A SHAFT OF LIGHT FIFTY FEET HIGH Curious Phenomenon Witnessed by TheoRimpau and Others Monday Evening at Half Past 8. In the rear of the residence of Carlos Corona on Elm street, a short distance west of Clementina, a footpath runs through the yard diagonally toward Santa Ana street. All day long on Tuesday groups of neighbors stood about a spot in the path distant probably thirty feet from the house, where on the previous evening a phenomenon occurred which startled the neighborhood for many blocks around. At that hour Theo. Rimpau and Antonio Yorba were seated upon the front porch of the former's residence on Palm street, several blocks away, when their attention was directed to the spot indicated in rear of the Corona residence by the sound as of an explosion, or the firing of anvils, followed by projection into the air of a shaft of light estimated to be fifty feet in height, which, illuminating the neighborhood as a powerful electric lamp, instantly sank again into the ground. Mr. Rimpau at first supposed the phenomenon due to an explosion of dynamite or other substance, and was thinking of walking over with Mr. Yorba to the locality, but as no motion followed the light and the neighborhood remained in stillness, he decided that nothing serious had occurred and waited until the next morning to go over and make investigations. "The light seemed to be as large in diameter as would require my two arms to encircle it," said he, as he explained the curious occurrence to a reporter for this newspaper. "It was a bluish light, and was preceded by a loud report, like that of a distant cannon, and the noise was followed by a sound as of escaping steam. The light shot up to a height of probably fifty feet, and instantly shot back into the ground. Many of the neighbors saw it, and many explanations are offered concerning it, but I must confess I do not know what caused it." Corona's daughter, a young lady grown, was in the back room of her father's residence, and saw the light plainly. Mrs. Corona also saw it. A light spring wagon standing at the west side of the house was shaken by DOINGS OF CITY FATHERS Discuss All-Night Lighting Service, and Refer It to Engineers at Power House for Statement as to Its Cost The board of city trustees met in regular session on Tuesday evening. Present all members except Weisel. The marshal reported the following collections: For water, $250.65; for license, $454.50; for light, $329.30; total. $1034.45. The treasurer reported the following cash on hand: In general fund, $1930.98; in library fund, $13.14; in improvement fund No. 1, $544.50; total, $2488.62. The recorder reported that he had tried five violators of ordinances during month and had collected $20 in fines. The finance committee reported favorably on demands aggregating $1424.48. Committee on public improvements reported that water connections had been made on property of Gaximola on Sycamore street, and that the city teams had been employed in hauling gravel. A resolution accepting the resubdivision of Vineyard lot D.5, as per map recorded by H. Deutsch, was adopted. In the matter of the petition for 24-hour electric light service, Mr. Berdow reported thus: he had interviewed the engineers and he had to report adversely to the request of the petitioners. He thought, however, that it was possible an all-night service would be acceptable to the people and might be made profitable to the city. The matter was thoroughly discussed and the trustees seemed to favor the all-night plan. On the suggestion of Mr. Fletcher the matter was referred to Engineers Lewis and Schneider for a report on the probable cost of the additional service. Request of W. P. Adams for transfer of the saloon license in the Commercial hotel to Robert Folkers was granted. Proposition was read from Edison Electric company to sell four certain electric poles which are already planted on Los Angeles street, and which the city needs, for $15, and any number of poles -the city may need for $2 each. It was decided to purchase the four poles for $15 and as many more as the city needs at $2 each. OLINDA IS AGAIN VICTORIOUS Swampa Warm Aggregation of Imported Baseball Talent from Darkest Los Angeles. It's an old adage in baseball that your side wins, it has got to be a mighty poor game not to be a good one and, transversely, if your side loses the game must be pretty good one not to be a bad one. Thus it is that the game on Sunday afternoon between the Olinda tar flatters and the much vaunted Hamburgers of Los Angeles proved to be in the former category though truth to tell, it was one of the poorest exhibitions seen on the local diamond in many a day. Not that the drillers were not in the game with all the ginger characteristic of them, but the other chaps were so out-classed they didn't seem to be in it. The game started out, as is customary in all well-regulated games, to be a good one, but developed into a force at the end, when in the ninth, the footbill aggregation with six hits, made the circuit of the bags an even ten times. Seven hits four runs and eight errors by the Los Angeles aggregation tells the story Incidentally eleven strike-outs by Crips imparted a little crippness to the debate. The oil wellers took kindly to the foreigners delivery, and pounded it for a total of 24 bits. netting 22 runs. Barnett's batting was a feature of the game. A home run, two triples and a double, out of seven times up is a record the oil well short-stop can well be proud of. Crips made six hits out of seven times up, one being a triple. All the boys connected with the sphere, and made things lively for the Los Angeles twirler who had the time of his life with the boys from the tall grass. The score. OLINDA AB.R.H.SB.PO.A.E.C.

Many of the neighbors saw it, and many explanations are offered concerning it, but I must confess I do not know what caused it." Corona's daughter, a young lady grown, was in the back room of her father's residence, and saw the light plainly. Mrs. Corona also saw it. A light spring wagon standing at the west side of the house was shaken by the shock, and continued to vibrate for some moments after the light disappeared. Mrs. Carrisosa and several ladies were seated in her back yard, a short distance away, the two yards adjoining, and the light was plainly seen by them. Corona was in the house asleep at the time. He did not hear the noise nor see the light, but says he remembers seeing a similar light at San Gabriel twenty-five years ago. H. C. Gade was asleep in his residence a short distance away, and says he heard no explosion. He attributes the flash of fire to combustibles arising from the ground, and has frequently seen such phenomena in swampy land. Francisco Ruiz was at his home on Los Angeles street, two blocks east of Corona's, and saw the light plainly. Senior Ruiz is of the unalterable opinion that it was ghosts. Years ago, he says, a frame house owned by P. Davis, now living in San Francisco, stood upon the identical spot whence the light emanated. Ruiz distinctly remembers that neighborhood gossip credited the house with being haunted; and he is not sure the light of Monday evening was not the cussed thing come to life again. Tuesday afternoon, after many of the curious-minded had visited the scene of the strange occurrence, the discovery was made that at or near the point whence the light issued a curbed well was long ago partly filled up. An iron pipe is said to have extended to within a short space of the surface. Whether or not this had anything to do with the appearance of the light is referred to scientists. Some of the people say it is natural gas, for gas is known to exist in the valley; but if the gas were once ignited, it would remain so for a longer period than the flash of light that appeared for only a second. The ground is unbroken at the spot, and there is nothing to indicate the presence of any underground disturbance. SAILOR MAN WILL BECOME A FARMER Capt. Peterson Purchases Twenty Acres at Caledonia and Will Give Up the Sea Capt. Peter A. Peterson has purchased twenty acres of improved vineyard land from Alex Henry at Caledonia Grove, and will give up the sea and become a farmer. Capt. Peterson was in town on Tuesday, when the trade Engineers Lewis and Schneider for a report on the probable cost of the additional service. Request of W. P. Adams for transfer of the saloon license in the Commercial hotel to Robert Folkers was granted.

SENTIMENT AGAINST THE STREET FAIR Those Informed Upon the Subject Say the Town Had Best Have None of It. The street fair man was in town again this week, and at his suggestion a meeting of citizens was called at the city hall to consider the prospect of holding a street fair here in the near future. A small attendance was present, and the attractions of the fair were painted in glowing colors by the speler. No one present had ever heard of a street fair apparently, much less sashaying down the back alley with her, when the lights were low, and nobody seemed to know just who she was, or where she came from. The next day a dozen people had chills running up and down their backs when they found out the true nature of the thing in short skirts. "That would probably be the end of the town," said one business man yesterday. The sentiment of the people here is evidently against the Streets of Cairo and the Midway. OBITUARY FREDERICK REHM. Frederick Rehm died at his home in Cucamonga on Saturday of cancer, in his sixty-ninth year. The remains were brought to this city on Monday morning and interred beside those of deceased's wife who breathed her last in October, 1886. Mr. Rehm was one of the early pioneers of this city, coming here in the 60's. In 1887 he went to live with his children at Cucamonga. Here he enjoyed good health until recently, when cancer developed and recovery at his advanced age was impossible. WILLIAMS. Mrs. Mamie Williams, aged 25, a native of Germany, died on Sunday afternoon at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Finley, of blood-polsoning, after a week's illness. A dispatch was sent to her husband in San Francisco last Thursday advising him of her critical condition, but the message was not delivered to him until Saturday, when he left on the Owl for Los Angeles, reaching that city just after the train had left for Anaheim. When he arrived at home his wife had been dead a few minutes. The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon. Burial services were conducted by Rev. Chapman of the Presbyterian Engineers Lewis and Schneider for a report on the probable cost of the additional service. Request of W. P.

THunder An electrical disturbance in early hours of Sunday morning was productive of more thunder and lightning than has been experienced here this year. The disturbances were due to rain storms in Arizona. The sky was overcast and occasional showers of rain descended. The storm cleared off towards sunup, but there were distant peals of thunder from afar until after noon. No damage. CHURCH NOTES Rev.

SAILOR MAN WILL BECOME A FARMER Capt. Peterson Purchases Twenty Acres at Caledonia and Will Give Up the Sea Capt. Peter A. Peterson has purchased twenty acres of improved vineyard land from Alex Henry at Caledonia Grove, and will give up the sea and become a farmer. Capt. Peterson was in town on Tuesday, when the trade was completed. The sale was made by W.C. Eymann. Mr. Henry followed the sea himself for many a year, and he has two hobbies. One is that all sailormen are on the square, and the other that there is no luck on Friday. The first of these he has never seen fail, but he is a bit doubtful about the other, since meeting with Capt. Peterson. Henry was telling the party of his big well at his ranch, as they walked over to the vineyard, which has a fine crop of grapes upon the vines. "The well-borers came here on a Friday to begin work, but I wouldn't have it, and sent them back and told them to come back Monday." "They struck one of the finest flows of water in the county. Friday never had a bit of luck in it for anybody." "That's so sometimes;" replied Capt. Peterson, "but, you remember, our agreement for the purchase of my new place was signed on a Friday." Then they all repaired to Mr. Henry's house and talked about something else. Off for the East George Carroll received a dispatch on Monday from his father, who is in Fort Collins, Col., bidding him to come at once to that place in order to superintend the erection of beet dumps contracted for at that point by Mr. Carroll. Contracts have been signed for twenty-six dumps. George left yesterday for Colorado and will be absent during the greater part of the year. See our "Majestic" $2 ladies' shoes, Asher & Falkenstein.

Killed by Lightning A valuable young horse belonging to H.B. Luther, who resides two miles south of town, was killed by lightning on Sunday morning during the electrical disturbance. The electric current passed entirely through the body, and the horse was instantly killed. The shock threw Mr. Luther over a chair in the house, and one of the children was stunned but both escaped serious injury. New Hotel Man Robert Folkers, lately arrived from Phoenix, A.T., has purchased the interest of Landlord Adams in the Commercial hotel and will henceforth conduct the same.

Hospital The new hospital at Fullerton has been completed, and has been turned over to the board of directors. A reception will be given by the directors today from 3 to 9 p.m. for the purpose of allowing the general public to make an inspection as the building will practically be closed to visitors after the sick occupy it. The building is a two-story and basement structure containing twenty-one rooms in all, which includes the large operating room on the second floor. The building is heated by a large furnace and every modern convenience that could be had has been installed. The directors are Wm. Starbuck, B.G.Balcom, C.C. Chapman, Dr.C.L.Rich, Dr.Wm.Freeman; Dr.G.C.Clark of Fullerton; and Dr.Hasson of Buena Park. Medical Association The Orange County Medical Association met at the home of Dr.Herbert Johnson of this city some evenings ago. The doctor entertained his friends with a paper on "Modified Cow's Milk." A general discussion on the practical value of prepared infants' foods followed, the various staple articles of the market receiving attention. The next meeting will be held in the Santa Ana public library building. Dr.A.S.Gordon presenting the paper. Arrangements have been entered into with the directors for the establishment of a medical department in the library and also for a room in the basement of the building for the use of the organization, and all future meetings will be held there. The books for the medical library will be contributed largely by the members of the association from their private collections, the donation of the library of the late Dr.J.C. Crane by his widow Mrs.Crane, forming the nucleus. IS AGAIN VICTORIOUS Warm Aggregation of Imported Ball Talent from Darkest Los Angeles. Old adage in baseball that if the wins, it has got to be a poor game not to be a good one; inversely, if your side loses, must be pretty good one not bad one. Thus it is that the Sunday afternoon between the star flatters and the much Hamburgers of Los Angeles be in the former catagory, truth to tell, it was one of the exhibitions seen on the local in many a day.

Seven bits, and eight errors by the Los aggregation tells the story. Only eleven strike-outs by started a little crippness to the wellers took kindly to the delivery, and pounded it for 24 hits, netting 22 runs. His batting was a feature of the home run, two triples and a total of seven times up is a rec- well short-stop can well be made six hits out of seven times being a triple. Boys connected with the old made things lively for the les twirler who had the time with the boys from the tall score. The item last week that Forest Pyne had left life insurance to the amount of $13 000 to his widow was an error. It should have read "to his mother." That lady has already been paid part of the money. E. W. Pyne was in town on Saturday from Peralta, where he owns the famous Kirby orchard, he having purchased it last year. Mr. Pyne came in to attend the annual meeting of the local Orange Growers' Association, being a stockholder therein. BURIAL OF THE LATE FOREST PYNE Interred in Line Between Two Lots Owned by the Widow and the Other Relatives The contest over interment of the body of the late Forest Pyne, between his wife on one side and his mother and brother, on the other, was solved some days ago by burial of the remains in a Los Angeles cemetery on a line between two lots owned by the respective parties. Pyne had been married to his wife but a few months when he fell ill with diphtheria. His wife went East a month or two before his death, when there was little hope of his recovery. His brother says Pyne sent her home until he should recover, the brother adding the two did not live happily together. The widow, on the other hand, claims she was practically driven away by her husband's relatives. However, she returned a few days after her husband's death and her efforts to get possession of the body resulted in a suit by E. W. Pyne, brother of deceased, to restrain her from so doing. Pyne says the widow was desirous of cremating the remains, while he and the other members of the family opposed this procedure. A lot in the cemetery had been purchased by him at a cost of $700, and finally a compromise was effected between the parties when the widow was sold half the lot at a cost of $350, and the remains were buried on a line running midway between the lots. The widow is living with friends at Hollywood, and is said to be upon the point of bringing suit to recover a portion of her husband's estate, which E. W. Pyne states amounts to a single share in the Pyne Music company, and a house and lot at El Paso. The item last week that Forest Pyne had left life insurance to the amount of $13 000 to his widow was an error. It should have read "to his mother." That lady has already been paid part of the money. E. W. Pyne was in town on Saturday from Peralta, where he owns the famous Kirby orchard, he having purchased it last year. Mr. Pyne came in to attend the annual meeting of the local Orange Growers' Association, being a stockholder therein. PERSONAL MENTION HERE AND THE Mrs. N.

DANIELS STATES HIS POSITION Congressman Opposed to Reciprocity with Cuba—Home Growers Must Be Protected. Congressman M. J. Daniels of River-side has written the following letter to Dr. M. S. Jones of Santa Ana setting forth his position upon the question of Reciprocity: RIVERSIDE. July 30, 1903. Dr. M. S. Jones Santa Ana, Cal.-My Dear Doctor: I take pleasure in acknowledging the postal card and clipping from the Herald relating to the Porto Rico oranges. I had read T. D. Mott's article with some interest and from his statement things are somewhat alarming, but I am under the impression that he has overdrawn the danger from that source. The great products of Porto Rico are sugar, coffee tobacco and bananas and I believe that if the tariff is off of those products in Porto Rico and remains on in Cuba that Porto Rico will be inclined to stick to those commodities. There are but few oranges raised in Porto Rico at the present time. I think their importations of oranges are less than $2000 in value and it is quite a long way from the planting of an orange tree until its producing qualities reach a commercial value. I am satisfied they can never produce a seedless orange like our naval and the seedless orange is the one now that commands the orange markets of the East. The seedling orange will in the future be rated as second class. But it proves conclusively that if we have to meet such strong competition from our own possessions there is great importance in maintaining a high protective tariff, on foreign products, which shall always be my earnest endeavor. To show the benefits of the protective tariff, the year prior to the adoption of the one cent a pound tariff on citrus fruit the importations from Italy reached the enormous value of eight million dollars which amount the United States contributed to that country. The year following this amount was reduced to three million, which proves that five million were distributed among the producers on American soil of the American product, I would like to see a tariff so fixed that we could retain the other three million for the benefit of the producing class in this country. As to Cuba I believe that the producer Gebhart has a new baby girl, which arrived at his home on Santa Ana street some days ago. Miss Kate Rea returned this week from Berkeley, where she attended the summer session of the university. Rev. Chapman of the Presbyterian church will occupy one of the Baum cottages as soon as it is completed. Mrs. Staley of Placentia is entertaining her nieces the Misses Hattie, Edith and Laura Teague of Pomona. A. M. Jones was presented by his wife on Sunday morning at the family residence in Los Angeles with a bright baby girl. Mr. Bastanchury has let 'contract for his new home. It will be in the mission style of architecture and will cost $8000. Mrs. Tombs and daughter Miss Bertha Tombs of Los Angeles are spending the summer on their ranch in PlacentiaMrs. Peter Weisel and her sisters, the Misses Klein of Milwaukee, have returned from a ten days' outing at Catalina. Rev. Hilmer of the German M.E.church returned this week with his family from the annual camp-meeting at Prospect Park. Sam Kraemer has just completed his new residence in Placentia. It is built of brick and is one of the handsomest homes in the county.

Counselors States His Position Congressman Opposed to Reciprocity with Cuba—Home Growers Must Be Protected. Congressman M. J. Daniels of River-side has written the following letter to Dr. M.S.Jones of Santa Ana setting forth his position upon the question of Reciprocity: RIVERSIDE. July 30, 1903. Dr. M.S.Jones Santa Ana, Cal.-My Dear Doctor: I take pleasure in acknowledging the postal card and clipping from the Herald relating to the Porto Rico oranges. I had read T.D.Mott's article with some interest and from his statement things are somewhat alarming, but I am under the impression that he has overdrawn the danger from that source. The great products of Porto Rico are sugar, coffee tobacco and bananas and I believe that if the tariff is off of those products in Porto Rico and remains on in Cuba that Porto Rico will be inclined to stick to those commodities. There are but few oranges raised in Porto Rico at the present time. I think their importations of oranges are less than $2000 in value and it is quite a long way from the planting of an orange tree until its producing qualities reach a commercial value. I am satisfied they can never produce a seedless orange like our naval and the seedless orange is the one now that commands the orange markets of the East. The seedling orange will in the future be rated as second class. But it proves conclusively that if we have to meet such strong competition from our own possessions there is great importance in maintaining a high protective tariff, on foreign products, which shall always be my earnest endeavor. To show the benefits of the protective tariff, the year prior to the adoption of the one cent a pound tariff on citrus fruit the importations from Italy reached the enormous value of eight million dollars which amount the United States contributed to that country. The year following this amount was reduced to three million, which proves that five million were distributed among the producers on American soil of the American product, I would like to see a tariff so fixed that we could retain the other three million for the benefit of the producing class in this country. As to Cuba I believe that the producer Gebhart has a new baby girl, which arrived at his home on Santa Ana street some days ago. Miss Kate Rea returned this week from Berkeley, where she attended the summer session of the university. Rev.
