Those of our citizens who have not yet subscribed to the fund for the sanitarium should consider well the inestimable good to accrue to our city should our people be successful in securing the location of the institution in this locality. Apart from the sanitarium proper, its managers will erect a steam laundry, and a bakery for the preparation of its health food. It is not designed to have this bakery to come into competition with our local bakers—on the contrary quite the reverse. The shredded-wheat biscuit, which the Battle Creek institution manufactures and ships to all parts of the world, may be found on sale at any of our grocery stores. It is a health food which has acquired a reputation throughout the civilized world. This will be manufactured here and will be shipped out by the carload. Another article of food to be manufactured will be postum-cereal coffee. These three branches of the sanitarium will give employment to scores of men, who will at once become active factors in the upbuilding of the city. Then there will be the farm and industrial school of eighty acres, to be purchased immediately outside the city limits. The sanitarium at Battle Creek maintains a printing office which employs 200 men. Their branch here will give employment to dozens, who will be engaged in preparing advertising matter, pamphlets and magazines, all of which will advertise Anaheim as never before. Patients to the number of 200 are waiting to become inmates of the place. Many of these will rent rooms outside the sanitarium, and doubtless not a few will become per- That was a very neat response made by Herman Harris at the meeting of the Chamber of Commerce the other evening, when he was called upon by Chairman Melrose for his views upon the subject. "I have come over from Santa Ana," he said, "to see if I cannot get this Sanitarium away from you, but I find you have made such commendable headway that it is useless for me to try; so I will help you to get it for Anaheim." Mr. Harris is among the shrewdest business men of Orange county, and loses no occasion to say a good word for Anaheim. In fact, as he said at the meeting, he can almost be called a resident of this city, inasmuch as one of the handsomest stores in Southern California was inaugurated and is now doing business here largely through his foresight and judgment. We refer to the department store conducted by his brothers-in-law, Mr. Asher and Mr. Falkenstein—who have their coats off and shoulders to the wheel, striving to the utmost to locate this Sanitarium prize here. We stepped in to see L. Goldwater in his wholesale clothing establishment, in Los Angeles, the other day, and found him in the midst of a very lively trade. Orders for goods were being filled at a rapid rate, and the large force of clerks and accountants employed transformed the place into a veritable hive of industry. But Mr. Goldwater is always pleased to see old friends from Anaheim, and has not lost a particle of interest in the city of which he was, not so long ago, a resident. Los Angeles is experiencing a spirited business boom. There are probably more people in the town than at any previous time in its history. Real estate changes are frequent and business of all kinds lively. We are glad to note the evidence of our former townsman's prosperity, and hope for its continuance in an ever-increasing volume. Now comes Gen. Otis of the The sanitarium at Battle Creek maintains a printing office which employs 200 men. Their branch here will give employment to dozens, who will be engaged in preparing advertising matter, pamphlets and magazines, all of which will advertise Anaheim as never before. Patients to the number of 200 are waiting to become inmates of the place. Many of these will rent rooms outside the sanitarium, and doubtless not a few will become permanent residents. Money to be expended by these people will amount to $200,000 within two years. The bonus must be raised this week. We have assurances that if it be raised, this enterprise will be located here. Let all people having the good of the community at heart contribute to the extent of their ability. We cannot afford to permit this grand prize to slip through our grasp. Some days ago a press dispatch was sent out from Long Beach to the effect that the Directors of the Battle Creek Sanitarium had decided to accept the proposition offered by that town, and that the branch sanitarium would be located at that point. We have it on the word of one of the most influential members of the Chamber of Commerce of this city that Long Beach’s offer has been turned down. Persons in that town and elsewhere have been guilty of the most unconscionable untruths about Anaheim. This warfare against the most beautiful spot of California has continued for years. In the name of decency we protest against this unclean thing. The Battle Creek people have been told we grow no fruit or vegetables here; that we are a prey to dry, desiccating winds, have no water for irrigation and all that sort of thing. These untruths have been most effectually disproven to the sanitarium people, as well as all others who have done us the honor to come here and investigate our industries and resources. We have the most equable and salubrious climate in the world. Our diversity of products is likewise the most superb and varied in the world. We have one of the finest irrigation systems in the world. These are facts beyond dispute. We have the most enlightened, advanced and liberal-spirited people in the world. What more could our envious critics desire? Stop this lying about Anaheim! In the name of decency, justice and solitude in interest in the city of which he was, not so long ago, a resident. Los Angeles is experiencing a spirited business boom. There are probably more people in the town than at any previous time in its history. Real estate changes are frequent and business of all kinds lively. We are glad to note the evidence of our former townsman’s prosperity, and hope for its continuance in an ever-increasing volume. Now comes Gen. Otis of the Times, and, echoing the sentiments of Mr. Bulla, given expression to some months ago, exclaims Orange county “will be solid for Flint” in the next Republican State convention. We should like very much to know what Gen. Otis bases his surmise upon. The State convention is a long way off, and if there is any effort making in Orange county at this time to put up a delegation for Flint, it is not, as we said when Senator Bulla gave utterance to the same opinion, observable to the naked eye, nor yet to one possessed of a large-sized microscope. Gov. Gage has not yet announced his candidature, but we doubt, even if he should today announce that he did not care for a renomination—we greatly doubt if, even in that contingency, Flint could secure the gubernatorial nomination. It is early yet to talk politics—certainly it is extremely early to be claiming Orange county for Gen. Otis’ pet candidate. In a word, that statement of the Times is not true, SENATOR JOHN P. JONES of Nevada makes the announcement that the evolution of political issues finds him again in alignment with the Republican party. Says the senator: “I have suffered no change in any of the convictions I have entertained in the past, and my return to the Republican party does violence to none of those convictions, I am as sincere a believer in the doctrine of bimetallism as when I left the Republican party solely for that cause, and were the conditions today as then I would be numbered among those defending it. The enormously output of gold, however, has accomplished what bimetallism would have accomplished. The silver issue is dead and we are face to face with other issues. “I have always acted with the Republican party upon every question but silver. I have an unbroken record as a protectionist. My vote in the Senate Committee on Finance enabled the Dingley tariff bill to be reported and thus saved the country from the woes of Democratic tariff misrule. I believe in progress and look up the expiration dates upon the printed slips attached to your paper, and see how they comply with the flight of time.” HENRY T. OXNARD has arrived Washington. His arrival upon scene thus early leads to the belief he is getting ready to represent his sugar producers. Oxnard had a conference with President Roosevelt. It took place just before the President had his talk with Senator Aldric Rhode Island about reciprocity, and supposed to have been upon the subject. What the beet sugar men are particularly fighting just now is reciprocity with Cuba. They believe they do in the movements of the sugar trust attempt to kill off the beet-sugar business by letting Cuban sugars into United States duty free, and they quite certain that the trust now trots practically every sugar plant in Cuba. Beet-sugar men have with considerable alarm that the trust has decided, in case it cannot remove from Cuban sugar, to make a move to have beets come into the country duty-free. That sort of movement would be German sugar beets to this country great quantities, and result in a competition between German American sugar beets. It has been reported at Washington for some time that H. O. Havens president of the Sugar Trust, spend a good part of the coming term in Washington for the sole purpose of fighting out the sugar war. Meyer has said before the United Industrial Commission that all Sugar Trust needs in order to more money with its capital, is tariff concessions, either in regal Cuban sugar or on sugar beets Wall street men say he is going vote the coming winter to getting concessions. Much interest is being taken in circles at the movement in the race of oranges from Puerto Rico and prospects of an increase in the trade the Puerto Rican product in connection with the fruit growers in California and Florida. During the past fortnight between 4,000 and 5,000 packages of oranges have arrived in New York from Puerto Rico. These report first shipments of the season are, moreover, the first shipment reaching this country since their establishment of trade relations between the United States and Puerto Rico. They have nearly all been auction at prices below the figures for California early in this year. We have the most equable and salubrious climate in the world. Our diversity of products is likewise the most superb and varied in the world. We have one of the finest irrigation systems in the world. These are facts beyond dispute. We have the most enlightened, advanced and liberal-spirited people in the world. What more could our envious critics desire? Stop this lying about Anaheim! In the name of decency, justice and fair-dealing, man to man, we solemnly protest against this thing! Eastern statesmen interested in getting immense appropriations for their localities into the river and harbor appropriation bill next winter are seriously disturbed about a report coming East lately that senators and representatives from California, Nevada, Utah, Montana, Wyoming, the Dakotas, Nebraska and Colorado, have formed a combine for the purpose of preventing the passage of the river and harbor bill unless it contains an appropriation and important declaration for national irrigation. It is claimed when Senator Carter of Montana talked the river and harbor bill to death last spring he was acting for this combine because that bill contained no irrigation appropriation. There is more truth than poetry in this Eastern dispatch. The irrigation interests of the West have reached such commanding importance in the internal affairs of the nation that their advocates are in position to demand proper recognition, and failing that, they may adopt the extreme measures of the last session, when Senator Carter defeated the river and harbor bill by talking against it until the hour arrived for adjournment. Millions of dollars are appropriated for rivers and harbors, and the West now demands that recognition be accorded its vast irrigation interests. The battle cry of Western congressmen should be, appropriations for irrigation, or no river and harbor bill. "I have always acted with the Republican party upon every question but silver. I have an unbroken record as a protectionist. My vote in the Senate Committee on Finance enabled the Dingley tariff bill to be reported and thus saved the country from the woes of Democratic tariff misrule. I believe in progress and expansion upon every line beneficial to American trade, commerce and labor. And I believe in the alignment of political parties; today the Republican party is the only one which is in touch with the economic progress of the twentieth century." Senator Jones adds "that the fact that President Roosevelt is the first executive who has ever understood and appreciated the vast latent possibilities of the West, is an earnest in his judgment, of legislation by congress beneficial to the arid region. Nevada had much to lose while remaining out of line with the party in power, and her greatest welfare is wrapped up in Republican success, national and state." He continues: "I believe that the next election will find her again in the Republican column. I have a deep feeling for this commonwealth, which has honored me for so many years, and my gratitude will never end. I thank God that after twenty years of depression she is on the upgrade, and I look for more progress to be made in the state the next two years than in the past quarter of a century." The estimates for the Department of Agriculture for the next fiscal year aggregate $4,789,540. This is against $3,862,420 for the current fiscal year, an increase of a million dollars. This includes $10,000 for silk investigation, which is to be entered upon for the first time. It is the department to experirect and disseminate information relating to silk culture in Iry. real for the Weather Bureau, attended by Chief Moore, and in Secretary Wiison's estilation congress, is $1,218,090, an amount of $169,770. There is an amount of $113,950 in salaries and $40 for vegetable pathological The total estimates for forwork are $260,180, an increase $100, and for soil investigation an increase of $82,000. Increases are to meet the exercise work along special lines. POTTER informs us that the inquiries are made relative to taxes; whereas, the State county rate is the same as last January on the $100, inside incornrions. The difference in this issue created by the school tax, is $1.20 this year, compared with last year. The increase is resent upon the erection of the school. The county needed school room, and the people ponds with which to provide the town is growing, and accidations had to be provided constantly increasing number children. The county school rate is the same as last year—32 on the $100. Riverside Enterprise, one of most interesting of our Southern state exchanges, has renounced democracy and comes out as a political paper.

His arrival upon the thus early leads to the belief that getting ready to represent beetproducers. Oxnard had a short course with President Roosevelt. He place just before the President his talk with Senator Aldrich of the House of Representatives. are building and rebuilding incessantly. Some new secret retreat is always under way. The entire domain is surrounded by an immense wall thirty feet high, the choicest troops of the empire stand guard around it. An inner wall twelve feet thick, with gates of iron, incloses the private residence itself. The walls of his own dwelling are filled with armor plate, in case of projectiles. It is said that a mysterious passage connects with ten secret bed chambers, forming an intricate labyrinth. No one but his body attendant knows where the Sultan may sleep during any particular night. He has electric lights and telephones in his own apartments, but forbids them in Constantinople. Telephones might prove handy for conspirators, and he believes that a dynamite cartridge could be sent over a wire into the palace. He fears electric explosions, so Constantinople still gets along with gaslight. RURAL FREE DELIVERY: It is probable that during the com­ing winter the president will issue an order extending the civil service to the rural free delivery service. Since the establishment of this grow­ing service it has been expected that it would be incorporated into the civil service. Official estimates for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1902, which Postmaster General Smith will submit to congress at the opening of the session, call for an aggregate of $6,250,000 for rural free delivery service, an increase of $2,550,900 over the current year. Oil Saving Forests. Crude petroleum is saving the forests of California. The truth of this statement may be questioned at first thought, but we have the word of the San Francisco papers for it and they give facts in proof of the assertion. The draughts upon the timber supply of California have been enormous for many years. Interior industries and sections of railroad operated at a distance from the seaboard have found wood cheaper than coal, or to put it differently, the price of coal so nearly prohibitive that they were compelled to use wood as fuel. The result has been that the trees left by the lumbermen have been disappearing with alarming rapidity under the axe of the chopper of cordwood and there was reason to fear that the forests of the SPECIAL NOTICE BROOKSHURST, CAL., Oct. 9th, 1901.

Sir Walter Raleigh seems to have had a pretty taste in stimulants, to judge by his "cordial water," the recipe for which is copied from a cookbook nearly 800 years old. This is how Sir Walter concocted his fayprete drink: "Take a gallon of strawberries and put them into a pint of aqua vitm (brandy). Let them stand so four or five days. Strain them gently out and sweeten the water as you please with fine sugar or else with perfume." Queen Elizabeth was exceedingly fond of perfumes, and according to this old book her favorite scent was made in this manner: "Take eight spoonfuls of compound water, the weight of twopence in fine powdered sugar and boil it on hot embers or coals softly. Add half an ounce of sweet marjoram, dry it in the sun, the weight of twopence of powdered benzoln?). This perfume is very good and sweet for the time." The Japan Plum. The loquat, or Japan plum, sometimes erroneously called "medlar," belongs to the family rosacea. Its botanical name is Eriobotrya japonica. The Cyclopedia of American Horticulture says of it: "The loquat is native to China and Japan, but is much planted in the gulf states and westward. It blooms from August until the approach of winter and ripens its clustered fruit in very early spring. It is a profuse bearer in congenial climates. It may be grown from seed. The fruit is often seen in northern markets."

The lemon contains various acids, citric acid among them, with citrate of potash, and these acids oxidize in the blood into carbonates of potash and carbonic acid. As scurvy is believed to be due to a lack of potash salts in the blood, we see how substances like lemons, potatoes and fresh vegetables generally act as preventives of the allment. Also in rheumatism, in which it is desirable to maintain-the alkaline character of the blood, lemons are of service. Beyond this I do not think anybody can vanish the properties of the fruit. A healthy person has no more need of lemons than of say, tea, for his ordinary food will supply him with all that is necessary for the maintenance of a sound body. People who talk about lemons as "good for the liver," and so forth, found their belief rather on faith than on knowledge. London Chronicle.

Making stay in the City of Mexico Round Trip Rates GOOD FOR Sixty Days In presenting this opportunity During the past fortnight between 10 and 5,000 packages of oranges arrived in the New York market on Puerto Rico. These represent first shipments of the season and moreover, the first shipments fetching this country since the establishment of the trade relations between the United States and Puerto Rico. They have nearly all been sold auction at prices below the normal prices for California early in the sea. The question of the price the Puerto Rican fruit may demand has not yet a fair demonstration, in that the receipts thus far have been particularly prior in quality, and especially so was the packing of the fruit is concerned. The latter bears every indication that the shippers are new at the large business. However, in a few weeks the fruit will be arriving, it is believed, in excellent condition. The Puerto Rican product is essentially an early product, during much sooner than either the Florida or California article. In fact, last of the old season's California product is about marketed and arriving the extent of a car or two a day. Guarding the Sultan. Once when the Prince of Samos was driving from an audience he stumbled his backward steps and fell. In a moment the Sultan had pressed a ring behind him. The wall opened and he vanished within, safe from the expected attack. Abrupt gestures in presence often cost dear. Several statues are mentioned, one a gardener of the royal park whom Abdul shot and for rising too quickly to an attitude of respect. Another time he found a child of a palace domestic playing with his mislaid revolver and he had tortured in hope of revealing a pot. His magnificent Yildiz is a monument to fear. It is assassin proof, bomb proof. Architects and engineers Carlyle, on the other hand, is said to have produced the most untldy and awful scribble that ever puzzled a compositor, and Victor Hugo, Browning and Tennyson were nearly as bad. Yet, although this looks as if there might be some sort of a rule in such matters, we find Napoleon, who certainly never failed in directness of expression writing a hand that he could not read himself, and Macready, the actor, whose order for the theater was once taken for a prescription for a cough mixture. One thing seems pretty certain—that the mere size of the letters has little to do with character. Shorts In a Corner. "Yes," said young Mr. Bashful to his best girl, "the stock market has been through considerable excitement of late." "Oh, yes," the girl responded, eager to take part in conversation on a topic which interested her Adolphus. "I have read a lot about it in the paper—all about those dreadful bulls and bears and things." "Yes," Adolphus went on; "they got the shorts in a corner and effectually squeezed them." "Did they?" "Yes." "I think," the demure maid added, after a few minutes' meditation, "that if ever I become a speculator I shall be a short." A few minutes later she found it was not necessary to speculate in stock in order to be treated as a "short."—Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette. How the Fuss Started. "That hand me down suit you're wearing," remarked Rivera, "reminds me of an unripe watermelon." "Why?" asked Brooks. "Because it's so different. One isn't cut to fit, and the other isn't fit to cut."

The most singular circumstance about Arundel castle is that its owner, by mere right of ownership, is Earl of Arundel in the peerage of England. It is believed that there is no similar example of a peerage held on such conditions. Apparently there would be no legal obstacle, were the house of Howard to fall upon evil days and the castle be sold to some millionaire, to prevent the millionaire taking his seat in the house of lords as Earl of Arundel. Industrious Locusta. He was an old sailor and full of yarns about the good old times of sailing ships. "I remember once," he said, "while we were cruising round the Pacific we were surrounded by a swarm of locusta, which ate every inch of our saills. When we got into the next port, I'm blowed if we didn't see the same locusta and every one with a pair of canvas trousers." Different From the Rest. They are talking about how they happened to marry. "I married my wife," said one after the others had all had their say. "because she was so different from any woman I had ever met." "How was that?" chorused the others.

Toilet arrangements such as satisfy the Russian are at his disposal in first and second class trains, but the third class passengers have no such luxuries. When the train halts for the breakfast interval, those who travel third class may be seen performing their ablutions at the platform tap. They till a can like a gardener's watering pot, suck through the spout a mouthful of the water, split it into the hollowed palms and then rub their faces. It is a disgusting process, performed without soap or towel, and, though it may be amusing to the onlooker, it is not very cleansing to the operator. Yet this is the method of ablution adopted by the poorer Russian on his travels.—Chambers' Journal. The Editor Won. A London paper described a children's excursion as a "long, white scream of joy," and was called to account by a correspondent, who said that a scream could be long, but not white, whereupon the editor justified himself by urging that "a hue is often associated with a cry."
