AMENDED ARTICLES The Southern Pacific Railroad Company of California, the Southern Pacific railroad company of Arizona, and the Southern Pacific company of New Mexico, have filed amended articles of incorporation and consolidation with the County Clerk. Primarily they merge the lines of the three corporations under one board of directors headed by E. H. Harriman. The most important amendments relate to the company's harbor terminals at San Pedro and to a proposed new line to San Diego. The latter is suggested in clause 11 of the articles descriptive of the company's system, which reads as follows: "Commencing at or near Los Angeles in the county of Los Angeles, and running thence southeasterly to Anaheim and Santa Ana, in the county of Orange, and thence southeasterly through the counties of Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego, to a point at or near San Diego, a distance of 140 miles." Judge H. C. Gooding of Los Ames warmly welcomed the veterans town, speaking as a representative of the Huntington Beach company as president was unable to take place on the program. The re- was made by Judge Langley of Ana who paid compliments to Huntington Beach, Southern California, the women of the Relief Corps and ladies of the G.A.R., but the speeches were most enthusiastic received when he referred to Pre Roosevelt. "I know that there is not a co here," he said, "who is not glad he volunteered for that mem struggle that made possible a co like ours, where the people truern, where one government over a vast territory that is un commerce and sentiment. A co whose president can grapple with overcome a grizzly, explore fear the bottom of the sea, throttle ion dollar trust, or hold out his between warring nations and peace to them." Mrs. Mary E. Dunning pre- the new camp register to the action on behalf of the Auxiliary Southern California Veteran Association. Mrs. Dunning also spoke singly of Mrs. Amanda Palmer, death occurred last spring, and honor it would have been to president of the Auxiliary at the campment. Mrs. Dunning was able to fill the vacancy caused by Palmer's death. A touch of so also was brought to the hearts comrades when E. C. Seymour, commander of the Department of California and Nevada of the G., paid a tribute to Capt. Albert F. Our Newest Battleship The new American battleship mont was launched at Quincy, last week in the presence of a number of invited guests and sentatives of the government. Bell of Vermont, accompanied by Bell, Miss Jennie Bell and her y-sister, the members of the gov't staff, and many prominent citizens the sponsor state, were in attend Miss Jennie Bell stood as spons christened the new battleship breaking a bottle of champagne the bow when the big hulk sm slid from the ways. The Vermont is a sister ship The latter is suggested in clause 11 of the articles descriptive of the company's system, which reads as follows: "Commencing at or near Los Angeles in the county of Los Angeles, and running thence southeasterly to Anaheim and Santa Ana, in the county of Orange, and thence southeasterly through the counties of Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego, to a point at or near San Diego, a distance of 140 miles, more or less." The filing of this clause is the first step towards building the line described and leaves the company free to take up with the counties named the question of granting franchises. When the railroad will follow up the action already taken is the question of paramount interest here since the evident intention is to reach San Diego harbor. While the Southern Pacific is plainly aiming at San Diego harbor the articles filed also indicate that the company intends to tighten its hold on San Pedro harbor. Clause 13, in the descriptive articles describes the Southern Pacific line from Los Angeles to Wilmington and thence to San Pedro on the west side of Wilmington Bay and San Pedro harbor. In the new articles this clause is amended to provide for a branch line from Wilmington across an arm of Wilmington Bay to the east shore and thence along the east shore of the bay and harbor to Terminal Island and East San Pedro. At present the only railroad rights on the east shore are held by the San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake railroad. On August 16, Terminal Island and East San Pedro voted to be annexed to Long Beach and the chief argument in favor of that annexation was that it would prevent the sentatives of the government, Bell of Vermont, accompanied by Bell, Miss Jennie Bell and her sister, the members of the government staff, and many prominent citizens the sponsor state, were in attendance. Miss Jennie Bell stood as sponsor christened the new battleship breaking a bottle of champagne the bow when the big hulk smiled slid from the ways. The Vermont is a sister ship to New Hampshire, the Minnesota Louisiana, the Connecticut and Kansas, which was recently lauched. The ship is designed as a flagship will be one of the finest warships. The arrangement of quarters provides accommodations for the fighting complement: A flag officer chief of staff, nineteen wardrobe officers, ten junior officers, ten wives officers and not less than 761 men including 60 marines. There is a bridge, both forward and after flying bridge forward, according latest designs. On the flying bridge fitted a screen of bronze for protection of the men at the wheel there is also a bronze charthouse ward. The legislature of Vermont appropriated $5000 for a silver service be presented to the battleship and future time. The total cost of the shipship, exclusive of the arm will be about $4,212,000, while the cost will be over $7,500,000. J. A.

In imposing sentence the Judge informed Zemrau the maximum penalty which could be imposed was a fine of $1000 and six months' imprisonment, or both such fine and imprisonment. He would not, the Court continued, impose a monetary fine, as that wold probably be taking it from defendat's six small children. However, he court added, it seemed to him defendant's children would be better off without this father than they had ten with him. Zemrau leaned forward and asked the interpreter to say this again, he appearing to be in doubt at first as to the precise nature of the cort's lash. His head sank low in humiliation. The judge said he had gen the matter much careful thought and finally imposed a sentence of six months in the county jail.

He had gone on a camping trip with Mr. and Mrs. Jos. Tayles of Placentia, Mrs. Tayles' sister and others. On Friday evening, August 25th, at 9 o'clock Hetebrink was taken with an epileptic fit. Tayles remained with the stricken young man, while his wife and her sister went down the canyon to the house of the zanjero of the Santa Ana water company. A mile from the camp they came upon the camp of two gentlemen, to whom they recited the story of the occurrence further up the river. One of the gentlemen returned to camp with the ladies, the other set out for the telephone station. He later returned to camp, four miles distant, saying Dr. Scott was on the way, but did not know the road.

While Val Brown was out hunting on Sunday evening at dusk, a mile and a half west of here, he came upon a bunch of six wildcats, two were grown and the four others were young ones. The cats were huddled together in a clearing in the brush near the railroad track, and were playing, as cats will, when Val hove in sight. The two old ones made a leap of ten feet to taller brush while Val got his gun a-working on the rest, killing two. Before he could reload the others got under cover of the brush and bunch of huge boulders, which is evidently their den. The two killed weighed about twenty pounds apiece. A couple of years ago Brown and a party were hunting rabbits near the Emery ranch when they came upon two wildcats crouched down a few feet apart with a jack rabbit sitting motionless between them. The varmints and rabbit were evidently "charmed," for neither of them moved on the approach of the hunters. The two cats were shot, while one of the other hunters hit the rabbit with the gun barrel, putting it out of commission. Val vouches for the veracity of this and says he can prove it. Rev.

California’s Opportunity New York Fruitman’s Guide: Reports have reached this side to the effect that the Spanish orange crop, which is the main source of supply for the markets of the United Kingdom, is liable to be very short. The hard winter frosts which spoiled the crop in Spain last season so completely, were the hardest ever known, and not only did injury at the time, but have evidently left an aftermath of trouble for the growers. It would seem that great numbers of the trees have had to be pruned on account of winter-killing in most drastic fashion, as much as one-half in some cases, while in others practically all of the tree has had to come away. Even in those sections that were not so badly touched, comparatively speaking, the branches have had to be subjected to a thorough pruning. As a result, the crop will be greatly reduced, and it looks as though California would have a good chance to fill the resulting gap in the orange supplies of the United Kingdom. The English Baptists will hold service at the German Baptist church; Sunday school at 2 p.m. Rev. White of Fullerton will preach next Sunday at 3 p.m.
