He participates in the battle of Oppeguan (families known as Sheridan's fight at Winchester.) The confederates under J.Early had driven the union for back, and the forces were in disarray when the solitary horseman galloped down from the north, turned deep into victory. "Probably no commander during war was more greatly loved by troops than Sheridan, and he without doubt the most intrepid dashing of all the cavalry leaders. "The day had gone against us when we heard the cheering we victory was in sight. We could where Sheridan was by the chear He rode along the entire line, tell us we had Early whipped; that Cu was coming with his cavalry and the following day would mark a victory for the union.

Gilman, one of the pioneer residents of Placentia, contemplates leaving shortly for Pasadena, where he owns realty, and where he purposes erecting a residence which he will make his future home. Mr. Gilman has not disposed of his orchard at Placentia but will place a man in charge of it. He settled in Placentia January 1, 1873. He had come down the preceding fall and purchased a ranch. He has since resided here and has prospered along with all other orange and walnut growers of that section. He was recently asked to place a price upon forty acres of his holdings, and fixed the price at $2000 per acre. When he entered on the ranch the Spanish term to all the Placentia country was the Rancho Pures Nada, which, translated into English, means the ranch of pure nothing. Now it it doubtless the richest tract of orchard land in Southern California. Mr. Gilman’s many friends throughout the county will note with regret his approaching departure, but will be reconciled to the fact that he will make frequent visits to his former home in this county.

New Cigar Factory Huyber & Martens have opened a cigar manufactory at No. 118 South Los Angeles street, where they are turning out a superior brand of cigars. These cigars are made of a Porto Rico filler, a binder of Havana seed tobacco and a substitute for a Sumatra wrapper. They are named the North Light, retail at 5 cents and, being made by experienced workmen, are as fine a piece of goods as there is on the market for the money. These cigars find a ready sale in town, as well as in many of the outlying sections. These gentlemen are entitled to a share of the public patronage, for by patronizing home industry money is kept at home and thus prosperity obtains all around. Add to this fact the superiority of their cigars, and an earnest effort to please their customers, and no further evidence is needed to show the popularity of the North Light cigar. Try it and be convinced. A force of graders began some days ago at Los Nietos the work of grading the roadbed for the Huntington electric line which will extend through La Habra valley to Olinda. It was stated in town yesterday that a largely increased force of graders and track-layers will be put on the line this week, and work on the road pushed to early completion. Demand for Small Ranches There has been a very noticeable increase in the demand for small farms the past winter, mainly from city residents. In some sections they have bought nearly all the small ranches on the market, paying good prices for them and generally making the entire investment in cash. Most of the purchases are American born merchants or tradesmen, who have been raised on the farm. They have saved a lot of money and now they naturally back to the land where they know comfortable living rewards how intelligent effort. This class of citizens is a large gain to our community ought to be encouraged by the people of Anaheim. Capt. Bartlett, a famous rifle sniper will be here on Friday and give an exhibition of rifle shooting.

Why THE "S Cherries New Voting Precincts Petitions for new voting precincts from citizens of East Anaheim and Bay City were denied this week by the supervisors, the reason being that registration had progressed so far that complications might ensue if political subdivisions were made, and voters thus become disfranchised. Both precincts will probably be created next year, as the increase in voting strength is such that they are imperatively demanded. East Anaheim precinct will be formed out of West Anaheim precinct—which embraces all territory immediately north, east, south and west of the city of Anaheim. On the east side the limits extend to the river, and voters pass two voting places in town in order to proceed to West Anaheim to vote. It is an injustice to voters to compel them to travel so far in order to vote, and the increased population is so great that the change indicated was petitioned for. That the country about Anaheim is increasing in population is indicated by the fact that 75 voters were taken from West Anaheim precinct two years ago and placed in the newly created Orangethorpe precinct, and yet West Anaheim showed an increase in voters. Bay City precinct will be cut off of Westminster and other contiguous precincts. Both these new political subdivisions will be created next year. This Man Blew Out the Gas A laboring man resident here was employed by a gentleman owning a house at Long Beach to repair thither and put it in order for occupancy during the summer season. He was told to clean up the premises, mow the lawn and do other chores about the place previous to its owner's taking up his abode there during the summer. This Man Blew Out the Gas A laboring man resident here was employed by a gentleman owning a house at Long Beach to repair thither and put it in order for occupancy during the summer season. He was told to clean up the premises, mow the lawn and do other chores about the place previous to its owner's taking up his abode there during the summer. Feeling that he was going to a dry town, he provided himself with a jug of whatever you call the artificial joy and proceeded on his way rejoicing. It seems his habits became libidinous once he scented the salt air from afar, and the services of a physician were necessary to save him from a spell of illness which overtook him. The physician found the man in bad shape on account of the liquor consumed and prescribed for him. On leaving the house the physician said he would return in a few hours and see how his patient was progressing. When the physician had gone the old man arose and went to the gas stove to heat some water. After heating it, he blew out the gas, and returned to the bedroom, where he lay in a stuper. When the physician returned later in the afternoon he had difficulty in restoring the man to consciousness. Only the fact that he was several rooms removed from the escaping gas saved his life. He was brought to this city the following day and is recovering. Company E has received a shipment of new rifles and ammunition, preparatory to the fall maneuvers. Zette.
