BANDSTAND MUSINGS. About Present Local Happenings. EDITOR GAZETTE:—Well, I suppose it is possible that there is considerable wood about my head, so that it is hard to get things through it; but hard as it is, some things do get through somehow. It seems to me that with all our talk about growth and progress and Mother Colony, and that sort of thing, there is still a pretty big share of the undesirable about us, so that we are somewhat of a laughing-stock to our neighbors. Just look at our Justice's court! Said to be the place where tangles get straightened out, and where wrongdoers get handled in a wise, firm, desirable manner. Proper officers are provided to do that sort of thing, but it seems as if they don't always do their duty. The rightly punishable undertakes to administer punishment, and the representative of Uncle Sam, the guardian of justice, is made to bite the dust. Why so? Because a sworn officer prefers to do something else rather than do what he was appointed to do. There is another fuss—a so-called representative of the press; one who should be a guardian of our rights and privileges; a professed exponent of the principles of right between man and man. He should be a leader and educator of the people, but he isn't. It is said that when he went into the lumber room where he kept the stuff that he peddled around he opened the wrong box, and he let out—oh, my! why, hold your nose, of course; but don't it smell awful? His own tastes, if he had any; his own nose, such as it is, are so out of gear that he did not know how bad it did smell, until somebody had him arrested. Of course, we want a free press, but not a free nuisance. Some may seem to relish it, but some don't, for it is neither amusing nor profiting. Then look at our school—and high school at that. There are two sorts of people there, those who go to teach and those who go to learn. So long as these two sorts of people keep their own places, and do their own work, things can go along fairly well; but when the cackling fledglings are encouraged to try to run things somebody will have trouble. When Mr. and Mrs. Hummingbird undertake to say that their progeny is a full-grown peacock, there is apt to be some funny music. Did you ever hear a peacock sing? There can be no doubt that Young America is a very interesting being. HERR GAMBRINUS ON LAGER. Wants to Know the Why and Wherefore of So Much Money Being Sent Away from Anaheim for Beer. MEIN LIEBER EDITOR:—I shust dakmein ben in hand to inquire why so much beebles don’t like to trink Anaheim lager.

Asks For Mercy,and Will Be Sentenced at 10 O'Clock This Morning. A warrant issued out of Justice J. W. Landell’s court at Buena Park, charging Mose Remick with battery upon Justice Shanley of this township, was served on that individual on Tuesday. He was taken before Justice Landell and held for trial on Monday next in bonds of $100, which up to yesterday he had failed to raise. Justice Shanley was able to come down town on Monday, limping badly and using a cane. During Remick’s assault upon him, on Tuesday of last week, he fell upon his assailant, whom he was politely assisting out of his office. spraining his knee. In the evening, after returning from Buena Park, where he went to swear out the warrant, he slipped in alighting from his buggy at his residence and wrenched his leg at the same place. He had to be carried into the house and lost consciousness. He was unable to move about until Monday of this week,having been confined to his bed during five days. On Monday afternoon, when Remick learned a warrant would be served upon him, he sent O.S. Davis, the Los Angeles-street barber, to the Judge to intercede for him, and asking that an interview be arranged. The Judge replied that he had seen quite enough of Remick, and did not desire an interview with him. Yesterday Remick manifested a desire to plead guilty, and “crawled.” He sent word to the Judge by Squire Langley, begging him not to prosecute. To this the Judge assented, but when Langley suggested that he (Langley) go along with Remick and plead for him, the Judge objected, stipulating that Remick might do as he pleased; but that if he employed counsel,counsel would also be employed on the other side. Yesterday morning at 9 o’clock Remick set out, with Deputy Constable Llewellyn, to go to Buena Park, to plead guilty. At 2 o’clock Judge Landell was telephoned to and replied that the pair had not yet showed up. Later—At 4 o’clock yesterday afternoon a telephone message from our Buena Park correspondent announced that Remick had showed up at half-past 3. He pleaded guilty, waived time for sentence, and the Judge ordered him to appear for sentence this (Thursday) morning at 10 o’clock. but not a free nuisance. Some may seem to relish it, but some don't, for it is neither amusing nor profiting. Then look at our school—and high school at that. There are two sorts of people there, those who go to teach and those who go to learn. So long as these two sorts of people keep their own places, and do their own work, things can go along fairly well; but when the cackling fledglings are encouraged to try to run things somebody will have trouble. When Mr. and Mrs. Hummingbird undertake to say that their progeny is a full-grown peacock, there is apt to be some funny music. Did you ever hear a peacock sing? There can be no doubt that Young America is a very interesting being, but when Young America gets abnormally big about the head then he is to be pitied. It would almost seem as if somebody at some time had not been faithful and judicious in the application of slipper or shingle on the right place, and now the irritation breaks out at the other end. Those who have helped and encouraged this abnormal growth of head may some time see that they made a big mistake. Can the state of things referred to be justified? Well, hardly. It, in each case, is brought about largely by carelessness in the selection of material with which to fill important positions. A good many men want what they should not have. People take too much on trust in public matters; men will give an amount of credit in filling public positions that they would not give in their private business, and the public is badly treated. A moderate share of common sense and common honesty infused into the management of public matters of all kinds would be an improvement all round. So muses the BANDSTAND. SOLDIERS AND SAILORS. Medals to Be Distributed to Them by the Order of Native Sons. LOS ANGELES, Cal., Nov. 17, 1899. EDITOR ANAHEIM GAZETTE—Dear Sir: The Native Sons of the Golden West, having distributed the medals to the honorably discharged soldiers and sailors of the Spanish war who reside in Northern California, are about to distribute them to those residing in Southern California. The committee is unable to ascertain the names of the unattached soldiers and sailors now resident in Southern California, and you will greatly aid in the work the committee has undertaken by giving publicity to the fact that these medals and the certificates accompanying them are about to be distributed, and giving notice through your paper for all unattached soldiers and sailors of the Spanish war, who are now in Southern California and who have not received their medals, to immediately communicate with the undersigned, 202 South Spring street. Respectfully yours, H. C. LIGHTENBERGER, Chairman Executive Committee. [All unattached soldiers and sailors in this vicinity should accordingly communicate at once with Mr. Lichtenberger.]—Ed.

Resolutions of Condolence. Anaheim lodge, F. & A. M., has adopted the following resolutions of condolence on the death of Bro. J. E. Bacon: To the Worshipful Master, Wardens and Brethren of Anaheim Lodge, No. 207, F. & A.M. Your committee appointed to draft suitable resolutions on the death of our loved Brother, Jonathan Edward Bacon, who departed this life October 7, 1899, would fraternally submit the following: Once more the grim Reaper has invaded our ranks, and has taken from our midst one of our most cherished and beloved members; one who from the day of his raising to the hour of his death, covering a period of nearly thirty years, manifested in a marked degree his strong, steadfast and unwavering devotion to the grand principles and tenets of our Order. His sterling traits of character in life were so conspicuous as to command from us an expression of the high esteem with which he was regarded. This cannot be better exemplified than by a quotation from Shakespeare, for like Corin the shepherd, he could truly say: "I am a true laborer; I earn that I eat; get what I wear; we owe no man hate; envoy no man's happiness; glad of other men's good; content with my harm." We deeply mourn his death; we shall miss him. Resolved, That we send loving words of sympathy to the relatives of our departed Brother in their distant Eastern homes that may somewhat relieve and prove a solace to their grief-striken hearts; and assure them that loving hands tenderly lowered into the bosom of Mother Earth all that was mortal of their loved kinsman, there to sleep quietly in the silent City of the Dead, until the Resurrection morning; and that the newly made mound was strewn with a profusion of flowers, sweet emblems of purity. Resolved, That the thanks of this Lodge be returned to Santa Ana Lodge, No. 241, F. & A. M., for the great service but that if he employed counsel, counsel would also be employed on the other side. Yesterday morning at 9 o'clock Remick set out with Deputy Constable Llewellyn, to go to Buena Park, to blead guilty. At 2 o'clock Judge Landell was telephoned to and replied that the pair had not yet showed up. Later—At 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon a telephone message from our Buena Park correspondent announced that Remick had showed up at half past 3. He pleaded guilty, waived time for sentence, and the Judge ordered him to appear for sentence this (Thursday) morning at 10 o'clock. Bismarck's Iron Nerve Was the result of his splendid health. Indomitable will and tremendous energy are not found where Stomach, Liver, Kidneys and bowels are out of order. If you want these qualities and the success they bring, use Dr.King's New Life Pills. They develop every power of brain and body. Only 25 cents at Paul A. Derge's drug store. Turner Concert. The Turners' concert and dance on Saturday evening last was a well attended and very enjoyable affair. The audience was first favored with music by the orchestra, which later in the evening played for the dance. The singing section's chorus," Wanderlust," was greatly appreciated. Prof. Thomas' piano solo was rendered in a most pleasing manner, and he responded to the encore with "Home, Sweet Home," in beautiful variations. The singing section were recalled, and were greatly applauded after each song. Prof. Whann's cornet solo," Aqua-rella," was one of the best cornet solos we have heard in a long time. The audience was sorry to hear Capt. Schumacher announce the absence of Merrill Rice, who was to have rendered a cello solo. He had been taken suddenly ill on that afternoon, and was unable to attend. The small boys of the Turn Verein showed good training by the various exercises they performed, the last being a tug-of-war in which some sixteen boys took part. This feature was exceedingly interesting. The hall was now cleared and a social dance was enjoyed by the Turners and their guests until the wee small hours of the morning.

Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield, Ill., makes the statement that she caught cold, which settled on her lungs; she was treated for a month by her family physician, but grew worse. She told her she was a hopeless victim of consumption and that no medicine could cure her.

After using two bottles of Electric Bitters, she is wonderfully proved and able to do her own work.

The rainfall for the season, up to yesterday at 8 o'clock, when the measurement was taken at Mr. Dickel's gauge, amounts to 2.20 inches. Last year to date we had no rain. On December 15th of last year the first rain fell, and .32 of an inch was recorded. We are thus 2.20 inches of water ahead of the record of last year, with three weeks to go to arrive at the time of last year's first rainfall. The weather thus far has been ideal, the rain having been followed by balmy weather. Barley is growing nicely in many a patch, and the feed is coming on excellently.

The old Wolfgram house formerly situated at this point has been moved across the street.

Their line of dry goods will be opened and placed on display in time for their opening on Saturday next. Three are lights have been installed in their stores, together with numerous incandescentes. The stock which will be offered for sale by this enterprising new firm will be one of the newest and best ever brought to Orange county. The goods are fresh from the wholesalers, and make a very neat and creditable appearance. From all indications we should say that Anaheim is now to have a dry goods store that will compare favorably with any in Southern California.

He has been engaged to lower the wier way of the dam across the channel some two feet, to meet with the views of the Peatland farmers who complain that its present height interferes with the proper drainage of their lands. Groat wears a good imitation of one of the Oregon's searchlights in his bosom, but informs us he had that before he struck the Bolsa Chica job. J: J. Fees was in town on Tuesday from Los Angeles, where he is located temporarily at 903 East First street. Mr. Fees is the inventor of a non-poisonous insect destroyer, which works by inoculating the tree, and which he guarantees to do effective work. His advertisement will be found on the second page. Our horticulturists will do well to enter into correspondence with him relative to the merits of his scale destroyer, Mr. Fees invites correspondence and will answer all letters promptly. B. Pitman, traveling freight agent of the Southern Pacific, was in town on Tuesday. Mr. Pitman, speaking relative to the statement that despite the two years of drouth there was more freight in Southern California to be shipped out than there were cars to carry it, said that was due in large part to the fact that much of the produce of the country matures just about this time. There is celery (of which the Peatlands will have 900 to 1000 carloads), oranges, walnuts, cabbage, dried and canned goods and beans, to the total extent of tens of thousands of cars. Mr. Pitman is an observant freight agent, and he never comes to Anaheim but he does business for his company. Superintendent Muir of the Southern Pacific railway, accompanied by the division superintendents of the company, passed through town in his special car on Thursday morning last.The party went to Tustin, Newport and Smeltzer. Their visit signifies the early construction of the road from Benedict to Smeltzer station, and in all probability from Los Alamitos to Long Beach. There is also considerable talk about the construction of the road to San Diego. Mr. Huntington gave out an intimation to that effect in New York some days ago, and among the wise men the opinion prevails that the coming year will see ground broken on the line from Tustin south. As soon as the gap at Surf is sufficiently completed to withdraw a gang of men, the work hereabout will be taken up, and in all probability the Placentaia road will be constructed along with other new lines. Samuel Kraemer was in town on Monday. He is rejoiced that he cast his lot with the Anaheim walnut association this year, inasmuch as he is several hundred dollars ahead as a result. He is a firm believer in the association of all growers, and remembers the time, not so many years ago, before the exchange was formed when Earl had the nerve to offer him 25 cents a box for his oranges picked and delivered at the packing house. With such prices prevailing, one might just as well grub up his trees. Nowadays the association pays $1 per box, which makes orange growing pay fairly well. Reckoning 90 orange trees to the acre, and each tree producing five boxes per tree, he con- Fritz Ruhmann yesterday sold acres on South Olive street to Bold Neubauer; consideration,$500. Emil Fossek has accepted a post in a blacksmith shop at Norwalk left on Sunday afternoon's train to up his new duties. George Gray arrived yesterday at San Francisco, and in company Frank Ward of Los Angeles drove to his walnut ranch on The Gar Grove road. A. F. Clarke of Riverside wrote the New York Sun to ask all who "dreamed true" or had other peculiar dream experiences, to write him, give details of the phenomenon. Judge J.B.Pierre has filed a petition in bankruptcy in The United States District court in Los Angeles owes $4960.90, and lists assets to amount of $7882, of which amount is in real estate, and $2410 is claim exempt. This is the second time Judge has gone through bankrupty first time having been back in 70's. Senior Manuel Crespin was in place at Placentia on Monday. He informs that walnut crop is about harvested marketed at satisfactory prices.W gathering the nuts on The Capt.W place some days ago Senor Crespin struck in the eye by a falling nut put to serious inconvenience.The swelled to large proportions,and she speedy application of remedies ventured him from having a bad eye suffered with it for ten days,但 is all right again.The Captain,H ports,has entirely recovered from recent sick spell.

The goods are fresh from the wholesalers, and make a very neat and creditable appearance. From all indications we should say that Anaheim is now have a dry goods store that will compare favorably with any in Southern California. The firm has employed Miss Belle Negus of this city, Guy Lovering of Orangesthorpe avenue, and Gus Weferling of Los Angeles as clerks, and Messrs. Harris & Falkenstein will also be on hand to wait upon their customers. Read their new advertisement on the second page, and whether or not you receive one of their handsome invitation cards to attend their opening, on Saturday, go and see what an up-to-date department store (including dry goods, gent's furnishings, groceries and produce) this new firm is establishing. On dit that Chester Spencer is about ready to throw up his recently acquired street-sprinkling contract, which the City Trustees last week awarded him at the rate of $2.12 per day for each of two teams. R. Fossek, the present sprinkler (who was the next highest bidder, his bid being $2.24 and $2.44 for the two teams respectively), has been in consultation with Mr. Spencer, and reports are current that he was willing to pay Spencer $100 for the withdrawal of the latter's bid, hoping thereby to acquire the contract at the figures named in his own bid. On learning, however, that if Spencer's bid went by default the whole thing would have to be advertised over again (or Fossek would have to take the job at Spencer's figures), the deal fell through. Fossek refuses to take the contract at Spencer's figures, and the latter feels disposed to let the matter go by default. Spencer said at the meeting of the Trustees at which he was awarded the contract that he had had no idea of submitting a bid to do the sprinkling up to a couple of hours previous to the meeting. He added he was not very much elated at getting the contract at the figures given, and said he did not consider the job was a very profitable one. However, he said he would carry out the contract, but has since probably come to the sensible conclusion that there is no money and less glory in working for the public for nothing. Should he decline to assume the duties of the contract, he will forfeit his deposit of $10 made at the time of submitting his bid. He is rejoiced that he cast his lot with the Anaheim walnut association this year, inasmuch as he is several hundred dollars ahead as a result. He is a firm believer in the association of all growers, and remembers the time, not so many years ago, before the exchange was formed, when Earl had the nerve to offer him 25 cents a box for his oranges picked and delivered at the packing house. With such prices prevailing, one might just as well grub up his trees. Nowadays the association pays $1 per box, which makes orange growing pay fairly well. Reckoning 90 orange trees to the acre, and each tree producing five boxes per tree, he considers the business sufficiently remunerative to hold out prospects for an increased acreage in the time to come. He has trees on his place 12 years old which produce 15 boxes. His walnuts this year sold in some lots as high as ten cents per pound, which is the price realized by the members of the Anaheim association for their later sales. He is also a firm believer in the necessity for the construction of a reservoir by the water company, and says if one were constructed he would lay out a large new acreage of naval orange trees on his ranch east of Placentia. Wm. Schumacher drove up from the Bolsa Chica shooting grounds on Sunday. He reports the advance guard of northern birds just coming in, their flight southward having been delayed later than usual for one cause or another—probably the warm weather so far prevailing. The conference to have been had between the club officials and the Supervisors on Tuesday of last week did not eventuate, owing to the failure of the latter to arrive, which was due probably to the rainy weather. Mr. Botsford was on the ground and met with a committee of Peatland farmers, and the result of the conference was that an amicable arrangement was agreed to relative to the dam. The wierway in the dam will be lowered two feet, which will remove the obstacles complained of. After the conference Mr. Botsford forwarded the following letter to the Supervisors: F. P. Nickey, chairman Board of Supervisors, Santa Ana, Cal. Dear Sirt.: As per conference and also a letter received from Mr. Beckett I was at the J. B. Raines home, in the Peatland country, on the day of appointment November 16th. As the members of your board did not put in an appearance I take it the weather was too stormy for the drive from Santa Ana. The Bolsa Land company has decided and will at once put in a new wierway, reducing the level of the water two feet below present level. I had a conference yesterday with a number of farmers in the Peatland country, and they all seem to think that this change would lower the water and be entrely satisfactory to them. I would be very glad to hear from you of any further arrangements you may make for a conference at some future date. Yours truly. Nov. 16, 1899. S.
