SHEEPMAN MAKES A KICK ABOUT THE RESERVOIR
Had to Move Out, and Now Says Sides are Full of Gravel and Will Not Hold Water—Kellogg Throws Light on Subject.
The water board at its meeting on Saturday afternoon, after sitting in committee of the whole upon revision of the rules, had presented for its august consideration the following report of the Ditch Committee:
ANAHEIM, Cal., March 15, 1902.
Shale Rock cut. — We shall commence cementing on said cut today.
Damron contract. — Damron will have ditch at Horseshoe Bend completed in about six days with his present force.
Reservoir. — Cement ditch below reservoir is about completed.
Brunworth ditch. — We recommend raising of cement ditch 12 inches at railroad track, at a cost not to exceed $40. All cost above said sum to be paid by Mr. Brunworth.
Fleischmann ditch. — We ask for further time.
Key ditch. — On said ditch Mr. Young agrees to do all necessary hauling for 2000-inch ditch. Remainder of shareholders on said ditch will haul for 1200 inches only. We recommend this ditch be built.
Sparks ditch. — We refer said ditch back to board, with recommendation that the board try to get right-of-way on railroad land.
H. L. SMITH,
H. H. HALE,
J. C. SHEPPARD.
The various recommendations were adopted.
The following letter from the Southern Pacific railway company, referring to private ditch of Mr. Sparks on its right-of-way west of town, was read:
ANAHEIM, Cal., March 9, 1902.
R. MELROSE, Attorney A. U. W. Co.
—Dear Sir: Referring to a request for construction of a cement ditch on right-of-way across land of Mr. Sparks, Roadmaster Stephens writes as follows:
"Mr. Boschke states that he did not make any promises, and our people will not approve of the construction of the cement ditch on the right-of-way, and insist on the removal of the temporary ditch."
Please consider this a formal notification and request action accordingly.
T. A. DARLING.
Sparks contends that Engineer Boschke, who built the Los Alamitos railroad, made him a verbal promise that the ditch could remain upon the rail-cashed and money used for the benefit of the company.
Hale seconded the motion, while the board laughed a loud laugh.
Sherwood austerely rapped for order, saying motion was out of order.
Crowther withdrew his motion, after the board had enjoyed a laugh at Eymann's expense, and Krick was instructed to refund the money.
Crowther said that on the recommendation of Ditch Committee for Key ditch one man agreed to haul gravel for 2000-inch ditch, while the others agree to haul for a ditch of only 1200-inch capacity. He desired to be enlightened.
Hale said the ditch was a main ditch. It was a question of getting right of way for it now or never, and the committee had recommended, in view of this fact, that even though certain parties refused to haul material for its full capacity, the ditch be cemented.
Hale said the gate in ditch for land recently bought by C. C. Chapman at Boromeo was not in correct location, it being not on Chapman's land but on Tuffree's. Line of ditch was run by Capt. Healey. Who set the stakes for gate did not appear, but Healey did not.
On motion of Hale, Tuffree was requested to place a new gate in ditch for Chapman.
Sheppard reported that during the rain 40 feet of ditch on Crowther's east line had been washed out. Crowther had been irrigating in night time, as well as others up the ditch. The rain came down so that the others discontinued operations, turning water down the ditch. This caused break. Same was ordered repaired.
The board took up the matter of the Yorba reservoir.
Sherwood said right of way should be procured for outlet ditches.
Kellogg said outlet ditch would run on small piece of land of Yorba. For the greater distance it would parallel the railway line at Richfield, and at one point it would go under the Richfield spur. He apprehended no difficulty in getting right of way.
Sheppard said Sheepman Boissereane had confided to him that he could show the board a gravel stratum inside of reservoir, similar to that at the Kraemer reservoir. The bottom of reservoir, he said, was all right, but the sides were gravelly and would not hold water. Sheppard suggested the
ANAHEIM WILL LOSE A SCHOOL TEACHING
New Law Requires that Boys in Orphanages Be Not Included in School Census.
A law passed by the last Legislature provides that orphans and half orphaned in public asylums be not included in the yearly school census." There is the amount of State school money portioned to such districts as enumerated these pupils will be less by the number excluded from their ular school census.
This law will affect Anaheim advantageously. It will result in decreasing the number of census school children in the district, it is estimated 140. If this supposition should correct, it will lessen the force teachers by one, and possibly two.
The number of census school children in this district last year was 733 years before 724. It is thought that derer the new law the number will year drop below the 600 mark.
It is believed that many of the phants at the academy are bona-fide residents of this district, and an deaver will be made to arrive at facts of the case.
St. Catherine's academy received from the State treasury annually 800 for support of orphans and orphans.
Anaheim school district recovers from the same source for the supply of its public schools about $7,000.
Prof. Little, principal of the Central School, states that many of the McCan children attending school refuse vaccinated.

T. A. DARLING.
Sparks contends that Engineer Boschke, who built the Los Alamitos railroad, made him a verbal promise that the ditch could remain upon the railroad’ right-of-way. Mr. Boschke’s reply would seem to take a different view of the situation.
Mr. Sheppard made a report upon cement used at Horseshoe Bend.
The Colton company will have no cement inside of 40 days. One car shipped to Damron had been rejected as being “new cement” and unfit for the work intended for it.
Secretary Krick read a letter from the Spreckels company quoting prices on cement, naming $3.35 per barrel for Alsen cement.
Engineer Kellogg recommended this brand of cement, but said that Spreckels had at one time, in order to injure its reputation commercially, procured a number of barrels bearing Alsen labels and filled them with an inferior quality.
Mr. Crowther observed this was a State’s prison offense, and if the authors of such business were caught at it, they should be vigorously dealt with.
The board fixed price of cement to stockholders at an advance of 25 cents per barrel.
Supt. Porter reported he had not yet been able to procure from former Superintendent Woodward an inventory of tools and implements on hand. Porter said he had most of them, but the others are scattered from Fullerton to the river. Further time was asked for and granted in order to make final report.
Porter reported upon progress of work up the ditch, showing excellent progress in cementing, cleaning ditches and other matters.
Secretary Krick read correspondence from the Baker iron works relative to failure to ship capstan and screw for wastegate, adding the same would be shipped immediately.
Sheppard suggested that in future the company send work to other firms. The one in question has so much business it seems to pay very little attention to small orders.
A letter was read from the Adams-Phillips company of Los Angeles, offering to sell the board a quantity of water. Secretary authorized to write and ascertain what the proposition is.
Communication of W. J. Hole relative to sale of La Habra reservoir site.
Crowther and Sheppard appointed committee to confer with Mr. Hole in reference to same.
Application of Chas. E. Stone for position of zanjero. Accepted. He to report for work immediately.
Bills of P. H. Krick for $74.50, money advanced for freight, and that of J. C. Sheppard, in amount $22, money ad-
Sherwood said right of way should be procured for outlet ditches.
Kellogg said outlet ditch would run on small piece of land of Yorba. For the greater distance it would parallel the railway line at Richfield, and at one point it would go under the Richfield spur. He apprehended no difficulty in getting right of way.
Sheppard said Sheepman Boisserranc had confided to him he could show the board a gravel stratum inside of reservoir, similar to that at the Kraemer reservoir. The bottom of reservoir, he said, was all right, but the sides were gravelly and would not hold water. Sheppard suggested the board make a personal examination of the site.
Engineer Kellogg threw some light on the subject. He said that Boisserranc probably knew all about sheepraising, but he thought when it came to reservoirs, his lack of knowledge would fill a large book. When he (Kellogg) surveyed the site of reservoir, Boisserranc had his sheep there, and became quite incensed at the prospect of having to move his sheep from such a favorable location. Boisserranc lost several sheep by their falling into pits dug in the bottom of the site. Kellogg had to pay him $5 to save a lawsuit. Kellogg said the gravel stratum referred to by Boisserranc was above the reservoir’s high-water mark.
Sherwood suggested the reservoir site be leased for a crop this season. The company could not do anything with it in time for the present irrigating season.
Crowther said with some spirit that the amount of money to be realized from rent of tract would be insignificant, and was not worth while considering.
Hale said he wanted no leases on the site.
Smith said the amount to be realized from rental would be small.
Kellogg said if a corn crop was to be put in, the stalks would be in the company’s way when work was begun on reservoir in the fall.
On motion of Sheppard, seconded by Hale, a committee consisting of Sherwood and Kellogg was appointed to make a trip to the reservoir site for the purpose of invigilating Boisserranc’s kick about the gravel.
Resolutions of Respect
The Directors of the Anaheim Union Water company, at Saturday’s meeting, adopted the following resolutions of respect upon the death of Zanjero Rogers:
Whereas, A. L. Rogers died at his home in Placentia on the twelfth inst; and,
Whereas, He has been a faithful and efficient employee of this company, and has, by his uniform courtesy and untiring industry secured the esteem of the members of this board and the stockholders of the company with whom he came in contact in the discharge of his duties; therefore, be it
Resolved, That this board hereby express its sorrow for his unexpected and untimely demise, and places upon record its appreciation of his services as an employee of the company, its high regard for his character as a man and its sympathy for the stricken widow and family.
Resolved That these resolutions be procured for outlet ditches.

Anaheim Will be the Scene of Athletic Contests in the Fall.
The Southern California Turners' association, in annual convention at San Diego on Saturday and Sunday, decided to hold the annual turn fest in this city during the coming fall.

The turn fest will continue two days. Local turners are making preparations to entertain their guests royally.
PRIZE WINNERS IN A BEET CONTEST
Senator Jones Takes First Money in Sweepstakes Contest Open to the Whole Country
The Orange Judd Farmer announces the list of prize winners in class 1, of the beet growers' contest conducted by that journal.
Senator T. J. Jones, of Anaheim, gets first prize—$250.
R. H. Stine, of Chino, gets second prize—$150.
The contest in this class is for the record showing most clearly the methods pursued and the results obtained, irrespective of the yield, and was open to all growers in the Untited States. It was a contest of intelligent expression of methods, and prize-winning in it is a decided credit to the winner. We congratulate Senator Jones and Mr. Stine on their victory. The third prize goes to Utah, the next five to different points in Colorado, and the rest are scattered through different points in the Eastern States.
The winners in class 2 are announced in the Farmer of March 1, copies of which have already been received here. This is for the most sugar produced on one surveyed acre of ground and is limited to the several beet sugar factories contributing the money for the prizes. The following are the winners among the patrons of the American Beet Sugar company's factories in California.
JIM BUSH AT FIRST THE WORST EVER
His Costly Errors Give an Exciting Game to Norwalk, Who Are Not so Few.
Jim Bush, the aforetime Olinda first baseman, ought to go way back and sit down.
He never could play ball, and his exhibition on Sunday afternoon was such as to have a tendency to drive men to hard drink. Jim was given his release some time ago, but the rejuvenated oil well nine were shy a few players when they came upon the ground half an hour late, and Jim, who was throwing the ball around, was impressed into service and placed on first. Joe Burke was responsible for this bit of work, and Joe himself ought to go quite a piece back and resolve never to play any more. Joe has 45 per cent too much filigree play in his work. He ought to cut it out. He knows too much about the game—is too good a player to play ball. He ought here after to sit on the benches and be good.
The oil wells have a number of good players among them, notably Crips, Brown, Tuffree, Annin, Feeley and Wagner. But Bush at first would queer a better lot of players than these oil men ever saw, and with Filigree Burke at short it is just so much worse.
The Norwalk pumpkin-rollers seem to be players from the ground up. They were unable to hit Crips effectively in the fore part of the game, but when they became used to the large crowd in attendance, they found the ball and slammed it good and hard and plenty.
Mike Melrose, official scorer, absented with the score. Being an oil well rooter from away back, it is suspected that the sight of a score in print with his favorite nine at the short end of it was too much for his Italian stomach. Mike took an early train for Los Angeles to forget all about it.
Score: 10 to 9.

FIGHT WITH A CONDOR.
Forest Ranger Joseph Montgomery of Santa Barbara county had a thrilling experience a few days ago in the wild section through which he has to travel. In the big pine forests on Pine mountain he saw too foxes chasing a dark object. On nearing the place he found it to be a large California condor trying to fight off the foxes, which evidently were trying to kill it. He tried to lasso the bird with his halter rope, but it attacked him and fought so viciously that he was compelled to take a club and defend himself. The bird jumped at him, trying to strike him with its beak and grasp him with its talons.
After a hard fight the condor was killed, but not until the ranger's clothes were torn to shreds and he himself tired out. The bird was either sick or injured and unable to fly, and was about to become the prey of the foxes. Montgomery desired to capture the bird alive, as it was a magnificent specimen of a now rare species, but the vicious sight it made rendered its capture impossible. The wings measured nine feet across.
