The Weekly Gazette. ESTABLISHED 1870 Henry Kuchel, Editor and Proprietor SUBSCRIPTION.....$1.50 Per Year Six Months.....$1.00 Three Months.....50 Cts. The Gazette is issued every Thursday morning. Entered at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter. Has the Largest Circulation LET US HAVE SEWERS Orange last week voted overwhelmingly in favor of sewer and paving bonds. Now let Anaheim set itself to the task of voting bonds for a sewer system. It is needed. We have made admirable progress in street paving, and paving of our principal thoroughfares is still in progress. Let us take up an issue of sewer bonds, which are imperatively needed. Let us not forget that various state and county bond issues will be up for approval or disapproval in the near future. In November we shall vote upon an issue of $18,000,000 of state bonds for a good road system. As we have hitherto pointed out, San Francisco is exempted from paying taxes for interest upon these bonds. These securities run for fifty years, and the interest upon them totals $20,000,000. We hope the bonds will be defeated. Then there is an issue of $10,000,000 of water front bonds for San Francisco, which voters of the state will be asked to indorse in November. Following this will come an issue of probably a million and a half for county roads, and which Orange county will vote upon early next year. A new schoolhouse will be imperatively demanded in this city before long and bonds will pro- LEAVES A LARGE ESTATE Will of Late Pierre Nicolas Filed for Probate Pierre Nicolas who died in Los Angeles August 20th, left an estate valued at $159,591.08, according to the value placed on property in this and Los Angeles county by the executors of his estate. Head & Marks of Fullerton are attorneys for the executors. Mr. Nicolas was a resident of Fullerton at the time of his death and on Tuesday morning a petition for probate of the will was filed with the county clerk. The portion of the estate in this county is valued at about $16,500. The executors are Pierre Nicolas Jr., Mrs. Marie Stern and Mrs. Agnes Fuller, who were named in the will and who will act without compensation. The will was made on the 14th day of February of this year. There are seven heirs all of whom are of age but Paul, who is about 17 years of age. The other heirs are Marie Stern, aged 37; Louise Flghiera, 35; Agnes Fuller, 33; Virginia Miles, 31; Pierre Nicolas, Jr., 28, and Claire Nicolas, 21. The will provides that Paul shall have $2000 carried in the Fraternal Aid, and that the residue shall be divided equally among the seven children. Should any of the heirs contest the will before the estate is closed, it is provided that the contestant shall lose all claim to interest in the estate and shall receive in lieu thereof the sum of $500. WAS ACCIDENTALLY SHOT Placed Cocked Revolver In Pocket, Wounded In Leg E. K. Roberts of Los Angeles was accidentally shot with a pistol on Monday afternoon as he was walking from Laguna Beach to Corona Del Mar. The bullet lodged in the left leg and inflicted only a painful wound. HAIL, THE HOUSE The prima donna company at present stripped up by her very slightly injured moon on State street. This is as it shows. It would, indeed marked affront to session had any other gied in her hobble and been made the paper article at the fashion.

Great is the stage And at none greater ment when the print fortuitous topical a time and a place stances which the leath to disregard.— THE ROAD TO these bonds. These securities run for fifty years, and the interest upon them totals $20,000,000. We hope the bonds will be defeated. Then there is an issue of $10,000,000 of water front bonds for San Francisco, which voters of the state will be asked to indorse in November. Following this will come an issue of probably a million and a half for county roads, and which Orange county will vote upon early next year. A new schoolhouse will be imperatively demanded in this city before long, and bonds will probably be necessary for that addition to our school facilities. Let us take up the matter of a sewer system forthwith. Anaheim stands more in need of a sewer system at this moment than any of these other measures which are here referred to. Self preservation comes first. Let us take up the sewer system, and discuss these other matters as they arise. Orange has shown a true public spirit in voting sewer and paving bonds. Anaheim has set Orange an excellent example in street paving. Let us profit by her example and proceed to construct an adequate sewer system for this city. COAL BRIQUETTING IN THE UNITED STATES More briquets were made in United States in 1909 than in any preceding year. Sixteen briquetting-plants were in operation, but five of them were working experimentally and two of these were making briquets of peat. The total product in 1909 was 139,661 short tons, valued at $452,697, an increase over the output of 1908 of 49,303 tons, or more than 54 per cent, in quantity, and of $129,640, or 40 per cent, in value. This output is insignificant compared with that of Germany, where 18,000,000 tons of briquets are made every year, but it shows that the briquet industry is at last getting started in the United States. The conditions in Germany, however, are very favorable to the success of the industry. Labor is cheaper, coal is dearer, and the wasteful "beehive" coke oven is unknown, for coal is coked in retort ovens supplied with by-products recovery equipment, which yields a large output of coal-tar pitch that is available for use as binding material for making briquets. In the United States the briquet industry is held back by the large supply of cheap natural fuel, by the high cost of labor, and by attempts to exploit secret processes for which estant shall lose all claim to interest in the estate and shall receive in lieu thereof the sum of $500. WAS ACCIDENTALLY SHOT Placed Cocked Revolver In Pocket, Wounded In Leg E. K. Roberts of Los Angeles was accidentally shot with a pistol on Monday afternoon as he was walking from Laguna Beach to Corona Del Mar. The bullet lodged in the left leg and inflicted only a painful wound. The young man and his father had been spending a time at the beach and started to return home, walking to Corona Del Mar. He had been using his pistol in shooting at squirrels and placed it in his hip pocket cocked. His wound is the result of his carelessness. His father walked back to Laguna, where he notified Manager Doyle of the hotel of the accident. The accident happened at Abalone Point and Mr. Doyle and Joe Baum borrowed an automobile belonging to Pete Syre of Anaheim and drove to the Miles place, three miles from Laguna. It was necessary to carry the injured man a mile to the auto. He was suffering considerable pain and fainted three times while in the arms of Doyle and Baum. He was brought from Laguna to Santa Ana by some one coming in in an automobile. He boarded an electric car and went to Los Angeles, where he was taken to a hospital. MAN WANTED FOR FORGERY Sang in Church Choir, Drank Booze, In Bad Clinton Newton, a member of the choir of the First Christian church of Santa Ana, and who has permitted his appetite for liquor to get the best of him on two or three occasions within the past few months, has made another step to the bad, and officers now hold a warrant for his arrest on a charge of forgery. He passed a forged check for $42 on Walter Vandermast of the firm of Vandermast & Son Saturday night. Mr. Vandermast was personally acquainted with him and had cashed checks for him before, and he took the forged check Saturday night without hesitancy. Newton bought a new suit at $23 and received the difference in cash. The check was issued on the First National bank of Santa Ana and the signature was a rubber stamp name of the Santa Ana Artificial Stone company with the name of E. V. Whitney, one of the members of the company signed in. REAL ESTATE P. H. Krick & Co., following sales: Ben Dauser's re-Ann Field; $3000. Mrs. Ann Field to lay Irrigation company Olive, with pumping.

In the United States the briquet industry is held back by the large supply of cheap natural fuel, by the high cost of labor, and by attempts to exploit secret processes for which extravagant claims are made but which have failed to make good. The material available for briquet making is abundant, consisting of anthracite culm, slack coal unavailable for coking, lignite, coke breeze, and peat; and with the increase in the use of by-product recovery coke-making processes and the mining out of the accessible highgrade coals the briquet industry must surely find a larger market and make a greater output. The Geological Survey has just published a report on coal briquetting in the United States in 1909, by Edward W. Parker, which may be obtained by applying to the Director of the Survey at Washington. The report forms an advance chapter of the survey's annual volume, "Mineral resources of the United States," for the calendar year 1909. San Francisco asks exemption from paying interest on the proposed $18,000,000 state bond issue for good roads, and asks the state of California to vote $5,000,000 bonds for its fair. Funny, isn't it? On his present trip Col. Roosevelt has not yet delivered a political speech, except that all of his speeches have the flavor of a presidential message.

The prima donna of a theatrical company at present in this city was tripped up by her hobble skirt and very slightly injured Saturday afternoon on State street. This is as it should be. It would, indeed, have been a marked affront to the theatrical profession had any other woman got tangled in her hobble skirt on State St. and been made the subject of a news paper article at this early stage of the fashion. By common consent the right to have the first adventures which carry a certain amount of not unprofitable notoriety is conceded to the women of the stage. It is felt to be due the devotees of dramatic art. However, now that the prima donna in question has tripped and fallen in her hobble skirt, the bars may be considered down. Almost any woman may now do it without being taxed with haste and inconsiderateness. Ladies connected with beauty parlors, with new hair restorer preparation concerns, with forthcoming auction sales of furniture, with hairgoods emporiums, with dramatic and correspondence schools; in fact, with almost anything which will not suffer from being brought to public notice, will no doubt be numbered henceforth among the hobble skirt trippers and fallers. Great is the stage at every stage. And at none greater than at the moment when the prima donna and the fortuitous topical accident meet at a time and a place and under circumstances which the newspapers are leath to disregard.—Inter Ocean. THE ROAD TO MATRIMONY It is no surprise to learn that plainfaced cashiers are so extremely production of ice is still a trifle too costly to be feasible. Picture a cattle ranch squatted in the center of hundreds of miles of dry, sun baked, semi desert land. There is just enough growth of wild grass about to satisfy the far-wandering herds, which drink from the thick, warm waters of some artificial oasis. A cowboy returns to the ranch after an all-day's exposure to the blistering heat. With parched lips he rides quickly up to a little red, oval-shaped earthen jar suspended by a rope behind the house. He takes off the cover, which is merely there to keep out the blowing sand, and dips forth a cup of icewater which has never come in contact with anything but the sun-exposed sides of the earthen receptacle which incloses it. The water is always in there, and it is practically effortless and costless in the making of it. The secret lies wholly in the construction of the little red receptacles. This is a simple Mexican creation, and in that language is called an olla, the two l's being silent according to the Spanish pronunciation of the word. In northern Mexico olla making is a very profitable industry to the inhabitants, who carry them over into Arizona on the backs of burros. A good olla can be purchased from the proprietor of one of these little caravans for 50 or 75 cents. The olla is made from a crude clayish mortar, composed of burro manure and sand. This, with the use of a little water, is worked into a pliable mass by the Mexican, and when dry and thick enough molded into the desired shape of the vessel. In drying the composition becomes very porous, and it is this essential characteristic which contain the secret of the cooling process. THE ROAD TO MATRIMONY It is no surprise to learn that plainfaced cashiers are so extremely rare in St. Louis that they must be advertised for; and the only reason given for the advertisement is that five cashiers have been married from behind the desk in the past twelve months and that the advertisement venture is a desperate effort to reduce this constant procession of the trained helpers to the hymeneal altar. It seems a useless attempt, for the attractive charms of cashiers are in no way confined to mere faultless complexions or regularity of feature. Every girl is endowed with a more or less generous capital in the lists of sentiment and every girl is sure to be some man's better half if he is fortunate enough to find her and happily secures favor in her eyes. In these days of bountiful work for women, maidens fair do not feel any impulsion of haste in choosing. The man who persuades a self-supporting young woman to marry him ought to feel flattered. While we sympathize deeply with St. Louis firms which can not keep a beautiful cashier any longer than from Monday until Saturday on account of the matrimonial raids of the nice, likely looking young men, we car scarcely help from uttering three cheers—in which we feel confident we shall be joined and re-enforced by numerous worthy citizens who have flats to rent—just suited to the requirements of young married couples.

The olla is made from a crude clayish mortar, composed of burro manure and sand. This, with the use of a little water, is worked into a pliable mass by the Mexican, and when dry and thick enough molded into the desired shape of the vessel. In drying the composition becomes very porous, and it is this essential characteristic which contain the secret of the cooling process. After having been painted over, both inside and out, by a solution of harmless dye the olla is ready for use It is then filled with water and hung up, preferably in some place which is exposed to the wind, if there is any. In a few minutes the exterior of the jar grows slightly dark with the moisture which has seeped through the porous composition. The seeping process, however, is very slow, and the moisture which exudes evaporates into the receptive, dry atmosphere. In such equable proportion that scarcely more than a drop a minute trickles away from the bottom of the olla. It is this continuous, and fairly rapid evaporation, which produces the cold. Immediately the sides of the olla become chilled, and the water within grows gradually cooler. In less than an hour from the time the phenomenon is begun the water is cold enough for drinking purposes, no matter how warm it might have been when poured into the receptacle. Two or three hours later it is cold enough to fill the ordinary requirements of refrigeration for bottled milk, butter and ordinary culinary necessities.

Well, explained the boss, the man writes: I used to have three bald spots on the top of my head, but since using one bottle of your hair restorer I have only one. To cure scaly legs in fowls, a poultryman says he makes a strong decoction of tobacco stems and places the feet and legs in it while as warm as can be handled, holding them in for a minute or two. This has the advantage over coal oil or carbolic acid, in that it keeps the legs from bleaching. In a time of distressing drought a harassed amateur agriculturist stepped into a shop to buy a barometer. The shopman was giving a few setectyped instructions about indications and pressures, when the purchaser impatiently interrupted him. Yes, yes, said he, that's all right, but what I want to know is, how do you set the thing when you want it to rain? Senator La Follette was talking about two corporations that had been attacking one another in the press. They both scored, he said. They made me think of two prisoners in Atlanta, one of whom had been convicted of stealing a watch, the other of stealing a cow. These two prisoners hatched each other and as they passed one morning in the exercise yard the cow stealer said with a sneer: What time is it? Milking time, the watch stealer answered.
