The defeat of Mr. Pierotti for reelection as director of the water company is occasion for sincere regret on the part of all; as is also the defeat of Mr. Steward. Mr. Pirotti rose from zanjero to be superintendent, and was finally honored by election to the Board of Directors, on which he served for several years. He has signalized his incumbency of the office by a conscientious regard for the interests of shareholders which has redounded greatly to the good of the company. During the recent campaigning for director, he set an excellent example to those who put in time hunting proxies by absolutely refusing to ask a single man for a vote. That he was defeated is to be regretted. That so large a volume of stock was voted for him must be considered as a flattering testimonial of his worth. He incurred the wrath of several by insisting upon the abrogation of the "generous measurement" plan, which has worked disadvantageously to the interests of the company for many years. By this "plan" certain irrigators have been given 100 inches of water for 50, and one recently had 175 inches for 50. This "plan" is most outrageous; all fair-minded men should frown down upon it. It is highway robbery. If current rumor is to be believed, zanjeros have been presented with gifts and have otherwise been made to feel they enjoy the friendship of this or that director, to the end that they may consider themselves safe in their positions. In return for this state of affairs comes the "generous measurement," which is gnawing at the vitals of the company. These water grabbers, be they in high places or low, should be given to understand that this "generous measurement" tomfoolery must stop, or it must continue with the unanimous approval of every shareholder weeks ago which looked to us very like an old acquaintance. In fact, on closer inspection it proved to be our own account of the meeting, published last week. Whereat Editor Tresslar reminds one of the man in the story who went to a physician for treatment for some sort of ailment. The doctor prescribed and charged him two dollars. "Doctor," said he, "I have been out of employment for so long I cannot pay you, but I will as soon as I get work." The physician bade him go, and to pay him when he secured employment. "And this prescription," said the patient, "what will that cost me?" That would cost him a dollar, the physician informed him. "Doctor, I haven't got a dollar, I have been out of work so long. Will you please lend it to me, and I will return it when I pay you the other two." The physician took the prescription and proceeded to erase something therefrom. "What are you doing, Doctor?" said the patient. "I put something in the prescription for your nerve. You don't need it; I am scratching it out." Editor Tresslar must not be backward in helping himself to the news. But he has no need of a nerve tonic. Owners of artesian wells who permit them to flow uncapped winter and summer may have a chance to explain their course of action before a court of justice one of these days. Down about Westminster wells by the score have been permitted to flow continuously the past year, to the inevitable lowering of the water stratum in wells further hitherward. A law upon the California statute books provides severe penalties for wells permitted to run uncapped; but there is another side to this question which should make these well-owners feel themselves impelled to cap their wells and thus staunch this ever escaping flow of priceless moisture. On the road to the Landing one has to drive out of the highway, so we are informed, by quag TEACHERS' INSTITUTE RESOLUTION Endevoring to Bring the Profession Up to Highest Standard. At the recent meeting of the Teachers' Institute the following resolutions prepared by Prof. Little, principled the grammar school of this city, were unanimously adopted: To the Teachers of Orange County Institute: Your committee begs to mit the following resolutions: (1.) Whereas, Since the safety of government and perpetuity of our institutions, and security of life society is being jeopardized by lawlessness, anarchy, and trampism, created by a small minority of ignorant, and believing that it can remedied by more stringent educational laws. Resolved, That this institute fails compulsory law in this State which be enforced. (2.) Whereas, That much time spent in teaching the weights measures by the old and new system and that the rising generation is competent to take up the new, and newspaper magazines are advising same. Resolved, That we continue to locate that the time may speedily when congress shall supplant the ent system by the metric system. (3.) Whereas, That we teach Orange county recognize the need of establishing an ethical code of standing in our profession, thereby be it Resolved, That we each, by a stant devotion and worthiness, enter or to bring the profession up to standard whereby it can profitably be made a life work. That in all transactions of business touching employment, advance salary, or tenure of office, we see far as possible, to free ourselves all political machinations or man actions, or from the use of friends, or commercial concerns as a means obtaining position or advancement any kind. That mutual support and fellowship should exist between teachers profession, who should not try derbid, or in any way undermine other in contest for such position. (4.) That those in authority shall forth all their moral support, and thetic advice, and utmost efforts lift and protect the worthy ones their authority. Lastly, That a spirit of willfulness and loyalty to those in authority prevail, each teacher resting his motion upon intrinsic merit, power... These water grabbers, be they in high places or low, should be given to understand that this "generous measurement" tomfoolery must stop, or it must continue with the unanimous approval of every shareholder in the company. Irrigators on the Northside may be winked at when they engage in gouging the company, but we feel there is still left sufficient integrity among the shareholders to see to it that these things are properly ferreted out, exposed and stopped. Mr. Steward had recently come upon the board—he had served a year. He had been elected on the so-called "reform" ticket, and took office expecting, we presume, to find a particularly rotten state of affairs existing in the company. He was not on the board a fortnight before he publicly stated the charges of corruption, which seemed to be the principal stock in trade among the reformers, was the most downright driveling bosh. While handicapped at the start by his inexperience in water affairs, his keen perception was quick to grasp the situation, and he proved to be, before his term was half over, a valuable man on the board. Yet the very forces which elected him a year ago turned against him, and his strength in proxies, which some weeks ago attained to a standard almost sufficient to elect him, was coaxed away, in some cases by downright lying. Pierotti was charged in some quarters with being "Crowther's man." We do not know whether that is considered a crime or not, but we know it is not true. Pierotti displaced Crowther from the management of the Durkee ranch, substituting Steward. He forced night irrigation on the Northside during repairs to the Tuffree reservoir, while Crowther opposed it; he has differed with that gentleman on many an occasion, as those who keep abreast of water affairs abundantly know; and was generally pretty well able to take care of himself in an argument. He was defeated by unfair and underhanded means, and his loss will be felt by the board before its term is half over. While the amendment proposing an increase of 1000 shares of water stock was defeated at the annual continuously the past year, to the inevitable lowering of the water stratum in wells further hitherward.

A canvass of the vote of stockholders of the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation company was made Saturday afternoon at the directors' meeting in Orange to determine whether or not the company should amend its by-laws so as to allow it to effect an exchange of water with James Irvine of the San Joaquin ranch for his riparian rights up the river. The contest came in the proposition to allow Mr. Irvine to take water out of the territory, usually supplied by the company, to his home place in Tustin. The canvass of the votes showed that more than a two-thirds majority of the stockholders were in favor of the proposition. The by-laws will accordingly be amended to allow the directors to carry out the action as proposed. Jack Frost Bit "Taters."

Crowther opposed it; he has differed with that gentleman on many an occasion, as those who keep abreast of water affairs abundantly know; and was generally pretty well able to take care of himself in an argument. He was defeated by unfair and underhanded means, and his loss will be felt by the board before its term is half over. While the amendment proposing an increase of 1000 shares of water stock was defeated at the annual meeting of Saturday, as was to have been expected, nevertheless there were many stockholders present who favored the plan. No one argues for an extension of the irrigable area solely that users of water may suffer a curtailment of their supply; rather is it from the more lofty standpoint of the good not only of the company, but the community as well. To be sure, no increase is possible until first, the building of the Yorba reservoir, and, secondly, another reservoir of larger capacity, or a submerged dam in the river. The construction of the former would easily admit of the inclusion of 1000 acres of new land, and the subsequent conserving of waste water would permit the acquisition of much more new land. This section of country has a great future before it; the country is growing; new people are coming in, and home-seekers are looking for lands. Let us open up this strip of unirrigated land lying at our doors; let us conserve the waters that go to waste, and let us invite the newcomer. Mr. Tresslar's new paper at Fullerton contained last week a lengthy account of the water meeting two Henry E. Huntington and the Southern Pacific company have met at the parting of the ways. The former, having severed all connection with the railroad property made famous by the late Collis P. Huntington, is confining his energies in the direction of constructing an interurban electric system of nearly 500 miles, to be centered in Los Angeles. The younger Huntington is seeking to obtain certain franchises to enable him to haul freight through the principal streets of the city. The Santa Fe and Southern Pacific have combined to thwart him and block his plans. It is thought Huntington will secure the franchise he is after, and that work on the line running through Anaheim will begin in the near future.

NIE SCHALLER COMMITTS SUICIDE Act-Bore Excellent Reputation Annie Schaller, the sixteen-year-oldighter of Mr. and Mrs. Schaller of centia, committed suicide by swaling strychnine, shortly after arison Tuesday morning. Infatuation a young man named Charles Rymer boarded at the household, and no days ago was dismissed from house, is said to be the reason of a rash deed. Telephone messages are at once sent for physicians, but their arrival she was dead. It is said she made a similar rash attempt to end her life the previous day. A few days after Rymer was dismissive the house he wrote the girl telling he had secured employment for and asking her to come to him in new home. Her parents would not hear of her leaving home, and, despite entreaties, refused to permit her accept the situation. The girl became desperate, and on Monday morning procured a quantity of strychnine which had been kept in the house to squirrels, and mixing it in a glass, clared her intention of committing suicide if her parents still withheld air consent to her following Rymer. They paid little attention to the heat and no more was said about the latter during that day. Tuesday morning Annie was summoned by her mother to assist in the preparation of breakfast at an early hour. She refused to come, and Mrs. Schaller, thinking it a bit of pique, to her daughter's room. The girl George R Reynard and Hanna Reynard—Lot 1, block B,Garden Grove; $25.

The immediate cause of his sudden taking off is not known, though it is thought to have been paralysis of the cardiac nerves. Mr. Nevin retired at an early hour Saturday evening in the best of spirits. Sunday morning he awoke about 7:30 o’clock,and was apparently just about to rise, when with a scarcely audible articulation,他 turned over on his side apparently dead. Mrs. Nevin who was in the room at the time,rushed to his side,and found him still breathing,但 in a comatose state. She hastily summoned her son，William G.Nevin,jr.,and the two endeavored to resuscitate the stricken man，但 in vain.Before the arrival of Dr. N.H.Norman，who was summoned by telephone,Mr. Nevin died without regaining consciousness. In January，1901Mr. Nevin partially lost the use of his right arm and upon consultinga physician，fo und that he was suffering from what is popularly called “creeping paralysis.”He was advised to give up all active work and take a trip to Europe,and accordingly secured a six mon th’leaf of absence.他 did not go to Europe however，but to Mexico，where he remained for some three weeks and then took a trip to the East，visiting Boston.New York and Philadelphia.While in the East he consulted a number of eminent physicians and tried various methods of treatment.After an absence of about three months he returned to Los Angeles,greatly improved in health.Mr. Nevin was confident that he had been cured by Christian Science.

While talking of the many notable people he met during his pugilistic careerJohn L.Sullivan said one day in New York:“Once when I was in SydneyI had a suit of rooms directly over Sarah Bernhardt.I never met the lady,and I didn’t much care.She was jabbering French all the time and was rehearsing constantly in her room.I heard so muchof it that I pretty near the willies。一 night I happened to follow Sarah into her majesty’s theater in Sydney,and I had a good chance to size her up.She was a feather-weight all right,and there was so much powder on her face that I thought she’d made a mistake.She got a look at me,and because I had been so much annoyed with her jabbering I scowled at her gave her the look that used to scare the dubs who tried to stay four rounds with me.Well sir,Sarah gave one Going To Canossas The saying “going to Canossasto the humiliating pilgrimage by the Emperor Henry IVthe year 1077.Henry had the claims advanced by Great brand and,fruising submissively communicated by that pope emperor at first laughed at tence,but took a more seize when he found himself deceasedby his personal attendants after on a journey to Italy to make with the pope.The latter wiledthe Castle of Canossa,a former Countess Mathilda and situate mountains of Modena.Thither per hastened,但the pope see him save under the ming conditions.

The master cast upon him an eye of Aberdeen gray, and then remarked quietly, "Weel, weel, ye'll just pay the money to our cashier, for ye ken the rats is mine, not yours."—Sydney Bulletin.

Chambers' Journal says the inspiration for Milton Wellings' song "Some Day" came to him while he was waiting in an agony of suspense to hear from his wife, rumor having arisen of an accident to a yachting party of which she was a member.

Fine Wines, Liquors and Cigars THE PEERLESS STERN BROTHERS Going to Canossa. The saying "going to Canossa" refers to the humiliating pilgrimage made by the Emperor Henry IV to Italy in the year 1077. Henry had objected to the claims advanced by Gregory Hildebrand and, refusing to submit, was excommunicated by that pontiff. The emperor at first laughed at the sentence, but took a more serious view when he found himself deserted even by his personal attendants and resolved on a journey to Italy to make his peace with the pope. The latter was then at the Castle of Canossa, a fortress of the Countess Mathilda and situated in the mountains of Modena. Thither the emperor hastened, but the pope refused to see him save under the most degrading conditions. The desperate situation of Henry compelled him to submit, and for three days and nights, barefoot and bareheaded, clad only in a hair shirt, the ralment of a penitent, he waited at the gate. At the end of this fearful pence, which was undergone in the month of January, he was admitted to the papal presence, was absolved and received his dominion as a gift from the pope. The expression has ever since been current as indicative of abject submission on any terms imposed by the conqueror. They Weren't Fed. "Some years ago," said a San Francisco man, "a globe trotting Englishman came into the city by the Golden Gate, and it fell to my lot to entertain him." So one night I took him to dine at the far famed Cliff House. It was a beautiful moonlight night, and from where we sat upon the porch we looked out upon the broad bosom of the Pacific ocean. The moon's light made a path across the waters, and in its center the Seal rocks lay like a black patch. The Englishman inquired what they were and upon my informing him said: "Bah Jove, are those the Seal rocks o' which I have heard? I'd very much like them to the seals. I say, my man, 'turning to the waiter,' caunt I see the seals? Don't you feed them at night?" "Oh, yessir!" replied the waiter, who was of Hibernian descent, without blinking an eye. "At 9 o'clock we always gives them their ham and eggs, sir." "The Englishman accepted this surprising piece of information without turning a hair and announced that he would surely be on hand at the time mentioned. He was; but, needless to say, the waiter was not." Without a Ring. A wedding without a ring seems incongruous, but in Cadiz, Spain, no ring is used. After the ceremony the bride-groom moves the flower in his bride's hair from left to right, for in various parts of Spain to wear a rose above your right ear is to proclaim yourself a wife. Thus the rose takes the place of "the ring." Fine Wines, Liquors and Cigars THE PEERLESS A.
