OIL IN LA HABRA RESERVOIR. Water Board Leases the Site for Oil Development Purposes—A $2.50 Assessment. The water board at its meeting on Saturday afternoon leased to J. M. Gardiner of Los Angeles the La Habra reservoir site of 400 acres for oil development purposes. The first year's rental is to be $750 cash. The company is to receive an eighth of all the oil produced, and all water developed upon the tract. The yearly rental, after the first year, is to be $400, and the company is to retain the use of the land for agricultural purposes. Several other bids for the rental of the property were considered, all of them being in executive session. W. C. Eymann offered $600 for the first year's rental: $300 for right of way for a cement ditch through his land northwest of town, $300 cash; and an eighth of the oil produced. Subsequent rental was to be at the rate of $1 per year, the lease to run for twenty years. The company has been trying for some years to get a right of way through Eymann's land for a cement ditch, but considered a payment of $300 for it excessive. The bids were at a former meeting of the board referred to the oil committee, composed of Cargill and Bradford. They recommended the adoption of Gardiner's bid, and the rejection of the others. Gardiner will begin development work in the near future. Gardiner laid the water mains in town two years ago, and is well known hereabout. At the beginning of the meeting Mr. Crowther observed that he had a verbal report to make concerning a matter of interest to the board, but preferred to make it in executive session. After the meeting the Argus-eyed reporter failed to get a neckhold upon what the matter might have the distinction to be. Mr. Cargill reported upon the request of the State Water and Forest association for a donation of funds to assist in the prosecution of the association's work. He had written out a resolution upon the subject, he said, but had left it at home. He reported verbally against the admissibility of the scheme. He asked regarding the gate at Bockman's; the repairing of the road at Moran's, and other matters in the report. Supt. Woodward explained the matters in detail, saying the repairing of the county road at Moran's had been done after the laying of a pipe across the same. The county had furnished the pipe and hauled it, and he laid it and repaired the street afterward. Mr. Pierotti was of opinion that the matter was an advantageous one to the company. The county furnished the pipe, and the company put it in, and leveled off the road afterward. Perhaps the Superintendent was not sufficiently explicit in reporting the character of the work done, but it was allright anyhow. Mr. Crowther said he was not objecting to the outlay as excessive—he simply wanted to know what the work was done for. He was asking for information. Mr. Woodward said it was his intention to make his reports as plain as possible; he desired to show where every dollar of the company's funds were expended. But if his reports were not explicit enough, he was always willing to explain. The report was filed. The Superintendent was instructed to repair the two zanjeros' houses, one at the head of the ditch and the other at Yorba. Both, according to his verbal report, were in bad shape and in need of repairs. One needed seven or eight hundred shakes for the repair of the roof, and the other needed fixing. Mr. Crowther (evidently a trifle suspicious)—You have something in your report here about the repair of the zanjero's house at Yorba, haven't you? Mr. Woodward — There are three zanjeros' houses, you know. My repairs were made on the middle house. The other two are the ones referred to as needing repairs now. Mr. Crowther (his eyes still on the report)—Have you made the repairs at Flume 8, as instructed at the last meeting? Those repairs are necessary, for if we have a heavy rain the flume may be in danger of being washed out. Mr. Woodward — The repairs have all been made. The new work is all in AND SO CARGILL WAS SUED. Butcher Everhardy of Los Angeles Goes to Court About the Hulls' Heads. Furnished the Farmers' Club Picnic at Durkeeville. The picnic of the Farmers' Club at Durkeeville last May is recalled by the filing of a suit by Matt Everhardy, the Los Angeles butcher, against A. H. Cargill of Brookshurst, for the recovery of $31.50 for furnishing the bulls' heads for the picnic. Included in this amount is $20 for the delivery of the heads at Durkeeville. It is this latter amount which Cargill objects to paying: He tendered Everhardy $11.50 in payment of the heads, (which amount was the price agreed to be paid), but Everhardy refused to accept it. The failure of Everhardy to get the heads on the evening train out of Los Angeles is responsible for the trouble. The club had engaged the services of Don David Yorba to officiate at the baking, and the heads were scheduled to arrive at Rineon at 6 o'clock the evening before the day of the picnic. They did not arrive until early next morning. Cargill had been delegated authority to procure the heads, being an experienced man at the business. He entered into an agreement with Everhardy to furnish them, and after telephoning the latter upon the importance of getting the heads upon the train, and being assured everything was all right, had sat himself down to enjoy a moment's smoke at his home, when the telephone bell rang out with a loud alarm. It was Everhardy's voice, at the other end of the line, bewailing the fact that the train had just left and that their stupid driver had failed to get the heads aboard. Everhardy said he would discharge the driver instantly, but what the devil should he do with the heads? Mr. Gregory of the Santa Fe was rung up and the matter laid before him. He could do nothing; he had not an engine in the yard, and was moved to bitter tears at the failure of the heads to reach the depot in time for the train; but the train could not be called back. At the beginning of the meeting Mr. Crowther observed that he had a verbal report to make concerning a matter of interest to the board, but preferred to make it in executive session. After the meeting the Argus-cyed reporter failed to get a neckhold upon what the matter might have the distinction to be. Mr. Cargill reported upon the request of the State Water and Forest association for a donation of funds to assist in the prosecution of the association's work. He had written out a resolution upon the subject, he said, but had left it at home. He reported verbally against the advisability of the scheme, which Mr. Smythe recently lectured about in Backs' hall. He thought it was a good proposition, but the company was debarred by its by-laws from donating funds for such purposes. He thought the stockholders might individually contribute such funds as their finances might permit, but the company could not—the board had no right to do it. The report was accepted and ordered to the file. The report of the Finance committee was submitted as follows: RECIPTS DURING SEPTEMBER, 1900. Balance in hands of Treasurer ... $2,607 40 Deposited by Secretary, water sales ... 1,374 75 North Anaheim ... 631 97 Deposited by Secretary, water sales ... 245 43 Anabeim ... 42 20 Deposited by Secretary, construction ... 4,901 75 Less cash returned consumers ... $39 35 Less cash in hands of Secretary October Ist ... 45 00 Less 60 warrants paid and returned ... $4,817 40 Balance in hands of Treasurer, October Ist ... $555 05 DETAILS OF EXPENDITURES: Ditch expenses ... $793 56 Interest ... $520 60 Treasurer's salary ... 10 00 Sunset Tel.

Bradford, Aug. and Sept. ... 8 00 A. H. Cargill, Sept. ... 4 60 Deficit Balance ... $1,342 26 Mr. Crowther, the watch dog of the treasury, scented something wrong, apparently. He said, while looking over the report: "Would it be in order to ask what this expenditure of $713.65, in the Superintendent's expenses, is for? Is it for construction, repairs, new work, wages or what?" Mr. Chapman (in the chair)—You will see it in detail in the report of the Superintendent lying before you. Mr. Crowther—It may appear to be all right on paper, but I want to know what it is all for. Supt. Woodward—Look at my report, and you will see what the items are for. They are set out there in detail. Mr. Crowther—The amount looks a little large to me. That's why I ask the question. Mr. Bradford—"These items soon count up." He read off several of them. Mr. Pierotti—It costs money to run ditches. It was Everhardy's voice, at the other end of the line, bewailing the fact that the train had just left and that their stupid driver had failed to get the heads aboard. Everhardy said he would discharge the driver instantly, but what the devil should he do with the heads? Mr. Gregory of the Santa Fe was rung up and the matter laid before him. He could do nothing; he had not an engine in the yard, and was moved to bitter tears at the failure of the heads to reach the depot in time for the train; but the train could not be called back. In this awful conjuncture of affairs, Cargill telephoned Everhardy that he must get the heads to the picnic grounds without fail. "Send them in a balloon, if you can't get them down any other way," shouted Cargill through the phone, while the gentle hello girl observed sweetly: "Waiting! Waiting!" Everhardy agreed to dispatch the heads by team, and later telephoned Cargill that his man knew the road only as far as Santa Fe Springs. Could Cargill get a man to meet him there and show him the way to Durkeeville? This Cargill agreed to do. He phoned Jim Gardiner at Fullerton to meet the man at the springs, take them aboard his wagon and hurry with them to the picnic grounds. For this service he agreed to pay $5. "The man will be there at 9 o'clock tonight, and you ought to get them at Durkeeville by midnight," said Cargill. Gardiner's man was at the springs promptly on time, but no one appeared with the heads. He waited two hours and was about returning to his home when, along toward midnight, the Los Angeles man showed up with a jaded pair of horses, which could not go another mile. The heads were taken aboard the new rig, and after an all night's ride, reached Durkeeville at 6 o'clock next morning. At Durkee's matters had been plunged into a state of uncertainty during the night. Don David had met the evening train, and you could have knocked him down with a feather when he learned the heads were not aboard. Surely, he said, 'as he thought the matter over, the boys will send them during the night.' So back to Durkees' he went from the railway station, and put in the night in waiting. At sunup he was about to break camp and return to his home at Yorba, when Gardiner's team showed up. Dave put the heads in the pits promptly, but when the picnickers arrived at 11 o'clock he was the maddest man in seven counties. Senator White and wife were among the picnickers, and a distinguished party of folks from far and near assembled. Cargill had not slept a wink during the night, and on arriving at the grounds, vowed he'd never have another thing to do with any more picnics. To cut a long story short the picnic was a thoroughly enjoyable affair. No one present, except the club's officials, knew of the happenings of the night. All had brought capacious baskets, and Mr. Crowther—It may appear to be all right on paper, but I want to know what it is all for. Supt. Woodward—Look at my report, and you will see what the items are for. They are set out there in detail. Mr. Crowther—The amount looks a little large to me. That's why I ask the question. Mr. Bradford—"These items soon count up." He read off several of them. Mr. Pierotti—It costs money to run ditches. Supt. Woodward—If you want me to run the company for less money, I can do it. Mr. Crowther (testily)—That's not the question. I'm not objecting to the amount expended, but I want to know what it is for. The Directors have a right to inquire about these things; they are elected to look over the company's expense account. They are entitled to it. The matter was finally explained to the satisfaction of all, and the report went to the file. Supt. Woodward's report was read as follows: October 1, 1900. To the Board of Directors of the Anaheim Union Water company—Gentlemen: My expenses for the month of September are as follows: Regular employees.....$450 00 Repairs. To repairing gate at Boeckman's cor. $2 10 To ½ bbl. Gillingham cement...1 80 To repairing gate and drop at the corner of Ostrich farm...$14 00 To repairing 6 gates near Fullerton...6 00 " Kraemer gate and bridge ...5 50 To raising ditch near gate of A. S. Bradford...3 50 To one bbl. cement...3 60 To repairing road crossing at Moran's Company's house above Yorba...2 90 To moving cement, tools and hauling lumber...9 10 To general repairs...$88 24 Moss cleaning.....$50 00 Cleaning Kraemer ditch...13 50 " Orangethorpe ditch...10 00 " Staley and Wagner ditches...10 50 north branch ditch...12 50 south branch ditch...3 20 Anaheim branch ditches...24 50 Cajon ditch...24 50 Anaheim main canal...16 72 By cash received of Maj. Klokke for 4 cement gates...$10 00 By cash received of J. C. Sheppard for willow props...3 00 By cash for ½ bbl. cement at $3.60 of J. M. Woodward...1 80 By cash for old lumber...4 00 Mr. Crowther again thirsted for in-wards for raising the sides of the ditch 6 inches, a distance of 120 feet, at Crowther's corner, so as to enable him to run water on his place across the avenue. Mr. Pierotti said that at the time of Edwards' application for permission to place a pipe across the avenue, he promised not to put the company to further expense. He thought Edwards should be required to stand the cost of raising the sides of the ditch, if they were raised at all. Mr. Crowther was disposed to favor Edwards' request. He was not aware of any promise Edwards had made the company not to put it to any further expenses in order to get water upon his land. Edwards was trying to run water easterly, and needed a little more fall than the present ditch afforded. Mr. Pierotti said Crowther had been a member of the board at the time of the promise by Edwards, but was absent abroad. Mr. Crowther—O, that was during my trip to Paree. However, he thought the expense would not be more than $3.50. Edwards agrees to haul the cement and gravel. The application was referred to the Ditch committee. A petition was received from Theo. Staley, C. Wagner, E. F. C. Klokke, Pendleton, Key and others, asking for the cementing of the ditch on the east line of their property. The same was granted, on condition that they furnish the company deeds to right of way. Brown & Dauser of Fullerton submitted an affidavit reciting the fact that a warrant made payable to them, in the amount of $84.04, had been lost. They asked for a duplicate, and stipulated they would hold the company free from all loss. After discussion, a duplicate warrant was ordered issued to them. City Clerk Merritt wrote notifying the company of the bad condition of the ditch on Vine street, at the corner of Santa Ana. Referred to the Superintendent, with instructions to repair the same immediately. Petition from Richman & Mills of Fullerton, asking that the ditch on their east line be abandoned, water being run in the new cement ditch on Commonwealth avenue. Mr. Crowther objected to abandoning the right of way. The matter was referred to the Ditch committee. The board here went into executive session, and presented the stockholders with a nice present in the shape of a $2.50 assessment. It takes money to run ditches. promptly, but when the picnickers arrived at 11 o'clock he was the maddest man in seven counties. Senator White and wife were among the picnickers, and a distinguished party of folks from far and near assembled. Cargill had not slept a wink during the night, and on arriving at the grounds, vowed he'd never have another thing to do with any more picnics. To cut a long story short the picnic was a thoroughly enjoyable affair. No one present, except the club's officials, knew of the happenings of the night. All had brought capacious baskets, and there was a feast of reason and flow of soul sufficient to satisfy the most captious. But the bullsheads which should have been served at noon failed to appear until late in the afternoon. A few days after the picnic Everhardy sent Cargill a bill for $11.50 for the heads. A week or so later another bill for $20 was sent, for carrying the heads to the springs. This Cargill refused to pay, and the result is a suit brought in a Los Angeles Justice's Court against Cargill for the recovery of the amount. The case will be heard today. John D. Pope, the well known Los Angeles attorney, and Mr. Melrose of this city will appear for Cargill. Fair. The county fair will begin next week, beginning on Wednesday and continuing to and including Saturday. The pavilion will be open for the reception and arrangement of articles for exhibition on Wednesday, and the exhibition will be open to the public on Thursday at 9 o'clock a.m., and will remain open until 6 o'clock p.m. The remaining days of the week. No entry fee will be charged upon any article exhibited at the pavilion, but exhibitors will be required to purchase admission tickets for themselves, as well as those who are in charge of their goods. All entries for exhibits must be made at the office of the secretary on or before Thursday, the 18th inst. Preparations are being made for several local races which promise to be well worth seeing. Notice to Renters—Chino Ranch. Proposals for the leasing of the lands of the Chino Ranch will be received up to and including October 20, 1900. Those wishing to rent must specify the kind of land wanted, whether farming, pasture or dairy lands; also the terms of rental. Dairymen especially desired. Address or call on Chino Land and Water Company, Chino, Cal. oct11-2 CARGILL WAS SUED. Overhardy of Los Angeles Goes About the Bulls’ Heads and the Farmers’ Club Picnic at Durkeeville. One of the Farmers’ Club at last May is recalled by the visit by Matt Everhardy, the butcher, against A. H. Brookshurst, for the recevior for furnishing the bulls’ me picnic. Included in this 20 for the delivery of the Durkeeville. It is this latter such Cargill objects to pay tendered Everhardy $11.50 in the heads, (which amount were agreed to be paid), but refused to accept it. The Overhardy to get the heads being train out of Los Angeles impossible for the trouble. He had engaged the servicesrid Yorba to officiate at the heads were scheduled at Rincon at 6 o’clock the day of the plenic, not arrive until early the night. And been delegated authority on the heads, being an expert at the business. He entered agreement with Everhardy to form, and after telephoning upon the importance of get-ups upon the train, and before everything was all right, myself down to enjoy a moake at his home, when the well rang out with a loud Overhardy’s voice, at the line, bewailing the train had just left and rapid driver had failed to get board. Everhardy said he charge the driver instantly, the devil should he do withory of the Santa Fe was and the matter laid before could do nothing; he had not in the yard, and was moved ears at the failure of the reach the depot in time for out the train could not be NOTES FROM FULLERTON. [From Our Regular Correspondent.] The Fullerton-Riverside Oil company have awarded the contract to drill their first well to contractor James Miller of Los Angeles. The contract calls for work to begin within ten days, and to go 1000 feet and to leave the hole at the bottom with 78 casing, so they can drill deeper if oil is not struck-at that depth. The directors of the company have put up the necessary funds to drill, and they claim to have good territory. The Graham & Loftus Oil company have six producing wells and are drilling three more. Well No. 7 has been abandoned on account of striking large boulders, and in Well No. 9 a large flow of oil was encountered on Friday, which flowed at the rate of 200 barrels a day. The hole has been filled with water to hold the oil back. They expect to drill deeper and strike a large producing well. The Fullerton Oil company struck such a large flow of oil Monday they cannot drill any deeper. They are down 1109 feet and will put the well to pumping Friday. When they struck the large flow Monday the oil spouted 125 feet in the air, and the wind blew oil clear over the Columbia Oil Co.’s derrick. There was great danger from fire, as the oil was flying everywhere. A good many barrels of it ran down the canyon and were lost. This well is a wonder and has been spouting frequently during the past week. The Standard Crude, operating in La Habra valley, are down 400 feet. They have struck water which they are now easing off. They have three strings of casing in the hole and are in a light sand. If they strike oil it will open up thousands of acres of new territory. O. Z. Hubbel will speak in Fullerton Oct. 16. A special train will bring a crowd from Santa Ana, among them the Columbia marching club. Work commenced on the C. Woodward house last week. C. C. Chapman shipped two carloads of oranges East last week. The planing mill got out some new rigs for the Consolidated and Fullerton Consolidated oil companies last week. J. E. Ford went to Los Angeles Thursday to meet his sister, Miss Mag. ARE YOU A DELINQUENT? If You Owe for Public Utilities, You Must Pay Up or Your Light and Water Will Be Cut Out. At the meeting of the City Fathers on Tuesday evening Trustee Schwenckert interposed a vigorous demurrer to the manner in which delinquents were standing off the Marshal in the matter of non-payment of licenses, as well as electric light and water rates. He found, he said, on going over the list that during the month of September just past, $26.55 was owing for water, $17.75 for electric light and $1.25 for license. The total amount owing the city by delinquents amounts to $112.35. One delinquent dated back as far as April of last year. He objected to this unwarranted attempt upon a portion of the city’s residents to procure public utilities without paying for them. Some people, he said, don’t seem to care whether they pay or not, and he therefore suggested that the Marshal be instructed to enforce the ordinance which provides for the shutting off of city water and the turning out of the lights on failure to pay. Marshal Steadman, being called upon to explain this state of affairs, produced his license and water and light books, and showed that but for a single firm many of the old books would be “clean,” all the receipts had been torn out-excepting those of the firm referred to. The individual members of the firm were also shown to be delinquent. A half dozen delinquents were the cause of all the trouble. At the suggestion of Mr. Schwenckert, the Marshal was instructed to check these delinquents up with a sharp turn, and enforce the collection of city rates from them. In cases where lights have not been paid for, they are to be cut out, and water users who fail to pay will have their supply shut off. The board has adopted similar resolves before, but nothing came of them. The delinquents went on in the even tenor of their way, standing off the Marshal and sawing wood. This time it will be different, and “no payee, no lightee.” The Marshal submitted his monthly statement of collections as follows: John Kellenberger has a job in Brea canyon oil wells. O. C. Duryea of Los Angeles, was guest at the Rolio several days later. Mrs. J. B. Neff has returned to home here after an absence of seven weeks in San Francisco and Oakland. Mr. and Mrs. William Falkenstein have rented the Kellogg residence Broadway, and are now at home their friends. W. G. McPherson of Orange was town on Saturday to have a conference with Wm. Crowther relative to matters on the Durkee ranch. Frank Dyer has been assisting Aug. Baum’s barber shop, while Aug. officiated at the Anaheim Bakery doing Peter Syre’s absence at the S.Diego Turnfest. C. H. Nickerson has been quite cally ill at his home in West Anahale for some days past, with an attack fever and heart trouble. His condition yesterday was reported as very low. Gov. Gage speaks upon the political issues of the day at Santa Ana on Sunday evening next, the 13th. A deposition of the Governor’s Anahale friends will go over to hear his address. Charles Federman has on display seasonable line of goods, which are Everhardy's voice, at the end of the line, bewailing the train had just left and rudder driver had failed to get board. Everhardy said he charge the driver instantly, one devil should he do with the story of the Santa Fe was told the matter laid before should do nothing; he had not in the yard, and was movedears at the failure of the reach the depot in time for out the train could not be useful conjuncture of affairs. Sephoned Everhardy that he heads to the picnic without fail. "Send them in if you can't get them down any way," shouted Cargill's phone, while the gentle observed sweetly: "Waiting." Agreed to dispatch the team, and later telephoned on his man knew the road as Santa Fe Springs. Could a man to meet him there, im the way to Durkeeville? Cargill agreed to do. He gardiner at Fullerton to man at the springs, take his wagon and hurry with the picnic grounds. For this agreed to pay $5. Will be there at 9 o'clock did you ought to get them at my midnight," said Cargill. His man was at the springs in time, but no appeared heads. He waited two hours, out returning to his home, going toward midnight, the Losan showed up with a jaded horses, which could not goole. Were taken aboard the new after an all night's ride, Durkee's at 6 o'clock the next kee's matters had been into a state of uncertainty night. Don David had met ing train, and you could have him down with a feather when the heads were not aboard. He said, as he thought the boys will send them night. So back to Durkees' from the railway station, and night in waiting. He was about to break camp to his home at Yorba, when team showed up. At the heads in the pits but when the picnickers arro'clock he was the muddest ten counties. White and wife were among skakers, and a distinguished folks from far and near. Not slept a wink during and on arriving at the town he'd never have another with any more picnics. Long story short the picnic roughly enjoyable affair. No it, except the club's officials, the happenings of the night, bought capacious baskets, and They have struck water which they are now easing off. They have three strings of casing in the hole and are in a light sand. If they strike oil it will open up thousands of acres of new territory. O.Z.Hubbel will speak in Fullerton Oct.16.

J.E.Ford went to Los Angeles Thursday to meet his sister, Miss Maggie Ford, who arrived from Missouri. Mr.Ford has always been a Democrat, but has come out for McKinley. Mr.Young, an employee of the Union Oil company, met with an accident one day last week. While grading a road his leg was broken by a cave-in.

Handsome Paintings. Prof.Carl Zeus has on exhibition at the Backs block, up stairs, a collection of oil paintings which are masterpieces of art. They embrace scenes among forests and mountains of Southern California and in the Yosemite Valley, upon which the Professor has been at work for upwards of a year. Four of the largest paintings are to be shipped next week to Munich to be reproduced in fac-simile aquarell-gravure as a souvenir portfolio of Californian scenery. The four paintings selected for this distinction are: 1.In The Forests of the San Bernardino mountains; Cucamonga mountains in background. 2.Sphinx Rock; early morning; Grayback and San Jacinto mountains in background; view near Squirrel Inn. 3.Panorama view from Inspiration Point; Castle Canyon with Echo Mountain; San Gabriel Valley; Pacific ocean. 4.From the summit of Mt.Lowe; Wilson's Peak and San Bernardino mountains in background. The collection includes twelve aquarell paintings of Yosemite scenes. Prof.Zeus will be pleased to show the paintings to friends free of charge from 9 to 12 and from 2 to 5 daily. Mr.Sherwood's Fire. Mr.Sherwood writes from Fullerton to say that the report current that the fire which destroyed his residence was set by the children is an error. The place where the fire started, he writes, was covered by a large piece of canvas retained by a board at the bottom. The fire must have started by a spark from the chimney falling between the board and the canvas. The whereabouts of children was afterward accounted for, and it is certain that they did not set the fire. One of the boys was coming from the barn, and first saw it. He loudly disclaimed setting it, and the story probably started from that. Democratic Rally. The Democrats held their initial rally of the campaign at Kroeger's hall on Saturday evening. R.H.Norton of Santa Ana delivered an address, and Uncle Billy Spurgeon spoke briefly. They have struck water which they are now easing off.

The whereabouts of the children was afterward accounted for, and it is certain that they did not set the fire. One of the boys was coming from the barn, and first saw it. He loudly disclaimed setting it, and the story probably started from that. Democratic Rally. The Democrats held their initial rally of the campaign at Kroeger's hall on Saturday evening. R. H. Norton of Santa Ana delivered an address, and Uncle Billy Spurgeon spoke briefly. Delegations were present from Buena Park and Orange, and the unerrified whisper things up white for their visitors. The life and drum corps discoursed martial music in front of the hall. Boss McWilliams officiated at the bass drum, pounding it with spirit and precision. Frank Stone manipulated the fife, and Mr. McLellan of the West End gave his attention to the snare drum. We are glad to see our Democratic friends enjoying themselves. There will be a snowstorm next month. Puente Crude. Much comment has been occasioned recently about the Puente Crude Oil company, and rumors of suspension of work and failure have been numerous. According to an officer of the company the corporation has no intention of doing anything but drill for oil until it is found. The company owns in fee 874 acres of land due east of the rich property of the Puente Oil company. One well was abandoned at a depth of 700 feet because the casing collapsed and caught a string of tools in the hole. Wells in that vicinity are from 1200 to 1500 feet deep. The company's second well is down 800 feet and prospects are said to be good. Harvest Home Feast. At the German Methodist church on Sunday there will be an old-fashioned harvest home feast. The pastor, Rev. Wm. Kohlenberger, will preach a sermon appropriate to the occasion. The church will be decorated with fruits, and the choir will render songs with its usual excellence. An invitation is extended all to attend. Local Dots. German Evangelical Lutheran service next Sunday in the Episcopal church at 2:30 p.m. Sunday school at 2 o'clock. L.Kogler, pastor. Company E is preparing for a social dance the last Friday of this month, the 26th. Trustee Dickel brought up the matter of the necessity for an increased sprinkling of the streets at the West End. The city has a 1000-gallon tank at the water works which is not in use, and he suggested that it be placed at some convenient point at the west end of Center street, connected by a 1-inch pipe with the water works and used to fill the sprinkler. Thus the west parts of Center street and Broadway would be effectively sprinkled. The tank would also be useful in case of fires. Trustee Schwenckert thought the scheme a good one, although it could hardly be carried out in time to do much good before the rains come. It would be all right for next summer, however. The matter was referred to the Committee on Public Improvements to select an available site, to get an agreement from the owner for the placing of the tank, and to look up the matter of the expense of it. Bills to the amount of $1103.24 were audited and ordered paid. Trustee Helms presided, and all members of the board were present except Trustee Weisel. Serious Accident. While engaged in gathering walnuts at his home place on East Broadway, yesterday morning, Mr. Fletcher had the misfortune to fall 15 feet to the ground, sustaining serious injury. He was picked up unconscious and carried into the dwelling, where he soon regained consciousness. Dr. Bickford was called. He found no bones broken. Mr. Fletcher suffers considerable pain about the shoulder and hip, but it is hoped that no permanent injury will result. Salmon. Fisherman Bush received in his consignment of fish from Newport on Tuesday a fine 10-pound salmon, which was the first of its kind ever seen in this market. Judge Shanley, who has caught salmon by the bushel on the Columbia, was present, and said that while the fish looked like a salmon, he would not believe it was one until it was cut open, and the infallible sign disclosed—the unmistakable red salmon meat. Bush cleaned the fish and on slicing it, it was pronounced a salmon, and a fine specimen, too. Miss Laurie Roller and her friend, Miss Allie Cunningham, are visiting friends in Los Angeles. Miss Cunningham has been here several weeks, and expects to remain during the winter. H. Kruger was in from the Los Angeles mitos on Tuesday. He was a year two ago quite successful in the prosecution of frogs for the market, but being his absence in the Hawaii islands cranes proved so destructive to seriously menace the industry.

Informs us he has a fellow feeling printers, he having been connected previous to his conversion, for many years with one of the largest print establishments at St. Louis. M. L. Rogers was in Los Angeles Tuesday, and said yesterday that had been quite surprised to find myself in town on circus day. (Courier) He took in the parade and the scene (deferring his business to some future time, so to speak), and pronounced out of sight—the finest circus he saw in his life. The fact that Mr. Rogers is aware that the show exhibits Santa Ana today is sufficient indication of his probable whereabouts. Paving business with him will probably find him near the bandwagon in parade this morning, and this noon, near the lovely Circassian sideshow. W. J. Cole was in from Hardscratch a day or two ago. He is rejoicing at the arrival of a new baby girl at residence a week ago Friday. Mr. Cole is a subscriber to rural free dues, and is more than pleased with service. He has been hearing reports from different quarters, however, the system would be abandoned; was informed that the person may such statement knew the same truth. Rural free delivery has "to stay"—it was designed for just rural residents as Mr. Cole, who six miles from the Anaheim Post office would not give up his box for ten what it cost him.
