STRIKES AND SPARES INVOGUE Bowling Fad Reaches Town and the Average Citizen, Coatless and Perspiring. Sets Out to Break Me-Grath's Record The town has gone blooming mad over bowling. Not since ping pong came down the pike has the average citizen been in such a giddy whirl of excitement, and nothing has occasioned such talk since John Hartung starled the town with his tenor solo, "Still His Whiskers Grew." Polo and golf are forgotten and automobiling is in the seer and yellow leaf. Even Henry Smith's motor cycle is a bad second to the new craze that has come to town. Everything is strikes, spares, splits and errors, and if you don't understand the game or how to score, just call at this office and we'll explain the whole business to you. What we don't know about it would fill quite a large volume. Joe Backs and Ed Bustamente are the only two men in town who claim to be able to score the game; each has a different system, and Mons. Champagne informs us privately neither one knows a thing about it like they do in that dear Paris. We have written our family, who are traveling abroad for their health, to remain away until further notice; for existence, once such an unhappy lot, has been transformed into a rare delight since bowling came to town. A strike counts a player ten, but you don't put it down, only a cross on the scoreboard made with a soft blue pencil. A strike gives the player two balls for the next frame, but as according to the rules of the game a player is entitled to two balls to each frame anyhow, we fail to perceive where the boasted advantages of a strike come in. A spare counts ten, same as a strike, but the ten isn't put down, and the player gets an extra ball for the next frame, but, mark you, as none of these extra balls are ever used, the devil himself can't tell where the advantage comes in. Scorer Brown, who scored the big game Saturday evening, says the system will come to one that quick (like the snap of the finger, when once one catches on to it). Brown used to kick a job press for Andy Fuhrberg when Andy ran a printing office in darkest and bleariest conditions. YORBA RESERVOIR: A WORD ABOUT REFORMERS Sherwood Up Long Enough to Go Kellogg Ten Feet Better in the Dam—Then Came Eaton EDITOR GAZETTE:—The communication of "Stockholder" in your last week's issue brings to my mind the proceedings of the board of directors the past year. When Engineer Kellogg and Mr. Sorenson made their examination of the Yorba reservoir site, twelve or fifteen years ago, their conclusion was that a fifty-foot dam was not practicable, but that a forty-foot dam was safe and feasible. But after Mr. Sherwood and his supporters had succeeded in shoving Kellogg aside, treating all his work with supreme contempt, the former went over the same ground (at the expense of the company), only to corroborate Kellogg's plan. Then he woke up long enough to go Kellogg ten feet better in the height of the dam. Sherwood wanted more expert opinion, and so took Mr. Eaton there to have his judgment on the fifty-foot dam. This Eaton promptly condemned. Had Sherwood asked Eaton's opinion upon the feasibility of a forty-foot dam he could not have been so prompt in his cohdenation, and the probability is strong that his report would have been favorable. If this reform (?) majority was not elected especially to defeat the building of this reservoir, why have not these men shown some ability in other directions? For instance, why have they not extended the ditch up to the Narrows with the Santa Ana company? Or, if they are mind-readers and consequently knew the Santa Ana company was going to gouge us, why did they not move toward the cementing of the main ditch? If this did not fall in with their ideas of "reform," Mr. Fay's plan for the development of water at the head of the Anaheim ditch might have interested them. Even a pumping plant or a hole in the river and a small boy with a bucket carrying water and putting it into the ditch would have been an indication to the long-suffering Will Have His Goose at Festal Board Today But Berdrow Was Willing to Forego It In Order to Buy That Beautiful Span of Black Mules The Board of City Trustees met in regular session on Tuesday evening; present, Trustees Schneider, Berdrow and Weisel; absent, Rust and Fletcher. Clerk Merritt read the minutes of the last meeting, which, on motion, were approved as read. Trustee Berdrow reported approval of bills against the city amounting to $543.37. Warrants were ordered drawn in payment therefor. Trustee Weisel reported the grading of various streets and water connections made; also that the sidewalk on West Center street had been repaired. Trustee Berdrow reported in the matter of the city tank, that a tank could be purchased in Los Angeles at $75. He thought the one now in use could be repaired. Part of it he said he could repair himself. He also reported, in the matter of a sidewalk on Lemon street, he had seen Mr. Groat in Los Angeles, who said he would not give deed for the walk unless a cement curb were constructed. A wooden curb, Groat said, would wear out in a few years and would have to be replaced. Mr. Bennerscheidt said his sidewalk line was not the same as Mr. Dickel's. He agreed to move back three feet if the other property owners did so. Trustee Schneider said he would not favor constructing sidewalk on street lines. He said he did not see how the city could construct a sidewalk unless property-owners agreed as to width of same and execute deeds to property for it. The matter went over without action until next meeting. Clerk Merritt read a letter from Harris & Falkenstein to the effect that they have been using lights from 4:30 to 6, excepting on Saturday evening; during December, beginning on the 4th, they expect to use the lights according to the present schedule, after which they will go back to the hour of early closing. For their new store they wish a meter installed. Other letters were read from business. to two balls to each frame anyhow, we fail to perceive where the boasted advantages of a strike come in. A spare counts ten, same as a strike, but the ten isn't put down, and the player gets an extra ball for the next frame, but, mark you, as none of these extra balls are ever used, the devil himself can't tell where the advantage comes in. Scorer Brown, who scored the big game Saturday evening, says the system will come to one that quick (like the snap of the finger, when once one catches on to it). Brown used to kick a job press for Andy Fuhrberg when Andy ran a printing office in darkest Los Angeles, but he has reformed and is now instructor in bowling in that wicked town. Manager Fitzmier of the local bowling links says the reason we don't savvy the difference between strikes and spares is because we don't savvy the game. Dr. Houch and Fred Backs took sixty cents' worth of fall out of Hugo Strodthoff and Johnny Selinger, and lay claim to the title of team champions of the town and are open to all challenges. The alley beds are the finest in Southern California. They are 85 feet in length over all, 63 feet to the foul line, and are highly polished. The beds are constructed of maple, planed each way several times, sand-papered, shellacked and polished. It took a gang of expert workmen two weeks to prepare them for business. There are three alleys and the cost of each is said to be $800. The total cost of fitting up the establishment is about $3000. The alleys were opened on Saturday evening, when two teams from Los Angeles (the Oaks and Coliseums) contested for honors. Five games were played, the Oaks taking the odd. The Oaks trio was composed of Dysinger, Clark and Conery. Clark is the Ed Clark who formerly taught school here. He has quit the school room and gone to bowling, at which he is no slouch. The Coliseums embraced McGrath, Dee and Koller. McGrath holds the coast record, 297, made in Los Angeles recently against an eastern man, who scored 287. McGrath's score consisted of 11 straight strikes, three pins being missed in the last frame. The highest possible score is 300. McGrath was not at himself on Saturday night. He complained of a lame back and only went on at the solicitation of Mr. Simpson, manager of the Los Angeles headquarters of the Brunswick-Balkie-Collender establishment, which put the alleys in. In the fourth game, with the score standing 2 to 1 in favor of the Oaks and a chance for the Coliseums to tie it, his unintentional foul cost his team the game and the match, the foul costing him 30 points. He made a clean strike, but having overstepped the foul lice, his score for that frame was rejected. The final score of the game was: Oaks 509, Coliseums 500. Dysinger won second place in the two-man tournament at Buffalo last spring. Dee was the youngest of the lot, beating the oldest of the lot, tended the ditch up to the Narrows with the Santa Ana company? Or, if they are mind-readers and consequently knew the Santa Ana company was going to gouge us, why did they not move toward the cementing of the main ditch? If this did not fall in with their ideas of "reform," Mr. Fay's plan for the development of water at the head of the Anaheim ditch might have interested them. Even a pumping plant or a hole in the river and a small boy with a bucket carrying water and putting it into the ditch would have been an indication to the long-suffering stockholders that some effort was being made toward progress by the reformers. But the year has almost gone and what has been accomplished beyond the spending of several thousand dollars, and no effort of any kind for our betterment apparent. For pity's sake, tell us what they were elected for, if not simply to defeat the building of the reservoir as well as all other progressive plans for the improvement of the company. A. PIEROTTI. CHAPMAN'S ORANGES The California Fruit Grower has a special wire from its New York agent relative to a sale of Old Mission (Placentia) oranges as follows: New York, Nov. 20.—Messrs. P. Ruhman & Co. of this city sold yesterday a car of Old Mission brand of Valencia Late oranges from your State which is a record-breaker. The car contained 71 boxes of fancy and 291 boxes of choice, 362 boxes in all, which grossed the handsome sum of $3124.38. The fahoy averaged $10.87 and the choice $8.07 per box. This is remarkable indeed the most remarkable sale ever held, beating all former straight carload sales by $562. To properly appreciate the character of this sale, it should be remembered that several thousand barrels of Jamaica oranges have recently been sold at from $4 to $4.75 per barrel, and Florida oranges, which are now in heavy receipt, selling at $2.50, and from that figure up to $3.50 per box. Let Californians take these circumstances into consideration, and then ask themselves whether or no the sale alluded to is not wonderful. These oranges were raised by C.C. Chapman on his Placentia ranch, which has grown more "record-breaking" fruit probably than any other tract in California. CELERY SHIPMENTS Activity continues in the marketing of the association celery, and the demand for the Thanksgiving trade has exceeded the supply. In fact a few cars that were sent out the first of the week contained celery not fully mature, although care has been taken to avoid this as much as possible. This difficulty will be out of the way after the present week, however, as there will be a sufficient supply of the mature product to make the shipment of any green celery unnecessary. Everything ready to ship in time for the Thanksgiving market was closed out by the association, and some orders were allowed to go unfilled on account of the lack of celery in proper condition for shipment. For Thanksgiving demands the association has supplied 70 cars and the Earl Fruit company 20 Clerk Merritt reported the purchase of a lathe for the power house at price of $99 from L.E.Miller. Price quoted by Los Angeles firm, $11 Saving by the city by patronizing home house, $11. Weisel reported one of the old horses gathered to his fathers. All buried. Berdrow reported he was looking around for another horse. He had looked at a span of mules, for $350, b owner would not take the remaining horse in exchange. A man in L.Angles had imported two carloads Brunswick-Balke-Collender establishment, which put the alleys in. In the fourth game, with the score standing 2 to 1 in favor of the Oaks and a chance for the Coliseums to tie it, his unintentional foul cost his team the game and the match, the foul costing him 30 points. He made a clean strike, but having overstepped the foul line, his score for that frame was rejected. The final score of the game was: Oaks 509, Coliseums 500. Dysinger won second place in the two-man tournament at Buffalo last spring. Dee was the youngest of the lot, being a kid, but is one of the best bowlers in Los Angeles. The men are considered the best bowlers in Southern California. The score, as compiled by Scorer Bob Brown, is as follows: OAKS TRIO. Games: 1 2 3 4 5 Average Dysinger ...164 192 169 165 176 $173 l-5 Clark ...181 159 180 158 155 166 l-5 Conery ...186 168 166 186 181 177 l-5 Totals ...331 519 515 509 512 High roll, Dysinger: 192.

Fisher, all bowlers from away back. A crowd of several hundred spectators gathered to witness the tournament, and had a rare treat. Manager Fitzmier states that he will have special evenings for ladies. In the east bowling has become quite a fad among the ladies, and it has reached the coast. In Los Angeles many of the ladies of the smart set bowl. Tomorrow night (Friday) and Monday will be ladies' nights. Manager Fitzmier extends a cordial invitation to the ladies to be present and participate in the intricacies of the game. Young Pigs for Sale Very fine.

APPLES GOING TO WASTE Farmers in the extreme eastern part of Washington and along the Idaho line are awakening to the fact that apples are a scarce commodity on the Pacific coast this fall. They have been letting apples rot on the ground by tens of thousands of boxes. Local markets in Eastern Washington are overstocked, and in the hurry of selling the wheat crop, little attention has been paid to the great yield of apples. Around Waitsburg, Summit, Touchett and Huntsville farmers have been turning their hogs into the orchards to let them fatten on the apples which have fallen to the ground. The publication early this week of the fact that California dealers have gone to that State to buy apples caused farmers to commence saving apples that are still on the trees. Agents of California buyers have crossed the mountains to inspect the quality of the fruit going to waste, and the probability is that some of it will be shipped to the California market. Will Dance Tonight Company E's Thanksgiving ball will engage the attention of the young folks tonight at the armory. It bids fair to be the swellest event of the season.

Weisel reported the grading streets and water connectealso that the sidewalk on our street had been repaired. Berdrow reported in the city tank, that a tank purchased in Los Angeles at thought the one now in the repaired. Part of it he old repair himself. Reported, in the matter of a Lemon street, he had seen in Los Angeles, who said he give deed for the walk uncent curb were constructed.

Berdritt read a letter from Falkenstein to the effect have been using lights from accepting on Saturday evenning December, beginning on they expect to use the lights to the present schedule, which they will go back to the early closing. For their new wish a meter installed. National Game Olive skinned Loara at baseball on the Lemon-street grounds on Sunday the city was always having trouble with horses. Marshal Steadman reported one horse being rented from Mr. Bustamente, at $1 per day. He has had it four days, and can only have it four days more, as the owner wants to use it himself. The matter was left to Berdrow to buy the span of mules in Los Angeles, both black, and a rattling fine team. He was authorized to take the city horse up and make the trade. Clerk Merritt was instructed to telephone early in the morning to hold the team until Berdrow can come up with the city horse. Berdrow said he had a fat goose for Thanksgiving dinner, but he was willing to forego it to get the span of mules. Weisel moved Berdrow go up on Wednesday to get the mules and have his goose for dinner on Thursday. Seconded by Berdrow and carried. Clerk Merritt reported that a warrant had been drawn in favor of Father Dubbel, in amount $350, for city lot adjoining city power house. Approved. O. P. Bunyard deposited $50 for moving Higgins' old drug store. He broke a city electric arc, for which he was charged $1. Forty-nine dollars were ordered returned. Bills to the amount of $543.57 were audited and ordered paid. A communication was read from Prof. Taylor, president of city library trustees, thanking the city trustees for appropriation for library. Politics The Republican county central committee, in session at Santa Ana on Saturday, requested the resignation of Charley Norman, central committee man at West Anaheim, for his alleged knifing of Billy Hale, candidate for supervisor. Norman has been road boss for a number of years, and points to the fact that Hale's vote was the same as Pardee's in the precinct, and that the charges are brought against him by personal enemies. He has served notice upon Postmaster Duckworth to vacate his premises at the West End, and will open a store in opposition to him therein. PERSONAL MENTION W. H. Blenerhassett was a business visitor in town yesterday from Los Angeles. C. N. Whitaker of Monrovia has been appointed steward at the Highland asylum. Victor Browning was in town on Saturday paying his water assessment and looking pleasant. George Carroll has returned from Norwalk, the beet-shipping season having terminated. Five hundred tons of beets were shipped to Chino from that point. Leland Lewis, the young son of A. L. Lewis, who has been sick with diphtheria for ten days past, is reported to be improving and will doubtless soon be recovered. George Heffner came in from Pomona the other day. He says that town is dryer'n dust. Two fellows were fined $25 each last week for coming out of a "club." George operates a lunch wagon and reports business good. Judge Ballard in the Superior court on Thursday, in the Kraemer divorce case, sustained the objection of defendant to motion of plaintiff that the case be reopened for additional testimony. Leave to renew the motion was, after argument of counsel, granted. Fisherman Bush reports the highest tides along the coast in years. As a consequence he had no fish several days last week. Fishermen could not get over the breakers in their boats, and as a consequence the fish market was dull. At the Landing the waves washed away the porch of Tim Carrol's bungalow. Mrs. J. K. Grigsby, wife of the Garden Grove postmaster, was adjudged to be insane and was sent to an insane asylum in the northern part of the State. The unfortunate woman suffers from the delusion that her life is threatened by unseen foes, and her husband fears that she may commit suicide. It is hoped that by careful treatment at the hospital she may recover her health. Otto Strodthoff dropped in from Jerome quite unexpectedly a day or two ago, and departs again tomorrow. Just for Thanksgiving turkey and to see the old folks, Ot says, but some of us know better.

Mrs S M Owens and J W Owens National Game Olive skinned Loara at baseball on the Lemon-street grounds on Sunday afternoon by a score of 6 to 2. The West Enders were never a serious factor in the argument. Features of the game were Meats' batting and Lanfranc's work in the box, both being up-river kids. Crane, the West End pitcher, retired in favor of Carson in the fifth. Chile Fischer kept score and Edward Bustamante umpired. Today the local kids (Boys in Blue) play Olive. Each nine has won one game from the other. Out of 25 games played by the kids they have lost but one, and that to the strenuous lads from Olive. The game ought to be a good one. On the home grounds. On Sunday the kids play the big birds from the oil wells, under the captaincy of Filigree Burke, the great foothill shortstop, Runaway Mrs. Frank Eastman while delivering mail on her route of rural delivery west of town on Friday afternoon sustained severe bruises and narrowly escaped fatal injury in the runaway of her horse, which took fright at a passing burro packed with a miner's outfit. The horse broke the shafts and the lady was thrown under its heels, the animal kicking violently meanwhile. Passersby went to her assistance and she was extricated from her dangerous position. S. K. Holman was passing at the time and he volunteered to take her and the mail on the continuation of her route. The offer was accepted, the mail delivered and return made to town in time to catch the outgoing mail. Mrs. Eastman was injured about the arm by the fall. As she lay upon the horse she hoof graze her hat the last time he kicked. She was otherwise unharmed. Shipping Tomatoes Manager Boyd has a force of packers at work at the cannery sorting and preparing tomatoes for shipment East. Each tomato is wrapped in tissue paper, much the same as oranges are packed. There is great demand for these winter vegetables and the crop will be shipped as long as the vines continue to bear. Many crates have been shipped by express this week. Clair A reception for the Rev. T. Johnston of the Clair M. E. church, was held in the home of J. M. Gilbert on Saturday evening. A splendid dinner, embracing several courses, was the principal feature of the evening. An appropriate address of welcome was knifing of Billy Hale, candidate for supervisor. Norman has been road boss for a number of years, and points to the fact that Hale's vote was the same as Pardee's in the preinct, and that the charges are brought against him by personal enemies. He has served notice upon Postmaster Duckworth to vacate his premises at the West End, and will open a store in opposition to him therein. Otto Strodthoff dropped in from Jerome quite unexpectedly a day or two ago, and departs again tomorrow. Just for Thanksgiving turkey and to see the old folks, Ot says, but some of us know better. He will make another trip here about the first of the year and then the rascal will bear away with him one of the prettiest girls in Orange county. Anaheim boys ought to go away back and sit down. M. L. Rogers has delayed his departure for the East until after the gathering of his walnut crop. Now that this crop has been shipped, he informs he has a crop of potatoes coming on which he will have to thresh before his departure, which will probably not be delayed more than a week or so. He goes to Monrovia today to take Thanksgiving dinner with friends. He goes thence to San Francisco to visit with his sons, and leaves early next month for the East.

Johnston of the Clair M. E. church, was held in the home of J. M. Gilbert on Saturday evening. A splendid dinner, embracing several courses, was the principal feature of the evening. An appropriate address of welcome was read to the new minister, who, by the way, stands head and shoulders, physically, morally and intellectually, above the average preacher who has been wont to abound here. Mr. Johnston made a suitable reply to the address of welcome. Since his advent to Clair the congregation has more than doubled in numbers, and its finances, which had dropped down to nil, have soared up, leaving a balance in the hands of the treasurer. Great things are prophesied regarding Mr. Johnston's pastorate, and whether they be fulfilled or not, he has certainly struck a splendid keynote. That he is a preacher of more than ordinary ability goes without saying. The rain has put the fields in splendid condition, and the soil needs only to be tickled in order to yield the largest barley crop in the history of Orange county. Several large sowings have been already made, and in a drive of a couple of miles on Monday we counted about 100 acres which had been sown before the rains, and is now two inches above the soil. The rains have reduced the price of hay from $9 down to $7. Adrian Blizzard and Miss Carrie Norton were married Thursday at the Friends' church. There was a basket dinner and a very enjoyable time in connection with the service. Bob Rankin has purchased the Gothard place and built a barn. In future the Sunday school at Clair will be held at 2 p.m., instead of 2:30. The preaching service will begin at 3 p.m. Frost A light frost Thursday night nipped sweet potato vines. Peppers and tomatoes escaped unhurt. Clair A reception for the Rev. T. Johnston of the Clair M. E. church, was held in the home of J. M. Gilbert on Saturday evening.
