The visitors were never a serious factor in the game, although showing a lead of 6 to 4 up to the fifth inning. The locals batted like fiends, getting eighteen safeties, and when to this was added Spencer's great strikeout record of 15, the visitors realized they were up against the real thing. Five of the hits were doubles. Spencer was in great form, allowing six scattered hits The breaking of Chilly Fisher's finger early in the game was the unfortunate feature of a game which was stubbornly contested from start to finish. The locals began scoring in the first, when Valencia sent a two bagger over third. He took third on a wild throw and came home on Schneider's hit to left. In the second Holland was hit by a pitched ball and was out trying to steal second. Lew is grounded out. Huntington hit to left for two bases. Hendricks hit to center, scoring Huntington. Hendricks stole second. Spencer hit to left for a base, advancing Hendricks to third. Fisher hit to left for a single, scoring Hendricks. Valencia ended the inning by striking out. Another score was made in the fifth, when Valencia hit to deep left for two bases. Schneider reached first on an error by Orenas, scoring of the game for several weeks.

Pickups and Throws Spencer struck out 15, and was invincible except in the fifth inning, when he tried to emulate Glenn Curtiss. He steadied after that and showed the visitors what good pitching was like. The locals amassed 18 hits, which is enough to win any game. Schneider led off with three hits out of four times up. Schneider made three hits out of five, and Valencia made a couple of two-baggers. Huntington made a hair-raising running catch in right in the fourth, and Stone duplicated the feat in left in the fifth. Smith played a great game at short for the visitors, and O'Connor proved to be the best catcher seen on the local grounds for several weeks. Stealing second was like committing suicide. The locals play Colegrove on Sunday next, and one of the best games of the season is anticipated. BREA CANYON R Overhauling Olinda in Oil The Brea canyon field is making big dares or east end.

Fisher of the locals suffered a compound fracture of the third finger of the right hand in trying to take a ball from Spencer. The joint was also dislocated, and Chilly beat it to the doctor.

Ern & Goodm Dictators of Low Prices in Orange County— BREA CANYON RICH FIELD Overhauling Olinda in Production of Oil The Brea canyon end of the oil field is making big gains on the Olinda, or east end, in production and general importance. Three years ago the Brea canyon was little account in the opinion of oil men. Murphy had his Brea Canyon Oil Company, with a contract with the Santa Fe, and was making money, but with the exception of the Menges Oil Company, with a small production, it was the only concern in this section. In the east end were the big Santa Fe, Graham-Loftus, Columbia, Puente and Union companies, getting sand and oil. In the course of events Brea canyon progressed. The Orange Oil Company was organized on a lease secured from the old Crown of the Valley Oil Company, which about eight years ago drilled a well 1800 feet deep—pretty deep too for those days—but got no oil and gave it up as a bad job. The Orange Oil Company drilled a successful well near the west end. In the meantime the Fullerton Oil Company bought sixty acres lying directly south of the Orange and was meeting with indifferent results so far as drilling was concerned. When the Orange brought in its No. 1 the Fullerton made a location directly across the line from it and brought in the finest well in that district. It started off at 200 barrels and is now doing about 800 barrels. Another well, No. 6, was drilled close to it and was about as good. A peculiar feature of these two wells was that although only about 200 feet from the Orange well, the formation was entirely different and the sand was not reached until more than 1000 feet below the Orange company's sand and the management thought seriously several times of abandoning the well. But these two wells made the Fullerton Oil Company, and it is now one of the strongest concerns in the field. HOW IS THIS FOR RAIN? Herman Fesenfeld Lives in Country Where It's Damp Herman Fesenfeld sends a copy of the Gray's Harbor (Wash.), News of date January 5, from which the following statistics of rainfall are taken: J. O. Stearns has kept strict tab on the rainfall during the year of 1909 and he states that his records show a rainfall of but 77.19 inches for the 365 days. This falls considerably under the quantity of "dampness" dropped on Grays Harbor according to Aberdeen figures which give the total rainfall as 91.51 inches. The Hoquam records would contradict the claim, as published, that the rainfall for 1909 establishes a new record. "Mr. Stearns measures the rainfall with the most improved instruments. "For January Mr. Stearns' records show the rainfall to have been 11.15 inches; for February, 10.85 inches; for March, 5.87 inches; for April, 1.63 inches; for May, 3.85 inches; for June, 2.21 inches; July, 2.60 inches; August, 1.15 inches; September, 1.50 inches; October, 7.82 inches; November, 21.21 inches; December, 7.30 inches." INCREASED COST OF LIVING Senator Elkins, Home from Abroad, Gives Views Washington, Jan. 8.—"The cost of living is chasing wages and incomes and is going ahead of them in many cases," said Senator Stephen B. Elkins today when asked his reasons for the measure he has introduced in the Senate to investigate the increase in prices in the past ten years and the causes. "The situation has become alarming, and it affects almost the entire American people," he continued. "Therefore I think it is time an inquiry should be set on foot to learn if a remedy can be found. "As to the increased cost of living own ships, and we must come to more economical ways of living. Think how we are wasting money in comparison with the French. You don't see the average Frenchman going traveling for pleasure. The French people live on what we waste." MONEY FOR BRIDGE REPAIRS Supervisors Give Anaheim Road District a Bit of a Lift The board of supervisors met in special session on Monday morning. At the last meeting of the board funds were distributed to road districts to allow the supervisors funds to draw from in making repairs of damage done during the recent storm. Supervisor Linebarger learned that the greatest damage in his district was done in the Anaheim road district, where roads were cut and the bridge between Anaheim and Olive was damaged. That there might be more money in that road district, appropriations made to La Habra, Fullerton and Buena Park districts were cancelled and $1400 in all is now transferred to the Anaheim road district. Supervisor Linebarger was given permission to spend in excess of $300 in repairing the Anaheim Olive bridge. Supervisor McMullen was given similar permission for repairing bridges south of Orange, at Villa Park and at Yorba. Bids were called for stationery supplies for the county, bids to be opened Jan. 18. The rate for county advertising was left as it was in 1909. The board adjourned to Jan. 18. Mission Stables Cor. Lemon and Oak Sts W. B.

Clark have returned to the steam laundry, and in consequence the institution is working overtime to keep up with orders. Mrs. Clark is personally in charge of all laundry work, and her competency is such that nothing but praise is heard on all sides of the character of the work turned out. They retain an interest in the enterprise, and are rapidly building it up as one of the best steam laundries in Southern California. The Santa Ana laundry having withdrawn its delivery wagon, the local institution is filling all orders with neatness and dispatch. A dozen hands are employed, and more will be added to keep up with the orders, which are increasing daily. If our people will patronize home industry they will help build up the town. Success to the steam laundry. “As to the increased cost of living congress at least can find out some of the causes and make them known. What those causes are I am not prepared to say. For one thing, we are living in an age of extravagance. “American tourists take $110,000,-000 abroad every year. They spend much of it in luxury and extravagance. Laborers send back to the old country every year $100,000,000. We send $50,000,000 out of the country every year for Christmas presents. Altogether we pay out in one way and another in actual money which goes abroad about $500,000,-000 every year. In ten years this means $5,000,000,000. “This drain is doubtless one of the causes of the increasing cost of living and the failure of wages to keep pace; and there are many contributory causes. We must own our supplies for the county, bids to be opened Jan. 18. The rate for county advertising was left as it was in 1909. The board adjourned to Jan. 18.” Mission Stables Cor.
