HAPPENINGS OF THE WEEK Obstructions Ordered Out of the Ditches. Water Running Along in the Sycamore Street Ditch, the Dam Having Washed Out Soon After Having Been Put In, but the Dam in Olive Street Ditch Remains—Meeting of Water Shareholders to Discuss the Propriety of Enlarging the Water Limits—Substantial Work Being Put In at the Olive Bridge — Local Brevities — Minor Mention and Personals. A number of the stockholders in the water company held an informal session at the Directors' office on Saturday last and discussed the propriety of enlarging the water limits by taking in sufficient acreage to dispose of the 1,000 shares of the treasury stock now up for sale. The meeting was held in response to an invitation of the Directors to Messrs. Fay, Meredith, Ross, G. A. Hunter, McDermont, Key and Woerms to come together and confer with them and if possible arrive at some amicable understanding as to taking in more territory. It was soon apparent that any attempt to enlarge would be vigorously objected to. Mr. Ross said that those stockholders who had opposed enlargement at the recent election had been given representation on the committee to meet with the Directors only to the extent of three members, while those who favored enlargement had four. The meeting would be used he thought as a subterfuge to put out the report that the committee favored enlargement. Mr. McFadden stated that if everyone came to the meeting prejudiced one way or another, nothing would be accomplished. The meeting was for the purpose of discussing the propriety of enlargement, not for voting upon it, and determining if an amicable arrangement could not be arrived at between the Directors and those opposed, to enlarge and dispose of the surplus stock. Mr. Fay said he did not think Mr. Ross was doing the matter justice. He was assuming too much to say the committee was either favored or opposed to enlargement. We are all here to be convinced by argument as to the necessity of enlargement or not. Mr. Ross—Not any argument that could be made here today could convince us of the propriety of enlargement. Judge Blennorrhassett explained that the mont moved that it be the sense of the committee to supply all surplus water to outsiders at reasonable rates to continue until such time as the Jurupa suit is settled. Mr. Key seconded the motion. Mr. Staley said that if we sold water outside of the district, we would get ourselves into trouble. Mr. Hunter moved to amend by taking in the lands saking to come in. Mr. Meredith seconded the motion. On a vote Mr. Hunter's motion, which was ruled out of order by the chair as an amendment, but offered as a substitute, was lost, Ross, McDermont and Key voting no, and Hunter and Meredith yes, Mr. Fay being left high and dry in the chair, and there being no tie, not voting. Mr. Fay, however, heartily favors enlargement. Mr. McDermont's motion was then carried by the same vote and the meeting adjourned. The Board of Directors then went into an executive session on the damming of the ditches by the Burgomeisters. WATER BOARD AND BURGOMEISTER. THE OPERA-BOUFFE LEGAL TILT BEETWEEN THE TWO CONTINUES OBSTRUCTIONS IN THE DITCHES ORDERED OUT. The City Trustees of the city of Anaheim desire the Anaheim Union Water Company to apply for a franchise to maintain their ditches upon the streets of the city. The water board desire to apply for that franchise. Then why is it necessary to put the people to the expense of bringing a lawsuit to determine which is right and which is wrong? The reason is because the entire matter has degenerated into a sparring match between eminent attorneys to secure points in the case of Mrs. Hansen against the water company for $20,000 damages. As the people pay the bills, we presume it is all right, and that they will have no objection to paying a good big fee to get them out of the labyrinth of legal difficulties into which they are being graciously drawn. Last week Marshal Steadman, in response to orders from the City Trustees, placed obstructions in the cement ditch on Sycamore street and the earthen ditch on Olive. The dam in 'the Sycamore street ditch washed out during the night and water has since been gurgling its way uninterruptedly along its course. The water board at its meeting on Saturday appointed a committee, consisting of Messrs. Crowther and Spencer, to wait upon the City Trustees, and inasmuch as there is really no difference in the position of either committee to supply all surplus water to outsiders at reasonable rates to continue until such time as the Jurupa suit is settled. Mr. Key seconded the motion. Mr. Hunter moved to amend by taking in the lands saking to come in. Mr. Meredith seconded the motion. On a vote Mr. Hunter's motion, which was ruled out of order by the chair as an amendment, but offered as a substitute, was lost, Ross, McDermont and Key voting no, and Hunter and Meredith yes, Mr. Fay being left high and dry in the chair, and there being no tie, not voting. Mr. Fay, however, heartily favors enlargement. Mr. McDermont's motion was then carried by the same vote and the meeting adjourned. The Board of Directors then went into an executive session on the damming of the ditches by the Burgomeisters.

The meeting was for the purpose of discussing the propriety of enlargement, not for voting upon it, and determining if an amicable arrangement could not be arrived at between the Directors and those opposed, to enlarge and dispose of the surplus stock. Mr. Fay said he did not think Mr. Ross was doing the matter justice. He was assuming too much to say the committee was either favored or opposed to enlargement. We are all here to be convinced by argument as to the necessity of enlargement or not. Mr. Ross—Not any argument that could be made here to-day could convince us of the propriety of enlargement. Judge Blenerhassett explained that the meeting was not for the purpose of voting upon the question at all. The board had invited some of the stockholders to come together and discuss the matter for the purpose of submitting the proposition to the next annual stockholders' meeting. Mr. Spencer said that he had attended a meeting at Fullerton, during the recent campaign for enlargement, and had met with the assertion that most, if not all of those opposed to taking in 6,600 acres, favored enlargement by embracing a lesser amount of land. Mr. Ross—At the proper time and under the proper conditions. Mr. Spencer—This meeting is for the purpose of discussing whether it is not better for the interests of the stockholders to enlarge now. Mr. Ross asked that the map of the district be brought in and the portions to be taken in pointed out. Engineer Rogers was sent for to explain the map of the new territory seeking admission, and meantime Mr. McFadden pointed out the location of the Haynes tract of 450 acres, on which it was proposed to locate 100 shares at $15 per share. Mr. Ross said that water would not do any good on that land, and the land ought not to be taken in. Water had certain duties to perform, and should not be permitted to run to waste on these sandpatches. Mr. Crowther suggested that the meeting organize and that if discussion showed that the stockholders did not favor enlargement, none would be attempted. Mr. Fay was thereupon elected chairman and Hugo Wetzel secretary. Mr. Ross addressed the chair and stated that he desired to do justice to the subject; but on a recent visit to South Riverside he had consulted an eminent engineer who had informed him that if the water limits were enlarged by the addition of even a single acre, the Jurpa people would be certain to win their case against this company, and he therefore would oppose any enlargement until such time as the Jurpa suit was settled. He was informed that if it could be shown that we had an excess of water, it would have to go to Jurpa. Mr. McDermott expressed similar views, but astonished the natives by saying that if any water was apportioned Jurpa from the amount in the river, it would have to be taken from the portion allotted to the Anaheim water company—the Santa Ana company could not be disturbed! When the Jurpa people take our water away from us, we will have to rattle around and get enough for the present stockholders, not to speak of the outsiders. Mr. McFadden characterized this all as a "bluff," and said the Anaheim water company was organized to supply 12,000 acres of land, while at present only 7,000 acres are being irrigated. Santa Ana, with half the water in the river at the point of division between her water company and ours, irrigates 16,000 acres, and he thought there would be no difficulty in enlarging by taking in enough land to all use all the water that we could get. One could get any kind of opinion he wanted regarding water at South Riverside or elsewhere—they are all experts—but the assertion that the Jurpa would win its case by our enlarging had no terrors for him. He asked the name of the eminent engineer, but it was not forthcoming.

roadtoRiversideinsgoodpassablecondition Mr. McDermont characterized this all as "bluff," and said the Anaheim water company was organized to supply 12,000 acres of land, while at present only 7,000 acres are being irrigated. Santa Ana, with half the water in the river at the point of division between her water company and ours, irrigates 16,000 acres, and he thought there would be no difficulty in enlarging by taking in enough land to use all the water that we could get. One could any kind of opinion he wanted regarding water at South Riverside or elsewhere—they are all experts—but the assertion that the Jurupa would win its case by our enlarging had no terrors for him. He asked the name of the eminent engineer, but it was not forthcoming. A general discussion arose when the Chair observed that the speakers were talking from the question and they were ruled out of order. Hugo Wetzel took the floor and argued against enlargement, on the ground that he had not been able to discover where the surplus water was. Mr. Key asked the Superintendent if there was any surplus during the months of June, July and August of this year. Supt. Sheppard stated that accurate measurements had been made of all waste water, and the same could be found in the daily zanjero's reports. Mr. Staley said that he had recently been up the ditch, and had seen such splendid improvements that in his estimation at least 30 per cent more water was coming down than during his term as Superintendent some years ago, when as much land was irrigated as at present. He thought that if we had expended $25,000 or $30,000 in making substantial improvements, and could not have more water than we had six or seven years ago, it would be rather a curious thing. During his incumbency as Superintendent at least 50 per cent was lost from the headgate down to the Tuffree reservoir, and 60 per cent of the remainder was lost below the reservoir in getting it to irrigators. All this loss was now done away with, and he thought we ought to enlarge the district. Mr. McDermont said that those who wished to come into the district should construct their own ditches and maintain them, and when the company have a surplus of water, they could dispose of it to outsiders. Mr. Fowler was called upon, as one desiring to purchase 100 shares to cover land lying outside the district, and said that he was willing to prepare his ditches and take water under these circumstances. Then he could give his walout grove a good soaking in winter, when water was plentiful, and maybe his trees wouldn't need so much in summer. Mr. Rogers came in and pointed out on the map lands to the extent of 1013 acres desiring to come in, all of which would be stocked at a share per acre at $15 per share. Mr. Ross said that some of this land was worthless for water, and that water was sought to be placed on it in order to sell it to tenderfeet. Mr. Spencer questioned these remarks, and said that if these outsiders desired to come in and buy stock and improve their property, and we had sufficient water to sell to them, they should be permitted to come in. After a lengthy discussion, Mr. McDern. This question has been coming up before various Councils for a number of years. The city has, until recently, constructed and kept in repair, at its own expense, many bridges over the ditches used by the Anaheim Union Water Company. This was an injustice to the tax-payers of Anaheim. The Water Company built and kept repaired the bridges on all other parts of its system; why should it not do likewise for Anaheim? As the Water Company showed no disposition to comply with requests for placing and repairing bridges where required, the Board of Town Trustees decided about a year ago to commence this suit in order to determine what the rights of both parties were in the matter. Soon after the suit was started a committee from the Water Company appeared before the Council with the view of arriving at a satisfactory agreement. This committee stated that it was the sense of the Water Board that they would in future construct and keep in repair the bridges within the city limits, and asked for further time, stating that they would ascertain just what ditches were required by them and that they would then apply for a "blanket franchise" to cover all the ditches needed. This franchise would define the rights of both parties. This the Council was willing to do, so everything appeared in a fair way for a satisfactory settlement, and pending this adjustment I was under the impression, as were other members of the Council, that no further legal action was being taken. I was therefore surprised when the City Attorney at the last meeting reported that he had secured judgment for the city, in doing which, no doubt, he only did his duty. The City Council had requested the Water Company on different occasions to construct a bridge over its ditch on Olive street, but no action toward complying with the request was taken by them, and as the site of the bridge in question now belonged to the city, a resolution was passed at the last meeting ordering the filling in of the ditch at this point so that vehicles could pass over. The placing of dams at the heads of Sycamore and Olive street ditches was in line with the judgment rendered in favor of Anaheim and was simply an act by which the City secured full legal possession. The Water Board has no one to blame in this matter but themselves. They have had ample time to secure a franchise, but either wilfully or negligently failed to do so. I believe, however, that the Water Company and City Council will in the future work harmoniously together. The Water Company has recently made some valuable improvements here which are a credit to that company and the town of Anaheim and are fully appreciated by the tax-payers and consumers of water. In closing I will say that the City Council is ready, and has been for some time past, to grant the Anaheim Union Water Company a franchise for ditches wherever it may be necessary to have them for the proper distribution of water and give them all the privileges they can reasonably ask for, the city to protect its interests by such reasonable provisions and regulations as may appear necessary. This is no more than fair and just, and I think the members of the Water Board will so consider it and take action accordingly. Respectfully submitted, William L. Schub, the eighteen-year-old Orange boy, who was found guilty in the Superior Court of burglarizing the Orange thorpe schoolhouse and stealing a number of books from the library, was on Monday sentenced to two and a half years in San Quentin prison. The young fellow had been implicated in other burglaries about Orange and seems to have built up quite a respectable reputation as a criminal. Some fifteen miles up the Santa Ana canyon a force of men are now at work constructing a new thoroughfare around a point of hills and putting the road to Riverside in good passable condition. The work of building the new road, which runs around a precipitous bluff some fifteen feet above the river, is quite a bit of engineering, but under the supervision of Engineer Kellogg, who was found at the scene of operations when our reporter drove up in company of Supervisor Potter on Saturday, a good substantial job is being done. The Chino sugar factory closed down for the season on Thursday last, after a successful run of 132 days since July 5th. The output is 200,000 bags of sugar, of 100 pounds weight each, or twenty million pounds, worth at four and a half cents $900,000, or at 5 cents, a million. The money expended for beets we are reliably informed equaled $360,000. The factory must have made a mint of money, some estimates going as high as $200,000. A report has been current that since the arrival of Henry T. Oxnard, President of the works from the East, it has been decided to erect another factory, and that Anaheim is the point where the works will probably be erected. The Supervisors are expanding some $2500 upon the levee work at the Olive bridge, and immediately south of the structure the Garden Grove people have a force of men engaged in putting down a row of piles for a distance of a quarter of a mile, to be used as an embankment to keep the waters in the river. The levee work is probably most substantial ever put in at this point, and we hope it will be of sufficient strength to withstand the winter's freshels. A good solid crib approach to the west side of the bridge has been put in, and in the opinion of County Surveyor Kellogg it will stand the rush of any waters that may come against it. It is constructed of layers of rock, brush and gravel and looks as if it ought to stand. Further up the river wing dams and levees are being constructed. Mr. Webb being engaged upon it with a large force of men and teams. The entire job is under the supervision of Supervisor Potter, who is carrying out some very commendable ideas in this kind of levee work. When the bridge was constructed some seven years ago, one could drive under it with a good sized wagon, but the sands have so filled up the river bed that it is now in places impossible to do so. Mr. Potter's idea is to open up a channel in the river near the ocean, and permit this waste Kleinigkeiten. Chamber of Commerce meets at the this evening. Many Ghave invitations out for their bring ball and supper.

N. L. Gal-Santa Ana has the job of moving. Evans has secured the contract in the levee work at the Fifth-ridge at Santa Ana, his bid being that of Mr. Damron, his only com-mment of 1865. Traveling of the Olive bridge road means of transforming what probably the worst piece of road twenty into a particularly fine thorns are current that the proposition to erect a sugar factory here the farmers a fifth interest when paid has been amended so as to this instead. An Kistler has purchased the adjoin-shot owned by him at the couch's blacksmith shop, which 48-foot front, and it is reported that a two story brick building. Ana will provide a rock pile for each tramp will be required to do much rock before he gets any. This is about the only way to his class of people, and it ought of sand with which the river bed is now engulped to be moved out to the sea. He is of the opinion that it could be done and will probably give it a trial. For the present, however, there is not sufficient money at hand to do this, and we must content ourselves with strengthening the river's banks and protecting the bridge, which is being done in a substantial and workmanlike manner. Judge Towner has decided that the revocation of Chris Miller's bar license by the City Trustees of Santa Ana was illegal, and the saloon is now open and in full blast again. Miller applied for and was granted, in the first place, a license to maintain a saloon at Santa Ana, but after opening failed to comply with the requirements of the recently adopted liquor ordinance requiring all tables and chairs to be removed and the doing away with all window curtains, screens, or painted glass. The Trustees met immediately thereupon and revoked his license and the saloon was closed. Judge Towner some days thereafter decided the liquor ordinance unconstitutional, and Miller then opened up again. He was arrested for running a saloon without a license and was convicted in the Justice's court, but on appeal won his case in the Superior Court. And the saloon remains open. One of the best managed and most tastefully arranged resorts in Southern California is the Reception restaurant at Fullerton, conducted by Chauncey Huggans, who is known far and wide as an experienced and obliging caterer. Mr. Huggans gives personal supervision to his business, and through his popularity as well as untiring efforts to please his customers has made his restaurant and bar an ideal resort for the hungry wayfarer. The best of meals are served at all hours of the day and night, lunches are put up, and oysters are served in the best of style. The restaurant is a credit to our neighboring town, and we are glad to note that the proprietor is working up a profitable business. A warrant was issued one day last week for the arrest of our old friend Paul Golter, who was charged with maintaining a saloon at Fullerton without the formality of providing himself with a license. Paul recently was sued by his better half for a divorce, which was granted her, but at the time we took possession to remark that the old man was more sinned against sinning. When the officers went over to Golter's place they found Golter and his wife living together in peace and harmony, and when the warrant was read to him the old man asked to be permitted to drive alone to Santa Ana to employ an attorney for his defense. He was permitted to do so, but it is believed he came to Anaheim and took one of the evening trains north. At any rate he has not since been seen, and Constable Great would like to PERSONAL MENTION.

The company was heralded as having played to crowded houses in the Angelic town, and it was even hinted at that they were none other than the celebrated Lycos theater company of New York. When the tickets sold for admission were seen to bear the name of the Lycos company, the impression was strengthened that they were really for the arrest of our old friend Paul Golter, who was charged with maintaining a caloon at Fullerton without the formality of provid­ing himself with a license. Paul recently was sued by his better half for a divorce, which was granted her, but at the time we took occasion to remark that the old man was more sinned against than sinning.

At any rate he has not since been seen, and Constable Great would like to have the pleasure of meeting him. —An unfortunate accident happened on the street-car line Tuesday evening about half-past 6, shortly after the arrival of the evening Santa Fe train, whereby one of the street car horses suffered the breaking of his left hind leg and had to be killed. Arthur Lewis was driving the horse, which was har­nessed to the rear car, with three passengers aboard, and his brother Fred was driving an empty car ahead of him. When the latter had passed the switch in front of Lewis' barn he put on the brakes and brought his car to a standstill, and the rear car collided with it before the horse attached to it could be stopped. When the cars were about to come together the horse turned out of the track, but his hind leg was caught between them, with the result that the leg was very badly broken. He had to be killed with a blow upon the head with a sledge. The animal was one of the best in the barn and that the accident should have occurred is to be regretted. —Quite a well-founded and widespread opinion prevails that county officers will have to be elected next fall, a recent decision of the Supreme Court holding the new County Government bill, providing among other things for a four years' tenure of office instead of two years as heretofore, to be defective. While the court's decision does not touch upon the point of the tenure of office, yet sufficient doubt is cast upon that feature of the new law to envelop its legality in grave doubt, and probably a case will be taken to the Supreme Court for a decision upon this point. One alleged defect in the tenure of office act is neither San Francisco or Fresno are affected by it, having by some peculiar method of reasoning been exempted from its operations. There has always been a feeling that the law which operates to make terms of all the Supervisors expire at the same time in this county, while in all the others those elected from the odd and even numbered districts were elected at alternate elections, has seemed to laymen at least in violation of all precedents if not of the constitution itself. As an act under which the last election call was issued operates differently in different counties in regard to all but two of the county officers, there is no doubt but at the proper time legal action will be taken to obtain a decision that will settle this question, and many are inclined to believe that the result will compel another election of county officers next fall. —About the worst fake in the way of travel­ing shows that it was ever our misfortune to witness was the Trilby aggregation of Los Angeles barnstormers who appeared at the Opera house one night last week.
