The fire boys are entitled to a vote of thanks from the entire community for their praiseworthy work in extinguishing the fire on Friday evening. Certainly the blaze seemed at one time to threaten a very disastrous conflagration. Had the flames communicated with Dickel's warehouse, across the narrow thoroughfare, where a large quantity of combustibles were stored, it is not easy to say where the fire would have ended. But thanks to the efficient management of the fire company, and the excellent pressure maintained in the water pipes, the danger point was soon passed, and there was at no time thereafter any probability of further harm than the destruction of the building where the fire originated. Two streams of water were thrown upon the fire as effectively as could have been done by the fire department of any large city, it being easy to throw the water to a height of 200 feet, with sufficient force to subdue the flames in the shortest possible time. The fire department is a credit to Anaheim, and with the excellent water pressure, we have an immunity from destruction by fire that ought to operate in the material reduction of the prevailing exorbitant insurance rates. There is one suggestion that might be made with profit at this juncture. It is this: The fire department ought to turn out for practice once a week, every Saturday night, or at furthest once a fortnight. Then the art of applying the hose to the hydrants with the least possible expenditure of time may be learned by the firemen, and taught to new members; the hose may be tested under pressure; the stream carried the length of the combined sections of hose; and four streams applied, instead of two. All this would result in incalculable good to the department, and have a resultant goodly effect to the community. It would train the boys in the service, keep the hose and apparatus in good condition, and show the people just what means of protection from fire we have at hand. But the fire boys cannot be expected to fact that he has placed himself in a position to become again a member of the board. An experienced hydraulic engineer and a gentleman of wide observation and good judgment, he is just the man for the stockholders to seek to elect to the place. Regarding the other candidates for membership of the new board, mention is made of the names of Messrs. Benchley, Browning, Nebelung and Crowther of the present board; and Messrs. McFadden, Chapman and Bradford of Placentia. Directors Amerige and Key will probably retire. Seven members of the new board are to be chosen, and no doubt, from the excellent material to select from, an A No.1 board will be elected. The annual meeting occurs on the 29th instant. EDWARDS—HANSEN. Wedding of Well-Known Young People at Placentia. Miss Mattie Hansen and Arthur Edwards, both of Placentia, were married on Wednesday, the 29th of December, at noon, at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. P. Hansen, on Placentia avenue. Rev. F. R. Holcomb of Fullerton performed the ceremony. The bride looked lovely in white silk trimmed with lace, bridal veil and orange blossoms. The bride's sister, Miss Annie Hansen, acted as bridesmaid and Mr. Henry Schulte as best man. Mr. Hansen is one of the oldest settlers of this valley. The bride has grown up here and is highly respected by hosts of friends. Mr. Edwards has been a resident of Placentia for several years and has made many friends by his strict attention to business, his affability and courtesy. The wedding guests were near relatives and old-time friends and acquaintances. Among them were Mr. and Mrs. Geo. B.Key, Mr. and Mrs. Theo. Staley, Mr. and Mrs.Wm. M.McFadden, Mr. and Mrs.Devonshire, Mr. and Mrs.N.Johnson, Mr. and Mrs.T.Anderson, Mr. and Mrs.J.Hetebrink, Rev.F.R.Holcomb and wife,Mrs.Mette Hansen,Mrs.Edwardson; Capt.H.Wrede; Misses Sadle and Ruby Crowther,Mabel Schulte,May Haslip,Minnie Hetebrink Miss Edwardson,Miss Johnson,Myrte Staley,Mette Hansen,Lena Hansen,Annie Hansen and Christina Hansen; Messrs.C.Puckett,Henry Schulte,D.Hetebrink,Clarence McFadden,Sander SchulteJohn Tuffree,Ralph McFadden,Fred Tuffree,L.Edwardson,T.Hansen and DANCED THE OLD YEAR Sixth Annual Masquerade Ball Gave the Fullerton Band. The concert and masquerade given by the Fullerton band at Bourne's hall on Friday evening is most largely attended as it is the most enjoyable affair ever given this popular musical organ. Early in the evening the crowd assembled and soon the hall was with a representative gathering people of the entire countryside.New Year's masquerades given by Fullerton band have been their events of the year in our lively boring burg, and the sixth concert and masquerade proved no exception to the rule fore part of the evening we voted to a concert program band, under the leadership of Crowther. It is doubtful if even band played to better advantage on this occasion.The selection frequently applauded,the dance being of an especially catchy The hall was beautifully decorated streamers,evergreens,and sprigs of holly suspended as als from the ceiling. The maskers began to arrive yet the numbers of the concord gram were being played,and b o'clock,when the grand march announced by Floor Manager Stone number of maskers upon the floor ceeded the attendance at any masquerade given by this organ.The merry throng tripped tha fantastic until shortly before midnight when unmasking was announced nishing the usual surprises. At midnight a sumptuous supper served at Chaucey Huggans'Hception,where long tables had groaned under their weight on things.The excellence of that may be imagined when it is probably never in the history hotel has a more sumptuous spread placed before its guests.After dancing was resumed,and count until a late hour of the morning all retired in the conviction that annual masquerades of the F band have lost none of their joy. Among those present in mass following: LADIES. Elnora Stone—Jockey Girl. and red satin. Ida Warling — Evening o Pink with white. Bertha Selinger—West Texas Meta Rorden — Sea spirit. and green. Retta Stone—Fairy. Lena Hanson — Kite. Pink trimmed with red and blue kite. Mrs.Della Stone—Cleopatra In conversation a day or two ago with one of the heaviest taxpayers in this city, whose name appears upon the petition presented the City Trustees praying for the transfer of the taking of the assessment and collection of the city taxes to Santa Ana, and to whose efforts more than anything else is due the signing of the petition by most of those whose names appear upon it, he stated, with reference especially to the Marshal's office, that he believed in paying a competent official a respectable salary; and while he favored economy in public expenditure; he did not believe in cutting down the stipend paid that official to the verge of compelling his resignation. He cited the experience of our city some years ago, before the election of the present Marshal, when Center street was transformed during Sunday afternoons into considerable of a boisterous thoroughfare. Men and boys from adjoining towns in the county made it a practice to come to Anaheim of a Sunday afternoon and rollick to their hearts' content, with scarce a soul to say them nay. Drunkenness ran riot, and orderly people were driven from the street. Petty thefts were of common occurrence. Buggy robes and whips were stolen, and it was unsafe to permit portable articles to be lying around. All this and more, to our reproach be it said. But very happily all this sort of thing is at an end. A more orderly community does not exist in the State. Our friend recognizes the power that brought this all about, and assures us he does not favor any sort of false economy whereby any semblance of this rowdyism may be made to return. We want an able, courageous and fearless officer for the office of Marshal of this city, and offenders who come here to commit breaches of the peace should be REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS For The Week Ending January 3, 1898.

Our friend recognizes the power that brought this all about, and assures us he does not favor any sort of false economy whereby any semblance of this rowdyism may be made to return. We want an able, courageous and fearless officer for the office of Marshal of this city, and offenders who come here to commit breaches of the peace should be promptly placed under arrest and imprisoned, as they are. Let us have economy in public expenditure; let us have no excess of officials to prey upon the taxpayers; but let us have no false economy designed (in some places at least) at driving competent men from office. It costs the city $425 to take the municipal assessment and collect the taxes, and the Assessor's commissions for the collection of personal property taxes amount to $40. making the total cost $465. This amount may be considerably reduced, in the wise discretion of the City Council; and the Marshal's fees for collecting licenses may also come in for a reduction. The Council is eminently fitted for this curtailment of public expenditure, and we believe they will reduce the outlay to the minimum figure. But let us hear no more about sending the work of taking the assessment and collecting our city taxes over to Santa Ana. Santa Ana is a way-up town, and it is filled with good people, but we ought to be able to manage our municipal affairs ourselves. We are authorized to announce that, yielding to the solicitation of a wide circle of friends, Mr. Fay has consented to stand for re-election as a member of the water board. He had at first decided not to be a candidate for the place; but considers that if the people want him to serve he will yield his own personal inclinations to their wishes, and stand for the office. The largest shareholders in this vicinity have expressed an earnest wish that he be again a member of the directorate, and they, as well as the other stockholders of the company, are to be congratulated upon TOO MANY WIVES. A CHICAGO MAN HAD SIX MORE THAN THE LAW ALLOWS. CHICAGO, Jan. 4.—David Bates, accused of having six wives more than the law allows, and as a result of whose arrest several months ago he has had steady employment at the dime museums, was this afternoon convicted of bigamy in the first case against him. He was given a fine of $1,000 and an indeterminate sentence in the penitentiary. Upon the announcement of the verdict, the examination of venireman for a jury to hear the second charge against the prisoner was begun immediately. It is also proposed to press a charge of perjury against Bates, based on admissions made by him to-day on the witness-stand. Three of the wives were present in court. RECORD OF THE TEMPERATURE.

The little A is now trying to get the Fleise to release him so that he can England. Lord Wm. Beresfe Pierre Lorillard have offered him 000 for the first claim on his for the season of 1898. Sloan has holding out for $20,000, a suitor William is willing to give, but Lorillard objects to. Sloan has Florida to see Lorillard and arrange to get his release from Fleischmanns. It is understood other prominent English turfs made Sloan an offer of $7500 for on call on his services. This is said, is close to the Prince of Wales and it is this offer that probably led the report that Sloan would be the Prince's colors. One thing remains that if Sloan returns to Florida he can ride in every race every day he wishes to. He will have his full and will have to use much information in accepting the mountain him. INCED THE OLD YEAR OUT. In the Annual Masquerade Ball Given by the Fullerton Band. The concert and masquerade ball taken by the Fullerton band at Chadorne's hall on Friday evening was most largely attended as well as most enjoyable affair ever given by the popular musical organization. Only in the evening the crowd began to assemble and soon the hall was filled with a representative gathering of the people of the entire countryside. The New Year's masquerades given by the Fullerton band have been the social events of the year in our lively neighing burg, and the sixth annual concert and masquerade proved to be exception to the rule. The part of the evening was devoted to a concert program by the head, under the leadership of Prof. Wether. It is doubtful if ever had played to better advantage than this occasion. The selections were frequently applauded, the dance music of an especially catchy order. The hall was beautifully decorated in covered streamers, evergreens, flowers and sprigs of holly suspended at intermittent from the ceiling. The maskers began to arrive while the numbers of the concert program were being played, and before 9 o'clock, when the grand march was announced by Floor Manager Stone, the number of maskers upon the floor exceeded the attendance at any previous masquerade given by this organization. The merry throng tripped the lightest until shortly before midnight, when unmasking was announced, furishing the usual surprises. At midnight a sumptuous supper was served at Chauncey Huggans' Hotel Redemption, where the long tables literally opened under their weight of good wings. The excellence of the repast may be imagined when it is said that probably never in the history of the hotel has a more sumptuous spread been preceded before its guests. After suppering was resumed, and continued until a late hour of the morning, when retired in the conviction that the annual masquerades of the Fullerton and have lost none of their joyousness. Among those present in mask were following: LADIES. Elnora Stone—Jockey Girl. Black red satin. Ida Warling — Evening costume. Kink with white. Bertha Selinger — West Texas girl. Meta Rorden — Sea spirit. White green. Retta Stone — Fairy. Lena Hanson — Kite. Pink dress, dressed with red and blue kites. Mrs. Della Stone — Cleopatra. Blue QUEEN VOCAL QUARTET. Concert of Exceptional Merit to be Given at the Opera House Next Tuesday Evening. Tom E. Rowan of Los Angeles was in town on Tuesday arranging for the appearance here on next Tuesday evening of the Queen Vocal Quartet, which is composed of Gertrude Auld-Thomas, first soprano; Edith A. Preston, second soprano; Loleta Levete Rowan, first alto; Isabel Marquis Wyatt, second alto; all the ladies being singers of an exceptionally high order of merit. The Los Angeles Express says of the quartet: "The Queen Vocal Quartet came before their audience at Music Hall last night in a modest and unsuming way, by no flourishes claiming success before they had earned it. The first number and the following encore at once settled the singers' claims to artistic and dainty finish, and the audience, which was composed of people who are generous in patronizing musical affairs, and therefore sometimes long-suffering in bad causes, settled back in a comfortable enjoyment of the fact that we have a quartet of women who are all working on the same artistic lines towards smoothness and finish, and whose voices blend deliciously." Miss Preston sang Massenet's 'Then Weep, O Grief Worn Eyes' with understanding and feeling, and received a deserved encore. She has a clear, true soprano, which is the least cultivated voice of the quartet, yet she is plainly on the way to the finish the others already possess. Mrs. Wyatt has a deep and resonant voice, which with her calm manner and thorough conception of musical art, becomes extremely fascinating to her hearsers. The quartet's singing of Schumann's 'Little Sandman' roused the audience to their first enthusiasm, and the singers were recalled in a manner which leaves no doubt as to their popularity. Mrs. Rowan earned hearty applause for her rendering of Mozart's L'Addio, which she gave with perfect feeling and taste. Mrs. Gertrude Auld-Thomas is a singer of whom Los Angeles may be proud. She electrified the audience by her singing of Meyerbeer's 'Shadow Song.' Her voice is clear, strong, and full, and her execution well-nigh perfect." Gertrude Auld-Thomas is the sopran singer who, during her successful concert season in London and in Paris was the protege of Lady Dufferin. At one of Mrs. Auld-Thomas' English concerts, Queen Victoria and Princess Mary of Teck were patronesses. For two years Mrs. Auld-Thomas was the favorite pupil of Madam Marchesi, and has aroused great interest and enthusiasm among musical people wherever she has sung. Speaking of her singing the Los Angeles Herald says: "Of Mrs. Auld-Thomas what shall we say? Words fail to describe that wonderful secondarily commercial. A corporation has been formed, with the secretary of the New York Stock Exchange at its head, to purchase arable land and farm buildings in the States of Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire and Vermont, and to resell them on such term as to attract purchasers in large cities. The plan is indorsed by John Wana-maker, Mrs. Ballington Booth, Nathaniel S. Roseman, manager of the Hebrew charity fund. Officers will be appointed here to-morrow. It is estimated that more than 1,200,000 acres of rich, fallow land, under cultivation twenty years ago, lies idle to-day in the New England States, and it is the intention of those who have associated themselves together for the purpose to secure by option and by outright purchases all, or nearly all, of this vast territory, and to populate it with material drawn from the crowded cities. Missionary work will be begun in the large cities, principally New York and Brooklyn, with the assistance of all organizations interested in bettering the condition of society. The president of the company is A. Willis Lightbourne, secretary of the New York Wool Exchange. George M. Atkins is treasurer and Charles Roble general manager. President Lightbourne said of the scheme: "Our organization, while a business enterprise, is founded on a basis of true public spirit, and its incorporation under the laws of State of Maine is hailed with delight throughout New England, for our success means the putting of new life and new blood into a territory whose fruitfulness should produce millions of revenue." WHEAT BURNED AT STOCKTON. Losses Not so Great as at First Reported. STOCKTON, Jan. 4.—The loss in fire of this morning which destroyed two warehouses belonging to the Farmers' Union and Milling Company, together with large amounts of wheat, barley and rye, will fall most heavily on the farmers of the San Joaquil Valley, who had their crops stored in the warehouses waiting for the advance in price of wheat that they so confidently expect. As a general thing the farmers were without insurance on the grain, unless they had borrowed money on it, in which event they had insured to the amount of the mortgage. Their own risk they carried themselves. An examination of the books shows that a larger amount of grain had been moved out of the warehouses during the past few days than was at first figured on. The amount destroyed was 7792 tons of grain, of which 1453 tons SOUTHERN PACIFIC COMPANY In making plans for a trip to any East it is well to remember that three routes can be had over the South-east route and via Portland.

At one of Mrs. Auld-Thomas' English concerts, Queen Victoria and Princess Mary of Teck were patronesses. For two years Mrs. Auld-Thomas was the favorite pupil of Madam Marchesi, and has aroused great interest and enthusiasm among musical people wherever she has sung. Speaking of her singing the Los Angeles Herald says: "Of Mrs. Auld-Thomas what shall we say? Words fail to describe that wonderful voice which one moment dies away, till you feel the tone rather than hear it, and at the next bursts forth in a melodious sound that is startling in its contrast, yet all the while so sympathetic, so pure and warm that the listener involuntarily exclaims, 'What more could be desired in a human voice!'"

FROST SWEPT FLORIDA. Every Orange Tree in the State Said to be Either Killed or Frost Bitten. NEW YORK, Jan. 3.-The Sur's Jacksonville, Fla., special says that the most disastrous freeze ever known has Florida in its grasp, and no one can estimate the loss to the farmers and fruit growers. With the new year a north wind came, and down went the mercury, until this morning, in the southernmost county of Dade, it was 26, the lowest point ever reached in the county. The pineapple farms for many miles in both directions are one great bonfire last night, but no good came of it to the broken-hearted farmers. The freeze is here and all is lost. Every orange tree in the State is either killed or frost-bitten, the young trees suffering most, but many that escaped the last freeze are gone this time. The most wonderful sight ever witnessed in Lake Worth was that of hundreds of thousands of dead fish this morning. The lake was completely covered with frozen fish. One New York City dealer picked up 600 pounds of frozen bluefish and shipped them north this morning. The orange growers along the Indian river are frantic, and all of the truck farmers see nothing but starvation this winter. Here are some of the reports of the thermometer in the winter resorts: Palm Beach, 26; Fort Pierce, 28; Rockledge, 20; Ocala, 22; Winter Park, 21; Cocoa, 20; Miami, the most southerly portion on the east coast, 34, the lowest ever known in any of these places. The weather is still cold. Guests at the great hotels are compelled to remain in steam-heated rooms. JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Jan. 4.-The cold weather of January 1 and 2 did considerable damage to vegetables, but none of a permanent character. Orange trees will in some instances lose their foliage and in exposed places on the northern border of the orange belt the trees will lose a part of their tender growth. Owing to the fact, however, that the sap was down, the trees themselves were able to resist unscathed even lower temperature. Reports from the pineapple belt of the east coast indicate that the damage to pineapples was trifling.

CARE FOR EMPLOYEES. The Plan Which a Large Manufacturer Found Successful. The question, "What is to become of the old man?" is one that is frequently discussed. Generally it is meant to apply to men who have not been able to save sufficient money to support them in their declining years and whose economic efficiency has become impaired by the passing of years. To be depend upon their children or relatives is a humiliation that would imbibate that part of their lives which should be free from care. The almahouse is a horror of degradation from which they shrink. In some countries the governments have endeavored to solve the problem by a system of labor pensions. This is done in Germany; but despite its merits, it still suffices its merits, it never levied upon the following property: to wit: The North half of the East half for west quarter of the Northeast quarter for County of Oregon; and state of California dated the 5th day of November; in motion wherein Herman Starr recovered judgment against Anselm Nine-nine; in number ninety-nine; in cost $77; in wage $75; in point at greatly reduced rates months.

and Sloan will ride this year has not been settled. The little American now trying to get the Fleischmanns release him so that he can ride in England. Lord Wm. Beresford and Merre Lorillard have offered him $15,000 for the first claim on his services for the season of 1898. Sloan has been holding out for $20,000, a sum Lord William is willing to give, but which Lorillard objects to. Sloan has gone Florida to see Lorillard and try to arrange to get his release from the Fleischmanns. It is understood another prominent English turfman has made Sloan an offer of $7500 for a second call on his services. This man, it said, is close to the Prince of Wales, and it is this offer that probably started the report that Sloan would ride in the Prince's colors. One thing is certain, that if Sloan returns to England can ride in every race every day if wishes to. He will have his hands held and will have to use much discrimination in accepting the mounts offered. ABANDONED FARMS. MILLIONS OF ACRES OF ARABLE LAND IN NEW ENGLAND TO BE RECLAIMED. NEW YORK, Dec. 2.—New England's abandoned farms are to be reclaimed, restocked and reoperated on a plan that is primarily philanthropic and The question, "What is to become of the old man?" is one that is frequently discussed. Generally it is meant to apply to men who have not been able to save sufficient money to support them in their declining years and whose economic efficiency has become impaired by the passing of years. To be dependent upon their children or relatives is a humiliation that would imbitter that part of their lives which should be free from care. The almshouse is a horror of degradation from which they shrink. In some countries the governments have endeavored to solve the problem by a system of labor pensiona. This is done in Germany; but, despite its merits, it still savors of charity or paternalism. A few individuals have sought for a solution in this country. In at least one community the employer of 1,000 men insures the lives of all his workmen up to $8,000, and after 25 years of continuous service an employee may retire and continue to draw full wages as long as he lives. To do this the employer says that it costs him not over 1 per cent of his wages account, which he regards as the cheapest possible insurance against strikes and against the disturbance caused by constantly changing his working force. He puts by every year that small percentage of his profits to the account of wear and tear upon machinery. He is an earner advocate of a national labor pension and insurance system—not by the government, but by an association of employers. Notice is given out from Washington of a new counterfeit $100 silver certificate. The chief engineer at the bureau of engraving and printing announced the counterfeit a very dangerous production. In view of the dangerous character of the counterfeit, Secretary Gade has decided to stop issuing and to call in all $100 silver certificates, of which there are $26,000,000 outstanding. These will be exchanged for silver certificates of smaller denomination and the plates destroyed. As soon as new plates can be engraved a new series will be issued. Assistant treasurers at all the sub-treasury cities will be requested to send to the treasury at Washington all $100 silver certificates in their possession, and to request all banks, trust companies and other moneyed institutions to do the same. Secretary Gage desired this statement made that in his judgment it was unsafe for business men to accept certificates of this denomination, and in case any were now on hand they should be sent to the banks for transmission to Washington.

AN EVERYDAY HEROINE. The Country Malden; the Wicked Stage Company and the Tailor Made Girl. Four reckless persons had clambered into the stage, an old man, a middle aged woman, a young man and a tailor made girl. At Fiftieth street a dressmaker's little girl struggled in with a huge box. Town life was evidently new to her. Her rosy cheeks announced country air to the least observing. She held her money in her hand. Looking dubiously about, she finally spied the money box and dropped in the coin. After this she waited expectantly. Nothing ocurred, however, and she began flushing and paling with nervous indecision. At last she resolutely stood up, attracted the driver's attention and called to him: "How do I get my change? I put a quarter in the box," she asked. "Yese onghter a-handed it up," said the man. "Yese can't git it now." "But it's all I have," protested the girl. "Git it off the new passengers," yelled the driver and turned away. It was all the money she had, but how could she "get it off the new pasengers?" Every one in the stage had become interested, but no one volunteered any advice. Two tears rolled down the rosy cheeks. The stage stopped, and an old lady scrambled in. As she took out her money, a 5 cent piece, the tailor made girl leaned over to her. "Will you give me that for this little girl?" she asked. "She dropped in a quarter by mistake, and the driver said the new passengers might make it up to her." The old lady beamingly handed over the nickel. She felt that the stage company was being rigidly but justly dealt with at last. Then a man got in. This was harder for the tailor made girl, but she made the request again and handed a second fare to the grateful young person from the country. The whole stageful was our connection at Molave for the famous gold mining camp of Randsburg is superb; good hotel at Molave and elegant stage coaches through to the city of gold.
