The Weekly Gazette ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. HENRY KUCHEL, Editor and Proprietor THURSDAY...January 7, 1904 CHANGE OF LOCATION. The Gazette printing establishment has begun moving to larger quarters on the ground floor of the opera house building. Negotiations for the renting of the building were in progress for some time between the agent of the property, Mr. M. Nebelung, representing the owners, Messrs. Thiele and Hartman of Los Angeles, and the publisher of this journal. The new office of this establishment is located in the eastern room of the building, which affords one of the largest and best lighted offices in the county. It also gives additional room for the installation of a new job press and such other material as the demands of the times now require. The new office will be made one of the most complete and best arranged in the county. Mr. Schindler has been at work retouching the plastering and imparting to the interior a kalsomining finish in keeping with the demands of the oldest as well as the leading newspaper of the county. Our patrons are cordially invited to call and see us in our new office, into which we are moving today. The latch string will hang without a welcome awaits within. The Gazette has occupied its old quarters, under its present management, upward of sixteen years. It was in the building since its erection, some twenty years ago. Our new office is larger and better fitted in every way for our purposes, and we purpose making of it a model printing office. THE PRESIDENT AND PANAMA. Congress met in regular session on Monday, when President Roosevelt sent in his message on the Panama canal. In his message occur the following points related to his position upon the Isthmian waterway: "I certainly maintain that the recognition of the republic of Panama was an act justified by the interests of collective civilization." THE LAND LORD, from whom we part company, after a pleasing seance of a dozen years. There are worse men in the world than he, although they are becoming scarcer day by day. The Landlord comes from Leavenworth, Kansas, where at an early age he was apprenticed to a leading matzo manufacturer. Horace Greeley's advice, came west, was written board ship, reached Anaheim without a penny; is rated as among the wealthiest trust magnates crowning affliction of his life was when he was a member of the town trustees, some years ago; enemies have still further designs upon him; they are going to nominate him for congress democratic ticket. Our relations have been pleasant, and we trust they may long so continue. CONSTRUCTION work on the new San Pedro Angeles and Salt Lake railroad across the Desert Daggett into Nevada, is to be rushed with energy throughout the present year. It was centrally by a member of John H. Norton & Co., which has the contract for the readbed, month the grading force, which numbers some and animals, is to be more than doubled in strength. Black bass are killing land-locked salmon thousands in American Lake, south of Tacoma. With rows of dead fish making a white streak entirely around the lake, report says more fish tinually swimming wearily up to the beach to and die. Their death apparently results from injury. In every case their tails are missing, their sides have been gouged and sliced out. ing their spawning season, it is believed that the black bass, plentiful in American Lake, take so of their weakened condition after spawning them. MANAGER HIMCHOLLIFFA of the Sunset Telephone pany was in town this week feeling of the public and spying out the land with reference to the THE PRESIDENT AND PANAMA. Congress met in regular session on Monday, when President Roosevelt sent in his message on the Panama canal. In his message occur the following points relate to his position upon the Isthmian waterway: "I certainly maintain that the recognition of the republic of Panama was an act justified by the interests of collective civilization. If ever a government could be said to have received a mandate from civilization to effect an object to accomplishment of which was demanded in the interests of mankind the United States holds that position with regard to the inter-oceanic canal. "By our prompt action not only have our interests and those of the world at large been conserved, but we have forestalled complications which were likely to be fruitful in loss to ourselves and in bloodshed and suffering to the people of the isthmus. "It would be well for those who are pessimistic as to our action in peacefully recognizing the republic of Panama, while we lawfully protested the transit from invasion and disturbance, to recall what has been done in Cuba, where we intervened even by force on general grounds of national interest and duty. When we is interfered it was freely prophesied that we intended to keep Cuba and administer it for our own interests. Results have demonstrated in a singularly conclusive fashion the falsity of this prophecy. Cuba is now an independent republic. "The people of the Isthmus, and I firmly believe of the adjacent parts of Central and South America, will be greatly benefitted by the building of the canal, and the guarantee of peace and order along its line; and hand in hand with the benefit to them will go the benefit to us and to mankind." Ex-Gov. Frank S. Black of New York, in addition to being asked by Republican leaders to accept election as delegate-at-large to the republican national convention, which will meet in Chicago next June, also has been asked to deliver the speech placing Theodore Roosevelt in nomination for president. The difficulty in the way of ex-Gov. Black's immediate acceptance of the proposed duty is said to be his own reluctance to take so prominent a part in the nomination of President Roosevelt, in view of the doubt that he is an enthusiastic Roosevelt man. This doubt has existed principally among the president's admirers, ever since the 1898 New York state convention, when Col. Roosevelt was nominated for governor, thus depriving Black, who was then governor, of a renomination. Nevertheless, it is well known that Governor Black did not sulk in his tent, but cheerfully did all in his power to secure the election of Col. Roosevelt. Yet there are close personal friends of Black who are avowed political enemies of the president. This is largely responsible for the feeling in certain quarters that Black is not an enthusiastic supporter of the president. At any rate, there is sufficient doubt in the matter for Black to hesitate about the propriety of his attending the national convention as delegate-at-large from a state that is pledged to Roosevelt's nomination. MANAGER HINCHOLLIFF OF THE Sunset Telephone was in town this week feeling of the public and spying out the land with reference to the Home Telephone company making an into this territory. It is given out on good faith that the toll imposed by the company on all between Anaheim and northern Orange county will be out out, as Mr. Hichcliffe has conceived so often on the part to do. This said tolls will have to go, and the telephone station made more useful as well as ornamental than all this is due, so the dicky birds say, to the pro-vigorous competition coming into the field. The tolls, or no tolls, let the new telephone company on. Let there be no misunderstanding about Anaheim is the objective point of many new entrants not the least of which is the electric railway business houses are in prospect and a general is promised all along the line. Let the Home Telephone come on. CLARENCE EDWARDS, chief of the insular borough war department has made public circular for $7,000,000 Philippine land purchase both proceeds of which are to be applied to the purifar lands. The bonds will be registered in institutions from $1000 to $10,000, dated February 1904, bearing 4 per cent interest, payable United States treasury in gold coin. The bond run for from ten to thirty years and be free forms of faxation, either in the Philippines or United States. Subscriptions will be payable New York sub-treasury, where the bonds will delivered. The circular recites that these bonds be accepted by the secretary of the treasury and security for the deposit of public money, shorter deposits be made, and may be substituted United States gold bonds now held as security during circulation whenever, in the judge's discretion of the treasury, it is desirable to late an increase in national bank circulation. The monthly statement of the public debt that at the close of business December 31, 1906, less cash in the treasury, amounted to 150,880, which is a decrease for the month of January 1906. The debt is recapitulated as follows: In bearing debt, $901,747,220; debt on which interest ceased since maturity, $1,191,539; debt bear interest, $390,582,025; total, $1,292,525,775. Amount however does not include $935,328 certificates and treasury notes outstanding, which offset by an equal amount of cash on hand their redemption. The cash in the treasury is fied as follows: Gold reserve fund, $150,000 trust funds, $935,328,869; general fund, $148,131 in national bank depositories, $172,159,338; $1,405,621,982 against which there are demands... CALIFORNIA seems to be immensely popular with the Louisiana Purchase Exposition people at St. Louis, for they have just telegraphed to Washington that they are going to give California some more space at the Exposition building, so that now California has more than fifty per cent more space than any other state, including old Missouri herself. Some days ago Frank Wiggins of Los Angeles, who was a member of the exposition for California, telegraphed Senator Perkins that California would need more space, and asked Senator Perkins to bear down heavy on President Francis, and this week got a reply granting more space and making these observations: "The space just added to the previous allotment to California in the agriculture building gives California more space than any other exhibitor, foreign or domestic. She has 50 per cent more than any other state, although Missouri has $1,000,000 to spend on her exhibits. Only two states have as much as one-third of the amount assigned to California. Have tried not only to be fair, but generous, although space in that building is more than twice applied for. I desire to express the most cordial appreciation of the great assistance you have rendered the exposition." The burning of the Iroquois theatre in Chicago with its appaling life sacrifice, tends to recall the tempt by the anarchist Hodges to dynamite Grand opera house in San Francisco along in the mer of 1887, while Madame Patti was singing out of her "farewell tours." The diva has since been two farewell tours of the United States, and this appears in Los Angeles again—may good luck after her. Hodges in some act came within an ace of tinging the play house afire, and a dreadful hollow was narrowly averted. He occupied a seat in one of the upper galleries, and as the famed singer had peared for the sixth or seventh recall, after her song, he hurled a lighted bomb upon the stage exploded with a loud report, putting out the lights and filling the auditorium with smoke. Panic ensued. Women fainted, men swore and utmost of excitement prevailed on all sides. A gauzy wings of the stage took fire, lending a glow to the smoke-filled playhouse. Patti's friend had been insisting that she sing "The Last Rose Summer," but she smiled and declined. Suddenly as the maddened audience sought to effect an escape the notes of the song bird were heard above them and racket. Patti was singing the old song, when once heard, is loved so well. What followed? Before it takes to tell it that crazed audience stood enraptured and listened. Theatre attendants about the house lighting the gas, raising window opening doors and when Patti had concluded panic was over. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS For the Week Ending January 4.

FREEMAN Center Street. Wedding Bells Birla V. Beebe and Mrs. Ida M. Cripple were married at noon Wednesday of last week at the residence of the bride's mother, Mrs. Witte, in Los Angeles. Rev. W. H. Chapman, pastor of the Presbyterian church in this city, performed the ceremony and Mrs. Chapman played the wedding marche. There were no attendants, and only the relatives and a few immediate friends of the contracting parties witnessed the ceremony, which was a very quiet one, owing to the fact that the aged father of the groom is critically ill. The residence was handsomely decorated in holly, similax and evergreen, and after the ceremony an elegant wedding breakfast was served. Later in the day Mr. and Mrs. Beebe left Upland, the residence of Mr. Beebe's father, for a brief honeymoon. Mr. Beebe took his friends completely by surprise, the wedding being known of in advance by only a very few friends. The newly married couple are among the most popular of our young people, and since their return home have been recipients of congratulations from their many friends. REAL ESTATE AND INSURANCE The Drouth Southern California is pass through an unprecedented season drought. Not for thirty years has the season been characterized by such a normal absence of rain, according to local observation, and reports maintained by the War Department at S. C. Diego show that in fifty years there has not occurred such scant rainfall. To date this season, according to Mr. Dickel's gauge, the precipitation amounted to only .39 of an inch. On Sept. 27th .31 of an inch fell; on Sept. 28th a trace of .04 fell, and on Oct. 1 another trace of .04. Last year to date the rainfall measured 4.63 inches. While rain is badly needed, there is yet time for sufficient to insure a good feed. Southern California was before had dry periods up to and including January, only to be followed by heavy rains in February and March. A heavy downpour of rain within the next few days would tend to improve things on all sides. Tuesday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock an east wind blew up and continued to blow during the night and yesterday. The wind was cold and the day was disagreeable. Saloon Burglary The California saloon, owned by Ben Berdrow, was broken into by thieves on Saturday evening and a quantity of liquors and an amount of small change, aggregating about $15, taken. The thieves effected entrance through the rear door. The same evening boboes attempted to break in the residence of Frank Fox, but were frightened off.
