PUTTING ON GALA DRESS FOR THE CELEBRATION Streets Are Being Decorated and Colored Electric Globes Placed in Positon for the Glorious Fourth—Boys of U. S: Training Ship Pinta Coming. The week of the Glorious Fourth finds the Mother Colony decking herself out in holiday attire for the ever glorious event. Washington at Valley Forge; Lexington and Yorktown and Bunker Hill! Who could not enthuse at mention of these historical names? Lives there a man with soul so dead, who never to himself hath said: I'll celebrate the Fourth if it costs a farm. Judge Howard and the nag have just passed the three-quarters in one and a half, and he is turning into the home stretch in a manner to indicate that all records will be smashed to smithereens. There is much work yet to do, but the committees are working like beavers and by Saturday morning the town will be decorated in the national colors from one end to the other. The committees on electrical illumination are stringing wires for colored lights across the streets. An elaborate court of honor will be erected in the center of town, but the set pieces will be cut out, in order to decorate more in colored lights about the streets. This electrical demonstration will be worth coming miles to see. At Monday evening's meeting of the executive committee the following program was officially decided upon: Salute of guns, 7 a.m. Band cochert, 9 a.m. Grand parade, floats, automobiles, horsemen, bands, military companies, Columbia marching club, carriages, etc., 10 a.m. Parade disperses at Central school house grounds. Hon Z. B. West of Santa Ana president of the day. Reading Declaration of Independence by Miss Louisa Paschall, 11 a.m. Oration of day, by Senator A. A. Caldwell, 11:15 a.m. Military companies go into camp, 12 m. Barbecue for military companies and distinguished guests of the day, 12:30 ONE MAN IN PEN: OTHER MARRIED David Tharp and Laura Jones Wedded—Walker Gets Five Years. Harry Walker, the Santa Ana man who burst into Mrs. Laura Jones' house at Tustin and, finding the lady and Tharp in bed together, began firing his pistol in all directions, was sentenced on Monday by Judge West to serve five years in San Quentin state prison. Walker and the Jones woman had been living together, when Tharp appeared upon the scene and supplanted him in the affections of the woman. When Walker, on the night of the attempted murder, tried to perforate Tharp with all kinds of bullets, left the house, supposing that he had sent his hated rival into kingdom come, returned to Santa Ana, he informed Coroner Smith he had killed a man at Mrs. Jones. But Tharp was not so badly hurt after all, although Walkers' intentions were of the best. The day Walker received his sentence Tharp and Mrs. Jones were married. It is said they will live in Los Angeles. BUSINESS CHANGES City Meat Market Chris Geldermann, who is among the most widely and favorably known market men in Orange county, has taken charge of the City meat market, and will after this date be found behind the counter at that popular establishment*. Chris is too well known to require an introduction; everybody knows him, and he is correspondingly well liked. He has moved here from Santa Ana with his wife and rented the Metz cottage near the city hall. He will keep on hand the best of fresh and salted meats, and extends an invitation to our citizens to call and get better acquainted. Palace Market W. E. Houk has resumed management of the Palace meat market, which he purchased from F. W. Fleischman last January. Mr. Houk is an experienced butcher and will carry a stock of the best the market affords in fresh DEDICATION OF THE NEW ST. BONIFACE A Spacious, Roomy and Well-Ventilated Structure—Impressive Exercises and Excellent Sermon Bishop Conaty dedicated the new St. Boniface Catholic church on Sunday morning in the presence of a congregation that filled the edifice to the doors, overflowed upon the stairway leading to the main entrance and extended into the front yard upon the sidewalk. It was the Bishop's first dedication since his ordination into his new ecclesiastical position. A solemn mass was celebrated, beginning at 10 o'clock, when the spacious new church was filled with members of the church and invited guests. Mass was participated in by the following clergy: Rev. F. J. Dubbel, pastor of the church, celebrant; Rev. J. J. Clifford, deacon; Rev. T. Murtaugh, sub-deacon; Rev. C. Molony, master of ceremonies. Rt. Rev. Thomas J. Conaty, D. D., occupied a seat in the sanctuary. Deacons of honor were Rev. P. Stoetters, Rev. Joseph O'Keefe, Rev. J. Gorrell, Rev. J. P. Kaiser. The clergy formed a procession and wended its way solemnly around the church, the Bishop sprinkling holy water upon the edifice. Entering by the main stairway the procession marched to the altar, where other impressive ceremonies were proceeded with. At conclusion of mass Bishop Conaty ascended the pulpit and preached eloquently, taking for his text the infallibility of the church. The Bishop compares favorably as a pulpit orator with Bishop Montgomery, whom the congregation knew so well. The latter is more forcible, more impressive in his delivery; he frequently repeats, but adds emphasis to his discourse in the repetition. The former has more of the orator in him. His gestures are turned smoothly, and his voice possesses a modulation that fascinates the hearer. His sentences are models of diction, and he brings them to a close with a snap which seems to fit in its place precisely. Seldom has a more scholarly or more impressive sermon been listened to in Anaheim. The command of God, said the Bishop, must be obeyed, not according to its interpretation by the individual, but according to its express terms as laid down in the scriptures. Grand parade, floats, automobiles, horsemen, bands, military companies, Columbia marching club, carriages, etc., 10 a.m. Parade disperses at Central school house grounds. Hon Z. B. West of Santa Ana president of the day. Reading Declaration of Independence by Miss Louisa Paschall, 11 a.m. Oration of day, by Senator A. A. Caldwell, 11:15 a.m. Military companies go into camp, 12 m. Barbecue for military companies and distinguished guests of the day, 12:30 p.m. Athletic sports, 2 to 6 p.m. Baseball, 3 p.m. Grand parade of horribles, 4 p.m. Band concerts, 7 to 8 p.m. Fireworks and grand electrical illumination, 8 p.m. Grand ball at opera house, 9:30 p.m. The committee will offer appropriate prizes for the best decorated float in the parade; also for the best decorated automobile, carriage, riding horse, as well as the best decorated business house and private dwelling in the city. One of the new features to be announced this week is that the boys of the United States training ship Pinta, now at San Pedro, will be in line, accompanied by officers of the ship. The three companies of the Orange county batallion will be a feature of the parade. Company L of Santa Ana has already accepted an invitation to be present. Company H of Talbert have sent word that the boys of the Peat would be here, but were undecided whether to parade as a company. Tomorrow evening a committee of Company E go to Talbert to persuade the boys to parade as a company. That the three companies will be in line is regarded as practically certain. The soldier boys will go into camp immediately after the parade on the drill ground adjoining the armory. At noon the visiting guardsmen will be served with a barbecue, which Doc Paschall will prepare in his usual Kentucky fashion. He will roast beef and mutton, and fires will burn in the pits during the entire night preceding the day of celebration. The military will be served with meats and other delicacies, and they are promised a rare treat. Doc Paschall will serve barbecued meat to those wishing it. The parade will start from the opera house promptly at 10 o'clock. H. A. Dickel will be grand marshal. He has appointed the following sides: Johnny Hanna, John Brunworth W. A. Newberry, Peter Nicholas, J. Andrada, W. B. Pitman, O. Warling, F.W. Fleischman, J. Hartung, J. Gardiner, J. Tuffree and Charley Stone.

Fleischman last January. Mr. Houk is an experienced butcher and will carry a stock of the best the market affords in fresh and salted meats. W. Schumacher will continue to serve customers of the market with his usual urbanity, and will strive in future, as in the past, to please. Messrs. Houk and Schumacher make a good team and will doubtless make a success of the Palace market. Anti-Saloon League The churches of Anaheim will unite in a grand union mass meeting Sunday evening, July 5th, at the Christian church. This meeting will be addressed by Rev. Ervin Chapman D. D., LL.D., superintendent of the state anti-saloon league, who will illustrate his lecture by new maps showing the wonderful achievements in saloon suppression during the past five years, in Southern California. Dr Chapman is so well and favorably known among all the denominations of this coast that it is scarcely necessary to more than mention his name to our readers. His voice and face are familiar to the entire christian public. As a platform speaker he is alert, direct, aggressive, convincing. He draws and holds people and sends them out with deliberation and fight in their veins. He is probably the peer of any living temperance worker. Gasoline Engines C.I.Eaton, manager of the Model Gas Engine company, has an announcement of his business in another part of this issue, and will be glad to give readers of this paper all information regarding the superiority of his engine. He makes for it the claim that it costs less for fuel than any other engine of its class, and this is an item purchaser should bear in particular mind when purchasing. Mr. Eaton is rigging up a gasoline engine upon a bicycle for Mall Carrier Towner, who delivers mail on Rural route 3, and is at work upon the construction of an automobile for his own use. He is an experienced mechanic and guarantees all his work. Those in need of gasoline engines should call upon him and inspect his stock before purchasing elsewhere. Bird V. Beebe One of the largest stocks of wagons and carriages, farming implements, bicycles, etc., in Orange county is that of Bird V. Beebe, who is widely known as one of our most reliable and popular business men. His stock is comprehensive and well selected, and those desiring to purchase articles in his liked. He has moved here from Santa Ana with his wife and rented the Metz cottage near the city hall. He will keep on hand the best of fresh and salted meats, and extends an invitation to our citizens to call and get better acquainted. Seldom has a more scholarly or more impressive sermon been listened to in Anaheim. The command of God, said the Bishop, must be obeyed, not according to its interpretation by the individual, but according to its express terms as laid down in the scriptures. He complimented the pastor of the church for his work in securing the erection of the new church, the priests who had rendered assistance, and also the congregation who had given financial aid to the building. In the evening the church was again filled to hear the solemn vespers. Rev.Wm. Quinlan was celebrant; Rev.F.J.Dubbel, desacon; Rev.M.Conneally, sub-deacon; Rev.J.J.Clifford, master of ceremonies; assisted by Rev.P.Stoetters, Rev.Victor Aertker, Rev.J.P.Kaiser. The sermon was preached in German by Rev.Victor Aertker. The church is a handsome, roomy and well-ventilated structure, built of brick in gothic architecture. It is finished tastefully throughout, the altar being in white walnut. The building cost upward of $14,000, and the entire debt is paid with the exception of about $1000. Bishop Conaty was tendered a reception in the afternoon, during which he was met by members of the church and other citizens. He departed for Los Angeles on the evening train and went north to San Francisco to attend a business meeting on Monday. Cannery Begins The cannery began its season's operations on Tuesday, when attention was given some very fine apricots. The fruit comes from this neighborhood, and the cots will keep the cannery running three weeks or a month. Manager Weissel says that after that the cannery will go on peaches and pears, of which there is a good crop and after that on tomatoes, which promise a heavy yield, and will doubtless keep the works going until frost stops them in the bad old winter time. Baseball The Young America baseball nine on this city defeated the Santa Ana nine on home grounds on Sunday after noon by a score of 9 to 1. Only five innings were played. Immediately after the game Loares and Orange crossed bats, resulting in favor of the former by a score of 13 to 9. Orange defeated the Young Americas on same grounds the week before by a score of 11 to 8. New Furniture House Ira Chandler, the Santa Ana furniture dealer, has opened a branch house in Anaheim, which is in charge of J.H.Carter, an experienced salesman and thoroughly familiar with all branches of the business. A well-selected stock is being unpacked and added emphasis to his discourse in the repetition. The former has more of the orator in him. His gestures are turned smoothly, and his voice possesses a modulation that fascinates the hearer. His sentences are models of diction, and he brings them to a close with a snap which seems to fit in its place precisely. Seldom has a more scholarly or more impressive sermon been listened to in Anaheim.

Modjeska, the noted actress, arrived on Monday to spend the summer at her mountain home, Arden, in Santiago canyon.

Modjeska is in good spirits and excellent health, with the exception of a slight cold. Her plans for the future she says are entirely unsettled, and she has nothing definite to announce with the exception that she expects to go upon the stage again next season, provided her health permits. She anticipates a pleasant summer at her ranch, and will devote her time to study and reet.

Fayous of Paris, a distinguished French scientist, representing several French and German publications, for which he is gathering data for a series of articles on the Pacific Slope and Rocky Mountain region, spent several hours in this city on Saturday last. M. Fayous came up from Coronado, where he had been the guest of Wm. E. Smythe for several days. Besides his newspaper work he is engaged in gathering statistics for a syndicate of French capitalists who are looking to California for investment. He will also make a report to the French government upon the labor situation in this part of the United States, together with a study of strikes, walkouts and other devices of the walking delegate. While not saying as much it was evident from his questioning that, in the near future, other representatives of French capitalists will arrive in California to further investigate the possibilities of climate and soil hereabout. M. Fayous was especially interested in the co-operative fruit exchange, and asked for and was given a copy of the by-laws of the local association. He also procured a copy of the by-laws of the water company, in which he took a lively interest. He was also presented with a collection of literature concerning Anaheim and Orange county, in all of which he took the keenest interest. He desired to be informed upon sugar beets, and met by engagement, Mr. Turk, head of the chemists at the Chino factory, and who by the way, had just returned to his home in this city from a three-months' trip to Europe. The meeting between the two was extremely cordial. Mr Turk soon had Monsleur "going" on Southern California as the greatest sugar-producing country, acre for acre, that lies out doors. Monsieur had acquired the notion, while looking over Colorado, that that State was ahead of California when it came to the production of sugar, but it is safe to say that Mr. Turk flattened out this idea before the interview was over. Mr. Turk informed M. Fayous that three of the latter's countrymen (the Oxnards) had established in California two of the largest sugar mills in the country, and he also assured the Frenchman that if his travels ever took him into their company he would never have PERSONAL MENTION Miss Zien left on Tuesday for an extended eastern trip.

He went east and two years ago returned to Los Angeles, where he purchased property at an outlay of $8000, disposing of the same some weeks ago for $15,000. He is accompanied by his wife and four children, and will make Anaheim his future home. His oldest son is attending high school in Los Angeles. Mr. Glotzbach is a wideawake and public-spirited citizen and will make a desirable acquisition to our population. A baby whale washed ashore a few days ago on the beach near the property of the Bolsa Chica gun club. The whale, which weighs about 4000 pounds and is about ten feet long, is an object of much interest to campers in that vicinity. No Books Mr. Bruce informs us that no books will be given out at the city library on Saturday next, the Glorious Fourth.
