It’s like treading some banquet hall deserted, this business of taking the Santa Fe accommodation train between local points, instead of boarding the through San Diego train, which doesn’t stop at local points any more. But trains are now on time as a result of it and we ought to be thankful for that. Perhaps through trains cannot make time, in the present congested state of travel if stops are made, and if local passengers are to be sacrificed to the convenience of others, it only shows what an insignificant part of the world at large we are. Through passengers are entitled to be transported between outlying points on time, and if this is the only way the railway company can do it, more power to its elbow say we. Through travel is heavy and getting heavier, and if we cannot ride in these limited trains we can at least look out of the accommodation’s windows and envy the more fortunate passengers on the train which pulls out ahead of us, and for which we have to wait until it gets beyond the next station before we make a start, although we take desperate chances on missing our evening meal thereby. But Passenger Agent Byrne is a great and good man, and lies awake at nights thinking up schemes to accommodate the constantly increasing tide of travel over his road. We doff our sombrero to him, and hope he is having lots of fun over this discomfiture of Orange county travelers. Los Angeles fishermen have lately come in for no little criticism owing to their peddling of “cold-storage” fish, upon which, it is charged, a preparation known as “preservaline” is used. This substance, like formaldehyde, which Los Angeles milkmen have used to preserve milk, is poisonous, and use of either should be prohibited. In fact, several Los Angeles milkmen have been recently heavily fined for placing this deleterious substance in milk. But that is not MEETING OF CITY TRUSTEES The board of trustees met in regular session Tuesday evening. Present, Messrs. Schneider, M. Fletcher, Weisel. The marshal reported the following collection for water, $232.55; license, $453; light, $472.80; $1158.35. The following delinquents were reported: water, $27.20; license, $2.50; light, $32.80; total, $666.84. The recorder reported the collection of $27 as imposed in five criminal cases. The committee on public improvements report that water connections had been made for Mr. Ling on Lemon street and for E. W. McCollum onadelphia street; that the houses of the following town had been wired for electric lights: E. A. Z. West Center street; L. Nemetz on East Center; Kleaver on Chartres and Olive streets and E. W. Collum on Philadelphia street; that the water connection broken by the settling of the new water tank been repaired; that the city teams had been busy chuck holes and have oiled East and Lemon street and that another carload of oil for road sprinklers would be received on Thursday. The finance committee reported favorably on aggregating $2089.36, and they were ordered paid. The ordinance committee introduced an order regulating the keeping of chickens and other farm animals, and it was read the first time. If theance is adopted it will be unlawful to allow your ens to run at large or upon your neighbors’ premises. Bid of McWilliams & Dunn for new roof over house was accepted. They offered to do the work $252. It was ordered that a contract be prepared signed by the president of the board and the coors, the work to be completed by January 1st. No bids were received for constructing the walk on North Los Angeles street, and a resolution re-advertise for bids was adopted. Trustee Weisel recommended that the sales the city teamsters be increased from $45 to $50 month, as they had to furnish stable room horses. His motion to that effect was adopted. Los Angeles fishermen have lately come in for no little criticism owing to their peddling of "cold-storage" fish, upon which, it is charged, a preparation known as "preservaline" is used. This substance, like formaldehyde, which Los Angeles milkmen have used to preserve milk, is poisonous, and use of either should be prohibited. In fact, several Los Angeles milkmen have been recently heavily fined for placing this deleterious substance in milk. But that is not what we started out to write. Milk sold here is pure and wholesome, and there exists no good reason why practices of unscrupulous Los Angeles dealers should be patterned after by our dairymen. With sales of fish in Orange county the matter seems to be somewhat different. It is said that "cold-storage" fish are being sold in the county, and inasmuch as the fish is understood to be treated with the poisonous preservaline, buyers should be careful about purchasing. We have at our very doors, as it were, the finest fishing ground in the world, and there would seem to be no good reason why fresh, wholesome fish cannot be offered for sale, instead of "cold-storage" truck, use of which may be attended by harmful results. A rigorous inspection of all fish offered for sale in Orange county should be made by health officers. Frank Ey has laid before the board of supervisors a plan whereby he avers the tramp evil may be in great part averted. Frank's panacea for the elimination of the hobo is patterned after the system prevailing in Germany, where they have no Weary Willies, or, having had them, the system has completely stamped them out. The plan is to provide every traveler with a species of passport, giving name, address, birth place and other essentials concerning the identity of the tourist. This means of identification is for the purpose of sending all characters who cannot give a good account of themselves back to their home town. Thus all communities sending out hoboes would be made to support them, and those producing none would have none to molest them, and the "bo" crop would soon be a thing of the past. Frank will lay his plan before the approaching session of the League of Municipalities, and an effort effort will be made to form a state law embodying features of the German law. The scheme, in a word, seeks to prevent the roving about of the idle and dissolute, and despite the propensity of the unthinking to poke fun at it, it may go a long ways towards solving the vexed problem of the trump and all his attendant evils. An article from the pen of H. Clay Kellogg appears upon the front page this morning, and will doubtless be perused with interest by our readers. Mr. Kellogg is engineering the construction of a large reservoir in Hawaii, and of this enterprise he writes in a vein of characteristic interest. The Wahiawa Colony, for which the reservoir is being constructed, was organized by Byron O. Clark, a former resident of Anaheim, and he is regarded as the Lord Mayor of his road. We do our sombrero to him, and hope he is having lots of fun over this disconfluence of Orange county travelers. Bid of McWilliams & Dunn for new roof over house was accepted. They offered to do the work $252. It was ordered that a contract be prepared signed by the president of the board and the coors, the work to be completed by January 1st. No bids were received for constructing the walk on North Los Angeles street, and a resolution advertise for bids was adopted. Trustee Weisel recommended that the sale the city teamsters be increased from $45 to $60 month, as they had to furnish stable room horses. His motion to that effect was adopted. SECRETARY OF STATE CURRY has our thank you copy of the 1903 Blue Book. ANAHEIM's crack team of bowlers compose Warling, C. Fisher, R. Jones, E. Stone and C. defeated Santa Ana at the Maple alleys on Tuesday by a score of 2297 to 2204. The Santa Ana was composed of Forgy, Tubbs, Patton, Ludl Mack. Warling made high roll, 198; Fisher high age, 178. CROSSED wires on Tuesday afternoon conspire put street arcs out of commission, and public tha fares were in darkness, the first time in many The windstorm played havoc with wires in al tions. The Edison transmission line was without on Friday, which was caused by the Fredalba fi ning a number of poles. Gangs of men have b ployed this week at repairs. ANOTHER daily newspaper is promised for Ana, its first appearance to be made Monday candidate for public favor will be the Morning now published as a weekly. Santa Ana has a wide-awake daily in the Evening Blade, growth of the city and surroundings has been that another daily follows in the natural events. The Blade has recently installed a net and has otherwise added to its equipment un now one of the completest newspaper plants state. To the new candidate for public favor, to the one now occupying the field, continu perity. SENATOR PERKINS has concluded that further in behalf of Dr. Chester Rowell, who was endo Senator Bard and other members of the Califor nation for member of the Isthmian Canal Com would be fruitless, and has asked the President M. H. DeYoung, proprietor of the San Franciscoicle. "The President told Senator Foster that not feel that he could appoint Dr. Rowell," said Perkins. "I was willing to join with Senator favor of Rowell as long as there was any chance but in view of the President's decision I have at the appointment of my good friend DeYoung man who has demonstrated his ability, and I th e kind of man the President wants." EVERYTHING that happens at Riverside for ten years will doubtless be attributed to Town providing, of course, that such happenings be seamy sort.

Clay Kellogg appears upon the front page this morning, and will doubtless be perused with interest by our readers. Mr. Kellogg is engineering the construction of a large reservoir in Hawaii, and of this enterprise he writes in a vein of characteristic interest. The Wahiawa Colony, for which the reservoir is being constructed, was organized by Byron O. Clark, a former resident of Anaheim, and he is regarded as the Lord Mayor of the settlement. L. C. Kellogg is the manager of the Hawaiian Fruit and Plant company and the Wahiawa Water company. Mr. Kellogg hopes to return to his home in Orange county in time to spend Christmas with his family. He has a standing offer to remain on the Islands at a good salary, but, on account of superior educational facilities for his children, prefers this state. He has been several months on the Islands; and will probably return thither for another stay during the new year. FULLERTON is again talking of incorporation and there seems to be a unanimity of opinion on the part of progressive citizens looking to that end. The proposed municipality embraces eighteen square miles of territory, which, if the proposition carries at the polls, ought to start the new town government off with excellent prospects of bringing lasting benefits to those within the corporation. Anaheim's territorial area is not two square miles. Taxes will be higher in the new town than is now figured upon by some of its enthusiasts, and more expenses will crop out than are at present discernible on the surface, but after all is said incorporation is what our neighbor needs and what it should have had long ago. The initial trouble lies in placing the lines bounding the new municipality. Let them be fixed right, then go ahead and incorporate. Now Venezuela threatens to march an army into Columbia in retaliation of the alleged purpose of the latter power to invade Panama. Venezuela is under no little obligation to Uncle Samuel, as what South American country is not, and whether this report of her warlike attitude toward Colombia is due to a purpose of evening up friendly snow with us, or of a desire to take a fall out of Mr. Marroquie and his tribesmen, is not apparent. But whatever the purpose, it seems settled that Columbia has a walloping dee her, and it may compose sooner than she now expects it. EVERYTHING that happens at Riverside for ten years will doubtless be attributed to Town providing, of course, that such happenings be seamy sort. Mr. Hays is charged with having run county with a political rod of iron, and to have ed thousands in rake-offs, notably from the newly structured courthouse. The grand jury is admonishing the rumors of graft prevalent at Riverside and all that sort of thing. From a grafter of pute, Hays seems to have grown to a chap of so national reputation. Nevertheless, apart from swindling 'the Salt Lake railway in rights-of-willers, all these late stories of his colossal graft ably the imaginings of the rattle-pated space-writter a balance is struck by local merchants at the end of the year the fact will be made aware that a larger volume of business has been tried by them than during any previous year in history. This is true likewise of every mercantor in Orange county. Few firms in the town have had business attended by greater profits previous year—it is to be doubted if there such. Local merchants report a spirited trade, although it is true that a downpour would accelerate business wonderfully. But they has been a record-breaker in the community county. More business is being done in Anahale day than at any previous period in her history. RAIN still hangs off and price of hay has reed to $12. A generous downpour between no holidays would tend to improve matters However, it is yet too early to make wry facetive to the season's rainfall. The best years ever had have been those during which no rain fallen until well along in December. We have gone to the later part of January without moose and have heard the dry-year croakers' chorus that time, only to be deluged with such copious pours as to set at rest all doubt as to the season come. It is the late rains which make crops look for an abundance of them, right along onule time. Yet a soaker of about three inches Christmas would be quite acceptable about this CITY TRUSTEES Measures met in regular session on ment, Messrs.

Foreign Fruit Notes Report of Alexander Wingartner, United States consul, Catania, Sicily, Italy, October 16, 1903; The prospects for the winter lemon crop in this consular district may be called satisfactory. The quality in general is good—fully as good as last year—and the quantity will be greater. The estimates of the crop in the provinces of Catania and Syracuse is 1,250,000 boxes. Prices for the small amount of business done to this date ruled at lire 7 to 7.50 ($1.35 to $1.45) per box. It is not expected that many shipments from this port will be made to the United States. Shipments of almonds have been light and the stock on hand is larger than usual for this time. Dealers claim that Spain is quoting lower prices on the better grades which they can hardy meet, and in consequence are holding stocks. The amount on hand in this district is estimated at 35,000 bags of 100 kilos (220.4 lbs). Further shipments of large amounts to America are probable. Call us up by phone and we will be there.

Extra large or small ones are apt to produce deformed chicks. Turkeys are not so sure to come home as other fowls; hence it is a good plan to mark them in some way. Feed the young chicks often if you would have them growing rapidly, but do not feed more at a time than they will eat up clean in a few minutes. Destroy the old nests as soon as the hens come off with the chicks. The safest and best plan is to burn all of the material. Healthy fowls pick up their food quickly and relish it. When they go at it lazily, pick up a grain or two and then stop something is wrong. Never shut the fowls up in such close quarters that they cannot take enough exercise to promote digestion.

The young man who had spent his efforts for several years without result in studying art was talking with his practical uncle, who had patiently paid the bills. "Of course," said the young artist. "I know I haven't made much of a go of it, but I don't think you ought to advise me to try something else. You know it's best to put all your eggs in one basket and watch that basket." "Un!
