Through the streets where deceased had in his lifetime been a familiar figure, where friends greeted him upon every side, the funeral cortege wended its way. At the cemetery the remains were consigned to their last resting place. Rev. Reiser again spoke impressively and the Anaheim Gesangverein rendered a vocal selection. Peter Weisel, Esq., came to Anaheim from Milwaukee some fifteen years ago. He was a man of large wealth and erected a commodious residence in the West End. Later he sold this property and erected a large two-story residence in town. He visited Germany once a year, and it was on one of these excursions that he ended his earthly career. He left on his last voyage in January. Some weeks ago news came that he had suffered a stroke of paralysis in the town of Bonn, on the Rhine, some twenty miles from the city of Cologne. Later news came that he had recovered. Since the return of the family it is learned that deceased had been unable to leave his room at Bonn for many weeks. He passed away peacefully April 25th, in his seventieth year. Immediately upon receipt of the sad intelligence his son Peter J. Weisel proceeded to New York, where he met his mother and sister returning with enfeebled condition was withstand the shock of the knife.

Hubbard, the well-known capitalist of that city, are in town for the purpose of organizing a new telephone company in this city, Fullerton, Placentia and all contiguous points. The company will be known as the Valley Home Telephone company, and it is aimed to secure 500 subscribers to start with. Petitions for signatures are in circulation at various points and have been numerously signed. In this city and Fullerton every business man approached has signed; with but very few exceptions. In the outlying district every orchardist approached is enthusiastic over the organization of the new system. There will be no switching charge between this city and Fullerton, nor between any outlying points. The Sunset now imposes a toll of ten cents per message between this city and Fullerton, while giving the latter place free service to La Habra, Yorba and other distant points. Fullerton people may talk with these latter places eight miles off without additional tolls, while if they wish to talk to this city, two and a half miles away, an impost of 10 cents per message is charged.

On several occasions the business men of Fullerton and Anaheim, as well as the Placentia orchardists, have petitioned to have this unjust toll removed, but the company, while making the petitioners all kinds of promises, gave them the double cross in the end, and the prohibitive charge prevails to this day. It probably always will prevail. It is this one thing, as much as the company's wofully inferior service, which has caused the new company to catch on, so to speak, with such spontaneity here. Everybody wants a new phone, and the chances are they will be provided with one before long. The new system will be the latest improved Harmonic system, and $100,-000C will be expended in its construction. Our business men and citizens generally should subscribe for a new phone in the Valley Home company. The company means much for the development of this entire valley. It will bring new people and money here. That is what is desired. Subscribe for a new phone. Kindergarten In Schools Considerable interest attaches to the suggestion that the school trustees include a kindergarten course in the public schools. The plan has been followed with success by such towns as Riverside, Santa Ana, Long Beach and other progressive communities, and is doubtless worthy of investigation here. The public schools of this state assume responsibility for the child's education at the age of six years, but the question has been asked if it would not be better to begin to educate the child when he needs education? The kindergarten, established by the great German educator, Froebel, is the nearest approach to the perfect beginning of education that has been found. Take a restless little child between the ages of four and six, give his aimless little hands something useful to do and his restless little mind some- cussed with a relish, and social conversation sway.

The kindergarten, established by the great German educator, Froebel, is the nearest approach to the perfect beginning of education that has been found. Take a restless little child between the ages of four and six, give his aimless little hands something useful to do and his restless little mind something good and fruitful to think of. Teach him by means of games, stories and songs of heroism, honesty, obedience, unselfishness—of the value of time, of self-reliance—in fact, by precept and example so instill these lessons into his mind in this most plastic stage of development, that through life the image remains. Also train him to observe with accuracy a habit that will prove of inestimable value to him later. Manual training is one of the essential parts of this training; by it the active instincts of childhood are cultivated. And the faculty of observation specially cultivated. The child is taught to count, to tell the days of the week, colors, etc. Also something about trades, as carpentering, blacksmithing, sewing, drawing and painting. In fact, while the child has not been taught anything that he learns at school, he will be found to have acquired habits of neatness, industry and observation. And by working and experimenting the mind has been developed. He has learned how to learn. He is taught discipline, being led to do right as much as possible for right's sake: "The kindergarten aims in no way at making infant prodigees; but it aims successfully at putting the little child in possession of every faculty he spoke feelingly of the Geo.

Guardsman Injured Joe Barter of Clair, a private belonging to Company E, was run into by an electric car while walking home on Sunday night about 11 o'clock. He was seriously though not fatally injured. Barter returned that afternoon with the company from the north, after three weeks service with the regiment, and as he approached his home narrowly escaped death by the accident. He was walking in the center of the track and evidently did not hear the warnings of the oncoming car. He was rendered unconscious by the force of the blow, being pitched forward for a considerable distance, his face scraping upon the ground. His left arm was broken in two places, and he received internal injuries which are thought to be serious, though not necessarily fatal.

He was taken to Santa Ana by the car which returned immediately to that city after the accident. He remained unconscious much of the following day, but was yesterday reported recovering. Barter has the sympathy of his company associates. After a strenuous three weeks of duty with his regiment he had walked five miles toward his home, and when within a short distance of his abode was run down by the electric car and narrowly escaped death. Definquent Taxes The county tax collector has received a communication from State Controller Colgan, advising him that the holidays do not prevent the performance of contracts and duties, where a voluntary desire is expressed to so perform them, and that public officials are not arrested in their duties, but may perform them as though a holiday did not exist. As the time for the appearance of the delinquent tax list is near at hand, Mr. Colgan suggests that tax collectors get it ready as usual. He advises that delinquent taxpayers be allowed to make their payments if they so desire. This communication is interpreted to mean that the tax collector can waive the 5 per cent penalty on taxes paid before next Monday, when the rolls are turned over to the county auditor, to be declared delinquent. This move is contrary to the opinion rendered by District Attorney Head, who held that taxes would not become delinquent until the holidays were declared at an end. Birthday Party Mrs. Speer entertained at her home on Tuesday evening, the occasion being her daughter's birthday anniversary. The evening was delightfully passed with games and social conversation.

Stern states the regiment did serious service and was highly well by the governor and other high officials north. New Townsite Thousand acres of land have been used by a club of 130 families in around Northam. The property has subdivided into 10 and 20-acre plots.
