LOCAL NEWS OF INTEREST City Tax Levy Will be 90 Cents on the $100. Meeting of the Trustees Tuesday Evening, and a Transcript of Their Proceedings—Electric Light Election to Be Held October 27th — Provision Made for the Payment of Interest on Electric Light Bonds—Notes from West Anaheim — Life at the Landing—Benux and Belles and Mermaids — Correspondence—Items of Minor Import—Personal Mention. The Board of City Trustees met in regular session on Tuesday evening. Present, Trustees McWilliams, Conrad, Lewis and Helmson. In the absence of Chairman Rust, Trustee Lewis noted as President pro tem. The Marshal reported the collection of $364 05 for water and licenses for August. He also reported the collection of $7 25 for delinquents for license in July. Water delinquents for the past month amounted to $13 75. He also reported the sale of $10 worth of dog tags. The Treasurer reported a balance of $2,560 11 in the treasury on August 13th. The Clerk reported the collection of $144 60 from various sources during the past month. The ex-officio Assessor reported the collection of $228 77 for personal property taxes. The Recorder reported that one Walter Jones had been arrested on a petty charge, but was released, and no fine was collected. All the reports were received and filed. The Committee on Public Improvements reported that the pipe line on Broadway had been laid in a workmanlike manner. The private bridge on Broadway which is understood belong to Messrs. Konig and Goodale, was reported to be in a dangerous condition. The parties were given notice to remedy it, but claimed they had nothing to do with it. The bridge, in the opinion of the council, is private property, and should the owner refuse to repair it after 24 hours' notice the same will be forthwith removed and the ditch filled. The Clerk was instructed to notify the owners to that effect. Ordinance No. 99, establishing the width and grade of Sycamore street, and the width and grade of Los Angeles street, between Cypress and Center, and also fixing the width of cement sidewalks on the latter street, was passed. As President Rust is possible for three congregations in Westminster to presach "the greatest thing on earth is love," and in the same breath malign one another is a thing I, for one, can't blame them for failing to see. The remedy lies close at hand. Let there be immediate union among the churros, and in practice as well as in theory let one solid united church preach, "And now abideth these three, faith, hope and love, and the greatest of these is love." As Westminster christianity now stands, it reminds me of an old story. A Scotch clergyman on revisiting his old parish asked a member of the church, "How is Christianity flourishing since I left?" "Very badly," was the reply. "How's that?" says the parson. "Because," was the reply. "There are no Christians in the parish but my brother Dave and myself, and I have my own doubts about Dave." WEST ANAHEIM. A BACKWARD BEET SEASON—HOW TO TELL A RIPE BEET—BAD CULVERTS NEED REPAIR—THE SCHOOL ON SECTION 27. What is the matter with the farmers this beet season? Last season the trouble was to have them haul fewer beets, this season it is hard work to get them to bring in what they promise. I understand the beet company are going to move out to Buena Park Thursday, to give the best growers there a chance of shipping some of their ripe beets. They will likely be there about two weeks. When they come back to Anaheim it is to be hoped the growers here will be ready to respond to the calls for heavy tonnage delivery. H. C. Began began harvesting some of his beets Monday, and though not a very heavy tonnage, they are pretty well up in sugar and away up in purity, which shows they are ripe. A number of tests last week showed 90 per cent and some even as high as 95 per cent purity. A good way to know a ripe beet is to scrape it with the finger-nail, and if it is ripe it will turn to a reddish color, but if not ripe it will turn black; also, a ripe beet ought to be of a slightly yellowish hue, not pure white. Tim Carroll has put up a platform from which to unload his own beets. It is so constructed that by raising a lever, after the wagon has ascended to the top of the platform, it is tipped over sideways, and the side of the wagon being on hinges and lot down, the beets roll out and there is very little shoveling to be done. Everybody go and see it. The Garden Grove road, from Nutwood south to the tower, has been strawed and is in good fix for the Garden Grove beet haulers. Talking about roads, why don't our supervisors look after the culverts? We don't possible for three congregations in Westminster to presach "the greatest thing on earth is love," and in the same breath malign one another is a thing I, for one, can't blame them for failing to see. The remedy lies close at hand. Let there be immediate union among the churros, and in practice as well as in theory let one solid united church preach, "And now abidath these three, faith, hope and love, and the greatest of these is love." As Westminster christianity now stands, it reminds me of an old story. A Scotch clergyman on revisiting his old parish asked a member of the church, "How is Christianity flourishing since I left?" "Very badly," was the reply. "How's that?" says the parson. "Because," was the reply. "There are no Christians in the parish but my brother Dave and myself, and I have my own doubts about Dave." WIFE AT THE SEA SHOP SATURDAY EVENING THE YOUNG GIRLS GO DOWN TO BASK IN SUNNY SMILES OF THE DAMS AT THE BEACH. Camp life at Anaheim Landing is very joyable these warm days; here it is all pleasant. Wo who have the privilege enjoying the luxury of the sea breeze, ex our sympathy to those who live in the prior valleys at a long distance from the ocean and in a hot climate. This is certainly of the luxuries that we can boast of. Our camp is now very lively. Saturday evening brought dozens of the young gallons here to trip the light fantastic at the wet hop. A number of families of the regular carers who own their own cottages are here usual. The families of Mrs. Bauer, Mrs. Hiltscher, Mrs. Mosseman, Mrs. Granges, Sr., and her son Otto and his sister, Arthur Lewis and family, Mr. Walsh Mr. L. F. Lewis, W. M. McFadden, H. Polhemus, Tim Boege, Mr. Weisel's family J. Hartung, Mr. Morritt, P. Hanson, Fossek, Mr. Mickel, Mr. Slack and fans from San Gabriel, Mr. Courad, Mr. Calhoun H. C. Gade, Tim Carroll, Mrs. Dyer many others with their families, and on Sunday hundreds come in for the day. The botol of Mine Host Mitchell has been crowded to its utmost capacity. A number of young ladies from San Ana, Anaheim, Buena Park, Centralia or Los Angeles are camping in a large tent; appears to be well supplied with provisions and the girls are having a good time. They have a sign out in front, "Kickers' Kamp" which does not convey much information they have not thus far given any exhibit of their kicking. Fishing, boating, bathing, eating and sleeping are some of the means of killing time. The summer bean is here, and is often seen whispering his sweet nothings into your eyes and attentive ears. The camp is enlivened by the presence of Orangetherpee, Miss Zelma Rollo of Centralia, Miss Cora and Stella Lewi Miss Nellie Tuffree, Miss Mattie and Annie Hanson, Miss Goldthwaite, Miss Nora Roah and hosts of others that we are unable remember at present. Ben Porter, Frank Purdy, Will McFadden D. McKinney and many other gallants have been here for a few days. The many attractions hold a goodly number for most of the week, but others only for a day or so; but Saturday we see them all back again with hosts of others. The summer beau is here, and is often seen whispering his sweet nothings into ears and attentive ears. The camp is enlivened by the presence of the Misserie Baker of Santa Ana, Miss Red Smith of Orangesthorpe, Miss Zolma Roll of Centralia, Misses Cora and Stella Lewin of Nellie Tuffree, Misses Mattie and Ann Hansen, Miss Goldthwaite, Miss Nora Rea and hosts of others that we are unable to remember at present. We are expecting a steam launch in the week, also expecting the brass band concert next Sunday promised by Stern Bros. For the next three weeks we are counting on plenty of people and lively times. Mr. Editor, I am quite sure if you were come down, breathe the ozone and see the nymphs and maidens of the seaside, you would regret that you had lived batchelor so long, and would amuse for lost time by shying your castor at one of the many fair ones that are to be found in their fetching bathing suits daily sporting the waves. The Landing continues to draw its usual Sunday crowd, and its popularity as a summer resort is growing fast among the inhabitants of the countryside. The Saturday evening hops in the pavilion, are a source of amusement to many of the campers. Dull care is thrown aside, and everybody goes in for a jolly time. Among the new arrivals this week are Miss Selma Roller, Katherine Mehra Rotta Smith, Cora Lewis, and the Miss Baker of Santa Ana. They are chaperoned by Mrs. A. V. Smith. Their tents are pitched in the flat to the west. They have dubbed the place "The Kickers' Kamp," and everything around the place looks as neat and clean a new pin. Sweet smiles are dished out free of charge to all good-looking young men who chance to call on them. Mr. Melrose and daughter Miss Winne and Miss Zelma Bailey were among the throng of visitors on Sunday. Doe Davore and Dude Gartner of Santa Ana are among the campers, and one glove from the latter will fetch the heart of an fair damsel. Ramon Aguilar, Jack Landell and Be Porter, who sports a strawberry color mustache, have arrived with a tent and equipments and will stay it out all summer. Kistler's ice cream parlors afford a pleasant place for the young men to regulate the sweethearts with cream, but when the few ones call for more than three, there is a perceptible falling off in the smiles of contentment on the countenances of the young men who chance to be with them. The "Kickers" will give a social hop through the evening, and as they are the people, the prospects are that the affair will be "out of sight." Candy pulling "bees" and surprise parties are beginning to be the fashion, and many pleasant evenings are spent in this way. John Hartung has constructed a park in front of his cottage. He has a few stalks of seaweeds trying to eke out a precarious existence, and a placard adorns the place which reads, "Keep off the Grass." Another called the "carp pond," which is only tiny can filled with water and no fish. "The Hospital." "Old Malda Retreat," "Youn Ladies' Marriage Bureau," and other laughable signs. It is the intention of some of the campers to maintain a small steamer at the beach on which excursion parties will visit the neighboring watering places. Fishing is good, and the juicy clam and muscle abound up the creek at low tide. WESTMINSTER LETTER. My comments in the last issue of THE GAZETTE on the absurdity of maintaining three churches and three ministers of religion in a village like Westminster have given rise to very varied criticism. I am not surprised at this, for the simple reason that about every second or third member of the human family is so constituted as to require a church of his own, and in that church he would like to be both prophet, priest and king, but as these functions are so far out of the reach of the laity, the next thing he would demand would be the exclusive monopoly of the parson. He would run him, wouldn't he? Aye, run him to the State sayjam, or the devil. It is on this principle that there are three churches in Westminster. It was originally a Presbyterian colony, and the Presbyterian church was the first and only one supported by an undivided people, but soon differences of opinion began to crop up. A few vicious tougues attacked the preacher, and the result was the old story—disintegration: "I am of Paul, I of Cephas, and I of Apollus." And so the Congregational church reared its independent spirit and gathered round it the malcontents, and a separatist preacher regaled a vicious, uncharitable congregation with the doctrine most likely to go down with them, viz.: "Stand aside, I am holier than thou." This was of course a Parish arrow aimed at the old Presbyteriana, and then the latter as in duty bound resisted, and thus "brotherly love" and the "charity that thinketh no evil," spread until the little village is now full of them. In the midst of these bickering and Christian vitrol throwing, the Methodists saw a chance to make peace, but they couldn't preach anything without a church, and so they built one, and thus the situation stands—a blot on the escutcheon of Christianity, a commentary on the text, "Behold how those Christians love one another." What has been the outcome of the and spectacle of this bitterness and jealousy and mutual distrust? Simply this, that Westminster is honeycombed with scoptism and the grossest materialism. Ninety per cent of our young men, if you speak to them about religion, will shut you up by asking, "Who made God?" Ex nihilo nihil fit. But man, intelligent, far seeing man is here, and He who made him must be greater than he. Just as the watchmaker is greater than a watch. He who made this eye of mine with its wonderful lance may surely be able to see himself. Certainly; but what these young men fail to see is, how it can be shipped to Chino yesterday, bringing the total shipments for the season up to one thousand tons. To-day the force of shippers go to Buena Park for ten days to ship beets from that point. The season is backward owing to the foggy mornings, and beets have been coming in slowly since the beginning of the shipping season. Yesterday's shipment of 141 tons was the largest so far this season, but when shipments begin again after the Park shipments, the delivery of beets will be larger at the warehouse, and probably 200 tons will be shipped daily. The saccharine tests are of unusual excellence, while the purity of the beets delivered this past week has been altogether unprecedented, going in cases as high as 95 per cent. The following tests of beets are from the chemists' books at the laboratory: SUGAR. PURITY J. Parks. 16.4. 91.0 Johnson & Jessup. 18.5. 95.2 F. Huch. 14.6. 85.1 E. Woodman. 13.8. 79.2 F.

EDITOR GAZETTE.-Permit me to call attention to the necessity for the people of Anaheim and vicinity contributing liberally toward the support of the orphans now in our midst and being cared for by the Sisters at the orphanage.The amount approved by the State for their maintenance is absurdly small,and it is impossible for the Sisters to make personal appeal for assistance.The liberal-spirited people on Analim should give with a free hand Donations of fruit potatoes,vegetables clothing,and,在a word,anything forthe good ofthe orphans,会be most thankfull received by the good Sisterswho are doing such noble work in the cause of humanity A wagonload of melons,或cabbages,或other garden truck-so much of which goes to waste in our orchards and on our farms-would be gratefully received. Before the establishment of the orphanage it was a serious question whether the Sisters' school could be maintained here,the support was so trivial.Indeed,at one time,the propriety of disposing of the school building was discussed.Now that an additional burden has been placed upon the Sisters,let the liberal-spirited people on Anaheim lend a helping hand and do what they can in aid of this noble work of charity.

Beingan experienced brewer, of course he couldnot make anything but a superior brand of beerwith La Habra barley. —"If I were sure that the snake editorof the Gazette wasn't at the Landing," a friend sends word to us,"I would write up a veritable snake adventuro my 'sky terrier'recently had with a rattler.

Keith is popular with the mass ofthe people, his long term of residence here havingmade for him many friends who holdinhim high esteem. If elected to theresponsible office of Supervisor—and to ourmind there is no more importantoffice within the gift of the people of the county—hewill no doubt fill it with credit alike tohimself and the citizens of the Third Supervisor District. —Tim Carroll has erected an ingeniouscontrivance for dumping beets at the SouthernPacific depot, which beats the nettingdumpall hollow. It is a platform constructedso that when the wagon is driven upon it, itis tilted sideways by a lever, and the beetsgo tumbling into the car without furtherlabor. The wagon is given just enough tiltto precipitate the beets into the carwhen the platform is placed in its horizontalposition again, ready for another load of beetsOne day last week Tim dumped a load intwo minutes, which beats the record.Predict that this style of dumping willsupercede dumping by barrels and the nettingprocess.

The election in the irrigation district last Thursday to vote an assessment for the haads beer, which connoisseurs tell us has lately taken on a darker and more melodious tint, and improved in quality, is so much better because La Habra barley is being used in its manufacture. Conrad has a new brewer, and the excellence of his beer is doubtless attributable in no little part to him. Being an experienced brewer, of course he could not make anything but a superior brand of beer with La Habra barley. — "If I were sure that the snake editor of the Gazette wasn't at the Landing," a friend sends word to us, "I would write up a veritable snake adventuro my sky terrier recently had with a ratter. He literally bit off the rattles within a full yard of the tail. It is for his antipathy to snakes that I keep him. I don't want any of them twisting about my boots. Besides, the dog is a less expensive institution than drinks of hydrate of chloral or sulfonal every two hours." — Chauncey Huggans, the eminent Fullton root beer purveyor, who has made the District Attorney so much trouble in trying to convict him of selling liquor without a license, has brought a mandatus action to compel the Supervisors to issue him a saloon license. He was recently fined $50 for dispensing present use beer without a license, but if the Supervisors can be compelled to issue him a license, he will attempt to have it dated back far enough to cover the time of the offense, and so escape payment of the fifty. — Mrs. Lair's seven acre field at Alauites set exclusively to pumpkins is a sight seldom seen on this side of Rockies and certainly never on the other side of them. How the overgrown monsters are to be rolled home is a question worthy the genius of a born inventor of labor saving machinery. A correspondent writes that he is hard up for pumpkins himself but he wouldn't accept the gift of these giants except Mrs. Lair has rolled right up to his barn and guarantees to split once a month as a feed night and morning for his two Jerseys and big Holstion to say nothing of the pigs. — Alcalde Egan of the Independent State of Capistrano got in his deadly work on the resolutions adopted by the Democratic convention at Santa Ana on Saturday. He was chairman of the committee on resolutions, and had a plank inserted against the Reilly funding bill, now before Congress. Incidentally the plank, while directed against the refunding the S. P. debt, is like unto that of Populata favoring government control of railroads, which doubtless met with favor in the convention. As the Alcalde is one of the Santa Fe Directors, it will be seen how well he manipulated his fine Italian hand, not only against a hatied rival corporation, but also in the spreading of molasses to catch pescalos, Savvy? — There is quite a boom on the two-inch wells down in the Alamitos country, and to the small rancher they will be a veritable godsend. A. Y. Long, an old man at sinking 4-inch pipes, has now dropped them and taken onto the two inch. Capt. Bates, of fire insurance fame, has also taken up with the same idea and hence forth tap Long Beach and surrounding neighborhood. The Cap's own well touched water at 229 feet and only cost $115. From all we hear and see, the 7 inch well will soon be an institution of other days, especially in the vicinity of Alamitos and West Anahiem. Of course in the Peatland, where you have only to whistle on a five inch flow, the larger wells will always be popular. — The election in the irrigation district last Thursday to vote an assessment for the board of Equalization during the week, and completed their labors yesterday. They have fixed the tax levy for the current year at ninety cents on $100--fifty cents for running expenses, thirty-five cents for sinking fund and interest on outstanding bonds, and five cents for interest on the electric light bonds to be issued for the maintenance of an electric light system. These latter bonds are not yet issued, but the law requires that interest on bonds be anticipated, it being possible to make the tax levy but once a year, and the levy could not legally go until next year. In fact the bonds could not be sold if provision had not been made to pay the maturing interest. The slight attempt yesterday afternoon to declare the board's action off color falls to the ground. The City Dada are all right, and the electric light proposition is going to carry. — Alex Henry made short work of the artesian wells at the Maybury ranch at Orange last week, once he set his pumping plant to work at them. The well ran dry in no time, and pumping operations had to be abandoned. Of the five wells only one flowed over the pipe, yet this was pumped dry in a short time. One well yielded eighty inches for a portion of the afternoon, but after being pumped for a few hours sent up gravel and went dry. Henry had to pull stakes and return to his ranch, the tooling of his traction engine's whistle being walted to the cars of the populace along about last Saturday evening. Down on Broadway the engine broke through a bridge, but after being settled down when Henry pulled open the throttle and sent it out of there spinning. The capacity of the pump is two hundred inches of water daily and it will be used to raise water from the artesian well at the Caledonia Grove. — We went up to Los Angeles the other day on Conductor Heartt's tram, but the fat and assay conductor was conspicuous by his absence. Since the strike he has been out of the service, and the report is current that he has abandoned railroading permanently Some of the new Santa Fe conductors are what Tim Carroll would technically term "curues." They look through the cars for new passengers at every station like little girls hunting for Easter eggs, tear off a hundred miles too much of the newspaper man's mileage, backthe train up to let sleepy people get off at their stations after passing them, and then, to cap the climax, let the newspaper man walk up town with the red tag in his hat, and every one he meets acosts costs him with: "Been up to Los Angeles today?" He wanders how they all know, and then when he reaches his office and sees the red pasteboard he inwardly reflects that the conductor ought to be out hoeing corn instead of running a train. Among the candidates mentioned for the office of Supervisor, the candidate of Mr. A.H.Cargill of Brookshurst, which is announced in our columns this morning, meets with favorable comment, not only among members of his own political party, but from others as well. Indeed, so far as we are at present able to judge, there will be a general disposition to sink party lines in these lec tion of Supervisor this year; tothe end that he best man forthe place may be elected to represent this district uponthe board.

The amount approves State for their maintenance small, and it is impossible for make personal appeal for as should give with a free hand. Of fruit, potatoes, vegetables, in a word, anything for the orphans, will be most thankfully the good Sisters, who are doing work in the cause of humanity. Of melons, or cabbages, or other stock so much of which goes to orchards and on our farms—fatefully received. The establishment of the orphanage, obvious question whether the Sisar could be maintained here, the so trivial. Indeed, at one time city of disposing of the school is discussed. Now that an addition has been placed upon the liberal-spirited people of and helping hand and do what said of this noble work of charity. A FRIEND OF THE SISTERS. Correspondent Knows Pasadena Star.

Only a light vote was polled, 281 ballots being cast in the five precincts, as follows: For the Indebtedness Against: Anaheim 7 Fulberton 5 Placentia 4 Yorba 10 West Anaheim 57 Total 260 A two-thirds vote was necessary to carry the assessment, and now a subsequent vote must be taken to abandon operations under the district, at which a three-fifths vote will be necessary. The poll closed at 7 o'clock, and The Gazette had an extra on the streets containing the complete vote in the five precincts at 7:45 o'clock. The Directors met on Monday and canvassed the returns, and found them to tally with the figures as given above. The final election to abandon operations will occur after the assessment has been paid—probably along in November or December, although the time for holding it will not be fixed until the meeting of the Directors in September. We are requested to say that any donations of fruit or other farm produce, for the children at the Anaheim Orphan Asylum, which is now ready for the reception of orphans of all denominations from all portions of the county and State, will be thankfully accepted by the Sisters, who have charge of the orphanage. The children are cared for free, by the charity of the people. The school will open on September 31, and there are already thirty-eight children in attendance, being cared for by the Sisters, ready to take up their studies when school begins. After being taught here until the ages of 14 to 15, the boys go north to the asylum at Watsonville, to be taught trades, whence they are started out on their journey through life. Children are brought to the asylum almost daily, four having arrived from San Luis Obispo last week, whose father had died and whose mother had become insane. Three of these unfortunate were accepted, but the fourth, being a child in arms, was sent to the orphanage in Los Angeles. Any donations of fruit, melons or farm produce for these unfortunate children will be thankfully received, and the donations should be liberal indeed. Any information regarding the orphanage will be A. H. Cargill of Brookshurst, which is announced in our column this morning, meets with favorable comment, not only among members of his own political party, but from others as well. Indeed, so far as we are at present able to judge, there will be a general disposition to sink party lines in these sections of Supervisor this year, to the end that the best man for the place may be elected to represent this district upon the board. The questions which will no doubt prove to be of the greatest interest to the voters of this precinct, and have the uppermost significance during the campaign, are the possible division of the township and the cutting up of our school district—the latter proposition, happily, by the erection of a new school-house to the southwest of us, being rendered so much of an impossibility as practically to place it out of the canvass. Both questions, however, have had considerable interest for us, and both of course will be combatted tooth and nail by the voters of this city and West Anaheim. Mr. Cargill being a level-headed gentleman of experience, is calculated to treat these and other questions to come before the board, with deliberation and judgment and to act for the beat interests of his constituents. If elected to the office he will doubtless make a conscious official. An indefatible worker for the interests of his district, and a man whose mental weight and self assertive qualities will make an impression upon the board—something which we are sorry to say, we have stood in need of for lo! those many years. In the lengthening and widening of Anaheim, where are we and whither are we tending? The growth of a town depends for most part on its surrounding country, and this is just what is multiplying Anaheim by two. Two years ago, down in the country west of us, Mr. Tom Hill looked down on Mr. W. H. Ball, and there the two sat watching each other across a silent prairie. And to-day from 50 to 60 new homes dot the landscape and from 10 to 20 artesian wells help to irrigate it. In point of fact, between Westminster and Anaheim there is not a yard of the company's land for sale—there are, of course, several acres of alkali that will never change hands; even a sugar beet would die at the look of it. The trade of all these new settlers comes direct to Anaheim, and this explains the new blocks Federman and Hart and Mrs. Koll have added to the city, to say nothing about the two extensive stores in the vicinity of the Southern Pacific depot. It must be a comforting thought to the farming people who live near a rising and energetic city. A growing city adds materially to the value of their lands, and they can always dispose of their products to merchants imbued with a spirit of competition. We have half a dozen or more merchants, all alive, obliging courteous and brimful of energy and enterprise. The electric light will be a vast improvement, and we trust no obstacle will be allowed to stand in the way of it coming. Plough Trial. John Schaumann will have a field trial of the Spalding Rotary Plow on Monday morning, August 20th, at 9 o'clock on the Marden tract, 3 mile west of Southern Pacific depot. A cordial invitation is extended to all to attend and see this new rotary plow work. JOHN SCHAUMAN PERSONAL MENTION: Mr. P. Davis is down from San Francisco buying wool. Miss Nora Stone leaves on Saturday for a month's visit with relatives in San Diego. Mrs. John Rimpan is in from Yuma, visiting with her parents during the warm spell in the Territory. Mr. Sam Foderman and family took their departure on Tuesday for Los Angeles where they will in future reside. Mr. Witte is enjoying a visit from a nephew, from Portland, Or., who is down for a few days previous to his departure for the East. Jacob and Emile Dreyfus, who will be re-railed by all old-time Anaheimers, were in town yesterday, en route from San Diego to San Francisco. Dr. W. Capps, a recent arrival from the Blue Grass State, has located in Anaheim, and has opened an office in the Matz building, up stairs. Dr. Capps' professional card appears in another column. Mrs. Vinson having disposed of her millinery store leaves to-morrow for Pomona, where she goes into the millinery business. A disastrous fire at Pomona on Monday burned within a few doors of her new place business. The family carry with them the host wishes of a host of friends for their future welfare. Capt. Wredo returned last week from a camping trip to Warner's ranch, where he remained some days in company of a distinguished coterie of gentlemen, but came away satisfied because he had to do all the cooking. He thinks of taking in the Indian pasta at Temecula next week. N. A. Blanchard of Santa Barbara was in town a few days ago, purchasing lemons which are becoming scarce and higher priced every day. He went out to see the Brooks-Grat grove, and pronounced the lemons the last he had seen in California in many a day. Richardists with good lemons for sale areaping a harvest. W. H.

Potter returned last Saturday from his trip to New York, where he was called in May last to settle up the estate of deceased brother. He found the weather odd enough to freeze a man to death on his arrival there, but before he left the thermometer went up to 108 degree, and 85 degrees at that point is equal to 100 here. Mr. Potter is glad to get back to California, and looks for the arrival of some of his relatives as soon as they can make arrangements immigration to California. Frank Vegely of Santa Ana announces himself as a candidate for Assessor, subject to the decision of the Republican convenant. Mr. Vegely is at present chief deputy of the Assessor's office, and much of the credit which the office enjoys for being managed in such clear-headed and business-like manner, is attributable to his efficiency. He ought to make a strong race for the office, if elected will no doubt administer its affairs to the satisfaction of the taxpayers of the county. Jake Rass announces himself as a candidate for re-election as Assessor. This office one of the most important in the gift of people, as the matter of assessment and taxes is one that possesses a peculiar interest in the citizens of the county. During Mr. Rass's administration of the office there has been nothing but praise for him, the office being one against which no "kick" has been registered during his incumbency. He has passed all taxpayers in a fair and impartial manner, and has not permitted the rich to escape to the injury of the poor. Jake is long politically, and will be one of the oldest men to beat in the county. Frank Ey, who is making the race for County Treasurer, was in town on Monday taking hands and looking after his political success. He informs us that he is stronger than ever, and that if he secures the nomination saltpeter wouldn't save his opinion on election day. A gentleman well known in county politics informed us the day that Frank can have the nomination if he wants it, and that he will show surprising strength in the convention. Frank is good fellow, and as there is nothing of chronic office seeker in his personality, he doubtless make it interesting for his opinions in the convention. Sheriff Lacy announces himself as a candidate for re-election. He has made a courteous and capable official, and the way he two years ago attests the fact that he ought to be this year a pretty hard man to eat. Lacy has a habit of appearing once in his office as upon the dusty roads of chuck holes throughout the county, indicating in this particular in distinguished contrast to other officials, into whose office ordinary voter cannot enter without off his hat and knocking, and then introduced to the high-you-muck attack, who has quite forgotten all about it. Lacy has made a good official, and if voted again will doubtless perform the duties of the office in the same satisfactory manner as has characterized his administra- FOR BARGAINS IN Dry Goods & Dress Goods CLOTHING Boots and Shoes, Etc.
