A WEEK OF CASUALTIES. Two Drownings at the Landing and One at Bolsa Chica Jean Jaureguey and Juan Lorda Drown at the Landing, and Harry Gillson Loses His Life at Bolsa Chica—Adolph Gruenka Run Over and Killed—Other News—The Bank Will Resume—Meeting of the Water Boards—Social News—Personnals. Word was brought into town yesterday afternoon that Harry Gillson, aged 21 years, who worked as a farm hand for John Beckett down on the Alamitos, was drowned while bathing in the surf at Bolsa Chica Tuesday afternoon. Gillson had gone down to the beach with a wagonload of young people to spend the Fourth, and in the afternoon went in bathing with two others. They were out in the surf, when he got beyond his depth and sank. He was carried out by the tide and his body was not recovered. He met death in almost precisely the same manner as the two drownings narrated below. He went too far and got into the deep channel, where the water runs with the velocity of a millrace, and he was carried out. LATER—At 2:30 yesterday afternoon a telephone message brought the information that the body had been found. The Coroner was notified, and he went down to hold the inquest. A distressing drowning accident occurred at the Landing at about noon on Sunday, which resulted in the loss of two lives and the narrow escape of another. Jean Jaureguey, a well-to-do sheep owner living down on the Alamitos, to the right of the Anaheim Landing road, went in bathing, accompanied by his wife and his sheep herder, named Juan Lorda. They procured bathing suits and walked down the beach, laughing and talking, until they reached a place some distance below the warehouse, near the Point, where the breakers come well in shore, and where the channel has cut out an abrupt decivity in the beach, making H. Cargil, filed notice that they would hold the company responsible for their failure to furnish them water purchased. The Brookhurst Company was given credit for $30, and the zanjero was notified to distribute water to the ranch for the same. Col. Northam submitted a communication calling the board's attention to the condition of the ditch across his lands in North Anaheim. The ditch is an eyesore to the Colonel, and is a nest of weeds and breeding place for the meek and lowly gopher. He wants it kept in better condition, and also demanded pay in the sum of $56 35 for work performed on it by him. The board determined to pay the bill, and resolved to keep the ditch in better trim. Time Lynch wrote respecting the loss of one certificate of a share of stock owned by him. On his submitting an allidavit reciting the same, a duplicate certificate was ordered to be issued to him. Communication of Mr. Langenberger respecting the restoring of thirty shares of stock to land owned by him on the line of the upper ditch. On motion of Director Amorige, laid on the table. It was ordered that the water be turned into the North Anaheim ditch for three days, and thereafter the run to be evened up gradually and to be kept as even as possible. The Secretary was forbidden to employ extra help in the office except by the instructions of the board. Adjourned. THE BANK MEETING. DEPOSITORS COME TOGETHER IN HARMONIOUS SESSION AND PASS RESOLUTIONS ENDORSEING THE BANK. A representative gathering of the citizens of this city and the surrounding country met at Kroeger's Hall last Saturday evening, in response to a notification that important matters in connection with the resumption of business by the Bank of Anaheim would come up for discussion and be submitted for the approval of depositors. Seldom has the hall been so crowded with a representative gathering of the solid men of the valley. Mr. Melrose called the meeting to order shortly after 8 o'clock, and said it would be necessary to choose a chairman. Some one suggested Philip Davis. Mr. Melrose stated that as Mr. Davis did not happen to be a depositor in the bank, perhaps it would be better to select some one else. Mr. Whitaker of Buona Park was nominated and elected, and Mr. Brown was chosen to act as Secretary. On taking the chair Mr. Whitaker said the people of the valley all Kleinig —The orange pack over the county for th —From all we can parade was a fizzle— —The people aloung on turkey—free —Billy Rea has go reside, and his place will be conducted —Fritz Ruhman yice chest, which they beauty and a joy for Williams was the arce —Santa Ana's parade our own joyous fire year, with the big display and barbecue —The county funds all intact.

John Book of this and a native of Germanthe indigent list at $ application of Mrs. J A distressing drowning accident occurred at the Landing at about noon on Sunday, which resulted in the loss of two lives and the narrow escape of another. Jean Jauregue, a well-to-do sheep owner living down on the Alamitos, to the right of the Anaheim Landing road, went in bathing, accompanied by his wife and his sheep herder, named Juan Lorda. They procured bathing suits and walked down the beach, laughing and talking, until they reached a place some distance below the warehouse, near the Point, where the breakers come well in shore, and where the channel has cut out an abrupt declivity in the beach, making it an exceedingly unsafe place for bathers who cannot swim. While wading along in the surf the woman suddenly stepped into the abyss, when she immediately went under with a splash. Her husband immediately sprang after her, but, being unable to swim, he sank out of sight, when Juan Lorda plunged in after him. He, too, went under. The screams of the woman roused the camp, and Harry Reisbach and Jeff Gines set about to get boats to the rescue. They reached the drowning woman in the nick of time, succeeded in getting her out, when they put about for the shore. The bodies of the men were taken out by the current and could not be seen. The rescued woman was in a state of collapse, and it was well along in the afternoon before she was resuscitated. All the arts employed to revive the drowned were put in practice upon her until the arrival of physicians. She was delirious during the night, and the fact that her husband had been lost in the sea was kept from her. Early Monday morning she was taken to her home at the sheep camp some miles this side of the Landing. Her condition was such as necessitate the keeping from her of all facts connected with the distressing affair. Jauregue was aged about 35 years, and had been married about six months ago. He owned a band of some 6,000 sheep, and was quite well-to-do. ONE BODY RECOVERED. The body of Jouregue was found at low tide at about 8 o'clock Monday morning. The body had been washed up on the western edge of the island, and was found in shallow water by a man who had been looking for it since daylight. It was taken to the Landing, where later in the day an inquest was had, resulting in a verdict in accordance with the foregoing facts. The body was taken to Santa Ana and embalmed and shipped to Los Angeles for interment. Lorda's body had not been recovered up to latest reports. He was about 21 years of age. The condition of Mrs. Joiregue was reported better yesterday. THE WATER COMPANY. CORONER EY DOESN'T CONSIDER ASSESSOR ROSS A HERO, NOT BY A LONG SHOT—COL. BOB. NORTHAM. The Board of Directors met in regular session on Saturday, present Director McFadden, Kellogg, Amerige, Rust, Tuffree and Zeyn. Absent, Mr. Bottsford. Director Amerige reported on the extent the approval of depositors. Seldom has the hall been so crowded with a representative gathering of the solid men of the valley. Mr. Melrose called the meeting to order shortly after 8 o'clock, and said it would be necessary to choose a chairman. Some one suggested Philip Davis. Mr. Melross stated that as Mr. Davis did not happen to be a depositor in the bank, perhaps it would be better to select some one else. Mr. Whitaker of Buona Park was nominated and elected, and Mr. Brown was chosen to act as Secretary. On taking the chair Mr. Whitaker said the people of the valley all wanted to stand by the bank and see it resume. He had done business with the bank for many years and had always found Mr. James an accommodating gentleman and able financier. He (Mr. Whitaker) had come here eleven years ago, and he remembered the first thing he had to do was to borrow some money at the bank [laughter], and he had been doing business with it ever since. Mr. Crowther wanted to know whether the meeting would be one of depositors only, or would be open to the public. Mr. Melrose stated the object of the meeting, and said the bank was as solvent now as it ever was—and everybody knows the Bank of Anaheim is as solid as any banking institution in the country. He showed the fallacy of depositors calling for their money in a run, and said that no bank would withstand such treatment. After a further discussion of the matters before the meeting Mr. James arrose and made the following offer to the depositors: "All depositors having deposits of $50 or less, to be paid at once in full; those having from $50 to $100 to be paid 20 per cent on the resumption of business; those from $100 to $500, 10 per cent, and those over $500 5 per cent; the balance to be paid in two, four and six months in equal payments, and to remain as open deposits in the bank. Certificates of deposits payable at such times and to be issued to those who desire them." Judge Pierce said that was good enough for him, and that if he could get a certificate of deposit he would be willing to sign the agreement permitting the bank to resume. Mr. Crowther said the proposition was good for the small depositors, but not so good for the big follows. He thought pro-rata payments would be better. Mr. Melrose said a man with $50 in bank needed his money a great deal worse than one having $2,000, with which the meeting evidently acquiesced, and Mr. James' proposition was adopted unanimously. Judge Pierce then offered the following resolution: Resolved: That the depositors in the Bank of Anaheim, in meeting assembled, express the utmost confidence in the integrity of Mr. James as President of the Bank of Anaheim, and in his ability as a banker and financier, and fully endorse his proposition looking to the resumption of business. The resolution was passed unanimously. Remarks were made by Messrs. Tuffree, Jones, Whitaker, Melrose and Atherton, all of them in favor of the resumption of business by the bank, and the meeting adjourned. IMPORTANT TO DETOSITORS. It is important that every depositor in the bank sign the agreement for the resumption of business. Nearly all of them have already signed it, but there are yet a number who have failed to do so. The unfortunate accident sustained by Mr. James at Santa Monica will keep him to his bed for some time. Mrs. Brendot has cottage on Center street with her sister and to reside.

The Board of Directors of the Anahiem Water Company met in regular session on Saturday, present Directors McFadden, Kellogg, Amereg, Rust, Tuffree and Zeyn. Absent, Mr. Botsford. Director Amerige reported on the extent of damages claimed by reason of ditch overflow at Yorba. The aggrieved parties submitted that they had been pretty near ruined by the overflow, but when Mr. Amerige wont up and viewed the landscape o'er, he thought that about $5 would set the matter right. The Superintendent was accordingly instructed to make a tender of that amount to Sonor Gabriel de los Reyes, failing to accept which he might be compelled to satisfy himself with getting along with nothing at all. The Law Committee made their report on the progress of the La Jurupa suit. The complaints have been served on the defendants, and they will be brought into court to answer to the charge of illegal diversion of water, within a short time. Coroner Ey wrote saying that he would accept payment on his note of $4,000, rather than submit to the indigency of letting the company have it for anything less than 10 per cent. This is the note that drew 8 per cent, when Assessor Ross made his foray into town and assessed it. The Coroner has been stung by the remarks made by the rabble about his demanding interest sufficient to cover the loss he sustained by the Assessor's escapade, and writes: "Comment has been made about Jacob Ross, Assessor's discovery, and that said notes should be assessed. Now is it not a fact that most of these notes are held by helpless widows? who last year paid 2¼ per cent taxes on said notes, leaving them net interest from the water company of 5¼ per cent? I also know that many of those ladies have no other means, except those few dollars left them. If any one can see wherein said Assessor has shown a hero, I fail to see it. Mr. Ross didn't show a hero—he didn't show anything at all. In fact, he wasn't called. But he got away with the pot. The action of the President and Secretary in borrowing $1,000 from W. J. Smith was approved. Director Ruat reported that John Eyman had $1,000, and Mrs. A. L. Pellegrin $1,250 which would be placed at the disposal of the company. The Brookshurst Orange Company, by A." Placentia Pointers. Chas. Binder and wife are camping at the Landing. C. Norman lost a valuable horse on Sunday last from inflammation of the stomach. S. M. Richardson, uncle of Mrs. A. S.

Mother and child doing well. Mr. Thomas Strain contemplates taking a trip through San Diego county. He will be accompanied by his daughter Jane. Mao Woodward is having a house moved from Carlton, "the dead city," to his ranch, which he will occupy in the near future. A. Baston has the work in charge. The Union high school board met at Fulerton June 29th and organized the school board by choosing Wm. Schulte of Orange-thorpe, President; and A. S. Bradford of Placentia, Secretary. On Saturday July 1st Placentia district trustees organized by choosing Wm. Crowther as chairman and A. S. Bradford clerk, both succeeding themselves. The new trustee was Henry Hetebrink. Lymphburner Wins a Fight. Jack Kellerman came down from the Puente oil wells on Monday, and ran across Billy Lymphburner, the pugilist, at Fullerton. They had a fight, and in the scrimmage Kellerman had his collarbone broken. Kleinigkeiten. The orange packers have shut down all over the county for the season. From all we can hear Santa Ana's big parade was a fizzle—oh? The people along North street are living on turkey—free turkey, so they say. Billy Roa has gone to Long Beach to reside, and his place of business at Fullerton will be conducted by George Williams. Fritz Ruhman yesterday put in his new ice chest, which they tell us is a thing of beauty and a joy forever. Carpenter McWilliams was the architect. Santa Ana's parade wasn't it at all with our own joyous firecracker celebration last year, with the big triumphal arch, trades display and barbecue—wantn't in it at all. The county funds have been found to be all intact. Treasurer Mansur showed up $64,327 30 Monday when the Supervisors and District Attorney called to see whether the public money was all right. Letters for the following persons remain uncleared for at the Postoffice: Miss Martha Salazar, A. G. Humson, Geo. Grayer, Clara Bowell (2), Joseph Rohsle, Senior Don Evaristo Boatraud. There was no quorum at the meeting of stockholders of the cemetery association at Kroeger's Hall last Saturday afternoon, and the meeting adjourned to next Saturday afternoon, at the same place. Mrs. J. L. Schumacher has our thanks for a superb collection of raspberries raised on his place on Center street. They are the finest looking berries we have seen this season.

The application of Mrs. Juana R. do Diaz to tion works there are in Southern California worth their attention. There is no work of this kind in existence, and the data for the pamphlet must be gathered by the committee from newspaper clippings, miscellaneous pamphlets and such other matter bearing on the subject as can be secured through the kindness of those interested in irrigation. Representatives of water companies and of irrigation interests in Southern California are requested to send to the Secretary of the Irrigation Congress, C. D. Willard, Chamber of Commerce, Los Angeles, any information, statistics or pictures which they may have bearing on this general subject. The boys tell us the newly imported Russians are not what they are cracked up to be. The boys were making good wages at sacking potatoes at seven cents a sack, when the refugees cut the rate to five cents. The boys met this cut, when the Russians deliberated for a moment and sent down the price to three cents a sack. The boys couldn't make salt at those figures, and so had give up the field to the foreigners. Meanwhile the rich potato manufacturer is getting richer, and the poor are getting poorer. Mr. Staley informs us that five of the buds upon his night blooming cores dropped from their stem before blossoming, but the plant has yet a bud that gives evidence of putting forth a flower soon. These are rare curiosities, and when in blossom are most beautiful specimens of flora. Mr. Staley will be pleased to have visitors call to see the flower when in bloom. It will be remembered that the blossom lasts but a couple of hours, when it begins to wither and by sunrise loses all semblance of its former beautiful self. Among the passengers north from Santa Ana on the San Diego Express last Friday evening, heavily weighted down with umbrellas, bundles and boxes, was Lawyer Mendelson, who was in the act of shaking the dust of the county seat from his feet for the bleak and barren fields of Arizona, where he goes to grow up with the country. Some mischievous boys at Santa Ana had been in the habit of sending Mendelson a Jack of Clubs in his mail daily, chiefly on account of what they said was a strong facial resemblance between them, and Mendelson got tired of it, and left for Arizona. We take pleasure in directing attention to the new dry goods advertisement of our popular merchant, Isaac Lyons, which will be found elsewhere in our columns this morning. Mr. Lyons has fitted his store with a stock of new dry goods, boots and shoes, gents' furnishing goods, fancy goods, hats, etc., and has now one of the most complete establishments in Southern California.

The flag on the City Hall flowed triumphant in the breezes all day long yesterday. It had flapped itself about the staff on the Glorious Fourth and could not be taken down. The report yesterday afternoon was that City Clerk Nebelung, having just returned exhilarated from the springs, would climb up the flag pole and take it down. It is a work of supererogation to speak of the splendid special numbers now—and again issued by our contemporary the Los Angeles Times. It has lately put in a number of type setting machines, which do wonderful work, and give the paper, to our notion, a clearer and more attractive type face than that of any newspaper on the coast, San Francisco in no wise expected. The Times is not only an able and widely-influential paper, but a beauty as well. Its issue of Sunday last was a "bird." The spring poet has broke loose, and sends us this item through the mail: Then he drove a team in Anaheim, The festure town, and gay, And the used a big umbrella. When he hauled his loads of hay. Then a fig for Billy Berdrow, And his umbrella...la so gay, As he passes through the sunny streets On top a load of hay. The chorus will be found especially striking. But the spring poet has made a break for tall timber. The Publication Committee of the Irrigation Congress, which meets in Los Angeles October 10th to 15th, has in preparation and will issue immediately an illustrated pamphlet on the subject of irrigation enterprises of Southern California. This book is designed for circulation among delegates to the convention and others who will visit the city at that time, to show them what irriga- —The Olive Milling Company propose to increase their capital stock from $50,000 to twice that amount for the purposes of enlarging their facilities for business. The company has been very successful in the past, and has been earning upwards of ten per cent on their capital stock, and the idea is entertained that as much as eight per cent may be realized on a capital stock of $100,000. The increased capital will give the company a chance to purchase wheat in the open market more advantageously than as present, and will doubtless redound to the pecuniary benefit of the stockholders. Our reference last week to the ice cream social given at Dr. Hunt's residence, as having been given by the members of the Presbyterian Church, was in error. The social was given by the ladies of the W.C.T.U., and was for the benefit of that organization. The correction calls up the fact, as we are informed, that the Presbyterians have refrained from giving socials for pecuniary profit, the congregation being well able to defray the expenses of maintaining the church themselves. The W.C.T.U. ladies have lately begun these most agreeable entertainments, and we believe intend having others in the near future. Here are a couple of growls that we got in the mail: "The street sprinkler doesn't sprinkle enough during these summer days—one side of Center street gets dry before the other side is sprinkled. Punch bigger holes in the sprinkling business, or get a bigger sprinkler. Don't let people say that we are more stingy with water than we are with beer." "Hurry up the mail delivery at the postoffice and defer biocycle riding until after mail hours. Why don't they stop this bicycle riding? I very nearly got my neck broke the other night by my horse getting frightened at one of those informal machines. They are a dashed nuisance." Senor Don Yasabel Molino came to town on Sunday afternoon, and with malice propense set about to violate Section 2 of Ordinance XII, which is as near as we have yet got to prohibition. Don Yasabel contracted a spectacular jag, and proceeded to disturb the peace of sunday respectable members of society on Lemon street. Marshal Steadman took him by the neck, and placed him where he could lay hands on him next morning, to wit, the jail. Monday morning Recorder Pierce fined him the customary $6 50, or three days in jail. Senior Yasabel did not have the money, so he went to the bastile. Once upon a time the Judge fined a man for disturbing the peace. He could not pay, and he was let off. Then the City Fathers made the Judge pay the fine himself. Hereafter offenders who cannot pay must go to jail. Mr. Plez James sustained quite a serious accident at Santa Monica on the Fourth, when he had misfortune to fall down the hatchway of a ship at the wharf. He was out with his daughter Bessie and had started to go down into the hold of the ship, and when between decks stepped into the hatchway, which could not be seen in the dark, and went plunging down some fifteen feet or more to the bottom. He was taken out with difficulty, when it was found that he had sustained severe bruises, the ligaments of the leg having been badly sprained. Miss Rossie went to the end of the wharf and ordered an engine and car to the scene of the accident, and Mr. James was taken to Santa Monica. Here she telegramged home that an accident had occurred, coupling with it the usual addenda that nothing serious had occurred, and that there was no occasion for alarm. Mr. James arrived on the evening train and was immediately taken to his residence. His injuries were attended to, and yesterday he was resting easier. He will in a day or two be well on the road to recovery again. Adolph Gruenke, a recent arrival from Russia, was run over in his harvest field between here and Garden Grove, while loading hay late last Wednesday aftercoon, receiving injuries from the effects of which he expired on Friday morning. Gruenke had rented a piece of land below town and had raised a crop of hay. He was engaged in stacking it, and last Wednesday afternoon was in the field loading his hay wagon. His father was in the wagon stacking the hay, while the son did the pitching. Somehow the old man lost his balance and fell to the ground, the noise frightening the horses and starting them to run away. Gruenke sprang ahead to catch them and succeeded in getting hold of both horses by the reins. They had acquired some speed when he got in front of them, and he was knocked over upon his back, the horses and the wagon passing over him. His back was broken, and he received internal injuries which placed him beyond all hope of recovery. The old man called for assistance, and his unfortunate son was borno to his residence and physicians were summoned. He lingered until Friday morning, when he expired. He was buried on Sunday from the Methodist Church, where the Russian colony held divine worship. Gruenke was a native of Poland, and was aged 32 years. He leaves a wife and three children.
