A DEED FROM MILES TO BE INSISTED UPON Water Board Hear Letter Read from Surveyor Finley About the Ditch in No Man's Land The water board met in regular session on Saturday afternoon; present, Directors Sherwood, Bradford, Hale, Sheppard, Smith and Zeyn; absent, Crowther. Smith said the ditch committee had nothing to report. Hale of the same committee said the committee would ask for further time in the Miles ditch matter and the application for cementing the north branch ditch. Sherwood called up a letter written by County Surveyor Finley relative to the Miles ditch, and Secretary Krick read the same as follows: SANTA ANA, Cal., Nov. 10, 1902. G. W. Sherwood, President A. U. W. Co., Fullerton, Cal. Dear Sir: Yours of 8th received and in reference to the Miles ditch will repeat what I wrote to Mr. Miles some days ago to the effect that I had never made a survey of his land and could not tell him definitely whether or not the ditch was on his west line without seeing his deed. I did make a survey of acreage lots 3, 14 and 19 of Fullerton townsite, and found the ditch at Commonwealth avenue to be 11 feet east of the lot line. That is the only statement I have ever made with reference to its location. I explained to him in that letter that if he owned all the land lying east of lots 3, 14 and 19 the ditch would be on him; on the other hand, if he only owned 20 acres the ditch would be on his west line while not being on the east line of above lots, thus leaving a V-shaped piece between his land and the Fullerton townsite. From the description which you included I am of the opinion that the latter is the case and that the ditch is on the west line. The ownership of the V-shaped piece is a question to be determined only by a search of the records; but probably the title is in the person to whom he sold the 100 acres. Mr. Miles' reservation being of net of net would give him $ of surplus on Commonwealth avenue or a width of 661.37 feet. Trusting that the above may be of service in settling the difficulty, I am, yours very truly, S. H. FINLEY. Sherwood said that settled the matter, that the ditch was in the right place. Sheppard moved that Attorney Melrose be instructed to prepare deed for same and present it to Miles and insist upon his signature. He said he did not see the use of bothering the company's ALMOST A FATAL RUNAWAY Francisco Ruiz Has a Narrow Escape in a Runaway Team Attached to His Gangplow The spectacle of a four-horse team galloping down Center street and dragging a heavy gangplow on Monday evening, when the thoroughfare was filled with vehicles, brought out several hundred people to witness the commotion. A short distance behind the runaways came Francisco Ruiz chasing after them, his clothing torn, and across the lower portion of his back an incision made by the wheel grinding into his flesh. Blood was flowing freely from his wounds. He had been badly hurt. Ruiz had been plowing in a field near the Santa Fe depot, and had started home, when one of his leaders took fright at a passing vehicle. The pole of the plow struck one of the rear horses, and the team started to run. In attempting to stay them, Ruiz' back was ground by one of the wheels, his clothing torn, and he narrowly escaped death by falling under the plow. At Stern's corner the team turned down Los Angeles street. At the Southern Pacific tracks the plow caught in the rails. The leaders broke away, but were caught some distance further on. One of the rear horses had its foot so badly cut that it had to be killed. The afternoon train had just passed a moment before. Ruiz soon caught up with the runaways. He was in great pain, and was persuaded to go to his home, a short distance away. He refused the services of a physician. Being a veterinary surgeon himself, he attended to his own case. He soon emerged from his home to look after the injured horse and broken plow. Men on Center street saw the runaway coming when several blocks away. They ran to unhitch their own horses, and drive to a place of safety. The runaway team kept in the middle of the thoroughfare, passing dozens of rigs tied upon either side. As they turned down Los Angeles street one of the rear horses was cut by the ploughshare. When he was unhitched at the railway track he was scarce able to walk. Anaheim's Advancement Said a lately-arrived citizen the RIPLEY WANTS KRAEMER'S LAND Makes An Offer of $75,000 for 220 Acres at Placentia—The Offer is Refused Young Ripley, son of President Ripley of the Santa Fe Railway company, some days ago made Samuel Kraemer an offer of $75,000 for 220 acres of his ranch at Placentia for railroad purposes. The offer was refused. Mr. Kraemer was in town on Saturday, and said the tract which Ripley desires to purchase embraced the best part of his ranch. Much of it is improved with orchards. He will take from the tract this year $6000 in walnuts, $3000 in oranges and a thousand or two in other fruits. “This looks better to me than the price Mr. Ripley offered,” he said. “I could not invest the money he offered me and reap returns anywhere near what I am taking off my place.” In the early days the Spanish settlers used to refer to the Kraemer ranch as the Rancho Pures Nada, or “pure nothing.” It was used as a sheep range, and no attempt was made to improve the land or set it to orchard for many years. It is now one of the most spoken of sections in Southern California. It embraces the town of Placentia, which, if all the railroad rumors we hear prove true, will soon be a railroad center of no mean proportions. A gang of electric railway surveyors has been camped on the Tuffree ranch during the week. They have run two lines north of Col. Tuffree's residence going from La Habra to Richfield. It was said on the street yesterday that the Southern Pacific would before many days have a man in the field securing right of way between Anaheim and Placentia. Baseball The Boys in Blue suffered their first defeat at baseball in two seasons on the Lemon street grounds on Sunday afternoon, Olive proving victorious by a score of 9 to 8. The boys have played 25 games, winning 24 of them. This is a record of which they may well feel proud. The boys take no whitof credit from Olive for their defeat, but are anxious for another game. They have a challenge from the Olinda oil wells to play a game on the home grounds next Thursday afternoon. is a question to be determined only by a search of the records; but probably the title is in the person to whom he sold the 100 acres. Mr. Miles' reservation being of net of net would give him of the surplus on Commonwealth avenue or a width of 661.37 feet. Trusting that the above may be of service in settling the difficulty, I am, yours very truly, S. H. FINLEY. Sherwood said that settled the matter, that the ditch was in the right place. Sheppard moved that Attorney Melrose be instructed to prepare deed for same and present it to Miles and insist upon his signature. He said he did not see the use of bothering the company's head further about the siphon petitioned for by Miles until right of way was granted. Deeds for right of way from Sam Kraemer for cement ditch on his tract were passed upon favorably by attorney and ordered recorded. Supt. Porter reported he had ordered a carload of cement which would be delivered as soon as the ship bringing it makes port. Work on fill 12 was progressing, and the upper cement ditch was in good condition. In order to uncover the gravel pit at Horseshoe Bend, it was necessary, he said, to procure permission of Roadmaster McNeil to lay boards across railroad track in order to haul gravel out. Sheppard said the company had a good bed of gravel at this point and moved the Superintendent be instructed to open it up. Seconded by Bradford and carried. A communication was read from an eastern firm having concrete mixers to sell, giving dimensions and prices. The board discussed the propriety of purchasing one or more, and referred the matter to the ditch committee. Wm. Roerden wrote that he had completed ditch east of town and had connected it with the Wagner ditch. He asked that the company accept and maintain it. To the ditch committee. Mrs. Anna Dierksen asked for the placing of another gate on her 48-acre tract on the ditch east of town. The request was granted, the lady having but one gate at present. Sheppard reported to the board, as a matter of information, that the East Whittier Water company had let a contract for the laying of a 36-inch pipe from the San Gabriel river to Brea canyon, the purpose being to supply La Habra with water; also a 30-inch pipe which will come as far south as the Orange county line. Water will be pumped from the river, and a 220-horsepower engine is being installed. The secretary said that a gentleman had called at the office and said he would loan the company $1400 or $1500 for one or two years at 5 per cent. Sheppard moved the company borrow it and pay off some of the present 6 per cent notes. Carried. Mary Sanger wrote relative to transfer of 13 shares of stock to Conrad Stueckle, accompanied by a copy of decree of Alameda superior court vesting title to same in her. Transfer ordered granted. The following applications for transfers of stock were granted subject to usual conditions: Hannah E. Gever, 5 shares to Bert Men on Center street saw the runaway coming when several blocks away. They ran to unhitch their own horses, and drive to a place of safety. The runaway team kept in the middle of the thoroughfare, passing dozens of rigs tied upon either side. As they turned down Los Angeles street one of the rear horses was cut by the ploughshare. When he was unbitched at the railway track he was scarce able to walk. Anaheim's Advancement Said a lately-arrived citizen other day, who has expended several thousands of dollars here past fall, and who has in contemplation the erection of a number of residences for sale or rent: "I think Anaheim is on the eve of the greatest advancement in its history. The town is going ahead, and I believe it has reached the stage that no one can retard its immediate growth and the development of its many splendid resources." The point, we believe, is well taken. During the past few months there have been more improvements in town and more property has changed hands than at any similar period in the history of the community. Two splendid brick edifices are going up in the heart of town, and many handsome residences are building and in contemplation. The air is filled with rumors of railroad building. Some time ago Samuel Kraemer was offered by Mr. Ripley of the Santa Fe $75,000 for a 220-acre piece of his land at Placentia. Other large offers for real estate have been reported during the past month. The country seems to be preparing for a boom. O.E.S. A regular meeting of Chispa Chapter No. 151, O.E.S., held Monday evening, November 17th, the following officers were elected for the ensuing year: Mrs. Fannie K. Bradford, worthy matron; Erwin Barr, worthy patron; Miss Sarah Crowther, associate matron; Joseph Helmsen, secretary; A. S. Bradford, treasurer; Mrs. Sarah A. Swain, conductress; Mrs. Eliza B. Mills, associate conductress. Twenty Years Jose Urivez, the slayer of Jose Cabrillos at Tousseau Bros.' sheep camp at Placentia, last September, was sentenced some days ago to twenty years imprisonment in Folsom by Judge Ballard in the superior court. The prisoner took the sentence quietly. His attorney made the usual formal entry of a motion for a new trial, which was denied by the court. Urivez was taken to state's prison by Deputy Sheriff Graham. His term will probably keep him in prison during his life, as he is already about 60 years old. Groceries Notice the change in Mr. Dickel's advertisement. He has one of the finest displays of seasonable groceries to be found anywhere. Dickel's stock compares favorably with any in Southern California, and is a credit to Anaheim and Orange county. Besides groceries, his line of crockery, glassware, hardware, etc., is extensive and of latest designs. All at prices as cheap as the cheapest. Baseball The Boys in Blue suffered their first defeat at baseball in two seasons on the Lemon street grounds on Sunday afternoon, Olive proving victorious by a score of 9 to 8. The boys have played 25 games, winning 24 of them. This is a record of which they may well feel proud. The boys take no whitof credit from Olive for their defeat, but are anxious for another game. They have a challenge from the Olinda oil wells to play a game on the home grounds next Thursday afternoon. Langley Will Contest E.T. Langley has begun an action against H.C. Head contesting the latter's election as district attorney. The majority given Head was only 45, and Langley alleges that votes were illegally counted for his opponent in a number of precincts. Langley asks for a recount of all the votes. The supervisors have issued a certificate of election to Head, and this will serve to complicate matters further. If the case is carried to the highest court years may elapse before a final decision is arrived at, and in the meantime Head will be drawing down the salary. There has been some talk about J.C. Joplin contesting W.G. Potter's election as treasuer, but it is not thought he will take the case into court. For the Smoky City Mr. Fiscus contemplates a trip shortly to Pittsburg, to be gone a few weeks. He may defer the erection of his residence on Los Angeles street until his return, although he will begin building the barn this week. He intends putting up a $2000 residence, which he will rent or sell when completed. He will probably erect others upon his return, believing them to be a good investment. Mr.Fiscus goes east in response to the wishes of his father, who has been in feeble health and is 87. The old gentleman is the owner of numerous gas wells, the product of which he disposes of to the city of Pittsburg for heating and lighting purposes. Mrs.P.Pfeninger and son John and daughter, Miss Emma, who have been staying at their ranch for the past three weeks, have returned to their home in Los Angeles. L.J.Johnson, recently from Cripple Creek, Colo., has purchased the Thomas Rawlins place in West Anaheim for $21,000. Mr.Rawlins will engage extensively in the poultry business. Robert Clabaugh and A.G.Clabaugh, father and brother of J.H.Clabaugh of the Santa Fe, have arrived from the East, accompanied by their families, and will make this their home. William Schumacher has disposed of his billboard business in Fullerton and this city to a joint stock company lately formed in Los Angeles. He retains an interest in the new corporation, which will immediately erect large bulletin boards in the two towns, as well as at Santa Ana. He will be in charge of operations in these towns, and will soon be in a position to put up some perfectly gorgeous posters. To Protect Forests Forty men of the field force of the bureau of forestry have left Washington for Southeastern Texas, where they will prepare the working plans for the lands of the Kirby lumber company. Thomas L. Sherrard, expert on southern pines, will be in charge of the party. The men will be established in three camps. They expect to remain in Texas until early in the spring of 1903. The operations of the Kirby lumber company are as large as any lumber company in the world. Its forests cover over 1,250,000 acres of pine lands, which contain about 80 per cent of all the long-leaf pines in Texas. It is a vast body of forestry, reaching out over seven counties, uninterrupted except where space has been cleared around the villages and farms which it encloses. The forest is estimated to contain 6,250,000,000 feet of merchantable lumber. The preliminary examinations were made last winter at the request of representatives of the company, which has decided that to protect itself it must adopt a system of forestry. Large as its fields are, unless property managed and protected they must sooner or later be exhausted. Groceries Notice the change in Mr. Dickel's advertisement. He has one of the finest displays of seasonable groceries to be found anywhere. Dickel's stock compares favorably with any in Southern California, and is a credit to Anaheim and Orange county.

Alex Henry brought out his cannon on Saturday evening at Caledonia Grove and fired a salute in honor of Pardee's election as governor. Alex was ready to awaken the echoes the night of the election, but owing to the closeness of the vote, determined to await receipt of later returns. These being sufficient to satisfy him, he turned the cannon loose, and the booming was heard far and near. Alex entertained his friends in his usual hospitable fashion, and the evening was one of unalloyed enjoyment. James S. Berry, an employee of the Edison Gas and Electric company at Santa Ana, was asphyxiated while repairing a gas main leading to the residence of A. R. Rowley late on Wednesday afternoon of last week. He was overcome by a sudden rush of gas as he was bending into a pit to get at the pipe. Berry was alone, and before his plight was discovered he perished. He was 50 years of age, and leaves a widow, two sons and two daughters. He had lived in Santa Ana twenty years, and for four years had been in the employ of the Edison company.

EATON An Irrigator Asks Some Pointed Questions Relative to the Turndown of This Enterprise EDITOR GAZETTE:—What are Mr. Eaton's reasons for his condemnation of the Yorba reservoir? He says the dam will go out the first time water is permitted to raise up against it, but he fails to give any reasons for saying so. The stockholders of the Anaheim Union Water company want to know what the defects are. Let Mr. Eaton explain and show where it is faulty, and then we will have something to consider. Otherwise we do not think he has given us any information worth considering. A mere statement based on cursory examination is nothing. We have the opinion of two other engineers, to the effect that it is one of the best reservoir sites in all Southern California, and these opinions are backed up by facts showing what the formation at that point is and how the dam can be constructed so that it will stand. Also that the best of material is right there on the site for the construction of the dam. Mr. Sherwood also condemned the site and opposed it, accounts of which stockholders will find splendidly set forth in the GAZETTE. After spending quite a sum of our money in making investigations that had already been made in a thorough manner, and made plain so that a schoolboy could understand them, he simply agrees in the end with the other engineers, who have already said that it is a first-class site. He even goes farther and says the dam may be built ten feet higher than Mr. Kellogg suggested. This irrigators will find by reading the GAZETTE of Sept. 25th, or by going to the files of the proceedings of the board meeting of the 20th of that month. And after all this waste of time and money, he secures the services of Mr. Eaton to come down here, and he condemns the Yorba dam site, in the face of all the facts we have in the matter. Now we want Mr. Eaton to show us what the defects are in the site that it will not hold. Several fills on the Cajon canal are about as large as the dam proposed here, and they stood all right. The water passed over them in storm chutes. Therefore we will need something more than empty statements to convince us that a EFFECT OF BIRD LIFE UPON AGRICULTURE A Timely Bulletin Issued by the Agricultural Department Containing Matters of Interest to Farmers We have been favored with a copy of a pamphlet on the influence of bird life upon horticultural products, from which we take the following extracts. The subject has been touched upon before, but is of such importance to farmers that it is worthy a reperusal here. The careful scientific investigation of the effect of bird life upon the agricultural and horticultural products of the country, conducted by the United States Department of Agriculture, and extending through a series of years, has proven many generally accepted theories to be nothing more than fallacious opinions, growing out of superficial and careless observations. These scientific investigations, conducted in the most thorough manner, have established beyond doubt that many of the practices resorted to by the agriculturist in his belief in the destructiveness of bird life to growing fruits and grains have materially lessened instead of increased the product. In no case is this truer than in the destruction of meadowlarks found in grain-fields. The farmer, seeing the meadowlarks feeding in his grain-fields and finding many of the young shoots apparently pulled up, readily accepts the theory that the little lark is the depredator, and at once begins a crusade against him, without that investigation necessary to arrive at the true facts of the case. The department of agriculture, however, has come to his assistance, and after an exhaustive investigation has pronounced the meadowlark the industrious and hard-working servant of the grain-raiser. The examination of upward of four thousand stomachs of meadowlarks killed in fields of young grain showed them to be feeding exclusively upon cutworms, with an occasional grasshopper and grubworm. A careful examination also of the sprigs of grain that had been pulled up revealed the fact that they had already been cut off by the cutworm, and, having no roots to hold them, came up with the worm that the meadowlark had eaten and prevented from finishing its work. Dozens of these worms were found, yet undigested, in the stomach of one lark. Who can estipersonal mention L. W. Kirby was in town from Peralta on Saturday.
