THE NEWS OF THE WEEK City Trustees Insist on a Change in the New Electric Engine. Not What They Bargained for, Although the Contractor Claims It to Be a Better Machine - The Specifications Mysteriously Altered as to the Engine's Shaft - Tim Boege Files Charges to the Effect That Brewer Conrad Is Conducting a Retail Liquor Business at the Brewery-Petitions Asking for Changes in the Locations of Street Are Lamps Tabled-Charley Carroll's Horse Runs Away With Him-Br. Howlett Comes Down to Patch Up the Well Pit. The Board of City Trustees met in regular session on Tuesday evening; present Trustees Rust, Lewis, Helmsen, Groat and Conrad. Marshal Steadman reported the following collections during the month: For license, $178 75; water, $172 10; electric lights, $151 70; total, $502 55; less 5 per cent for collecting ($25 12), deposited with Treasurer, $477 43. Delinquents collected: Water, $23 90; license, $4; light, $2 15; total, $30 05. Delinquents reported: Water, $23 45; license, $6 75; light, $5 05; total $35 25. Treasurer Cahen reported $102 30 in the General fund and $14,533 06 in the bond funds; total in treasury, $14,-635 36. Clerk Nebelung’s monthly financial statement showed $109 50 in the General fund, and $14,525 86 in the bond funds; total in treasury tallying with the Treasurer. Recorder Pierce reported that he had turned in $14 into the city treasury for fines collected from parties violating the bicycle ordinance; fees, $6. Total fines collected, $20. Trustee Helmsen of the Finance Committee reported the auditing of the various demands against the city and the examination of the reports and the approval of the same. Trustee Lewis of the Public Improvements Committee had nothing to report. Trustee Conrad of the Ordinance Committee asked for further time in the matter of the ordinance imposing a license upon temporary business places. The Clerk reported, in the matter of the application of the Santa Fe company for free water for their park, that board relative to the legal aspects of the case. City Attorney Chynoweth took issue with him on several important items, and it was difficult to see just what bearing Mr. Burnett had upon the case. Mr. Lawrence’s bill of $2887 50 was finally allowed by the board, a stipulation being agreed to that no part of the money was to be considered as any payment upon the engine. Mr. Lawrence promised to remedy all defects, and if the engine was not according to contract to take it out, and the lengthy discussion was brought to a close. Mr. Lawrence asked for an extension of 30 days time for completing his contract. Refused. Application of Treasurer Cahen for a bond book and punch for punching coupons. Granted. Communication of Tim Boege charging F. Conrad with running a retail liquor business at his brewery, and requesting that he (Conrad) be charged the usual $10 monthly license therefor; or in lieu of that to reduce his (Boege's) license from $10 to $5 per month, which Conrad pays for his brewing license. Mr. Boege asked that he be placed on an equality with Conrad as to license. Trustee Conrad denied that he conducted a retail liquor business, but said that he had brandy and wine at the brewery which he was selling, and which he considered he had a right to sell without a license. Boege’s communication, he said, was spite work. The matter was referred to the Marshal for investigation. Petition of John Casson and others asking that an arc light be placed on the corner of Center and Clementina streets, and that the light placed on Center street about 150 feet west of Clementina be placed at the corner of Center and Adelaide streets. Tabled. Engineer Des Granges reported that Mr. Rea had spoken to him objecting to the placing of the guy stub attached to the electric light pole in front of his residence, the pole being directly in front of his door. The board instructed Mr. Sharpe to change the location of the pole. Adjourned. BOLD BURGLARS. Luedke’s and Reber’s Jewelry Stores Entered After Midnight Saturday Night and Various Articles Stolen. Thieves broke into Oscar Luedke’s and G. Reber’s jewelry stores about 1 o’clock on Sunday morning, effecting an entrance by cutting the glass in the first instance in the front door and in the second in the show window. A diamond glass cutter was used, and at Luedke’s a hole sufficiently large to adhere to the legal aspects of the case. The leaf of a tobacco plant growing at Mr. Dickel’s place on Lemon street measures 25x14 inches. Aug. Freise has been granted license by the Supervisors for the continuation of his saloon in town. The motion for a new trial in this case of Champlin vs. Paschall has been continued in the Superior Court until to-morrow (Friday). Mr. Littlefield who broke his collar Tuesday evening of last week getting along nicely and will probably soon be able to be out again. Santa Ana has passed an anti-penetration ordinance, and persons spitting on the sidewalk, hallways in public places may be fined from to $25. Mr Steinke’s beets, raised on the Carrol place west of town, restored polarized 23.4 per cent. This is the highest test so far, up to the hour going to press. Mr. Arimond came down town with a sample of some very fine cherries his own raising on his place. They were the first Anaheim cherries of this season. Thirty-four votes were polled in the school bond election on Saturday 33 in favor of the bonds and 1 against C. H. Nickerson was the inspector at George Horr and A. M. William judges. The applications of F. Conrad and Gandolfo & Co. for licenses to maintain saloons at Alamitos, and that of Bolt for a saloon at the Landing, were on Tuesday denied by the Board Supervisors. Henry Smith, whose foot was badly crushed in a hay baler on the McNally ranch some six weeks ago, able to be about on crutches. Henry had a narrow escape from losing his foot but is now safely on the way to permanent recovery. We must have been experiencing the fag end of the eastern hot spell, for the weather has been somewhat torrential. The thermometer has hovered above the 90 mark, but the sea breeze temperate the warmth and makes existence an ideality hereabout. Seven carloads of beets were shipped from Buena Park on Tuesday, three from Anaheil and three from Benedict, making a total of 13 cars. The shipments daily during the season from the three places we aggregate about 25 tons. Walter S. Burrell was seriously injured by the fall of the top of a bed Trustee Helmsen of the Finance Committee reported the auditing of the various demands against the city and the examination of the reports and the approval of the same. Trustee Lewis of the Public Improvements Committee had nothing to report. Trustee Conrad of the Ordinance Committee asked for further time in the matter of the ordinance imposing a license upon temporary business places. The Clerk reported, in the matter of the application of the Santa Fe company for free water for their park, that an inspection of the records showed that on May 8, 1894, a verbal agreement had been entered into between W. A. Witte, on behalf of the city and the Santa Fe company, whereby the former agreed that if the railroad company would lay a water main at their own expense to the depot, the city would furnish them water for depot purposes at the rate of $2 per month, and free water for park purposes. The board decided to abide by that agreement, and free water for the park will be furnished. The petition of Rev. J. Schaeider relative to placing an arc light on the corner of Broadway and Clementina streets, was deferred indefinitely. The arc light remains for the present at the corner of Lemon and Santa Ana streets. Engineer Rogers submitted an estimate on public improvements as follows: As per estimate June 22, $7,078.95. Work performed since then: Two 8-inch F. E. valves... $44.00 One 6-inch check valve... 23.00 Two 2-inch valves... 6.00 Placing oil tank in position... 30.00 Work on service and curb connections... 50.00 Work on pump pit... 680.00 Total... $833.00 Total of all work... $7,911.95 Less 25 per cent retained... 1,978.00 $5,933.95 Less previous payments... 5,309.20 Due on this estimate... $624.75 After discussion relative to the payment for the pump pit, which is yet in an unfinished condition, the board ordered that the estimate be accepted, and a warrant was ordered drawn in payment of the amount. Relative to the pump pit Engineer Rogers stated that he considered it in fair condition; water had been running into it at the rate of 150 gallons per hour, but the leaks were being plugged up, and with alterations in the floor he considered that it would be strong enough to hold the pump. A bill for $72 for oil used for pumping water from the pump pit was ordered charged to Gardiner & Howe. Trustee Helmsen called for a report from Electrical Engineer Sharpe. That gentleman replied that he had no report to make. None of the electrical work had been tested, he said, and nothing was ready to turn over to the city. Mr. Lawrence of Wybro & Lawrence was present and submitted a bill for $2,887.50 as a first payment for work done in installing the electrical machinery at the power house. Mayor Rust and Trustees Lewis and Helmsen took the ground that while the new water tube boiler was satisfactory to the city, the engine being put in was not, and a lengthy discussion ensued between those gentlemen and Mr. Lawrence relative thereto, the latter maintaining that the engine was according to the contract and specifications, and the former insisting that it BOLD BURGLARS. Luedke's and Reber's Jewelry Stores Entered After Midnight Saturday Night and Various Articles Stolen. Thieves broke into Oscar Luedke's and G. Reber's jewelry stores about 1 o'clock on Sunday morning, effecting an entrance by cutting the glass in the first instance in the front door and in the second in the show window. A diamond glass cutter was used, and at Luedke's a hole sufficiently large to admit the body of a man was cut through the glass in the door. One of the thieves then entered and hastily ransacked the show case. It is certain the thief must have been a poor judge of silver ware, with which the show cases were stocked, or he must have been in a hurry, for on entering the store, he passed around behind the show cases, and going by the first, in which an expensive line of silverware was displayed, went to one of the rear show cases, and helped himself to the cheaper line of goods displayed there. A manicure set, with silver handled pieces, valued at $4 50, was taken, but a solid silver buckle lying alongside of it was untouched. A half-dozen silver-plated waist sets and a number of children's silver rings, set with turquoise stones, were among the articles stolen. Solid silver jewel cases on display in the cases on the wall, and solid silver napkin rings in the first show case, were undisturbed. No effort was made to get into the safe, and none of the more expensive silver ware was touched. The show case was littered with stumps of matches and a silver-plated lace-pin was found in front of the store on Sunday morning. Around the corner of Dr. Higgins' drugstore was found a paper box that had contained a fountain pen. The pen was gone, but the filler remained in the box. Mr. Luedke places his loss at about $10 and considers himself lucky to have escaped with such a slight loss. At Reber's jewelry store the thieves cut the glass in the show window, and the splintered glass showed that after cutting the pane, the thieves had thrust the glass in by pressure from without. The crashing glass awakened Mr. Reber, who slept in the rear, and he hastily arose and coming into the store saw at once that burglars had paid him a visit; but on going out upon the sidewalk he could find no one upon the streets. The thieves steal or 15 or 15 gold filled watch chains, one field glass, a set of Rogers silver spoons and about half a dozen watch charms, three of which were found near Mr. Hussman's place next morning, where the thieves had probably thrown them in their flight, and were returned to him. Mr. Reber places his loss at $40. On Monday morning a velvet cover—used for the placing of watch chains within the show cases—which had been taken from Reber's with the stolen chains, was found by Mr. Koenig at his place on Los Angeles street, showing the thieves had gone that way in their flight. Fritz Ruhmann's place was also entered by thieves about the same time. They effected an entrance by cutting wire screen at the window in one of the rear rooms, when the screen was easily opened by pulling back the catch, and the window being unlocked, was raised and the thieves were soon inside. A nickel-in-the-slot marked on the pole. Adjourned. We must have been experiencing the fag end of the eastern hot spell, for weather has been somewhat torrential. The thermometer has hovered above the 90 mark, but the sea breeze temperature warmth and makes existence an ideality hereabout. Seven carloads of beets were shipped from Buena Park on Tuesday, first day of the season, 3 from Anaheim and 3 from Benedict, making a total 13 cars. The shipments daily during the season from the three places we aggregate about 25 tons. Walter S. Burrell was seriously injured by fall of the top of a bed wagon upon him at the Linnen ramp at Buena Park on Monday morning. He was assisting in work of hoisting top upon the wagon, when some manner ropes slipped and to top fell upon him, breaking his leg above the knee. The accident was near the scene of the goring by death Perley Moon by an infuriated boy some eight months ago. Mr. Burrell is a recent arrival from the northern part of the State. The county assessment roll shows falling off of some $7,000 as compared with last year, which is attributable partly to decrease in person property. Deputy Assessor Jennings informs us she falling off is about equally distributed throughout the county although Alamitos sugar factory makes quite an important item in its increase in northwestern portions of the county. The greatest single loss Mr. Jennings' district is attributable to decrease in number of Moor Bastanchury's sheep.

Mayor Rust and Trustees Lewis and Helmsen took the ground that while the new water tube boiler was satisfactory to the city, the engine being put in was not, and a lengthy discussion ensued between those gentlemen and Mr. Lawrence relative thereto, the latter maintaining that the engine was according to the contract and specifications, and the former insisting that it was not. Mr. Lawrence finally stated that if the engine was not according to the contract and specifications he would take it out. Mayor Rust called for a statement from Engineer Des Granges of the power house, who entered into a technical criticism of the engine and other work being put in by Wybro & Lawrence. The pulley on the dynamo which ought to be 24 inches according to contract, had been cut down over half; the pipe fittings were faulty, and the two boiler feed pumps sold to the city as hot water pumps were in both cases cold water pumps. Mr. Lawrence stated relative to the feed pumps that they were according to the contract, and as to the pipe connections and other matters, his foreman was doing the work under the instruction of the supervising engineer (Sharpe), and that if work so placed was not satisfactory to the city, the Trustees would have to fight it out with the supervising engineer. The chair stated that the supervising engineer was not doing the work to the satisfaction of the engineer employed at the power-house. Trustee Lewis said that suggestions made to the supervising engineer by members of the city trustees had not been listened to. This Mr. Sharpe denied, and a lengthy discussion ensued as to the manner of the work being done. Trustee Lewis called attention to the fact that the specifications in the contract requiring the main bearing, or shaft, of the engine to be 6 inches in diameter had been mysteriously changed to 5 inches. The specifications had been probably altered by some one just before the meeting, as several members of the board and the City Clerk and City Attorney had seen the figure 6 in the contract but a short time before. The shaft for the engine is rather an important matter, and who the guilty party is, remains a mystery. Mr. Lawrence introduced his attorney, Mr. Burnett, who addressed the On Monday morning a velvet cover—used for the placing of watch chains within the show cases—which had been taken from Reber's with the stolen chains, was found by Mr. Koenig at his place on Los Angeles street, showing the thieves had gone that way in their flight. Fritz Ruhmann's place was also entered by thieves about the same time. They effected an entrance by cutting the wire screen at the window in one of the rear rooms, when the screen was easily opened by pulling back the catch, and the window, being unlocked, was raised and the thieves were soon inside. A nickel-in-the-slot machine, in which was about 50 cents, and a bottle of whisky were stolen. The broken slot machine was found in the rear of F. Backs' furniture store, and across the way, at the Chinese laundry, were the footprints of a horse that had been lately hitched there and evidences of its having been fed grain. Mr. and Mrs. Dickel were returning about 1 o'clock from a party at Mrs. Hiltscher's, and when near Pressel's blacksmith's shop, Mrs. Dickel saw, at the corner of her husband's store, what appeared to be the lighting of a match, and then its instant extinguishment. Whatever the light might have been, it is certain the burglar's were in that immediate vicinity at about that time. They were probably lighting a match to inspect the stolen goods more closely, when hearing Mr. Dickel and his wife coming up the road, they decamped. DR. HIGGINS' DRUG STORE BURGLARIZED, Burglars entered Dr. Higgins' drug store some time during Tuesday night, effecting an entrance by cutting out one of the panes of glass in the rear window. They tried first to raise the window, which they could not accomplish, it being locked; whereupon they cut out a pane. Although the aperture was small it was sufficiently large to admit the body of an undersized man. The drawers of the drug store were all found open yesterday morning when Dr. Higgins opened the store, but the articles stolen were confined to some chewing gum and a clothes brush. The floor was littered with burned matches. Nothing of any great value was taken. Dr. Higgins slept in his residence at the rear of the store, but was undisturbed by the intruders, whose footfalls must have been light and noiseless. The best and cheapest beet knives at Dickel's. The Turners will give a dance at Kroeger's Hall on Saturday evening, July 24th, Mr. Nemetz was awakened as he slept on Sunday morning sometime after o'clock by the voices of two or three men speaking in an undertone as walking by his residence in the middle of the street. Thinking lightly of it, dismissed the matter, when on the growing of his dog he determined to go up and investigate. He saw, as well he could in the darkness, three men standing in the middle of the street just north of his residence, engaged conversation. One was of small stature and the others were taller. Mr. Nemetz could make out two or three men he is not positive which, it being quiet dark, but judging by their voices there were three. They moved down town, walking in the middle of the street. Mr. Nemetz retired and within the next half hour again aroused by the sound of a vehicle being driven rapidly in the vicinity his residence, he is not certain on what street. These men were undoubted by the burglars but they could not be recognized in the dark. Tuesday evening at about 11 o'clock as the City Trustees were adjourning their meeting, two suspicious lookers men sat upon the curbing in front of the photograph gallery east of City Hall. There was no grounds for their arrest, but within an hour other burglary was committed. The officers are at work on a clew. If beet farmers would take their vice of John Wagner, who is acknowledged to be one our most experienced horticulturists, they would undoubtedly have a greater tonnage of beets, as we increased quantity of sugar, when time of harvest comes. Mr. Wagner had just returned with his brother Charles on Tuesday afternoon from a laboratory where the beets were polishing 19 and 20 per cent, when he encountered by the reporter, and we enthusiastic in his praises of this section in beet culture. But he had gone into a beet patch—a dozen miles from the laboratory, kicking away the top layer of ear found the ground as hard as a rock a inch below the surface. The grower had not been properly ploughed, while the beets might go high in sugars yield would be three tons per acre; but they are farmers who cultivate so poor Hleinigkeiten. The leaf of a tobacco plant growing in Dickel's place on Lemon street was 25x14 inches. Mr. Freise has been granted a copy by the Supervisors for the concession of his saloon in town. A motion for a new trial in the Champlin vs. Paschall has been filed in the Superior Court until now (Friday). Littlefield who broke his collar Tuesday evening of last week is along nicely and will probably be able to be out again. Tata Ana has passed an anti-exclusion ordinance, and persons on the sidewalk, hallways or other places may be fined from $5. Steinke's beets, raised on the place west of town, yesterday and 23.4 per cent. This is the test so far, up to the hour of noon press. Arimond came down town with one of some very fine cherries of raising on his place. They were at Anaheim cherries of the thirty-four votes were polled at cool bond election on Saturday, favor of the bonds and 1 against. Rickerson was the inspector and Horr and A. M. Williams applications of F. Conrad and Co. for licenses to maintain at Alamitos, and that of L. Saloon at the Landing, were day denied by the Board of Sons. Gry Smith, whose foot was so crushed in a hay baler on the ranch some six weeks ago, is due about on crutches. Henry Harrow escape from losing his foot safely on the way to perma-trovey. Must have been experiencing kind of the eastern hot spell, for her has been somewhat torrid. Thermometer has hovered about park, but the sea breeze tempers thirst and makes existence anthereabout. Ten carloads of beets were shipped to Buena Park on Tuesday, the end of the season, 3 from Anaheim from Benedict, making a total of The shipments daily during the month from the three places will date about 25 tons. Writer S. Burrell was seriously injured in the fall of the top of a beet that but three tons is the result, when they ought to have four times that crop. Deep ploughing and thorough cultivation is the secret of success; and farmers on light soil should plant their beet seed in February, and cultivate in March, April and May. This, according to Mr. Wagner, is the way to get a good beet crop, and we'll bet a year's subscription he's right. The Supervisors last week adopted an ordinance that all public roads and highways within the county that have been acquired by the county, either by purchase, dedication or condemnation proceedings, are declared to be county roads, and that all public roads and highways hereafter to be acquired are to be similarly regarded. Supervisor Potter objected to the phraseology of the ordinance, although in accord with its purpose, and on that ground voted against it; but it was carried by the votes of the four other members of the board. The new ordinance is one of the results of the present tangled state of road affairs because of the new road law. Quite a delegation of Anaheimers departed for Eastern points on Monday—the first day of the low Christian Endeavor rates to the East. Among the party were Dr. Champion, wife and two children, who departed for Wheelerburg, Ohio; G. B. Burton, wife and daughter, who go to Greencastle, Mo.; Miss Estelle Lewis, who goes to Denver; George Dutton and wife of Buena Park, who go to Michigan, and Peter Weisel, Jr., who goes to Milwaukee. Capt. Halpin, who goes to England, went to Los Angeles on Sunday evening, but joined the party on Monday. The many friends of the voyageurs wish them bon voyage, and hope to see them back again before long. The front window of the Olympic billiard hall has been an object of unusual interest during the week, as it contains a large-sized desert turtle and two Chuckawalla lizards, taken captive on the desert north of Banning by Mr. Johnson, who has lately returned from a prospecting tour on the desert. The varmints seem to be entirely at home and give little heed to the inquisitive glances of the passing throng. Land turtles of this species are found on the desert many miles from water, and live to a great age. The Hatfield boys consider they have a trio of rare beauties in their turtle and the "Chuchawallas," and it is doubtful if the varmints ever had a tithe of the attention paid to them on the desert.

He saw, as well as in the darkness, three men in the middle of the street with his residence, engaged in conversation. One was of small stature others were taller. Mr. Nemetz made out two or three men, positive which, it being quite judging by their voices thinks were three. They moved off town, walking in the middle of street.

Had gone into a beet patch not a miles from the laboratory, and away the top layer of earth, the ground as hard as a rock a few below the surface. The ground had been properly ploughed, and the beets might go high in sugar, would be about three tons to see. Mr. Wagner is of the firm opinion that shallow ploughing and cultivation will not do for beets. Ed costs just as much, the top as much, and the cultivation as much, where the beets yield tons per acre, as where they yield twelve tons per acre; but there farmers who cultivate so poorly higher court.

Mr. Toppin is colored, and is said to be quite a model prisoner. As George Thompson was driving a colt hitched to a cart along Broadway leisurely on Friday afternoon, the animal turned suddenly, upsetting the cart and throwing him violently to the ground. He held on to the reins as best he could, but being thrown upon his back and the wheel of the cart passing over him twice, he was forced to let go, and the colt started for Hahn's stable. Arriving at the entrance of the barn its progress was temporarily stayed by the presence of a load of hay which was being unloaded into the loft. It ran along the sidewalk to the door opening into the carriage repository, into which it bolted precipitately. In the doorway were the two Cramley boys, the elder of whom, Mina Cramley, aged about 12 years, was run into and his leg quite badly lacerated. He was removed to the home of his grand parents in the West End and Dr. Bickford called. Several stitches had to be taken in the wound and it was found that the boy was quite badly injured. No bones were broken, however, and it is thought he will be shortly well enough to return to his home at Chino. The boys' mother drove over from Chino on Saturday to return with them to her home, but owing to the serious nature of the boy's wound was compelled to return without him. George Thompson was quite severely bruised where the cart wheel ran over his body and was otherwise severely shaken up, but no permanent injuries resulted.

Meyer, with an affable superintendent of the ranch, has a large force of hands at work cutting the cots, and a wide expanse of drying fruit is observable, lying in rows upon the ground, after coming down on the sulphur house. Mrs. Steley's apricots are large and luscious and take an exceedingly tempting display, only upon the trees but in their red state as well. Cleanliness is the chief ward everywhere about the drying grounds, and a fancier grade of dried fruit it would be impossible to obtain. The apricots are not, however, only objects of interest about the church, and Mr. Meyer, who is a host for the old school, soon conducts one to his spacious cellars, where the stage of years agone await the coming visitor to tickle his palate and make him feel that life is worth living for all. A visit to the ranch without inspection of the cellars and the ever garden, is contrary to the rule, so one goes away weighted with the conviction that both Mrs. Steley and her step-son, Mr. Meyer, are kindly hospitable people, and one harbors ideas that our section would be the better had we more like them.
