WHAT CAUSES SMUT ON CORN? That and Other Questions Discussed at Monday Afternoon's Meeting of the Farmers' Club. There was a good attendance of members at the Farmers' club meeting at Mr. Korn's residence on Monday afternoon, and a very interesting session was the result. The question box contained the following questions: (1.) What causes smut on corn? Mr. Korn never saw smut on corn until last year. Mr. Danforth noticed smut in nearly every cornfield in this locality. Mr. Rogers said it was a common thing to have smut on wheat in the East, but he had never heard of any investigations being made to determine its cause or to provide a remedy. Mr. Fay said that in Colorado seed wheat was steeped half an hour in a solution of sulphate of copper, the night before sowing. It was then permitted to dry, preparatory to sowing. This prevented smutting. After a further discussion the question was referred to the Pasadena meeting of Farmers' clubs, to be held in January. (2.) I have a walnut tree that produced large walnuts, but they contained no meat. What is the cause of it? The opinion of the club was that the phenomenon was caused by lack of pollination. (3.) I have a walnut tree that produces a plenty of blossoms; yet yields no nuts. What is the cause of it? Cause assigned: That the staminate blooms before the pistillate, and disappears before the appearance of the latter. Both questions were referred to the Pasadena meeting, to give the wisdom to be assembled there a chance of further elucidating upon these interesting phenomena. (4.) Is the deep water rising in the wells? The chair (Mr. Fay) said this question could be answered by a great big no. A vote of thanks was extended John Eymann for his untiring efforts to make the recent meeting of the Pomological society successful. Carried unanimously, Mr. Eymann was not present, THE PIPE LINE FRANCHISE. City Burgomeisters Grapple with the Subject, but Lay the Matter Over Until the Next Meeting. At Tuesday evening's meeting of the City Trustees bids were to have been opened for the privilege of maintaining the pipe line laid by the water company last summer, running from Olive street through the Koenig tract to Los Angeles street, and thence along that thoroughfare to Broadway, and along Broadway to a point near Palm. No bids were submitted. Attorney Melrose, representing the water company, appeared before the board and on behalf of that company asked that it be not required to put up the bond of $500, nor that it pay the city 3 per cent upon the gross earnings of the pipe line, as set down in the draft of the franchise. He said that would be a harsh restriction to place upon the company, and although he did not believe the earnings of the pipe line would be much over $2.50 per year, yet the precedent the board was setting might operate at some future time to the disadvantage of the water company and the city as well. He said that all the proceedings of the board in the matter of granting the franchise were strictly according to the statutes, but he quoted from a decision of the Supreme Court relative to the law of 1893 (upon which the law of 1897 was based), to the effect that the law did not apply to a certain railway corporation in Fresno county because the franchise granted them was for the purpose of constructing connecting links in their system. The court held further that where there could be no competition, the terms of the act should not apply. He held that the present instance was similar thereto, and asked that the company be granted a franchise without the imposition of the conditions referred to. City Attorney Shynoweth, who had come down from Los Angeles to attend the meeting, advised the board that unless they followed the provisions of the statute implicitly, they would lay themselves liable to be removed from office, and also be guilty of a misdemeanor. He would pretend to say what ruling the Supreme Court would make upon the case in point, but his advice was that the board cleave WAS NEVER SUED FOR LIBEL. Armor of Orange a Holy Terror, But He Never Sold Himself Out For Hire. EDITOR GAZETTE:—The Plain Dealer has branched off on another subject, evidently realizing that it was making no headway with its insinuations about the county jail. Before taking up this new subject allow me to enter a protest against being charged with responsibility for what appears in the Orange Post; not that I am either ashamed of its utterances or unwilling to shield the editor from abuse, but she does not wish to be deprived of the credit for her work or freed from the responsibility that may be attached to it. As to the subject-matter in the Post, which started the cachination of the Plain Dealer, it neither originated in the office of that paper nor with any one in any way connected with the editor. In fact, the Post reported it as hearsay matter; but the Plain Dealer is so used to manufacturing its quotations that it took it for granted that others were doing the same thing. It seems that the Plain Dealer has just discovered that Armor is an anarchist, a booted and spurred Mexican bandit, a cutting-and-slashing, shoot him-on-the-spot cowboy, run or doze tinamite tuffels dot ploze beebles mit der het off. The idea of a modern newspaper falling back on ancient history! Why, everybody has known for the last ten years that he was a very monster, of uncertain height, a regular heavy-weight, with sanetimonious mien and irascible temper, whose chief delight consisted in baiting editors and cutting down cherry tr—bills! One new berry would not be a taste for him, and the whole water-stealing outfit, if taken internally, would cause him as little discomfort as a whiff of the vaporings of the Plain Dealer. But notwithstanding that Armor is a holy terror and all-round bad man, he has hung around these parts for a quarter of a century and, strange to relate, not a single individual ever heard of him attacking the interests of this section, nor of selling himself out for hire to help rob the poor of their sole means of livelihood, nor of his ever betraying the common people to those who were seeking to plunder them; in other words, he never ran a newspaper for spite, to malign his neighbors, to attack faithful public officials, to destroy the confidence of every one in his fellows, to familiarize the innocent with vice, to befoul the virtuous and upright to divide and weaken the Re Both questions were referred to the Pasadena meeting, to give the wisdom to be assembled there a chance of further elucidating upon these interesting phenomena. (4.) Is the deep water rising in the wells? The chair (Mr. Fay) said this question could be answered by a great big no. A vote of thanks was extended John Eymann for his uniting efforts to make the recent meeting of the Pomological society successful. Carried unanimously, Mr. Eymann was not present, and he will never know what he missed. The chair made an interesting report of the meeting of the State irrigation convention at San Francisco, which he attended as a delegate from the club. He said that Mr. Maxwell, the gentleman who spoke in behalf of the national irrigation idea at the recent meeting of the Pomological society, had packed the meeting in the proportion of 5 to 3, there being nearly 500 delegates present. No resolution could be passed except it favored the national irrigation congress, and those who opposed that plan were badgered by its supporters until it became apparent they would be permitted to accomplish nothing. An amendment to the resolution supporting the national system, which exempted timber lands from being leased for grazing purposes, showed the convention had been packed in the interest of the large cattlemen, mainly of Wyoming, who desire to obtain control of these lands, so that the smaller cattlemen would be frozen out. The amendment sought to exempt timber lands, so that the forests might not be destroyed by fires and be turned thereby into grazing lands. The cattlemen are desirous of bringing this latter scheme about; the public at large, who desire the conservation of the flood waters of winter, are opposed to the destruction of the forests. One man on the convention floor stated that a member of the resolutions committee (presumably Mr. Maxwell) had stated that if the amendment were adopted he would place a keg of powder under the convention and blow it up! Senator Warren of Wyoming, who appears to be the head and front of the national movement, owns over 100,000 acres of land in Wyoming which would be vastly improved by the construction of Federal reservoirs; while of the 700,000 acres owned by the State Elwood Mead had informed Mr. Fay that not an acre was susceptible to irrigation. It would cost the government $40 per acre to store water sufficient to cover each of Senator Warren's acres with two feet of water. This would be a pretty good thing for Senator Warren, who could dispose of the land for $25 or $30 per acre. Mr Mead had informed him on the train going north that every water hole and stream in Wyoming was owned by Senator Warren and his associates. The speaker opposed the national irrigation movement, as being in the interest of the Wyoming cattlemen. He favored the cession of government lands to the States, and that each State care for the lands as would best serve the purposes of the people. The report brought out much discussion the consensus of the opinion being favorable to the idea of State cession of the government grazing lands, and the exclusion of timber lands from the scheme of renting them to cattlemen for grazing purposes. The club entered upon a discussion of reservoirs, during which the chair stated that the best reservoir in the terms of the act should not apply. He held that the present instance was similar thereto, and asked that the company be granted a franchise without the imposition of the conditions referred to. City Attorney, Chynoweth, who had come down from Los Angeles to attend the meeting, advised the board that unless they followed the provisions of the statute implicitly, they would lay themselves liable to be removed from office, and also be guilty of misdemeanor. He would not pretend to say what ruling the Supreme Court would make upon the case in point, but his advice was that the board cleave closely to the requirements of the statutes. The subsequent discussion revealed that Trustee Dickel alone favored granting the water company the franchise without burdensome restrictions, while Trustees Helmsen, Schwenkert and Schneider were of opinion the provisions of the statute should be adhered to. Mr. Dickel finally moved that the water company be granted a franchise without requiring of it a bond or a percentage of the receipts of the pipe line. There was no second, and the motion fell to the ground with a dull, sickening thud. Mr. Schwenkert moved that the report of the Ordinance Committee (embodying the franchise as originally drawn) be passed to second reading. Seconded by Trustee Schneider and carried. Mr. Melrose looked over the ordinance and said that if it were finally passed in its present form, it would be acceptable to the water company, there being no restrictions in the draft. Mr. Chynoweth looked over the ordinance and said that even if passed she would not be binding, because no bid for the pipe line franchise, or bond, had been submitted. Here was a tangle, and the board wisely determined to lay the matter over until the next meeting. Mr. Malcolm, the new proprietor of the Commercial hotel, appeared before the board and asked that the saloon license for the bar conducted in the hotel be transferred from Michael Neipp to him. The application was granted. Trustee Helmsen reported that Chester Spencer had informed him that he was ready to sign the street sprinkling contract, and was now engaged in perfecting his bond; but asked for three weeks' time in order to get ready. Agreed to. The Street Superintendent was instructed to clean out the rain gutter along the shady side of Center street, so that the storm water may run off more readily; also to throw dry ground toward the center of the street, when the thoroughfare would be trimmed up with a grader. Trustee Schneider, who was engaged in fumigating the orange trees in the Rimpau place, stated that Mr. Rimpau desired 12 incandescent electric lights installed in his residence and an arc light suspended at the corner of Palm and Broadway, his residence corner. No action. Marshal Steadman reported that Mrs. Berringer had not paid her last month's hotel license. The board ordered that collection be enforced. Bills to the amount of $42.65 were audited and ordered paid. Application of H. A McWilliams for the removal of a frame building west of Dickel's grocery establishment, to the corner west of Nemetz's paint shop. Granted. Communication of J. H. Clabaugh asking that oil shipments be divided (the Santa Fe) But notwithstanding that Armor is a holy terror and all-round bad man, he has hung around these parts for a quarter of a century and, strange to relate, not a single individual ever heard of him attacking the interests of this section, nor of selling himself out for hire to help rob the poor of their sole means of livelihood, nor of his ever betraying the common people to those who were seeking to plunder them; in other words, he never ran a newspaper for spite, to malign his neighbors, to attack faithful public officials, to destroy the confidence of every one in his felicities to familiarize the innocent with vice, to befoul the virtuous and upright, to divide and weaken The Publican party in the county, to obstruct and vilify the water board, to encourage outsiders in their attacks upon the vested rights of this section totoy toungerulpulous schemers and betray his own community, and all while pretended to be only virtuous loyal and discriminating citizen in this community. No, Mr. Editor, bad armor is no one ever heard of his deception any of these despicable things hence he has never been sued for libel in all the twenty-five years of his career in this territory of what is now Orange county. In conclusion, allow me to say to you that people of Anaheim that in my opinion they have an excellent Board of Directors of the Anaheim Union Water company, men who are unselfishly devoting a great deal of time tothe interests of their section without adequate compensation.

Wyoming was owned by Senator Warren and his associates. The speaker opposed the national irrigation movement, as being in the interest of the Wyoming cattlemen. He favored the cession of government lands to the States, and that each State care for the lands as would best subserve the purposes of the people. The report brought out much discussion, the consensus of the opinion being favorable to the idea of State cession of the government grazing lands, and the exclusion of timber lands from the scheme of renting them to cattlemen for grazing purposes. The club entered upon a discussion of reservoirs, during which the chair stated that the best reservoir in the world was winter irrigation. Irrigate in the winter, even if it does rain; the ground is the very best reservoir, and if this practice was followed out there would be little discomfort during the two months of short water supply in the summer. Miss Marie Horstmann served refreshments, after which the club extended a vote of thanks to host and hostess for their entertainment. The club accepted an invitation from Mrs. Langenberger to meet at her residence on the afternoon of the last Monday in January—the December meeting having been skipped on account of the holidays. Why Remick Left Home. Moses Remick was sentenced by Judge Landell, in the Buena Park Justice's Court, on Thursday morning last, to a fine of $30, or fifteen days in the county jail, as punishment for his assault upon Judge Shanley. Mr. Remick had not the $30, and so he concluded to leave home for a period of fifteen days, and he is now the guest of the county at the Santa Ana jail. Meanwhile his daughter is being cared for by the neighbors. Thanksgiving exercises were held at the Central school house yesterday afternoon, the pupils in the primary and intermediate classes taking part. The exercises were held in Mrs. Horr's room, and were very interesting. Miss Rector's pupils executed a "coorn" drill which was much appreciated. The children in Mrs. Horr's room represented the Holidays in costume, and the little tots in Miss Kerlin's room recited Thanksgiving rhymes. A number of visitors were present.

Prof. A. P. Hayne, of the agricultural college of the University of California, is now at work investigating the question why so many olive trees in Southern California fail to produce fruit. He was induced to come here by Secretary Frank Wiggins, of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, with whom applications have been filed for the assistance of Prof. Hayne by olive-growers in many sections. The work which Prof. Hayne has in hand is a scientific investigation, and will include a study of soils, climatic influences, irrigation and pollination, as related to the olive, and of the relative value and adaptability of the different varieties of that fruit. The olive has been steadily losing in popularity for a number of years, and horticulturists who have money tied up in olive orchards are basing their hopes on the ability of Prof. Hayne to find the cause of the failure of the trees to produce.

Delicious refreshments were served by the hostess and at a late hour the guests departed, having spent a delightful afternoon. A party of fifteen mighty nimrods engaged in a rabbit hunt on the Kraemer ranch on Sunday, going as far as Yorba. The results of the hunt were 76 jackrabbits, 19 cottontails, 6 chicken hawks and 1 coyote. A week from next Sunday the hunters will have a coyote hunt in the territory northeast of town, stretching toward Orange. A number of Santa Ana and Orange nimrods are expected to participate. Coyotes are said to be quite numerous in this tract. Mr. Hunter has lost 50 fine hens by the varmints, which lie in wait for them in the mornings as they come off the roost, and make off with the fattest fowl in the lot. While Henry Smith and young Bustamente were standing on Center street south of the Heinzman residence on Saturday evening about 8 o'clock, engaged in a moment's talk on their way home, their attention was attracted by a bright light apparently about three feet long, sailing at an elevation of about 15 feet above the ground, some 20 yards ahead of them, toward the north. It moved from east to west, and curved to the south, going about as fast as a man could run, and shortly disappeared in the barley field south of Center street. There was no explosion and no sound when the light extinguished as it seemed to strike the earth. The boys say it was no meteor, but it was quite an unusual sight just the same. Anaheim has at last an experienced hotel-keeper, and what we have lacked (a thoroughly first-class hotel) is about to be opened to the traveling public. The Commercial hotel property has been purchased by E. L. Malcolm, a thorough-going and up-to-date hotel man, who recently conducted the Terminal Tavern at Terminal Island, and who takes charge of the house immediately. Mr. Malcolm brings with him one of the best cooks in Southern California, the same one who made his house at Terminal Island so successful. He will serve his guests with the best market affords, will cater to private parties, and will be at home to commercial travelers. He is a gentleman of pleasing personality, and having come into possession of the property, has in view the inauguration of extensive improvements. John Woelke has traded his residence property on Center street for the Hotel Argyl in Los Angeles, which for some years past has been the property of Isaac Lyons. Mr. Woelke will remove to Los Angeles, and Mr. Lyons will come with his family to Anaheim to reside. The latter gentleman was formerly in business here, and his many friends will be glad to welcome him back. Mr. Woelke goes to Los Angeles to enter a larger field, and will conduct the hotel which by the terms of the trade becomes his property.

A fine dinner was served at noon, and the afternoon was spent in playing croquet and other games. Mr. Dunn has lived at the grove 22 years, and is a well-known and highly respected member of the community. He lived at Dover during the sea battle between the Kearsarge and Alabama, and heard shots exchanged during the battle. District Attorney Williams has filed for record a lien upon the property of "Doc" Pfeningen, situated near Fullerton, for services rendered by the Orange county horticultural commissioners, in fumigating his trees for the destruction of scale posts. The sum involved is $28.10, and accrued costs. Pfeninger's trees were infested with red scale, and his agent refused to have them fumigated. Horticultural Commissioner Huntington instructed Julius Schneider to fumigate the trees, and now the bill for the work is made a lien against the property.

It is claimed that Bickel received $100 on account of this deal and changed his mind and agreed to transfer the licenses to Conrad. Two other persons appeared to be involved in the license juggling but the case and on February 15, 1898, commission granted a license for place to Henry Bickel, who has been then held it. Now the commissioners feel mad because they were told by Conrad getting back his lien through an agent. The board will be even madder if it were big enough about the lopping off of the two companies that flock with the other and has reduced the capacity for an additional three containers. A Narrow Escape. Thankful words written by Mrs. Ada Hart of Groton, S.D. "Was taken over a bad cold which settled on my cough set in and finally terminated in Consumption. Four doctors came up, saying I could live but a lot time. I gave myself up to my doctor, determined if I could not stay with my friends on earth, I would meet unabent ones above. My husband advised to get Dr. King's New Disorder for Consumption, Coughs and Sneezes. I gave it a trial, took in all, put bottles. It has cured me, and God, I am saved and now a well healthy woman."

ANNIN, Fullerton, The State Board of Horticulture has prohibited the importation of Mexican oranges into California. This action has been taken as the result of the discovery that the consignment of oranges from the southern republic was infected with Mexican maggots, a pest much dreaded by orange growers. The Steamer Colon, which arrived in San Francisco several days ago, from Mexican ports, brought among her cargo sixteen boxes of oranges, which were taken on board at Acapulco. For some time Mexican orange shipments have been received with suspicion, so the officials of the Board of Horticulture were on watch. Inspector Craw made an examination of the fruit, and found it badly infected. He at once ordered it destroyed, and the entire consignment was burned. Later a notice was issued warning shippers against sending any Mexican oranges to California. The steamer Curacoaca, which is due within a few days, is said to be bringing a quantity of oranges from Mexican points. The fruit will be seized on arrival here, and will be destroyed. Today the intercollegiate Thanksgiving football game between Stanford and Berkeley takes place in San Francisco. Tom McFadden, son of W.W. McFadden of Placentia, will play on the end for Stanford. The Bulletin speaking of the young player uses the following complimentary words concerning him: "The complexion of the contest for end has been changed once more and now it would appear as if Parker and McFadden would play the extremes. Not that Rice is playing poorly, but Parker has gone into the late line-ups with a vim and dash that if continued is certain to win for him what he at one time almost dispaired of winning. As for McFadden he is assured of his position, barring accidents. And "accidents" is an ominous word to McFadden. Year after year he has trained and practiced until a week or so before the game, only to be hurt and prevented from playing. This season he had several bad bruises, and is a trifle sore at present from the most recent one. He plays a heavy game. His tackles are hard and the one tackled does not generally move after being brought down." Clarence McFadden, upon whom great reliance was placed to assist in winning the game from Berkeley, is laid up with a sprained knee, and a letter from Stanford says there is weeping and gnashing of teeth thereat. John Woelke traded his residence property on Center street for the Hotel Argyl in Los Angeles, which for some years past has been the property of Isaac Lyons. Mr. Woelke will remove to Los Angeles, and Mr. Lyons will come with his family to Anaheim to reside. The latter gentleman was formerly in business here, and his many friends will be glad to welcome him back. Mr. Woelke goes to Los Angeles to enter a larger field, and will conduct the hotel which by the terms of the trade becomes his property. Mrs. Rust entertained on Thursday afternoon in honor of her cousin, Mrs. Hasty of Oregon. The house was tastily decorated with chrysanthemums. During the afternoon there was an interesting "guessing" game, at which Mrs. Dickel and Miss Theresa Fay won the prizes—wedgewood vases. Miss Edith Fay sang several songs in her usual charming manner. Later in the afternoon the hostess served delicious refreshments, which were done full justice to by all present. About dusk the guests bade their hostess good bye, having spent a delightful afternoon. Supt. Sheppard of the water company was in town on Tuesday afternoon. He recently entertained a Mr. Fowler of Duarte, who informed him that during the past summer as high as $6 per hour was charged for a stream of 25 inches of water, and in a number of cases $8 per hour was paid for a stream of like volume. For a head of 100 inches this would amount to $24 per hour, or $576 for the 24 hours. The highest rate charged by the Anaheim Water company for 100 inches of water last summer was 80 cents per hour. Mr. Sheppard has been recently through the country between Highlands and Redlands, and reports it looking bad on account of lack of water. Bert Boyd and Miss Ida L. Menges will be married to-day (Thursday) at noon, at the residence of the bride's brother, Dr. Menges of Santa Ana. Rev Stone of this city will be the officiating clergyman. Mr. Boyd is one of our most popular young men, he having during the years of his residence here won the esteem of all with whom he has come in contact. Miss Menges is a lady of many loveable qualities, and will without doubt be a rare and radiant Thanksgiving Day bride, altogether worthy of the popular groom. After a short honeymoon the happy couple will take up their residence in this city. We join many friends of the bride and groom in extending the felicitations of the season. M.
