frantz has disposed of his stock of hardware to Clarence Groat. He made $65 on the bargain. We are enjoying lovely weather, but a little rain about this time. Mr. Weather Clerk, would not come amiss. Work on the City Hall building is being pushed rapidly ahead, and by the end of this week the first story will be completed. John Schaumann is having some of his patented orchard cultivators made, and will soon have them introduced into the market. We are indebted to Prof. Newton B. Pierce for a copy of his pamphlet regarding the "Discases of Almond Trees," published by the Government. Manager Pellegrin informs us that there will be no more shows at the Opera-house this summer. He has some very fine attractions booked for the winter. The petition in voluntary assignment in the insolvency case of M. H. Dunn of Fullerton was presented to the Suirior Court on Monday. He plead not guilty, and his trial was set for April 27th. The case of McKinney vs. Schumacher, an action to recover on a note, occupied Judge Pierce's attention on Saturday. Testimony was introduced and arguments will follow later on. The case against the heathen Ah Koy, charged with malicious mischief in tampering with the ditches of the water company, was dismissed by Justice Landell on Monday for want of jurisdiction. R. L. Cook of San Bernardino is putting down an artesian well for Mr. Duacan, opposite Tim Carroll's big well below town. The well is down about 300 feet, and will be put down 200 feet deeper. Miss Jettie Arthur's assembly has been pastpounded until the evening of May 6th. Her assembly at Santa Ana occurs next Monday evening. The indications are that both will be largely engaged and very enjoyable affairs. is attributed to gross negligence and carelessness on the part of those having charge of the train. The injured woman and her husband, P. H. Look, have filed a complaint against the Southern Pacific Company to recover $3,500 expended for medical attendance and $50,000 damages. The Strong Company has bought the orange crops of L. W. Kirby, W. J. Smith and J. S. French. The fruit is of exceptionally fine quality. We are informed that the owner of a place in this city who purchased it a little over a year ago for $14,000 refused $20,000 for the premises one day last week. Who says our real estate is not advancing? The premises formerly occupied by Lan'lord Helmsen, two doors below the main entrance to the office of this influential family newspaper, are being fitted up and renovated for Dr. Hunt's drugstore, which will be moved there shortly. Painters Middleham, Albertson and Williams report business rushing these days. They have been touching up Federman's building, and will paint and paper Dr. Hunt's drugstore. They are doing the jobs up in the highest style of the art. A subscriber informs us that the best way to keep birds out of trees is to hang pieces of looking glass suspended from the branches so that the sunlight may be reflected as the glass swings to and fro. The reflection frightens the birds away, and a great saving in fruit results. The crop report for the past week issued by the State Agricultural Society, shows that the cool weather of the past week has been advantageous for all crops. More rain is needed in Southern California for the hay and grain crops, and warm sunshine is required in the foothill country. Mr. Krueger informs us that he has just received two hundred pounds of beet seed from Germany, and will be pleased to distribute quantities of the same, at cost price, among farmers desirous of trying their hand at beet raising. Already many parcels have been distributed, and there is a plenty of seed on hand to supply all. Call on him at his place on Orangesthorpe avenue, and get some seed and see what your land will do in beet raising. A tax-payer mentions the fact that the salary of City Marshal should be raised to what it was before being reduced to $10 per month in order to secure the resignation of a Marshal years ago. The salary before that time had been $25 per month. Ten dollars is certainly a very low salary for the Marshal of a city of this size, and the suggestion of our friend the tax-payer is respecfully referred to the honorable Board of City Personnel. H.D. Polhemus mayor of Miraflores, was in town yesterday. Mrs.W.H.Avery of Riverside visited with Mrs.Bocher during the week. W.A.Witte and Fritz Ruhmann drove up to the Black Star coal mine yesterday. Fred Baron, an experienced mixologist has accepted a position at Fritz's.

Herman Dickel returned on Tuesday from his trip to the Grand Lodge of the A.O.U.W., held last week in San Francisco. This was his first trip to the metropolis of the coast, and he enjoyed his trip immensely. The case against the heathen Ah Koy, charged with malicious mischief in attempting with the ditches of the water company, was dismissed by Justice Landell on Monday for want of juridiction. R. L. Cook of San Bernardino is putting down an artesian well for Mr. Duncan, opposite Tim Carroll's big well below town. The well is down about 300 feet, and will be put down 200 feet deeper. Miss Jettie Arthur's assembly has been postponed until the evening of May 6th. Her assembly at Santa Ana occurs next Monday evening. The indications are that both will belargely attended and very enjoyable affairs. Marshal Steadman has assumed the duties of his office and already has his eagle eye out for all classes of evil doers. At this writing he hasn't made an arrest, but he began the administration of his office yesterday by giving the jail a thorough scrubbing out. Jack Hunter is abipping fertilizer to Ontario. He gets $35 per 100 cubic feet, and still has over 100 cars lying around loose in the old corrals about the valley. Jack is making a big speculation in the business. Easter services were conducted in all the churches on Sunday. The churches were beautifully decorated with flowers and evergreens, and the impressive services were listened to by large congregations. We are glad to learn that our friend Tim Carroll is able to get about the house, and that he will soon be as well as ever again. Tim has had a siege of it with his broken knee, but is now well on the read to recovery. James Sharp, aged forty, who had the bad luck to steal half a sack of flour from Cheeseman's store last Monday, and who threatened the proprietor when detected, was given ten days in the county jail for his foolishness. Judge Landell yesterday united Juan Malendreis, aged 63, to Locuena Garcia, aged 55, in the holy bonds of matrimony. Only a select coterie of friends were present, and the affairs went off with neatness and dispatch. No cards. Letters for the following persons remain uncleared for at the Postoffice: J. S. Borden, John Brown, James Hunting, John Johnson (registered), Wm. W. Koepp, D. O. Larenson, Miss Etta L. Moore, X. Y. Z. Stephen, S. Weill, H. A. Young.

Dr. Pfeninger was fined $20 by Justice A tax-payer mentions the fact that the salary of City Marshal should be raised to what it was before being reduced to $10 per month in order to secure the resignation of a Marshal years ago. The salary before that time had been $25 per month. Ten dollars is certainly a very low salary for the Marshal of a city of this size, and the suggestion of our tax-payer is respectfully referred to the honorable the Board of City Trustees. W. Frank Moore, who traded his property here for land in Kern county some two years ago, and went north since which time his whereabouts have been unknown, has returned and was in town on Saturday. At one time it was feared that he had been fully dealt with, but we are pleased to say the fear was entirely groundless. Mr. Moore is enjoying the best of health, and is at present engaged in teaching the school at Peralta. Commissioner Perry received a colony of the vedalia cardinalis from Prof. Coquillott one day last week for an orchard at Orange thorea where a sprinkling of the white scale had myristiorally appeared. The vedalia were put to work upon the ponds, and in a short time had them entirely destroyed. It is thought the scale were carried into the orchard by birds probably from the San Gabriel valley. Our orchardists have been singularly free from these pests, and it is safe to say they will never find a lodgement here. The Hebrew Passach, or the feast of the noleaven bread, which ended last Tuesday evening, last eight days, the first and last two days being high festivals, while the intervening four days are distinguished by dietary observations generally and morning and evening services souffled to the orthodox faction of the faith only. The closing days of the feast are of equal religious import as the first two days. Israelites may now again partake of leavened bread and ordinary food, which is prohibited during the Passover. The following names have been drawn as term trial jurors in the Superior Court and are ordered to appear in Court on Monday next: Sylvanus Smith, Edward M. Ambrose, Wm. McKinsey, Fred Kremple, J.

House and his wife Elvira of Buena Park have filed suit in the office of the County Cleik of Los Angeles against Marius Meyer, the well-known wealthy sheep man, for $10,000 damages. Mr. and Mrs. House allege that while driving along the public highway near Buena Park on January 24th last, the defendant came up behind him, driving in a two-horse wagon, and attempted to pass them. They were in a buggy with their daughter, and Meyer failing to pass them, drove over the buggy, wrecking the same and throwing occupants to the ground. As a consequence Allico Hall Last Night The calico ball given by the young ladies committeeman from this prescript for the People's party; Joshua Wallace has been selected for Fullerton and T. J.

Dr. Pfeinger was fined $20 by Justice Landell last week for tampering with the water company's ditches. The Doctor will take an appeal to the Superior Court, and declares he will carry the case up to the Supreme Court rather than pay the fine, which he claims is not "square." Sam Finley's horse and buggy were taken from the hitching post in front of Dickel's store last Sunday night. The rig was traced to the south of town, where the trail was lost. The next morning the horse came home with the harness on, having evidently been unhitched and turned loose. The buggy has not yet been found. At the next meeting of the California Pomological Society, to be held at Redlands the first Thursday and Friday in May, Prof. Pierce, the Government expert who investigated the mysterious vine disease, will furnish a paper on the "Cryptogamic Diseases of Trees and Vines." Special efforts will be taken by the Redlands committee to make the meeting an interesting one to practical horticulturists. The Mongolian Jimmy Craig, who peddles vegetables in town and whose gardens are down on the post lands below Westminster, sustained a serious loss one evening last week in the destruction of his barns, sheds and buildings by fire. He had been away all day peddling vegetables, and returned home after dark to find his houses a mass of amouldering ruins. A lamp explosion was the cause of it all. Jimmy loses several hundred dollars, but is determined to rebuild and make himself comfortable. The following from a San Francisco paper will be read with interest by old friends of Mr. and Mrs. Look, who formerly resided here: Mrs. Mary E. Look was a passenger on a train of cars from Alameda Wharf to Oakland on the 30th of May, 1890, when the train was suddenly stopped and she was thrown from her seat with such force that the thigh bone of her right leg was broken, three rib fractured, one of which penetrated her lung, and her sight impaired. The accident Thomas J. House and his wife Elvira of Buena Park have filed suit in the office of the County Clerk of Los Angeles against Marius Meyer, the well-known wealthy sheep man, for $10,000 damages. Mr. and Mrs. House allege that while driving along the public highway near Buena Park on January 24th last, the defendant came up behind them, driving in a two-horse wagon, and attempted to pass them. They were in a buggy with their daughter, and Meyer, failing to pass them, drove over the buggy, wrecking the same and throwing the occupants to the ground. As a consequence Mrs. House was stunned and sustained serious injuries of a permanent character. Hence the suit for $10,000. C. C. Stephens of Los Angeles is the attorney for the plaintiffs.
