The water board met in regular session on Saturday afternoon; present Directors Fay, Browning, Benchley, Nebelung and Crowther. Mr. Fay said that in reference to the slant in the East-street cement ditch, referred to at the board's last meeting, the same was nine-tenths of a foot in the first 250 feet of the ditch, instead of one and nine-tenths feet, as reported at the last meeting, a mistake having inadvertently crept into his figures. Mr. Crowther reported that on a recent visit to Santa Ana he had called at the County Auditor's office and procured the warrant in the amount of $10 in favor of the company, drawn by the Supervisors in part payment for pipe work across the county road, referred to at the last meeting as having been left uncalled for in the Auditor's office. The warrant he turned over to the Secretary. Attorney Melrose reported that he had filed with the Secretary the notice of record of the completion of the filling in of the old Cajon ditch at Flume 12. Mr. Crowther asked for further time in reporting upon the sectionizing of the ditch, his duties as a Grand Juror having interfered with his committee work. Granted. Messrs Fay and Crowther of the Ditch Committee reported, in the matter of the communication of W. L. Hale, requesting that some means be supplied to furnish him with water, that inasmuch as no request had been made by Mr. Hale while the old ditch at Flume 12 was being filled in, from which he was formerly served with water, that the committee had nothing to recommend.

The chair called the board's attention to several matters demanding their attention, one of them being the necessity for the appointment of a temporary secretary, to serve during the absence of the secretary. The perfunctory transfers of water stock also came in for a share of criticism, and a written opinion was asked from the attorney relative to the power of the board to charge for such transfers.

R. Cory, the advance agent of Shaw'stheatrical company, was in town yesterday arranging for their appearance at the Opera-house the whole of next week. The advertisement of this popular company will be found among the new advertisements on the second page this morning. The company are this week at Santa Ana.From the Blade of Tuesday evening we take the following reference to the show: Sam Shaw and his excellent company of players opened their season of one week in this city last night at the Grand. Although the company, when last here, was one of the best on the road, it is really stronger and better now. A very fine entertainment is given every night, and those who patronize this show need have no fear of being disappointed." "The Westernner," as given by the Shaw company last night, was a very enjoyable play, with sufficient comedy interspersed to be very amusing. It is worthy of comment that Mr. Shaw and his company do not find it necessary, in order to produce a laugh from the audience, to indulge in any horse play orallerged jokes whose propriety might be called in question. In short, the company is one of unusual ability, and their work is both entertaining and clean. A large audience attended last night, and this will undoubtedly be the case during the entire engagement. RECORD OF THE TEMPERATURE. Maximum Minimum Average.

Next Saturday is Christmas,the day of days throughout Christendom.Here in this neighborhood the day will be very-happily spent,if one may get an inference of the many beautiful shop displays one sees about town,and the bundles of presents in the arms of shoppers.We wish all of our readers a Merry Christmas,and a Happy New Year!

He will bring the presents in in a wonderfully meek way, entirely different from anything ever seen in this vicinity. It will be a rare treat to see this part of the program; every child in Plaentia should be there. The Santa Claus part of the past Christmas entertainments have been excellent and showed the hands of skilled persons in getting them up, but the present one will knock them all into oblivion. Hugo Wetzel is building a store and Postoffice. After Jan. 1st Mrs. Wetzel will take charge of the Postoffice. Mr. Stafford will leave on Monday next for Chicago.

P. des Granges versus the city, to recover $20 alleged to be due him, was on Monday last in Judge Landell's court decided in favor of plaintiff by default, the city having decided not to contest the case. As plaintiff cannot levy upon city property to recover payment of his claim, the next legal step, as we are informed, if the city still refuses to turn over to him the warrant already drawn in his favor for the amount sued for, will be to bring mandamus proceedings in the Superior Court to compel, the city to pay the amount due. This the city will hardly require plaintiff to undergo, and at the next meeting of the council the bill will probably come up for final settlement. —At the meeting of Anaheim Council of the Fraternal Aid Association, held on Saturday evening last, the following officers were elected to serve for the ensuing year: Henry Kuchel, President; Mrs. Fred Mickle, Vice-President; V.

The council will entertain its friends at one of its usually well-prepared spreads, and the public will be invited to witness the ceremonies of a public installation. —The new stone fence at Mr. Hart's residence on Claudina street has been completed, and makes quite a conspicuous adornment to the premises. The fence is made of cement and cobble-stones, and besides a wide concrete sidewalk in front, there is an artistically constructed hitching-post of concrete and a carriage-step of the same material. Within there are two large octagonal-shaped concrete flower-stands, upon which ferns and flowers will add their loveliness to the garden, and concrete walks lead to different points in the yard. The improvements add materially to the appearance of the surroundings, and reflect credit upon the constructors, Wm. Elchler and Frank Gates. —While seated in an upstairs room at his residence on Sunday afternoon reading, about 1 o'clock, Mr. Cahen had his attention attracted to a horse running madly through his yard. The horse was in harness, the tugs dangling at his feet and urging him on to still greater flight.

Ramon Arce, the Capistrano liquor man who seeks to compel the supervisors to grant him a saloon license, scored a point in his mandamus suit which may indicate the nature of the final settlement of the case. Ramon applied for a license to reopen the place formerly kept by Dolores Garcia, but the board took adverse action. He then instituted proceedings to compel the supervisors to grant the license as prayed for. The case came up before Judge Lucien Shaw of Los Angeles, presiding in the Superior Court at Santa Ana. In his petition for a writ of mandamus, Ramon alleges that the ordinance is null and void in that particular granting the board power to use arbitrary discretion in such matters; that the exercise of such power destroys the uniformity and general operation of the act, and gives the board too much latitude in deciding upon the merits of any application. The judge directed that a writ be issued ordering the board to appear and show cause why the license should not be granted. No inconsiderable controversy exists among cattle-men regarding the nature of the disease that has caused the death of many Orange county cattle during the past year. The disease resembles murrain, but microscopical examination of the blood and spleen of affected animals has failed to show anthrax bacilli, which would be present in murrain. Whatever the disease, it causes death in nine cases out of ten. Dr. Vans Agnew of Santa Ana, who has treated many of these cases, states that in a number of post mortems in but one case has he found the lungs of the animal affected. This was a cow that died near Bolsa. Dr. Vans Agnew says that it was not anthrax, but tuberculosis, and a very pronounced case, nearly one-third of the lungs being destroyed. While the former disease has not assumed the extent of a year ago, it is still serious enough to merit the closest observation from stock owners. One of the heaviest losers by this disease is William Lamb of New Hope district, who last spring watched his cattle die by the dozen without being able to check the malady. He lost 150 head, and several other stockmen in this neighborhood have experienced heavy losses. The damp, boggy districts in the swamp seem to be most favorable to the propagation of the disease. Dr. Eddy's team attached to his buggy came near being the principals in a bad runaway on Friday, when, as they were being unhitched from in front of his office, they took fright at the Uncle Tom's Cabin band, which was up from the Opera-house in their street parade at the time, headed by the colored Lew Johnson prancing about with his great silver-headed baton in front of the players. The horses never saw anything like that in South Dakota. They ran up on the sidewalk in front of Hank Stough's blacksmith shop, to make their escape, but were stopped when serious results seemed imminent. The Doctor got into the buggy and turning the horses into the street and toward home applied the lash as a salutory lesson to the fiery untamed steeds, and the band played on as if nothing had happened. Senator Jones has had the kindness to forward us a copy of a letter received from Mr. Cottman, manager of the Chino sugar factory, relative to an advance in the date of the December pay day, to permit of the farmers receiving their payments previous to the holidays, as follows: T.J.Jones, Esq., Anaheim, Cal.-Dear Sir: It having occurred to us that payment for December deliveries of beets before the holidays might be acceptable, Mr.H.T.Oxnard's permission to make payment in advance of the regular pay day was solicited on December 15th by telegram, and his reply received this morning as follows: "Pay farmers as suggested." We are, therefore, pleased to inform you that checks will be mailed you on December 22d, for distribution to the farmers for beets delivered this month. Taking advantage of this opportunity to wish our farmer friends the compliments of the season we are, yours very truly, CHINO VALLEY BEET SUGAR CO. N.R.Cottman，Manager. Dec.16th，1897.
