A. Cook of Los Angeles have been visiting at the home of L. W. Allen. They returned to the city Monday. Mrs. Milo Allen entertained the Methodist Ladies' Aid society Wednesday afternoon. Mrs. Reyburn had as guests for the day last Friday Mrs. S. H. Finley of Santa Ana and Mrs. Hedges of Los Angeles. Dr. J. L. Pitner, district superintendent, is expected here Saturday afternoon to preside at the first quarterly conference of the M. E. church. Miss Imogene Tillotson of Santa Clare greeting for his acquaintances as before the good news came. And here's hoping it proves true—that Fred is "it" this time and gets the money. The only notice of his good fortune received so far is in an advertisement appearing in a Los Angeles paper a few days ago, asking for information or "present address of W. F. Willis, formerly of Fort Edward, N. Y., who is heir to $25,000." The address of attorneys seeking the information, whose office is in Syracuse, N. Y., is given. The last named city is the home of wealthy relatives of Mr. Willis, whose birth occurred in Fort Edward.

Mrs. Reyburn had as guests for the day last Friday Mrs. S. H. Finley of Santa Ana and Mrs. Hedges of Los Angeles. Dr. J. L. Pitner, district superintendent, is expected here Saturday afternoon to preside at the first quarterly conference of the M. E. church. Miss Imogene Tillotson of Santa Ana was a guest over Sunday of Miss Genevieve Carner. Mrs. M. Waters has returned to her home at Prescott, Ariz., after a visit here with Mrs. J. Carner. William Schnitker and wife have returned from a three months' trip to the east, during which relatives were visited in Wisconsin and Iowa. T. J. Wilkie, state secretary for the county Y.M.C.A. work, with headquarters in Los Angeles, was here a couple of days this week in the interest of local Y.M.C.A. work. Albert Johnston of Los Angeles, owner of a fifty-acre ranch opposite the property of Senator Jones,northwest of the Grove, is having a new house built on the place and making other improvements. The work of building was begun the first of this week, and is under direction of Joseph Johnston, who will occupy the house and have charge of the place when the improvements are completed. Artesia has a school building thirty-five years old, referred to by its local newspaper as "the poorest excuse for a school building that can be found in the county." Garden Grove citizens will endorse the further statement that "all the progressive places have nice modern structures of which they can be proud," and we hope the move for a suitable new building at Artesia will be successful. C. P. Hazy, a sugar-factory employee at Los Alamitos, was taken to a Los Angeles hospital a few days ago, suffering from appendicitis. Mr. and Mrs. George Rolfe have returned from a pleasant trip north, during which they visited relatives in Oakland. His friends here, including members of the Baptist church and many others, have received with sincere regret the announcement by Rev. A. L. Paquette of his resignation as pastor at Garden Grove. He has accepted vertisement appearing in a Los Angeles paper a few days ago, asking for information or "present address of W. F. Willis, formerly of Fort Edward, N. Y., who is heir to $25,000." The address of attorneys seeking the information, whose office is in Syracuse, N. Y., is given. The last named city is the home of wealthy relatives of Mr. Willis, whose birth occurred in Fort Edward. His boyhood was spent in that place, but when a young man he came to California in 1882. Letters to his relatives in the old home have been somewhat irregular, but about eight years ago he was there for a visit, returning to Los Angeles. For three years past he has been located at Garden Grove, busy at his trade, an industrious and competent workman and a good citizen. Mr. Willis, whose attention was directed to the ad. by a friend, has forwarded his address, and thinks there is no question as to his being the party sought, but as yet has received no further information. He is not worrying, however, but is giving the same careful attention to business as usual, and perhaps devoting some quiet study to plans for the future which he would not care to make public at present. That he will make wise use of the money there is no reason to doubt, and we offer congratulations now to the girl who shall win—or perhaps has won—his favor. Among many wise and practical ideas helping to protect the young from harmful influence and to elevate the standard of purity in life and character, there have been few such plans evolved by the W.C.T.U. of more practical value than its annual custom of holding a public reception for the teachers of the public schools. This occurs each year in every locality where the W.C.T.U.has an active organization, and such a reception was given Wednesday night for teachers of the Garden Grove schools. The affair was under direction of Mrs. Beardsley and Mrs. Harper, officers of the local Union, and needless to say it was a complete success. There was a good attendance on the part of patrons of the school and the public, in response to the general invitation previously given. Light refreshments provided by the W.C.T.U. were enjoyed and an entertaining program was given, the principal features being addresses by County Supt. R. P. Mitchell and Mrs. E. B. Oakley of Santa About $900 nets and plums at 6:30 o'clock fire in Miss Establishment.

W. F. Crawf ing as the res e in a fig tree alimb broke on his head ar were broken.of the acciden Mr. and Mrs. George Rolfe have returned from a pleasant trip north, during which they visited relatives in Oakland. His friends here, including members of the Baptist church and many others, have received with sincere regret the announcement by Rev. A. L. Paquette of his resignation as pastor at Garden Grove. He has accepted a call to Rivera and will take up the work there at once, moving to that place with his family within a few days. Mr. Paquette is an able preacher, a faithful minister of the Word, and the church at Rivera is to be congratulated. No arrangements have been made as yet by the church here regarding his successor as pastor. Bernard W. Andrew, who left here three months ago by wagon, writes from Lakeview, Oregon, where he is now located, to J. M. Woodruff, giving some interesting details of his trip and expressing kind remembrance of his friends in this vicinity. He mentions many pleasant features of the long overland journey, and some attractions of climate and other conditions in his present location, but confesses to a mild attack of the "blues" after arrival there, and says he has concluded to make no investment in property there at present. Their daughter, the youngest child, was quite sick when he wrote. His letter indicates that a location farther north will be sought next spring but they expect to remain at Lakeview during the winter. Some people would feel "stuck-up" if notified that an inheritance of twenty-five thousand dollars was awaiting their application for the money, but W. F. Willis, the local painter, known to everybody in Garden Grove as "Fred," has the same friend Judgment was given by a jury in the Superior Court for $401.25 in the civil action of F. L. Stearns against W. A. Zimmerman. Attorney J. P. Clark of Los Angeles appeared for the plaintiff and Attorney Keech for the defendant. A year ago Zimmerman, a San Juan Capistrano rancher, got a gas engine from the Stearns company of Los Angeles. The engine did not do the work Zimmerman expected of it, and it was shipped back Stearns insisted that Zimmerman should retain the engine, and brought suit, with the result that judgment was entered as stated. There was lively bidding in the superior court between two real estate agents, representing capital that wanted to buy a corner at Seventh and Valencia streets, Los Angeles, from the estate of Dr. S. S. Wood. The property sold for $25,650, or $3150 higher than the figure first re- ported to the court by the executor, W. H. H. Clayton of Orange, as the highest price offered. The property is lot 2, block 9, Fairmont tract. Mr. Clayton in his report of sale stated that John Ferbert had offered $22,500 for it. Under the law, Judge West asked if there was any one who would raise the bid 10 per cent. C. H. Parent responded with a bid of $25,000. Ferbert raised him $100, and Parent came back with a like raise. The property finally went to Ferbert for $25,650. The court confirmed the sale by the estate of Wesley-avenue property, Los Angeles, to Alice G. Harrison for $16,000. A jury in Justice Smithwick's court brought in a verdict of not guilty in the case of James Robb of Los Angeles, charged with cruelty to animals. Robb was alleged to have had charge of twenty hogs on the Irvine company ranch last August, and to have let them die for want of water. His defense was that he had not been told by the foreman of the ranch that it was necessary to turn the water on, and that he did not know the hogs were without water. Mrs. Emma Hubbard has begun a suit for divorce against Mortimer Hubbard. A year ago Hubbard sued, but within a short time dismissed the action. Clinton Crawford, a Tustin rancher, miraculously escaped death at 11:45 o'clock on Monday morning. Had he been a second sooner in approaching the Santa Fe crossing on First street he and his automobile would have run in front of the north-bound passenger train. Crawford was almost on the track before he saw the train pulling into the yards a short distance away. He put on the brakes and the front part of the engine just missed the machine, but the steps caught it and whirled it lengthwise. The Toggery 111 W. Center St., Anaheim.

About $900 worth of women's bonets and plumage went up in smoke at 6:30 o'clock Monday morning in a fire in Miss Ruth Taylor's millinery establishment. The fire started from an overheated stove, in which Will Merigold, who was sweeping out the store, had burned some trash. Waste material near the stove caught and the flames spread to shelves containing boxes of straws, Leghorn hats and ostrich plumes. Art goods owned by Merigold Bros. were slightly damaged. The loss is covered by insurance. Since July 1st the county clerk has issued 1790 hunters' licenses, which is more than for the twelve months of 1908-09. John W. Lowe, a pioneer of Santa Ana, died at Barstow on Monday, and the remains were buried here Wednesday. He came here thirty-four years ago. Miguel Yorba on Tuesday gave a $1000 bond as constable of the San Juan township, with Albert Pryor and J. O. Forster as sureties. The sum of $4000 has been raised by ranchers along the Santa Ana river to be expended within the next two months in building dikes and cleaning out the channel of the river from Seventeenth street south, to the head of the Talbert drainage ditch. This money will be paid back at some time in the future if the courts uphold the validity of the organization of the Newbert protection district. The directors of the organization passed a resolution promising to make the return. W. F. Crawford of Tustin is suffering as the result of a fall. He was in a fig tree picking the fruit when a limb broke. He struck the ground on his head and shoulders. No bones were broken. The peculiar feature of the accident is that the man can cumstances, and taking a different view of the case than that held by Dist.-Atty. Davis of Orange county, filed a brief as amicus curiae. FULLERTON There is a good demand in the east now for California tomatoes, and heavy shipments are being made from Fullerton district. Two weeks ago local buyers were paying $20 a ton, last week the price was $25 a ton. This week they are paying $30 a ton. Last week tomatoes were shipped as follows from Fullerton in carload lots: California vegetable union 5, Cobb 3, Pacific vegetable company 1. The first-named company has so far shipped 17 carloads. Other local shipments are reported as follows, in carloads, from the place during the last week: Oranges, Placentia association 2, Chapman 5, Citrus union 2, Benchley 4, Strain 1. Walnuts, Fullerton-Placentia association 7, Golden belt fruit company 6, Rhulman 1, Stern & Goodman 1. A. V. Smith, a well-known resident of this city, and Mrs. Mary Munger of Pasadena returned on Monday from San Diego, where they were married a few days ago, surprising their many friends. Mr. Smith will at once erect a $4000 residence here. UNCLAIMED LETTERS Joe Batiller, B. T. Ballard, Mrs. Marta Y. Ginera, W. C.

SMITH SEES NO SMOKE SMITH SEES NO SMOKE Horizon Clear In Valley for Man of the Mountain Congressman Smith, who spent last week in the southern part of the state, returned Sunday morning with what amounts almost to assurance that he will have no opposition for renomination as the republican candidate for representative from the eighth congressional district next summer. On Friday night he attended the "Boosters Banquet," given under the auspices of the San Diego chamber of commerce, at which were some 300 representative men of that city and a resolution tendering him their support was unanimously carried. Assurances of like support were given him in both Orange and Riverside, and while the nomination is still nearly a year off it appears likely that there will be no opposition. At least none is in sight now. Mr. Smith was at Riverside during the president's visit to that city.—Bakersfield Echo.
