BONANZA WATER STRIKE
New Well at Union Brewery a Capital Prize
The management of the Union Brewery Co. of Anaheim is highly elated over the results of a new ten-inch well put down on their property last week. L. W. Rains, an expert borer, who has sunk some of the best wells in this section of the country for the past eighteen years, pronounces it the best job he has ever tackled. The well has ten-inch casing, and is 120 feet deep with 34 feet of water-bearing gravel, 22 feet being extra coarse. At a depth of 94 feet one rock weighing twelve pounds was brought to the surface, with many more nearly as large—the best of all indications for pure water. The well is estimated to throw a stream of 100 miners' inches.
Samples of the water from the old well, which is but twenty feet from the new one, and in the same strata, were sent to Wahl & Heines brewing academy of Chicago; Siebel's Zymotechnic institute of Milwaukee, and Hantke's brewers school and laboratories for analysis. The test in each and every case showed the water to be of the purest quality, the report stating that a brewery with such water on the premises from which to make beer was a bonanza.
Further proof as to the purity of the water, is that in twenty-two years the same tubes in the boilers have been in use, there being practically no scale whatsoever at the cleaning required by law.
The water of this strata is of such superior quality that the S. P. railroad has put down a well at the Loara station which it uses entirely for its engines between Los Angeles and Santa Ana and the spur to Los Alamitos.
Anaheim beer is in such demand

BONANZA WATER STRIKE
New Well, which is but twenty feet from the new one, and in the same strata, were sent to Wahl & Heines brewing academy of Chicago; Siebel's Zymotechnic institute of Milwaukee; and Hantke's brewer school and laboratory for analysis. The test in each and every case showed that a brewer with such water on the premises from which to make beer was a bonanza.
Further proof as to the purity of the water, is that in twenty-two years the same tubes in the boilers have been in use, there being practically no scale whatsoever at the cleaning required by law.

Anaheim beer is in such demand that an extra force has been put on, it being found necessary to work at nights and Sundays to keep up with orders. Three carloads of the local company's product are shipped to Los Angeles every week. One thousand dollars' worth of new machinery has just been installed.
A recent test of beers by the pure food law inspectors gives but three breweries credit of coming up in all respects to the requirements, and the Union Brewing company of Anaheim is one of them, a very flattering recommendation indeed.
LAYMEN'S MISSIONARY SUPPER
The men of the Presbyterian church are to have a missionary supper on Wednesday evening, May 18. After supper Mr. Paul of Los Angeles and Dr. Atterbury of Pasadena will address the men on the subject of missions.
The object is to enlist the men in the Laymen's missionary movement, and through the church secure larger offerings to the work of missions.
A cordial invitation is extended to the men of the Methodist and Christian churches to be present and catch some of the inspiration of the occasion.
Supper will be served at 7 o'clock at 25 cents per plate. All men who propose to attend are requested to purchase their tickets in advance or send in their names to Rev. Miller, Mr. Wickett or George Ross not later than Sunday, the 15th, that the committee may know how many to provide for.
FELL TO HER DEATH
Aged Lady Found Lifeless at Foot of Cellar Stair
Mrs. Egbert Smith fell down stairs and was killed instantly near Santa Ana on Friday night. The accident occurred at the home of her daughter, Mrs. D. F. Campbell on Fairhaven avenue, northeast of Santa Ana, shortly before 9 o'clock on Saturday night. The body was found at 6 o'clock next morning in the cellar.
A complaint was received from O. H. Schumacher in regard to the waste water that has been damaging his property. Claim was made for the amount of $3325, the alleged damage to crops in November, 1909, and in April, 1910. The matter was referred to the ditch committee to report upon.
Applications on file for the transfer of stock were on motion granted.
Mr. Hadsell, representing eastern capitalists, who are considering the erection of a sugar factory at Anaheim, appeared before the board and stated that during the operation of their plant they would have a continuous flow of 250 or 300 miners inches of water that could be used for irrigation purposes. After serving its purpose the water would be put through a certain process that would leave it practically clear. Mr. Hadsell wished to know if this company could use this water. No final action was taken in the matter, but he was assured that it could be used if delivered in the condition mentioned, in the daytime, during the months of July, August and September.
On motion the meeting adjourned.

DELHI DRAINAGE
Farmers Taking Steps to Prevent Lands from Overflow
Engineer S. H. Finley has prepared specifications on which contractors may figure for presenting bids to the Delhi Drainage District for the construction of the ditches of the district. Bids are to be received on May 21 by the board of directors of the drainage district.
For the purpose of bidding, the engineer and directors have divided the district into fifteen sections. Bids may be put in for each section, for any number of sections or for the whole job.
It is probable that the contract will be let this month, and work will begin soon afterward. The 7000 acres of the Delhi drainage district will be reclaimed. The ditches will take the surplus water to the head of Newport Bay.
While the drainage district is getting ready to let contracts for building its ditches, its neighbors to the west, owners of some 3000 acres, between the Delhi district and the Santa Ana river, are preparing to form a new drainage district. This district will take away the surplus water in old Newport district. Theentrance from A. L. Porter and C. C. Wagner, were on motion granted.

Aged Lady Found Lifeless at Foot of Cellar Stair
Mrs. Egbert Smith fell down stairs and was killed instantly near Santa Ana on Friday night. The accident occurred at the home of her daughter, Mrs. D. F. Campbell on Fairhaven avenue, northeast of Santa Ana, shortly before 9 o'clock on Saturday night. The body was found at 6 o'clock next morning in the cellar, into which Mrs. Smith fell.
Mrs. Smith's home was in Los Angeles with her husband. For the last two months she had been visiting her daughter, Mrs. Campbell. The family had retired, excepting Mrs. Smith, who went to the bathroom to take a bath. Leading from the bathroom is a hallway, near the end of which are two doors, one leading up stairs, and where Mrs. Smith's bedroom was, and the other into the cellar. Evidently, she mistook the cellar door for the one to the upstairs. She was found at the foot of the cellar stairs, dead from the injuries received in the fall. A wound in the back of the head probably produced death.
ARMY RECRUITS
Vancouver Barracks, Wash., May 9 — Your Uncle Sam is getting fastidious. Recent rules issued by the war department setting out the candidates for the military that are desirable, indicate that Uncle Sam does not want men for soldiers who are not reasonably handsome and well built.

FIRE CONTROL OF FOREST
Agreement Between Secretary of Agriculture and Northern Railroads
Secretary Wilson has signed a memorandum of agreement with the Great Northern Railway Company, and also one with the Northern Pacific Railway Company, which provides for cooperation of the Forest Service and the railroads to prevent damage to the National Forests from fires along all lines operated by these railroads. These agreements had already been signed by R. I. Farrington, vice-president of the Great Northern, and Howard Elliott, president of the Northern Pacific, so that they are, by the signature of the secretary of agriculture, now in force.
The agreements have in view both the reduction to the lowest point of the fire risk from the operation of the railroads and joint action by the forest service and the railroads to fight all fires which may start along the lines. The companies agree to clear and keep clear of inflammable material a strip of varying width, as conditions may demand, up to 200 feet beyond the right of way, and to provide all locomotives which do not burn oil with suitable spark arresters and other standard equipment to prevent the dropping of fire. It is also stipulated that every effort will be made by the companies to operate their locomotives so as not to cause fires. The protective strip is to be designated jointly by representatives of the railroad and the forest service.
In fighting fires the railroads and the forest service will cooperate very closely. Prompt notification to forest officers of all fires discovered by employees of the railroads is provided for. Telephone lines to make this possible will be put up by the forest service, using the company's poles where this is desirable. Warning
RICHARD O'NEAL DEAD
Well-Known Pioneer Passes Away at Advanced Age
Richard O'Neal, one of the best known pioneers of the state, and until recently the owner of one of the largest ranches in the United States, died shortly before midnight Friday evening at his home on the Santa Margarita ranch near Oceanside.
Three years ago he was operated on in the hope of improving his sight. The operation was not a success, and since that time he had been practically blind. He worried considerably over this fact, with the result that his health failed.
O'Neal was a native of Ireland and was 85 years of age. He came to the United States with his parents when a boy, and in 1849 sailed around the Horn for California on the ship Argonaut. He opened what was considered the finest butcher shop in San Francisco, continuing in business in that city until 1879. During this period he was prominent in state politics.
In 1877 with James C. Flood, Sr., O'Neal purchased the Santa Margarita ranch, 135,000 acres. Later they bought adjoining property which gave them a ranch of 205,000 acres. Last December he deeded his half interest in the property to his eldest son, Jerome O'Neal. Then he divided his remaining property, consisting of large blocks of securities and realty holdings in San Francisco, Sacramento, and San Diego among the others of his family.
GEORGE V AND CHARLES I
Political Disturbances in Briton Recalls Cromwell
George V, ascending the throne of England, faces a situation in many ways similar to that which his illustrious and afterward beheaded ancestor Charles I passed through when he
made by the companies to operate their locomotives so as not to cause fires. The protective strip is to be designated jointly by representatives of the railroad and the forest service.
In fighting fires the railroads and the forest service will cooperate very closely. Prompt notification to forest officers of all fires discovered by employees of the railroads is provided for. Telephone lines to make this possible will be put up by the forest service, using the companies' poles where this is desirable. Warning whistles will be sounded by locomotives on occasion. Forces of fire fighters will be assembled on the outbreak of fires, made up of forest officers, railroad employees, and such temporary labor as can be gathered by either. Except for salaries of the regular employees the cost of fighting fires which start within 200 feet of the railroads will be borne by the forest service, unless it shall be shown in the first case that the railroads were not responsible or in the second place that they were responsible for the outbreak of the fire.
The agreement provides that the forest service will regularly patrol the rights of way during the fire season. The work of clearing the strips satisfactorily, including disposal of all slash and refuse, is to be performed by the railroads under the supervision of the forest service.
Since the courts have sustained the right of the Department of Agriculture to collect damages from railroads running through national forests for fires which they cause, there is in this fact a strong inducement for railroads to join with the department in the effort to keep fires down; but other reasons are doubtless potent, and perhaps the most potent ones, in favor of this agreement. The Northern Pacific, being a land grant railroad, owns a great amount of timber on the alternate sections along its line. The Great Northern, although it is not a land-grant road, also has property at stake in its buildings and the line itself, operation of which may be seriously interfered with by forest conflagrations. The value of heavy timber in mountainous regions as a deterent to avalanches, landslides and floods is also to be considered. But from the standpoint of a far-sighted business policy a still broader argument is the relation of the forests to the general welfare of the regions whose traffic the railroads handle. Timber which goes up in smoke pays no freight tolls, and unchecked forest devastation means the enfeeblement of many industries blocks of securities and reality holdings in San Francisco, Sacramento, and San Diego among the others of his family.
GEORGE V AND CHARLES I
Political Disturbances in Briton Recalls Cromwell
George V, ascending the throne of England, faces a situation in many ways similar to that which his illustrious and afterward beheaded ancestor, Charles I, passed through when he came into the kingdom.
Charles began his reign with a conflict with the Commons. He ended his reign upon the scaffold.
George V begins his reign with expressed contempt for the Commons, with stern insistence upon the divine rights of kings and the divine prerogatives of lords, with the intra-conservative ideas, with bigoted retention of moss-grown ideals of privileges.
Charles I had all these characteristics. In fact, it was his possession of them that started the conflict, since the earlier parliament of his reign represented the earnest and the temperate judgment of his country.
When Charles assembled his parliament he met a body of men determined to obtain the redress of their grievances, just grievances as they were, and to restrain undue prerogatives. But there was no hint of disloyalty and no dreams of revolution. The autocratic domination of Charles, a characteristic that George V possesses, forced the issue with the parliament.
The privileges of the crown in relation to parliament give George V a tremendous power that it is more than likely he will assert, though the consequences may involve his conservative following in disaster.
The entire house of lords has been practically the creation of the crown. The king calls parliament to meet, prescribes the time and place of the meeting, prerogues and dissolves it, and commands the issue of the writs of election of members of the house of commons.
When parliament has assembled it cannot proceed to business until the king has declared the cause of summons, in person or by commission. It will be seen that theoretically at least, George has therefore the power to hold off a meeting of parliament if he sees fit to dissolve it now, for at least three years.
At this crisis in the affairs of government such a step would produce a condition not far dissimilar to that which preceded the great revolution which put Gormwell in the place of Frank Wright has bought the H.F. H. Schneider 10-acre grove east of this city, paying $9500.
L. W. Bushard has sold to P. Hannah a 10-acre ranch east of Anaheim for $3500. D. N. Kelly has sold to Mrs. McGill a 10-acre ranch east of Anaheim for $3200.
Mrs. Annie Walters has sold to Kittle Andrews 5 acres of unimproved land on Los Angeles, Anaheim, for $2000.
TO FOLSOM FOR LIFE
Overacker Hears Sentence Through Ear Trumpet
S. H. Overacker, who on Jan. 13 shot and killed G. A. Winn at Newhope, was on Friday sentenced to state's prison at Folsom for the remainder of his natural life. Sentence was pronounced by Judge West at 3:10 o'clock and was in accordance with the verdict of the jury rendered eight days ago, namely, that Overacker was guilty of murder in the first degree and that the penalty of life imprisonment be given.
Judge West denied the motion of Overacker's attorneys for a new trial.
Judge West called Overacker to the bench, and the man leaned forward with his ear trumpet and heard his sentence. The judge said to him that he had been given a fair trial, denied no right, and that his defense had been ably and vigilantly conducted.
When asked if he had any preference as to which state prison he should go to, Overaker said he preferred a dry climate as he had catarrh. Judge West then sentenced him to Folsom for life.
ARE THE TIMES AWRY?
Federal Officers Used to Line Legislators Up in Senatorial Fight
Charges that former high government officials tried to tamper with the Oregon legislature by trading federal offices for votes was made in the senate at Washington the other day by Senator Jonathan Bourne of Oregon.
Bourne discussed the success of popular government in Oregon. He said the most severe test came when the people elected a republican legislature, which later endorsed Gov. Chamberlain a democrat for the se-
forest conflagrations. The value of heavy timber in mountainous regions as a deterent to avalanches, landslides and floods is also to be considered. But from the standpoint of a far-sighted business policy a still broader argument is the relation of the forests to the general welfare of the regions whose traffic the railroads handle. Timber which goes up in smoke pays no freight tolls, and unchecked forest devastation means the enfeeblement of many industries dependent on wood or water. For this reason, though there were no other, Secretary Wilson's foresters think the new agreements of important significance.
DROPS ALIMONY SUIT
A suit brought by Mrs. Elsie M. Carter of Nebraska to collect $430.00 from her former husband, E. J. McGlothlin of this city, has been dismissed. A dismissal, signed by Attorney Ames for the plaintiff, and McGlothlin for the defendant, was filed in the superior court some days ago. Mrs. Carter in her complaint alleged that $430 was due her from McGlothlin under an order from a Nebraska court, given when she got a divorce from McGlothlin. The case seems to have been settled out of court.

At this crisis in the affairs of government such a step would produce a condition not far dissimilar to that which preceded the great revolution which put Cromwell in the place of the Stuarts and established the commonwealth.
The similarity of attitude between the unfortunate Charles and the present George is the more marked by the fact that England has progressed 300 years since Charles met the commons in the struggle that resulted in the establishment of the commonwealth and the practical extinction of the Stuarts. In the interval the people of England have progressed beyond the possibility of reaction, such as has come to pass in their monarchs.

Charges that former high government officials tried to tamper with the Oregon legislature by trading federal offices for votes was made in the senate at Washington the other day by Senator Jonathan Bourne of Oregon.
Bourne discussed the success of popular government in Oregon. He said the most severe test came when the people elected a republican legislature, which later endorsed Gov. Chamberlain, a democrat, for the senate. He declared that fifty-one out of ninety legislators were pledged to carry out the voters' mandates. He said:
"During the session of the legislature a former government official, an associate of the then chairman of the republican national committee, Frank Hitchcock, the present postmaster general, appeared and informed the legislators that he was promised federal appointments to those who would disregard their pledges.
"Offers were made by the enemies of the direct primary law to create an impression, by reason of this person's relations with the chairman of the republican committee, that he would be able to deliver federal appointments. I think all will agree that the times are awry."

PAPER TAGS FOR HUNTERS
Countny Clerk Williams Gets Compliment from Mr. Vogelsang
County Clerk Williams has made a settlement with the State Fish Commission for all the hunting licenses sold by him during the year beginning July 1, 1909. He turned over $2195 to Chief Deputy C. A. Vogelsang of San Francisco. All of the licenses sold here were $1 licenses, none for non-residents, costing $10, and none to foreigners, costing $25.
Vogelsang in a letter to the county clerk complimented him for the neatness and dispatch with which he handled the hunter's license business in this county. Every license and every dollar were accounted for.
The chief deputy in his letter states that the 1910-11 licenses will be issued about June 1st. The tags this year will be very similar to the ones used last year, differing in color, engraving, and of heavier texture. Vogelsang says that at first hunters objected strongly to the paper tag displacing the metal tag used the first two years. From the point of view of the commission, the paper tag is more desirable, as it carries a description of the person to whom it is issued, thus doing away with practically all of the borrowing, trading and loaning of tags.
It is to be concluded from the chief deputy's letter that about 300 hunters borrowed tags during the second year of the hunter's license system in this state. He points to the figures: First year's receipts, $1118,000; second year, $115,000; third year (last) $126,000.
