Not in many years had such a peaceable election been in prospect. There were fewer revocations of proxies, and a notable absence of that acrimony that characterized the election of a year ago—and that of the year before. For two hours the voice of the Secretary, calling the roll, sounded monotonously upon the ear, relieved periodically by the answer, "Present," and "Proxy to So-and-So." At noon, when the roll-call was completed and 5800 shares found to be present, Secretary Blennnerhassett announced: "There is a quorum present." President Fay, who had called the meeting to order, and who presided during the deliberations of the day, announced that a recess for luncheon would be taken until 2 o'clock, and meantime it was desired that all outstanding proxies be handed in. At 2 o'clock the Secretary reported that 6019 shares were present or represented by proxy. Of the 6019 shares present, it was estimated that the old board controlled 4719 shares, and the Minority about 1300. The result of the vote showed harmony, have endeavored to manage the affairs of your company with care and economy. If they have failed to satisfy all, in passing judgment upon their work you must not fail to remember that not one of them is justified in devoting his entire time to the work, and that there is neither pleasure nor profit in the position. Wm. J. FAY Dated Jan. 29, 1898. President. The address evoked favorable comment on the part of a number of stockholders, and on motion of Mr. Benchley, seconded by Mr. Rogers, the same was unanimously approved, and the document was referred to the incoming board for their consideration. The next business before the meeting was the adoption of the amendment to the by-laws, offered by Mr. Fay at the last annual meeting, providing that all proxies be handed in to the Secretary of the company not less than 24 hours before the day of election (at 10 o'clock on the day preceding the election), failing to comply with which no proxy will be entitled to vote. After discussion, it was moved by Mr. Rogers, and seconded by Mr. Benchley, that the amendment be carried, and the meeting voted unanimously to adopt it. The new by-law is designed to do away with the intolerable practice of revoking proxies at the last moment before the election, as well as to expedite the business of conducting the same. The chair announced that the next business before the meeting was the election of a new Board of Directors. The chair appointed F. Shanley and O. des Granges tellers; G. W. Sherwood and Andrew Roerden clerks; and E. F. Kellogg and C. C. Chapman judges. Later in the evening, when the counting of the ballots had been all but completed, and a number of contested ballots remained uncounted, it was found necessary, owing to the absence of both judges, to name others to solve the questions concerning the ballots at issue, and F. G. Ryan and Alex Wright were appointed. The contested ballots were referred to them and they decided the matter to the satisfaction of all concerned. Nominations for Directors being declared to be in order, following gentlemen were placed in nomination: L. B. Benchley nominated W. M. McFadden. A. S. Bradford nominated A. Pierotti. M. Nebelung nominated E. Browning. W. M. McFadden nominated W. J. Fay. G. B. Key nominated C. C. Carpenter. E. Browning nominated M. Nebelung. M. L. Rogers nominated L. B. Benchley. Henry Burdorf nominated Wm. Crowther. Voting began at 3 o'clock and continued until 6. The result was Leinigkeiten. Look out for rain the latter part of the week! Geese have been flying overhead nights. The town has surrendered to the Shaw company. Santa Ana is having a hot time over its sewer bond election, which occurs on Saturday. The wife of Gilbert Landell presented him with a bouncing baby daughter on Jan. 31st. The wife of Harry White, living at University, presented him with a new son and heir on Monday morning last. A marriage license was on Monday issued to Charles E. Pacholke, aged 24, of Santa Ana, and Martha E. Krause, aged 23, of this city. N. R. Cottman, manager of the Chino sugar factory, has an interesting notice to farmers in our advertising columns this morning that will repay perusal. A party of four, consisting of Jason Carner, G.W.Coates,Loring Gates and S.C.Shepherd, start to-day for the Alaskan gold fields from the Clair neighborhood. The Methodists and Presbyterians will hold union services, beginning next Monday evening, in the Presbyterian church. Rev.R.B.Taylor of San Bernardino will preach.All are invited to attend. Preaching services in the Presbyterian church this evening and to-morrow evening. Rev.John R.Jones of the Central Presbyterian church, Los Angeles, is expected to preach this evening. The feature of the noon hour during the week has been the playing of the brass band attached to the Shaw company.The band is above the average,and the fancy drill atthe conclusion ofthe mid-day concert is very cleverly executed. Mrs Christine Brandle of Fullerton was arrested for selling liquor without a license,and at her trial on Saturdaythe case resulted ina disagreementofthe jury,six beingfor acquittal and three for conviction.A changeof venueto Orange may be applied forthe second trial. The friend who sends in an anonymous item of news,which we had already learned about,是 reminded thatthe rule in all officesis to pay no attention to unsigned manuscripts.We are gladofthis evidenceof good-will,但itemsofnewsthatare signedbythe sender are much preferred. The weather bureau reports in- present, Secretary Blennerhassett announced: "There is a quorum present." President Fay, who had called the meeting to order, and who presided during the deliberations of the day, announced that a recess for luncheon would be taken until 2 o'clock, and meantime it was desired that all outstanding proxies be handed in. At 2 o'clock the Secretary reported that 6019 shares were present or represented by proxy. Of the 6019 shares present, it was estimated that the old board controlled 4719 shares, and the Minority about 1300. The result of the vote showed that the former candidates (Fay, Browning, McFadden, Nebelung, Benchley and Crowther) received 5044 shares, and the latter (Carpenter and Pierotti) 1650, the accretions being attributable to the voting of floating stock and the later proxies coming in. At 2:20 o'clock the meeting was again called to order, with only a sprinkling of shareholders present, and Secretary Blennerhassett read the minutes of the last annual meeting, held in January of last year. The minutes were approved as read, and then, on motion of Mr. McFadden, the new Board of Audit was elected as follows: C. E. Holcomb, Otto Rust and Alex Wright. An adjournment was here taken to the larger room across the hallway, where tables and chairs had been arranged for the purposes of the meeting. On coming to order, with a large representation of shareholders present, Mr. Fay read the following address: To the stockholders of the Anaheim Union Water Company: At annual meetings of corporate bodies, the elective officers usually present, in addition to the detailed financial statement, a more or less extended report on the physical condition of the property committed to their supervision and care. In this report, the changes, repairs and general betterment of the property are detailed, together with the causes moving the management to undertake such works; and this report also deals to some extent with the impending necessities of the property in the line of further improvements. This custom has not been followed by officers of the Anaheim Union Water Company. The very transitory nature of their official life, and the vicious habit of wholesale proxy voting, may be charged with the failure to make such reports. However, notwithstanding a lack of precedent, I venture to offer a few remarks on the affairs and property of the company. The physical condition of the company's canal has been materially improved during the year by the abolishment of an extended section of unsafe and inefficient ditch, together with a worn-out waste gate and flume, all being part of the North Branch Ditch, lying north of the lands of Benchleys and others, substituting therefor in a superior location a new section of canal with permanent flume and waste gate, and by substituting for Flume 12 an extensive fill and cut. In addition to these larger works there has been constructed a number of minor works, such as new gates and culverts at various points on the lines of distributing canals, all of the work being undertaken solely for the reason that without them a continuous supply of water could not be assured, nor damage to contiguous property be avoided. In the line of impending necessities much might be said. All that ought to be said might become tiresome to you. I shall, therefore, confine my remarks to what I believe to be the most pressing present, Secretary Blennerhassett announced: "There is a quorum present."

In addition to these larger works there has been constructed a number of minor works, such as new gates and culverts at various points on the lines of distributing canals, all of the work being undertaken solely for the reason that without them a continuous supply of water could not be assured, nor damage to contiguous property be avoided. In the line of impending necessities much might be said. All that ought to be said might become tiresome to you. I shall, therefore, confine my remarks to what I believe to be the most pressing of these in their order: First — An extension of the main canal to a point further up the river to a place known as "The Narrows," a cementing of the same at all points where the line is in a gravel or sand formation. In event of failure to so extend the canal as above indicated, continue the cement work from where it now ends to the present head-gate works, and place new sand-waste gates at the lower end of the present cement works. Second — In connection with the Santa Fe Railroad Company, pipe or cement the canal through the granulated formation of the place known as Horseshoe Bend. Third — Construct for office purposes a suitable building wherein may be safely stored the almost invaluable records, papers and other property of the corporation. I may say in passing that some members of the Board exhibit an amount of apathy on this important matter that is not easily accounted for by myself. On the general conditions of the company, as exhibited by the report of the Board of Audit, you are to be congratulated, and to be able to so congratulate you is a source of satisfaction to the Board of Directors. The Board also reports with great pleasure that whereas, at the beginning of their term of office, when to maintain the company's credit money was required, this could only be secured on the condition that the Directors as individuals indorse the eight per cent interest bearing note of the company, at the end of their term of office money can be borrowed by the company on its own unindorsed note at seven per cent. That this improved condition of affairs is of some importance will be realized by all who bear in mind the fact that on the second day of July, 1899, one year and five months hence, bonds of the company amounting to $25,000 must be redeemed. Your directors, acting in complete The Modini-Wood concert, which took place last Friday evening, was exceptionally fine. Mr. and Mrs. Wood were in excellent voice and rendered some delightful selections. Miss Maud Willis took the house by storm with her readings, and responded very happily to the enthusiastic encores. Mrs. Larabee was the piano accompanist. Miss Margaret Landell and Miss Jennie Johnson opened the concert with a duet, Sonata III, by Mozart. This was enjoyed by all as was the "Third Meditation," Jaell, by Miss Landell, being the only piano solo. The house was well filled, netting the L. M. A. S. $53 for the parsonage fund. The parsonage will be begun this week. The population of the Park is rapidly increasing. Congratulations are being extended to Mr. and Mrs. C. E. White upon the arrival of a daughter to gladden their hearts. Tuesday Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Landell were the happy parents of a little girl baby, and Papa Gib struts about with a very self-satisfied air. Bert Moore and wife also have a daughter, and J. B. Shoemacher and wife have a son. At the Wednesday night prayer-meeting there was quite a spirited discussion on the subject of "the true and false ideas of God." These meetings are well attended, much interest being manifested. —Anaheim lodge, I. O. O. F., held an initiation of new members on last Tuesday evening. Among the visiting brethren were A. C. Curtis and A. W. Thompson of Santa Ana; R. Iler, Canada; F. E. Upham, Olive; R. Sherman, Los Angeles, and others. The visiting brothers assisted the members of this lodge in conferring the degree. The officers recently elected and installed for the present term are: Charles Foreman, P. G.; Charles Boege, N. G.; H. Stern, V. G.; Frank Gates, Secretary; J. P. Zeyn, Treasurer; E. W. Champlin, R. S. N. G.; A. M. Williams, S. S. N. G.; Oliver Hill, W. George Dunn, R. S. V. G.; Richard Melrose, Conductor; Wm. Young, O.G. —Charley Calmar was struck upon the head with a gas pipe in the hand of C. M. Holmes, president of the Santa Ana Gas Company, in that city on Monday at noon, and an unfounded report prevailed in town next day that he was dead. Calmar had been working for Holmes, and desiring to quit went to the gas-works demanding his time. He is said to have been under the influence of liquor and abuse. Holmes, who sought to avoid him Holmes grasped a piece of gas pipe and struck Calmar upon the head, fracturing the skull. The report of his death proved to be unfounded, for partly over from Santa Ana on Tuesday evening brought reports that Calmar was seen on the streets that day. While working on his windmill with his son John at noon on Thursday last Alex Henry met with an accident that was attended by very serious consequences, and his son was also seriously injured. Mr. Henry was of opinion that his windmill was not pumping water, and a ladder was placed to permit of pouring water into the pipe at the top of the tank, in order to start the pump. John Henderson mounted to the top of the ladder, so sixteen feet above the ground, and Mr Henry was holding it upon the roof of the adjoining pumphouse, some feet above the ground. Just as John Henderson was about to pour the water into his pipe, the ladder fell, precipitating both gentlemen to the ground, but falling through the roof of the house and John falling on top of his father Mr. Henry fell astride a four-inch water pipe conducting water to his reservoir, and was rendered unconscious. He was later resuscitated taken to his home, where he and his son who also suffered serious injuries have since been resting as easily could be expected. The windmill Maleinigkeiten.

Attention is directed to the advertisement of the Placentia nursery, of which A. S. Bradford is the proprietor. Mr. Bradford has a splendid stock of Riverside Washington Navel orange and Eureka and Villa Franca lemon trees, which are free from frost or scale, and true to name, and parties purchasing them will find that when they come into bearing they will be just as represented. Read the advertisement and call upon Mr. Bradford when in need of nursery stock. Horticultural Commissioner Huntington informs us that the county board has received information from the State Board of Horticulture that a series of meetings will be held in Southern California next April, convening two days at Los Angeles, two days at Riverside and two days at San Diego. Mr. Huntington suggests that an effort be made to bring the State board to Orange county for a day. We second the motion. How many of the fruit growers of the outlying sections will be able to attend the meetings held in Los Angeles? Very few. Let the State board give Anaheim a day. The horticulturists of this section will give them a royal welcome. A social event of more than passing note was the farewell party given by Miss Lewis last Thursday evening in honor of her brother Fred, who will soon depart for Seattle. The affair was handsomely appointed throughout, as are all the hospitalities extended by this charming hostess. The early part of the evening was devoted to progressive hearts, after which a general social time was had. The two first prizes were won by Mrs. Arthur Lewis and Fred Backs; the second prizes by Miss Fay and Edward Woelke, and the booby prizes by Mrs. John Hartung and Dr. Houck. One of the most enjoyable parties of the season was given by Mrs. Passmore at her beautiful home in Olive on last Saturday afternoon, at which she entertained the young ladies' euchre club and a few friends. The luncheon was an elaborate affair, and the table decorations, consisting of violets, were striking and elaborate. From the center piece, a glass vase filled with violets, were stretched violet ribbons which were tied in large bows at the corners of the table. The place cards were decorated with violets. The afternoon was spent in playing various games. At the memory contest Miss Jessie Melrose won the first prize, a china cup and saucer, while Miss Edith Fay 'got' the booby, a paper weight.

The session was prolonged until midnight, and at one time the Council adjourned, it seeming to be impossible to arrive at an agreement between the city and the contractors, Mr. Lawrence demanding $175 for the extra size of fly wheel on the engine at the powerhouse. This was objected to by the Council, and inasmuch as Mr. Lawrence at first insisted upon its payment, there appeared to be nothing to do but to adjourn without action. Subsequently the contractor relented and expressed his willingness to forego the demand. The council was again called to order, City Attorney Chynoweth, who had gone home, was sent for and returned, and the electric light plant was after further discussion accepted. A warrant in the amount of $3512 50 was drawn in favor of the contractors. The city retains $200 until the ten transformers have been satisfactorily rewound. Lost.

Address, Carl Penke, Anaheim P.O. Senator Jones informs us that Chino ranch company desires to make contracts for 1000 acres of beets in vicinity, in addition to the 3000 acres ready contracted for by the Chino tory.
