NEW EDIFICE FOR SISTERS IMPROVEMENTS COSTING $30,000 ARE UNDER WAY Contract for Handsome Three-Story Addition to Convent Awarded Bender & Silbernagel—Sisters’ School to Have Frontage of 120 Feet The Sisters of St. Dominic this week awarded a contract to Bender & Silbernagel, local contractors, for the erection of brick additions to their present convent building on Palm street which will cost upward of $30,000. The new building will be three stories high, with cement foundation and will have a frontage immediately adjoining the present brick building on the south of 70 feet, with a depth of 40 feet. Added to the present 50-foot frontage the new convent will have a total frontage of 120 feet with a depth of 50 feet. Plans already prepared for the structure show it will be of exceedingly ornate architecture, calculated to make an imposing appearance. The building will not be ready for occupancy before Christmas, when accommodations will be ample for 300 pupils. At present the school contains 160 boys, and it requires the constant attention of 21 Sisters to properly and fowl. Milk and butter are served daily from a nearby dairy. They are comfortably housed, properly cloated and are well provided for. Attention is paid to their diet and little sickness exists among them. During the twenty years of the existence of this institution in which time hundreds of boys have been taught, only one death has occurred. Probably the most interesting features of the boys’ maintenance are the dormitories with their well ventilated and spacious apartments and neat beds arranged in spotless linen. In the dormitories devoted to the younger children are scores of trundle-beds placed side by side in long rows. In each dormitory two sisters remain with the children over night. How often these good sisters are called during the night to attend to the numerous wants of their youthful charges the world will never know. Only those who have raised children and who know the never-ending tribulations which attend the younger minds, can be aware of the multitudinous duties devolving upon these faithful women who are giving their lives to the education and uplifting of these children. Two sisters remain with them constantly to attend to their every want. Nearby is the infirmary with numerous beds placed in a well ventilated and airy apartment. Indeed, there is little use for this part of the present school facilities are made necessary by the constantly increasing number of applicants for tuition. For several years the school has been taxed to its utmost to accommodate its students and enlargements long ago decided upon are this week under way. The new building will be occupied as classrooms, and dormitories, the latter being on the upper floors. In the south half of the new structure will be a large auditorium capable of seating several hundred people. On the second floor of this structure will be an audience-room, and the upper floor will be devoted to dormitories. The entire building will have wide porches and balconies. The present dormitory building, which is a frame structure 140 feet in length, will have the front 70 feet moved back, and set at right angles with the west portion. A fram building 70 feet in length occupying the site of the proposed new building will be moved to the west building line, and used as a playhouse for the students. Contractor Tharp of Santa Ana has been awarded a contract for moving the buildings and will begin operations today. Work upon the cement foundations will begin as soon as the buildings are moved. A number of old trees which stand on the grounds which offered shade to Sisters and pupils alike will be cut down. The first building to be erected by the Sisters here was in 1889. In July, 1894, the first addition was built for the boys home. In 1897 a second addition was constructed, and in 1900 other notable additions to the building were made. The chapel was and who know the never ending tribulations which attend the younger minds, can be aware of the multitudinous duties devolving upon these faithful women who are giving their lives to the education and uplifting of these children. Two sisters remain with them constantly to attend to their every want. Nearby is the infirmary with numerous beds placed in a well ventilated and airy apartment. Indeed, there is little use for this part of the home. In the chapel the boys attend services, which are presided over by Rev. Father Bryne, whom the boys dearly love and who lives in a pretty little cottage on the grounds. The chapel is reached by two flights of stairs, and as in the case of the other buildings, is roomy and well ventilated. METHER AND SISTER Mr. and Mrs. Alex Henry Have Happy Reupion at Leith, Scotland John Henry last week received a letter from his father, Alex Henry, who sailed with Mrs. Henry some weeks ago for their old home in Scotland. Mr. Henry writes he and his wife are stopping in Leith, Scotland, and are having a most enjoyable visit. The trip across the ocean was uniformly pleasant, there being a jolly crowd aboard and a plenty of amusement all the way over. The day after the travelers arrived in Leith Mr. Henry met an elder brother, who had for years believed him to be dead. The two had not met since Mr. Henry sailed for the United States fifty years ago. At first they corresponded, but as years rolled on their correspondence ceased, and each regarded the other as having passed away. News of the arrival of the Anaheimers spread, and the next day Mrs. Henry was overjoyed to meet a younger sister whom she had not seen since she left Leith for America. A family reunion was had and mirth and thanksgiving filled the program until further orders. NEITHER DEAD NOR SLEEPING Despite Tale of Woe as Borne In From the Hills This week's mail brings us the as the buildings are moved. A number of old trees which stand on the grounds which offered shade to Sisters and pupils alike will be cut down. The first building to be erected by the Sisters here was in 1889. In July, 1894, the first addition was built for the boys home. In 1897 a second addition was constructed, and in 1900 other notable additions to the building were made. The chapel was erected in 1905. Now the largest addition is already under way. The present buildings and grounds occupy a sightly tract of twenty-six acres, the grounds being highly ornamented with palm and evergreen tree lawns, shrubs and flowers; winding walks meander through the grounds, and are bordered with flower beds maintained in a high state of cultivation. The main building is a commodious three-story and basement brick structure. Numerous frame buildings nearby are devoted to the uses of classrooms, dining-rooms, dormitories and a chapel. The boys rise at 6:30 in the morning and an hour later are breakfasted. The morning and afternoon hours are devoted to study. The course is identical with that taught in the public schools up to the eighth grade and principles of Christian doctrine are daily instilled into their youthful minds. At noon they have dinner and at 6 o'clock supper is served. The dining rooms are nicely arranged and the tables well set. Neat china and silver are at each place. The tables spread with snowy tablecloths and the viands wholesome and well prepared. They are fed plenty of fruits berries and vegetables, of which the rich fields of the valley afford abundance. They are given meat once a day, with occasional variation of fish a younger sister whom she had not seen since she left Leith for America. A family reunion was had and mirth and thanksgiving filled the program until further orders. NEITHER DEAD NOR SLEEPING Despite Tale of Woe as Borne In From the Hills This week's mail brings us the following communication: June 24th, 1909. On my ranch just west of your town, I have some Valencia oranges, and some peaches which I wish to sell. I have examined the columns of your paper to find some fruit buyers' advertisement, but have failed to find any such advertisement, in fact your paper is largely filled with most excellent reading matter. I have written to several of your citizens, making inquiries for a local fruit buyer, but have received no reply. Can you give me the name of any fruit buyer in your town? Is your town dead or merely sleeping? Yours truly. Our friend might try bringing in his fruits on Market Day. He will find the town, on that day as well as all others, very much alive, with people here from all parts of the county, and all of them doing business. Meantime our merchants might investigate this matter and land a bargain by purchasing the fruit on the ranch. We know it is first class. Suit to foreclose a mortgage on real estate given to secure two promissory notes amounting in the aggregate to $30,000, have been filed in court. The plaintiff is Casper Borchard, against M. Kujawsky and Handel Kujawsky of Talbert.

The WATCHING FOR FOREST FIRES SCORES OF LOOKOUT STATIONS TO BE ESTABLISHED News of Breaking Out of Mountain Fires to Be Telegraphed to Forest Officials—Will Command View of Country for Miles—Men Engaged [Contributed to The Gazette] Working along the line of securing the greatest results in protection against fire, with a minimum of expenditure, the Forest Service has decided to establish on the most advantageous points of the National Forests in the West a series of look out stations from which news of the breaking out of forest fires can be telephoned to Forest officials. Since all of these stations will command a view of the country for miles around the work of detecting and extinguishing fires in their incipiency will, by the aid of this plan, be expedited, with the result that many thousands of dollars worth of valuable timber will be saved annually. In most of the National Forests States the climate is very dry and the rainfall light. Conditions, therefore, are remarkably favorable for the spread of fire and extraordinary diligence is necessary in patrolling dan- The following property owners have deeded the necessary ground for opening the alley, have paid the amounts assessed against them and have been relieved from further assessments therefor: Odd Fellows' Hall Association — Damages awarded, $260; deeded 18 feet, its property fronting both sides of the alley.

Ordinance No. 211, relating to appointment of Commissioners for opening alley south of Center street was passed. The Commissioners are Max Nebelung, F. A. Backs Jr. and J. J. Schneider. The bond of Fairchild-Gilmore-Welton Company for street paving, amounting to $10,000 was accepted. The paving was submitted and approved. Operations will begin this week. CLEANING THE ALLEY How Citizens Profited by the Sanitation Exhibit Once there lived a lot of high-toned people in two fine residence streets. The thoroughfares were among the handsomest in town. The alley running midway between them was the most uncleanly. There were stacks of rubbish, tincans, decaying potatoes and oranges and what not—principally the latter. One day the citizens got together, after the visit of the Sanitation train and the health officer had cast his eagle eye up the alley, and cleaned it up. All except the editor of a great religious newspaper. The others coaxed, cajoled and threatened him. But he wouldn't budge. All he would say is, what do you know about that? One of them said: "How much will you take for your property and move out of the neighborhood?" Another said: "How much will you take for your property and move out of town?" The neighbors threw dead cats,tin cans and other impediment upon the solitary pile of rubbish. Higher and higher it grew, until it became exceedingly picturesque. They stole his chickens and wood, and kept throwing old potatoes and apricots on the rubbish heap. He went to the office of the street superintendent and said: "The neighbors are getting gay on the alley. They have cleaned up their places, and the alley looks cleaner than the residence streets. I have cleaned up my premises and placed the garbage all in a nice heap.I cannot burn it, like some of the others have done, for this is against the ordinance.I don't know where around the work of detecting and extinguishing fires in their incipiency will, by the aid of this plan, be expedited, with the result that many thousands of dollars worth of valuable timber will be saved annually. In most of the National Forests States the climate is very dry,and the rainfall light。 Conditions,thefore, are remarkably favorable for the spread of fire and extraordinary diligence is necessary in patrolling dangerous areas.To administer to the vast area included in the National Forests, approximately 195,000,000 acres,the government has about 1400 men in the field If each man could be used for fire patrol,he would have to cover approximately 138,000 acres.As a matter of fact,however,the volume of business on the National Forests has grown to such proportions that less than twenty-five per cent of the force is available This makes it necessary to spread an average man's service over nearly four times 138,000 acres,decreasing fire protection far below the point of safety in many cases. In the face of this,however,fire losses on the national forests are kept at a point where they are trival when compared with the damage which would be caused were the land in the national forests unprotected. PASSED A BUM CHECK H. A. Kessler of Cypress Is Going to See About It H. A. Kessler who lives in the west country near Cypress is going to have the law on Constable Litten,even if it takes his last shinplaster to do so.The trouble all came about in this way:Kessler two weeks ago issued a check in the sum of $2 to a citizen,for work duly performed,and the check was dishonored at the bank. The party holding the worthless check sought out Recorder Howard and laid the case before him That august official advised the check be turned over to Constable Litten for collection,he being known far and wide for his persuasive and winning ways in such cases. Litten set out for Kessler's ranch and had no difficulty in collecting the amount of the check,plus a reasonable amount for his fee。它 was claimed at the ranch that a mistake had been made by the Los Angeles J. Frownenfield wrote in regard to widening of Citron street through his property between South and Broad streets, asking the board to state the amount of compensation to be allowed him for a row of walnut trees which would have to be removed to make thoroughfare 59 1-2 feet wide. The Clerk was instructed to notify Mr. Frownenfeld that when the time arrived for removing the trees a board of arbitration would be appointed to appraise their value, which the city will pay, when the city decides to remove the trees and widen the street. Application of F. A. Maurer to construct a barn in rear of residence on Resh street, to cost $100, was granted. Bender & Silbernagel, contractors, were granted a permit to construct a frame dwelling for Mr. Thompson on Kroeger street, to cost $1500. The Associated Oil Company wrote asking when the city will need road oil under contract recently entered into for 1500 barrels. The Clerk was instructed to notify the company a carload will be needed in a few days. The Santa Ana Artificial Stone & Pipe Company wrote asking a lease of the old power house land on Cypress street for the manufacture of artificial stone and pipe. The company offered rental at the rate of $2 per month and an additional $25 for the old jail building if the city will move it 100 feet. The Clerk was authorized to write stating price for west 125 feet of property would be $4 per month, six months to be paid in advance, and will sell the old jail building for $25 cash, the company to move it as it desires. He went to the office of the street superintendent and said: "The neighbors are getting gay on the alley. They have cleaned up their places, and the alley looks cleaner than the residence streets. I have cleaned up my premises and placed the garbage all in a nice heap. I cannot burn it, like some of the others have done, for this is against the ordinance. I don’t know where the dumping grounds are, and whatever am I to do about it?" "I will have the garbage taken away if you will appear as a witness against the men who made fires in the alley. That is against the ordinance, and the law must be obeyed." The alley is clean from one end to the other. A SOCIETY EVENT One of the most charming events of the season was the 500 party given by Mrs. Schneider and Mrs. Dietrich at the home of the former on Palm street. The card tables, seven in number were arranged in the commodious living room which was artistically decorated in Shasta daisies and ferns, the green and white showing to advantage against the dull red walls of the room. After the last game refreshments were served, the first course consisting of chicken salad, wafers and punch, the second of ice cream, strawberries and cake. After the discussion of the refreshments the prizes were awarded. Miss Marie Rimpau won the first, a china jar and Miss Sophie Rimpau, the second, a preserve spoon. It was late in the afternoon when the last guest departed, after a most enjoyable occasion. Litten set out for Kessler’s ranch and had no difficulty in collecting the amount of the check, plus a reasonable amount for his fee. It was claimed at the ranch that a mistake had been made by the Los Angeles bank; where a sum of money said to be $180 was on deposit. Be that as it may, the check was returned unpaid. Kessler wanted to know if Litten had authority to collect the money, and Judge Howard informed him that the party to whom the check was issued desired to cause his arrest for issuing a worthless check, but, on Litten’s advice, refrained from swearing to papers pending a settlement of the account. All this time Litten was irrigating trees near the primary school, and did not know what a narrow escape he had had. C. O. Rust writes from Seattle that he and his family are having a fine time at the fair. He starts on Sunday for the Yellowstone Park. Joseph Fiscus is considering an offer for 60 acres of his walnut tract south of town. Mr. Fiscus was this week offered a half cent per pound over the association rate for his entire crop of walnuts. O. J. Goehner of the Bartlett Music Co. on Tuesday placed in the Crone residence on East Broadway an A. B. Chase “Artistano” player piano, the only one of its kind in this city. It is of Colonial style, Circasion walnut, and is one of the best player pianos made.

O. Royer, the West End capitalist, and a delegation of city officials, including Trustes Fiscus, Gates and Kroeger, Engineer Lewis and Street Superintendent Steadman. The meeting was held at Mr. Royer's residence, and was for the purpose of discussing the propriety of enlarging the city's pipe line supplying that gentleman with water. Mr. Royer stated the city's service was inadequate to supply his needs. He desired a larger supply than could be delivered by the present pipeline. The city officials decided after the conference to install a six-inch pipe line from Los Angeles street to Clementina, and a four-inch line from the latter street to Walnut street, where Mr. Royer obtains his supply. In his usual public-spirited manner he assured the city officials that he would procure the pipe at cost. Mr. Royer is creating on his holdings at the West End one of the show places of Southern California. His expenditures during the past three years are said to have been upward of $200,000. Recently, when Mr. Huntington and Engineer Pillsbury of the Pacific Plains Bureau resigned his position as local manager for the Pacific (Sunset) Telephone and Telegraph company, and will leave the company's service about the middle of July. He will for the present devote himself to his private business interests. His successor in the telephone office has not yet been appointed. Mr. Schwenckert has resigned his position as local manager for the Pacific (Sunset) Telephone and Telegraph company, and will leave the company's service about the middle of July. He will for the present devote himself to his private business interests. His successor in the telephone office has not yet been appointed. MR. SCHWENCKERT RESIGNS FROM TELEPHONE COMPANY Nevada Nature-Faker Tells of the Beauties of Cobless Corn—Pioneer Couple Celebrate Fortieth Anniversary—Other Notes of Interest W. O. F. Schwenckert has resigned his position as local manager for the Pacific (Sunset) Telephone and Telegraph company, and will leave the company's service about the middle of July. He will for the present devote himself to his private business interests. His successor in the telephone office has not yet been appointed. Mr. Schwenckert has been local manager of the Sunset for nearly 2 years, and has during that time increased the company's business fifty per cent. He has given the city the best service ever rendered by the company, and to him was in large part due the cutting out of tolls, which were foreign to other exchanges. The company's business was restricted so long as these tolls remained, but once cut out, the number of phones increased in all directions. The company has lost the services of a capable manager, and an of detecting and excess in their incipiency of this plan, be exthe result that many dollars worth of valuabe saved annually. the National Forests state is very dry,and hot.

This necessary to spread an avvice over nearly four fires, decreasing fire below the point of cases. Of this, however, fire national forests are where they are tripared with the damage caused were the land forests unprotected. A BUM CHECK Of Cypress Is Going to Be About It who lives in the west Cypress is going to Constable Litten, evithis last shinplaster to stable all came about in under two weeks ago is the sum of $2 to a kick duly performed,and dishonored at the leading the worthless out Recorder Howard case before him. That advised the check be Constable Litten for being known far and persuasive and winning cases. for Kessler's ranch difficulty in collecting the check, plus a reafor his fee. It was branch that a mistake by the Los Angeles latter street to Walnut street, where Mr. Royer obtains his supply.

Mr. Royer is creating on his holdings at the West End one of the show places of Southern California. His expenditures during the past three years are said to have been upward of $200,000. Recently, when Mr. Huntington and Engineer Pillsbury of the Pacific Electric railway drove through this section they visited the tract and expressed themselves as surprised at the extent and character of the improvements. They added that if any indication were necessary of the growth of this section it was abundantly proven by Mr. Royer, and that such development was the strongest incentive for building their electric railway line into this neighborhood. Work upon the new pipe line will begin immediately. TEDDY BEARS VICTORS Defeat Locals at Baseball by Excellent Playing The Teddy Bears baseball club of Los Angeles defeated the locals on the Southside grounds on Sunday by a score of 11 to 1. The bruin aggregation proved to be the strongest nine appearing on the grounds this season, and put up a superior article of ball from start to finish. The home team used four pitchers to stay the stumpde of the foreigners, but to no avail. Derenia, who twirled the entire game for the winners, had his playing clothes on, and besides striking out seven against Hansen's four,Carpenter's three and Huntington's three, made three hits and one assist for his aggregation. In the fourth, fifth and sixth innings the winners took a batting rally and scored most of their runs. Anaheim in the third inning sent Hatfield over the plate and failed to score after inning. Mack, Cowan,McKeen and Ferraris were the heavy stickers for the winners. The winners got fourteen hits and the losers three. HARRIMAN UNDER NOURISHED Advised to Eat Much Meat and Unlimited Malt Beer If you want to find out all about cobless corn, ask Mr. Rea about it. A week or two ago he received a letter from George Bower, a nature-faking entomologist of Las Vegas, N.M., saying the Nevada experiment station had successfully raised a new variety of cobless corn, and adding that if he desired to have a few seed he would be glad to forward some by mail. Bower said the Nevada farmers were outdoing Luther Burbank and were producing a stringless bean, but that cobless corn was the latest and best of their productions. Mr. Rea wrote expressing surprise at the discovery, and expressed a desire to have some of the seed. He states he knew all along there was no such thing as cobless corn, but this his friends doubt. Bower wrote V. U. Simpson to the effect that Rea had written for seed of the cobless corn. "I am going to send him some by mail," wrote the Nevada man. "Have a crowd at the postoffice when he opens the package; then guy him. 'It's the best joke of the season. Pass the story around, and have the boys ask him what he knows about cobless corn." The letter to Simpson arrived on time, but by some mischance was turned over to Rea, the three men having been in correspondence over mutual interests for some time past. Simpson did not notice it was marked "personal," and innocently left Rea into the secret. Bowers' cobless corn seed arrived on Saturday. It was merely a sample of broom corn. Rea received it, but the crowd was not at the post but Recorder Howard chose before him. That advised the check be Constable Litten for being known far and persuasive and winning cases. for Kessler's ranch difficulty in collecting the check, plus a rea-fire for his fee.

Harriman has been told that his salvation lies in getting fat. He must put on flesh. Professor Struempell made a thorough examination of the financier today and came to the conclusion that he is under-nourished. Mr. Harriman tipped the scales at 144 pounds and the Professor, after fingering the Harriman ribs, announced that his patient must have the fattening cure, "Plenty of cereals, large quantities of milk, much meat, and, above all, unlimited malt beer," was the Struempell prescription. Mr. Harriman, on receiving this advice, laughed and exclaimed: "Three cheers for bread and beer." He will remain at Semmering until July 15, practicing this fattening diet, and then go to Bendaste to take radium baths. At the Methodist church Sunday morning, July 4th, Rev. J. L.Moore will deliver a patriotic address on "The Land We Love." The choir will render special music suited to the occasion. You are cordially invited to attend and help make this a genuine patriotic service. Sunday evening at 7:30 the subject will be "Terminals" at which service special music will also be rendered. The letter to Simpson arrived on time, but by some mischance was turned over to Rea, the three men having been in correspondence over mutual interests for some time past. Simpson did not notice it was marked "personal," and innocently let Rea into the secret. Bowers' cobless corn seed arrived on Saturday. It was merely a sample of broom corn. Rea received it, but the crowd was not at the post office to josh him. He insists he knew all along there was no such thing as cobless corn, but Simpson says that ain't so. WEDDING ANNIVERSARY Mr. and Mrs. Konig were tendered an enjoyable surprise on Saturday afternoon on the occasion of their fortyth wedding anniversary. Mr. and Mrs. Konig were married in Los Angeles in 1869, and have since been residents of this city, enjoying the esteem and high regard of all who know them. Forty years is a long time as things go in this world, but Mr. Konig informed his guests it seemed as if it were only yesterday that he claimed a young and beautiful bride—who is as fair today as ever. The afternoon was spent in social converse, narration of reminescences, discussing refreshments and congratulations over the happy event. Bride and groom have the felicitations of their many friends and best wishes for a long and happy married life. "Three of a kind," observed Mr. Keallher at a trio of capitalists walking down the street the other day. Mr. Keallher made that Los Angeles commission firm think he was no four-flusher himself. What?
