RT. REV. BISHOP CONATY A PULPIT ORATOR PREACHES SERMON TO LARGE CONGREGATION Administers Sacrament of Confirmation to Class of 160 Novitiates—Speaks at Dedication of Chapel at Sisters’ School—Talks to Boys at Afternoon’s Entertainment—Invokes Blessing Upon Non-Catholic Friends Bishop Conaty spoke three times to large audiences in this city on Sunday, and his auditors heard him in different phases of the oratory which characterizes his utterances in and out of the pulpit. The bishop came with the proud distinction of being probably the foremost pulpit orator in the west, and his hearers had no cause to detract from that honor, not alone for what he said, as for the splendid simplicity in which he clothed the sentences which fell upon their ears. A stranger to the arts common with the perforated friends, as well as upon the members of the church. The Sisters school, he said, reared boys regardless of their religion, the aim being to continue them in that path which their parents would, if living, prefer for them. The rules prohibit proselytism, and no boy is forced to accept the Catholic religion. The influence of the school is, of course, Catholic, but no boy is denied the right to worship God according to the dictates of his own conscience. Before preaching the sermon, Bishop Conaty congratulated the pastor and people of the parish of St. Boniface on the announcement made by the pastor, Rev. F. J. Dubbel, that the parish indebtedness had been wiped out. The Bishop spoke of his presence seven years ago at the dedication of the church which was the first public act of his episcopacy in this diocese and said it gave him great pleasure to find that by the generous co-operation of the people with the pastor the church property had been freed from debt and that they were able to offer to Almighty God as the generous tribute of their religious spirit the beautiful church and church property. He said that in addition to this announcement came another which was even more... to large audiences in this city on Sunday, and his auditors heard him in different phases of the oratory which characterizes his utterances in and out of the pulpit. The bishop came with the proud distinction of being probably the foremost pulpit orator in the west, and his hearers had no cause to detract from that honor, not alone for what he said, as for the splendid simplicity in which he clothed the sentences which fell upon their ears. A stranger to the arts common with the perforated declaimer, incapable of associating them with pulpit work, his oratory impresses one the more completely, not only for its loftiness of thought, its broad-gauged liberality, as for the majesty of the words clothing his ideas. In the morning at 10 o'clock he preached at St. Boniface church to a congregation which filled the edifice to the doors, taking for his text the admonition of the Savior to the fisherman at the Sea of Genesareth. He referred to St. Boniface, the patron-saint of the church, as a fisher of men, and spoke feelingly of his life work and martyrdom. Seven years ago, he said, he dedicated this church, which was the first to be dedicated in his diocese following his arrival from the east. Today, he continued, according to the statement of Father Dubbel, the church is free of debt. While this is admirable, for the house of God should be beholden to no man, yet the spiritual work of the church during the year, always and ever superior to the things material in this life, were such as to command the approbation of all who take an interest in church work. The bishop administered the sacrament of confirmation to a class of 160 novitiates. In the afternoon at 3 o'clock he spoke at the dedication of the new chapel at the Sisters' school. Work upon the new edifice, which cost $30,000, had been in progress for a year, and a large audience was present to witness the dedication. The bishop referred in words of praise to the Sisters of St. Dominic, who are giving their lives to charity without hope of earthly recompence. Their reward will come in fulfillment of the words of the Savior, who said that whoso shall minister to the wants of a little child shall reap his reward in heaven a hundred fold. What is sweeter, he asked, than the offering of food and drink and raiment to a child in need? How much sweeter, then, is it to offer shelter and food to these little ones who have been deprived of the blessings of home and presence seven years ago at the dedication of the church which was the first public act of his episcopacy in this diocese and said it gave him great pleasure to find that by the generous co-operation of the people with the pastor the church property had been freed from debt and that they were able to offer to Almighty God as the generous tribute of their religious spirit the beautiful church and church property. He said that in addition to this announcement came another which was even more satisfactory, and that related to the spiritual condition of the parish and was shown in the church organizations, the fulfillment of the Easter duty as well as in the increased attendance at all the devotions. He said that the fact that in the class to be confirmed there were eighteen adult converts also gave clear indication of the work which the church was doing. The Bishop then read the epistle and gospel of the day, after which he preached a sermon upon the life and virtues of St. Boniface and their duty to him as the patron of the parish. He spoke of St. Boniface as in all probability coming from England and becoming the apostle to the German nations. He was born in $80 and was martyred in 755. He was called to the apostolate of Germany by Pope Gregory and the blessings of God were on his labors for the German tribes became Christians. After dwelling at length upon the life and work of St. Boniface, he remarked upon the relation of the apostolate to the See of Peter and said that just as in the gospel of the day Christ spoke from Peter's ship and promised to make Peter a fisher of men, so at all times the church has recognized the central authority of the Sovereign Pontiff. The Bishop urged the people to devotion toward St. Boniface who was the apostle of the nation from which so many of their fathers had come, and said that as the patron of the church he deserved their confidence, their affection and their imitation. He said that in the providence of God she saints had been placed over us as our patrons and used their influence at the throne of God that we might obtain the graces needed in order that, like them, we might serve God and save our souls. He then addressed himself to the children of the confirmation class and said that they should value as greater than anything in the world the gift of divine faith by which they became the children of God and were capable of loving and serving Him and ing their lives to charity without hope of earthly recompence. Their reward will come in fulfillment of the words of the Savior, who said that whoso shall minister to the wants of a little child shall reap his reward in heaven a hundred fold. What is sweeter, he asked, than the offering of food and drink and raiment to a child in need? How much sweeter, then, is it to offer shelter and food to these little ones who have been deprived of the blessings of home and parents. These Sisters, he said, are raising these boys so that they may not continue to be dependent and a charge upon the commonwealth, but that they may be able to be self-supporting and to assume the obligations of citizenship confronting them. The chapel was blessed by the bishop, accompanied by a number of priests. The distinguished visitor, preceeded by priests, marched up the winding walk of the grounds between files of orphans clad in white frocks. Arriving at the entrance to the old building, he met a number of gentlemen who had come down from Los Angeles to attend the day's services. He spoke with these pleasantly and proceeded on his way into the building. Following his chapel discourse he spoke at the new wing of the school, where the boys of the institution participated in a meritorious program. He spoke of the work of self-abnegation undertaken by the Sisters, spoke in terms of praise of the building reared by their hands, and thanked the people of Anaheim for their interest taken in the institution. He especially thanked the non-Catholic friends of the institution for their assistance, adding that only by the exercise of such broad-minded spirit could a community be prosperous. He praised the liberality of the state whose bounty made this institution possible. In his chapel address he asked a blessing upon non-Catholic in the providence of God the saints had been placed over us as our patrons and used their influence at the throne of God that we might obtain the graces needed in order that, like them, we might serve God and save our souls. He then addressed himself to the children of the confirmation class and said that they should value as greater than anything in the world the gift of divine faith by which they became the children of God and were capable of loving and serving Him and reaching heaven. He illustrated the beauty of divine faith as seen in the life of St. Boniface and as bringing the nations out of paganism into Christianity, and said that they should sacredly guard the treasure of their faith and protect it from danger by fidelity to all the duties of their Christian life, and above all, by the practice of Christian virtue. He said that the sacraments were the great means of divine grace and their frequent reception insured that protection by which in time of danger God's grace guards one from sin. The neglect of prayer, the violation of the precepts of God and the church evil associations—these are means by which one falls into the habits of sin and thus exposes himself to the loss of God. The Bishop urged the children to be good and faithful Catholics, loyal to their church and proud of their religion and obedient to all the obligations of their Christian character. He urged them to tender devotion to St. Boniface as the patron of the parish and to strive and imitate him in his fidelity to God, even to giving up his life in order to prove loyalty to Christ. In the afternoon the dedication of the new buildings of St. Catherine's orphanage took place. The Bishop in Cope and Mitre solemnly blessed the building and the chapel, following.

Superintendent Informs Citizen Large Amount on Hand Which May Be Disbursed to Other Districts—School Trustee Avers Board Knows All About It, and None of It Will Escape—Bixby Makes Marshal Simpson Cough Up $75 County School Superintendent Mitchell informed Attorney Spencer some days ago that there was $5000 in the county treasury belonging to the Anaheim school district, and which, having remained unused by the district, was subject to apportionment among the other school districts of the county. This money represents, so the report goes, funds unapportioned to this district during some years past, and is the sum remaining on hand after all the expenses of the district have been liquidated. RUNS OVER A MEXICAN Martine Fandoval Seriously Injured, but no Bones Broken. Art Beard on Tuesday at noon, driving an auto around the corner of Los Angeles and Center streets, ran over and seriously injured Martine Fandoval, a Mexican orange-picker, aged 23, who was riding along the street on a bicycle. Another auto was passing at the time, and Fandoval in attempting to get out of its way, was run over by Beard, who was running slowly at the time, and endeavored to get out of Fandoval's way Both autos and the Mexican were going in the same direction, and although Beard attempted to steer out of harm's way he struck the Mexican, knocking him down and running over his body with both wheels. The machine passed over the man's shoulders and legs. The bicycle was broken, the rear wheel being smashed and the handle bars and peddles being knocked off. Beard immediately stopped his machine, and bystanders picked up Fandoval and placed him in the auto. A run was made for Dr. Beebe's office, but he was out. The injured man ROYER AND MELROSE BACK FROM DESERT MAKE TOUR OF INSPECTION OF QUARTZ KING MINE Ore Revealed Which Assays $72,000 to the Ton—Gold and Copper Deposits Rich in Wealth and Boundless in Extent—Hardships Encountered in Bringing In Machinery Before the Railroad Came—Weathter Col. J. O. Royer and Richard Melrose returned on Saturday from a visit to the Quartz King mine near Parker, Arizona. Mr. Melrose told the Gazette reporter several interesting incidents of the trip. He is not pressed with the territory as a summer resort. Among other things said: "We were fortunate in making our visit during a comparatively cool period. Had we gone a week sooner, we would have found the temperature ranging from 120 to 130 in the shade whereas, with the good fortune that seems always to attend Col. Royer." County School Superintendent Mitchell informed Attorney Spencer some days ago that there was $5000 in the county treasury belonging to the Anaheim school district, and which, having remained unused by the district, was subject to apportionment among the other school districts of the county. This money represents, so the report goes, funds unapportioned to this district during some years past, and is the sum remaining on hand after all the expenses of the district have been liquidated. Wm. Schwenckert, clerk of the district, is out of town this week, but Mr. Clabaugh of the school board said Tuesday the money in the county treasury belonging to the district would be used in improvements this year. The amount, he said, was not so large as reports indicated, but he did not know the exact figures, as Mr. Schwenckert had the books. However, he said the school board would have use for all of the money, and none of it will be permitted to get away. BIXBY GETS A DRAWDOWN Put Up $100 Ball for Speeding, Pays Fine of $25 Jothan Bixby got a drawback of $75 from the $100 bail exacted from him by Marshal Simpson two weeks ago. Jotham sped through town in his auto, going at a pace calculated to put the average speed monster to the blush, and Simpson overhauled him on his return while he was getting some beauty sleep at a hotel. Simpson ran his auto in a garage, and when Jothan later recovered from the exhausting effects of his ride, he was made to put up a check in the amount of $100, good money. Bixby continued on his way to Long Beach, when, being revived by the salt air atmosphere, he telephoned up to learn how much change there would be coming to him on the morrow when he appeared in court. The officer sent back word there would be no change. Jothan appeared with an attorney, and asked for a change of venue. This Judge Howard granted, sending the case to Justice Smithwick's court at Santa Ana. Jothan came to court again, agreed to forfeit $25 of his bail, was refunded $75 and went on his way rejoicing. The next time he goes from Long Beach to Olive he will probably go by way of Tomato Springs. though Beard attempted to steer out of harm's way he struck the Mexican, knocking him down and running over his body with both wheels. The machine passed over the man's shoulders and legs. The bicycle was broken, the rear wheel being smashed and the handle bars and peddles being knocked off. Beard immediately stopped his machine, and bystanders picked up Fandoval and placed him in the auto. A run was made for Dr. Beebe's office, but he was out. The injured man was taken to Dr. Johnston's, who found that no bones were broken. Fandoval was taken to his home east of the Santa Fe depot, where he is recovering from his bruises. Dr. Johnston states he is not seriously injured. PARENT-TEACHERS MEET Officers Installed to Serve During Ensuing Year The Parent Teachers Association held its regular meeting Tuesday afternoon in the high school auditorium. After the regular business the annual reports were given. Mrs. Mills, chairman of the emergency committee, reported the fitting up, through the kindness of the trustees, of an emergency room in the Central school building, where since October 75 cases have been treated.

MAY LACK A QUORUM Two Trustees Preparing for Their Summer Vacation Max Nebelung leaves today for Oregon, where he will join Mrs. Nebelung in a summer-outing trip which will extend well into July. On Saturday Otto Rust leaves with his family for the Yosemite, where he will linger for a month. These two gentlemen are members of the board of city trustees, and as that body consists at present of but four members, there is liable to be lacking a quorum at the next meeting or two of the board. On Monday next the special election occurs to choose a fifth member of the board, and the returns must be canvassed by the city board at its meeting on Thursday evening. With no quorum present, people are asking what the result will be. When the matter was put up to Mr. Rust yesterday he said he would come back from Yosemite if necessary. Trustees Stock and Gates are still on the job, and at latest accounts had not announced the objective points of their summer's outing. The aggregate amount of cash in the county treasury at the beginning of the current month was $202,372.41. WILL BUILD SANITORIUM Dr. Janns Purchases Four Acres of Joseph Dauser Dr. Janns of Los Angeles this week closed a deal with Joseph Dauser for the purchase of his four acre tract on West Center street, below Palm. Dr. Janns will erect a large sanitarium, work upon which will begin in the near future. The following officers were installed: Mrs. Dell Lemon, president; Miss E. Kate Rea, 1st vice president; Mrs. Thompson, proxy for Mrs. Agnes T. Grim, 2d vice president; Mrs. Hattle A. Spencer, secretary; Miss Elenora A. Parker, treasurer. The president gave the aims and purposes of the association, to remove any misunderstanding that may have arisen concerning our work. The high school glee club and orchestra furnished the music for the afternoon. They were given a rising vote of thanks. A very interesting and instructive discussion was indulged in regarding the necessity of having a supervising principal, why Anaheim has not one when there are three schools to be looked after, the deplorable fact that so many of the best teachers, whose homes are not in Anaheim, are leaving because salaries are so low, the amount of money in the treasury to be used for teachers' salaries only, which is lying idle and may be distributed among the other school districts in Orange county if not used in Anaheim in a very short time, and other similar subjects. Dainty refreshments were served at the close of one of the most interesting and most beneficial meetings held this year. Col. Royer's energy and push is apparent even to the eye of the tyranny in the amount of development work that has been done since 1904, which year active operations were first begun. That year saw the beginning of the work of sinking a vertical shaft located well into the mine at bearing zone upon a large iron copper per dike, at which point the miners bearing formation is proven to be 1000 feet wide. The power for development comprised two 60-horse power gasoline engines which operated the holst, and a 45-horse power compressor, while a third, a 12-horse power engine, operates a triplex plunge pump. With this machinery the shaft was sunk to a depth of 26 feet and the ledge was pretty thoroughly explored by drifts and cross cuts as far as the 200 foot level. Large bodies of medium grade ore were encountered with a good number of high-grade streaks, some of which averaged as much as eight AZETTE JE 16, 1910 NUMBER 35 AND MELROSE CK FROM DESERT OUR OF INSPECTION OF WARTZ KING MINE led Which Assays $72,000 Ton—Gold and Copper Dech in Wealth and BoundExtent—Hardships EncountBringing In Machinery BeRailroad Came—Weather D.

Royer's feet in width. This ore is in carbonate and oxides to where the water is encountered, at which point the sulphides are making, which insures a permanent enriched ore zone and which will most probably grow richer with depth. "At 230 feet the shaft began to enter the water, which increased so rapidly that at the depth of 265 feet work was suspended on account of the incapacity of the machinery. A meeting of the board of directors of the company was held to consider the proper course to pursue. There were two ways out of the difficulty, one being the installation of an almost entirely new plant, if the shaft was to be contipued to the 500 level, the objective depth, and the other was to move the present plant some 2500 feet west toward the river and at a lower elevation of 250 feet. This latter plan was adopted, and a shaft 125 feet in depth was made, from which a tunnel is now being driven. The tunnel is now completed to a distance of 585 feet, and there is every indication that the vein of rich ore will be reached within the next 50 feet. Operations on the tunnel, however, will have to be temporarily suspended about July 1st, as the heat FUSILADE OF SHOTS CAUSES EXCITEMENT OFFICER BONKOSKY PUMPS LEAD AT FLEEING MAN Two City Officials in Scrap With Gang from Oil Wells—Said to Have Been Knocked Down—One Man Makes Escape by Running, Another Locked Up and Released the Next Morning on Putting Up Ball The spectacle of a peace officer, pistol in hand, chasing a ruffian from the Olinda oil wells, who had assaulted him, and calling upon him to stop, excited a thoroughfare crowded with people on Center street shortly before 11 o'clock on Saturday evening. The fleeing man turned south on Los Angeles street. Turning the corner after him, Bonkosky fired his revolver four times in a vain endeavor to halt his man, who made off in the darkness and escaped. His name was secured, but was not made public, and he will probably be arrested at Olinda Mr. Melrose told the reporter several interesting facts of the trip. He is not imminent with the territory as a summer. Among other things he fortunate in making our comparatively cool permeable gone a week sooner, we were found the temperature from 120 to 130 in the shade; with the good fortune that says to attend Col. Royer's stewed in a temperature from 110 to 114 degrees in summer. That is not so bad as it ever was, as the absence of rain in the atmosphere makes endurable. The same temperture Costa Rica, where we wear, would have been unheard because of the moisture-laden that there are some Arizona where human beings and enjoy life. We didn't part. Superintendent Sidney Quartz King, without inbe irreverent, put the case "When God made the Aristocrat," he said, 'and looked at work. He was prazed to do to induce people here, so He just put His Pockets and pulled out and sprinkled it around.' However, Mr. Simon attributing of the desert to the force. A popular song of relieves God from the reckless. "The devil made the he made it in the night; in a hurry, and didn't do But no hardships, no additions, will prevent men most of the precious metal; gold will draw him anyon to the Arizona desert. Mainly the territory is rich mineral, and undoubtedly for years to come there will cities and developments alike, for there is a vast excountry yet to be tested and quartz King group of mines, 114 claims, and having an 80 acres, is situate less miles from the banks of the river, and about six miles new town of Parker.

Abtrouble to keep from freezing remember the old saving; move the present plant some 2500 feet west toward the river and at a lower elevation of 250 feet. This latter plan was adopted, and a shaft 125 feet in depth was made, from which a tunnel is now being driven. The tunnel is now completed to a distance of 585 feet, and there is every indication that the vein of rich ore will be reached within the next 50 feet. Operations on the tunnel, however, will have to be temporarily suspended about July 1st, as the heat is too great to permit of further operations until about the middle of Sepember, when the work will be resumed. "Col. Royer is more than firm in the belief that the Quartz King will develop into one of the greatest producers the world has ever known, and he has backed his belief with his mony. He owns more than two-thirds of the stock of the corporation, which is capitalized at $1,500,000 and none of his stock is for sale. "The work of developing the mine was attended with difficulties and obstacles which would have completely discouraged a less determined man. In 1904 the railroad had not even been contemplated and all the machinery and supplies had to be taken down the Colorado river in boats built under Col. Royer's supervision. One boat load of valuable machinery sank in the treacherous waters. Procuring a diver from San Pedro, Cal., Royer went systematically to work, and managed to save every bit of the wrecked cargo. The lumber needed in the mining operations had to be rafted down the river, and there were times when, to use Col. Royer's expression, he would have taken $10 for the $1000 worth of lumber which was being churned and crunched against the banks and rocks by the angry waters. But none was lost, though the cost came high—only $110 a thousand feet, and thousands of dollars were expended in building roads from the river to the mines over an indescribably rough country. "Personally, I know nothing about mines or mining and cannot give any technical description of the Quartz King properties. But I made my painful way over about a hundred miles of the lava hills and valleys, and even through the resultant rain of perspiration I could readily see, with my non-expert eyes, the rich masses of copper-stained ore, and trace for miles the surface vein which is expected to yield its golden harvest when tapped in the bowels of the earth. This copper ore so abundantly in evidence runs from 35 to 60 per cent copper, the Olinda oil wells, who had assaulted him, and calling upon him to stop, excited a thoroughfare crowded with people on Center street shortly before 11 o'clock on Saturday evening. The fleeing man turned south on Los Angeles street. Turning the corner after him, Bonkosky fired his revolver four times in a vain endeavor to halt his man, who made off in the darkness and escaped. His name was secured, but was not made public, and he will probably be arrested at Olinda where he is said to hold a position with an oil company. Bonkosky sought to quiet a bunch of boisterous men near Stark's saloon, cautioning them to preserve the peace. Bystanders say he was struck and knocked down. Simpson was returning from the city jail, where he had just locked up a drunk, when his attention was attracted to the trouble further down the street. Coming up with Bonkosky and his man, who were clinched in a fight on the sidewalk. Simpson commanded the man to preserve the peace, and broke the hold the fellow had upon Bonkosky. At this point Simpson was struck by a party from behind. Simpson says he saw the blow coming, dodged to escape it, lost his balance and fell to his knee. The blow, he says, grazed the back of his neck. Had the blow landed, he declares, it would have "put him to sleep." A large crowd gathered in the excitement of the fracas, and reports were current that Simpson had been knocked down and injured. He shows no effects of the scrimmage, however. Simpson placed the man who struck him under arrest. The latter started walking across the street. The officer followed him and arrested him and took him to jail. The man was released on Sunday morning by putting up $10 bail. Bonkosky went after his man, who started east on Center street. Bystanders say the man picked up his coat after the trouble and sprinted. The officer went after him, pistol in hand, calling upon him to stop. Turning around the corner, the officer fired at him, as stated, in an effort to halt him, but he made good his escape. Great excitement existed in town over the fight and subsequent shooting, and citizens declare the Saturday night seances which occur in town must cease.

EBELL TRAVEL SECTION The Travel Section of the Ebell society held its last meeting for the year on Saturday, June 11. The persons present were conducted to the Alhambra, made immortal to Americans by Irving; to the Generalife, the ancient castle with its interesting legends. They were informed on the subject of the Spanish Inquisition, and were invited to witness a very realistic bull fight of the present day. They were led through the picture galleries for a last look on the paintings of old masters, especially a certain painting of a Madonna by Murillo. At the conclusion of the lecture on Spain the sentiment was expressed that the section had learned a great deal more about that country than they had thought possible. It was found necessary to assess each member of the section 10 cents in order to return to Miss Walker the sum she had advanced to pay return freight on the books from the State Library. Members of this model society always respond to a call like this before they are asked individually. The section agreed that they owed Mr. Walker a cordial vote of thanks for his courtesy in putting the high school building at their disposal, and instructed the secretary to make public mention of their gratitude. The section adjourned to meet with Mrs. Storm on the second Wednesday in September at 3 p.m.
