Death of Mrs. B. V. Beebe Seldom has this city been moved to such inexpressible depths of sadness as characterized the death of Mrs. Bird V. Beebe on Monday afternoon at 5:30 o'clock. During her illness of less than a week, following childbirth, the sorrow which hovered near was testified to in the many anxious inquiries concerning her condition, and when the final summons came it was as if a personal loss had been sustained by all. Not in years had such poignant sorrow cast a gloom over the community. The young mother offered up her life as a sacrifice to the birth of her child. The cause of death was septicaemia, which attacked the patient on Thursday last. Dr. Johnson was called, and Dr. Moore of Los Angeles, a specialist in such cases, was summoned. The latter held out very little hope of recovery. Dr. Johnson remained with the patient incessantly until the hour of her death. At the bedside when the summons came were her husband, her mother, Mrs. Witte; her sister, Miss Hulda Witte, and other members of the family. Mrs. Beebe was a native of East St. Louis, and came here with her parents the 80's. She had resided here since that time. She was a popular member of society and held membership in Anaheim, Cal., Feb. Regular meeting of the Directors of the A. U. W. Co. on the above date with all present except L. P. Drake.

Mrs. Beebe was a native of East St. Louis, and came here with her parents the 80's. She had resided here since that time. She was a popular member of society and held membership in the Eastern Star, Rebekka and Fraternal Brotherhood lodges; as well as ladies' social clubs. Besides her husband, she leaves a babe born two weeks ago, and a son by a former marriage, Earl Crist. The funeral will occur Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock under the auspices of the Rebekkas. Members of the family here to attend the funeral are Mrs. Witte and Miss Hulda Witte of Los Angeles, mother and sister of deceased; Mr. and Mrs. Peid of Pasadena and Mr. and Mrs. Butterworth of Los Angeles. Mr. and Mrs. Horace Green were telegraphed at Victoria, B. C., but owing to the distance will be unable to attend. Mrs. Beebe carried an insurance policy of $3000 in the Fraternal Brotherhood. Having been a member of that order for less than two years, the sum accruing to the beneficiaries is reduced one half. Members of the Fraternal Brotherhood are requested to meet at Odd Fellows hall on Tuesday afternoon at 1.30 o'clock to attend the funeral of Mrs. B. V. Beebe. Walnuts Bring Profit The annual report of the secretary of the Santa Ana Valley Walnut Growers' Association, shows that for the season of 1907 the association distributed about $140,000 to its growers.

The actual cost of operation, including final payments on the machinery, this year was 73 cents per 100 pounds, which was 19 cents less than the net cost per 100 pounds last year. The association is clear of all indebtedness and has a license from the Anderson Barngrover Manufacturing Company to use the patient incessantly until the hour of her death.

On Friday evening the library board met and among other business considered was an offer made by the chamber of commerce for the employment of Miss Adams as manager of its exhibit room. This was after due consideration agreed to, and Miss Adams will assume her new duties on the first. The exhibit room will be rearranged and new exhibits added. The chamber solicits products of the soil for exhibition purposes and these will be gladly accepted. Such articles are needed, if the display is to be made a success. Savings Bank's Good Showing Cashier Phelps of the American Savings Bank said on Monday that the bank was the only one in Southern California, so far as he knew, which did not require the usual six-months notice from depositors seeking to withdraw their accounts during the recent flurry. All the savings banks in Los Angeles imposed this rule, which is general the world over. The American Savings Bank was an exception to the rule and paid depositors as they called for their money. Less than $5000 was called for, and this has more than returned since the panic. This bank pays four per cent on term deposits, and three per cent on ordinary deposits and special ordinary accounts.
