Offers Free County Switching Under Conditions—Sewer Committee to Meet with Trustees Tonight — Many Communications Received—Other Notes of Meeting The committee appointed at a recent meeting of the board of directors of the chamber of commerce to draw up a complaint embodying Anaheim's objections to the present train service on the Santa Fe railroad, and submit it to the proper officials, reported progress at the regular meeting of the board Monday evening. This action was taken on the suggestion of J. J. Byrne, assistant general passenger agent, who is anxious to learn what Anaheim wants, and who promised to grant the request if practicable. Following is the complaint forward me literature of your locality. P. S.—How is the climate on rheumatism? I have it bad here. Too cold, too changeable. Yes, I am coming to Southern California. Look out for me." At least a score of communications were read, most of them from parties desirous of settling here and engaging in all sorts and conditions of business. They were all turned over to the corresponding secretary for reply. The committee appointed to assist the Ebell club in its efforts to build a public park in Anaheim was granted an extension of time not yet being ready to report. Chairman Weisel was appointed a committee of one to procure a heating stove for the purpose of throwing a little warmth into the proceedings at future meetings. MR. HALPERN COUGHED UP Gave Several Bad Checks, Which he Made Good, With Costs A party composed of Constable Kellenberger, F. A. Yungbluth, Jesse Alexander and Ben Birenbaum went to San Bernardino on Friday afternoon to interview one Clifford J. Halpern, recently a highflyer here, who issued several fictitious checks in payment of bills contracted here. DESPERADO SAIZ TAKEN BEYOND THE BORDER CULPRIT REARRESTED 60 MILES SOUTH OF SAN DIEGO Deputy Sheriff Cervantes a week on Mexican Soil Seeking Escaped Murderer—Assisted by Lower California Officials—Macias Located, and Will Be Taken in Few Days — Rope for Bandit, Jailed Yesterday Rosario Saiz, murderer of Jose Machado, who escaped from the county jail a month ago, was taken into custody by Mexican officials working in conjunction with Deputy Sheriff Cervantes, on Monday night, sixty miles south of San Diego, across the Mexican border. He was turned over to Cervantes, who returned with him to San Diego, and yesterday lodged him in the county jail at Santa Ana. Macias, who escaped with Saiz, is located, and will be probably taken in a few days. It has been known for several days that Cervantes had quietly gone south in search of the escapes. A close friend told me... of the chamber of commerce to draw up a complaint embodying Anaheim's objections to the present train service on the Santa Fe railroad, and submit it to the proper officials, reported progress at the regular meeting of the board Monday evening. This action was taken on the suggestion of J. J. Byrne, assistant general passenger agent, who is anxious to learn what Anaheim wants, and who promised to grant the request if practicable. Following is the complaint or request presented to the railway officials by the committee: Anaheim, Cal., Oct. 27. J. J. Byrne, Los Angeles:— Dear Sir.—In response to your suggestion a committee was appointed by the Anaheim chamber of commerce with instructions to investigate the local Santa Fe schedule and recommend changes in accordance with the wishes of the people. We find the following to be the principal objections: 1. The slow and uncertain service of north bound train leaving Anaheim at 7:59 a.m., and of the south bound train arriving at Anaheim at 5:50 p.m. 2. The above mentioned are not through trains. 3. There is no north bound train between 7:59 and 11:58 a.m. We earnestly request that the two above mentioned trains be kept promptly up to schedule time, and that they be made through trains between Anaheim and Los Angeles. In addition to his we recommend that the following changes be made: 1. That the north bound train leaving Santa Ana at 5:02 p.m. stop at Anaheim and do local evening work. 2. That the north bound train leaving Anaheim at 5:22 be changed to a morning train to pass through Anaheim at about 10 a.m. Trusting that these recommendations may meet with your approval, and that your passeenger service may attain its former standard of excellence we remain, very truly yours, H. V. Weisel, A. A. Mills. The committee appointed at a previous meeting to confer with Home telephone company reported that it had been informed by General Manager Ellis and County Manager Jos. Backs that the Home company would install a switch at Garden Grove and give Anaheim free switching facilities with that place. Furthermore, Mr. Ellis pledged his company to give a free switch throughout the entire county provided the city of Orange MR. HALPERN COUGHED UP Gave Several Bad Checks, Which he Made Good, With Costs A party composed of Constable Kellenberger, F. A. Yungbluth, Jesse Alexander and Ben Birenbaum went to San Bernardino on Friday afternoon to interview one Clifford J. Halpern, recently a highflyer here, who issued several fictitious checks in payment of bills contracted here. Halpern owed Yungbluth $42 for clothing, Ahlbord & Raymond $7.50 for an overcoat and about $10 to Hill and Hahn for livery hire. The checks all came back after Mr. Halpern had left town. He was located at San Bernardino. Kellenberger and party drove to Santa Ana in an auto and procured three warrants against Halpern charging felony. They started up the canyon at 3 o'clock, arriving at San Bernardino at 8. Halpern was speedily found. He made many excuses, and promised to pay the following morning. Kellenberger remained with him, and the rest of the party returned, losing their way and being out all night. They arrived here at 7 o'clock on Saturday morning. Three hours after leaving San Bernardino they hauled up at Colton in the early morning hours. The only evidence of life in the town was an engine on a sliding. One of the boys pulled the whistle cord; and the engineer and fireman came running out of the freight shed. At first they thought it was a hold-up. The boys were directed upon the roadway, given their bearings and headed for Anaheim southwest by west. The sun was climbing over Saddleback as they reached the city gates. Kellenberger spent the night in San Bernardino. Halpern dug up the money on Saturday, paying the amount of bills and costs, amounting to $25, and was glad to escape arrest on those terms. Kellenberger returned in the evening. Halpern was a highflyer, here a month ago. He blew in the beautiful dinero without stint, and when funds ran short, the ready checkbook was produced. As he gave Yungbluth a phoney check for $42, the latter jokingly observed: "How do I know this check is good?" Halpern felt greatly hurt, apparently, and offered to produce the cash The cheek was accepted. Unlike Mr. Jeffries, it came back. Then the boys resolved to call upon Mr. Halpern. It has been known for several days that Cervantes had quietly gone south in search of the escapes. A close personal friend, speaking of his courage, said no man in Orange county was better qualified to take Salz than Cervantes. He crossed the border alone, having been assured by the governor of Lower California that all necessary assistance would be rendered him by Mexican officers. At Tia Juana he headed south in a racing automobile, armed with a brace of revolvers and a winchester. Salz is known as one of the most expert rifle sots in Southern California, and feats performed by him with a revolver and rifle are told by many; but it is doubtful if he has anything on Cervantes, according to local officers, who is not a novice in rapid firing. Cervantes brought Salz back from Ensenada early in the year, after the murderer had escaped across the border, subsequent to the killing of Machado. Salz was delivered to Cervantes at Ensenada. Cervantes told Salz that if he behaved himself he would land him safely in jail, without outside molestation, but if he attempted to escape it would mean a dead desperado. In official circles it is thought Salz will hang for his many crimes. Deputy Sheriff Cervantes has been a week in the Ensenada mountains on the trail of Rosario Saiz and his pal Macias, who escaped from the county jail a month ago. After running down all clews at home, Cervantes received information that the escapes had been seen at Tia Juana, headed for Ensenada, on the road to which place Salz's father farms a ranch. He took the train for San Diego, proceeded to Tia Juana and headed south across the line in an auto hotfoot after the desperadoes. Mexican officials have assured him of their assistance, as they are anxious to return Salz into custody. According to Santos Carrisosa, who was among the first to take up the search for Salz, that worthy headed straight for the Mexican line immediately after his escape from jail.The first night out Saiz and Macias made El Modena, and here, Carrisosa says, A. A. Mills. The committee appointed at a previous meeting to confer with Home telephone company reported that it had been informed by General Manager Ellis and County Manager Jos. Backs that the Home company would install a switch at Garden Grove and give Anaheim free switching facilities with that place. Furthermore, Mr. Ellis pledged his company to give a free switch throughout the entire county provided the city of Orange removed its embargo and permitted the Home company to do business there. The committee therefore recommended that the matter be taken up with associated chambers of commerce and that all the towns in Orange county be asked to work together for free switching service. The sewer committee reported that it would meet with the city trustees this evening and endeavor to interest that body in the system recently endorsed by the chamber of commerce Messrs. Mills, Eygabroad and Holcomb are the committee. The associated chambers of commerce will meet in Anaheim on Wednesday evening, November 30, and the usual banquet will be given by the local chamber. The board unanimously agreed that something better than a tin-plate spread should be offered their guests, and the entertainment committee was instructed to order a feed that will gladden the heart of the hungriest man. Members of the Anaheim chamber are urged to attend and assist in making this entertainment such that a pleasant taste will linger in the mouths of the visitors until the next banquet is given. A letter from a disgusted resident of Vermont whose eye had been caught by an Anaheim ad in an eastern paper, read: "You bet I am going to California as soon as I can sell out. Please." Halpern felt greatly hurt, apparently, and offered to produce the cash The check was accepted. Unlike Mr. Jeffries, it came back. Then the boys resolved to call upon Mr. Halpern at San Bernardino. PLAYING WITH MATCHES Children Cause Destruction of Jos. Thompson's Residence With fire hose falling short 300 feet, an abundance of water and pressure sufficient to more than extinguish the flames which enveloped it, the residence occupied by Joseph Thompson on South Lemon street burned to the ground on Friday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock. The fire department was on the scene within a few minutes after the alarm. Hose was attached to the nearest hydrant at the corner of Lemon and Santa Ana Sts., and though several hundred feet in length, it was too short to be of service, and the efforts of the firemen were directed to saving furniture in the burning building. The fire was probably caused by children playing with matches in the kitchen. Mr. Thompson, who is employed by the Standard oil company, is certain the fire was not caused by an explosion of gasoline, although there was a gasoline stove in the kitchen. He was one of the first upon the scene, and assisted in carrying out the furniture. A little girl was sleep in the bedroom at the time of the fire, but was carried out by neighbors. The tankhouse ignited, but the precedent to Tia Juana and headed south across the line in an auto hotfoot after the desperadoes. Mexican officials have assured him of their assistance, as they are anxious to return Saiz into custody, According to Santos Carrisosa, who was among the first to take up the search for Saiz, that worthy headed straight for the Mexican line immediately after his escape from jail. The first night out Saiz and Macias made El Modena, and here, Carrisosa says, they were hidden within ten feet of the searchers as they passed in the man hunt. Carrisosa and Valenzuela, commissioned by Sheriff Lacy to kill Saiz on sight, went into the Santiago canyon, and crossed over into the Trabuco, following the tracks of the desperadoes. One was on horseback the other on a bicycle. South of the Trabuco the tracks were lost, Carrisosa returned, having been informed that Saiz had backtracked hitherward. It was some days thereafter that Lacy learned that Saiz and Macias had crossed the San Juan range and headed south. They were proceeding slowly, the man on the bicycle being flames were speedily extinguished. The house is owned by Godfrey Betz, who lived in a residence near the burned building. His residence was not injured. The loss is probably $2000, and there was no insurance upon building or furniture. Mrs. Thompson was in town shopping at the time, with her youngest child. She went immediately to her home, but was powerless to stay the spread of the flames. The structure was an old one, and was many years ago occupied by Madame Modjeska and Count Bozenta on their arrival here from Poland.

Escaped with Saiz, is will be probably taken known for several days had quietly gone of the escapes. evidently unaccustomed to the wheel. San Diego officers were notified, but the two were next reported as having been seen at Tia Juana. After running down local clews Cervantes crossed the line in search of the man whom he brought back from Ensenada a year ago, after his escape from this county. Between Saiz and his captor there exists bitter feeling, and Carrisosa said before he had heard Saiz was taken, there would be something doing when the two men met. Saiz was captured at Ticarte; 40 miles below the Mexican line, by rurales, as he slept on Monday evening. He was in charge of a party of five contraband Chinese, headed up north with them, and was being searched for by Mexican officers. He was covered with guns and was taken into custody without a fight. Cervantes was on the lookout for him, with a party of heavily armed rurales, having learned that Saiz was headed north with a band of Chinese. Cervantes was immediately notified. He went to Ticarte, and Saiz was turned over to him. The Chinese were taken into custody by rurales. Cervantes set out for Tia Juana with Saiz a second time his prisoner, and arrived at the village just across the border early on Tuesday. SKIN FOR GRAFTING WANTED BY PHYSICIANS LITTLE GIRL BURNED BY ELECTRIC WIRE IN CRITICAL CONDITION Schoolmates Ready to Donate Particles of Cuticle to Assist in Healing Denuded Surfaces—Appeal to Kindly Disposed People to Appear On Friday Afternoon to Assist Patient on Way to Recovery—Only tiny Particles to Be Taken, and Operation is Practically Painless One Physicians at the Anaheim sanitation will on Friday next, between the hours of 12 and 2, graft skin upon the denuded parts of the body of Audrey Waidler, the little fourteen-year-old girl who was burned by a high-voltage wire of the Edison company three weeks ago on Orange-thorpe avenue while on her way to school. The little girl is getting on well, and the physicians have every hope for her recovery. There are several places where the skin was so badly burned that grafting will have Deputy Sheriff Cerriay night, sixty miles Diego, across the Mexico was turned over to returned with him to yesterday lodged him at Santa Ana.

Cervantes set out for Tia Juana with Saiz a second time his prisoner, and arrived at the village just across the border early on Tuesday. He proceeded to San Diego by the first train, and came north yesterday. Marshal Simpson was notified on Monday to hold himself in readiness to proceed immediately to the Mexican line, as there was a prospect of taking Saiz into custody. Simpson was prepared to proceed thither on Monday night in a racing auto, but shortly before midnight was notified the desperado had been taken. UP TO ADJUTANT-GENERAL Petition for New Company Under Consideration at Sacramento Dr. Wells who has taken a leading part in the effort to locate in this city an infantry company of the national guard said this week that the petition is now under consideration by Adjutant-General Lauck at Sacramento. Action upon the petition will probably be taken in the near future, as soon as office work following the Atascadero encampment should have been completed. Report is looked for before the end of the month. According to rumor Los Angeles is an aspirant for another company, and it is said a petition from that city was forwarded to the adjutant-general's office a few days after the muster-out of company E. Dr. Wells who is slated to be captain of the new company here, should it be mustered into service, said yesterday that he had had a personal interview with Col. Schreiber this week, but that that official refused to commit himself. It is believed that if Schreiber affixed his O.K. to the petition, Lauck will approve it, for Schreiber is the big noise in Southern California military affairs. “If Los Angeles tries to beat us to it in this new company,” said a local guardsman yesterday, “it will not exert a beneficial influence upon the guard in this part of the state. That city has already four infantry companies, a troop of cavalry, a signal corps and a company of naval militia—seven in all. One of the infantry com-Physicians at the Anahiem sanitarium will on Friday next, between the hours of 12 and 2, graft skin upon the denuded parts of the body of Audrey Waldler, the little fourteen-year-old girl who was burned by a high-voltage wire of the Edison company three weeks ago on Orange-thorpe avenue while on her way to school. The little girl is getting on well, and the physicians have every hope for her recovery. There are several places where the skin was so badly burned that grafting will have to be resorted to. It is desired that as many persons who are willing to part with portions of their cuticle be present and donate the same for the benefit of the little sufferer. The operation is slight, as we are informed by Dr. Johnston, and only small particles of skin will be taken from those who offer it. These may be adults or school children. Formerly, the doctor states, the entire denuded portions were grafted over, but later experience proves that smaller particles used at intervals are preferable. These parts grow together and serve the same purpose as when larger particles are used. Taking of cuticle from those desirous of donating it is accompanied by no more pain than in the operation of vaccination, and no ill effects will probably follow. Among the little girl's schoolmates at Orangethorpe the sentiment prevails that an abundance of skin for grafting will be offered by her associates, and probably many children will be present to offer succor to the patient, who, while progressing favorably at the hospital, lies dangerously ill. She was burned while on her way to school, when near the residence of Charles Baxter on Orangethorpe avenue she came upon a high voltage wire lying across the road. It had been blown down during a wind the previous night, and neighbors say the electric company had been notified of the danger early in the morning. As she approached the wire she sought to pick it up and place it out of the road, when she was burned so badly that it was at first feared she would not recover. Mr. and Mrs. Baxter ran to her assistance, and medical aid summoned. She was later brought into the sanitarium. Recovery has been slow, and at a consultation of physicians on Monday it was decided to skin graft the burned surfaces. If no donations are offered, it will be necessary to take cuticle from the body of the patient. Those willing to offer donations may call at the sanitarium on Friday Uuana and headed the line in an auto hot-water peradoes. Mexican assured him of their assistance are anxious to re-estudy, Santos Carrisosa, who first to take up the that worthy headed Mexican line immediate escape from jail.

His residence probably $2000, and insurance upon building was in town shop-place, with her youngest child immediately to her powerless to stay the flames. It was an old one, and ago occupied by Madam Count Bozenta on fire from Poland. O. K. to the petition, Lauck will approve it, for Schrelber is the big noise in Southern California military affairs. “If Los Angeles tries to beat us to it in this new company,” said a local guardsman yesterday, “it will not exert a beneficial influence upon the guard in this part of the state. That city has already four infantry companies, a troop of cavalry, a signal corps and a company of naval militia—seven in all. One of the infantry companies is on the carpet, and may be mustered out. I believe these companies ought to be recruited up to their maximum strength, instead of mustering in another company, which would inevitably draw from their strength. Los Angeles has the brigade and regimental headquarters, as well as other militia honors, and I think it ought to give the outside cities a square deal, especially as Anaheim has 61 signatures to its petition for a new coompany, 40 of whom are experienced members of the guard.” Orange and Whittier, which were after the new company after the muster-out of Company E, seem to have been lost in the shuffle. The fight seems to be between Anaheim and Los Angeles. WORKING ON SUGAR FACTORY Schindler & Son have a force of mechanics engaged upon foundations for the new main and office buildings for the sugar factory. Work upon the former was completed this week, and the force are now at work upon the larger building. It is expected the railroad spur will be laid into the yard by the Santa Fe within a few days, when brick and other materials will be hauled in and a large force of bricklayers put to work. Recovery has been slow, and at a consultation of physicians on Monday it was decided to skin graft the burned surfaces. If no donations are offered, it will be necessary to take cuticle from the body of the patient. Those willing to offer donations may call at the sanitarium on Friday between 12 and 2 o'clock. It is supposed the wire is the same one which burned George Kaminski to death a year ago while engaged with a fumigating outfit on the avenue. The outfit had driven out of an orchard where it had been at work, seeking to turn about in the thoroughfare and return on another row of trees. The wheels of the wagon crashed through a bridge, throwing the upright against the high-voltage wire overhead. In an attempt to dislodge it, the man was killed.
