ROYAL BAKING POWDER Absolutely Pure The only baking powder made with Royal Grape Cream of Tartar No Alum, No Lime Phosphate Two Crooks in Court Charles Humphreys, alias Roy Carrson, and Charles Patmo, alias Schutz, the two crooks who robbed Sam Lee of $110 in December, appeared in Superior Court at Santa Ana on Monday, when Judge West decided adversely to the claims of their attorney, Clyde Bishop, who sought to procure their discharge from custody upon technicalities. The two crooks will come up for trial the latter part of March on time he has hopes of saving celery for later shipments. This is sending up a fresh stalk in old stalks, and this is being regularly. A spell of wet would spoil the work. About ten days ago Professor Smith from the University of Nia station at Whittier mad through the celery fields for pose of making an investigator the blight. He says that the can be prevented in exactly Two Crooks in Court Charles Humphreys, alias Roy Carson, and Charles Patmo, alias Schutz, the two crooks who robbed Sam Lee of $110 in December, appeared in Superior Court at Santa Ana on Monday, when Judge West decided adversely to the claims of their attorney, Clyde Bishop, who sought to procure their discharge from custody upon technicalities. The two crooks will come up for trial the latter part of March on charges of grand larceny with prior conviction. Each has served sentence in State prison for felony, and each seems good for a long term in the pennitentiary. May Stewart, their female companion, who refused to give her true name, will be tried on a grand larceny charge March 9. Humphreys was sent up from Tulare county for burglary in the second degree. He served 10 months and was commuted out of prison by the governor, for good behavior. Should he be convicted on the present charge he will have to serve a year and two months of his former term. If convicted on a felony charge with prior conviction, the limit penalty is life imprisonment. Patino served a term of two years for burglary in the second degree, being sent up from Los Angeles. Both men have admitted prior convictions, and Patino, as well as Humphreys, has a limit of life sentence staring him in the face. The minimum penalty is ten years. Officers have not yet been able to learn the identity of the woman, who claims Los Angeles as her home. Detectives from that city have been unable to identify her, and it is believed she is from the northern part of the state. She is 21 years of age, and while the officers believe she has a record, they have not as yet been able to locate her. San Francisco, Reno and Salt Lake officers have been forwarded photographs of her in the effort to discover her identity. Better Prices for Celery Celery men expect good prices next year, and to obtain them they expect to do two things—reduce the acreage by half and do spraying, that the product may not suffer from blight. Better Prices for Celery Celery men expect good prices next year, and to obtain them they expect to do two things—reduce the acreage by half and do spraying, that the product may not suffer from blight. “There is only one thing that may arise that will make the acreage of celery next year over half of what it was this year,” said G. W. Moore, manager of the celery growers’ association, “and that is the failure of the many lowland ranchers who plant beets to get a good stand of that crop. Otherwise I do not expect to see more than half as much land in celery next year as there was this year.” Mr. Moore and other leading celery men are confident that the solution of the blight problem is spraying. Blight destroyed the tomato crop in the northern end of the county this year, but it will never do so again, for the reason that the ranchers who plant tomatoes will be prepared to follow the directions of the state agricultural station at Whittier. It has been proven to them that the spray will prevent the spread of the blight. A similar conviction has come to the celery men. About the first of January the Golden West company of Smeltzer began the use of the spray and though it was not fully equipped to do the work properly the effect was striking. The celery blight was stopped and the Golden West celery arrived in the east in far better condition that any other celery shipped. Three weeks ago C. F. Heil commenced spraying and at the present Killed on the Desert William Meyers, a barber, aged about 60 years, who had been a resident of this city for two months past, was run over and killed by the cars near Daggett on Thursday afternoon last. Meyers had been employed in Frank Fox's barber shop, and left here on Tuesday of last week to go to Callente, Nev., where he said he could get a job as barber at better wages than he could earn here. The following dispatch in the daily papers brought the first intimation of the accident: "DAGGETT, Feb. 20.—An unknown man was killed by Santa Fe east-bound overland No. 8 this afternoon, two miles west of here. The accident occurred on a sharp curve, the engine crew not discovering the man until the body was hurled from the track. It is presumed that he was intoxicated and lay down on the roadbed to sleep. The odor of whisky was about the remains, and in a pocket a flask of whisky was found. A grip containing $36.76 was also found, together with barber tools and other personal property. He had two letters addressed to U. W. Hall and J. E. Fisher, both of Anaheim. He was a passenger on a Santa Fe train going east, and it is supposed that, while drunk, he left the train at Daggett and walked along the track until wearied, when he fell, stupened from liquor." Deceased is highly spoken of by those who knew him during his residence here, and it is said he was not a drinking man. His friends refuse to believe he was so helplessly drunk that he fell asleep upon the track. He was hard of hearing, and, they maintain, he was probably walking along the track when he was run over and killed. Fisher and Hall are residents of this city.

The salary per month, with 10 per cent from old subscribers each Celery and Sugar Beets The Orange County Celery Growers' Association on Saturday received $105,-000 as proceeds of the January celery pool. This is being distributed among the association members on a basis of fifteen cents a dozen for No. 1 celery, fourteen cents a dozen for No. 2 and nine cents for No. 3. The December pool, amounting to $103,000 netted 13.9 cents for No. 1 and 9 cents for No. 2, while from the Nov-ember pool, amounting to $49,000, the growers received 11.05 cents for No. 1 and 8 cents for No. 2. The total shipments to February 1 were 1692 carloads, 180 less than for the same period last year. For the whole season the shipments will fall about 1000 carloads less than last year. The February pool was closed at the middle of the month and since that date the celery sent east has been forwarded by individual growers under an arrangement with the California Vegetable Union whereby that corporation assumes the cost of freight, refrigeration, cost of crates and expense of cutting, the sum total of all of these items to be deducted from the returns from the shipments. This year the blight has done more damage than ever before, and the coming season in consequence will see a much smaller area devoted to the celery crop, as while the blight may not again fall so heavily, many farmers will not care to have their eggs all in one basket and will therefore grow beets on much land that heretofore has been planted to celery. W. T. Newland, one of the best known ranchers in the Huntington Beach district, says there will be a material restriction in the celery acreage the coming Stockholders' M Notice is hereby given to thaof the First National Bank of Athat the annual meeting of saiwill be held at the bank buildner of Center and Los Angeles city of Anaheim, on Tuesday, March 10 at 3 o'clock, p.m., for the purpoboard of directors to serve duriyear, and for transacting such as may come before the meeting feb6 5f Republican Convention The Republican State is to select delegates to Chriheld in Sacramento, MaCongressional conventions are there at the same time.
