LATE NEWS OF THE WEEK The City Trustees and Electric Lighting. A Franchise to Be Granted the Electric Company to Light the City—Celebration of Columbus Day—the Catholic Fair—Correspondence—Social News and Personal Mention. The Board of City Trustees met in regular session in the City Hall on Tuesday evening. Present, Trustees Witte, Schindler and Littlefield. Absent, Trustees Rust and Pellegrin. The Clerk read the minutes of the last regular meeting, which were approved. A delayed communication was received from F. E. Kenny of San Francisco stating that his company would have the electric light plant operating here within six months from date of signing contract. The Clerk was instructed to notify Mr. Kenny that the franchise would be granted as prayed for provided satisfactory arrangements can be perfected between the two parties concerned. The matter of procuring gravel for the streets next occupied the attention of the board. The Olive gravel is just the thing to fill in chuckholes, and it was the sense of the board that the Chairman of the Public Improvements Committee be empowered to hire teams to haul gravel from Olive at a price not to exceed $1 25 per cubic yard. That official was also requested to have all trees trimmed up on Claudina street between Center street and Broadway. Also that he plean off woods on certain parts of Center street. It was decided to place gravel crossings on the south side of Center street between Palm street and the City Hall, and crossings of a more improved style on the square at the intersection of Center and Los Angeles streets and also at Center and Lemon streets. The matter, however, was laid over until the next regular meeting for action. It was ordered that an 8-inch pipe for drainage be laid on Center street from Federman's corner to Mrs Metz's corner. The Clerk was instructed to notify Henry Boege that he come forward and sign a contract and furnish a bond for the faithful performance of good street sprinkling in this city, the matter so far having been unintentionally neglected. The President was allowed the privilege of laying in a supply of new furniture for use at the City Hall. "Tangled Up" is a jelly, complicated absurdity, for laughing purposes only, and as full of fun as a nut is of meat. Incidental to the comedy, Lotlie Mortimer will introduce her famous serpentine dance. Both play and players come with the strongest endorsement of the press of other cities. Tangled Up is not a farce comedy, but comedy farcical in treatment and more like the vaudevilles of olden time. It is said to be bright and sparkling with ludicrous complications and side-splitting situations. COLUMBUS DAY. PATRIOTICALLY OBSERVED BY THE SCHOOL CHILDREN AND CITIZENS. Columbus Day was patriotically observed by the school children and citizens on Friday last. The exercises at the Public School in town were conducted in the schoolyard, where seats had been provided for the accommodation of the large crowd in attendance. The official programme was carried out, including the reading of the President's proclamation, raising of the flag, saluting the flag, and the singing of patriotic songs. A feature of the exercises was the firing of a volley by a detachment from Company G. The following local programme was added: "There are many flags in many lands" ... Miss Janet Pruille—Jamie Wite, Nellie Weaver, Edna McWilliams, Allie Robinson, Emily Warrington Christopher Columbus ... Welton Wallop Song ... Patriole Glee Exercise ... Miss Stack's pupils My Country ... Mamie Sonnen Exercise ... Miss Stack's pupils Song ... America In the evening the Opera-house was filled with one of the largest audiences that ever gathered there. The following programme was rendered: Music ... Orchestra Reading—President's Proclamation ... Dr. Hunt Raising the Flag ... E. Barr and Dr. Bullay Salute to the Flag ... By Pupils Song ... America Acknowledgment of God ... Rev. G. W. Shroeder Song of Columbus Day ... Kindergarten Exercises ... Meaning of the Cauturies ... R. V. Garwood "The Ole for Columbus Day" ...

T. A. Darling Song ... "Song of a Thousand Years" The kindergarten exercises were an interesting feature of the evening's entertainment. The little ones showed careful training under Miss Aubert's guidance, and sang the song "Long Time Ago" with good effect. Then came marching, and a representation of Columbus at the Courts of the King of Italy and of Ferdinand and Isabella. Edward Gabriel... The Catholic Fair. The preparations for the forthcoming Catholic Fair are going on energetically and there is every indication that the fair will be a conspicuous success. Mrs. Theo. Rimpau has a most beautiful crochet-worked bedspread on display at Rimpau Bros.' store, which will be raffled off at fifty cents a chance during the fair. Every one should take a chance, as the weather is getting colder and it will come in handy. Miss Ida Everhardy is getting up a rattle of a splendid lace collar and cuffs at only fifteen cents a chance. We wont broke on the rattle for seven chances. There are still a lot of chances left unsold, and Miss Everhardy will be pleased to dispose of them. Miss Fanny Rowe is getting up a rattle for an Irishman's buggy, and the chances are going very fast. Only ten cents a chance. You want that buggy. Don't see how you can get along without it. Mrs. Adolph Rimpau and Mrs. Kirby and Madame Lecroq will also have articles to raffle off for the benefit of the church, and they expect to sell all the chances before and during the fair. The booths will be in possession of the lovely young ladies of this city, and Miss Dominga Aguilar will tell fortunes. She has already promised to tell us something nice, and we shall have our fortune told if we live and have our health. There will be fancy stands, flowers and ice cream stands, Rebecca at the Well, and countless other nice things too numerous to mention. The fair will be a great success, and everybody will be there to assist the ladies in their noble efforts in behalf of charity. Buenas Park atoms. The Literary Society met on Monday evening. The evening was taken up by the debate. The question was, "Resolved, That the old political parties have outlived their usefulness." Both sides were well defended by able speakers. The judges decided in the affirmative. Columbus Day was celebrated by the school. Our beautiful new flag was flung to the breeze early in the morning, thereby inspiring everyone with a feeling of patriotism. The children "did themselves proud," reflecting great credit on their teacher, Rev. Mr. Phillips and others kindly assisted. Mr. Dalton, a son-in-law of Mr. Cole, a well-known citizen of Centralia, has purchased a site for the purpose of erecting a creamy, which will be built soon. He will also build a residence and bring his family here, which will be quite an acquisition to Buenas Park society. The kindergarten exercises were an interesting feature of the evening's entertainment. The little ones showed careful training under Miss Aubert's guidance, and saag the song "Long Time Ago" with good effect.

The speakers were Dr. Head of Garden Grove and Mr. Wright. Miss Coxis in San Bernardino, and expects to be absent several weeks. BUENA. Orangethorpe Items. Columbus Day was duly observed by the Orangethorpe school. At an early hour the schoolyard was alive with shouts and laughter of the happy children, and by 9 o'clock a large number of parents and friends throughout the district had assembled on the grounds. At the appointed time the President's proclamation was read by Mr. A. Gardiner, and then a handsome flag was hoisted above the schoolhouse by Mr. Knowlton, a veteran from Sedgwick Post, who kindly tendered us his services. After salutes and cheers to our flag and song "America" by the school, an impressive prayer was offered by Rev. Mr. Skinner, the "Meaning of the Centuries" read by Morris Smith, and "Columbian Ode" rendered in fine style by Miss Griffin. In addition to those exercises, the school had prepared a select and interesting programme, the condition of which gave ample proof of the abilities of our teacher and her pupils, and was made doubly pleasing by fine selections of music—vocal and instrumental—by Misses Higuera, Schults and Stone. In conclusion, appropriate remarks were made by Rev. Mr. Skinner, and all adjourned with thoughtful homage to the great discoverer and grateful hearts to a Divine Providence, that their lines were cast in the fourth century of our nation's birth, and upon the "Italy of America," the brightest sunniest, fairest spot of all the new world. "Tangled Up." A bright and jolly comedy, an excellent company headed by two well-known actors, Louis De Lange and Will S. Rising, is the theatrical magnet which ought to draw a crowded house at the Opera-house this evening. Water Company Finances.

In walnuts and pampas plumes Anaheim keeps right along at the head of the procession. B. F. Pritchard of Buena Park was in town one day last week and dropped in to us. Mr. Pritchard is in receipt of extensive correspondence in reference to the cost of sugar making machinery.

This is a very interesting question for our people at this time, and Mr. Pritchard's estimates will be given close attention. John Doe Osborn is under arrest for an assault committed upon Harry Reisbach at the Landing some days ago. Harry is an inoffensive and law abiding citizen and everybody who has ever been at the Landing cannot have come away without being under some obligations to him.

Mr. Capitain informs us that the Stearns Ranchos Company have taken five hundred shares in the Co-operative Beet Sugar Company. This adds five hundred acres to the acreage already subscribed, and with the amount subscribed by the Beet Sugar and Land Company in town will bring the total acreage to more than 3,000 acres. One hundred and forty deeds have been made to the corporation, the total acreage deeded being about 1,800 acres. With five hundred acres of Stearns Ranchos Company deeded in together with that to be deeded by the town, the first stage of the great enterprise will have been completed, and building operations will probably begin very shortly thereafter. A special train consisting of twenty-six box-cars loaded with English walnuts left Los Angeles Saturday afternoon for the East via the Santa Fe road. Nearly 20,000 pounds of walnuts were placed in each car, and the estimated value of each carload is about $1,600. This is the first train-of this character which has been shipped across the continent, and the occasion is an interesting one to shippers of California products. The nuts are the product of the Los Niotas Walnut Association. The entire train was photographed before it started on its transcontinental journey. The cargo will be distributed among the various large cities in the East. The walnut crop of Orange county will amount to $75,000, of which Anaheim and the country tributary produces nearly if not quite one-third. Messrs. Sandilands and Forbes, two of Placentia's rising young business men, were in town on Monday getting their mail and laying in supplies for the week. Mr Sandilands' brother takes passage on the City of New York on the 9th of next month from London for this point, and will doubtlessly take up his residence here permanently. His mother is also expected out shortly to make an extended tour of the country and pay a visit to The World's Fair. Both Sandilands and Forbes occupy their spare moments talking about the Placentia "cut-off," and in their mind's eye see a beautiful little city nestling amid the orange groves in their section. Ben and Ed Kraemer were in town on a blood vessel in the call of his right leg, which confined him to his bed for seventeen days. The injury is healing very nicely and the General is able to be out again. He was down for several good Republican speeches this campaign, but was debarred from keeping his appointments through the accident. He expects, however, to be with us with Bowers at Kroeger's Hall to-morrow night. Theo, Reiser returned Sunday from San Francisco, where he attended the meeting of the Masonic Grand Lodge. He informs us that in reference to the selection of the Del Campo Hotel for the Masonic Widowa'and Orphans' home, there are still grounds to hope that that site will be selected. The matter of the selection of that site has been referred to a committee, and it is expected they will be here within the week to investigate the site and report. Mr Reiser is very hopeful of getting a favorable report from the committee, as the property offered for a site here is undoubtedly better than any of the other offers made by Grand Lodge bythe several communities ofthe upper counties. Mr. Capitain informs us that the Stearns Ranchos Company have taken five hundred shares in the Co-operative Beet Sugar Company.

W. W. Bowers, our next Congressman, will speak at Kroger's Hall to-morrow evening on the issues now engrossing the attention of the people. Gen. Pierce will also probably be present, and the Republican candidates will be around to shake hands with their friends and make matters interesting. Bowers has made a good Congressman, and deserves to be re-elected. There should be a large audience out to hear him. Miss Jettie Arthur's dancing school began under favorable auspices at the Del Campo Hotel last Saturday evening. The class will meet again to-morrow (Friday) evening, when those who contemplate joining should be in attendance. Miss Arthur is better prepared than ever to teach all the latest society dances, and her energetic efforts to instruct our young people in the art of dancing should be rewarded in the shape of a large class of our young ladies and gentlemen. "Tangled Up" was voted a very funny play by the audience at Houck's last night, says the Cincinnati Times-Star. "The piece is full of bright lines. Louis De Lange has the best part of the piece and he makes most out of some cleverly arranged situations. Will Rising played the part of a young lieutenant and was a decided favorite with the audience. Miss Lottie Mortimer's serpentine dance made the most pronounced hit of the performance.

Both Sandilands and Forbes occupy their spare moments talking about the Placentia 'cut-off,' and in their mind's eye see a beautiful little city nestling amid the orange groves in their section. Ben and Ed Kraemer were in town on Monday a short business trip. Since the coyote bounty went into effect they inform us they are not troubled with the varmints to any great extent, still they have a call from a coyote every once in a while. Ben had one visit his henhouse Sunday night. One of the men got up and took a shot at the vintend, and when Ben got out the coyote was making tracks toward the hills. Two fine chickens had been taken from the roost, but these the coyote had leave behind. The birds were minus several handfuls of feathers and they will have to grow new tails, or go without, the coyote having despoiled them of that adornment. Ed brought in two scalps last week, but the varmints are getting so scarce he has about given up the idea of trapping them. The community was shocked on Sunday evening to learn of the death of Henry Wehmeyer, an old and respected resident of this city. Mr. Wehmeyer had been in excellent health and spirits up within a day or two of his death, when he was stricken with pneumonia and internal disorders, which resulted in his death as stated. He had many friends throughout the country who deeply deplore his untimely taking off. Mr. Wehmeyer being an old and successful wine maker and believing that the dreaded vine disease had spent its force, had some years ago planted a new vineyard, from which he had just harvested his first crop of grapes. The fruits of his industry will live after him. He was a member of the local lodge of Chosen Friends, in which order his life was insured for $2,000. Mrs. Wehmyer's death occurred about a year ago, and the present affliction comes as an irreparable blow to his two daughters who survive him. They have the sincere condolence of all in their great bereavement. The remains were borne to their last resting place on Tuesday afternoon, being followed to the grave by a large concourse of sorrowing friends. F. E.

Hiram Hill, pastor of the Presbyterian Church, with his wife, have returned from Fresno, where they went to attend Synod of the Pacific.
