HAPPENINGS OF THE WEEK Mrs. Hansen's Damage Suit Dismissed. Despairing of Recovering $20,000 from the Water Company, She Decides to Abandon the Case—Call for a Meeting of Water Shareholders—The Supreme Court Hands Down a Decision in Witte vs. Taylor—First Carload of Oranges to be Shipped from the County Being Picked at Placentia—Correspondence from Neighboring Places—Orange County Gets a Prize at Atlanta for Oranges, and Geo. Betts Gets a Medal for Lemons—Local Brevities—Minor Mention. The suit of Mrs. Mette Hansen against the Anaheim Union Water Company for $20,000 damages has been dismissed. Mrs. Hansen wearied of ever obtaining judgment against the company, and in the Superior Court on Friday, on motion of her attorney, the action against the company was dismissed. The institution of the suit to recover damages in such an exorbitant amount fell at the time like a thunder clap in a clear sky among the lady's neighbors, and there were not lacking those who scouted the idea of her alleged disability. The injury was alleged to have been sustained in April, 1894, and it was not until March of this year, after the lapse of eleven months from the time of the accident, that the case against the company was begun. The case has been pending in court ever since, and in June last a second amended complaint was filed, the previous one having been objected to, and the objection having been sustained by the Court. Recently the matter of the right of the company to maintain its ditch upon Sycamore street, where the accident occurred at the junction of that thoroughfare with East street, was up before the Court on demurrer, and the Judge decided that the water company, having occupied the street for a period of thirty-five years, had a perfectly legal right upon that street at the time of the alleged accident. This was, in view of the fact that the lady's injuries were more or less trivial, the kernal in the case. Of course if the company had had no right to maintain its ditch on the street, plaintiff's case would have been advanced very materially thereby. On the contrary, if it could be shown that the company had a right upon the street, and that plaintiff was not so badly injured as she set forth in her complaint—alleged that plaintiff used his best effort to effect the sale. He only succeeded in obtaining from James an offer to sell said undivided half of the ranch to defendant, but defendant refused to purchase, and thereafter bought an undivided one-third from James upon terms satisfactory to himself. The complaint prays for judgment for the sum of $1,333 33, that sum being a proportionate amount of the agreed compensation of $2,000. The court says that the complaint fails to state a cause for action; that it proceeds on the theory that the contract is separable; this is not provided for in the contract, and the court holds that it must stand or fall as a whole. CALL FOR A MEETING THE “REFORM LEAGUE” WILL NOT HAVE THINGS ALL THEIR OWN WAY IN THE ELECTION FOR WATER DIRECTORS. The following petition calling a meeting of water shareholders on Monday afternoon next is being circulated and numerously signed: We, the undersigned stockholders of the Anaheim Union Water Company, viewing with distrust and apprehension the energetic effort being put forth by the so-called reform element among the stockholders to obstruct and impede the present board of directors in its efforts to carry out the expressed wish of the stockholders, that a progressive and business-like policy be pursued; and believing that the work done and the policy pursued by the present directorate has resulted in securing to the stockholders a permanent and abundant supply of water in lieu of what a few years ago seemed a very insecure and insufficient supply, wholly inadequate to the needs and demands of the stockholders; and believing that the success of the so-called reform element in obstructing the policy of the stockholders would result in the necessity of immediate and heavy assessments on the stock of the company to satisfy creditors who at present withhold their claims because of confidence in the present management; and believing that the revenue of the company can be materially increased if the policy of the present directors is adopted by the company, we herewith ask the stockholders of the company who wish the plans and policy of the present board of directors supported and carried out, to meet with us at the office of the Anaheim Union Water Company at 2 p.m., Monday, December 9, 1895, for the purpose of exchanging views on the subject and of formulating plans for practical work in behalf of the success of the company and of the policy of its present directorate.

Give us a trial Harris & Co., Santa Ana. Mr. Ryan has had some assays made from below the line in Lower California, one showing $56 to the ton forms us that he is thinking of invest ing them together with a wealthy L.A. ditch upon Sycamore street, where the accident occurred at the junction of that thoroughfare with East street, was up before the Court on demurrer, and the Judge decided that the water company, having occupied the street for a period of thirty-five years, had a perfectly legal right upon that street at the time of the alleged accident. This was, in view of the fact that the lady's injuries were more or less trivial, the kernal in the case. Of course if the company had had no right to maintain its ditch on the street, plaintiff's case would have been advanced very materially thereby. On the contrary, if it could be shown that the company had a right upon the street, and that plaintiff was not so badly injured as she set forth in her complaint—not permanently disabled—it is doubtful if her case was worth fighting. Mrs. Hansen's complaint was as follows. We omit the verbage: That on the 12th day of April, 1894, plaintiff being in the city of Anaheim, accepted an invitation of one Peter Lassen to ride with him to her home, to wit: Placentia, Orange county, California; that thereupon plaintiff and said Lassen started on the way to said Placentia in a two wheel cart, with one seat, drawn by one horse, going by the way of said Sycamore street; that said Peter Lassen drove said horse during all the time that plaintiff rode in said cart; that said horse was a kind, gentle, docile and roadworthy horse. That plaintiff and said Lassen seated in the seat of said cart, said Peter Lassen being on the right side of said cart, and plaintiff being on the left side of said cart, and in this situation plaintiff and said Lassen approached said bridge. That when plaintiff and said Lassen arrived at said bridge across said flume, in said Sycamore street, on said 12th day of April, 1894, the said horse, which Lassen was driving, partially crossed said bridge, when it became frightened at said engine, and said tents; that when said horse became frightened at said engine and said tents, by reason of said fright it turned suddenly around and attempted to escape from said engine and said tents, and in so turning around, by reason of the aforesaid negligent and careless manner in which said flume and said bridge were constructed and maintained by said defendant, said horse fell into said flume; that by reason of said horse falling into said flume, the said cart, together with plaintiff sitting therein, was thrown with great violence and force into said flume. That by reason of being thrown into said flume, as aforesaid, plaintiff was greatly bruised in her body and limbs; that by reason of the bruises so received by being thrown into said flume, as aforesaid, plaintiff was made sore, sick, lame and disordered in her body, and by reason thereof so remained for a long space of time, to wit: from thence hitherto; that by reason of being thrown into said flume, as aforesaid, plaintiff received a blow centering at a point in the small of the back, or the right side, where the sacrum and ilium are united; that by reason of being thrown into said flume, as aforesaid, plaintiff's right hip was greatly bruised, injured and damaged; that plaintiff's right hip being so bruised, is still sore, damaged and injured. That by reason of such injuries plaintiff was confined helplessly to her bed for four weeks, and was for a period of three months unable to walk save with the assistance of a cane; that plaintiff can never recover from said injuries, and the same will and do permanently affect the health, strength and activity of plaintiff; that plaintiff for a long period of time, to wit: ever since said accident, has suffered great pain of body and anguish of mind, caused by the injuries received, as aforesaid. Plaintiff further alleges that when she started on her way home on the said 12th day of April, 1894, she was a strong, healthy and active woman; that immediately before said accident, and for many years prior thereto plaintiff was able to do and did all her household work, and the chores around her residence; that plaintiff has been unable to ask the stockholders of the company who wish the plans and policy of the present board of directors supported and carried out, to meet with us at the office of the Anaheim Union Water Company at 2 p.m., Monday, December 9, 1895, for purpose of exchanging views on the subject and of formulating plans for practical work in behalf of the success of the company and of the policy of its present directorate.

By means whereof plaintiff has been damaged in the sum of twenty thousand dollars. Whorefore plaintiff demands judgment in the sum of twenty thousand dollars. WITTE VS TAYLOR THE SUPREME COURT HANDS DOWN A DECISION AFFIRMING THE LOWER COURT. The Supreme Court has sustained the lower court in the case of W. A. Witte of this city, plaintiff and appellant, vs. R. B. Taylor of South Riverside, defendant and respondent, in favor of defendant, for commissions aggregating $1,333 33 on sales of land in Nye county, Nev., and elsewhere. The opinion is written by Justice Garoutte, and concurred in by Justices Harrison and Van Fleet, and affirms the judgment of the lower court. The action was to recover commissions for the sale of certain real estate. A general demurrier had been sustained to the complaint, and plaintiff appealed from the judgment rendered therein. The action was based upon a clause in a written contract entered into between plaintiff and defendant, in which it was set forth that it was further understood and agreed that when said Taylor could secure from Plez James of Anaheim a deed conveying to said Taylor the undivided one-half interest in a ranch in Nevada then owned by Plez James, in said Nevada ranch, then said Taylor would pay said Witte the sum of $2,000 as commission on said purchase and sale from said James; and said Taylor agreed that he would purchase said lots in East Riverside and Hastings from said Witte for the sum of $1,000, the said purchase from the said James to be at terms satisfactory to said Taylor, and the said sums of $2,000 as commission and $1,000 for lots to be due and payable at any time after six months from date and delivery of deed from said Plez James for said one half interest in said ranch to said Taylor. The complaint set forth the contract and Kleinigkeiten. The Chino grocers have associated to fuse credit to farmers who raise beets for $3.

They go forward this week, are navels and bring $2.50 b. Center street has been pretty well obstructed near its junction with Los Angeles set on account of the putting down of the sidewalk.

The military boys were in their element Thanksgiving evening at their ball at the Opera-house. The hall was filled with a select company of fair women and brave men, who tripped the light fantastic until a late hour. A sumptuous repast was served at the Del Campo at midnight and the joyous revelry of the dance continued until the wee ama' hours. The ball was the first of the season, and that the season is to be one full of activity and joyousness is indicated by the fact that already there are reports of other balls and parties to follow in the near future. The Abbott-Davison company is to appear at Reiser's Hall next week for a period of two nights, when they will present the Lady and Lord Sholto Douglas case, introducing new songs, dances and catchy music.

If the new association, which owns 68 per cent of the packing house, disposes of it, they will pack their fruit in the Botsford warehouse in Placentia, use of which has been tendered them free of charge. It is estimated they control 140 cars of the crop. "Been paying for this paper seventeen years," remarked J. B. Stone as he invaded the sanctum on Monday morning and said he guessed he'd have to pay for it for another year. We have known Mr. Stone ever since he moved into the country, and every year we find out something good about him that we never knew before. Seventeen years is a very long time to be a continuous subscriber to any journal, and during all this time we do not remember that our friend over rushed into the office to "stop the paper," or lick the editor, and we don't know any of our subscribers whom we'll rather see than Mr. Stone, especially when he brings us in a basketful of those nice apples he used to long ago.

Can take your golden-haired girl out in the silver moonlight without being yourself on the money question, the orders you to go to the Red Front shoes. Today's issue will be found the adcent of the Woodward Rope Sizer using oranges, lemons, olives, etc., which E. B. Merritt & Co. are the They carry in stock a full line of these at all times. We are informed that number have been sold this season in no county for the grading of olives, they have given perfect satisfaction. Kindings of the sizer are very simple, and will not injure the most delitive, and in the hands of a practical packer insures succeeds. Books before the season arrives, when oranges ordinarily begin to move, the small crop has been entirely selling on the trees. The price is $2.90 per box, depending on quality.ance from market, and the fruit is going out in small lots. Trees are remarkably well, but it will requireording to the opinion of best posted there, to reach the 6,000,000-box min. The Florida fruit exchange 1,000 boxes as an outside limit of the year. It is only a guess to estimate it year's crop will be, but the connion points to a yield probably unthan over 1,000,000 boxes. It is thus shown little or no fruit shipped from the State, most of the fall crop being required by Florida who cater to northern guests, it is an probable that unusually large in good faith by responsible parties, the job of getting the land subscribed would be one of almost insurmountable difficulty. But when the farmers of San Luis Obispo county have been made a similar proposition, with the exception that there they ask for four thousand instead of a single thousand acres, it will be seen that these propositions are somewhat at variance as to the character of donations asked. If the San Luis Obispo farmers will guarantee the donation of 4000 acres (which at $150 per acre would amount to $600,000) it seems hardly probable that the offer to put up a factory here for a thousand acres (worth $150,000) is anything less than a repetition of former offers on the part of the powers that be—wind, nothing but wind, and a poor quality at that. Let the stockholders put in an entirely new Board of Directors at their next annual meeting, let a committee be appointed to endeavor to enlist the co-operation of Los Angeles bankers (instead of paying a total stranger $30,000 to go to New Haven and sell the bonds), and see whether this great industrial enterprise, which has been butchered to death these past two years, cannot be put upon the high moral plane which is its due. The present directors, from the President down, have proven their utter inefficiency to go ahead. Let the stockholders sweep them out, put in a new board in their place, and go forward. There are bright times ahead, and we still insist that we shall have a sugar factory. But we shall never have it so long as it is being secretly stabbed to death by men who ought to be pushing it along. At Monday's session of the Supervisors the following excessively unique communication from the residents of La Habra was presented: "LA HABRA VALLEY, Orange county, California, October 16, '95. To the Honorable Board of Supervisors of Orange county: "We, the undersigned land holders and taxpayers of La Habra Valley, petition your honorable body to take into consideration the unjust taxation of said valley for the years of '95 and '96 as most all of us have come and settled in the valley within the last year and most all of us are trying to pay for our places with hard earnings or with borrowed money, mostly the latter, and as yet have scarceely any income from the soil and it is working a hardship on us these hard times. "We respectfully ask your honorable body to give us a rebate of 40 cents on the dollar." As the Supervisors have no right to lower assessments at this time, or to refund moneys paid for taxes, the letter was pigeon-holed. We are all in the same boat with the La Habra people—taxes are too high, and we haven't any money to pay them, and we should like very much to have a rebate of forty cents on the dollar. How to attain this greatly to be desired consumption has occupied the best part of our young and useful life. But we are afraid the La Habra plan won't work.

A number of these specialist physicians will be at the Commercial Hotel on Saturday for consultation. Their advertisement will be found on the fourth page this morning. Dr. Lee writes from San Jose that his daughter’s condition, which was last week so critical that he was telegraphed for, is improved so that hopes are entertained for her speedy recovery, but he will not leave for this city until she is out of danger. The young lady’s friends will be glad to hear of her improvement. Dr. Lee will probably return during the week. Mr. Cargill was so unfortunate as to sustain an accident while attending the Shaw entertainment last Saturday evening, which has since kept him to his bed. He struck his knee against the hub of the wheel of his vehicle while alighting previous to the show, and thought nothing of it at the time, but when he came to leave the hall had to be carried down stairs. His leg has since been in a plaster cast, but his recovery is looked forward to in the near future. Geo. D. Carlton was in town from Los Angeles on Monday, coming down to pay his water assessment and transact other business matters. Mr. Carlton has one of the finest walnut groves in the county—by many it is held to be the finest—and is a liberal minded gentleman of progressive ideas. He looks for a gradual increase in the water limits and favors extension of the boundaries from time to time as a surplus of the water supply makes it necessary. He informs us Los Angeles is growing more rapidly than probably any time in its history. Contractor McWilliams has the contract for putting up a $4000 warehouse for the Fullerton orange association, which will be modeled after the warehouse at Ontario, and be fitted with tracks for the loading of cars and all other modern conveniences. He has also the contract for the erection of a $1600 residence for Mr. Shanley, to be erected on his newly purchased property on Lemon street. This will include well, tank frame and outhouses. Work upon both structures will immediately begin and will be pushed right away.” You see that word used so often that we dislike to use it; but we have two exceptional things which could not be stated otherwise than “Bargains,” and when we say we are going to give bargains, they are bargains, Simon-pure.
