The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. HENRY KUCHEL. Editor and Proprietor THURSDAY...APRIL 30, 1903 ALEXANDER HENRY has accomplished a bit of good work for the orange-growers of this section, for which he is just now receiving the praises of the entire community. In the recent orange merger, whereby the exchange and independent shippers agreed to combine and forward fruit under one management, it had been agreed so it now transpires, to concentrate shipments from this part of the county at Fullerton, and discontinue operations at packing-houses here. Fred Knight, the gentlemanly agent of the Ruddock-Trench Fruit Company, who had maintained headquarters here for upwards of a year, was to be transferred to Covina and the business of the new organization in this vicinity, it had been mapped out, was to have been under control of Messrs. Cunningham and Davis of Fullerton. Orange-growers hereabout, who viewed with great satisfaction the organization of the merger, were turned against it first, when they learned that Mr. Knight was to be transferred from this section and the packing-houses closed, and second, when it was revealed to them that all oranges would have to be hauled to Fullerton for shipment. To a man they rebelled against the new order, and Mr. Henry was selected to go to Los Angeles to lay their claims before the officers of the new association. He obtained a conference with Mr. Fay, one of the gentlemen in authority, and when he had laid the case fully be fore him was informed that he had and, union or no union, it is pleasant to reflect that his work of railway construction is going on unhampered by this vicious and uncalled for strike. Birthday Celebration In accordance with a time-honored custom of the family, the children, grand children, great grand children and a few intimate friends of Mr. Geo. W. Sparks, were hospitably entertained at dinner April 27th on the occasion, and in honor of his eighty-fourth birthday at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Sparks, West Anaheim. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Sparks, Mr. and Mrs. C. G. Sparks, Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Sparks of Anaheim; Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Sparks, Mr. and Mrs. G. F. Sparks of Los Alamitos; Mr. and Mrs. T. W. Carter of Perris; Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Keller of San Bernardino; Mr. and Mrs. B. A. Anuin and son, Mr. and Mrs. G. I. Thompson and children of Fullerton; Mr. and Mrs. P. F.Wremer and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Carter and children, John A. Sparks, Cy Carter, Fred Sparks, and Masters Claude, Gene and Albert Sparks, Misses Grace, Blanche, Nellie, Callie and Sura Sparks, Arthur Parke, Arthur Schunk, Miss L. Ball, Mrs. Nelson and sons, Miss Elvina Wless and Master James Wiess. The dining room was tastefully decorated with palms, ferns and a profusion of locust blooms; the tables beautifully embellished with roses, callas, carnations and smilax, fairly groaned under the loads of everything pertaining to the welfare of the inner man notably roast turkey, goose and chickens, with their several dressings and gravies; boiled ham, potatoes, salads, bread, butter, pickles, fruits and jellies, also ten large delicious cakes which latter were served with ice cream for desert. At 11:30 a.m. an artist from Anaheim photographed the tables, and later Mr. Sparks, with his seven children—five sons and two daughters—with their husbands and wives, fifteen grandchildren and six great grandchildren grouped about him, after which dinner was announced, claiming BOARD OF SUPERVISORS. The Home Telephone Company telephone franchise was again by the Supervisors Tuesday,and its division began with the morning session For the Supervisors had prepaired since the last meeting a franchise take the place of the one refused the applicant some time ago,and this latest one,had cut down amount asked to be paid by the cant in a lump sum from forty hundred dollars to one thousand dollars.Another condition in this franchise was that free telephones shall be given the county for alland the last,但 not least consist of the proposed franchise was that company to which it shall be shall pay to the county three per cent of its gross earnings annually.franchise was flatly refusedthe applicant and he and interested were on the point of ing the room when they were back and asked to prepare something that might be more suitable,brought before the Board later session This was done,and theretooon another franchise was presented by the company in which specified that the county shall be the free use of six telephones for years,by agreement,and in theof the franchise itselfwas,a providing that when ten residents of the county shall petition the cofor the installation of a tel along the line,the company shall apply with their request.The per cent clause was also in this chise,and the further provisionthe Supervisors shall put it up as it to the highest bidder.But man McMullen seemed bound to by the franchise as prepared by Board,不withstanding the fact its provisions had been declaredthe applicant to be impossible acceptance,and in line with his ing determination to put the franchise in the best possible had that document read first and awards ordered the one preparedapplicant read for purposes of To a man they rebelled against the new order, and Mr. Henry was selected to go to Los Angeles to lay their claims before the officers of the new association. He obtained a conference with Mr. Fay, one of the gentlemen in authority, and when he had laid the case fully be fore him was informed that he had presented a truly knotty problem for solution. Mr. Henry pointed out the fact that it would cost local growers two cents a box to haul their oranges to Fullerton, and that the loss consequent to bruising the fruit would amount to perhaps a good deal more. He added that rather than submit to these harsh conditions not a grower in this section would agree to ship their fruit in the combine. He shipped last season thirty carloads of orange from his grove at Caledonia, and these, he declared, would under these conditions absolutely never be under the new mergers control. Mr. Fay, after consultation with his associates in the management of the new association, first agreed that Mr. Knight should be continued here indefinitely, that local packing houses should remain open for business, and after further consideration of the subject agreed that all fruits previously shipped from Anaheim should continue to be packed and forwarded from this point. Mr. Henry returned with quite a feather in his cap. He handled the matter admirably, and is now receiving the congratulations of his friends and neighbors: That a union of cholo laborers should have been organized in Los Angeles by the walking delegates of the council of labor would be rather a laughing matter were it not for the alarming consequences that might come of it. These alien peons, of whom it may be said they are in the country in defiance of immigration laws, probably never heard of a labor union before in their lives. Recently hundreds of them have been brought into the state as contract laborers by the railroad companies. Some four or five hundred of them have been engaged upon Mr. Huntington's electric railway. They were paid at the rate of 17 cents an hour. In their happy homes beyond the Rio Grande they probably never earned half so much before. The pernicious walking delegate, who is usually an anarchist transferred from this section and the packing-houses closed, and second, when it was revealed to them that all oranges would have to be hauled to Fullerton for shipment.

Mr. Henry returned with quite a feather in his cap. He handled the matter admirably, and is now receiving the congratulations of his friends and neighbors: Remember Grant. GALENA, Ill., April 28.-Yesterday the eleventh successive celebration of Grant's birthday was held here. The city was decorated in honor of the great hero and the beautiful weather brought many visitors. The noon train on the Illinois Central from Chicago brought the special guests of the day from that city, who joined in the commemoration. The chief feature of the program was an address at Turner Hall by Hon. W. E. Gurley of Omaha, whose delineation of the character and achievements of General Grant were enthusiastically received. From that same platform on previous anniversaries Presidents McKinley and Roosevelt, and Charles Emory Smith had spoken. After the conclusion of the exercises, the visitors viewed Nast's great painting, hung in the public library, and the statue of Grant, given to the city by H. H. Kohlssatt of Chicago and dedicated by Chauncey M. Depew. The military band and Company M., Illinois national guard, acted as escorting to the welfare of the inner man, notably roast turkey, goose and chickens, with their several dressings and gravies; boiled ham, potatoes, salads, bread, butter, pickles, fruits and jellies, also ten large delicious cakes which latter were served with ice cream for desert. At 11:30 a.m. an artist from Anaheim photographed the tables, and later Mr. Sparks, with his seven children—five sons and two daughters—with their husbands and wives, fifteen grandchildren and six great grandchildren grouped about him, after which dinner was announced, claiming the undivided attention of the guest for perhaps an hour and a half, after which music and games. Geo. W. Sparks was born 84 years ago on the 27th of April, in Blount county, Alabama, and when quite a child moved with his parents to the neighborhood of Columbus, Mississippi where he resided until 1846, when he with his wife and two children started on his journey west. Only "pioneers" understand the perils, and hardships endured by the members of a wagon train traveling over the wilds of plain desert and mountain toward the land of the setting sun. He spent the first winter after leaving home at Fort Pueblo, Col., the second winter in Salt Lake, and then came to Northern California, where he resided until 1857 when he moved with his family to San Bernardino and to Anaheim in 1895. Mr. Sparks has always had more or less farm and stock interests, and while within the past seven years he has given up farming he still owns his pastures and personally attends to a score or more head of stock with seemingly less effort than many younger men. We congratulate him and hope to meet again in reunion next year and find him as well as now. Until then May God be with him is the wish of his family and friends. Mr. McMullen accepted their invitation but stuck to the statement that Sunset Telephone Company agreed to furnish the county here with telephone service time, until he was again set by the information that there has not a scratch of a penny on the Sunset Company to anything that corporation may not see of its own accord. This law section was made by Judge who appeared for the Home T Company, and who in a strong ward talk, endeavored to make to the Supervisors that the co-owner which applicant was we agree were enough in all cases to satisfy any reasonable person. Supervisor Smith moved to franchise B, or the franchise by the applicant in substitution franchise prepared by the Board motion was lost by a vote to two, Smith and Fulsome Aye. The franchise prepared Board was also defeated by this time McMullen and Ger voting Aye. Supervisor man at some length defined by stating that he would franchise as asked for by aplicant if it were accompanied agreement granting the course of charge six telephones five years. The Chairman then recessed of ten minutes to mutual agreement could not be Recently hundreds of them have been brought into the state as contract laborers by the railroad companies. Some four or five hundred of them have been engaged upon Mr. Huntington's electric railway. They were paid at the rate of 17 cents an hour. In their happy homes beyond the Rio Grande they probably never earned half so much before. The pernicious walking delegate, who is usually an anarchistic socialist of the most pronounced type, gathered these chaps into a so-called union and a strike was called in a demand for a raise of wages to 20 cents per hour. Their request was promptly refused and their places as promptly filled with other working men. The fact that this cholo union has the moral support of the council of labor would seem to indicate that these vicious aliens have the sympathy of the skilled American labor now associated together in a score of other labor organizations. That fact must have all the ear marks of absurdity upon its face. As well might the walking delegate go into Chinatown and organize the highbinders into a union of their own. As a matter of fact it is doubtful whether the Chinese are not more entitled to such attention than the peons. These cholos are now out of work, and a very serious and threatening problem presents itself. Any unlawful act upon their part must needs reflect upon all other labor organizations, which should bring the blush of shame to the face of the average American workman. We doubt very much if intelligent workingmen can view the case with other than humiliation and disgust. It was a mistake to organize this union of ignorant and vicious aliens, and the sooner the wrong is righted, the better it will be for all persons concerned. Mr. Huntington is engaged in a work of great magnitude; his success means much to the entire state whose delineation of the character and achievements of General Grant were enthusiastically received. From that same platform on previous anniver saries Presidents McKinley and Roosevelt, and Charles Emory Smith had spoken. After the conclusion of the exercise, the visitors viewed Nast's great painting, hung in the public library, and the statue of Grant, given to the city by H. H. Kohlsatt of Chicago and dedicated by Chauncey M. Depew. The military band and Company M, Illinois national guard, acted as escort for the speaker to the hall. Rev John Vandervee, late of Cole College Cedar Rapids, Iowa, acted as chaplain. NEW YORK, April 28. — William Randolph Hearst was quietly married this morning at 11 o'clock to Miss Millicent Wilson, in Grace Church Bishop Potter officiated. The church was beautifully decorated with American Beauty roses. The bride's father gave the bride away. Her sister was bridesmaid. Orrin Peck, the well known artist of San Francisco was Hearst's best man. A large number of relatives and friends witnessed the ceremony. An elaborate wedding breakfast at the Waldorf Astoria followed the ceremony. The bride is the daughter of George Wilson, President of the American Advance Music Company, and is 21 years of age. The groom is 39 years old. The bride's presents were beautiful and costly, chief among them being a rope of pearls from Mrs. Phoebe Hearst. The couple sailed for Europe this afternoon on the Kaiser Wilhelm Second. Herbine Cures Fever and ague. A dose will usually stop a chill, a continuance always cures. Mrs. Wm. M.

BOARD OF SUPERVISORS. Home Telephone Company's phone franchise was again before Supervisors Tuesday, and its discussion began with the morning session. The Supervisors had prepared for the last meeting a franchise to the place of the one refused by applicant some time ago, and in latest one, had cut down the point asked to be paid by the applicant in a lump sum from forty-two hundred dollars to one thousand dollar. Another condition in this latest franchise was that free telephones be given the county for all time, the last, but not least condition proposed franchise was that the company to which it shall be given pay to the county three per cent gross earnings annually. This franchise was flatly refused by applicant and he and others requested were on the point of leave the room when they were called and asked to prepare something might be more suitable, to be brought before the Board later in the month. This was done, and this afternoon another franchise was pre-ferred by the company in which it was notified that the county shall be given free use of six telephones for five years, by agreement, and in the body the franchise itself, was a clause providing that when ten residents of the county shall petition the company for the installation of a telephone ring the line, the company shall come with their request. The three percent clause was also in this fran- cease, and the further provision that Supervisors shall put it up and sell to the highest bidder. But Chairman McMullen seemed bound to stick to the franchise as prepared by the board, notwithstanding the fact that provisions had been declared by applicant to be impossible of acceptance, and in line with his seem- determination to put the Board's franchise in the best possible light, that document read first and afterwards ordered the one prepared by the applicant read for purposes of compar- A recent clause was also in this francase, and the further provision that Supervisors shall put it up and sell to the highest bidder. But Chairman McMullen seemed bound to stick to the franchise as prepared by the board, notwithstanding the fact that provisions had been declared by the applicant to be impossible of acceptance, and in line with his seemdetermination to put the Board's franchise in the best possible light, that document read first and after-ords ordered the one prepared by the applicable read for purposes of companion. At the conclusion of the readline, Lineberger moved that the fransece containing the one thousand dolclause be put up and sold to the highest bidder, and the motion was promptly seconded. As a preliminary getting the matter in the right light, Chairman McMullen vacated the chair address the Board, and among other statements made in support of the franchise which he said had been prepared by himself and the District Atorney, he said that in San Francisco the county offices were given free telephones and not only the offices, but public schools as well. This statement was challenged by Arthur Wright, who set Mr. McMullen right in his data by informing him that the granting of free telephones to the schools in San Francisco was in return for a rebate made in the telephone company's taxes. Mr. McMullen accepted the correction, but stuck to the statement that the Sunset Telephone Company has agreed to furnish the county offices with telephone service for all time, until he was again set straight on the information that the county was not a scratch of a pen to hold the Sunset Company anything that corporation may not see fit to do its own accord. This latter correction was made by Judge Ballard, who appeared for the Home Telephone Company, and who in a straightforward talk, endeavored to make it plain that the Supervisors that the conditions which the applicant was willing to agree were enough in all conscience satisfy any reasonable person. Supervisor Smith moved to submit franchise B, or the franchise prepared by the applicant in substitution for the franchise prepared by the Board. The motion was lost by a vote of three to two, Smith and Fulsome, voting five. The franchise prepared by the Board was also defeated by the same vote, this time McMullen and Lineberer voting aye. Supervisor Holderman at some length defined his position by stating that he would favor the franchise as asked for by the applicant if it were accompanied by an agreement granting the county free charge six telephones for fifty years. The Chairman then declared a process of ten minutes to see if a mutual agreement could not be arrived Bloated beyond recognition, lying with his face in a pool of blood, his hands tied so tightly behind his back that the checked circulation of the blood in his hands blackened them like those of a negro, with a clothesline around his neck which had closed off completely his wind, after several crushing blows had inflicted from behind, the body of George L. Mills. manager of the Syndicate Loan Company, was found yesterday in an upper story room of a furnished but vacant house at 821 West Sixteenth street. Mills was decoyed from his office. 13S½ South Spring street, by telephone message on Wednesday afternoon. No one has been yet found who saw him alive again after his departure from the office. The murder of Mills in its conception and brutality of execution is an exact counterpart of that of James M. Sowards, another money lender, who was invigilated into a furnished apartment in a South Main street rooming house on January 30th, by Martin E. Cox, and there robbed and barbarously slaughtered. Sowards' body was not discovered until several days after the commission of the deed, Cox having meanwhile had sample time to escape. He never was captured or even heard of again. As in the Sowards case, murder as a means of self-protection after the robbery had taken place, had to be resorted to in the Mills case, because both victims knew the persons who slew them, and had some business relations with them, which inspired each money lender with enough confidence to make it possible for the murderers to lure their victims into a trap. Williams Is Suspected. The police theory is that everything in this case points to a man who gave the name of Williams as the one who decoyed Mills to the West Sixteenth street house and murdered him. The slayer seems to have strictly conformed, so far as could be learned last night, to the scheme followed by Cox. It was equally successful, and instead of having only a two days start, as Cox had the murderer, whoever he may be, has had since last Wednesday evening to place thousands of miles between curcuma to Geneva, took lunch in the restaurant there, and had a delightful afternoon. It is beautiful to be here. From our bedroom window we see the range of mountains and Mont Blanc at a great distance, but indistinct, and also the lake, just as blue as the skies and glittering with million soft sparks, laughing at me every morning and filling me with vigor and renewed youth. I really feel much younger since I have been on this side of the ocean. Is it the change of climate, or is it second childhood? I don't know, but I know that I am happy."—San Diego Union.

The subject will be finally disposed of by the general assembly which meets in Los Angeles next month. It is expected the overtures from the presbyteries will be enacted by the general assembly.

The police theory is that everything in this case points to a man who gave the name of Williams as the one who decoyed Mills to the West Sixteenth street house and murdered him. The slayer seems to have strictly conformed, so far as could be learned last night, to the scheme followed by Cox. It was equally successful, and instead of having had only a two days start, as Cox had the murderer, who ever he may be, has had since last Wednesday evening to place thousands of miles between himself and the authorities. It is not probable, however, that the murderer executed his murderous design unassisted, although it has not yet been proved that he did not. A very unsatisfactory description of Williams has been obtained by the police, which, it is feared, will not be of great assistance as a means of capture. Had an Accomplice. LOS ANGELES, April 28.—Police are now confident that Williams, supposed to be the murderer, had an accomplice, Williams is believed to have been employed by Sachs Brothers in San Francisco. Dr. Walsh, the divorced husband of Mrs. Mills, it is alleged is under suspicion. The killing of Mills makes the fifth murder mystery this month. Educator Dead.
