Dr. Wickett's address accepting the drinking fountain presented the city by the W.C.T.U. was neatly phrased and to the point. Water was the foundation of the city's prosperity, and what more natural than that the traveler within our gates should find an abundant supply of sparkling draughts at a public drinking fountain? Accepting the fountain in the name of the city, the speaker said: Officers and Members of the Women's Christian Temperance Union, Ladies and Gentlemen:—I have been commissioned by Mayor Rust to accept in the name of the citizens of Anaheim, this beautiful drinking fountain, and I assure you that I am expressing the sentiments of everyone when I tender you our most grateful thanks. Nothing could be more commendable than the endeavor to do good to our fellow beings, and I take it that, in providing a drinking fountain for this community, the Women's Christian Temperance Union has done us a lasting service and a great good. I cannot think of anything of greater value to Southern California than water. In this respect we are more than highly favored by nature, for chemical analysis reveals the fact that our city water is of the purest variety to be found. And we have an abundance of it, too; plenty for the thirsty soil, plenty for the thirsty animal, and plenty for the thirsty man. And everywhere gladdened scape and eye; I have made the parched grow fertile with grain; I can tell of the powerful mill That ground out the flour ed at my will; I can tell of manhood debase That I have uplifted and anew. I cheer, I help, I streng aid, I gladden the heart of maid. I set your chained wine-cap And all are made better by me. These are the things they each other: The glass of wine and brother. And now, with the water flow Through the veins of the new king, Christened with the prayer Women And the songs your child Be true, oh City Fathers!

I cannot think of anything of greater value to Southern California than water. In this respect we are more than highly favored by nature, for chemical analysis reveals the fact that our city water is of the purest variety to be found. And we have an abundance of it, too; plenty for the thirsty soil, plenty for the thirsty animal, and plenty for the thirsty man. The tourist or home-seeker, on entering our city by the eastern gates sees a large sign, having printed upon it, among other things, the words, "Abundance of Water." The tourist or home-seeker entering our city by its southern gates, not only sees a similar sign, but also sees our magnificent municipal pumping plant, and our large concrete reservoir. Impressed as he is with the fact that Anaheim has abundance of water what could be more fitting, when he reaches the center of our city, than to find here this beautiful fountain, where he is welcome to partake of our hospitality, and prove for himself that we have what we claim. Now, this gift has not been donated especially for the tourist or home-seeker, or as an advertisement of our hospitality, or resources, but that it might be used by us citizens, and that, in the years to come, we may come here and drink a cup of cool sparkling water, and remember, as did the ancients, its significance as a token of purity, good cheer and good fellowship. And now, to you members of the Women's Christian Temperance Union, who have so generously donated this fountain which will stand as a lasting memorial of your untiring devotion to the cause you so nobly represent, let me again thank you in the name of the mayor, the city trustees and the citizens of Anaheim. During the exercises Rev. Mitchell read the following poem, by Ella Wheeler Wilcox, entitled, "The Two Glasses:" There stood two glasses, filled to the brim, On a well-spread table, rim to rim; One was ruddy and red as blood, And one was clear as the crystal flood. Said the glass of wine to his paler brother, Let us tell tales of the past to each other. I can tell of banquet and revel and mirth, Where I was king, for I ruled in might; And the proudest and grandest souls on earth Mrs. Jennie Clopton, the woman of Long Beach who Col. Hoggatt Clopton of H Beach, her husband, for $300 maintenance and $5000 attorney has thrown all offers of co to the winds, and declares fight the case to the bitter month ago several days were ed in the superior court evidence; both sides accuse other of cruelty and abuse; the end of it Judge West litigants that they had been promise. The attorneys discompromise, which Col. Clopton accepted, but which Mrs. Clopton fuses to accept. Judge West has selected ty names from which will be drawn thirty. The names selected judge are as follows: A. C James' Fullerton and W. S Orange; E. J. Brown, Olive Dutton and John J. Dwyer; E. C. Cady and J. H. White Buena Park; A. D. Bishop F. Crist, El Modena; O. A and Harry Oldfield, Garden F. F. Farnsworth, Huntingtown William Loftus, Olinda; Sam mer, Placentia; C. H. King, quin; L. J. Carden, Robert den, George H. Randall, S. N ner, R.

Richards received jury a recommendation of Judge West said that while no provision in the law for recognition of a recommendation es of this kind, yet all judges it as binding. He said that not been for the recommend would have given Richards four and a half years. No will be taken.

Walk On a well-spread table, rim to rim; One was ruddy and red as blood, And one was clear as the crystal flood. Said the glass of wine to his paler brother, Let us tell tales of the past to each other. I can tell of banquet and revel and mirth, Where I was king, for I ruled in might; And the proudest and grandest souls on earth Fell under my touch as tho' struck with blight. From the heads of kings I have torn the crown; From the height of fame I have hurlled them down; I have blasted many an honored name; I have taken virtue and given shame; I have tempted youth with a sip, a taste, That made his future a barren waste. Far greater than any king am I, Or than any army under the sky. I have made good ships go down at sea, And the shrieks of the lost were sweet to me. Fame, wealth, strength, genius, before me fall, And my might and power are over all. What say you pale brother, laughed the wine, Can you boast of deeds as great as mine? Said the glass of water: I cannot boast Of a king dethroned, or a murdered host; But I can tell of hearts lone and sad By my crystal drops made light and glad; Of thirst I have quenched, of brows I have laved, Of hearts I have cooled, of souls I have saved. I have leaped through the valley and dashed down the mountain; Slept in the sunshine and dripped from the fountain; I have burst my cloud-fetters and dropped from the sky, everywhere gladdened the land and eye; made the parched meadow vertile with grain; all of the powerful wheel of will bound out the flour and turnmy will; of manhood debased by you have uplifted and crowned I help, I strengthen and in the heart of man and of our chained wine-captive free share made better by knowing are the things they said to other: less of wine and its paler with the water flowing with the veins of this strong king, and with the prayers of your women the songs your children sing. Oh City Fathers!! trust this day made yours, sake of your children's chilyour homes and theirs.

A committee was appointed on the opening of new roads, several shorter routes from the beet lands to the sugar factory being needed. Stockholders of the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation company, after two hours' discussion of water development plans on Saturday, passed a resolution endorsing the increase of capital stock from $100,000 to $500,000. While the stock is now worth $1,280,-000, the company still has the capitalization it had when it was formed over thirty years ago. An increase is necessary in order to obtain money for extensive water development in the Santa Ana canyon. DOUBLE SALARY GRAFT Members of Legislature Seem to Be Doing Quite Well I wonder if Assemblyman J. P. Transue will continue drawing his $200 a month salary as a member of the state building and loan commission, while acting as a lawmaker, for which latter job he will be paid $1,-000 in a lump sum? asks the Los Angeles Graphic. The pernicious practice of awarding double pay for a single service has been a petty graft in California for years, yet there never is a protest from any one in an effort to have it discontinued. Constable Ben Cohen, who has gone north for a Sacramento stay of ten weeks, wisely arranged for a substitute to draw his Los Angeles monthly stipend as peace officer before leaving home. I miss my guess if Senator S. G. McCartney does not put in a bill for two thousand dollars at the present session for services rendered as a member of the state tax reform commission.

Constable Ben Cohen, who has gone north for a Sacramento stay of ten weeks, wisely arranged for a substitute to draw his Los Angeles monthly stipend as peace officer before leaving home. I miss my guess if Senator S. G. McCartney does not put in a bill for two thousand dollars at the present session for services rendered as a member of the state tax reform commission. Such an amount was allowed him two yearago, and while McCartney doubtless can safely claim he earned the money over again, it would look more like business, if, while performing his tax duties, he had failed to draw from Los Angeles county his salary as an assistant district attorney. If he earned one stipend, he failed to render proper public service for the other, and McCartney is much too valuable in the state capital to permit a charge of anything like small graft to stand against his name. Another of the thrifty officeholders drawing double pay is W. H. Wright, credited to San Gabriel, who draws $1500 a year as "statistician for the county," making newspaper "reports" twice a year for his salary. To this persistent job-hunter has been given the position of minute clerk of the senate at $6 a day. He will be recalled as the politician who was sued on a note about a year ago by a medical student who had lent the San Gabriel man $200, which he wanted repaid. Wright's defense, shamelessly given, apparently, was that he had offset the indebtedness by using his influence with the board of supervisors to get his financial angel admitted as an interne to the county hospital. Frugal Mr. Wright! Now he will add $600 to his $1500 received as statistician, presumably, and, perhaps, use his "influence" in behalf of other struggling students when he returns home, giving his note of hand for whatever he may be able to "borrow." "I can truthfully say that I believe that, but for the use of your Emulsion I would long since have been in my grave. I was past work—could not walk up-hill without coughing very hard." THIS, and much more was written by Mr. G. W. Hower- "I can truthfully say that I believe that, but for the use of your Emulsion I would long since have been in my grave. I was past work—could not walk up-hill without coughing very hard." THIS, and much more was written by Mr. G. W. Howerton, Clark's Gap, W. Va. We would like to send you a full copy of his letter, or you might write him direct. His case was really marvelous, but is only one of the many proofs that Scott’s Emulsion is the most strengthening and re-vitalizing preparation in the world. Even in that most stubborn of all diseases (consumption) it does wonders, and in less serious troubles, such as anemia, bronchitis, asthma, catarrh, or loss of flesh from any cause the effect is much quicker. Do not delay. Get a bottle of SCOTT'S EMULSION—be sure it's SCOTT'S and try it. ALL DRUGGISTS Let us send you Mr. Howerton's letter and some literature on Consumption.
