HAPPENINGS OF THE WEEK The City Trustees, the Lady and the Side-Walk. Asked for Permission to Leave Part of the Sidewalk at the Park as at Present, Several Inches Above the Grade, But the Burgomelsters Sternly Say Her Nay—Order for Putting in the Crosswalks Countermanded, Owing to Low Funds—Mr. Mauerhan's Application for Rebate of Taxes Denied—Local Brevities—Personal Mention. The City Council met in regular session on Tuesday evening, Mayor Rust in the chair and all members present. The Ordinance Committee introduced for first reading an ordinance granting the Sunset Telephone Company a franchise to maintain a telephone exchange in town. The Committee on Public Improvements reported the letting of a contract for putting down crosswalks to Kuebler & Stone, at 12½ cents per square foot. Seven walks had been contracted for at a cost of $30 apiece. Trustee Lewis made a verbal report of the action taken by himself and Trustees Rast and Conrad in ordering out the obstructions in the ditches. He stated that the committee of the water board who had requested that the obstructions be removed assured the Trustees that no advantage would be taken of the fact that the same had been removed. The committee stated they desired to run water through the ditches to irrigators who were anxious to get water, and agreed that the city authorities might close the ditches if they saw fit to do so, after the delivery of the water. On these stipulations he had signed an order to the Superintendent of Streets, directing him to remove the obstructions. The dam in the Sycamore ditch had been washed out shortly after having been put in, but that in the Olive ditch had not been removed. He had asked the water board to put their proposition in writing, and in return had been requested to have the City Attorney draw up an agreement be renters of the lots, he said, had cleaned them, and then the Marshal had come upon the scene with his men and cleaned them again. This extra charge for cleaning had been taxed against the lots and been paid, and Mr. Mauerhan asked that, having been paid twice, the money be refunded. Marshal Steadman showed in a very few words that petitioner had been misinformed, and that while some of the occupants of the lots had cleared parts of their street frontage, he had to clean the weeds from the sides. He had allowed a rebate of $140, but the additional charge was he thought extremely liberal for the work. The Mayor announced that the evidence was such as to support the Marshal and that no rebate could be allowed. Trustee McWilliams said that in view of the low condition of the general fund, he thought it inadvisable to put down crosswalks. These would cost the city $30 apiece, and as there are seven, which would amount to $210, and there was only, according to the Clerk's report, $407 63 in the general fund, he advised that the work be deferred indefinitely. It was no ordered, and there will be no crosswalks this winter. Bill of Ben Hiss for $21.90 for strawing West Broadway, Cut to $16.90 and a warrant ordered drawn in payment. Adjourned.

The Woelke residence is rapidly near completion, and is assuming proportions a very handsome residence.

The La Habra valley people are moving for the formation of a school district, to be formed of parts of Fallerton, Placentia and Orangethorpo district. Contractor Porter has the brick work on the new Deutsch block completed, and thirteen iron corrices and timbers are being placed in position, and the lathers are at work. Trustees that no advantage would be taken of the fact that the same had been removed. The committee stated they desired to run water through the ditches to irrigators who were anxious to get water, and agreed that the city authorities might close the ditches if they saw fit to do so, after the delivery of the water. On these stipulations he had signed an order to the Superintendent of Streets, directing him to remove the obstructions. The dam in the Sycamore ditch had been washed out shortly after having been put in, but that in the Olive ditch had not been removed. He had asked the water board to put their proposition in writing, and in return had been requested to have the City Attorney draw up an agreement between the two corporations as a temporary settlement of the affairs existing between them. That official had done so, and a copy of the agreement had been submitted to the committee, but deeming that their signatures might tend to still further complicate matters they declined to sign it until advised by their attorney. Here the matter rested. He had been advised that the water company would ask for a franchise at the next meeting of the board, and that its engineer was now going over the ditches to see if all the old ones were necessary and ascertain if any new ones were needed. Mrs. Mitchell appeared before the board in reference to the sidewalk matter at the Park at the corner of Center and Los Angeles streets. She had been advised that some of the cement blocks in the old sidewalk could be used in the new, and asked permission to use them. The new sidewalk would be put down where necessary, she said, but she thought the good portions of the old walk ought to be permitted to remain. It appeared that the present walk is from three to three and a half inches too high, and while some of the blocks were intact, it would be impolitic to accede to the lady's request. Trustee Lewis took up the grade of the walk, and said the same matter had been brought to the attention of the Trustees when putting down the cement walks on Los Angeles street. The board had conformed to the proper grade in all instances and would have to do the same in this case. The old sidewalk is too narrow, and a new curb must be put in, and to give the walk the necessary slant to conform to the curb would be asking too much. The slope in the length of the walk, which the lady stated was to be met with quite frequently in Los Angeles, would perhaps not be so bad, but the slope sideways would be out of the question. Trustee Helmsen suggested that the matter was now in the hands of the contractors, and out of the power of the council. The chair stated that there could not be much saving by keeping portions of the old walk anymore, and thought a new walk would be preferable. The lady said the saving would be about $50. Trustee Lewis took a mathematical turn and figured out that the saving would be $29 25 for a 6½ foot walk, and $31 25 for a seven foot walk. Trustee Conrad stated that it would be too bad to disfigure the nice three-story brown stone front building which ought to be on the lot by having a patched-up sidewalk in front of it. The lady, seeing the council were opposed to carrying out her sidewalk ideas, then asked that the city purchase the cement blocks that were yet serviceable and use them for crosswalks. Trustee Lewis—the council will give you permission to use the blocks in the two crosswalks at the corner, and will charge you nothing for the use of the street.[Snickers.]** Contractor Groat was present and stated that the blocks would look nice in front of the brewery.[More snickers.]] Herr Conrad—If you'll send them down to the brewery, I will give you permission to put them down in the yard.[More snickers.]** This ended the discussion about the sidewalk, and the lady retired.

City Attorney Chynoweth, who had gone down to his office to procure a copy of the agreement submitted to the water committee for their signatures, here submitted the same, as follows: To the Honorable Board of Trustees of the City of Anaheim—Gentlemen: The undersigned, having been on the 16th day of November, 1985, appointed as a committee by the Board of Directors of the Anaheim Union Water Company to confer with the Trustees of the City of Anaheim, in regard to the use of the irrigating ditches on Sycamore street and on Olive street in the City of Anaheim with full power to act. We do hereby agree, on behalf of and for the said Anaheim Union Water Company request that said Anaheim Union Water Company be permitted to use the ditch on Olive street, between Santa Ana street and Broadway street, and the ditch on Sycamore street, between East street and West street, for the purpose of running water through the same. We do hereby agree, on behalf of and for the said Anaheim Union Water Company, that such use shall not in any manner interfere with or infringe upon the right of the City of Anaheim, to have full control, possession, power and authority of and over said ditches, nor shall such use, or any action that the Board of Trustees of the City of Anaheim may take upon this request be construed in any way to be a franchise in favor of the Anaheim Union Water Co. The Chair thought the agreement had dwelt unnecessarily upon the rights of the city in the ditches in question. He suggested that instead of reading that the agreement "would not infringe upon the rights of the City of Anaheim," that the words "may have" be added, to read "such rights as the city may have." He was not disposed to believe, even with the judgment in favor of the city, that the water company had no rights on Sycamore street. The ditch had been there thirty or forty years, and he did not think there would be much doubt as to its right to remain. The City Attorney said that he had made the agreement as strong as the judgment, and did not feel himself at liberty to make it anything less. He added that while the water company once no doubt had rights upon the street, they have at present, under the judgment of the court, no right whatever upon Sycamore and Olive streets. Pending the application of the water board for a franchise, the matter went over without action. Dan Mauerhan appeared before the board and asked for a rebate of $2.75 which he had been charged by the City Marshal for cleaning the sidewalks in front of a number of lots owned by his father in the Center tract. The Lumber is on the ground for a new store to be erected by B.F. Pritchard in front of his warehouse. The experimental creamery company are more than satisfied as to results. Mr. Chevallery says this is the country for a creamery. He has never in his experience seen such a superior quality of milk. Fifty-two pounds of butter to a thousand pounds of milk. Mr. Chevally is also making cream for cocoa, the most delicious article of diet yet seen for cakes, puddings and the like, and his cheeses are exceedingly tempting. Dr. Ed. Johnson will move down to the Park soon. The Doctor is very successful as a physician and as an enterprising citizen he is one of the most reliable. Mrs. Dickey has moved to Orangethorpe, and Gov. J.A. Whitaker to one of his cottages known as Park Villa. Miss Mosseman has an assortment of stamped and unstamped linen, also a line of embroidery silks. Card of Thanks. ANAHEIM, Nov. 16, 1895. We wish to send our sincere thanks to the neighbors and friends of Buena Park and vicinity for their kindness in assisting us through the sickness, and helping to remove our dear wife and mother to her resting place. WILLIE E. DAVIS AND FAMILY. Fine Eastern cheese at H.A. Dickel's. For Rent. Building on Center St., belonging to Mrs. M. Blanchard; suitable for bakery, butcher shop or store. Apply to Mr. Pauchoon, in adjoining premises. Go to Miller & Nagel for all kinds of shelf hardware, cutlery, Bridge Beach stoves and ranges. Mrs. Pauline Golter of Fullerton was arrested for selling liquor without a license, and was to have had her trial before a Santa Ana Judge on Monday. Judge and jury were on hand ready for the trial, but the lady and the arresting officer failed to appear, and the charge against her was for the time dismissed. Paul Golter, who was arrested on a similar charge, is now said to be on his way to Germany, having skipped the country and left his wife to fight it out with the courts. Paul has a great head. Mrs. Golter was arrested for selling beer, but insists it was only sarsaparilla and iron. Mrs. W.B.Meek, who resides at Camptonville, Cal., says her daughter was for several years troubled at times with severe cramps in the stomach, and would be in such agony that it was necessary to call in a physician. Having read about Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy she concluded to try it. She found that it always gave prompt relief. It was seldom necessary to give the second dose. "It has not only saved us lots of worry and time," she says, "but also doctor bills. It is my opinion that every family should have a bottle of this remedy in the house." For sale by Derge. Stephen Kistler, proprietor of the Boston Bakery, keeps the best of fresh bread, pies and cakes. Goods delivered to all parts of the city. Corner Los Angeles and Cypress streets. —Stern Bros.' establishment is being given a new coat of paint, inside and out. The interior of the establishment will undergo a number of changes that will make it one of handsomest stores in Southern California. A broad stairway will lead from the center of the lower floor to the floor above, where a large part of the stock will be on display. Cash carriers will be put in, and the whole interior given the appearance of a metropolitan establishment. The Stern Bros. are rustlers from away back, and their store would be a credit to any thriving community. Painters Middleham and Bustamante are manipulating the brushes. —The Supervisors of Riverside county have submitted a proposition to the Supervisors of this county, as well as those of other counties of Southern California, to adopt a uniform wide tire ordinance for the preservation of the county roads. It has been found difficult to maintain or enforce such an ordinance in one county when adjoining counties make no such provision. It is to be hoped that this proposition will be acted upon favorably by all the counties. It is a fact that needs no explanation, that the roads can be kept in repair at a much less expense when wide tires are used on wagons, and at the same time the draft of the wagon is reduced. It is not contemplated to make the ordinance operative against wagons now in the counties, but only against those brought in in the future; so the benefits to be derived will be realized gradually. —a paper published in a neighboring town printed one day last week this amusing piece of "news" from this city: "Anaheim, November 21st, 1895.-The city trustees came near being trapped by a scheme to regain possession of the ditch, the property of the Anaheim Union water company and which was closed by order Kleinigkeiten.

A Habra valley people are moving formation of a school district, to be parts of Fullerton, Placentia and Rape districts. Doctor Porter has the brick work on Deutsch block completed, and the area and timbers are being placed in and the lathers are at work. the council last week. The water company presented a petition to regen the ditch claiming some parties were needing water for irrigation. Three of the members of the council signed the petition before being aware that if the privilege was granted the company would again be in legal possession of the ditch. The scheme failing the water company will no doubt figure upon some other plan-to gain possession of the coveted property." We should like to know what impression the dissemination of this character of stuff would give the outside world as to the kind of town we live in. But if the outside world would only understand that a man who could evolve such a brilliant idea must be singularly luck-headed, it will pass over his imperfections more in sorrow than in anger, and see again an exemplification of the old adage that it is astonishing what jackasses get themselves into print sometimes. Monday was the last day for the payment of the first installment of this year's State and county taxes, and for several days preceding money flowed into the Tax Collector's office in a continuous stream. Col. Northam of the Stearns Ranchos company paid $8800 as the amount of the company's taxes on Thursday. The new Christian church building is making a conspicuous architectural adornment to its place on Center street. The timbers are up, and give it the appearance of a substantial edifice, and Carpentera Perry and Snyder, assisted by Frank Dyer and Billy Boyd, are pushing the work along as rapidly as the substantial character of the structure will permit. The architect's plans show that it will be when completed a large, roomy and handsome house of worship. Saturday night was the coldest of the season, and much solicitation was felt for the Riverside orange crop, it being known that the weather at that point falls several degrees lower on the average than in our frost-less belt. It was therefore with pleasure that it was learned the following day that though the mercury went down pretty low, it was still several degrees above the freezing point, and that the crop had come out of the cold snap unhurt. At Redlands the thermometer fell to 37°, at Highlands it was 40, and the lowest at Riverside was 39. No damage was done to the orange crop in this section, and the fruit is ripening splendidly. Mr. Botaford has for some time past had under consideration the establishment of a line of tank ships to carry crude oil from Los Angeles to points north on the coast, and negotiations have progressed so favorably. PERSONAL MENTION. Mrs. Rosina Steley is in El Paso, Tex., on a short visit to business interests there. She will be absent some weeks. E. A. Bruck of Los Angeles, representing Blake, Moffitt & Towne, the well-known paper dealers, was in town on Tuesday afternoon and made this office a pleasant call. Read the ad. of H. Harris & Co. of Santa Ana, and if you are in need of a suit or overcoat take a look at their lines. It will do you good. Gus Stern has transferred the scene of his operations from Fullerton to this city, and is now a permanent resident. He makes a good citizen and we glad to number him among our population. Dr. Bailey and his son Lloyd took their departure for San Diego on Monday, where the Doctor goes for the benefit of his health, and may decide to take up his permanent residence in that city.

Mr. Bynon is an expert at spreading on taffy thick, and we expect to see him give the town a big writeup. Miss Jettie Arthur came from Pasadena Saturday evening to spend Sunday with friends in town, and was the guest of Miss Bailey. She returned to her home on Monday. Frank D. Stephenson of Los Angeles, representing the J. A. Folger & Co., coffee and spice house of San Francisco, was in town yesterday afternoon on a short visit in the interest of his firm. Miss Bessie Nelms, formerly superintendent of the telegraph service here, visited with friends in town on Monday and was the guest of Miss Zelma Bailey. Miss Nelms was in the employ of the Postal telegraph at Needles for a time, but is now residing in Los Angeles. Judge Wickham of the Sheriff's office was over on Monday on a short business visit. He insists we will make application to the Supreme Court at its April term to be admitted to practice before that august tribunal. We wouldn't be surprised if Wick made a try for the Superior Judgeship next year. How are we at guessing, Wick? Prof. Keran has lately inaugurated the plan of keeping daily attendance of scholars tabulated upon cards for the per-porture for Los Angeles, where he willgage in the real-estate business. He give attention to the sale of land Anasheim, with which he is familiar is a wide-awake young man, and we see him turn quite a volume of immature hitherward. David and Felipe Yorba were in their ranches at Yorba during the winter new old acquaintances. What they gentlemen do not know about treating stranger within their gates to old-taste hospitality is not worth knowing, or preparing a barbecue are simply qiuer vista—ought of sight, see?
