SANTA ANA A. L. Allen of Garden Grove came to Santa Ana Saturday to help celebrate, and about 8 o'clock in the evening was taken into custody as a bootlegger. He was slightly under the influence of liquor, according to the officers. In this condition he sold to a special policeman a pint of alcohol, the two men retiring to an alley on Sycamore street, where the delivery was made. Allen was immediately placed under arrest and the bottle of alcohol taken as an exhibit for use at the trial. Allen was placed under $500 bonds upon pleading not guilty Saturday night, and went to jail in default of bonds. He has retained E. T. Langley to defend him. Allen evidently secured his supply from some drugstore, purchasing grain alcohol. Whether he doctored it or not is not known to the officers. The man is well known in the Garden Grove section as a woodchopper. Living in squalor, and though old and getting feeble, working at day labor, Richard J. Proctor approached death with $3586.05 hidden in his room in the corrugated iron building at corner of Third and Sycamore streets. Last Friday he died at the Santa Ana hospital. Sunday morning, learning that possibly Proctor had left a little money, Public Administrator G. S. Smith searched the man's room, and found $2410 in currency, $1175 in gold and $1.05 in silver. Most of the money was in an old money belt stuck away in a chest. Proctor had lived in Santa Ana for over twenty years. He was always considered a poor man. He worked at day labor, and was close-fisted. So secretly had he hoarded his money that not even his friends had any idea that he had anything more than a small amount. That he might have something somewhere was suspected for the reason that he never discussed money matters, and when they FULLERTON Mayor Coulter is in favor of cutting down the city limits, and some of the fruit growers in the worst end and east end are also desirous of getting out of the city, they holding that if this is done the county will have to keep the roads up to the city limits north, south, east and west, which will cut down the expenses on the part of the city and will bring the county road work much closer to the central part of Fullerton. Many voters in the business and central part of the city say if the matter is brought to a vote it will be "snowed under" by an overwhelming majority. It would require a two-thirds vote to carry. The receipts at the postoffice for the quarter ending September 30 were $2272, the largest in the history of the office. This is an increase of $564 over the same quarter last year. For the week ending Monday night oranges were shipped as follows from Fullerton in carload lots: Dalrymple 6, Placentia Association 10, Benchley 6, Strain 4, Chapman 5, Citrus Union 1. The California Vegetable Union shipped two cars of tomatoes east this week, paying $20 per ton. This is the first heavy shipment of the new crop from this section. Banker C. W. Crandall left yesterday for Spirit Lake, Ia., on account of the sudden death of a relative. Mrs. Crandall is now visiting relatives in that city. The Newmark grain company of Los Angeles shipped two cars of beans from Fullerton this week. W. W. Tucker and family left on Monday for Eureka Springs, Ark. T. D.

Proctor had lived in Santa Ana for over twenty years. He was always considered a poor man. He worked at day labor, and was close-fisted. So secretly had he hoarded his money that not even his friends had any idea that he had anything more than a small amount. That he might have something somewhere was suspected for the reason that he never discussed money matters, and when they were broached he always closed his mouth. It is said that he was formerly a dry goods merchant. He came to California in 1843. He was well liked and was a good worker. W. F. Lutz for whom Proctor often worked at odd jobs says the old man could cut more wood in a day than many a younger woodchopper. Proctor had been in charge of the county physicians for several years, though not a county charge as an indigent. He was taken to the hospital suffering from erysipelas, and died shortly after arrival there. WESTMINSTER Citizens of this section are moving for an electric railway to run from Bay City to Westminster and thence to a junction with the line at Garden Grove. The railroad committee is composed of Frank Turner, F. F. Skelly and E. G. Stone. The gun clubs in that vicinity are also anxious for electric connection, and will co-operate with the Westminster people. On Thursday night the railroad committee met with Ed Golter, representing the Chico Land and Water company, and Attorney Leeds, of the Westminster gun club. Mr. Leeds is also P. A. Stanton's attorney, and the latter's influence will no doubt be thrown to the movement. The committee will meet with Mr. Leeds in his office in Los Angeles. Plans will be discussed and a line of work decided upon. One result of this meeting will be the naming of one or more men to lay the proposition before the railroad authorities and ascertain if such an undertaking would be considered, and if so, what terms would have to be made. The method of raising a bonus, should one be demanded, has not yet been settled on. The proposed line is to run from Bay City to Garden Grove via Westminster. From Bay City the route will be to a point known as Peters' active Mrs. Crandall is now visiting relatives in that city. The Newmark grain company of Los Angeles shipped two cars of beans from Fullerton this week. W. W. Tucker and family left on Monday for Eureka Springs, Ark. T. D. Robertson and wife have returned from an extended visit with friends at Brandtsford, Canada. F. J. Paschal has shipped a carload of household goods to Guensy, Cal., where he will farm on a large scale. Steve McCulloch will leave for Petaluma today to attend a meeting of the directors of the Placentia fruit company. GROUND SQUIRREL MUST GO Sacramento, Oct. 3.—Ground squirrels are doomed to destruction in this section of the state. Just how they are to be eradicated has not been fully determined, but the State Board of Health has decided that they must be killed. The board is aroused by the report of a second case of bubonic plague from this source of infection. The first which was from Contra Costa county, a few weeks ago, resulted fatally, and was traced to a ground squirrel which the victim, a boy, had killed. Another boy in Alameda county has been bitten by one of the infected squirrels and has a well developed attack of the plague. The board discussed the matter today and decided upon an active campaign. Every farmer in this part of the state will be asked to join in the warfare on the little pests.

The method of raising a bonus, should one be demanded, has not yet been settled on. The proposed line is to run from Bay City to Garden Grove via Westminster. From Bay City the route will be to a point known as Peters' Corner, thence in a northeasterly direction along the grant line to the Westminster road; thence due east through Westminster road; thence northeast to Garden Grove, making a junction with the Los Angeles-Santa Ana line, just east of the Garden Grove depot. The proposed route passes through a very rich section and would have the effect of opening up new territory. It passes through beet lands and skirts the celery growing section. SMELTZER Fire destroyed the barn of the Golden West Celery & Produce Co. at Smeltzer at 11 o'clock Friday night. One horse was burned to death and eleven were badly burned, one of which will probably die. It is not known how the fire started. An incendiary may have been responsible. In the fire 250 tons of hay and twelve sets of work harness were destroyed. Everybody in the neighborhood turned out to help. The eleven horses were in a corral. When the fire started they tried to get into the barn, and were burned about the head and shoulders. The corral was opened and the animals turned out. "Drunkenness is folly," earnestly exclaimed Bishop Magee in the House of Lords on a celebrated occasion. How horrified was the prelate to read in the papers next morning that he had given utterance to the very Bacchanalian sentiment, "Drunkenness is jolly." Lord Salisbury was a master phrasemaker; but one of his best points was spoiled when a careless reporter turned his reference to "manacles and Manitoba" into the meaningless "manacles and men at the bar." Sir William Harcourt was badly misreported once. "Great is Diana of the Ephesians," he exclaimed upon the platform; but a country paper had it, "Great Dinah. What a farce this is." Lack of knowledge of familiar quotations is a prolific source of misreporting. For instance, a speaker once made use of the well-known lines from Milton's L'Allegro: "But come, thou goddess, fair and free, In heaven yclept Euphrosyne." The country reporter deputed to "take him down" was in despair. He could not make head or tail of this mysterious utterance. But, following the sound as far as possible, he seized his pen, and produced the following gem: "But come, thou goddess, fair and free, In heaven she crept, and froze her knee." The speaker was "taken down" in more senses than one. GOVERNOR MAKES REPLY Says Accusation by Mrs. Coffin is Absurd and Illogical Sacramento, Oct. 4.—"If Mrs. Lillian Harris Coffin has been quoted correctly, she is talking through her hat—and a big merry widow hat, at that. I made no pledge to her as she did not ask for one. The matter is absolutely absurd and illogical." This is Gov. Gillett's answer to the accusation that he pledged himself to the suffrage cause at Santa Cruz before he was elected governor, and after election refused to use his influence with the legislature to get a suffrage act before the people. This is Mrs. Coffin's story, but the governor declares he does not even know her. He adds: "I do not remember having any such conversation with Mrs. Coffin at Santa Cruz, though I might have said what she declares I said in my office, during the last legislature. These suffragists know how I stand, and I am not one to hide my opinion from anybody, if it is asked. I cannot. "I might have told Mrs. Coffin that the place for women was at home, and that we men are pretty capable of running the government, but as to pledging myself to her cause—it is absurd. I voted against woman suffrage when I was in the senate, and would do so again. Everybody knows how bitter I am against it. "I think women should be at home helping to raise citizens to run the county, and not trying to unix in political affairs themselves. This thing of women making stump speeches and canvassing for votes is ridiculous. They should be attending to their household affairs at home, and I think that would be a good place for Mrs. Coffin herself."

DAVIS, PAGE and HENNEY VEHICLES. Some people insist on having the best of everything. In buying carriages and harness the best is never too good. We have a large number of customers who appreciate the fact that "I think women should be at home helping to raise citizens to run the county, and not trying to unix in political affairs themselves.

They should be attending to their household affairs at home, and I think that would be a good place for Mrs. Coffin herself." BAD VENTILATION Improper ventilation spells disaster in the poultry house. Very little profit or well doing can be expected from the flock if it is compelled to roost in some old ramshackle building or poorly built house where the wind car whistle through the cracks and make long drifts of snow across the floor in winter, when instead the building should be snug and ventilation secured through properly hinged and located windows. It is our experience that the average farm flock suffers more on account of conditions such as we have mentioned than for any other reason. It is seldom that they do not get enough food and drink, as farm fowls have access to plenty of range most of the time and to the barn yards practically all the time. We have always found it a difficult matter to convince those who are not making a specialty of poultry that a poultry house made so as to be as near as possible free from draughts was an absolute essential for success. Many houses are built of lumber which has been used on other buildings and matches very badly, leaving large cracks. We do not blame any man for making use of secondhand lumber whenever possible. However, when such a case as this exists in the poultry house it can easily be remedied by sliding the walls of the building over with some good roofing paper. It is better to put it on the outside than on the inside, as there is a tendency in cold weather for frost to collect on the inside walls when papered, which makes the quarters damp. A few dollars spent in this way will work a great change for the better this coming winter. No one should expect hens to lay well where they are compelled to stand around with their feathers ruffled, and looking as if they were nearly frozen to death. Provided the building is made snug as we have suggested, ventilation may best be secured by having the winnowed to say so. Men and women who are obtrusive in eating soup, ladling it into their mouths, and holding the spoon in such a position that one fears that the palate will be hit and injured, are to be met with too often. So are those who talk with their mouths full. That's not all; the observer who has been pained by marking the greedy manner in which the cream pitcher is snatched for and left near the snatcher’s plate; the floods of syrup with which such bad-mannered persons inundate hot cakes and waffles the long scrutiny paid to the plate of peaches, and the careful selection of the largest—all these examples of bad manners are met too often. The looker-on who has registered these bad manners noted by her refers feelingly to the man who eats his lettuce like a rabbit, taking up a leaf and beginning at one end, chewing through it; of others who champ loudly through other food; those who smack their lips when they eat, and drink loudly. The pig is perhaps as offensive as anything can be; he who piles up his piece of berrypie with sugar and then empties the cream pitcher over it, who butters his pound cake and fills his coffee cup half full of sugar. Such are impossible to put up with. And the most exasperating thing about it all is the fact that it is wholly the result of bad training, or no training in their youth. The parcelled to say so.

COST OF MODERN WAR Fighting Ships Expensive and Short-Lived Luxuries Every broadside from a battleship of the Dreadnaught type costs, in round figures, $10,000 for the powder and shot, and the guns are capable of discharging six rounds per minute. The wear and tear of the guns has been such that at this rate of discharge a 12 inch rifle was rendered useless by half an hour's use. That is to say, the 12 inch rifle,with which most of our big ships have been armed, was not good for more than one hundred discharges. This is due to the erosion of the bore caused by the high velocity of discharge, which cuts away the rifling, so that the projectile leaves the muzzle with no speed of rotation. The consequences are thus described: "As a consequence the axis of the projectile falls to remain true to the line of flight, or trajectory, and the projectile itself begins to turn end over end and fails to strike the target head on. The rapid wear of the interior of the bore is supposed to be due to the extremely high temperature which accompanies the high velocity. Since the striking energy of a projectile is equal to the product of its weight and the square of its velocity, it is possible, by increas- for frost to collect on the inside walls when papered, which makes the quarters damp. A few dollars spent in this way will work a great change for the better this coming winter. No one should expect hens to lay well where they are compelled to stand around with their feathers ruffled, and looking as if they were nearly frozen to death. Provided the building is made snug as we have suggested, ventilation may best be secured by having the windows hinged at the bottom, so that they may be swung in at the top. As a rule, the roosts are in one end of the house, and if the windows are opposite each other at the further sides they can be kept open in this manner most of the day, without making it too cool for comfort. Hens enjoy sunshine and fresh air, but the latter should come through the windows and not through cracks and crevices. Aside from plenty of food of the right sort there is nothing which will insure a profit from poultry as sunny quarters filled with pure, sweet, atmosphere.—Des Moines Homestead. GOOD AND BAD MANNERS Some comments on the bad table manners of people as seen at summer hotels—the writer is careful to say not cheap ones, but fashionable hotels, which only people with money can visit—have been made one will suppose justly. In fact, one is common food; those who smack their lips when they eat, and drink loudly. The pig is perhaps as offensive as anything can be; he who piles up his piece of berryple with sugar and then empties the cream pitcher over it, who butters his pound cake and fills his coffee cup half full of sugar. Such are impossible to put up with. And the most exasperating thing about it all is the fact that it is wholly the result of bad training or no training, in their youth. The parents of all these unfortunate, misbehaving people neglected them in their childhood. There are few children—one might as well say none—who do not need long and careful training in table manners. What is prettier to observe than a little girl or boy who waits patiently until his time has come to be served, and then eats quietly and unobtrusively, and does not forget his polite "Yes, thank you," and "No, thank you." It's all very well to say that manners are only skin deep, and really are not worth worrying children over and various other such remarks. But it is not so. Good manners persevered in reach quite below the surface, and make the user a considerate person, who is not obliged to remind himself that he ought to remember others' needs, but does so without thought, as a natural impulse. Such manners may well be mistaken for genuine kindness of heart; who should say they are not? As a consequence the aims of the projectile falls to remain true to the line of flight, or trajectory, and the projectile itself begins to turn end over end and fails to strike the target head on. The rapid wear of the interior of the bore is supposed to be due to the extremely high temperature which accompanies the high velocity. Since the striking energy of a projectile is equal to the product of its weight and the square of its velocity, it is possible, by increasing the weight of the projectile, to decrease the velocity without a loss of striking energy. This is what has been done in the case of the 14 inch gun, which, as compared with the 12 inch gun, firing a 1000 pound shell at 2500 feet per second, will fire a 1600 pound shell at about 2100 feet per second and with a much lower powder pressure and temperature. The decrease in the erosion is expected to give the 14 inch gun more than double the accuracy life of the 12 inch gun." As the result our big ships will in future be armed with the 14 inch gun, using less powder, but throwing more metal. The new gun will not be more effective or more powerful than the 12 inch rifle, but it will last longer. With careful handling it should be good for some two hundred discharges. It takes a lot of money to keep a navy going, with $10,000,000 ships and $10,000 broadsides, that wear out a gun with two hundred shots.

A GOOD SHOWING Government Forests of Prussia Well Managed Prussia has National Forests, covering nearly 7,000,000 acres, which are made up much as if the pineries of the Southern States of this country and the forests of some of the Middle Atlantic and Central States were combined. When forestry was begun by Prussia, a great part of the timberland had been injured by recent events that they imply that none but the richest of nations can afford to go to war—and the richest nation does not want war. It is a striking fact in this connection that in the United States at the present time the people use about three times as much timber as the forest grow. If we were everywhere practicing forestry with a resulting improvement equal to that made in Prussia, the forests of this country would be growing as much as we use. The financial returns in Prussia make an even better showing. Net returns per acre in 1850 were twenty-eight cents. In 1865 they were seventy-two cents; in 1900, $1.58; and in 1904, $2.50. They are now nearly ten times more what they were sixty years ago, and they are increas- Government Forests of Prussia Well Managed Prussia has National Forests, covering nearly 7,000,000 acres, which are made up much as if the pineries of the Southern States of this country and the forests of some of the Middle Atlantic and Central States were combined. When forestry was begun by Prussia, a great part of the timberland had been injured by mismanagement, much as American forests have been, and the Prussian foresters had to solve the problem of improving the run-down forests out of the returns from those which were still in good condition. They solved it with striking success. Imense improvement has already taken place and is steadily going on. The method of management adopted calls for a sustained yield—that is, no more wood is cut than the forest produces. Under this management the growth of the forest, and consequently the amount cut, has risen sharply. In 1830 the yield was twenty cubic feet per acre; in 1865, twenty-four cubic feet; in 1890, fifty-two cubic feet, and 1904, sixty-five cubic feet. In other words, Prussian forest management has multiplied the rate of production threefold in seventy-five years. And the quality of the product has improved with the quantity. Between 1830 and 1904 the percentage of saw timber rose from nineteen per cent to fifty-four per CARD OF THANKS The undersigned desire hereby to express their heartfelt thanks to friends and neighbors, as well as the Fraternal Brotherhood, for their acts of kindness and for sympathy expressed in the hour of our recent bereavement consequent upon the death of our dearly beloved brother, George Kaminski, as well as for beautiful flowers.
