LOCAL NEWSOF INTEREST A Cement Ditch for East Anaheim. Irrigators on the East Side to be Provided With Better Irrigating Facilities—Deputy Sheriff Bush in Town to Serve Condemnation Papers on A. Schneider for Right-of-Way for the new Southern Pacific Line—J. G. Shoemaker of Olive Talks About Bees — Otto Strothoff Comes in from Arizona on a Short Pasear—Ed Kraemer Talks of the Railroad Situation at Placentia — T. L. Duque on Finances—Band Coffert. The water board met in regular session on Saturday afternoon; present Directors Fay, Pierotti, Chapman, Crowther and Nebelung. Mr. Crowther of the Ditch Committee reported progress in the matter of the construction of the ditch east of town, petitioned for by Scott, Sheldon and others, adding that instead of being 800 feet, as stated by petitioners, the ditch would have to be 1300 feet. He found upon investigation that the irrigators in the neighborhood of the proposed ditch had grounds for complaint: the present earthen ditch running three-quarters of a mile through a cactus patch. He advocated the laying of a pipe across Center street, for the ditch. Mr. Fay stated that Mr. Rea and himself had examined the ditch, and they were of the opinion that a cement ditch was necessary. In their opinion it was absolutely necessary that something be done for the relief of the irrigators. The proposed ditch will run a mile and a half east of town. Mr. Crowther moved to proceed at once with the cementing of the ditch, 1300 feet in length, to be of a capacity of not less than 250 inches, to run from the main ditch southerly through lands of petitioners. Seconded by Mr. Pierotti, and carried. The chair reported that he had in company of Mr. Rea (who was not present at the meeting, being absent in San Diego) examined the East street ditch, which has been found to be inadequate to carry the water mapped out for it originally. Mr. Rea had the written report of the inspection. The ditch has a cross section of 5 feet, whereas to be of the capacity originally intended, it should have a railroad situation. Steel Rails Arrive—Chief Engineer Hood In Town on Sunday—He Drives Over the New Route. Nine carloads of steel rails arrived at the Southern Pacific depot by the early freight on Saturday morning last. On Monday morning another carload of rails arrived, and more are looked for daily. On Friday a carload of lumber rolled in, to be used in the construction of culverte, and cattle guards on the new line. On Sunday morning's passenger Wm. Hood, Chief Engineer of the Southern Pacific, arrived, in company of G. W. Boschke, assistant engineer. A carriage awaited them at the depot, and together with Mr. Pattison they drove over the route of the proposed line, up Santa Ana street, and out Olive, past the semaphore and on to the river. Mr. Hood and his party returned shortly after noon, and lunched at Kistler's. A reporter for the Gazette found him about 2 o'clock in the barber-shop, a messenger having been sent for Prof. Hussmann to come down town and re-open his tonsorial establishment long enough to shave the party. Mr. Hood had been in Anaheim before, and greeted the reporter with his accustomed urbanity. "What brings you down to our town at this time?" he was asked. "I came down to see Mr. Pattison," he replied, diplomatically. "You have driven over the new line?" "Yes sir; I have been out driving over the proposed new road with Mr. Boschke and Mr. Pattison, and have just returned." "When do you expect the grading outfit here?" "Immediately upon securing the right of way." Mr. Hood stated there were several parties with whom the company had not settled with, and until such settlements had been made there would be no grading or track laying. The company did not care to commence condemnation proceedings until all other means looking to securing the right of way had failed. "What do you think of the building of the road to Placentia?" "I think it would be a very nice thing for your city," replied the chief, with a merry twinkle in his eye, as he extended his cigar case to the newspaper man. It is known, however, that Placentia is the railroad's objective point—or one of them; the road will continue through Kleinigkeiten. Don't forget the band concern the Opera-house this evening. Beet thinners are in demand in Los Alamitos beet fields. H. W. Chynoweth made a bus trip to Los Angeles on Tuesday. Herman Dickel has put up a coat of neat signs at his grocery establishment. Potatoes are on the up grade, farmers with spuds to sell ought have comfortable bank accounts. The Anaheim club will give first musicale on Saturday evening: All members are requested to present. A new billiard table has been stalled in the Anaheim club, and bers may now while away an hour juring with the ivories. Invitations are out for a ball, to be given by the U. T. dance club at Fullerton on Friday evenings at 14th. Charles Federman advertises importation of his spring stock. Ladies should call and examine stock before going out of town to chase. Keep the money at home. The rose bush that has climbed on the roof of the two-story W Hotel is putting forth a profusion lovely roses. The bush is one of largest in Southern California, and soon be covered with thousands of fragrant flowers. James L. Caskey and Miss Clark Wright, young people well and fairly known in Santa Ana, were fried last week at the home of bride's parents in that city. Mr. Caskey and his bride will make their home Whittier, he being employed as a trician at the State school. E. W. McCollum made a short to Los Angeles yesterday. Mac must regular trips to Santa Ana every day. He is getting ready to put neat residence on Philadelphia street and we have another interesting place in reserve for him, which we print by and by. W. T. Clark, who owns two acres of peat land south of Westminster is said to have rented it for $600 per season. This is $30 per acre, and perhaps the highest rent ever paid farm land. The men who rented place will plant it at once to potato and then will probably raise a crop celery later in the season on Mr. Crowther moved to proceed at once with the cementing of the ditch, 1300 feet in length, to be of a capacity of not less than 250 inches, to run from the main ditch southerly through lands of petitioners. Seconded by Mr. Pierotti, and carried. The chair reported that he had in company of Mr. Rea (who was not present at the meeting, being absent in San Diego) examined the East street ditch, which has been found to be inadequate to carry the water mapped out for it originally. Mr. Rea had the written report of the inspection. The ditch has a cross section of 5 feet, whereas to be of the capacity originally intended, it should have a cross section of 8.18 feet. It would cost $296 40 for the cement to raise its sides to give it the capacity originally intended. He had consulted with Mr. Pierotti and they had come to the conclusion that inasmuch as the period of scarce water was coming on, there was no urgent necessity for any immediate increase of the capacity of the ditch. Mr. Nebelung observed that several tons of sand had been deposited upon his place in North Anaheim from water running in the ditch supplying his place. He would not like to have the same repeated, and stated that in such an event he would hold the company liable for damages. The chair made a brief report of his attendance upon the meeting called by the Southern California Academy of Sciences, which assembled at the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce a fortnight ago. He stated at that meeting that the company were ready to cooperate in forest preservation and water development, which were the objects for which the meeting was called. Supt Sheppard reported the expense account during March to be $615 75, of which $355 was for regular employees; construction amount, $483 26, exclusive of cement. Mr. Chapman said the Santa Fe railroad had suggested the desirability of cementing the ditch east of Fullerton, the same being a continuation of the Carpenter ditch; and had asked on what terms the company would agree to cement it. Mr. Chapman said the railroad would probably consent to the payment of $150 on some such matter. After discussion by the board, that gentleman was delegated further authority to confer with the railroad company. C.W. Leffingwell wrote asking permission to connect his tank with the ditch running by his place, by means of a pipe, for the purpose of filling the tank with water for stock and domestic purposes. On motion of Mr. Chapman, seconded by Mr. Pierotti, the application was granted, on the usual terms. W.W. Adams submitted a demand for $26 for labor on the ditch running through Mr. Weisel's place and other property at West Anaheim. The chair explained the nature of the work, and the bill was ordered paid. Secretary Blennerhasset read a communication from City Clerk Nebelung directing the board's attention to the bad condition of the bridge across Cypress street near the schoolhouse. To the Superintendent. Mr. Nebelung observed that the whole length of the ditch at this point should be cemented or piped. Danny Mauerhan appeared before the board with reference to the ditch supplying his father's place with water, the sides of which ditch he desires to have raised nine inches for a distance of 300 feet. The chair gave testimony upon the subject, and after discussion the board agreed that the company furnish not to the company furnish three barrels of cement for the right of way." Mr. Hood stated there were several parties with whom the company had not settled with, and until such settlements had been made there would be no grading or track laying. The company did not care to commence condemnation proceedings until all other means looking to securing the right of way had failed. "What do you think of the building of the road to Placentia?" "I think it would be a very nice thing for your city," replied the chief, with a merry twinkle in his eye, as he extended his cigar case to the newspaper man. It is known, however, that Placentia is the railroad's objective point—or one of them; the road will continue through the Olinda ranch, where the railroad company is interested in oil development, and on to the main line at Chino. Mr. Hood is a man of large physique and acute mental development. He speaks entertainingly upon any subject, and is acknowledged among railroad men to be at the head of his profession in the United States. His visit here at this time is not thought to be so much to look over right of way matters, as to investigate the field for erection of extensive railway shops at this point. He would not talk upon this subject, however, when he was shown copy of our last week's paper containing an extended reference to this subject. After spending an hour or two in town pleasantly, the party, consisting of Messrs. Hood, Boschke and Pattison, were driven to the Southern Pacific depot, to take the afternoon train for the north. Mr. Pattison goes to San Francisco. He will return in four or five days, and may be looked for by the end of this week. The railroad surveyors who are yet in town have given out information that they will remain here for some time, and that extensive railway building will be inaugurated from this point in near future. Anaheim, it is pointed out, will be next to Los Angeles, the largest railway center in Southern California. The Southern Pacific will diverge from this point in five different directions, viz., to Los Angeles, Los Alamitos, Santa Ana, Tustin and Placentia Spurs will also run from Benedict to the Peat Lands, and probably from Placentia through the La Habra valley to Whittier. This will make Anaheim the railway radiating point for the richest section of country in the State, and inasmuch as oil can be had here as cheap, if not cheaper, than in Los Angeles, it is held that the railway movements now progressing hereabout have more in store for the city than appears upon the surface. That an extensive roundhouse will be constructed in near future is considered more than likely. On Tuesday a force of employees began unloading and checking off the steel rails, and yesterday it was given out that ground would be broken for the new line not later than next week. Right of way has been secured as far as practicable, and in some quarters the opinion prevails that condemnation proceedings will begin against those with whom the company has failed to effect a settlement. The Grant Bros. grading outfit is in Los Angeles on waiting orders, and are ready to start for this city at any time. Agent Darling has had forwarded to him for his inspection the plans and specifications for the passenger depot, which shows that the structure will be like the depot at Santa Ana. The building will be a commodious and well-built structure, and nearby will be constructed a large freight depot and warehouses. A report prevailed in town on Tuesday immediately upon securing the right of way." Mr. Hood stated there were several parties with whom the company had not settled with, and until such settlements had been made there would be no grading or track laying. The company did not care to commence condemnation proceedings until all other means looking to securing the right of way had failed. "What do you think of the building of the road to Placentia?" "I think it would be a very nice thing for your city," replied the chief, with a merry twinkle in his eye, as he extended his cigar case to the newspaper man.

Danny Mauerhan appeared before the board with reference to the ditch supplying his father's place with water, the sides of which ditch he desires to have raised nine inches for a distance of 300 feet. The chair gave testimony upon the subject, and after discussion the board agreed that the company furnish not to exceed three barrels of cement for the work, and lend the company's tools, the work to be performed by Mauerhan at no expense to the company. Mr. Newbauer, a stately looking old gentleman, with an abundance of white whiskers adorning his face, appeared before the board making a complaint relative to the delivery of water to him at his place in West Anaheim. The board made a note of his statements, and will interview the zanjero for further details. The board here went into executive session. Natural Gas at Santa Fe Springs. An eight-inch oil well was struck on the Marius Maerze place at Santa Fe Springs on Friday at a depth of 310 feet. Charley Bell, the internal revenue gauger, who was in town on Tuesday, states that the gas shot up through the rocks and sandstone to an altitude of 300 feet. On Sunday morning the owners of the well set fire to the gas, and it formed a flame sixty feet high. The flame was later extinguished, and in a short time thereafter the pressure suddenly ceased. It is supposed rocks were forced into the pipe, thus interfering with the pressure. There are 275 feet of water in the well. The roar of the gas making its way through the underground strata can be heard for a distance of 1000 feet. Oil experts have come to look at the well and get options upon adjacent property. Casca Ferrine Bitters acts while you wait, and don't keep you waiting long either. The newest silks for waists and skirts can be found at Harris' dry goods store, Santa Ana. Taken up Estray. Taken up at Yorba, one black mare about 4 years old, no brand. Owner can call for same and pay charges. MANUEL REYES, Yorba. The Grant Bros. grading outfit is in Los Angeles on waiting orders, and are ready to start for this city at any time. Agent Darling has had forwarded to him for his inspection the plans and specifications for the passenger depot, which shows that the structure will be like the depot at Santa Ana. The building will be a commodious and well-built structure, and nearby will be constructed a large freight depot and warehouses. A report prevailed in town on Tuesday evening and yesterday that the graders would arrive and break ground this week, but inquiry of Agent Darling by telephone yesterday morning brought word that there was nothing in the rumors. Mr. Darling telephoned that he did not look for anything to occur in the grading line until after the arrival of Mr. Pattison from San Francisco, which will probably be the latter part of the week. He thought that condemnation proceedings would begin against those with whom a settlement had not been made, and that thereupon construction would begin. Deputy Sheriff Bush came over from Santa Ana yesterday to serve papers upon A. Schneider for the condemnation of a right of way for the Southern Pacific railroad in front of his property on Olive street. Mr. Bush stated that other condemnation papers would be probably served soon. Adjutant-General Peeler has issued orders for the reorganization of the National Guard in accordance with the bill introduced by Assemblyman Chynoweth of this city, and passed by the last Legislature. In accordance with the provisions of the act and the adjutant-general's orders, all officers and members of the National Guard who enlisted in the volunteer service are to be considered as having been granted leaves of absence from the date of their mustering in until they are mustered out. Officers and enlisted men belonging to the National Guard at the outbreak of the war who did not enter the service and whose terms have not yet expired shall report for duty with their respective organizations and will be permitted to serve out their terms of service.

Both were taken with grip, which later developed a attack of fever. Anaheim Land practically depopulated during winter months, and there were neighbors to minister to the wailers sufferers. For days they their ills in solitude, and finally vitality was reduced to so low that one could not wait upon them.

Finding them in sore need, he immediately sent for medical aid, provided them with sustenance, and looked to the wants of the horse, which had subsisted on post hay for several days.

A passer-by had some time before, on going to her place of residence, discovered that she was absent from the house, while all the doors were open. He shortly espied her lying in the barley field some distance from the residence, and on approaching her, saw that she was apparently ill.

The past week has been favorable to farming, and it is now believed that unusually large yield of grain may will be harvested. So far as noted, no damage to grain resulted in high waters in upper valleys; prospects are improving; in some towns the buds are said to be sufficiently advanced to withstand later; other sections report serious age to apricots and almonds by March. Other deciduous fruits are good condition, and a large yield predicted. Light rain has fallen in great valleys and in portions of northern California. Interest county.-Favorable weather crops, which are in excellent condition. Luis Obispo county.-Weather stable and crops growing rapidly, sown grain and pasture in extent condition. No damage by light snow. Barbara county.-Favorable look for good crops of all kinds; crop will be very heavy. Nutura county.-Favorable weather growing crops. Apricots and other crops are looking well, and will yield a crop. Grain not damaged by high end been found lying in a barley field near her place of abode, and urging that a physician be sent to her aid. A passer-by had some time before, on going to her place of residence, discovered that she was absent from the house, while all the doors were open. He shortly espied her lying in the barley field some distance from the residence, and on approaching her, saw that she was apparently ill. He carried her into the house and coming up town notified Marshal Steadman, who investigated the case and found that the woman was suffering from a complication of disorders due to la gripe. It is thought she remained lying in the field some hours. -A warrant was sworn to by Stewart Cargill on Tuesday, charging one John Doe Felt, who is a farm laborer living at Norwalk, with indecent exposure. Felt, appears, in the roadway near Brookshurst the previous afternoon, in the presence of two little girls living in the neighborhood who were on their way home from school, was guilty of the crime charged against him in a particularly reprehensible and vulgar manner. On learning of the state of affairs, Stewart and Herman Allgeyer started after him. Felt was in a light wagon and drove off toward Norwalk. At Buena Park the boys overtook the fellow at about 5 o'clock. Felt, however, had imperfectly described to them, and as he insisted that he hadn’t been near Brookshurst was permitted to go. Subsequently the boys learned that he had lied to them, but by this time he had disappeared. Stewart returned to Anaheim and on Tuesday morning swore to a warrant charging the fellow with the crime. On going to his place of residence on the other side of Norwalk it was found Felt had given up his position and skipped out. A deputy constable went to Los Angeles yesterday in search of him. Hugo Wetzel, the enterprising Placentia groceryman, was in the city on Tuesday and dropped in to insert advertisement in this issue, which will be found in another column. Hugo tells us that he has enlarged and renovated the Placentia store, and will keep on hand a larger and more comprehensive stock of groceries, furnishing goods, candy, cigars, tobacco and other goods usually found in a first-class country store. He informs us the country is full of railroad rumors, and the coming of the Southern Pacific is hailed with manifestations of delight. The reports at Placentia are that the S.P has acquired a depot site of seven acres on the Sam Kraemer tract, and that cars will be running into that inviting section before the summer is half over. Already there are indications of a bustling town to spring up in this richest of all sections in Southern California, and it would not surprise those conversant with the situation that within a year Placentia will be known far and wide as one of the largest shipping points in this section. It ships hundreds of cars of oranges, walnuts, cabbage and grain, and the output of the oil wells to the north is growing rapidly in proportions. It is also rumorled that the Santa Fe will extend its line from Fullerton to Placentia as soon as the S.P enters that territory, and reports are current that a depot site on Placentia avenue has already been secured by the Santa Fe Anaheim doits hat to the coming town of Placentia, and is glad to look forward to a speedy rail connection with it.

A story that is pitiable in the exile is told by John Kelley, an agederman who with his wife lives in a fully cabin at Anaheim Landing. They is now over seventy years of age and for years past has followed uncertain and rather unremunerative occupation of a clam digger, bring-the bivalves to Anaheim and Santa Clara and selling them from door to door. In this way he managed to pro-for himself and wife until finally, at two months ago, a misfortune due than poverty came to the little household. Both were taken with the man, which later developed a severe sick of fever. Anaheim Landing is critically depopulated during the winter months, and there were no neighbors to minister to the wants of sufferers. For days they bore ill in solitude, and finally their utility was reduced to so low an ebb one could not wait upon the other. Make their condition more distress—the meager supply of provisions on hand became exhausted, and the people, as well as the faithful old ones that stood in the corral, went about food. However, it was not far fate to die alone, for when hope almost departed, a friend who here. They returned to their home on yesterday morning's train.

It has been two years since Otto visited his folks here, and he is glad to get back home, even though it be for only a few days. Otto is one of the brighest boys who ever started out from Anaheim, and his many friends hereabout are glad to shake hands with him again. Supt. Kennedy of the cannery informs us that work will begin next week upon the enlargement of the building, by the addition of a room 50x75 feet on the south side of the works. This will give the cannery a floor space of 50x200 feet, as well as the boiler room and workshops. Mr. Kennedy thinks the coming season will begin early, and expects to start up soon after the 1st of June. New machinery will be put in, and the cooking capacity doubled. He looks for the largest crop of apricots ever raised in the country, and expects a very favorable season. Supt. Greer of the Pomona cannery visited with him on Sunday and reported the apricots in the Pomona valley falling off the trees. This is probably due to a touch of frost. No frost has yet appeared in this valley, and apricot trees give promise of a very large yield. Silk Crepons in all the newest designs at Herman Harris' dry goods store at Santa Ana.

Ed Kraemer came in on Monday from his Placentia ranch, and informs us one does not have to travel far to find the railroad grade stakes in his neighborhood. He states that his brother Sam has offered the Southern Pacific six acres for a depot site at an advantageous location, and that many railroad rumors fill the air. Sam has recently given a Los Angeles company an option upon eighty acres of land north of Carlton, where they will begin boring for oil as soon as the crop of wheat is taken off this summer. The point selected Ed Kraemer came in on Monday from his Plaentia ranch, and informs us one does not have to travel far to find the railroad grade stakes in his neighborhood. He states that his brother Sam has offered the Southern Pacific six acres for a depot site at an advantageous location, and that many railroad rumors fill the air. Sam has recently given a Los Angeles company an option upon eighty acres of land north of Carlton, where they will begin boring for all as soon as the crop of wheat is taken off this summer. The point selected for boring is further north than any of the wells so far located, but it is considered a favorable location and should still be struck it will be piped down to the sliding at Yorba. Sam has an interest in the oil, and should boring show what oil may be had, he may begin borings for oil on his own account. J. G. Shoemaker was in from Olive on Monday morning to get a load of number for the construction of bee hives. Mr. Shoemaker is a friend of the bees, and while he considers the outlook for honey not the brightest, he will house his bees comfortably, and will construct a number of new hives for them. He is of firm opinion that bees do not injure fruit, as is maintained in some quarters; on the contrary, he believes they are a benefit, in fertilizing the fruit, and carrying pollen from flower to flower. Bees do not puncture the outer rind of deciduous fruits, such as apricots, peaches, plums, etc., they being incapable in his opinion of penetrating the skin; but where fruit is punctured, they are quick to detect the oozing sweetness and they gather the honey therefrom as soon as possible. Mr. Shoemaker is one of the best known horticulturists at Olive, and his observations are those of an experienced farmer and bee raiser. Coyle's Egyptian Salve the great skin cure.
