Anaheim, Cal., June 17, 1905 Berlin Short In Accounts Assessor Vegely was in this section on professional visits during the past week and as a result of investigations into the accounts of Deputy Assessor Jake Berlin of Fullerton dismissed that official from service, owing to a shortage in his accounts. Berlin's work will be continued by Deputy Assessor Dutton of this city. It is learned that Berlin has refused to make proper returns to his superior officer concerning work in the Fullerton and Placentia districts, and is said some days ago to have forwarded worthless checks on Fullerton banks in payment of his accounts. When Vegely discovered the worthlessness of the paper he sought for Berlin and on the latter's inability to square his accounts was promptly dismissed from service. The amount of Berlin's shortage amounts to several hundred dollars. Berlin has always born a good reputation. He was some time ago suggested as a compromise candidate for the Fullerton postoffice, during the fight for that office on the part of several applicants. He has lived at Fullerton for a number of years and has many staunch friends who regret his indiscretion. Remember milk is only 5c. per quart at the Ross Bros.' Dairy. The versatile Mike M.

ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, JUNE 22, 1905 Buena Park Mrs. George Wilcox were surprise party by a number of friends at their home on Saturdays. The occasion was the anniversary of their wedding evening was enjoyed. It has been taken off of the time at the creamery, the boeing 9 hours instead of 10. The citizens of the Park are bitterly of the wretched roads in this district, the Orangethorpe and Ceneways. These roads were very fair condition. It is residents that the roads have been left as they were, exception of filling up a few miles. But instead of that the trees have been plowed up, soft, dusty soil is where the road used to be. There is no need for the roads getting a coat of farmers have hard work through with their loaded farmer's team recentlyandy stretch and were unaware of the load—upon any other team could have gone right by it. Why were the roads not a question being asked by a villager who sustained injuries by being attacked by a vicious dog? Chamber of Commerce The directors of the chamber of commerce met in regular session on Thursday evening. Present, Messrs. Ahlborn, Michod, Adams, Wallop, Miller. The Santa Ana chamber wrote asking for several views of prominent places to be sent to the Portland fair. Referred to committee. The directors discussed the pathological station. The time is drawing near for the selection of a site. It was decided to send Mr. Neff to Berkeley to lay our claims for the station before the commission. A letter has been prepared by the chamber furnishing data pertaining to our section and the same has been forwarded to the commissioners. It was also decided to collect 25 per cent of the money subscribed for the purchase of the site. The laboratory situation is most delightful and the way matters have shaped up it looks as though Anaheim would capture the coveted prize. The new keeper of the exhibit room advertised for has not as yet materialized, but two applications for the position are being considered. It is probable a selection will be made at the next meeting. Chairman Nickey of the Santa Ana chamber graciously offered us a number of jars of fruit. Thanks. Thomas Eccles of Fall River, Mass., wrote for information concerning our city. He wants to locate out this way. Santiago, or the Red and Blue Tomorrow evening, at Armour citizens will have an open witnessing a war drama by talent, which has already been in Santa Ana, and the young gentlemen composing still live to tell the story.

One of the boys is a bookkeeper, another a bricklayer. He has two daughters, one aged 20, the other 25, who want to come too. They are single. Must have heard about our young bachelors. Secretary Michod was instructed to write the family in his most happy vein, bidding them welcome. Bill of L. E. Miller for $10 for jars was ordered paid. The disposition of the municipal electric light plant on a lease to the Edison company was discussed informally. No action however was taken in the matter. Adjourned. National Game The ball game on Sunday between the Young Americans of this city and a team from Olive was a top-heavy affair, the score being 12 to 7 in favor of the former. The game was an easy one for the locals, Teddy Dickel's curves proving too mysterious for the Olive-ites. Billy Fischer did the receiving and his brother Chily was there with his foxy base running. All the other local lads put up a pretty good game. Guy Meats did the twirling for the visitors. The Olive boys were outclassed and were handed a beautiful bunch of horsecollars. Manager Tousch of the Y.A.'s is thinking of challenging a Los Angeles team and would like to take a fall out of Tom Young's ball tossers one of these days. Eh, Tom?

Growing Black Walnut For years Luther Burbuck experimenting with walnut the view of developing and the commercial value of the bara softshell, and a much of profitable culture tree's peculiar habit makes it most interesting entists to deal with, as trees in the problem not in other vegetation. Some years ago Mr. Buck a tree which was understory isfactory to himself, and been largely planted from cisco to the Columbia course of these experiments to have produced two varieties of saving and naming, while eloped a remarkable faculty using wood. We do not that the nut is considered valuable, but the trees named Paradox, a cross Persian and the native Cinnat have attained a cirrhose height of six feet fourteen years. Black walnut has commenced the most valuable lumbered in this country. A qu "Rich Rubber Lands" San Francisco, June 16 — The steamer Newport brought home from Mexico today a score of victims of the Pan-American Land and Improvement Company, who purchased experience in a colonization scheme at the cost of money and time. This company, which has main offices in Kansas City, got up a lottery for lands at Salinas Cruz, Mexico. This seaport was near the terminus of the projected branch of the Pan-American Railway. Buyers of lottery tickets had a chance to draw town lots in the city or acre property nearby. The twenty who returned today drew prizes, and then found they had to pay an additional amount to secure deeds. Armed with these, they started for Salinas Cruz. Then they traveled overland to the terminus of the road, which was described as a "flourishing city." They found it a collection of squalid huts, peopled by lazy natives, and the "rich rubber land," for which they held deeds, was a swamp, covered with water at high tide.

In planting the catappa posts a harvest every fifth estimated to pay about 3p investment. A walnut tree produce a good quality thirty years should pay more than that.

Ralph Sutton alton, in love with Spanish Death of Mr. McWilliams H. A. McWilliams died at his home on Broadway on Tuesday evening at 6:35 o'clock, after a lingering illness due to tuberculosis. He had been unconscious since the preceding Saturday evening, and had taken no nourishment during that time. His right side was partially paralyzed, and for several days preceding his lapse into unconsciousness talked incoherently to those about him. He passed away peacefully, surrounded by the members of his family and brethren of the Odd Fellows' lodge who had been constanly with him during his last illness. Mr. McWilliams was down town for the last time on Saturday afternoon a week ago, when he inspected the work upon the new Odd Fellows' hall, in which, apart from his official capacity as inspector, he took a deep interest. He took to his bed that evening and the following day was seized with brain fever. The end was only a question of a few days. Last fall he was induced to go to Arizona in an effort to recuperate his failing health. He spent several months at Phoenix, but returned to his home here feebler than before. He rarely left the house, his only visits down town being to inspect the work upon the new lodge building. Mr. McWilliams was a native of Ohio and was aged 52 years.

Wiring Black Walnut Lumber years Luther Burbank has been planting with walnut trees with a few of developing a nut with all commercial value of the Santa Barsoftshell, and a much wider range fruitable culture. The walnut has peculiar habit of blossoming it a most interesting tree for science to deal with, as there are factors the problem not usually found in vegetation. The years ago Mr. Burbank fruited which was understood to be sattery to himself, and which has largely planted from San Franto the Columbia river. In the summer of these experiments he seems to produce two varieties worthy singing and naming, which have deverbed a remarkable faculty of accumging wood. We do not understand the nut is considered as especially stable, but the trees of the variety Paradox, a cross between the man and the native California walhave attained a circumference at height of six feet in less than ten years. Black walnut has come to be by far most valuable lumber tree producthis country. A quarter of a cention of a few days. Last fall he was induced to go to Arizona in an effort to recuperate his failing health. He spent several months at Phoenix, but returned to his home here feebler than before. He rarely left the house, his only visits down town being to inspect the work upon the new lodge building. Mr. McWilliams was a native of Ohio and was aged 52 years. He resided here for seventeen years, and was held in the highest respect by all who knew him. He leaves a wife and two daughters to mourn his loss. The funeral will take place from the residence this (Thursday) afternoon at 2 o'clock under the auspices of the Odd Fellows' lodge. Corner Stone Imposing exercises will attend the laying of the corner stone of the Odd Fellows' hall on Sunday morning. Past Grand Master Geo. Stockwell of Los Angeles will preside, in the absence of Grand Master Phelps of Riverside, who finds himself unable to be present. The lodge will assemble at 9:30, and will march to the site of the new buildi­ng at 10, at which hour the cor­nerstone will be laid. The program is as follows: Parade at 10 a.m.; start from I. O. O. F. hall. Music by Anaheim band for parade. Prayer at building by Rev. W. A. Knighten. Remarks by chairman, F. C. Spencer. Laying of corner-stone by P. G. M. Geo. W. Stockwell.

Commencement The high school class of 1905 will have commencement exercises at Arm- A remarkable faculty of accumulated wood. We do not understand the nut is considered as especially valuable, but the trees of the variety Paradox, a cross between the American and the native California walnut have attained a circumference at least height of six feet in less than ten years. The walnut has come to be by far most valuable lumber tree produce this country. A quarter of a centage it was abundant at $25 to $30 a hundred feet in the Chicago market. It has become so scarce that the timber is prohibitory for solid work in furniture, and it is used, at all, mainly in veneers, like sorted tropical woods. A walnut which will grow as rapidly as in Mr. Burbank's yard, and maintain growth under conditions of a dry forest so as to be free from knots or reasonable height, and whose quality has the quality of the eastern walnut—or qualities satisfactory should doubtless be a very remunerative crop for those who can afford to pay 25 or 30 years for a harvest time. By planting the catalpa for fence in a harvest every fifteen years is expected to pay about 3 per cent on the investment. A walnut tree which will produce a good quality of lumber in many years should pay a great deal more than that. Of course nobody knows what sort of lumber the Paradox nut will produce, or whether, even if fence posts, it will last in the wood like the eastern walnut. All these things have to be found out, but Mr. Burbank has developed or can develop a tree which in this state will produce first-class cabinet lumber he indeed have filled "a long felt trust." Commencement The high school class of 1905 will have commencement exercises at Armory hall on Friday, June 30th. The class roll is as follows: Dora Click, Mary Watson, Harry Barter, J. Leslie Swope, Elsa Alma Christen, Mary Rosina Rodger, Walter Frick Mickle, Hazel Lorena Michod, Elsie Purl Nebelung, Leonard Arthur Evans, Clara Maude Fischer, James Franklin Nelson, Ernest Dwight Clabaugh, David William Christen, Florence Elsie Clabaugh, Edward Boardman Merritt, Harold Francis Pellegrin, Percival Loring Bradford, Herman William Christenson.
