COMPANY E MUSTERED IN. Interesting Exercises of the Occasion, at the Opera-house, on Saturday Evening. Anaheim's new military company was mustered into the Seventh regiment on Saturday evening. Fifty-six young men of the town and vicinity subscribed to the oath and were made members of the company, which will be known as Company E, Seventh regiment, First brigade, N. G. C. Twelve years ago the first military company organized here was mustered into the National Guard. After a number of years of service it was some four years ago mustered out of the militia. Interest in the organization had subsided to the extent that the percentage of attendance at drills fell below the minimum figure, and before the boys realized the gravity of the situation Governor Budd had them mustered out of the service. The company went to Santa Paula, yet when the regiment was ordered out two years ago during the war with Spain the Ventura county boys failed to put the full complement of men into the field, and many of the members of the old company had to be called upon to fill out their ranks. After the return of the Santa Paula company from the Presidio it went out of the service, together with the company stationed at the town of Ventura. Since that time a spirited rivalry has existed among a number of the towns of Southern California to secure the location in their communities of a company. Anaheim and Santa Monica were until recently neck-and-neck in the race for one of these. A fortnight ago Brigadier-General Last, commanding the First brigade, decided in favor of Anaheim as against Santa Monica. The other of the two companies it is understood will be located at Los Angeles, an energetic contest being waged by the citizens of that city for that honor. The officer having charge of the muster-in of the new company was Major J. Wallace F. Diss, who fifteen years ago was one of the bright young men upon the San Francisco Examiner. Major Diss saw a year's service in the Philippines with a battery of artillery, and acquitted himself with splendid valor on the field of battle. He is recognized as one of the most efficient officers in the service, and he is also personally a very agreeable young gen- of California; that they would uphold the laws of the commonwealth and obey the commands of their superior officers. Major Diss then declared a short recess for the purpose of electing the officers of the company. The following were elected: Fred Ahlborn, Captain; Charles Fay, First Lieutenant; Tom Johnson, Second Lieutenant. There was no contest for either office, and each man was elected by acclamation. They were loudly cheered in turn by the members of the company. Major Diss announced that the newly elected officers would report to Colonel Berry for examination and qualification for their offices on Tuesday, May 1st. This concluded the exercises and the meeting adjourned. Captain Finley proposed three cheers for General Last, which were given with a tiger and waving of hats. Similar cheers were given for Colonel Berry, Major Diss and the new company. Then the home boys retaliated, and proposed three cheers for Captain Finley, which were given with a will, as well as three cheers for Company L. Captain Ahlborn announced that a supper would be spread for all present in the lower hall, and all hands were invited down into the banquet-room. An elaborate collation had been prepared by Caterier Kistler, and a very enjoyable hour ensued in the discussion of the viands. At the conclusion of the banquet General Last and his staff were entertained by numerous friends at a down-town restaurant. It was past midnight when the visiting officers were escorted to their hotel. They were warm in their praises of the new company, which they said was composed of as fine material as they ever saw, and they referred in terms of commendation to the officers of the new company. They departed for their homes on Sunday morning. Major Diss was, as has been stated, a number of years ago a prominent member of the staff of the Examiner. Along with "Blinker" Murphy, Jim Witte, Ike Allen and other newspaper men who have since risen to national reputation, he contributed in no small degree to the daily preparation of that newspaper. During the boom he came south, and was later elected Clerk of San Bernardino county. When the war with Spain came on he resigned his office and tendered his services to the artillery, in which branch of the army he was made a captain. He was with his battery to Manila. WHAT AILS WALNUT TREES? Small Nuts Are Said to Be Dropping Badly—Wire Worms on New Potatoes—Daylight Fumigation—Picnic at Durkeeville. At the meeting of the Farmers' club at George A. Hunter's residence on Monday afternoon reports were made by a number of walnut growers that the indications for the coming crop were anything but favorable. The pollen blossoms seem for some reason or other to have failed, and where trees should have thousands of them they can in many cases be numbered by the dozen. The absence of the necessary pollen to produce the young nuts has therefore resulted in a great diminution of the setting, and in many instances where the young nuts should have formed in clusters the ground shows where many of them have fallen after attaining the size of a cranberry. On some twigs where as many as three or four nuts had set all but a single one have fallen, and these fall to the ground at the slightest touch. The pollen blossoms, which should be as large as one's middle finger, are found in numerous instances to be dried and shriveled up, after attaining the size of a small pea, being elongated in shape, perfectly dry, and black in color. Many of the trees throughout the valley have put forth leaves luxuriantly, forming beautiful objects in the landscape, while trees alongside of them have not leaved out to any appreciable extent. This is true of softshells as well as hardshells, or orchards abundantly irrigated as well as those not so plentifully watered. The reason for the phenomenon seems to be past finding out. On some branches the small clusters of nuts shows one to have attained quite a good size, while others alongside of it are stunted in growth and sickly in appearance. The smaller nuts fall off at the merest touch, and in many cases even larger ones have not sufficient strength to save them from falling to the ground. The immediate cause is the absence of pollen to fructify the tree, but what has caused the failure of the blossoms is a subject that was discussed with much interest by the members of the club, without arriving at any satisfactory conclusion. Mr. Hunter reported that his new potatoes were infested in a number of cases with wire worms. He noticed some days ago on going through the patch that some of the vines showed The officer having charge of the muster-in of the new company was Major J. Wallace F. Diss, who fifteen years ago was one of the bright young men upon the San Francisco Examiner. Major Diss saw a year's service in the Philippines with a battery of artillery, and acquitted himself with splendid valor on the field of battle. He is recognized as one of the most efficient officers in the service, and he is also personally a very agreeable young gentleman. He is a relative of former Supervisor Yoch of this county. Major Diss arrived on Saturday afternoon on the 3 o'clock train and proceeded to the City Hall, where the members of the company took the oath and were sworn into the service by squads. The boys were slow in coming in, for while 70 had signed the preliminary roll not more than half that number had been enrolled at 8 o'clock in the evening. Four of the boys were rejected by Dr. Johnston, the examining physician. General Last, accompanied by Colonel Berry, and L. Pfeiffer, Clerk of San Bernardino county (who was the guest of the General), arrived on the 6 o'clock train. They were met at the depot by Fred Ahlborn, who had been selected as Captain by the new company; Herman Dickel, who has taken an active interest in securing the company for our city, and other gentlemen, and were driven to the Commercial hotel. At half-past 8 o'clock the City Hall was filled with citizens of the community. While Major Diss was busily engaged in enrolling the guardsmen, General Last and Colonel Berry, and Captain Finley of Company L of Santa Ana, who had come over with a detachment of 40 members of his company to attend the exercises, were present in the hall. The distinguished officers were presented by Mr. Dickel to the citizens, who expressed great pleasure at meeting with them and gave voice to the hope that the new company would be a credit to the city and to the regiment. General Last is an officer of commanding presence, dignified in his bearing, and he took an acute interest in the work of the mustering officer seated at a table before him. "How many guardsmen have you mustered in, General?" he was asked. "Only 37 so far, I believe," he replied, and his countenance seemed to be overspread with doubt whether the minimum of 50 militiamen would be secured. The officers were in full uniform and carried their side arms. General Last carried in one hand a pair of white mousquitaire gloves, and with the other secured a neckhold on a fragrant cigar. The officers were engaged in conversation by a number of their newly made friends while Major Diss was occupied in making out the enrollment papers. A squad of six recruits had affixed their signatures to the enrollment papers, their ages and places of birth both dates being noted when the homes on Sunday morning. Major Diss was, as has been stated, a number of years ago a prominent member of the staff of the Examiner. Along with "Blinker" Murphy, Jim Witte, Ike Allen and other newspaper men who have since risen to national reputation, he contributed in no small degree to the daily preparation of that newspaper. During the boom he came south, and was later elected Clerk of San Bernardino county. When the war with Spain came on he resigned his office and tendered his services to the artillery, in which branch of the army he was made a captain. He was ordered with his battery to Manila, and participated in considerable fighting during a year's campaign. His battery was ordered out one night in a drenching rain and thunder-storm, when a bolt of lightning struck a point in close proximity to the magazine. A great explosion was narrowly averted. The battery went into action a mile away, and the attacking force of Filipinos was dispersed with heavy loss. Colonel Berry was in 1876 for six weeks a resident of Anaheim. He lived in the house now occupied by E.T. East. He came here for the benefit of the health of his wife's sister, who was an invalid, but in the genial climate of this section she entirely recovered her health. He later went to San Diego, where he edited for a number of years the Union of that city. Colonel Berry is a graceful as well as forceful writer, and during his editorial management of the Union that paper came to be regarded as one of the foremost journals of the State. He was with the Seventh regiment at the Presidio two years ago, and was one of the most popular officers in the service. General Last is a well-known wholesale merchant of the Angelic city, and made many friends during his short sojourn in Anaheim. He will always find a warm welcome, together with the officers of his staff, on his return to this city. Census Report. E.B. Merritt has completed the taking of the census for the Anaheim school district. He finds children between the ages of 5 and 17 years to the following number: Boys, 453; girls, 271; total 724. Under 5 years, 169; total number of children, 893. Last year we had 662 census school children, the gain being thus 62. In 1898 the return was 663. Anaheim is growing. Euchre. Miss Melanie Cahen entertained the Young Folks' Euchre club at progressive euchre on Friday evening last. The parlors were handsomely decorated with red and white roses. Delicious refreshments were served during the evening and an enjoyable time was spent by all present. The first prizes were won by Miss Zeus and Ed Zeus; the second by Miss Zelma Bailey and Fred Backs, and the boobies were carried by Miss Adela Strodthoff and Gus Strodthoff. Incorporated. Articles of incorporation of the Fullerton Masons' Building association have been filed with the Secretary of State. The purpose is to erect a Masonic building at Fullerton, the site considered it a very excellent fertilizer. Mr. Hunter reported that his new potatoes were infested in a number of cases with wire worms. He noticed some days ago on going through the patch that some of the vines showed evidence of decay. On uprooting them he found the young potatoes to be infested with some wire worms which had already punctured what were otherwise very fine specimens of potatoes. The ground had been last year used for an alfalfa patch in which stock were pastured, and it was the opinion of various members that the worms were caused by the presence of the stock. Mr. Korn said that it had been his experience that land plentifully manured would produce wire worms in potatoes. Mr. Fay told of an experience of an English gardener at Denver whose potatoes were similarly affected. He had as a refuge from the manufacture of gas a quantity of lime that had been used in purifying the gas, and he recommended to the gardener the application of a few wagon-loads of this material. The land had become impregnated with alkali by the copious application of water to the adjoining higher lands, and he was of the opinion that the lime would cure the alkali, and perhaps kill the grubs and worms. If applied in sufficient volume it would also clean out the potatoes. The lime which contained a quantity of bi-sulphide of carbon, was applied to the land. It cured the alkali, killed the worms, and an excellent crop of potatoes was the result. He thought if Mr. Hunter could procure some of this material from the Santa Ana gas works, apply it to his potato patch and run upon it a sufficient volume of water to leach it well into the ground, the worms would be destroyed. Mr. Hunter said that he thought he would dig his crop and secure the potatoes which had not yet been touched by the worms. Alex Henry exhibited two splendid specimens of potatoes raised at Heath Hill at Caledonia Grove, where he had not been troubled with the pest. He had several hundred sacks of them. A month ago he could have gotten $1.50 a sack for them; now he won't get a dollar. The question box contained the following questions: (1.) Does our land need more lime? Mr. Korn spoke of the lime offered by Los Alamitos sugar factory for fertilizing purposes, several carloads of which had been purchased by orchardists for application to their grounds. He considered it a very excellent fertilizer. Mr. Hunter said that Mr. Kossert and Mr. Konig had purchased carloads of this lime, which was a refuse of the sugar factory, and were now applying and his countenance seemed to be overspread with doubt whether the minimum of 50 militiamen would be secured. The officers were in full uniform and carried their side arms. General Last carried in one hand a pair of white mousquitaire gloves, and with the other secured a neckhold on a fragrant cigar. The officers were engaged in conversation by a number of their newly made friends while Major Diss was occupied in making out the enrollment papers. A squad of six recruits had affixed their signatures to the enrollment papers, their ages and places of birth and other data being noted, when the Major arose and said in a commanding voice: "Gentlemen will please remove their hats." General Last was the first to uncover, and the order was promptly obeyed by the hundred people in the hall. Major Diss raised his right hand, as did also the recruits, and the guardsman's oath was administered to them. The squad was ordered to the Opera-house, where the muster-in of the company later took place. A line of other guardsmen stepped up one by one and were sworn in. Down in the street, in front of the hall, a detachment of Company L was drawn up at parade rest, waiting to escort the regimental officers to the Opera-house, in the auditorium of which a large number of people assembled. Half the floor room had been cleared for the mustering-in exercises, and seats in the rear of the hall provided accommodation for those who were not compelled to stand. At half-past 9 o'clock Company L's bugler sounded "Attention!" It was the signal for the entrance into the hall of the brigade and regimental officers. The crowd arose to its feet. The officers walked with a military tread to the head of the hall, where the final proceedings of the muster-in were about to begin. The members of the company were lined up by Captain Ahlborn and Charlie Fay, who had been selected as First Lieutenant. As Major Diss called out each one's name the guardsman advanced two paces to the front. Fifty-six members joined the company. With uplifted hands they made oath that they would support the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State Incorporated. Articles of incorporation of the Fullerton Masons' Building association have been filed with the Secretary of State. The purpose is to erect a Masonic building at Fullerton, the site selected being north of the McDermont building. The directors are G. C. Clark, E. R. Amerige, J. F. Davis, E. K.

Mr. Korn spoke of the lime offered by the Los Alamitos sugar factory for fertilizing purposes, several carloads of which had been purchased by orchardists for application to their grounds. He considered it a very excellent fertilizer. Mr. Hunter said that Mr. Kossert and Mr. Konig had purchased carloads of this lime, which was a refuse of the sugar factory, and were now applying it to their orchards. The price he understood was $1 per ton laid down here. He understood the factory made no charge for it, inasmuch as they desired its use by the orchardists as an experiment. There were about ten or fifteen carloads of it for disposal, and he thought it would be an excellent scheme to bring up a number of carloads and apply it to the ground. Mr. Cargill asked concerning its character, and said he would purchase a carload of it. Mr. Fay spoke of the beneficial results of the application of lime to land and said that every tree grower should have read the article recently published in these columns concerning methods of fertilization practiced on Lord Rosebery's Scottish estates. The article appeared originally in the Nineteenth Century of London, and was extensively copied and commented upon in the United States and Europe. It showed the splendid results of the application of lime to the soil; adding that it assisted very materially in the assimilation of other forms of fertilizers. He considered the application of the Los Alamitos lime advantageous to tree growth, and advised that all members procure a quantity of it. (2.) Will it damage the coming crop of oranges to fumigate while the trees are in bloom? Mr. Huntington said that depends upon the quantity of chemicals used if the tree grower would examine red scale and fumigate when the pest were in infancy a less amount of acid would be necessary to destroy them; fact so little need be used that danger to the blossoms would result Later in the season, when the scars were grown, fumigation, even with NEW NUT TREES? To be Dropping Badly New Potatoes—Daytime—Picnic at Keeeville. A lot of the Farmers' club counter's residence on the reports were made walnut growers that for the coming crop it favorable. The pollen for some reason or milded, and where trees thousands of them they was be numbered by the presence of the necessary tree the young nuts has in a great diminution, and in many instances young nuts should be clusters the ground day of them have fallen size of a cranberry. There as many as three set all but a single one these fall to the ground and touch. The pollen should be as large as ever, are found in numerable dried and shriveled by the size of a small ingested in shape, per-black in color. Many throughout the valley have been luxuriantly forming in the landscape, while of them have not leaved associable extent. This is as well as hardshells, abundantly irrigated as it so plentifully watered. The phenomenon seemsinding out. On some small clusters of nuts we attained quite a good others alongside of it are both and sickly in appearance; till nuts fall off at the land in many cases even nuts have not sufficient to them from falling to the immediate cause is the pollen to fructify the has caused the failure of a subject that was disch interest by the membub, without arriving at conclusion. Reported that his new po-fessed in a number of live worms. He noticed on going through the time of the vines showed increased quantity of acid, would be found in many cases to be ineffectual. The best job of fumigation he had ever seen was done in March when the trees were filled with bloom. Many orchardists defer fumigation until such time as the black scale appear, and then fumigate for the red and black pests. This he considered a grave error, for while the black scale were in such cases cleaned out, the red, having attained their full growth, were much more difficult to destroy than in their younger stages earlier in the season. Mr. Cargill was of opinion that unless the fumigators exercised extreme caution in measuring the amount of the chemicals used they would be apt to injure the blossoms and young fruit. Fumigation he said was done at night and often the amount of acids used when there was danger of injuring the blossoms was not accurately determined, and there was consequently danger of injury to the young fruit. He had read in the papers that orchardists at Azusa were fumigating in day time and asked if any one present knew whether that method of fumigation had been proved to be a success. Mr. Huntington said one reason for fumigating at night was because the prevailing coast breezes during the afternoons interfered with the handling of the tents. He did not believe that the actinic rays of light operated disadvantageously to the fumigated trees, as had been held by some fumigators. Six years ago he-fumigated Mr. Cargill's lemon trees during the day time, and he though he had accomplished good work in the destruction of the scale. He believed in daylight fumigation, and would recommend it but for the prevailing coast breezes. In answer to a question by Mr. Cargill, who asked if daylight fumigation were practical in orchards that were protected by windbrakes, Mr. Huntington said that it certainly was. Mr. Henry asked concerning the burning of trees by the fumigators in the early morning hours. Mr. Huntington said this was due to the dampness on the foliage which was burned by the water absorbing the gas on the trees. Mr. Hunter said that if trees were dry and there was no moisture in the air fumigation would not burn them. Mr. Cargill thought that daylight fumigation was a big advantage and said that when next he fumigated his orchard he would treat some of his trees in day time. (3.) What, if anything, is the remedy for wire worms in potatoes? The consensus of opinion was, as has already been stated, that potatoes should not be planted on land that had been heavily manured. An effectual remedy might be the application of the refuse lime from gas works, which would also improve the quality of the potatoes. The club decided to hold its annual picnic at Durkeeville, the recently acquired possession of the water company. above Rincon. The picnic will be held early in June. The party will go by A LITTLE MAN'S LITTLENESS. How Ex-City Clerk Nebelung Broke the Record in Collecting Personal Property Taxes. "Did you hear how Ex-City Clerk Nebelung broke the record in collecting personal property taxes since the election?" asked a prominent business man of the reporter a day or two ago. "You know he got fifteen per cent commission on personal property taxes, but received nothing for collecting taxes on real estate. While he was talking about making a contest for the office, after his defeat at the election, he quietly slipped around and gathered in the whole ball of wax on personal property taxes, and pocketed about $40 or $50, which morally and legally belongs to Merritt, the present occupant of the office." The newspaper man said he hadn’t heard of it. "Well, you see, before the election Nebelung did not do a stroke of the pen in making out the city assessment roll—not a stroke of a pen. This work is supposed to begin the first of March. In his open letter, which he is perhaps sorry now he ever wrote, he said about this matter: "Regarding the office of City Clerk and Ex-officio assessor, the city pays the sum of $30 per month, and $125 for taking and delivering the total assessment of the city each year, which if done correctly and conscientiously, occupies four months’ steady field and office work." Instead of practicing what he preached, this conscientious fellow neglected to give any attention whatever to the matter of preparing the 'total assessment roll of the city' before the election, fearing probably that he might stroke the hair of the voter the wrong way thereby. "But as soon as the ballots were counted, and Nebelung saw he was out of it, he began to collect the personal property assessment, which pays him a commission of 15 per cent for their collection. "This he had no moral, nor do I think he had a legal right to do, and besides it was the smallest act I ever heard of in my life. Nebelung collected the bulk of the personal property tax, pocketed forty or fifty dollars in commissions, which Merritt was morally and legally entitled to, and left the real work of taking the 'total assessment' to his successor," who is now wrestling with the job." Inquiry at the City Hall revealed these statements to be based upon facts. Not a single assessment blank had been filled out for real estate owners, nor for property owners holding personal property taxes.

Francis Newman Skips by the Light of the Moon-Numerous Mourning Creditors. Francis Newman, the Los Angeles street grocer, was being sought yesterday by numerous mourning creditors. He skipped out some days ago, and his wife and children left the day after. Yesterday it was said that Mrs. Newman and the children had left before him. But creditors of the man were painfully aware of the fact that both had gone, and there was no coin of the realm wherewith to pay the bills. Frank Curlew had been in charge of the establishment for some days past, and yesterday said Newman had "flew the coop." There was a stock of about $250 on hand, he said. L. Schorn, of the Olive Milling company, who is one of the heaviest creditors of the concern, took out an attachment before Judge Shanley, and the stock was seized by Copstable Kuebel. Shorn's bill amounted to about $200. It had been felt for some weeks past that Newman was a fakir. He sold goods below cost. There was not a sufficient amount of profit in this sort of business, and so he skipped for pastures new. Late Tuesday night a wagon drawn by two mules was hitched in the lot joining the store. It was filled with a stock of goods and was driven off. It is quite probable that the name "Francis Newman" is an assumed one. Newman claimed to be a native of Australia. Representatives of the Los Angeles wholesale houses with whom Newman had dealings, arrived yesterday afternoon.

He skipped out some days ago, and his wife and children left the day after. Yesterday it was said that Mrs. Newman and the children had left before him. But creditors of the man were painfully aware of the fact that both had gone, and there was no coin of the realm wherewith to pay the bills. Frank Curlew had been in charge of the establishment for some days past, and yesterday said Newman had "flew the coop." There was a stock of about $250 on hand, he said. L. Schorn, of the Olive Milling company, who is one of the heaviest creditors of the concern, took out an attachment before Judge Shanley, and the stock was seized by Copstable Kuebel. Shorn's bill amounted to about $200. It had been felt for some weeks past that Newman was a fakir. He sold goods below cost. There was not a sufficient amount of profit in this sort of business, and so he skipped for pastures new. Late Tuesday night a wagon drawn by two mules was hitched in the lot joining the store. It was filled with a stock of goods and was driven off. It is quite probable that the name "Francis Newman" is an assumed one. Newman claimed to be a native of Australia. Representatives of the Los Angeles wholesale houses with whom Newman had dealings, arrived yesterday afternoon. It was said that Newman's total gill thought that daylight fumigation was a big advantage and said that when next he humigated his orchard he would treat some of his trees in day time. (3.) What, if anything, is the remedy for wire worms in potatoes? The consensus of opinion was, as has already been stated, that potatoes should not be planted on land that had been heavily manured. An effectual remedy might be the application of the refuse lime from gasworks, which would also improve the quality of these potatoes. The club decided to hold its annual picnic at Durkeville, the recently acquired possession of the water company, above Rincon. The picnic will be held early in June. The party will go by way of a special train over the Santa Fe, leaving here about 8:30 o'clock. At Rincon conveyances will take them to the ranch, which will be reached about 9:30. Mr. Durke will prepare a bull's head breakfast, and an unlimited amount of other refreshments will be provided. The party will inspect the water-bearing and oil-bearing lands, and may go as far as Arbondale to see where Boo. Fuller has constructed his ditch tapping the river. Here Fuller diverses a thousand inches of water belonging to the valley irrigators. A number of invitations will be extended non-members of the club with a view to giving all those who have expressed a wish to visit the Durkee ranch an opportunity of doing so. Mrs. Hunter and her daughter, Mrs. Little, served refreshments of strawberries, cake and coffee, which the club made the special order for the ensuing half hour. Thanks were extended the host and hostess for their courtesies andthe club adjourned to meet with Mrs. Strodthoffthe last Monday in May. DECIDUOUS Fruit.

Late Tuesday night a wagon drawn by two mules was hitched in the lot adjoining the store. It was filled with a stock of goods and was driven off. It is quite probable that the name "Francis Newman" is an assumed one. Newman claimed to be a native of Australia. Representatives of the Los Angeles wholesale houses with whom Newman had dealings, arrived yesterday afternoon. It was said that Newman's total indebtedness amounted to $1500. The wholesalers will throw the stock into insolvency, which will take precedence over Schorn's attachment. Probably none of the creditors will get anything, but the wholesalers object to one creditor getting it all. Efforts will be made to arrest Newman. It is believed his wife has gone to Ventura. Deputy Sheriff Bush came over from Santa Ana to collect evidence against Newman and he will probably be apprehended. Death of Mr. Malcolm. Telegrams received from Long Beach on Tuesday morning brought the sad intelligence of the death at that place the night before of Mr. Malcolm, formerly of this city. He had gone to the beach two weeks ago, suffering from a complication of diseases due to heart trouble. His physician was of opinion at the time that the end was not far off. The deceased lived in Anaheim some five months, coming here with his wife from Terminal island. He purchased the Commercial hotel, and was quite successful in business. His health failed, and he resolved to go to the beach, saying that was the only place he could live. Mr. Malcolm had been awarded the wharf privileges at Long Beach, and looked forward to a profitable summer season's trade. His death will be regretted by his numerous friends and acquaintances in this city. More Rain. Forty hundredths of an inch of rain fell on Friday morning last, according to Mr. Dickel's gauge, bringing the total of the season up to 6.69 inches. Last year to date we had 5.44 inches. At Fullerton an inch and a quarter is reported to have fallen, according to Mr. Benchley's gauge. Looking for Oil. A party of local capitalists drove to the Santiago canyon on Sunday on an oil prospect. There are said to be good indications for oil in the canyon, and a company may be formed to put down a well. Concert. The Ladies' Aid society of the Presbyterian church of Fullerton have made arrangements with Prof. Ludwig Thomas of Santa Ana for a concert to be given in aid of the building fund of the church. His musical standing in Santa Ana and Southern California in general is such that a concert under him is sure to be a musical treat. Of vocalists there will be the Misses Chaffee, who are well known here already, and Miss Ida Thorley of Detroit, Mich., who has been spending the winter in California. Here is a deep contralto of unusual depth and sweetness. The instrumental part of the program will be in the hands of J. W. Rice, violinist; Merrill Rice, 'cellist; Miss Bessie Daniels and Prof. Thomas, pianiste; Mr. J. W. Rice has but recently returned from his studies in Chicago, and is now a very thorough violinist with a firm and sure technique and a most beautiful tone. He will play De Beriot's ninth concerto. His brother, Merrill Rice, returned from San Francisco and the East only last week, bringing with him a beautiful new 'cello; he will play Popper's gavotte in D, a bright and characteristic composition. In connection with Prof. Thomas these two gentlemen will play two operatic trios, which alone will be worth double the price of admission. Miss Bessie Daniels, whom all Fullerton knows, is still studying with Prof. Thomas, coming from Hemet to Santa Ana for her lessons. She will play Mendelssohn's "Rondo Capriccioso," a composition which used to be the graduating piece in conservatories. The concert will take place at Chadbourne hall.
