BONDS FOR STREET PAVING CITY TRUSTEES WANT MONEY FOR INTERSECTIONS Voters Will Be Asked to Approve Amount sufficient for the Purpose—Residents of Lemon Street Petition for Tungsten Lamps—Lemon Street to Be Opened South A bond election in an amount sufficient to pave street intersections on Center street west of Los Angeles was ordered called by the city trustees at their meeting on Thursday evening. Property owners have signed for paving for a considerable extent on West Center street, and it is believed Walnut street will be also paved south from Center street, possibly as far as the southeastern municipal limits. The city has paid $7300 for paving intersections on East Center and Los Angeles streets, as well as in front of the public library and city hall. At a recent meeting of the Merchants' Association an agreement was reached asking the city trustees to call an election for bonds for paving intersections on West Center street. The matter was presented to the board by F. C. Spencer. The trustees approved the without running it on that thoroughfare. Petitioners desire to pave, and are opposed to tearing up the pavement for sewers which may be constructed later. It was the sense of the board that the sewer would not be constructed on West Center St., but that it would be built west along the side streets. Trustee Gates reported that the Edison company has a pole standing in the sidewalk at the corner of Lemon and Oak streets. It was ordered removed. The street was also ordered drained. Engineer Steward reported that palm trees set out by Tim Carroll, fronting his property on West Center street are some of them six inches inside the curb line. He stated Mr. Carroll would like to build the curb on the outside of the trees. The matter was referred to the committee on public improvements. Mr. Nebelung addressed the board in regard to opening of Bush street, asking that the same be opened. The matter was referred to the public improvements committee. Dr. Beebe addressed the board in reference to Third street south, running from Palm to Lemon. The doctor showed that the street is within 130 feet of Broadway, and asked the opinion of the board relative to narrowing the street and converting it into an alley. He made the request The city has paid $7300 for paving intersections on East Center and Los Angeles streets, as well as in front of the public library and city hall. At a recent meeting of the Merchants' Association an agreement was reached asking the city trustees to call an election for bonds for paving intersections on West Center street. The matter was presented to the board by F. C. Spencer. The trustees approved the proposition, and instructed City Attorney Melrose and City Engineer Steward to prepare the necessary resolution and plans for the work. The amount of bonds is not stated, but inasmuch as the general fund is depleted by payments already made for paving street intersections, the amount may include funds for replenishing the city treasury. The election will probably be held early in the new year. Trustees Rust, Fiscus, Stock and Gates were present. Trustee Kroeger was absent on business. Superintendent of Streets Steadman reported he had appointed Hiram Bowen city teamster in place of the late Frank Wommer. The finance committee reported approval of demands against the city amounting to $368.10. The demand of the Fairchild paving company for paving street intersections, amounting to $2583.25, was laid over to the next regular meeting. Trustee Stock of the public improvements committee reported favorably upon the closing of Elizabeth street in the Villa tract, provided a street running east and west through the tract be opened. The street ordered closed runs north and south. Engineer Steward submitted plans for paving Hermine street, and the same were adopted. City Attorney Melrose submitted a resolution of intention ordering the paving done on that street, and the same was adopted. Building permits were granted as follows: A. Muckenthaler, to construct a frame barn on Resh street, costing $1000, was granted. B. W. Fletcher, $40 frame barn in rear of his residence on Melrose St. Alexander Henry, residence on East Broadway. Applications for permits to erect hitching posts were received from B. G. Schlosser, Frank L. Nemetz and H. H. Gardner & Co. The same were granted. Mr. Neberling addressed the board in regard to opening of Bush street, asking that the same be opened. The matter was referred to the public improvements committee. Dr. Beebe addressed the board in reference to Third street south, running from Palm to Lemon. The doctor showed that the street is within 130 feet of Broadway, and asked the opinion of the board relative to narrowing the street and converting it into an alley. He made the request because of reports current that such action might be taken. City Attorney Melrose stated he knew of no law whereby a street could be narrowed, and the matter went over without action. THE ROOST FELL DOWN A Shot at 3 In the Morning Awakens Neighborhood The commotion all came about by the falling of an overcrowded henroost, but while the excitement lasted it was sufficient to suit the tastes of the most fastidious. It all came about by the firing of a pistol shot on Philadelphia street at 3 o'clock the other morning. A gentleman, whose barnyard had received a large addition of broilers for the holiday market was awakened by a commotion among the fowls. Such a cackling and tempestuous going on he had never heard. He threw open his window. There could be no mistake. Hen thieves were about. The chickens cackling to beat the band. Something was wrong. It was too dark to determine whether thieves were about, but a pistol shot fired at the henhouse awoke the neighborhood if it did not do anything else. A neighbor jumped out of bed and ran out into the street barefooted. No burglars were about. The man with the gun was out at the henhouse ready to do all kinds of execution to thieves, should any be about. There was nothing doing, and the barefoot man went back to bed. He takes no stock in the Kneipp cure. The next morning it was found out that the commotion was caused by the falling of the henroost, which had been overcrowded on account of the increased number of chickens seeking to obtain lodgings upon it. All the same, hen thieves had better keep away from the neighborhood. The gun has several loads in it yet.

Donohoe asking that an ordinance be adopted closing Elizabeth street, and likewise an alley in the Villa tract, and enclosing a check for $50 in payment of the same. Granted, provided they would submit a map for adoption showing a street in the tract running east and west before Elizabeth street shall be closed. The petitioners to hear all expense connected with the matter. Petition from Frank Shanley, Conrad Stuckle, Louisa Boege, John Ziegler and others, requesting that Tungsten lamps be installed on Lemon street between Broadway and South street. The petition was granted provided petitioners pay cost of lamps and installing. Petition from Frank Shanley, Jas. Wool, M. H. Litten and others asking that Lemon street be widened a uniform width of sixty feet between Santa Ana and South street, and to take proceedings to open Lemon St. to Broad. The petition was granted, and the city attorney authorized to draw the necessary resolution of intention, and City Engineer Steward to prepare the plans necessary for the widening. Petition of Dr. J. L. Beebe, P. Stoffel Jr. and others, asking for an expression from the board as to whether a suitable location for a sewer on West Center street can be found There was nothing doing, and the barefoot man went back to bed. He takes no stock in the Kneipp cure. The next morning it was found out that the commotion was caused by the falling of the henroost, which had been overcrowded on account of the increased number of chickens seeking to obtain lodgings upon it. All the same, hen thieves had better keep away from the neighborhood. The gun has several loads in it yet. FIFTH ANNUAL REUNION Class of 05 Guests at Home of Mr. and Mrs. Borth The class of '05 of the Anaheim high held their fifth annual reunion at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Borth, on Tuesday evening, Dec. 28th. Letters were received from Miss Mary Watson from Alaska where she holds a government position; H. Pellegrin also wrote an interesting letter about his great work in the Y.M.C.A. at Occidental college. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. F. Borth, Mr. and Mrs. M. Skinner, Elsa Christen, Clara Fisher, Ernest Clabaugh, Walter Mickle, Leonard Evans, Herman Christenson, Dr. J. O. Schwenkert. After an elaborate banquet the jolly bunch went down the street practicing their former class yells. HOLIDAY BUSINESS GOOD Town merchants report record holiday business in all lines. Extra forces of clerks were made necessary, and Friday's business trade probably the heaviest in the history of the town. This was due in large part to the throngs of purchasers who filled the stores from early to late, and as well to the larger stocks carried by merchants. The present week's business is also lively.

Were you ever tied up in a washout? Did you ever think what a complete little world there is on a through train or steamer? Well, go and get that experience—and you will be the better for it. Just stop three days at the Needles, tied up by a washout in front, and another behind you, and see how well acquainted you will be with your fellow-passengers, and everybody else that will serve to draw you away from yourself. And you will find after all, that you are not the only pebble on the sandbar. That your trials and troubles are very small when compared with those of some others. The jolliest one of the lot was a man who had been six months in the hospital, from being crushed between two cars. Talk about Mark Tapley, well, he wasn't in it a little bit. Why that man would laugh just in the belief that the next governor ought to be from Southern California, and he is also decidedly of the opinion that if the south gets behind a candidate, he will be nominated. Regarding the use of his name as a candidate, Mr. Stanton said: "It is going to be up to the people, under the new direct primary; and I certainly am not going out hunting for the nomination with a brass band. I want to see Southern California get the governorship; and if the leading republicans in this part of the state think I am the man to enter the race from this section, I might do so, though it would be at the sacrifice of my private interests. If they can unite on some other man from this end of the state more easily, that is all right; in that case, I will do my part to help him." "My course as speaker was such that the people know that I should be independent of faction and fair to all parts of this great commonwealth. I have no axes to grind and no personal ambitions to serve. If I were governor, my aim would be to give the state a clean, progressive and businesslike administration. That is all I have to say at this time." STATE SUPERINTENDENT HERE Hon. E. F. Hyatt Visits St. Catherine's Orphanage PYTHIAN'S TO BE INITIATED TWO HUNDRED MEMBERS WILL JOIN LODGE Three Hundred Knights Coming from Los Angeles on Special Train—Exercises Will Consume All of Last Night of Old Year—Big Banquet Two hundred Knights of Pythian will be initiated into the new lodge to be organized here on Friday evening. A special train bearing 300 Knights will arrive from Los Angeles at 7:45, and newly-elected officers will be installed by Col. Owens of Los Angeles, chief organizer, assisted by members of Los Angeles and Santa Ana lodges. The special train will leave Los Angeles at 7 o'clock and will make the run here in 45 minutes. The visitors will be met by local members, with the Anaheim and Fullerton brassbands, and will be escorted to Odd Fellows' hall, where the festivities will occur. The work of initiation and installation will commence the entire evening, and it is expected the sun will peep over the Santiago mountains for the first time in the New Year before the work is over. The newly elected officers of the lodge are: your fellow-passengers, and everybody else that will serve to draw you away from yourself. And you will find after all, that you are not the only pebble on the sandbar. That your trials and troubles are very small when compared with those of some others. The jolliest one of the lot was a man who had been six months in the hospital, from being crushed between two cars. Talk about Mark Tapley, well, he wasn't in it a little bit. Why, that man would laugh just to hear the rest of us kick; and his nurse did enjoy the heat so, wrapping herself in those Navajo blankets just to see him laugh. And she even went shopping in the Needles, and told the clerks their prices were too high—as if anything could be too high when one lived at the Needles to sell it. And the young couple who received a telegram from Indiana of a death in the family, at half past 8 on Friday morning, sold their furniture, packed and shipped the rest of their belongings, and took our train at Pomona at ten thirty that night, hoping to reach home in time for the funeral, only to be delayed three days at the Needles. It was hard, but they didn't growl as much as the young man going only to Alberquerque, who foolishly made a vow that if they would get him out of Needles, he would stop kicking—and thereby lost all his pleasure for the rest of the journey. And then we had another young man going to his sister's funeral in Chicago, and the delay made it useless for him to go on, so he left us when we reached San Bernardino. So also did two Catholic priests, who were too tired to continue on with us, but preferred to start again later. Thankful perhaps for the delay was a convicted prisoner, being taken to Kentucky to serve 21 years for murder; the old Kentucky officer who had him in charge was not so thankful, but he was a good story teller, and whiled away many tedious hours for his fellow passengers. And he told those stories with that inimitable drollness, so characteristic of the old southern gentleman. And his California colleague, who had never been out of the state—he guessed he never would get out of California. But he did. I wonder what he saw that most impressed him on his trip? Then the father and mother taking the body of their child back to Flagstaff to be buried at their old home; making independent of fact and law to all parts of this great commonwealth. I have no axes to grind and no personal ambitions to serve. If I were governor, my aim would be to give the state a clean, progressive and business like administration. That is all I have to say at this time." STATE SUPERINTENDENT HERE Hon. E. F. Hyatt Visits St. Catherine's Orphanage Hon. E. F. Hyatt, state superintendent of public instruction, arrived in town from Sacramento on Wednesday of last week on a visit to St. Catherine's orphanage. After inspecting the books and accounts of the orphanage he spoke in terms of high praise of the institution, and paid a warm tribute to the Dominican Sisters who are caring for 160 boys under the age of 14 years. He noted with satisfaction the new buildings now in course of erection, and said the orphanage will soon be able to care for twice the number of the present roll. "Our orphan institutions are to my mind the cheapest and best method of rearing these wards of the state. As compared with other state charges these orphanages are very inexpensive. For instance, the students at Whittier, Ione and other state schools impose charges of $27 per month for each ward therein contained, while the cost per person at penal institutions is $36. The orphans cost the state only $8. The first two items are exclusive of salaries paid officials of these institutions, while the latter embraces all cost which the state is put to for caring for orphans and half orphans. "Deaths are rare in all of these institutions, but the tender years of the orphans, many of them being babes in arms, makes this showing all the more satisfactory. "I am told that while your public schools had to be dismissed last summer because of measles, not a single case of this sickness occurred at the orphanage. This is a very flattering testimonial to the care given the orphans by the Sisters." Mr. Hyatt recently issued a statement of the growth of the public schools in this state, which was published in these columns. He said California had the best system of education in the country, and its teachers stand at the head of their profession. The visitors will be met by local members, with the Anaheim and Fullerton brassbands, and will be escorted to Odd Fellows' hall, where the festivities will occur. The work of initiation and installation will continue the entire evening, and it is expected the sun will peep over the Santiago mountains for the first time in the New Year before the work is over. The newly elected officers of the lodge are: Richard Melrose, chancellor commander; V. U. Simpson, vice-chancellor commander; P. H. Krick, prelate; C. Idlor, master of workmen; Edgar Hartung, keeper of records and seal; Gerald Sandilands, master of exchequer; N. B. Tedford, master at arms; A. E. Barmes, inside guard; O. Lagerman, outside guard; J. O. Royer, B.V. Beebe, W. M. Rose, A. S. Bradford past chancellors. A banquet for 500 people is being provided by the following members: of the order: F. C. Spencer, V. U. Simpson, V. A. Holbrook, Walter Amstutz and W. F. Schumacher. All persons desiring to join the new lodge are requested to hand in their names to W. M. Rose. Word comes by underground wire that the goat, appalled at the prodigious task before him, has broken for the hills, and a committee is now scouring the higher altitudes in search of him. MAKES WAR ON BUG Orange County Horticultural Commissioner Gets Hints from Santa Paula County Horticultural Commissioner Roy K. Bishop has returned from Santa Paula, where he went to investigate gate the methods being used there to fight the mealy bug, a citrus-fruit pest that has gained a strong foothold in a number of orchards. Bishop has received a report to the effect that there is a spot or two of the pest at Fullerton. He will go there to determine what shall be done. Bishop says that the pest offers an unusual problem, for the reason that the usual killer made from cyanide, water and sulphuric acid, seems to have no effect upon it. He curls up when the gas hits him, and no matter how big the dose he seems to unloosen in a few hours and continues his crawling. In the Blanchard orchid street, run.

Stanton of Los Angeles, speaker of the assembly, was in Riverside on business some days ago and talked quite freely on the political situation to a representative of the Press. Mr. Stanton is very firm summer because of measles, not a single case of this sickness occurred at the orphanage. This is a very flattering testimonial to the care given the orphans by the Sisters." Mr. Hyatt recently issued a statement of the growth of the public schools in this state, which was published in these columns. He said California had the best system of education in the country, and its teachers stand at the head of their profession. He formerly taught school at Leralta, and was elected to office from Riverside county. He is an enthusiastic arboriculturist, and his recent pamphlet on beautifying school grounds by planting shade trees attracted wide attention. HANDSOME PRESENT Mr. Dickel Gets Roll-Top Desk from Employes Herman Dickel was presented with a roll-top office desk by his employees as a Christmas gift. As the store was about to be closed on Friday evening, after one of the heaviest day's business in the history of the store, the proprietor was politely informed his employees had a word to say to him in the office. The desk had been placed in the office, and proved to be a most appropriate gift. Frank Tausch, head salesman, made the presentation speech, while the force of employes gathered about Mr. Dickel accepted the gift in the spirit in which it was tendered, thanking them heartily and adding a word of praise in behalf of the faithful men they had been while in his employ. Earlier in the evening Mr. Dickel made his usual Christmas gift to each of his nine employes. A bright $10 gold piece was presented each, in token of appreciation for their labors while in his employ during the year. Bishop says that the pest offers an unusual problem, for the reason that the usual killer made from cyanide, water and sulphuric acid, seems to have no effect upon it. He curled up when the gas hits him, and no matter how big the dose he seems to unloosen in a few hours and continue his crawling. In the Blanchard orchard at Santa Paula an experiment was tried by giving a big seedling tree remarkably big dose, 140 ounces of cornide being used in making the gas when thirty-five or forty would have done on other occasions for other pests. This was applied under double tent. A mule that stood just outside the tent was killed, but the mealy bug weathered the brew. "A ladybird is doing good work against the bug," said Bishop, "and if she stands the winter she will do great work. If I find the bug at Fullerton I shall send at once for some of the ladybirds propagated by the state commission. "The mealy bug has been in the county at times in the past, but has never amounted to much in Orange county. It did no great harm at Santa Paula until two years ago. Those trees affected lost as much as half their crop. I expect no spread of the pest in this county."

After the minutes of the previous meeting had been read President Mills reported that it had recently come to his knowledge that certain firms were shipping oranges into this county and reshipping them as Orange-county products in order to get the benefit of the higher prices commanded by our superior fruit; also that oranges were being shipped from here to neighboring points, re-labelled and sent to market, thus giving those places the reputation of growing the high grade fruit. After considerable discussion it was decided to refer the matter to the Associated Chambers of Commerce and make an effort to put a stop to the practice.
