The electric lights being off on account of the moonlight, the usual street concert was omitted and the band assembled at the postoffice, where a large crowd gathered to hear the music. A misapprehension that the concert was in the nature of a serenade to Postmaster Duckworth, who had just assumed the duties of the office, and was inside checking up government property with his predecessor, Mr. Littlefield, was the cause of a bit of excitement on the part of at least one individual, but matters quieted down somewhat when Leader Crowther had declared himself, and the band played on. S. O. Walker was in town this week from Buena Park. He has given much attention of late to the real estate business, at which he has been eminently successful.

Duckworth assumed his duties as postmaster on Saturday, succeeding Sheldon Littlefield, term expired. The contest for the office has been spirited for several months past, but Duckworth won out by having the stronger endorsements at home and abroad, as well as having the warm personal friendship of Senator Flint and Congressman Smith. He had the county committee's endorsement, as well as other supporters. Under these conditions Mr. Littlefield, who had also a very strong support, had to succumb to his first political defeat. Mr. Duckworth will have as his assistant, Robert Johnston, brother of Dr. Johnston, and Mrs. Austin Watson will also be in the office until matters get to running smoothly. That the new appointee will render efficient service admits of no doubt. Mat Everhardy is building a residence in Los Angeles, pictures of which were printed in Sunday's papers, showing it to be one of the handsomest in the town: Mat a year or two ago purchased a piece of property on Main street for $32,000, and after holding it fourteen months sold it for $72,000. He later erected a four-story building near the site just selected for a union railroad depot, using the lower floor as a cold-storage for meats, supplying his Spring street market. The fact that the new union depot is to be located across the street advanced his holding $20,000 in value. If Mat doesn't look out he will soon have more money than the old man.

Respectfully, German-American Bank Two Inches of Rain Two and nine-hundredths inches of rain fell during the week, bringing the season's total up to 12.83 inches as against 12.96 to date last year. The precipitation began on Sunday, the day being for the most part showery. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon rain began falling heavily, continuing until late at night. The fall for the day and night amounted to 1.38 inches. On Monday .36 of an inch fell, and on Monday night .35 additional, making the total for the storm 2.09 inches, and for the season 12.83. The storm did probably more good than any of its predecessors this season for the hot, dry weather of the previous week, which was due to the prevalence of Santa Ana winds in the upper valley, had left an unfavorable impression. Although no damage was done to growing crops by the hot spell, yet rain was needed to revive pasture and crops. Probably never in the history of the county has Orange county presented a scene of greater natural beauty. With the snow peaks of the Coast range hooded with snow, and foothill and valley contrasting with them in their carpets of emerald, the river running bank full of water and small cataracts bounding down the mountain canyons, the scene is one of picturesque grandeur that is altogether unrivaled. Meantime farmers are jubilant, and crops of all kinds promise record-breaking yields. City Election Only four days remain in which candidates for city office may file their petitions in conformity with law. The past week several new candidates for trustee have been brought out viz. City Election Only four days remain in which candidates for city office may file their petitions in conformity with law.

Steadman, who has held the position fourteen years, and Harry Spielman. John Brunworth declines to stand for the office, and Mike Litten has dropped out on account of ineligibility. Clerk Merritt has so far no one to oppose his re-election. Joseph Helmsen and John Hartung, representing the two commercial banks, are out for city treasurer, and a spirited contest is looked for.
