HAPPENINGS OF THE WEEK Baron Nebelung Dallies With the Telephone. Mayor Rust Falls to Appear at the Council Room on Time, and the Duke of Schleswig-Holstein Tries to Ring Up Central to See If the Mayor Cannot Be Found—He is Subsequently Found at Home, on the Point of Going to Bed, While Weighty Affairs of State Trembled in the Balance and Waited for His Coming for Upwards of an Hour—Other Matters of Import that kept the Balance Trembling—The New Board Takes Its Seat, and Recorder Pierce Has an "Out" in Marshal Steadman's Bond. It was 9 o'clock before the Honorable Board of City Trustees permitted themselves to be called to order at the meeting on Tuesday evening, all on account of the unaccountable absence of Mayor Rust. The other members of the board were promptly in their seats at 8 o'clock, and Clarence Groat, the newly elected Trustee, was on hand, occupying a seat in the parquette, patiently awaiting his turn to be sworn in. While the minutes ticked themselves away and no presiding officer appeared, Clerk Nebelung went to the telephone and for a period of three minutes wrestled with it in the earnest endeavor to ring up Central and find out if the Mayor had been seen down town that evening. The endeavor was altogether fruitless, for Central refused to respond. All was silent as the tomb, and after the telephone had taken an effectual fall out of the Clerk, that august official hung up the apparatus and announced that Central had gone on a strike and refused to be comforted. Trustee Conrad related an experience wherein the telephone had once worked all right. It was during the festive book beer season, now happily past. Conrad maintains that he had book beer up town for eleven days, but connoisseurs say that they were only able to get samples of that foaming beverage for a period of a week. While Conrad was upstairs at the brewery one day, the book beer ran out at Fritz's, and that grim-visaged potentate sought to ring up the brewery to order an extra supply. be sold, as hay would be dear this summer. Trustee Lewis—You couldn't sell him for six bits. Trustee Groat suggested that the city go into the horse-trading business, and trade him off to some unsuspecting tenderfoot. The matter was finally left to the Committee on Public Improvements, with power to act. Marshal Steadman referred to the necessity for cleaning the streets of weeds, and suggested the reorganization of the chain gang. He was instructed to have the streets cleaned, and will begin operations Monday. PASSMORE-ROLLER. WEDDING OF TWO OF OUR WELL-KNOWN YOUNG PEOPLE AT CENTRALIA YESTERDAY AFTERNOON. At the residence of the bride's parents at Centralia yesterday afternoon, Mr. L. M. Passmore of Olive was united in the holy bonds of wedlock to Miss Selma Roller, the beautiful and accomplished daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Roller, Rev. Mr. Binney of Orange officiating. The ceremony was performed at 3 o'clock, and only the members of the family and immediate friends were present. The bride looked surpassingly lovely in a beautiful gown of fawn colored Persian silk, trimmed with lace, and carried a bouquet of sweet peas. The ceremony was performed under a pretty canopy of smilax, marguerites and other flowers. After the ceremony an elaborate wedding breakfast was served, after which the bride and groom were driven to the depot, taking the train for the north, where they will spend the honey-moon. The happy couple will be at home to their friends at Olive after their return. The bride is one of our most beautiful young ladies, and has admirers by the score. Amiable and accomplished, she will prove a fitting bride for the fortunate groom, who is a prosperous horticulturist of Olive and has many warm friends on all sides. We join their many friends in extending the felicitations of the season. Ben Dresser was married in Portland, Or., yesterday to Miss Lizzie Catherine Heitkemper, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Heitkemper of that city. Ben's many friends in Anaheim will join in wishing him and his bride many years of happiness and prosperity. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. For the Week Ending April 27, 1896.

Schools will be out to morrow, May Day. The new Christian Church is being painted. McKinley buttons have made their appearance. The Backs block is being treated to a new coat of paint. Clarence Groat will put down the cement floors for the new county jail at Santa Ana. John Schauman received yesterday a carload of wagons from the East for his new establishment. The Los Angeles fiesta was a disgraceful and grossly immoral affair. The ladies of the W. C. T. U. were right, after all! The Epworth league had a social at the residence of Lloyd Bailey on Tuesday evening when a very pleasant time was enjoyed. The new water runs begin to morrow, in both Anaheim and North Anaheim ditches. There is an abundant call for water. W. J. Hill contemplates beginning harvesting operations in La Habra shortly, and looks forward to quite a bit of threshing later in the season. Boyd & Hatfield have put up screen doors at their poolroom, the work being done by Carpenters Porter and Dunn in their usual artistic fashion. At the Populist primaries in town on Saturday, Chester Spencer, Dr. Pasohall, and H. C. Gade were elected delegates to the county convention. The Prohibition county convention meets at Santa Ana on Tuesday next to elect delegates to their State convention, which meets at Stockton May 13 and 14. Our esteemed contemporary the Independent revels in the luxury of a "patent inside" half of the paper is now printed in San Francisco. The finishing touches have been administered to the Ruhman building, and in its new coat of paint it is really one of the handsome buildings in town. Klistler fired up his new oven the other day and found it to work like a charm. His new building is rapidly approaching completion, and together with his new residence will soon be ready for occupancy. St. Michael's Guild social and dance occurs at the Del Campo on the evening of the 18th, and active preparations are going on to make it one of the enjoyable social affairs of the season. The semi-annual meeting of the Pomological Society of Southern California will be held at Whittier Thursday and Friday, Santa Ana. Trustee Conrad related an experience wherein the telephone had once worked all right. It was during the festive book beer season, now happily past. Conrad maintains that he had bock beer up town for eleven days, but connoisseurs say that they were only able to get samples of that foaming beverage for a period of a week. While Conrad was upstairs at the brewery one day, the book beer ran out at Fritz's, and that grim-visaged potentate sought to ring up the brewery to order an extra supply. "Ting-a-ling-a-ling," went the telephone, and Conrad's eight-year-old boy, belonged to the only person near, rolled a keg up to the phone, stood on top of it and said, "Hello." "Send a five-gallon keg of book beer to Fritz's immediately if not sooner." The little boy ran up stairs and told Conrad about the order, and shortly thereafter Johnny Lederer dashed up town with his team of prancing bays, and Philip Merth was the first one to have a sample out of the new keg. Clerk Nebelung said that some days ago he purchased his little four-year-old boy a pocket knife for a birthday present, and the youngster went to work and amused himself by whittling a quarter section out of the new door. Then the board talked about Barons—the Clerk himself being an escaped baron in disguise, from Schleswig-Holstein—and Trustee Lewis said that once there was a Baron, but he was a fraud, and he only had one suit of clothes, and one time at an assignée's sale of bankrupt goods, he bought an extra pair of drawers for forty cents. Then the board laughed, and some one suggested that, it being nearly 9 o'clock, the meeting adjourned to Wednesday evening. We put in a demurrer, because we did not take to the idea kindly of sitting up all night Wednesday to get the paper out, and at 9 o'clock Engineer des Granges was depatched to the Mayor's residence to summon him to the council room. Trustee Lewis was elected Chairman pro tem, and the meeting proceeded. The Clerk read the minutes of the meetings of April 14th and 20th, the latter detailing the work of canvassing the votes cast at the recent city election, and the minutes were approved as read. The qualifications of the newly elected officers were next in order, and the certificates of election and statement of expenses of Messrs. Rust and Groat, the newly elected Trustees; N. F. Steadman, City Marshal; M. Nebelung, City Clerk, and Baron Cahen, Treasurer, were read and acted upon. Neither one of them had spent a cent in the campaign. Marshal Steadman gave a bond in the sum of $3,000 with the following sureties in $1,000 each: being double the amount: Richard Melrose, J. P. Zeyn, Fritz Rahman, Napoleon Hart, F. A. Korn, Jos Backs. The bond was not approved, on account of the elimination of the words "City of Anaheim" in the verbiage, and was returned for correction. Clerk Nebelung gave a bond in the penal sum of $2,000, with the following sureties in $1,000 each: J. P. Zeyn, F. Rahman, Joseph Backs, Ferdinand Backs. The bond was approved. Baron Cahen gave a bond in the sum of $5,000, with Richard Melrose and L. Gold-water as sureties in the sum of $5,000 each. The same was approved. At half past 9 o'clock Mayor Ruat walked in the council room, having been discovered at his residence by Engineer des Granges, when on the point of retiring for the night. Owing to a misunderstanding of the Clerk's notification of the meeting night, he had not come down town, although he was aware that it was the regular meeting night. His apology was accepted, and he assumed the chair, and at 9:39, there being no further business for the old board to transact, the board advised sine die. Ben Dresser was married in Portland, Or., yesterday to Miss Lizzie Catherine Heitkemper, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Heitkemper of that city. Ben's many friends in Anaheim will join in wishing him and his bride many years of happiness and prosperity. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. For the Week Ending April 27, 1896.

Baron Cahen gave a bond in the sum of $5,000 with Richard Melrose and L. Goldwater as sureties in the sum of $5,000 each. The same was approved. At half past 9 o'clock Mayor Rust walked in the council room, having been discovered at his residence by Engineer des Granges, when on the point of retiring for the night. Owing to a misunderstanding of the Clerk's notification of the meeting night, he had not come down town, although he was aware that it was the regular meeting night. His apology was accepted, and he assumed the chair, and at 9:39, there being no further business for the old board to transact, the board adjourned sine die. Trustee McWilliams then upon retired from the board, and Trustee Groat took his place. The new board was aworn in by the Clerk, and Mayor Rust was unanimously re-elected to the office of presiding officer. After returning thanks for the honor conferred upon him, he announced the appointment of the following committees: Finance—Helmsen, Groat, Lewis. Public Improvements—Lewis, Groat, Conrad. Ordinance—Conrad, Groat, Lewis. The Finance Committee reported the purchase of a car of oil and other necessary items for the power house. The Ordinance Committee reported Ordinance No. 114 for first reading, declaring the necessity for the extension of the city water and electric light plants. It recites the fact that the expenses to be incurred for the improvements are too heavy to be met out of the annual income of the city, and makes provision for the fixing of the amount necessary by some engineer competent to prepare the estimate. The employment of the engineer was left to the Committee on Public Improvements, to report at the next meeting. Under the head of unfinished business the appointment of a City Surveyor was taken up, and C. S. Rogers was appointed to that position. Judge J. B. Pierce was renominated City Recorder. A bill for $34 26 for freight on a carload of oil from Los Angeles was presented by Agent Darling of the Southern Pacific and audited and ordered paid. The electrical engineer reported lights renewed for P. Derge, R. Callahan, F. W. Fleishman and at the City Hall. Trustee Lewis brought up the matter of the city horse that had been turned out to pasture some months ago, afflicted with a spongy hoof. He had received notice from the manager of the pasture that feed was getting scarce and that the horse be removed elsewhere, and the horse had been brought home. It was still in bad condition, the shell of the hoof separating from the interior and the ball of the foot growing down. There is nothing to hold the shoe upon the hoof, and therefore the horse cannot walk upon hard ground. Trustee Conrad suggested that the horse G. W. Risley and wife, G. H. Risley, to Carrie W.

Business Improving. Business is constantly improving at Jacobson Bros. at Santa Ana. They are selling lots of harnesses, carriages and buggies, and have been compelled to add to their force, Mr. W. O. Clayton, formerly with Woods' harness establishment, being now with them. Good work and low prices will surely bring their reward. Come and see us. A New Dress Is little satisfaction unless it fits well. Insure a perfect fit by getting a Butterick pattern. All the latest styles at James Ford's Fullerton. Mail orders given prompt attention. We are astonished at the amount of goods our saddlery store is turning out these dull times, but prices sell the goods. Harness, saddles, whips, robes, etc., at Cost only for a few days more, as I shall remove from Anaheim. Memorial Day. The old veterans will soon take up their march once more to the cemetery to deck with fairest flowers the graves of the noble dead. Business will be suspended and the entire country will go with them to assist in the ceremonies. Don't let it be noticed that you have still neglected to procure a suitable monument to mark the resting place of your loved ones, but go at once and give your order to the Orange County Marble Works, where you will find H. L. Talbott, the marble cutter, who will give you prices on all kinds of cemetery work.

Bees are swarming, and the youth saving the modus operandi of staying them in their flight and corraling them is reaping a harvest, swarms being quoted at a dollar each. Herman Bonnerrocheld has a number of stands, and is thinking of taking up a claim in the hills and going in for honey-raising. Next Sabbath morning the Rev. James Stone, pastor of the Presbyterian church, will preach to children upon the theme,"A Wild Horse." Children of all ages are invited to attend. The theme of the discourse in the evening will be,"What the people may expect of the pastor and his wife." A change in the Southern Pacific train schedule will be noted in the advertisement on the second page. The 8:13 a.m. northbound local passenger train now leaves at 8:14 a.m., and the 9:57 a.m. south-bound leaves at 10:02 a.m. The 12:27 p.m. train north-bound now goes at 11:07 a.m., and the 1:56 p.m. south bound has been changed to 3:21 p.m. The case of Leo Stephan vs. the Board of Supervisors, for a writ of peremptory mandate requiring them to issue a saloon license to him, and to recover damages in the sum of $500, which was to have come up before Judge Towner to day, has been passed by mutual consent, to be reset hereafter. Meanwhile Stephan keeps open house and gives the weary wayfarer a chance to wet his whistle just this side the threshold of the Orange city limits. Several smart showers of rain on Sunday morning was all that came of the Signal Service prediction the day before that a thirty-hour rainfall was impending and was about to descend upon us." According to the prediction of the forecast officials here [in San Francisco] the storm will spread southward and embrace the whole of the State, continuing for thirty hours," Saturday morning's dispatches informed us. But the storm that we longed for never came. It looked like rain up to time of the Signal Service prediction, but immediately thereafter we had fair weather. The showers of Sunday morning amounted, according to Mr. Dickel's guage, to .06 of an inch; a total for the season, 7.83 inches. Mr. McKinley informs us that there are yet about a hundred carloads of oranges in the county, but that orders are coming in and the Eastern market is bracing up so that it is confidently expected any entire crop will be shipped out in two or three weeks, or a month at most. Orange county has a larger number of carloads of oranges on hand proportionately than probably any other county, as shipments from the other counties began the first of December, while from here no oranges were sent out until after the first of the year. But the crop will all be MINIGKEITEU. Will be out to-morrow, May Day. Christian Church is being buttons have made their ap-block is being treated to a coat.

The new crop is setting in good shape and gives every promise of being heavy. Two street cars, each filled with passengers, about train time, are not an uncommon sight—on the contrary they may be seen several times daily—upon Center street any day now; while at Santa Ana one has to walk up town from the depot and back again on taking the train for home. Two street cars are good enough. We call. What yer got, Santa Ana? Public Administrator Clark on Friday disposed of the personal effects of the late Timo Lynch at public sale at the residence. The family pictures and library were purchased by T. H. Lynch of Fresno, son of deceased, a young man of about 30. Judge Pierce bought a handsome bedroom set and parlor furniture. The sale was quite well attended, and fair prices were realized. Judge Towner rendered a decision on Monday in the case of Garton, assignee, vs. Jacob Stern, which has been in court some months, as a result of the suit of the creditors of Sprague, the Fullerton insolvent, in favor of plaintiff. Stern purchased the stock at assignee's sale, paying $500 therefor, and thereafter the creditors brought claims aggregating $1,200, and this is what judgment has been rendered for. Jake will take an appeal to the Supreme Court. The Sunset telephone company have issued a card containing the list of local telephone subscribers in this city and at Santa Ana. The fact that a liberal sprinkling of errors appears in the names of users of the telephone does not detract from its usefulness among those to whom the errors are apparent, but it would seem that if the company could not get out a card less void of errors than the one now before us, they would get out not at all. The Levy brothers of the Santa Ana Red Front, accompanied by Mr. Jacobson, the harness-man, were in town on Sunday renewing old acquaintances and seeing the sights. Mr. Levy reports an active McKinley sentiment at Santa Ana, business lively and more pretty girls in Anabeim than he ever saw on Fifth avenue. W. O. Clayton, formerly with Woods, the Santa Ana harness-maker, is now with Jacobson Bros., who are doing the harness trade at the county capital. Both firms are believers in the efficacy of printers' ink, to which their success may in great part be attributable. The Turners will picnic in Santiago canyon on Sunday next. There will be games, fat-men's races, girls' races and a tug-of-war, for all of which suitable prizes will be given. The day being the first Sunday in May, and the canyon being now at its best, a large attendance is looked for, to participate in the festivities and commune with nature in the PERSONAL MENTION. L. Z. Huntington is rejoicing over the advent of a new daughter that arrived at his home on Tuesday. Mr. and Mrs. C. Trieschmann and Mr. A. Loeffelholz of Milwaukee, Wis., are in town, the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Weisel. Will Julian took a run over to Long Beach on Sunday and went over to San Pedro to see the cruiser Philadelphia. Mr. Fletcher was taken seriously ill yesterday, and Dr. Champion was called in. Last evening his condition was reported as being improved. Mrs. R. C. Hutohinson of New Jersey, a sister of Fred and Walter Mickle, is here to remain for a protracted visit, and may be induced to locate permanently. Miss Katherine Kennedy was down from Los Angeles on Sunday on a visit to her folks, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Kennedy, who live in Magnolia. Philip Davis' broken arm is mending rapidly, and he informs us he will be able to spare a couple of rounds pretty soon. Mr. Davis leaves for the north in a day or two. Herman Dickel took a run up to Los Angeles on Tuesday and purchased a large glass-front refrigerator for butter during the warm season, which will soon be upon us. W. M. MoFadden returned last week from his trip to San Francisco, where he attended the annual session of the grand lodge of the order of Chosen Friends. Mao was honored by election to the office of Grand Trustee. Dr. Gardiner's handsome features are again observable through the Postoffice window. The Doc. distributes packages of letters with all his old-time alacrity of spirit, and is never so dispirited as when failing to find any mail for customers of the office. Miss Margaret Higgins took her departure yesterday for Yosemite, where she will take a position as telegraph operator for the Southern Pacific Company. The young lady's friends will be overjoyed to learn of her advancement in the railroad company's service. Capt. Arthur F. Halpin left Los Angeles on Tuesday evening for London, whither he goes on a protracted visit to relatives in the British metropolis. The Captain's many friends hereabout will wish him bon voyage and will hope to see him again beneath the sunny skies of California. Mr. Chynoweth leaves on Saturday for Modesto to attend the Congressional convention, which meets on Monday next. He goes there to Sacramento to attend the Republican State convention the next day, and will be absent until the latter end of the week. The entire Orange county delegation will probably go up together. friends for the Senate. We may add that Judge Taylor's name has also been mentioned for the Superior Judgeship, and common with every other lawyer in this county with the exceptions noted, most doubtless be regarded as a candidate for this office. Mr. Hulteen of the firm of contractors putting up the new county jail at Santa Ana was in town on Sunday. He informs us that several of our townspeople will have jobs at the building, among them Clarence Grover whose services have been engaged to put down the cement floors, which Mr. Hulteen says will be a particularly intricate job. R. E. Larter and O. J. Buck of Westminster were in town yesterday. Mr. Larter is the Republican County Committeeeman in his district, and Mr. Buck is one of the county's delegates to the State convention.Both report an active McKinley sentiment down in the Peastlands. Dr. Lord, the Santa Ana veterinary surgeon, was over yesterday to see the mare jazzie in Brea canyon some weeks ago.

Kinley informs us that there are hundred carloads of oranges in but that orders are coming in certain market is bracing up so that shortly exposed the entire crop out in two or three weeks, or most. Orange county has a lot of carloads of oranges on hand than probably any other equipments from the other counties first of December, while from these were sent out until after the year. But the crop will all be there, and tell them we have strawberries the year round, and raise the richest beets in the world. Four hundred bushels of potatoes to the sore, and eighteen hundred pounds of apricots from one tree. For two days we were stuffed so full of mountain trout that all ideas of further feasting filled us with satisty. It had been said that the mighty disciples of Izaak Walton who went fishing into the mountain fastnesses of the Trabuca had retu rued empty handed, but we had ocular demonstration as to the entire falsity of the charge. The four fishermen—Bruce, Bailey, Beebe and Miller—had the best of luck, and landed 161 beautiful trout in their two days' sport. Angler Bruce had the honor of catching the most of the fish, and he has been regularly installed as the champion angler of the county. Bruce can talk a fish out of the water—that's what he can do. The boys had eighty fish for supper the evening before they left, and the Lord only knows how many for breakfast the next morning. A liberal number of trout were brought home with which to regale their friends, as well as to furnish the necessary corroborative detail to what would otherwise be a bald and uninteresting narrative, and we can testify to the fact that they were of most toothsome and delicious character. Next to a strawberry festival, mountain trout come nearer awakening the pleasures of youth than anything we have eaten in a long time.
