LOCAL NEWS OF INTEREST Memorial Day Exercises on Monday Afternoon. The Cemetery Filled With a Patriotic Throng, and the Graves of the Departed Soldiers Strewn With Flowers—Impressive Exercises, and a Splendid Oration by Mr. Chapman, the Orator of the Day—Recruiting Officers in Town Taking Applications for Volunteers—Two Baseball Games and Their Scores—Death of John Selinger—Albert Bittner Meets With a Bad Accolent—Canning Company Rushing Work Actively, and a Third Assessment Levied to Pay for Machinery—To Start Operations by the 20th—Local Brevities Memorial Day was celebrated in time-honored fashion on Monday by the patriotic citizens of Anaheim and surrounding towns in an imposing pageant that eclipsed all previous celebrations in the multitudes of the people out to strew with flowers the last resting places of the soldiers and to participate in the exercises commemorative of the occasion. The war spirit has brought the sections of the country in closer bonds of brotherly union, and henceforth Memorial Day will have an added interest for the tributes paid the soldiers who fall in battle for their country in a foreign land. Never was there such a throng in the cemetery, and never were patriotic exercises attended with more solemn thought and moment. Shortly before 8 the Anaheim brass band, at the head of Malvern Hill post of Fullerton, and followed by the W. R. C. and the citizens of that town, appeared on Lemon street, at the corner of Center, discoursing patriotic airs. The route of march was along Center street to the cemetery. One of the features of the parade were the hundreds of school children from the city and West Anaheim and Katella schools, as well as those from Fullerton, Placentia and Orangethorpe, all carrying bouquets of flowers and flags. At the cemetery a crowd of several thousand people gathered at the temporarily erected platform under the large poplar trees. The platform was decorated with the national colors, a faded flag, that had been borne through the terrors of the conflict, being spread out upon the table at the front of the platform. Seated upon the platform with Commander Clever and Rev. Stone, was Chas. C. Chapman, the orator of the Day—Recruiting Officers in Town Taking Applications for Volunteers—Two Baseball Games and Their Scores—Death of John Selinger—Albert Bittner Meets With a Bad Accolent—Canning Company Rushing Work Actively, and a Third Assessment Levied to Pay for Machinery—To Start Operations by the 20th—Local Brevities and at Orange and Santa Ana delegations joined the merry makers. At Santa Ana two cars of the regular train were switched over to the track of the Newport railroad, where two carloads of its own equipment were rapidly filled with picnickers. Conductor Smith called "all aboard," and Engineer Magner opened the throttle and the train went screeching to the beach, a distance of 12 miles, where the excursion arrived in 20 minutes from Santa Ana. Arrived at the beach, the march to the pavilion was taken up by the Anaheim brass band, in their snowy white uniforms, leading the way and awakening the echoes with strains of sweetest music. The town was out en masse to welcome the picnickers, and William Schirm, the Superintendent of the wharf and beach, was all smiles at contemplation of the crowds of revelers. Two carloads of Foresters from the Peatlands had just pulled in, and the beach was lined with picnickers. At the pavilion, after the edifice had been filled with Foresters from far and near, W. R. Uber, Deputy Supreme Chief Ranger, was introduced by H. C. Head, and made an address upon the advantages of being a member of the order. Later the crowds strolled upon the beach and out upon the wharf, where the steamer Hueneme, laden with shingles, was discharging her cargo. The shipload consisted of 32 carloads of shingles, and the work of unloading was witnessed by a numerous throng. At noon lunch was served by the picnickers, to which The Foresters and their friends did ample justice. The afternoon was devoted to dancing, the brass band furnishing delightful music. At 3:30 o'clock the whistle sounded for the return trip, and promptly at 3:45 the train pulled out for home, to the strains of a patriotic air by the band. The run to Santa Ana was made without mishap. Here a large crowd was found in waiting at the depot, and the time was taken up until the arrival of the San Diego train in listening to music by the band and discussing the experiences of the day. The picnic cars were shortly attached to the San Diego train and the run home accomplished in short order. Arriving at the depot here, the band formed in marching order, and after bidding good-by to the Fullertonites the march to town was taken up, to the tune of "Marching to Cuba," and all hands dispersed, having spent a very happy time at the beach. WESTMINSTER. Decoration Day was generally observed. All the stores and places of business were closed during the day, and many of the citizens took floral decorations to the graves of their loved ones. ROBBERY AT NEWPORT Burglars Break Into the Postoffice Late Friday Night and Make a Big Haul. The postoffice at Newport Beach was robbed on Friday night, some time after midnight, and about $500 in money and $100 in stamps taken. Postmaster Atwood closed the office as usual shortly after 8 o'clock, and went to his residence adjoining the postoffice where visitors were entertained at cards until after 11 o'clock. Mr. Atwood retired, with the family, some time later, at which time everything about the premises was in order. On arising on Saturday morning at 9 o'clock, and going out to open the store which he conducts in connection with the postoffice, he beheld the front door standing open. Knowing that he had securely locked it the night before, he felt at once that burglars had been about during the night, and on going inside, the safe door was found swung open, and the handle bar wrenched out of its socket and lying upon the floor. An investigation of the premises showed that the thieves had effected an entrance by breaking a pane of glass in the rear window, when the catches were withdrawn and the window raised. Blood upon the broken pane of glass showed where the thumb presumably of the right hand had been cut by coming in contact with the glass when pulling out the spring fastening at the right side of the window, and blood on the inner pane at the left showed where she cut had again asserted itself as the burglar reached in to secure hold of the left fastening. Once inside the building, the safe was located, and the handle bar wrenched from its fastenings by means of burglar's apparatus, powder inserted in the aperture, and the door blown open. One ofthe fishermen atthe Beach had deposited$100withMr.Atwoodthe precedingday,and amongthefunds stolenwas$25ofthemoney collectedbythepatrioticpeopleofthebeachforthepurchaseofaflag-poleforthestarrybannerthatfaunaestsdefiancetothebreezesfromashortstaffonthebeach.Ofpostofficefundstherewasabout$44and$100instamps,andtherestofthemoney,thetotalbeingabout$500incoin,belongingtoMr.Atwood.

At the cemetery a crowd of several thousand people gathered at the temporarily erected platform under the large poplar trees. The platform was decorated with the national colors, a faded flag, that had been borne through the terrors of the conflict, being spread out upon the table at the front of the platform. Seated upon the platform with Commander Clever and Rev. Stone, was Chas. C. Chapman, the orator of the day, Comrade Freeman of Fullerton, the members of the double quartet and others. At one side and in front of the platform a stand of stacked arms, with bayonets crossed, stood a silent sentinel of the proceedings of the afternoon. On the platform Gus Bennersheldt's cannon, appropriately draped in the national colors, was also a conspicuous feature in the decorations. Commander Clever introduced Rev. Stone, who offered up an impressive prayer. This was followed by the decoration of the soldiers' graves by the school children, to the number of some 400. Bugler Whann sounded the assembly after the decoration of the graves, and the throng gathered about the platform, where the double quartet, composed of Misses Roberts, Fay and Mrs. Stone of this city, Miss James of Fullerton, and Messrs. Carpenter, Boyd, Miller and Sheldon sang "They'll Never Marsh Again" in good voice and with impressive effect. Miss Alice Robinson followed with a recitation, entitled "Wounded," and Worthington Means recited "Lincoln's Getttysburg Address." The male quartet, composed of Messrs. Carpenter, Boyd, Sheldon and Miller, sang "Brave Battery Boys," with a spirited ensemble, which called forth appreciative applause. Mr. Charles C. Chapman was introduced and delivered an eloquent oration, one of the best which we have listened to in a long time. We have pleasure in announcing that Mr. Chapman's oration will be found entire upon the second page this morning. The address was frequently punctuated with applause, the many eloquent outbursts meeting with enthusiastic applause among the auditors. The male quartet sang "America," in which the audience joined. Benediction was offered by Mr. Holcomb, the bugler sounded taps and the decoration of the graves of the unknown dead brought the exercises to a close. MEMORIAL DAY IN LOS ALAMITOS. Memorial services were held in the Union church on Sunday. The Rev. Mr. Hill preached on the occasion, his text being the 30th chapter of Romans—"Let every soul be subject to the higher powers. The powers that be are ordained of God." In treating his subject, Mr. Hill dwelt on the long-suffering patience with which America tolerated Spain's treatment of the Cubans, and justified our armed interference. Among the points emphasized in the sermon was the great superiority of the Republican form of government over the Old World monarchies. The sermon was listened to with marked attention, and evinced not only considerable depth of thought, but a close acquaintance with modern and ancient history. At the close of the service an elaborate basket picnic was furnished by the ladies of the congregation, and about forty guests, including the veterans The picnic cars were shortly attached to the San Diego train and the run home accomplished in short order. Arriving at the depot here, the band formed in marching order, and after blinding good-by to the Fullertonites the march to town was taken up, to the tune of "Marching to Cuba," and all hands dispersed, having spent a very happy time at the beach. WESTMINSTER. Decoration Day was generally observed. All the stores and places of business were closed during the day, and many of the citizens took floral decorations to the graves of their loved ones. David Rogers' new addition to his residence is almost ready for occupation. The finishing touch is being delayed on account of Mr. Johnson having a severe attack of rheumatism and had to call his father from Los Amegles to finish the work. Uncle David has been duly notified to keep his big watch dog chained, as his numerous friends are preparing to call one evening before the carpets are laid. L. L. Collins of Santa Ana was in our little burg during the week, working up an interest in the Pennsylvania Mutual Life Insurance business. Charles Turner took a few days' vacation past week, from his farm in the Peat Land and visited friends in Fullerton and Buena Park. S. P. Bates has been quite miserable the past few days suffering from a severe cold and bilious attack. Will James was very happily surprised on the evening of the 28th ult. On reaching his home he found a number of relatives and friends who had assembled to celebrate the eighth wedding anniversary of W. James and Laura Davis, both parties well known in Anaheim and Norwalk. Ice cream and cake was served and all had a most joyful time. Celery plants are growing very rapidly and will soon be ready for transplanting. Miss Mamie McCoy returned from Berkeley, where she has been attending the University for the past term. Sampson Edwards has been improving his lots by planting shade trees. He used wisdom and taste in planting the weeping willow, and will plant more ornamental trees this fall.

The Directors of the Orange County Preserving Company held a meeting on Tuesday afternoon, when a third assessment of $3 per share was levied, payable immediately, as will be noted by the official order published funds stolen was $25 of the money collected by the patriotic people of the beach for the purchase of a flag-pole for the starry banner that flaunts defiance to the breezes from a short staff on the beach. Of postoffice funds there was about $44 and $100 in stamps, and the rest of the money, the total being about $500 in coin, belonging to Mr. Atwood. Had the burglary been delayed a few days the burglars' haul would probably have been much larger, as many men employed on the wharf would have been paid off on the 1st, and they generally deposit with Mr. Atwood temporarily. Sheriff Nichols was notified by telephone, and went down on the train bearing The Foresters on their picnic Saturday morning. The Sheriff is keen on the scent of the robbers, who are doubtless members of a gang who have broken open probably fifty safes in small Southern California towns in similar fashion in the past half a year. The gang is known as postoffice thieves, who go after stamps, and take what funds may be found in the safe. Their haul at Newport was the largest reported in some time. MODESKA! The great Modjeska's niece, who has lately come from Poland, is to sing at the concert to be given June 3, at the Santa Ana Grand Opera-house, at 8 o'clock.

Modjeska will occupy one of the boxes in full dress, and may also assist if her health permits. The program is one to interest all music-loving people.

James Willis Rice, the talented violinist, Mrs. James S.Rice, the universal favorite, Grace Henderson Mathewson, a pupil of Edouard Marzo (a musician of the Neapolitan Court, Knight of the Order of the Crown of Italy), who has a sympathetic dramatic voice, and Mrs. James Scarborough of Los Angeles, who has lately returned from a most successful concert tour in San Francisco, are amongthe artists onthe program. The concert is to be an unusual musical event. Tickets can be bought at Mit Phillips & Smith's drugstore, Santa Ana. Reserved seats, 50 cents; general admission, 35 cents. GARDEN GROVE.

Among the points emphasized in the sermon was the great superiority of the Republican form of government over the Old World monarchies. The sermon was listened to with marked attention, and evinced not only considerable depth of thought, but a close acquaintance with modern and ancient history. At the close of the service an elaborate basket picnic was furnished by the ladies of the congregation, and about forty guests, including the veterans present, sat down to cold chicken, recherche salads and delicious cakes. At the close of the feast J. M. Gilbert proposed a vote of thanks to the ladies for the sumptuous repast, which was seconded by Dr. Thompson of Clair. The latter dwelt on the advantages that would accrue to Christianity in general if picnics such as they had just risen from were given a permanent place in the congregational meetings, and were repeated once a fortnight, or even once a month. They would tend, said the speaker, to enlarge our sympathies and develop greater harmony among the people. The question as to the requisite funds to furnish the periodical picnic could, in the opinion of the speaker, be easily solved by clipping $200 or so a year from the preacher's salary. FORESTERS' PICNIC. The Hosts Gather From Far and Near and Spend the Day at Newport Beach. Six carloads of Foresters picnicked at Newport Beach on Saturday and succeeded in spending a very pleasant day at the seaside. The Foresters gathered at Fullerton from Placentia and Orange-thorpe, and the Anaheim brass band was driven over to take the train at that point with the Fullerton contingent. Arriving at this point the excursion was joined by a numerous throng, The Klondyke baking powder is Schilling's Best baking powder.

It is aimed to start up operations about the 20th of June, when the apricot crop will probably be ripe. The board is desirous of making contracts for first-class tomatoes, and those desirous of raising these succulent vegetables may acquire valuable information by consulting with either Mr. Dickel or Mr. Stern. C. G. McKinley was elected general manager of the cannery, and will shortly assume the duties of secretary, the affairs of the office having become so voluminous as to require the constant attention of an expert accountant and bookkeeper. The assessments are payable as usual to the secretary at this office. Certificates of stock will be issued to subscribers as soon as the stock books can be completed. Work is now being pushed actively on them, and the certificates will be ready to deliver some time next week. —Capt. Finley writes as follows from San Francisco, under date of May 28th, acknowledging the thanks of his company for the articles sent by the ladies of Anaheim: "The boxes of delicacies were received, and contents distributed this morning, and to say that the boys appreciated them is but faintly expressing their feelings. It made them all feel like they were at home. May God bless you all at home. "S. H. Finley, "Capt. Co. L., 7th Reg., Cal., U.S. Vol." Much of credit for gathering and shipping the delicacies to the soldier boys is due Mrs. Erdman, who did the greater part of the work of collecting and forwarding the same. Total 241 $24.82 The amount will be forwarded to be added to the fund for the construction of the battleship. VERY AT NEWPORT. Break Into the Postoffice Late Friday Night and Make a Big Haul.

In Justice Landell's court on Friday last a civil action was tried in which G.W. Ramsey was the plaintiff and A.Harris the defendant, the case being taken on a change of venue from Westminster township. The matter involved was an alleged non-delivery of hay on the part of defendant. Judge Langley appeared for plaintiff and Judge McKelvey for the defendant. By a multiplicity of evidence the case became somewhat complicated and was taken under advisement.

While Albert Bittner was driving with a load of hay along Center street, near Citron, in company of Fritz Raath, Monday morning shortly before noon, the hay became dislodged, and the entire load fell to the ground, both occupants of the wagon going down with it. Bittner held the reins, and retained control until he struck the ground, when he sustained a compound comminuted fracture of the right leg above the ankle. The horses ran down Center street toward town, and a short distance further on the hay rack was tossed off the wagon in the confusion. Opposite the Christian church the runaway horses collided with a picket fence, demolishing the latter and wrecking the wagon. Here they were caught and extricated from their entanglement. Raath came running up, saying that Bittner was lying down the street with his leg broke. A crowd of those who had gathered went at once to his assistance, and he was carried into his home, within 100 yards of the scene of the accident. Drs. Wilson and Eddy were early at the side of the unfortunate man. The fractured limb was reset, and since the patient has been getting along as well as could be expected. For Sale or Trade. A fine Jersey cow, that will come in fresh about the middle of this month. Will sell her for a reasonable price or trade her for hay. Apply to R. FOSSEK. Mr. Rea reports the country traveled over to be dry, with prospects poor for stock and crops. He doubts if the two sugar factories in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties will start up operations this summer, the beet crop being exceedingly poor. The future he paints of the country traveled over is not a pleasant one to contemplate. The first verdure struck on the return trip was this side of Los Angeles, and not until he reached this valley, with its countless irrigating ditches running full of water, did green fields and pastures greet the eye. Mr. Wilkie went to San Luis to look over a stock ranch, with a view to purchasing, but returns satisfied to remain in Orange county. The San Francisco Examiner of Sunday has a moderately well executed likeness of Lieutenant Halpin of Co.K. Seventh regiment, along with the several other military celebrities. The Examiner adds this bit of comment: "With the Gallant Seventh is a volunteer who saw seventeen years service in the army of Great Britain. His name is Arthur Halpin, and he is First Lieutenant of Company K. Lieut.Halpin came to Los Angeles about ten years ago, and soon after became an American citizen. He was instructor in military training in the Los Angeles military school, and was one of the first men to respond to the President's call for volunteers." Halpin enlisted as a private, was soon promoted to be a corporal, and on the muster of troops at the Presidio was promoted to the Lieutenancy of Co.K. He was some years ago the captain of Co.G of this city, and was later Major of the Seventh regiment. He is a born soldier, and that he will give a good account of himself in the Philippines, his friends have not the least doubt. L. GILDMACHER, SANTA ANA. SYRUP. MAPLE. Crystal Drips. Sweet Fern.
