CITY TRUSTEES TALK MORALITY Instruct Marshal to Investigate the Flowing of Beer at Brewery During Sunday Picnics The board of trustees met in regular session Tuesday evening. Present, all members except Fletcher. Finance committee reported approval of bills amounting to $357,50, and they were ordered paid. Committee on public improvement reported that 180 feet of 2-inch pipe had been put in for Mr. Wommer on Broadway and Lemon streets; that a water connection had been made for Steve Bender on West Center street; that the streets had been cleaned of weeds and grass; that the trees had been trimmed; that West street, from North to South streets, had been oiled, 75 barrels of oil being used; and that Lemon street from Center to Santa Ana street had also been oiled. Berdrow reported against putting in pipe at corner of South and Walnut streets as unnecessary. Weisel suggested that the clerk write to the Espee requesting them to remove the cattle guard and culvert at Fourth and West streets, and his suggestion was adopted. Marshal Steadman reported that he had interviewed the property owners on Los Angeles street as regards constructing sidewalk, and that they had refused to sign the agreement as presented to them. Rust suggested that an endeavor be made to secure ten feet on each side of Los Angeles street for sidewalk purposes under the conditions adopted by the board at its last meeting, and that if the effort was unsuccessful the land be condemned by legal proceedings. His suggestion was, after discussion, formulated into a motion and adopted. Mr. McWilliams reported that it would cost $465 to remove the tank frames, preparatory to building a new powerhouse. Report accepted and the matter of building powerhouse gave rise to an interesting discussion. Messrs. Schneider and Berdrow seemed to be in favor of the building as planned by Architect McWilliams, and Messrs. Rust and Weisel deemed it unnecessarily elaborate and expensive. No definite action was taken. Agent Clabaugh of the Santa Fe complained that his company had not LET US CELEBRATE THE GLORIOUS FOURTH Petitions are In Circulation for Subscriptions, and your Name is Wanted on the List Shall Anaheim celebrate the Fourth? Most assuredly! Capt. H. Stern, at the request of many, has circulated a petition having that end in view, and up to last evening had secured several hundred dollars. Let us have a glorious celebration. Anaheim will be the only town in the county having one this year. Sign the petition and subscribe liberally. Let us celebrate! NO CELEBRATION IN SANTA ANA The citizens of Santa Ana have decided to hold no celebration on the 4th of Juniy this year. The committee appointed to raise funds were unable to collect more than $500 which was about one-third that was needed. FOLLOWING HOUNDS IN THE CANYON Santiago Fox Club Have Exciting Hunt and a Barbecue. Members of the Santiago Fox Club and a number of invited friends participated in a hunt and barbecue in Santiago canyon on Friday and Saturday. The party assembled at the county park in the canyon on Friday afternoon and enjoyed a barbecue as a beginning of the festivities. For the feast one steer, three sheep, 100 loaves of bread, 50 pounds of pickles and 50 gallons of coffee were provided. The annual business meeting and election of officers followed. A dance in the pavilion concluded the program for the eveniqg. Tents were provided for the women of the party, and the men turned in upon beds of straw under the oaks. The party numbered upwards of 100. At 4 o'clock on Saturday morning the hunters' horn called the sportsmen to the chase. After a cup of coffee and a light breakfast the hunters started in pursuit of the quarry. There were 64 horsemen who followed a pack of 40 hounds, the latter being the property of Dr. Nimmo of the San Joaquin ranch, Ed. Gains of Clearwater, G. F. Fords, Judge Pleasants of Santiago and other DEATH OF THEODORE STALEY Old-time Resident of Placentia Who was Highly Esteemed for Loving Qualities Theodore Staley died at the California hospital in Los Angeles on Thursday morning of last week from the effects of a surgical operation undergone some days previously. He had for years been a sufferer from internal complications and was overcome on Wednesday afternoon of last week while engaged at work upon his Placentia orchard. He had been in his usual health for a long time past, but was suddenly stricken down and was removed to the hospital on the evening train. His sufferings were due to an aggravated attack of bladder trouble. At the hospital he underwent a surgical operation, but it was impossible for him to rally and he passed away as stated early on Thursday morning of last week. The body was brought back to his Placentia home, the funeral occurring on Friday afternoon. Burial services were conducted by C. C. Chapman, an old-time friend of deceased. It had been Mr. Staley's desire that Mr. Chapman should perform this service for him. The cortege was one of the longest ever held in this portion of the county. Interment was in the Santa Ana cemetery, the funeral passing through this city. Mr. Staley was a native of Missouri, and was born in Carleton of that state on June 7, 1839, being thus at the time of his death in his 64th year. In 1856, when a lad of 17, he set out with his widowed mother and four brothers for California. The family settled in Sonoma county. At Santa Rosa on June 25, 1869, he was married to Miss Dru丝illa Teague. Three children were born to them, Arthur, Myrtle and Walter, all of whom with their mother survive the deceased. A few years thereafter Mr. Staley determined to come to Southern California and in 1881 located at Orange. He was attracted in the following year to the rich Placentia district and was the first to lay out an orchard on the east side of Placentia avenue. For many years his orchard has been known as one of the best tilled and most profitable in the county. He was at one time superintendent of the Anaheim Union Water company, and served several terms as a director of the Placentia Orange Growers association. Mr. McWilliams reported that it would cost $465 to remove the tank frames, preparatory to building a new powerhouse. Report accepted and the matter of building powerhouse gave rise to an interesting discussion. Messrs. Schneider and Berdrow seemed to be in favor of the building as planned by Architect McWilliams, and Messrs. Rust and Weisel deemed it unnecessarily elaborate and expensive. No definite action was taken. Agent Clabaugh of the Santa Fe complained that his company had not been receiving a fair share of the oil business of the city, and he asked the board to give his company one-half of the business. Clerk Merritt stated that the Santa Fe had received fully as much of the city business as the S. F. since he had been in office. Mr. Clabaugh stated that the last car of oil transported by his road for the city was in June of last year, and he thought it about time for the Sahta Fe to get some now. The clerk was instructed to examine his books for the past three years and ascertain how much oil has been carried by both roads, and report at next meeting. Justice Howard said the chamber of commerce had been making an effort to get a good hotel man to start in business here, as it was a crying need of the city, and asked the city to assist the chamber. This started a discussion as to the manner in which the Commercial hotel is conducted, and the conduct of the bar at that place. The marshal was instructed to investigate that institution and report at the next meeting. The marshal reported that a picnic was advertised to be held at Columbia Garden on Sunday, under the auspices of a Los Angeles verein, and that it was expected that beer would flow like water. The promoters were anxious not to run foul of the city liquor ordinance, and had endeavored to placate the marshal, but he would have none of it and proposed to enforce the law; and the trustees agreed with him. The marshal also reported that he was enforcing the curfew ordinance, and suggested that a whistle loud enough to be heard over the city be sounded from the powerhouse every night at 9 o'clock. Action deferred. Rust reported that the new tank had arrived at the powerhouse and that it be put together. Action deferred to next meeting. Adjourned. Sleeping Beauty An orchestra of four men from Los Angeles were in town some evenings ago to officiate at a dance given by the young folks, and at breakfast the next morning in a downtown restaurant one of them, being overcome by the loss of sleep the night before, fell into the arms of Morpheus. He was soon entertaining the other breakfasters with a series of resonant snores that came near stopping the clock. The other three being practical jokers of the Angeleno variety, after hurrying through their meal, tiptoed out pavilion concluded the program for the eveningqw. Tents were provided for the women of the party, and the men turned in upon beds of straw under the oaks. The party numbered upwards of 100. At 4 o'clock on Saturday morning the hunters' horn called the sportsmen to the chase. After a cup of coffee and a light breakfast the hunters started in pursuit of the quarry. There were 64 horsemen who followed a pack of 40 hounds, the latter belping the property of Dr.-Nimmo of the San Joaquin ranch, Ed. Gains of Clearwater, G. F. Fords, Judge Pleasants of Santiago and other members of the hunting club. Three wild cats killed and a chase after a fox were the exciting incidents of the morning. The fox was scented early in the day by the hounds which chased him over hills in plain sight of the hunters. Reynard finally found a hole in the rocks and made his escape. Among the guests was H. D. Barrows of Los Angeles, who hunted in the canyon forty years ago with Judge J. E. Pleasants, and killed a black bear and deer on the site of the county park. Others were: Dr. Page of Pasadena; Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Bixby of Los Angeles and E. F. Gaines of Clearwater. Wild cats and coyotes have been unusually plentiful in the mountains and an occasional fox has been seen, but the animals evidently beat to cover for varmints killed were not so numerous as in former chases. June Wedding Rev. and Mrs. W. G. Cowan of Highland have issued invitations to the marriage of their daughter, Elizabeth, and Emil Julius Ragos. The ceremony will take place June 3rd at 2:30 o'clock, in the Methodist Episcopal church, of which Rev. Mr. Cowan is pastor. Mr. Cowan was formerly pastor of the Fullerton and Anaheim Methodist churches and is a gentleman held in very high esteem hereabouts. A reception, from 3 to 5 o'clock at the rectory, will follow the ceremony, to which a large number of friends have been invited. Miss Cowan is the elder daughter of Rev. and Mrs. Cowan, and is an accomplished and charming young lady of rare qualities. She has a host of friends in Orange county to wish her well. Mr. Ragos is a young business man of San Bernardino, and is to be congratulated on winning for himself a bride who is as sweet as she is accomplished and beautiful. Friends hereabout join in congratulations to the happy couple. To Patrons and Friends.

Electric Railway Notes Mr. Klemm was in town from Centralia on Monday and said that the surveyed route of the Huntington electric railway pierces his 10-acre tract diagonally and cuts his big barn in two. He thinks he ought to have at least a thousand dollars for right-of-way. Three surveys have, he says, been made, but no rights-of-way in his immediate neighborhood have so far as he is aware been secured. The line runs west of Jerry Cole's Hardscorabranch and goes through the old Edgerly apple orchard. The bridge across Los Angeles river for the electric railway to Whittier has been completed and work began this week on the bridge over San Gabriel.

He was soon entertaining the other breakfasters with a series of resonant snores that came near stopping the clock. The other three being practical jokers of the Angeleno variety, after hurrying through their meal, tiptoed out of the restaurant, not however before settling with the cashier at the counter. The man asleep slept on. He was the butt of many a jest but awoke shortly and looked about him in wild-eyed astonishment. He excitedly asked what time it was. “It’s 10 o’clock,” said a man seated near him, contributing his share to carrying out the joke. “Holy smoke!” exclaimed the dreamer. “Did I miss that train?” Then he grabbed his hat in one hand and his musical instrument in the other and bolted down the street. On the corner he came up with his three companions who were laughing at his expense. Then they set out for the depot and caught their train, but the man who fell asleep missed his breakfast.

Having purchased the Anaheim dairy we intend to continue the same under the new name of “Model Dairy,” and have used our best efforts to place it at the high standard the name implies. In lieu of the fact that we will be at quite an expense keeping the dairy in a condition to be a credit to the city and of the greatest convenience to our customers, also putting it in the best possible sanitary condition, we will be compelled to charge six cents per quart for milk, which we guarantee our customers to be equal in purity and richness to the milk sold in other cities at 9 and 10 cents per quart. Hoping this will meet with the approval of our customers, and soliciting a continuance of the patronage given Mrs. Schumacher, we are, respectfully, ma21tf ROSS BROTHERS.
