LATE NEWS OF THE WEEK Interesting Facts About the Sugar Factory. Mr. Dimmock Raises Beets Containing Eighteen Per Cent of Saccharine—Meeting of City Trustees—Republican Meeting—Democratic Meet To-Morrow Evening. A meeting of those interested in the Sugar Beet and Land Company was held at the Commercial Hotel on Monday evening. Mr. Dickel of the committee to solicit subscriptions for the sinking of a well on the forty-acre tract below town to be donated as a site for the refinery, reported that $203.50 had been collected, and that in a day or two a sufficient amount would be subscribed to justify commencing operations on the well. Dr. Paschall and John Schauman were added to the committee to solicit further subscriptions. D. W. C. Dimmock of Westminster was present and stated that the Westminster people are very much in earnest in the matter of the sugar refinery. He had raised some beets on an alkali patch of his land, planting the seed May 7th last, and had just received the report of Wade & Wade of Los Angeles as to their saccharine qualities and purity. The beets contained 18 per cent of saccharine, and 88.92 purity. He was very much elated over the prospect, and thought that on his success alone several hundred acres more could be obtained for best raising in his locality. Every one down at Westminster knew beets could be raised in quantity, but the people were in doubt as to their quality. Now that a satisfactory test had been made he was satisfied that much more interest in the refinery would be taken. He could raise thirty tons of this kind of beets to the acre. The beets would bring $7 per ton, equal to a yield of $210 per acre. Besides this would come in the bounty which would be all of $200 more per acre. In regard to the location of the factory Mr. Dimmock said the Westminster and Garden Grove people are with the people of Anaheim on the proposition. They favor the site selected below the winery. A branch from the Southern Pacific Railroad deflected south from that point would out ability we will have an electric light plant operating here in the near future. The bridge on Broadway, near Los Angeles street, was ordered fixed at once. The Superintendent of electric lights reported in German that seven street lamps failed to work and asked that the same be replaced with new lamps. H. A. Booge was allowed sixteen feet of hose at 30 cents a foot to be used on his sprinkler when drawing water from the hydrants. Engineer Schneider addressed the board in regard to his working hours at the water works since the new sprinkler started. He is kept working from 6 A.M. to 10 or 11 at night in order to pump enough water for our use. He wanted the board to increase their supply or decrease their demand. The old pump takes up sand too rapidly and consequently stops operations and the Engineer wanted the matter remedied. The street sprinkler was instructed to economize with water until new methods for developing water are vogue, and that Sunday sprinkling be stopped for the present. The Chairman was empowered to secure necessary labor to place the new boiler in position at the water works. The following bills were audited and ordered paid: H. W. Chynoweth, legal services ... $17 50 M. Nobelung, salary, etc ... $39 00 Wommer & Halpin, general freight ... $135 00 C. O'Kraffke, salary ... $20 00 Engineer Schneider, same ... $90 00 P.

The Republicans held their first meeting of the campaign in this city at the Opera house last Saturday evening. What the audience lacked in numbers was abundantly made up in the enthusiasm that prevailed. The military band enlisted the occasion with martial music. Coroner My was master of ceremonies. Major McKelvey of Santa Ana was the first speaker. He devoted his attention principally to the tariff. He took occasion to characterize Mr. Scarborough, the Democratic nominee for District Attorney, as a corporation lawyer, and as a good man to vote against. Ever see such a thing? Only nine days ago. The Populites for township owe and cottages at the door. We are sorry for Mrs. B.J. hoped that the lady.

His friend recovery. The Democrat meeting of the camp-to-morrow evening, Los Angeles will add the Democratic candidate to make matters unresolved In regard to the location of the factory Mr. Dimmock said the Westminster and Garden Grove people are with the people of Anaheim on the proposition. They favor the site selected below the winery. A branch from the Southern Pacific Railroad deflected south from that point would out through the Grove and Westminster on its way to its objective point, Long Beach. The people of Westminster want the railroad as bad as the sugar factory, and will take no chances on the railroad leaving them two miles out of its way, which they feel assured will be the case should the site be located on Section 17, north of Ball. Should this latter site be selected—and it is safe to say that it will not be—the Grove and Westminster people may count their prospects for a railroad vanished into thin air. The road will in that event switch southward from the main line a mile north of town, and swinging around to the factory on its run to Long Beach, will leave the Grove and Westminster not less than two miles and a half out of the way. With the site selected below the winery, the road would switch off at that point and touch both the Grove and Westminster at convenient points. That is why Mr. Dimmock says that the people of those sections favor the site selected by the people of this city. Samson Edwards addressed the meeting, saying he rarely went out evenings, and then only on occasions of importance. He had come up with Mr. Dimmock, and they both felt so good over Mr. Dimmock's sugar test that they made the time in about five or eight minutes. Mr. Edwards spoke enthusiastically of the enterprise, and said the Westminster and Grove people were with us on the site question. The meeting adjourned to meet again in Kroeger's Hall last evening, when committees to inspect and purchase land for best raising were appointed. The outlook is that the forty-acre tract below town will be selected as the refinery site. The selection will probably be made by stockholders' vote. The people of the Grove and Westminster being with us, we therefore remain the people. The Directors have called a stockholders' meeting for the 10th of December to vote on the issuance of bonds to erect the refinery. After the placing of the bonds work on the buildings will begin. CITY TRUSTEES THE CITY TO BE LIGHTED WITH ELECTRICITY—BILLS PAID. The Board of Trustees met in regular session in the City Hall on Tuesday evening.

What the audience lacked in numbers was abundantly made up in the enthusiasm that prevailed. The military band enlivened the occasion with martial music. Coroner By was master of ceremonies. Major McKelvey of Santa Ana was the first speaker. He devoted his attention principally to the tariff. He took occasion to characterize Mr. Scarborough, the Democratic nominee for District Attorney, as a corporation lawyer, and as a good man to vote against. He favored the San Francisco Democrat Act, which is a scheme to boodle the people out of $600,000 for the purpose of erecting a palatial depot and ferry house at the foot of Market street in the city of San Francisco. Mr. Seymour of San Bernardino, candidate for joint State Senator, was the next speaker. He delivered an address of about an hour's duration. His speech was a very creditable effort, and was frequently interrupted with applause. After Mr. Seymour's speech the candidates, who occupied seats upon the stage, exhibited themselves and made short addresses as follows: Romulus Quintilian Wickham, the silver-tongued orator of the Groveland Everglades, for the Assembly—No coyote bounty bill! no deputy domination!—followed by Col. Mansur for Treasurer, Col. Brock for County Clerk, Capt. Hall for Auditor, R. L. Freeman for Tax Collector, Mr. Wright for District Attorney, H. C. Kellogg for Surveyor, and the Coroner himself for Coroner and Public Administrator. F. C. Smythe for Sheriff, was introduced and eulogized by Mr. Seymour, but refrained from making any remarks. After the meeting the candidates were entertained by Coroner Ey at his residence. Later they took their departure for their homes. Friday evening they spoke at Fullerton. The Republican rally held at Buena Park last Thursday evening was well attended. Judge Whitaker presided. C. S. McKelvay of Santa Ana briefly addressed the meeting on the Republican issues of the day. Hon. E. C. Seymour, candidate for State Senator, was introduced and addressed his hearers for an hour. R. Q. Wickham, the silver-tongued orator, next appeared and enlightened the people on various matters which he said he would carry into effect in the lower house should be elected. Col. Wright stated that he had been practicing law for fifteen years, and assured the audience that he would conduct the Prosecuting Attorney's office in a satisfactory manner if elected. Squire Marks and R. L. Freeman were too modest to make a speech, so both gentlemen simply announced themselves and retired. D. T. Brock, the good looking candidate for County Clerk, said he was billed to speak at San Juan, but for some unaccountable reason turned up at the Park, and begged to be excused from making a speech, the two places being so different from a religious stand-point, and it being supposed that the manuscript of his speech had been forwarded to Capistrano, the audience permitted Mr. Brock to retire from the rostrum, but will not excuse him next time. Coroner Ey was on hand and said that as the Coroner was always the last one called to speak he would not bore the people with a long address, but simply announce himself as a candidate for re-election, after already makes quite motion to its neighbor it will be one of the few.

Present, Trustees Witte, Littlefield, Rust and Pellegrin. Absent Trustee Schindler. The Clerk read the minutes of the last regular meeting, which, after correction, were approved as read.

The report of the Treasurer was received, showing a balance on hand in favor of the city of $2,212 67 on October 11th. The Finance Committee's report was received and the committee was granted further time to report on various items. The Clerk's report was received and filed. All the reports were referred to the Finance Committee. No report was received from the Public Improvement Committee. The committee was granted further time to procure gravel. It was the opinion of the Attorney that the order of Chas. Schindler, presented at the last meeting, be left in abeyance at present, as he thought that the two parties interested—J. M. Griffith Co. and Mr. Schindler—should themselves settle the matter as to which party the attached money should be paid to. The electric light matter was called up for discussion. Charles Rogers of San Francisco, who has lately become a resident here, represented Mr. Kenney in the matter of putting in the plant as suggested at the last meeting. By giving the parties the franchise asked the city barred out no others from going into the electric light business. The new mode of lighting the city would be a great improvement and in every way would redound to our credit. Mr. Rogers made a vigorous appeal in support of the measure and asked that the Trustees take favorable action in the matter and allow Mr. Kenney to proceed and erect the plant as prayed for. Trustee Pellegrin offered a resolution in effect that a 25-year franchise to erect an electric light plant here be granted Mr. Kenney providing satisfactory arrangements can be made with his company, and that a committee of three, including the City Attorney, be appointed to consult Mr. Kenney and perfect all matters pertaining to the granting of the franchise, and embody the same in an ordinance to be presented to the board at the next meeting. The resolution was seconded by Trustee Rust and carried by the following vote: Ayes—Trustees Pellegrin, Rust and Littlefield. Noss—None. Trustees Rust, Pellegrin and Littlefield and Attorney Chynoweth were appointed a committee to perfect matters, and in all proba- D. T.

Coroner Ey was on hand and said that as the Coroner was always the last one called upon to speak he would not bore the people with a long address, but simply announce himself as a candidate for re-election, after which the meeting adjourned. To-morrow evening the unterried Democracy hold forth at Kroeger's Hall. Senator Del Vale of Los Angeles will be the orator, and the county candidates will be on hand to make matters interesting. A Delightful Entertainment. In these days of trashy and commonplace shows, it is a rare treat to see an entertainment that is refined and plessing all through; one to which you can take your family and little folks with perfect safety, and with the assurance that all will be entertained and advised: Such were the performances given here yesterday by the Mrs. Gen. Tom Thumb Company. They were simply delightful, and on every hand are heard praises of the company. Children like to be entertained, and Manager Howe has now an aggregation whose performance charms and satisfies all, and deserves to be everywhere greeted with crowded houses. New Orleans Picayune.

It is supposed that being unable to breathe he was another to death. An inquest was held on the remains in the evening, and a verdict was rendered in accordance with the foregoing facts. The man had no relatives here but he had a brother residing near Burbank, above Los Angeles. He was telegraphed to, but living some miles out of town it was impossible to obtain communication with him in time to have him present at the burial, and the remains were interred on Tuesday morning. The Southern Pacific Company will run a special train to Los Angeles Saturday evening, the 15th inst., to leave Santa Ana about 6:45 p.m., to accommodate those wishing to attend the great Republican rally, and return after close of exercises.

The cars will run regularly for all performances during the season. The citizens of Pomona and vicinity are earnestly at work on their new county scheme, which, if carried out, will be called San Antonio county. The people within the limita of the new county lines, which extend twenty miles east and west in the exact center of the country between Los Angeles and San Bernardino, are said to be almost a unit on the proposition, and as these lines will not seriously interfere with the plans for a future city and county government, to be formed by Los Angeles, the San Antonio county bill will hardly meet with formidable opposition from that city. A big damage suit is now in progress in Los Angeles against the Southern California Railroad, the plaintiff being Mrs. Arcadia B. de Baker. The plaintiff alleges that the defendant corporation constructed a levee along the banks of the Los Angeles river with a total disregard for its current, and caused it to diverge from its natural channel, so that after a heavy rain on January 26, 1890, the waters of said river flowed onto plantiff's land, cut a deep channel through it, carried away six miles of fence and destroyed 900 acres of her property. She asks, therefore, that the nuisance thus created be removed, and that she recover damages in the sum of $155,705.26. William Fischer, who is in charge of the PERSONAL MELANGE.

The next meeting takes place Saturday evening at Reiser's Hall. A full attendance is desired, as business of importance connected with the preliminary organization will come before the meeting. Yesterday we had an old-fashioned Santa Ana wind. The streets were enveloped with clouds and eddies and whirlpools of dust, and it wasn't very pleasant to be out. Fortunately for us, this boisterous weather does not come very often. The largest instrument ever tiled in the county was placed on record last week, when the agreement between the Anaheim Irrigation District and the water company was filed for record. The document consists of forty-seven type-written pages, containing 37,900 words. The fees for recording amounted to $57.30. Hon. W. H. Wilde will address the people on the issues of the day in this city next Wednesday evening. He will be at Orange next Saturday, at Tustin on Monday and at Garden Grove on Tuesday. He is an eloquent speaker and will doubtless draw large audiences. A telegram from Judge Wilson yesterday brings the information that the suit of Spencer and Amerige against the irrigation district had been dismissed by Judge Towner on Tuesday. The suit had been set for trial to-day, but its dismissal on Tuesday clears the calendar of anything against the district. It is reported that George Betts has purchased the Wesley Alms twenty-acre tract at Placentia; consideration $7,000, George is one of the most experienced orchardists in this section, and will undoubtedly make a model place of his new purchase.

The Santa Ana Blade says that John Cubben, who owns a ranch a mile and a half below that city has a walnut tree that means Los Angeles against the Southern California Railroad, the plaintiff being Mrs. Arcadia B. de Baker. The plaintiff alleges that the defendant corporation constructed a levee along the banks of the Los Angeles river with a total disrogard for its current, and caused it to diverge from its natural channel, so that after a heavy rain on January 26, 1890, the waters of said river flowed onto plantiff's land, cut a deep channel through it, carried away six miles of fence and destroyed 900 acres of her property. She asks, therefore, that she recover damages in the sum of $155,705.26. William Fischer, who is in charge of the Dreyfus winery, informs us that parties have been in the habit of breaking into the premises and taking away various articles of value. He has found foot-prints about the premises, the intruders bring bare-footed, and has discovered where they effected an entrance through the cellar door. There are about $500 worth of walnuts in the winery, besides other articles of value, and Mr. Fischer proposes that they shall not be stolen. He will watch for the thieves with a shotgun, and has notified the authorities that he will not be responsible for any dead people found around the winery if he runs across them in their thieving acts. Fischer says he has some very bad neighbors. A word to the wise is sufficient. The case of John Sloan of Buena Park against "Hayfork" Pritchard, to have the lengthy real estate boomer placed under bonds to keep the peace, he having threatened to kill Sloan on sight, was settled out of court last Thursday, "Hayfork" having apologized for his error and promising to mend his ways. Mr. Sloan is a peaceable citizen, and numbers the entire Buena Park population as his friends. Besides, he keeps posted by reading the Gazette, and is a good friend of ours. He doesn't particularly relish the idea of a man looking for him with a gun, and is not the right kind of man to hunt for trouble with anyhow. The affair has been amicably adjusted, and the Park is all serene again. Marshal Steadman was telegraphed to last Saturday afternoon that Carl Menzel was on the rampage at his home near the Southern Pacific depot and had threatened to kill his mother. The young desperado was said to have been chasing his mother around the premises with a club and had sharpened a knife to cut her head off, and had threatened to burn the house down. Steadman went down and arrested him. He was placed in jail, where he languished until Monday morning, when he was taken before Judge Pierce for examination. Mrs. Menzel did not care to swear out a complaint, and the youngster was released with a lecture from the Judge. The youth's father died three weeks ago, and his foot-steps seem to be pointed in direction of the State Prison. It is to be hoped for his mother's sake if not for his own that he will profit by the Judge's advice and mend his vicious ways. Fullerion Items. How does the "Santa Ana" feel? Makes people think that fall must be here. It puts the Easterner in mind somewhat of the howling, whistling zephyrs that play hide and seek around his home during the chilly November days. There is nothing that makes a home feel more cozy than to sit within and listen to the mooning winds without. Still we do not like to hear them at the Chino sugar factory during the summer, has returned to his home. The season's run at Chino he informs us was extremely satisfactory. Miss Isabelle Bennerstheidt returned on Sunday afternoon from a two months' trip to San Francisco, where she went for treatment of her eyes. She was at one time nearly blind, but her eyesight is much improved. The Henry Bras entertained their friends with one of their popular dances at their home last Saturday evening. Everybody had a way-up time, and all are anxious to have a similar treat in the near future. Major Starin was down from Los Angeles on Monday on a dying business trip. The Major has an extensive patronage down this way and always meets with a cordial welcome when he comes. Matt Everhardy came down from Los Angeles on Sunday on a visit to the old folks. Matt is still in the butcher business, which seems to agree with him, as he is rapidly acquiring an Aldermann corpulence. Ike Williams was in town yesterday, and informed us that the people of the Park will have a sugar factory before we have one here, unless we hurry up about it. Ike is working for a sugar factory here and at the Park, and is working so hard that he is positively getting thin over it. James D. Byrnes of San Francisco and Philip McEvoy of Redwood City, have been in town several days this week looking at a large tract of land south of town with a view to purchasing the same. Probably we shall soon be able to report one of the largest real estate transfers ever recorded in this part of the country.

Herman Krooger, who has been in the employ of the Chino sugar refinery in the capacity of superintendent of one of the sugar-cooking departments, has returned to his home here to remain. Mr. Turoke, who has been employed as night chemist at the refinery, is expected back in a day or two. It is reported that he will go to New Orleans to take a position in the Oxward refinery at that point. W. S. Marsh, who has purchased a place west of town, was in to see us a day or two ago. Mr. Marsh is recently from the East, and is very much pleased with what he has thus far seen of California. He is doing what he can to help the great enterprise along. Mr. Marsh is a desirable citizen, and will doubtless be the means of J. M. Ermerins of Los Angeles, State Organizer of the Knights of Macaboes, is in town in the interest of the order, and contemplates organizing a Tent of the order here this week. Mr. Ermerins has already secured the names of many of our citizens and starts off auspiciously with his work. The order is a strong one, comes well recommended and deserves the support of the people. The Santa Ana Blade says that John Cubben, who owns a ranch a mile and a half below city, has a walnut tree that measures twenty-eight inches in circumference and has never been irrigated. This gets away with Mr. Sheppard's three-year-old walnut tree, that measures twenty-three inches in circumference. Who can beat Mr. Cubben? Bentz & Steadman will move into their shop on Center street next week, and will fit it up as the finest meat market in the county. They have put in cement flooring and will make other extensive improvements, including cold storage, and will furnish the best meats that can be found in the market. While assisting Ernest Browning in shelling corn at his ranch on Tuesday morning a Chinaman had the misfortune to have the end of the middle finger of his left hand taken off by the machine. The Mongol was brought into town by Mr. Browning and Dr. Bullard dressed the wound. The heaten stood the operation stoically, and is getting along as well as could be expected. It is pleasant to reflect that the recent Orange County Fair was a conspicuous success financially, as it was artistically. The gate receipts at the race track were as follows: First day, $159; second, $199; third, $333; fourth—the Silkwood race—$1,652; fifth, $209 75. Total, $2,553 75, as against $1,240 in 1891. Children under twelve years of age were admitted free this year and were charged for last year. The pavilion receipts were but little in excess of last year, being something like $600. The sale of privileges on the grounds amounted to $728, about $200 in excess of last year. The grand stand receipts were $280, as against $186 last year. Manuel Vejar, a Mexican about 35 years of age, was found dead in Bernard Macari's barn on Chestnut street about 5 o'clock last Sunday afternoon. Vejar had been on a protracted spree for a week or so, and was very drunk on Sunday. On going Fullerion Items. How does the "Santa Ana" feel? Makes people think that fall must be here. It puts the Easterner in mind somewhat of the howling, whistling zephyrs that play hide and seek around his home during the chilly November days. There is nothing that makes a home feel more cozy than to sit within—and listen to the moaning winds without. Still we do not like to have quite so much dust cast in our eyes. Fall certainly is here. The farmer gooth out in his fields in the morning, plucking the golden and silver cars of grain from the stalk, weatherthe "outis vera" from his meta curpus and phalanges, and murmureth against a fate that only give him sixty cents a bushel and a short crop for his harvest. There is a good deal of complaint from our walnut growers on account of the leaves and nuts talling from so many of the trees at the same time. It is rather a difficult task to find the nuts when the ground is covered with the leaves. Miss McDermont and Mrs. Starbuck attended the W.C.T.U. convention in San Bernardo last week. Rev. Cowan preached twice in Fullerton last Sunday. He was very well liked. Rev. Schultz and family from Portland, Oregon, have moved into the Carpenter cottage on Amerige avenue. Mr. Grimshaw is overrun with work at the mill. He is just finishing some very fine windows for the Old Fellows' block in Norwalk.

Mr. and Mrs. Fox of Wisconsin, who came out here on account of the sickness of their daughter Fay, started for home Tuesday morning, taking Miss Fox with them. Capitol Extra Family Flour, $2 40 per hundred at Isaac Lyons. Isaac Lyons makes a specialty of hardware, tinware and stoves. Pickled salmon and genuine Holland herring at Lyons.* Our friend Larsen took a trip around the kite-shaped track as far as Pasadena and Lamanda Park on Sunday and enjoyed quite a novel experience. On a previous visit two weeks before he had been shadowed by a private detective, who fancied that he resembled John Sontag. Larsen succeeded in making his escape, however, and on his trip last Sunday went into a stable at Pasadena and hired a buggy to go driving. When he returned the news that he was Sontag had preceded him. His bill at the stable was only $1 75, when he expected it would be about $4. Thus the impression that he was noted outlaw saved him $2 25. And the joke of it all is that Larsen doesn't resemble Sontag at all. He's better looking, but he is two and a quarter ahead on the dear he is satisfied to let it go at that. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. ISAAC LYONS, ... DEALER IN... Groceries, -:- Provisions!
