Regular meeting of board of directors with following members present: Directors Crowther, Bradford, Hale, Sherwood, McDermont and Zeyn. Minutes of the preceding meeting were read and approved. Zeyn reported that the roadway has not been opened by Anderson and Robertson. He also reported that in the Placentia district many of the water-measuring gates are missing and that irrigators were receiving streams which the measuring committee found no conveniences for measuring. The finance committee reported the Cota and Rivas tracts to be worth a yearly rental of $200. On motion of Hale and Zeyn it was resolved to rent those tracts to M. Bolseranc if he wants them at that price, otherwise to other parties. Report of the finance committee was accepted and warrants were ordered drawn in payment of the several amounts as therein recommended. It showed demands on the treasury amounting to $7968.90, and available cash $2447.66. Reports of the secretary, treasurer and superintendent were each in turn received and filed. Superintendent Porter reported verbally that owing to the irregularities in the tunnels the cement walls are in places as much as eight inches thick. The secretary was instructed to inform Mr. Linebarger that the livery bill recently presented by him was incurred by the cook of the A. U. W.

The secretary was instructed to look up the ALL-NIGHT ELECTRIC LIGHTS Service to Be Installed Immediately, Sufficient Business Offering to Justify Move The city trustees at their meeting on Tuesday heard report from committee appointed to canvass the town relative to firms and individuals who desire an all-night electric lighting service. Marshal Steadman reported he had interviewed a number of business firms and private parties and had secured sufficient business to justify installation of an all-night service. Engineer Lewis was accordingly instructed to employ an extra man at the power house. The trustees placed Lewis in charge of the power house, he being the captain of the ship. The marshal reported following collections for August: Total amount collected, $1022.55; less 5 per cent for collecting, $51.12; net amount deposited with treasurer, $971.43.

OIL DRILLERS MEET DEFEAT Apex of Los Angeles too Heavy for foothill Favorites — Another NEW BEACH TOWN, BAYSIDE Lying a Short Distance Northwest of Anaheim Landing—Electric Railway from Long Beach. Bayside is the latest aspirant for vor among beach resorts in Southern California, and it will probably long develop into one of the most popular, its natural advantages being perior to those of any other on the coast. The new townsite occupies nothing less than the famous Anaheim Landing beach, where for a quarter a century Orange county folk have gone to bathe and spend a month two at the seaside during the summer. Many cottages have been erected on the old Landing by regular visitors; the shore, and these have been occupied by their owners each summer. For years the rumor has prevailed times to the effect that a fine hotel would be erected at the Landing for accommodation of its constantly increasing throng of visitors. One after another these reports have proven to be premature, until now it is given out that extensive improvements are contemplation. County Surveyor Finley and a corps of men have been engaged this week in laying out the new townsite, which as indicated, will be named Bayside. The point chosen for the new town is a short distance from the old Landing warehouse, and occupies one of the finest natural beaches on the coast. Here there is still water as well as surf bathing, no undertow such as man-made beaches farther north, and drowning at this place was never known. The point is near the mouth of New river and furnishes the finest fishing grounds on the Southern California coast. The Huntington electric railway reaches the townsite from Long Beach and is being pushed rapidly southeastly in the direction of Pacific City. This route will be notably scenic in its course along the bay shore, and at the Landing will have a long bridge carrying it across the water to the island on the south. Many notable improvements are contemplated by the owners. A delegation of Anaheim capitalists who visited the point the other day have made advances looking to the construction of an electric railway line connecting this city with the new beach town. LITTLE CHILD EATS ROUGH ON RATA Superintendent Porter reported verbally that owing to the irregularities in the tunnels the cement walls are in places as much as eight inches thick. The secretary was instructed to inform Mr. Linebarger that the livery bill recently presented by him was incurred by the cook of the A. U. W. Co. labor camp, but for his private use and with no authority from any officer of the A. U. W. Co. A communication was received from C.S. Miles relative to a cement ditch on his west line, section 33. The secretary was instructed to look up the matter and inform Mr. Miles of the action of the board. A communication from Frank Miller having been already answered by the secretary, was placed on file. An application was received from Tousseau Brothers for the privilege of leasing the La Habra reservoir site for two years at a time. On motion the president and secretary were authorized to lease to Tousseau Brothers the La Habra reservoir site for a year in addition to that of the latest lease, provided that payment be made in cash now. A communication from Vic Montgomery called attention to the bad condition of the gates in the ditches near his ranch, and asked that the same be repaired as soon as possible as considerable water is being lost by the irrigators. Referred to the superintendent with power. Moved by Sherwood, seconded by Hale, That that portion of the Cajon canal between the west end of flume 4 and the west end of the fill west of tunnel "C" be cemented with the same cross section used east of flume 4; and that the superintendent be instructed to get the necessary gravel on the ground as soon as possible. Applications on file for the transfer of stock were on motion granted by the board. On motion the meeting adjourned. P. H. KRICK, Sec. A. U. W. Co. P. S.-Permit me to call attention to the apparent deficit of $5521.24 as per report of the finance committee, which is an error. The largest item, namely $5043.33, was paid last month and should not be included in the expenditures of this month. The true deficit is but $477.91. P. H. KRICK, Secy. MR. BACON SINGS THE OLD STORY Asks for Contributions for Support of Famished Children in India EDITOR GAZETTE:—I have before me a circular from an anonymous source, entitled "Help for the children rescued from the famine in India," etc. Don't know who sent it, but it is signed by Mr. Philip Bacon, Springfield, Mass., calling for subscriptions for relief of these British subjects, or someone else. Never heard of Indian missionaries interesting themselves in behalf of orphans in the United States, in fact it is not necessary. Questions of this nature are taken care of by our own people. The State of California is generous, and the little Catholic orphanage in our city received and filed. Theo Rimpau wrote the board that he would install 22 electric lights in his residence on Palm street if board would erect an arc light at the corner of Palm and Broadway. No action taken. The board purchased ten tons of hay from Ed Kraemer; price, $9 on the ranch. OIL DRILLERS MEET DEFEAT Apex of Los Angeles too Heavy for foothill Favorites — Another Game Sunday. Olinda met with its first defeat at the hands of a Los Angeles nine this season on Sunday afternoon at Baseball Park, the score being 14 to 6. The Indians were weakened by the absence of Barnett and label, two of team's heaviest hitters. The boys touched up the foreigner's pitcher as heavily as the latter landed on Crips, but nine life-sized errors could not help leaving their mark. Olinda had an off day, and was outclassed by the foreigners. The report circulated in town that Reilly, Householder, Gannon and some of the rest of the punk Prager Park outfit would come and show us a thing or two proved to be a Texas leaguer, but it had all the car-marks of the advance press agent who has escaped to the hills. However, the foreigners were quite heavy enough without the assistance of the professionals. The score: OLINDA AB. R. H. PO. A. K Bayburn, cf.

'The foreigners will have several of the best players with us last Sunday, and a pleasant afternoon is anticipated. Brigadier Hatfield will dispense red lemonade and fresh roasted peacots, and there will be a real sociable time. Barnett and Iabelle will be on deck and when we get through with the foreigners their dearest friends won't know them. Idle Cannery California Canners' association, operating the cannery at Santa Ana, has signified its willingness to start the city in the direction of Pacific City. This route will be notably scenic in its course along the bay shore, and at the Landing will have a long bridge carrying it across the water to the island on the south. Many notable improvements are contemplated by the owners. A delegation of Anaheim capitalists who visited the point other day have made advances looking to the construction of an electric railway line connecting this city with the new beach town. LITTLE CHILD EATS ROUGH ON RATE Prompt Action by Dr. Tyler Saves Its Life—Papa Rice Good Sprint. The year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. F. Rice while crawling about the house on Saturday afternoon at o'clock came upon some candy poisoned with rough on rats, which is found behind a dresser in an adjoining room. The child had been missed by its mother but an instant, when on its discovery Mrs. Rice was horrified at observing the infant's mouth covered with the poison and its hand holding a piece of the candy. Mr. Rice happened providentially to return home at this time, and to hint at the alarmed mother told the exciting story. Rice picked up the little one and dashed with it into the front yard, out of the gate and down town in a faster sprint than his 200 pounds ever covered before. He ran to Dr. Bickford's office. The doctor was out. He ran with the infant to Dr. Tyler's office across the street. Dr. Tyler promptly administered the emergency treatment in such cases provided, and in a moment the child was vomiting freely. How much of the poison the little one swallowed is not known, but the treatment caused it to eject contents of the stomach thoroughly for several minutes. After responding to the emetic child was taken home and soon fell asleep. At dusk, when neighbor-ho had just heard of its experience called, it was wide awake, prattling as never before. "I have been in several tight places in my time," said Rice after the excitement was over, "but this beat them all. I was stood up once by footpads and had a pistol shoved right into my teeth. I never lost my nerve." But when I happened home this afternoon and noon and my wife called to me to run for the doctor, adding the baby had taken poison, say, I didn't know what I was doing. I grabbed up the baby and ran. Oh, yes, he's all over it now." The poisoned candy had been gathered by the landlord who had been cleaning house. She left behind the dresser, expecting momentarily to take it out and destroy it. The little one has suffered no ill effects of the poison, and is in the enjoyment of its usual health. The Big Show Coming EDITOR GAZETTE:—I have before me a circular from an anonymous source, entitled "Help for the children rescued from the famine in India," etc. Don't know who sent it, but it is signed by Mr. Philip Bacon, Springfield, Mass., calling for subscriptions for relief of these British subjects, or someone else. Never heard of Indian missionaries interesting themselves in behalf of orphans in the United States, in fact it is not necessary. Questions of this nature are taken care of by our own people. The State of California is generous, and the little Catholic orphanage in our city receives from our tax-payers by state appropriation, about $1000 per month. This is liberal beyond doubt. I would suggest to Philip Bacon of Springfield, Mass., that charity begins at home, and there is an extensive field open right here in the United States for local philanthropists, and assistance from our able classes would be appreciated. Mr. Bacon is singing the old. old song, that has been whistled for years. He says he will receive subscriptions, and promises to take good care of every dollar shipped to him as solicitor. This is well, Mr. Bacon, and I wish you unlimited success, in the starving Indian scheme. I trust our people will fully appreciate the motive and respond liberally as they think advisable. Respectfully, T. A. DARLING. ANAHEIM, Sept. 5th. The Renewal a Strain Vacation is over. Again the school bell rings at morning and at noon again with tens of thousands the hardest kind of work has begun, the renewal of which is a mental and physical strain to all except the most rugged. The little girl that a few days ago had roses in her cheeks, and the little boy whose lips were then so red you would have insisted that they had been "kissed by strawberries," have already lost something of the appearance of health. Now is a time when many children should be given a tonic, which may avert much serious trouble, and we know of no other so highly to be recommended as Hood's Saraparilla, which strengthens the nerves, perfects digestion and assimilation and aids mental development by building up the whole system. Idle Cannery California Canners' association, operating the cannery at Santa Ana, has signified its willingness to start the cannery for the purpose of making a thirty days' run on tomatoes, but a canvass of the situation is said to have convinced those interested that sufficient help cannot be procured and the project has, in consequence, been given up. The cannery has been idle for the last two years. Private advices from Santa Ana are to the effect that the low rate of wage offered by the cannery is the cause of a lack of labor. The institution is thought to have had a touch of the combine ague. Local Briefs A reception will be tendered at the Christian church this (Thursday) evening in honor of Rev.

The Big Show Coming The announcement that Ringling Brothers' World's Greatest Show will exhibit in Santa Ana will be received with more than usual interest by the people in this neighborhood. The Ringling Brothers have a name that stands for all that is new, novel and entertaining in the circus line, and the management announces that this season the show has been enlarged to such an extent that a whole train is used in addition to the four trains of last season.
