MASTER HAND AT THE HELM. President Fay's Annual Report to Water Shareholders. A Loss of $4200 Worth of Water Sustained by the Company During the Five Summer Months of Last Year—Elaborate Maps and Charts Showing the Loss of Each Day of That Time—Where Did This Loss Go? Shareholders May Examine the Books and Learn for Themselves—An Interesting Question for the Stockholders to Ponder. At the annual meeting of stockholders in the Anaheim Union Water company on Saturday, the President of the company, W. J. Fay, Esq., submitted the following very interesting report. Mr. Fay followed the reading of his report by directing the attention of the stockholders to a number of elaborate charts and maps hung upon the wall, showing the amount of water delivered to the zanjeros during the five months of May, June, July, August and September of last year, the amount of water delivered to stockholders, and the loss. The loss sustained by the company amounted to $4200 during that time. The report was as follows: ANAHEIM, CAL., Jan. 27, 1900. To the stockholders of the Anaheim Union Water company—Gentlemen: On account of the great amount of time occupied in completing the arrangements for purchase of the Durkee property, this report will be more brief than that which I had in mind to present. The end of this, the third dry year, finds us in such good condition, that felicitations all around are, I think, justifiable. The financial standing of the company has not only been maintained but continuously improved, and at least one vexatious suit at law disposed of by mutual agreement between the Bixby estate and yourselves, the terms but the effort to carry it out has been delayed somewhat, the time of your directors being absorbed by other important matters. It therefore passes to the incoming Board of Directors—With one of the principal defendants (Durkee) disposed of, the others are likely to be more easily dealt with. In the effort to discover the cause of the discrepancy, which existed between the quantity of water delivered to the zanjeros and that delivered by the zanjeros, to the stockholders, as per their charge sheets, and assuming that the unaccounted for water would be mainly chargeable to earth ditches, I began the inquiry in that direction. It was however, discovered, that although important ones, they were not the chief factors of the problem. This discovery prompted a more general and extensive inquiry than was at the outset contemplated. The inquiry was then started on other lines, and, although by reason of many other demands on my time, it is not by any means complete, it shows that in some of the cemented ditches, too much of the water is unaccounted for, and that some effort to have this unaccounted for water, pay its just proportion of the cost of distribution, should be made. The gate question is of some importance, and should have early attention. I may say here, that this question was brought up more than once by the late Mr. E. Browning, and later by Mr. Pierotti. Having agreed with Mr. Browning that I would collaborate with him in devising a suitable gate, we jointly gave the matter some attention, but on his resigning the office of director, the matter was dropped, until in the investigation of the unaccounted-for water, I find such a bewildering variety of sizes and shapes of gates, that the matter again looms up as one that demands more attention than it has hereof received. As there are by-laws and resolutions of the Board of Directors, that clearly specify gate dimensions, one can but wonder why both are ignored. I may state here, that such attention as I have been able to give to this subject points to an entirely different them over too great a section of try. The company could maintain extra zanjeros on each side, and money. When, where and in what city was the loss sustained by the company? The speaker then showed two borate maps, giving the amount ference between the water delivery to the zanjeros, and the amount deli- to stockholders, during each day five months in question. At in the maps this difference was at others it was small; again it fling. Why was this? He had moreover, that the loss was no greatest in the earthen ditches might have been supposed. This was largest along some of the ditches. The ferreting out of tha had provided him amusement his spare hours the past summer was not going to give the na- those stockholders who were sho- the diagram to be the beneficial this loss to the company. This take up too much time. But any holder could go to the books who was getting the water, or by referring to the maps co- where the water went. The something wrong.

The end of this, the third dry year, finds us in such good condition, that felicitations all around are, I think, justifiable. The financial standing of the company has not only been maintained but continuously improved, and at least one vexatious suit at law disposed of by mutual agreement between the Bixby estate and yourselves, the terms of which are favorable to you. There has also been arranged, between the S. A. V. I. Co. and your company a formal offensive and defensive alliance, under which some good work has been undertaken, which, if intelligently prosecuted, will not only further secure, but materially increase, your supply of water. On account of threatened encroachments upon your supply of water, by the diversions contemplated by the Newberry syndicate, the directors of the two companies (the S. A. V. I. Co. and the A. U. W. Co.) decided to put into the same field a corps of engineers to procure information for use of the joint companies. The report of these engineers is not yet completed, and must therefore be passed on to the incoming Board of Directors, but in view of the complete absence from your file of such information as would be useful in a suit at law, I earnestly recommend a continuance of these investigations at reasonably short intervals. In order to fortify the position of the two companies, the two Boards of Directors concluded that the acquisition of two or three pieces of property near to and above the headworks of the canal was imperative, and thereupon commenced a series of negotiations that have led to the purgease of a small tract of land at Bed Roe canyon, from one Vistero, and a tract it Rincon from Daniel Durkee. This land, partly river bottom (the middle of the river being one of its foundations for three miles), and having a liberal water right, is a valuable asset, and its care will demand more orderly businesslike and persistent attention than has been accorded to any of your affairs during many bygone years; in fact this, and all of your other affairs, demand a careful supervision and management, that Board of Directors can only provide through the agency of a responsible manager. Outside of this report I have something to present, which will I, think, convey to your minds more clearly than would pages of writing, the urgent need of other than a directorate management. The physical condition of your canals and laterals have been much improved during this year, many decayed wood gates have been displaced by cement structures, many road and street crossings with also been similarly dealt with, four important overchutes have been renewed, and 20,405 feet (a little over 3.864 miles) of cement canals and pipe line has been laid. These 20,405 ft. dispose of 22,405 feet of earth canals and many leaky gates and drops. In addition to the above-named work, there has been constructed at the fill on the site of old flume No. 12 a capacious underchute, and a substantial flume which fully assures the safety of that fill. This last named piece of work was rendered necessary by the acts of property owners in the North Anaheim district in turning the waters of an extent having agreed with Mr. Brownling that I would collaborate with him in devising a suitable gate, we jointly gave the matter some attention, but on his resigning the office of director, the matter was dropped, until in the investigation of the unaccounted-for water, I find such a bewildering variety of sizes and shapes of gates, that the matter again looms up as one that demands more attention than it has herefore received. As there are by-laws and resolutions of the Board of Directors, that clearly specify gate dimensions, one can but wonder why both are ignored. I may state here, that such attention as I have been able to give to this subject, points to an entirely different style of gate than that described in the by-laws. I find that many stockholders are like myself, deeply interested in the reservoir question, therefore just a word on that subject. While no one more fully appreciates the importance of this question, I am persuaded that a securing of the sites for these is all that should be done, until you are prepared to undertake the work of construction in a more business-like way than that suggested by some who possess little, if any, information on such matters. In this connection, I direct your attention to the fact, that the only estimate that you have of the cost of construction, of either of the two reservoirs in contemplation, was made for the purpose of enlisting capital into a bond-purchasing scheme, and most of you know that that means, from a big block of bonds, a very little money, a half-done job, and the other fellow carrying off the sack. Now what I wish to urge is, that you go quickly into a securing and saving of the water that you can bring to ditches, by the facilities already provided, and slowly into the scheme of providing storage room for water, that you cannot readily carry to that storage room with present facilities. The large flumes will soon require a general overhauling; some of them require attention now. The gulch under No. 8 is washed out in the center to about the level of the bottom of the piers. A rain of any consequence would clean it out to a point below the base of the piers. This was only discovered, on a recent inspection, by myself and Mr. Sherwood, when remedial measures that should be applied were referred to the superintendent. The trestwork of these flumes is held together with only nails and spikes, whereas bolts ought to have been used. The result is that the ends of nearly all of the bracing are so much split and shaken, that their effective binding strength is already greatly diminished. This should be remedied, and the wood-work well painted within the year. To direct your attention to all that should be done, would be to extend this paper to an unreasonable length. Therefore (as work rather than writing or talking, is my own motto), I prefer to present the most important part of my report in a diagrammatic form. Having seen and considered this, I think that all hands should, and probably will adopt my motto,"Work rather than talk," regardless of how poorly you can do the first, or how well the last. Respectfully, W. J. FAY. After completing the reading of the report, Mr. Fay showed by the maps and charts the amount of water delivered to the zanjeros in the Anaheim and North Anaheim districts, the amount of water delivered to shareholders, and the loss during the five months referred to. The attention of the shareholders was first directed to five charts, each containing six horizontal markings, three having agreed with Mr. Brownling that I would collaborate with him in devising a suitable gate, we jointly gave the matter some attention, but on his resigning the office of director, the matter was dropped, until in the investigation of the unaccounted-for water, I find such a bewildering variety of sizes and shapes of gates, that the matter again looms up as one that demands more attention than it has herefore received.

The benefits resulting from copious winter irrigation, so widely and wisely practiced during the winter of 1898-99 ought surely to induce a continuance of that practice. An observed tendency to wait for the clouds to roll in and pour out the precious juice, leads me to advise that you accompany your prayers for rain by very liberal use of water, while it is both abundant and cheap. After a careful observation of the lands, irrigated and proposed to be irrigated, by water taken from the river at several points above your intake, the directors of the A. U. W. Co., and the S. A. V. I. Co., concluded to initiate what may be called a compromise and dismissal movement, between the companies and a number of the defendants in what is known as the Jurupa suit, whereby that protracted and cumbrous affair may be simplified and abbreviated. A plan of action has been prepared, gates have been displaced by cement structures, many road and street crossings have also been similarly dealt with, four important overchutes have been renewed, and 20,405 feet (a little over 3.864 miles) of cement canals and pipe line has been laid. These 20,405 ft. dispose of 22,405 feet of earth canals and many leaky gates and drops. In addition to the above-named work, there has been constructed at the fill on the site of old flume No. 12 a capacious underchute, and a substantial flume which fully assures the safety of that fill. This last named piece of work was rendered necessary by the acts of property owners in the North Anaheim district in turning the waters of an extensive drainage area into what was but an insignificant draw from a limited watershed. A very small amount of the spirit of justice and do-as-you-would-be done-by, would have prompted those owners (most of whom are stockholders in this company) to notify the company and offer to bear a reasonable part of the cost of work which their work entailed. During the short water period of 1898, an equitable division of the water, between the S. A. V. I. Co., and the A. U. W. Co., was difficult, and caused a waste of labor, a loss to the A. U. W. Co., of some water by seepage after delivery to it, and created some friction among the agents of the two companies. To obviate these difficulties and save the water, a change of location and elevation, and channel, leading to the division gate, was devised, and the gate so placed upon adjustment, after settlement in the sand, divided the water accurately, to the great satisfaction of all concerned, and materially reduced the leakage. It is among the things hoped for, that not very remote future will show a permanent cement-work gate, constructed on these lines. The benefits resulting from copious winter irrigation, so widely and wisely practiced during the winter of 1898-99 ought surely to induce a continuance of that practice. An observed tendency to wait for the clouds to roll in and pour out the precious juice, leads me to advise that you accompany your prayers for rain by very liberal use of water, while it is both abundant and cheap.

A plan of action has been prepared, report in this report is seen and considered this; I think that all hands should, and probably will, adopt my motto,"Work rather than talk," regardless of how poorly you can do the first, or how well the last. Respectfully, W. J. FAY. After completing the reading of the report, Mr. Fay showed by the maps and charts the amount of water delivered to the zanjeros in the Anaheim and North Anaheim districts, the amount of water delivered to shareholders, and the loss, during five months referred to. The attention of the shareholders was first directed to five charts, each containing six horizontal markings, three for the North Anaheim side and three for Anaheim. The first marking represented the amount of water delivered to the zanjeros; the second, considerably shorter than the first, represented the amount actually delivered to the shareholders, and the third, the shortest of the lot, the loss to the company. The explanation of each was followed with close attention by the shareholders. The speaker said that he had allowed for 50 per cent of loss to legitimate causes, viz., to evaporation, seepage and leaky gates. The loss represented by the diagrams was minus this quantity. During the month of May the loss to the company aggregated $878.40. In 'June the loss was $1,209. The June diagram showed the amount of water run to waste, which was insignificant. In North Anaheim the water ran to waste during seven 12-hour days; in Anaheim, only six hours during the entire month. In July the loss was $652. This lessening in the loss was attributable in large part, he said, to the fact that the zanjeros knew that "a chiel was among them taking notes." In August the loss was $787. In September the volume of water in the river showed an increase. The nights were getting longer, and there was less evaporation during the day time. The loss in this month was $691. The total loss during the five months amounted to $4217.40. This did not include the 50 per cent of loss attributable to the legitimate causes referred to. There was one or two ways of accounting for a portion of this loss. One was the lack of oversight and carelessness of the zanjeros whose labors in delivering water to the stockholders take Drying preparation for dry catarrh; they dry which adheres to the mosep causing a far more severe ordinary form of cataract ing inhalants, fumes sighs used easily and pleasantly mailed for 10 cents.

NUMBER 19 On over too great a section of countries the company could maintain two zanjeros on each side, and save money. When, where and in what ditches the loss sustained by the company? The speaker then showed two elarate maps, giving the amount of difference between the water delivered to the zanjeros, and the amount delivered stockholders, during each day of the months in question. At points the maps this difference was large; others it was small; again it was tring. Why was this? He had found, thereover, that the loss was not the greatest in the earthen ditches, as have been supposed. The loss is largest along some of the cement ditches. The ferreting out of this loss provided him amusement during spare hours the past summer. He was not going to give the names of the stockholders who were shown by the diagram to be the beneficiaries of loss to the company. This would take up too much time. But any shareder could go to the books and see who is getting the water, and then referring to the maps could tell here the water went. There was something wrong. The matter should be run down, and the proper way to do this was for a competent manager to be employed by the company, to give this atter, as well as others pressing for attention, his undivided attention. He had been abroad in the land taking measurements during the summer. He had found in one instance a stream of 72 inches being delivered to a man who was charged with 50 inches. Another irrigator was being delivered 98 inches, and charged with 50; another, with 120 inches, and charged with 100 inches. In one case he had discovered the irrigator being delivered 180 inches, and charged with 100 inches. He was not going to give any names; but something ought to be done to VAST IRRIGATION WORKS. Yet Despite the Irrigated Area of India, Millions are Starving Through Lack of Water. [CONTRIBUTED TO THE GAZETTE.] India is again confronted with the misery of a great famine, and England, even with a disastrous war in South Africa upon her hands, will have to stretch forth a strong arm to help the suffering millions of her far Eastern peninsula. Over 50,000,000 souls are now reported to be affected by the famine, and with the famine area rapidly expanding. A London dispatch states that the sum of $8,700,000 will be expended on "relief works," and that already over 3,000,000 persons are receiving relief. Water, or rather its lack, is the cause of the affliction. This year both the monsoons and the winter rains failed and left the earth parched and dry for months. Yet the English by their public works in India, and their great irrigation projects, have vastly added to the producing capacity of the country, and have greatly ameliorated the natural condition of these natives. The products from irrigation for last year, according to the Indian official figures, amounted to 450,000,000 rupees. India includes within her borders the highest mountains in the world and some of the mightiest rivers and greatest plains. The great Himalayan range, 1500 miles long, lying across the northern border, shuts out the rest of Asia. Mount Everest, the highest peak in the world, pierces the sky 29,002 feet above the tides, while peaks over 20,000 feet elevation abound in all parts of the range. There are numerous well-worn trails leading from India across the Himalayas through Kashmeer and Nepal into Thibet and China, and the passes on these are from 16,000 to 19,000 feet high. In making such a journey no trails for several days remains WOULD SMASH HIS NCSE. The Fatherly Advice Given by Joseph Ganahl to His Neighbor Hickman. Jos. Ganahl of East street was the warmest man in town a day or two ago, when, as he descended the stairs leading to the water office, he encountered his neighbor, J. Hickman, after an excited conference between the two gentlemen before the water board. Hickman had showed up earlier in the day with a chip on his shoulder, figuratively speaking, and in addressing the board had charged Zanjero Brunworth with neglect of duty, along with a number of other delinquencies, consequent upon a beautiful flooding of his place some nights before, when the water which the zanjero sought to run to Ganahl's place found Hickman's gates open, and running in, had overflooded the farm from one end to the other. The misunderstanding between the two gentlemen has already appeared in print, but the "dressing down" which Ganahl later on handed Hickman is a new story. It seems that Brunworth had informed Hickman, as is customary in such cases, that he would deliver the water to him on a certain day. According to the rule, when irrigators are notified by the zanjero that water is to be delivered to them on a certain day, they proceed to make preparations for it: although, should an irrigator living lower down on the ditch (this fact giving him the prior right to the water) be also notified that he will be served with water on the same day, the upper irrigator is supposed to keep his gates closed until further advice from the zanjero relative to the exact hour when he may expect to receive the stream. This latter precaution Hickman, it appears, failed to observe, and the natural result was that his place was flooded with a big head of water which should have reached Ganahl's place. His He had been abroad in the land taking measurements during the summer. He had found in one instance a stream 72 inches being delivered to a man who was charged with 50 inches. Another irrigator was being delivered 98 inches, and charged with 50; another, with 120 inches, and charged with 100 inches. In one case he had discovered the irrigator being delivered with 180 inches, and charged with 100 inches. He was not going to give any names; but something ought to be done to check this evil. The evil was susceptible of being dug up and exposed. It was the most marvelous condition of affairs he had ever seen in a civilized community. The stockholders treat the company as though it were a corporation going to skin them. The company is, in truth, their own business, yet they give such scant attention to its affairs that, even at their annual meeting, men talked to a stack of dumies represented by a pile of proxies on the Secretary's table. It was disgraceful. This condition was in great part attributable to the lack of interest taken by the stockholders in the affairs of the company—their own affairs. At his conclusion he was heartily applauded by the shareholders present. Mr. Staley arose and referring to the President's elaborate review of a subject that concerned every stockholder, observed that it had been his experience that the water in the ditches showed a difference in its volume at different times during the day. It was largest in the morning, and decreased toward the middle of the day, owing to evaporation, and began to rise again in the latter part of the afternoon. He desired to be informed whether the measurements of the President had been made with reference to this fact. Mr. Fay replied that this matter had been, of course, kept in view. He added that he had been surprised at the small amount of loss in the main ditch. It was comparatively insignificant as against the loss sustained by the company in the smaller ditches. Mr. Gilman said that he had been using water ever since the district was started, and it was almost unknown that the zanjeros were ever correct in measuring water. He had heard it said time and again that an honest zanjero could not hold his position 15 days. Everyone knew that certain stockholders were delivered too much water, yet there had never been any one in authority to point it out and demand reform of the evil. Elect honest Directors, he said, and you will have honest zanjeros. Mr. Chapman moved that the President's report be received and filed, and printed; and the thanks of the stockholders be tendered him therefore. The chair—I don't want any thanks, gentlemen. The question is that the report be spread upon the minutes. Are you ready for the question? Mr. Chapman arose and said the President was due the thanks of the stockholders for his report, but the chair put the question as stated by him. India includes within her borders the highest mountains in the world and some of the mightiest rivers and greatest plains. The great Himalayan range, 1500 miles long, lying across the northern border, shuts out the rest of Asia. Mount Everest, the highest peak in the world, pierces the sky 29,002 feet above the tides, while peaks over 20,000 feet elevation abound in all parts of the range. There are numerous well-worn trails leading from India across the Himalayas through Kashmeer and Nepal into Thibet and China, and the passes on these are from 16,000 to 19,000 feet high. In making such a journey the traveller for several days remains above 16,000 feet altitude. Only one pass is as low as 16,400 feet. The historic Ganges, the Indus and Brahmaputra are the three great rivers of India. These, with their affluents, drain an area of nearly 900,000 square miles. Their waters are largely used for irrigation, constituting in reality the life blood of much of the country. The flood discharges of these great streams are enormous. The Ganges alone, in flood, may discharge 1,350,000 cubic feet per second. India's rainfall, which is accountable for this immense volume of water, comes exclusively from evaporation from the Indian ocean and the bays on either side of the peninsula. The distribution of this rainfall is extremely varied, ranging from a couple of inches a year, or in some sections practically nothing, to over 600 inches, which falls in a limited area in Assam. At Chara Pungi, Assam, the maximum rainfall of the world is reached in an average annual precipitation of 363 inches, while at this place in 1861 30 inches fell in 24 hours and 305 inches fell during that year. These figures can be appreciated when it is remembered that the annual rainfall in the Atlantic States on the American seaboard, is from 35 to 45 inches, and that in the West farming is conducted without irrigation on as low an annual rainfall as 15 or 16 inches. The irrigation works of India are the vastest in the world, watering over 20,000,000 acres of very fertile soil. The government has entire control over all sources of water supply, and so exercises it as to make it the greatest benefit to the community at large. Each province has a separate department known as the irrigation branch, at the head of which is a chief engineer, while over all the chief engineers are an inspector-general of irrigation. The Indian government is greatly in favor of the extension of irrigation works. It fosters use of irrigation waters by placing the water rates very low or by even giving the water away in years of scarcity. The Indian irrigation works have generally been of the most substantial and indestructible character, of solid masonry and great strength. In some instances canals of immense volumes of water are carried clear over other rivers. There are in India two classes of irrigation works which may be termed productive and protective works. In general, protective works have been constructed as a protection against famine, such as now stares India in the face, and they act in the amelioration of such disasters in two ways. First, they are constructed during famine times to give employment to the people and furnish them money and food for their sustenance; and second, after their construction they are expected to furnish protection against future famines in those districts. Most of these protective works consist of storage reservoirs, but they have been constructed separately and they Hickman asked what those words were. Ganahl replied that he would not think of uttering such words. "And it is a good thing for you that I was not present when you used those words," continued Ganahl. "Why so?" inquired Hickman. "Because I would have smashed your nose!" retorted Ganahl, as he shook his clenched fist in his neighbor's face. Hickman wanted no more palaver, and drove off. Fatal Accident. Jacob Baker, aged seventy-seven, a well-known resident of Garden Grove, was the victim of an accident Wednes- Important Water Suit. The long-standing controversy over the water of the North Chino water system has at last culminated in a suit which was filed in San Bernardino last week. The plaintiffs are C. C. Johnson, of Pomona, and about twenty landowners, while the defendants are Richard Gird, the San Francisco Savings Union, Easton, Eldridge & Co., Chino Estate Co., and in fact all who hold equities in the property. The plaintiffs claim that certain amounts of water were sold to them and became appurtenant to their lands, and ask the judgment of the court that this water be declared appurtenant to the land, and the defendants be compelled to furnish the same through their pipe lines. These sales of water were made years ago when the wells were flowing, and when it was supposed that they would always flow. Since the dry seasons have commenced the wells have ceased flowing, and the question now arises as to whether Mr. Gird or his assignees will be compelled to pump water from the wells to supply the purchasers, or whether the rights of the purchasers extend only to the natural flow. The suit will bring out some nice points of water law. Drying preparations simply develop dry catarrh; they dry up the secretions, which adhere to the membrane and decompose, causing a far more serious trouble than the ordinary form of catarrh. Avoid all drying inhalants, fumes, smokes and sniffs and use that which cleanses, soothes and heals. Ely's Cream Balm is such a remedy and will cure catarrh or cold in the head easily and pleasantly.

There are in India two classes of irrigation works which may be termed productive and protective works. In general, protective works have been constructed as a protection against famine, such as now stares India in the face, and they act in the amelioration of such disasters in two ways. First, they are constructed during famine times to give employment to the people and furnish them money and food for their sustenance; and second, after their construction they are expected to furnish protection against future famines in those districts. Mest of these protective works consist of storage reservoirs, but they have been constructed in regions semi-arid, and they have generally proven financial failures, while the so-called "productive" works have earned good interest on the investment. From all of which we can learn a lesson applicable to America's arid West. The productive works have been constructed in arid regions so barren and devoid of water that nobody could live there to produce crops of any sort without irrigation, therefore those who immigrated to the country were compelled to use the water and make the works do full duty. On the other hand the protective works have been built in semi-arid regions where crops can often be raised under the natural rainfall, so that the works have been in entire disuse through some seasons. Anywhere in our arid West, where irrigation works can be constructed, it is reasonable to suppose, therefore, judging from analogy, that when a sufficient population settles below them, the works will be called upon to supply their full capacity, and if they have been carefully planned and estimated for, economically constructed and administered under a proper system, they should return fair interest on the original outlay. It has been in our semi-humid region of the United States, where there are naturally good crops opee in several years, that hard times have fallen the hardest, but it is also here, judging from Indian experience, that irrigation works would pay least, because they would not be continuously used.

Jacob Baker, aged seventy-seven, a well-known resident of Garden Grove, was the victim of an accident Wednesday afternoon of last week, which resulted in his death a few hours later. Baker was driving a team attached to a mowing machine, and either stopped to arrange some part of the machinery and was caught by the horses starting, or fell from the machine while in motion. Coming in contact with the knives he had one of his legs mangled. He also sustained cuts and bruises on the other leg and various parts of the body. A surgeon was summoned and as the only hope of saving the man's life, it was decided to amputate the leg, which operation was at once performed, but death ensued a few hours later. The funeral services were held at the Grove on Friday. The remains were sent to Eaton Rapids, Mich., for interment. State Convention. Maj. Frank McLaughlin, chairman of the Republican State Central Committee, has made the announcement that he intends to call the committee together early in March for the purpose of arranging for the State convention and issuing a call for the election of delegates to the national convention. The plan to hold an early convention is in accordance with the expressed desire of the National Congressional Committee, which has asked that the opening of the campaign in California should not be delayed longer than is necessary.
