OLD BOARD OUT; NEW BOARD IN. Bid for Cementing Ditches at 38 Cents per Foot. How it Came that the Storm Water Flowing Under the Fill at Flume 12 has Been so Largely Increased in Volume—Storm Water of Soquel Canyon Turned Into that Channel by the Plowing in of the Crevasse Through Which the Water Formerly Run—The Underehute at the Fill not Large Enough to Accommodate the Increased Volume of Water, and the Destruction of the Fill Threatened During Heavy Rains—A Letter From the District Attorney, and What Developed During the Ensuing Discussion – New Officers. The Directors of the water company met in regular session on Saturday afternoon, it being the last meeting of the old board. There were present Messrs. Fay, Pierotti, McFadden, Rea and Nebelung. Secretary Blennerhassett read the minutes of the last regular meeting, which were approved as read. Mr. Pierotti of the Ditch Committee submitted the following: The Ditch Committee reports that the residents living along the half section line south of Northam avenue, namely Ross, Smith, Hetebrink and Amerige, are willing to haul gravel and cement for the cementing of the ditch in front of their respective places. Therefore we recommend that the ditch be cemented as soon as the road is graded and the necessary material is on the ground. Length of ditch, seven-eighths of a mile; size of ditch, 12 inches; sides, 18 inches. Mr. Pierotti stated that the county was about to plow up the road running along the ditch, for the purpose of regrading it, and that the earthen ditch as at present situated would be destroyed. A cement ditch along the road had been some time ago agreed upon, and he brought the matter up at this time as an opportune moment on account of the projected grading operations. After further discussion, it was moved by Mr. McFadden, and seconded by Mr. Rea, and carried, that the recommendation of the Ditch committee be adopted. Hale of Placentia had plowed up the crevasse so that the waters that come down Soquel canyon and sweep down Placentia avenue might be turned into a channel where there would not be so much danger of the destruction of property. The chair: "It did not make any difference to them about the destruction of the company's property, just so property along Placentia avenue was protected; was that the idea?" Mr. Pierotti replied that if the water came down Placentia avenue again as it did some winters ago, much of the cement ditch along that thoroughfare would be destroyed. The flood would wash across McFadden's orchard, through Carpenter's and the Crowther orchard, doing much damage to the company's ditches, as well as to private property. The chair maintained that the plowing in of the crevasse had been unwarranted; that the accumulated waters placed the company's property in peril of being washed out, and that the interests of the company in the fill had been placed in jeopardy. The board voted the chair authority to reply to the District Attorney in the matter of replacing of the bridge over the crevasse. If the letter be indited in the same frame of mind characterizing the former official during the discussion, the latter official has probably by this time received a very interesting letter. The board went into a short executive session on finances, and later adjourned sine die. The new board was called to order immediately upon the adjournment of the old board. There were present Messrs. Fay, Rea, Chapman, Pierotti, Nebelung and Crowther. Mr. Benchey, the only absent member, is laid up at his home in Fullerton with a sprained ankle. Mr. Rea was, on motion of Mr. Crowther, made temporary chairman of the meeting, and Mr. Nebelung was chosen temporary secretary. Mr. Chapman nominated Mr. Fay for President of the board; seconded by Mr. Crowther and carried unanimously. Mr. Fay nominated Mr. Benchey for Vice President; seconded by Mr. Chapman. Mr. Pierotti—I nominate Mr. Chapman. A short discussion followed, Mr. Fay withdrew Mr. Benchey's name, and Mr. Chapman was elected unanimously. Mr. Chapman—I appreciate that, gentlemen. W. H. Blennnerhassett was, on motion of Mr. Fay, seconded by Mr. Nebelung, elected Secretary of the company. H. Cahen was on motion of Mr. Fay, seconded by Mr. Crowther, elected Treasurer. Hleinigkeiten.

Yesterday she weared was warmer. Mr. Pierotti stated that the county was about to plow up the road running along the ditch, for the purpose of regrading it, and that the earthen ditch as at present situated would be destroyed. A cement ditch along the road had been some time ago agreed upon, and he brought the matter up at this time as an opportune moment on account of the projected grading operations. After further discussion, it was moved by Mr. McFadden, and seconded by Mr. Rea, and carried, that the recommendation of the Ditch committee be adopted. Mr. Fay read the following report relative to the plan for saving water in the river's channel between the division-gate and the headgate: Directors of the Anaheim Union Water Company — Gentlemen: Your special committee, to whom was referred the matter of canvasing bottom of ditch, between the division and head gates, beg leave to report: That they find the length of ditch requiring treatment to be about five hundred yards. Canvas to cover this would be eight yards wide of 11-ounce duck. Each lineal yard would therefore weigh 5.5 pounds, and a 50-foot section 275 pounds. The cost on the ground would approximate $150 per linear yard, including one coat of oil. The whole line would therefore cost for material $750. To this must be added the cost of putting it in place, estimated at $100. The estimated loss of water is from 150 to 200 inches. If 100 inches could be saved, and delivered at July and August rates, the revenue—$1042—for these two months, will more than pay for the work, and the canvas is expected to last for two years. We being of the opinion that the benefits to the community arising from the additional water would justify the expenditure, recommend that the experiment be made. W.J.FAY, A.PIEROTTI. Supt. Sheppard reported as follows: Construction account during January, $206 65, exclusive of cement; regular employees, $350; expense account, $1,-201 50. He reported that he had cleaned the Anaheim ditch from East street to the Yorba flume and the Cajon ditch from the head of the ditch to Flume 4. Mr. Sheppard said later that the rains of some three weeks ago, which necessitated the cleaning of ditches, were the worst in the hills ever saw. C.S.Miles wrote from Los Angeles asking for the placing of a division gate at the contemplated cement ditch on Northam avenue leading to his place. To the Superintendent. District Attorney Williams wrote the board, under date of Santa Ana, Jan. 24th, as follows: "Complaint has been made by residents of Fullerton and vicinity about a certain bridge near the Olinda ranch, not being replaced. Said bridge being, I believe, in Section 20, and on public highway. Please call attention of your Superintendent to the matter, and oblige," etc. The letter called forth some energetic references to the District Attorney's office, as well as the parties lodging complaint about the bridge. The chair observed that when he first read the letter he felt very much like notifying the District Attorney forthwith that the company had nothing to do with the bridge, that it spanned no company ditch, that the road upon which it was built was not a county road, and adding that if that official desired the bridge replaced he might seek other means of attaining that end. Mr. Chapman nominated Mr. Fay for President of the board; seconded by Mr.Crowther and carried unanimously. Mr. Fay nominated Mr. Benchley for Vice President; seconded by Mr. Chapman. Mr. Pierotti—I nominate Mr. Chapman. A short discussion followed, Mr. Fay withdrew Mr. Benchley's name, and Mr. Chapman was elected unanimously. Mr. Chapman—I appreciate that gentlemen. W.H.Blennerhassett was, on motion of Mr. Fay, seconded by Mr.Nebelung, elected Secretary of the company. H.Cahen was on motion of Mr. Fay, seconded by Mr.Crowther, elected Treasurer. The new board organized immediately, and the chair announced they were ready for business. The table, he said, had been cleared of all business, except such as had been laid over for consideration by the new board. The chair named the following committees: Ditch—Crowther, Rea and Pierotti. Finance—Benchley, Nebelung and Chapman. Law—Chapman, Benchley and Rea. The first business taken up by the new board was the opening of one bid, submitted by Clarence Groat, for the cementing of a half mile of ditch on Northam avenue, and a stretch of 300 feet of ditch on Frank Porter's north line. Mr.Crowther—Mr.President, where is Northam avenue? I have lived in this country 25 years, and I confess I don't know where it is. I don't know that I ever heard of it! The chair informed the gentleman where Northam avenue was located, in the Fullerton district, it being the avenue running north of the schoolhouse, and the consideration of the bid was proceeded with. The chair added facetiously that he didn't know whether Groat had bought off all other bidders or no. On opening the bid it was found that his offer was made at the rate of 38 cents per linear foot, for both ditches, and 30 cents per cubic foot for extra work. Mr.Groat stated in answer to a question that the bid covered all expenses for the construction and completion of the ditch. Inasmuch as the property owners along the avenue had signified their willingness to haul the gravel and cement and do the backfilling for the ditch, Groat was given permission to amend his bid in conformity therewith. The matter was thereupon referred to the Ditch Committee with authority to act. Supervisor Potter appeared before the board and submitted a map drawn by County Surveyor Finley showing the county road running through the La Habra reservoir site, and the proposed change of the route. The board discussed the matter of the proposed change with Mr.Potter; also she culvert over the crevasse referred to by the District Attorney, and other matters, and later adjourned. Card of Thanks.

Mr. Pierotti thought the chair would have been perfectly justified in inditling a letter to the District Attorney smashing that official in the approved solar-plexus fashion, so to speak. It developed during the ensuing discussion that the bridge had been situated along a road on the Olinda ranch above the fill that replaces Flume 12. It had been put in by the water company in 1892, over a crevasse, but had long since passed into disuse by the company. Recently it had been removed by private parties, to him unknown, who by plowing up the crevasse sought to turn the flood water into the barranca running under the new fill at the site of the old flume. The chair took exception to the plowing up of the crevasse and the turning of the water into the barranca, as the cement fill put in by Engineer Rogers some two years ago had been provided with an underchute only sufficient in size to permit of the flow of the usual amount of water running down the barranca. Recently the plowing in of the crevasse had thrown the flood waters from Soquel canyon into the barranca under the fill, and the recent rains had so swollen the volume of storm water that the cement fill had been in imminent peril of being washed out. The aperture in the fill is .24x3 feet in size, whereas the opinion has been universally expressed since the rains of the middle of January that the aperture should have been made larger, some declaring it should have been 20 feet in length, 3 feet high at the sides, and arching to a height of 6 feet in the center. Had the ground been in other than an extremely dry condition, consequent on the previous lack of rainfall, it is held that the waters rushing down the barranca would certainly have carried out the fill, which cost in the neighborhood of $4000. Engineer Rogers, it might be added, has been quite severely criticised for what has been termed his lack of judgment in making the underchute of such small dimensions.

Speaking of what a newspaper does community, the late United Senator David Davis of Illinois an address that will remain ever in the memories of newspaper Said he: "Each year every local gives from $500 to $5000 in free for the benefit of the community which it is located. No other agency will do this. The editor, in proportion to his means, does more for him than any other man, and with all less, man with man, he ought to be sorted, not because you may hape Diego. Monday night they were at Santa Ana, and are now appearing in Central California towns, going north. Atwood Sproul, the young sprig of gentility from Norwalk paid his fine of $10 in Judge Shanley's court on Thursday, being accompanied into town by his stern mamma, who saw to it that the scenes characterizing his preceding visit in town, when he was arrested for disturbing the peace, were not repeated. It transpires that Sproul's misbehavior was of a more fragrant character that at first appeared upon the surface. He was under the influence of liquor, and to a passerby proposed that his wife should sing for him for $2, and later proposed an indignity of the woman for a small additional sum. When both officers were rejected, Sproul declared his intention of fighting. He was arrested and placed in jail and next morning appeared in court in a truly penitent mood, declaring he could not remember a title of the occurrences of the evening before. His weeping wife sat by his side, and this alone probably saved him from a larger fine. August Spingath and Otto Dargatz, two members of the Russian settlement, living five miles west of town, who have resided in this vicinity for some four years, have disappeared, and various reports are afloat concerning them. The consensus of opinion appears to be that they have skipped the country, leaving several hundred of dollars of bills unpaid behind them. Their flight is said to have been taken on Wednesday of last week, when they purchased tickets at Buena Park for the East, one going to Wisconsin and the other to Canada. Last week Spingath disposed of a ten-acre tract of land in Section 12, lying east of town, to Peter Berg, brother of the Russian minister, for the sum of $400. Among the debts left behind them is one for wagons and farming implements, but these have been located and will probably be recovered. The merchants in town were creditors to them in quite a large amount, their total indebtedness aggregating something like $900. An attempt may be made to arrest them and bring them back and punish them for their crime. On Thursday last Dargatz sold his ten-acre tract in Section 13, in the Centralia district, to Albert Dargatz, the stated consideration being $10. S. Norton and wife of New York are here on a visit to Mr. and Mrs. M. L. Rogers, Mrs. Norton being a niece of Mrs. Rogers. Miss Norton who visited here last year is a daughter of the worthy couple. This is their first visit to California and they are delighted at the glorious climate of the country. Dr. M. S. Jones of Santa Ana has a 200-tree grape fruit grove on his ranch at Tustin which he has come to the conclusion is a source of expense instead of an investment of profit. The crop from the grove last year was 100 boxes, and the Doctor, after corresponding with a number of commission and fruit-buying firms, was able to find a market for only two boxes, the crop bringing him $8. This year he has a crop of 400 boxes and cannot find a market for the fruit. The doctor exhibited a branch from a tree in the orchard at Santa Ana the other day on which the fruit hung in a cluster, eight large specimens being supported by a limb less than a foot in length. He intends to bud the trees to oranges. Remember the "Bain!" No wagon equals it in quality and price.

Shaw, editor of the Santa Ana Herald, is in Sacramento, where he has secured a position as assistant engrossing and enrolling clerk of the Senate a salary of $5 per day.

Longyear was in town from Los Angeles on Friday, putting in the ice axe and fixtures for Ed Morgan's rotiserie in the Commercial Hotel.
