A TALE OF WOE Olinda 4, Anaheim 2, Was the Score In Sunday's Game The monotonous similarity with which the Anaheim baseball boys have been gathering in the scalps of opposing teams was rudely interrupted last Sunday. Following is the sad tale of the Olinda-Anaheim game handed us by "One who Was Present": The Anaheim baseball team accompanied by about 300 loyal fans journeyed to Olinda and were defeated by the umpire by a score of 4 to 2. Anaheim is given much credit for keeping such a close score against 10 men. Anaheim was practically beaten in the second inning when Umpire Perry gave two of the rarest decisions ever seen on a ball field. Even the Olinda fans hooted at him for his raw work. Had Perry been fair in his decisions two runs would have been scored and maybe more, for once Anaheim gets started scoring its a hard bunch to stop. Instead of this, when Carpenter was safe at first base by at least ten feet, he was called out. Allen hit too hot for the shortstop to handle and reached first base. Etchandy threw high to catch Allen at first, Isbell falling on Allen. Umpire called him out, making two outs. Huntington walked, which would have filled the bases. Goddard hit a long single to right, which would have easily sent in two runs, and then there would still have been two men on bases with the head of the batting list coming up. The decisions were simply awful. Again, in the fifth inning Perry tried to pull off some more rough stuff. BRIEF LOCAL NEWS ITEMS The board of audit will today complete its supplementary report of the water company's business for the past year, which will be included in its regular annual report. The same will be printed and be ready for the annual meeting of stockholders on Saturday. Mr. Neff is installing a forty-horse-power electric motor at his pumping plant southwest of town and will use electricity in future in raising water for irrigating his extensive orchard tract. He will dispense with his present steam pumping plant. His residence, barn and pumphouse will be lighted with electricity. Charles E. Jones has returned from a trip to the Kelso mines in San Bernardino county, where he has had a force of men engaged in doing assessment work. Mr. Jones has made three trips to the mines since November and has brought back some very fine specimens of ore. He believes the company has a valuable mine, and extensive development work will probably be taken up in the near future. A. B. Funk of Spirit Lake, Iowa, who spent several weeks in Southern California last winter, and was the guest of A. C. Pearson, here, is a candidate for United States senator from his state, and received 21 votes on Monday's ballot. Mr. Funk is shy a number of votes, but is considered one of the strongest candidates before the Iowa legislature. He is a progressive republican, and a member of the Cummins wing of the party. A Santa Ana business man was in town the other day and in conversation with a city official, observed: "You have quite a crowd of people high to catch Allen at first, Isbell falling on Allen. Umpire called him out, making two outs. Huntington walked, which would have filled the bases. Goddard hit a long single to right, which would have easily sent in two runs, and then there would still have been two men on bases with the head of the batting list coming up. The decisions were simply awful. Again, in the fifth inning Perry tried to pull off some more rough stuff by calling Carpenter out with Fisher on third, and things looking bad for Olinda, because Henrichs ran behind the catcher while Etchandy was pitching. But here he made a bad mistake, Capt. Lewis and Manager Fisher refusing to continue to play unless he changed the decision, which he had, by rights, to do. This was evidently a new rule invented for the occasion. Olinda started scoring in the first inning, getting two runs. Buzzard reached first on error of Fisher. McLain reached first on error of Fisher. Brown sacrificed the players along a base, going out, Mensenkamp to Henricks. Isbell flewout to Goddard and the throw home was a little wide, both Buzzard and McLain scoring. Crips struck out. In the fifth one run was scored. Lloyd out, Mensenkamp to Henricks. Perry hit for three bases. Etchandy hit a stiff grounder to Lewis which took a bound and Perry scored. Etchandy out, Goddard to Fisher. Craig was out. In the sixth they scored their last run. McLain struck out. Brown hit for two bases; took third on a passed ball and scored when Isbell again struck out to Goddard. Crips struck out. Anaheim scored its two runs in the fifth inning on three safe hits. Mensenkamp flew out to Perry. Lewis hit safe to center but was forced out at second by Henricks. Fisher hit to deep left for three bases, scoring Henricks. And then seeing Anaheim was likely to do something, Perry tried to pull off his new rule. After a wait of ten minutes for arguments, play was resumed. Carpenter hit safe to left, scoring Fisher. Allen lined but to Brown. The ump saw to it that we scored no more. The fans say he is a bloomer. Four double plays were the features of the game, two being pulled off by Buzzard to Perry to Isbell, one by Perry unassisted and one by way of Lewis to Henricks to Carpenter. Three basehits were made by Fisher and Perry while Goddard and Brown each made a two-bagger. A Santa Ana business man was in town the other day and in conversation with a city official, observed: "You have quite a crowd of people here, it was the same on a previous visit of mine some days ago; I believe you have more people in your business district than we have in Santa Ana." The city official: "We have quite a bunch of people here, but have been running a little slack of late; come over some time when we get busy and size us up." E. A. Metcalfe came down from the state laboratory at Whittier on Monday to procure scions from walnut trees in Mr. Neff's orchard showing resistance to blight. Ten thousand scions were taken for shipment to Whittier. These will be shipped to various parts of the state, where top-grafting will soon be in progress. Mr. Neff has already top grafted a number of trees and believes he has solved the blight problem. That the state laboratory is following his example is evidence tending to show confidence in achievement of results. Mr. Neff has pioneered the way in top-grafting. Now the scientists of the state are following in his footsteps. The work of top-grafting will be watched with interest throughout the state. Theo E. Schmidt was seriously injured some days ago while alighting from a street car in front of the residence of his daughter, Mrs. Dr. Bullard, in Los Angeles. He missed his footing and fell to the pavement, injuring his spine and receiving many bruises. He returned home in the evening, and is confined to his bed at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Herman Dickel. An illustrated lecture and sacred concert will be given at the opera house the evening of February 16th, under the auspices of St. Boniface church.

A.W.Danforth came down from Pasadena on Monday evening to attend the sewer-bond meeting.Mr.Danforth is interested in real estate holdings hereabout,and is alive to the importance of getting in the process of Southern California towns.He attended the citizens' meeting and found no opposition to civic improvements,but added on taking the train Tuesday morning that the danger lay,not so much in active opposition to improvements,as in the apathy of people who, thinking bonds will carry,tay away from the polls.Let this excellent advice be heeded,and every voter go to the polls on Monday—and vote right. According to private advices from Sacramento,Orange county may be placed in a senatorial district by itself,which will not be at all objectional to voters hereabout.River-side will probably be joined with Imperial,and this may give Estudillo another swing at the job.Under the courtesy agreement,Estudillo would step down and out at the close of his present term,as should the Thirty-ninth district be maintained as at present organized Orange will nominate the next candidate.While Orange county is a trifle shy on population necessary for a senator,它 is said no other course is open,for Riverside and Orange joined have more than the necessary number.As counties cannot be partly in one legislative district and partly in another,它 seems Orange county will be placed in a senatorial district by itself.At least this is the trend of news which comes down from the state capital. ANAHEIM GAZETTE A number of wealthy residents of Anaheim and Placentia will found an attractive summer resort in the Santa Ana canyon near Seven Oaks. An organization known as the Weesha country club has been formed to secure title to the lands, and articles of incorporation have been taken out. Plans have already been prepared by several of the members for homes of unique design to be erected in time for occupancy in the spring. Houses will be rustic in design, in the bungalow and Swiss chalet styles and most of the plans call for exterior decoration and columns of cobblestone and natural rock. The interiors will be elaborate in many cases with hard wood floors and finish, brick or stone fireplace and first class plumbing. Among the directors of the club and those who have taken active steps towards the perfection of the colony are H. H. Hale, B. V. Beebe, A. L. Porter, P. J. Weisel and G. W. Sandilands. FAVORS STATE DIVISION Stephens Continues to Ride His Pet Hobby Editor Gazette—"What is everybody's business is nobody's business" is a proverb the truthfulness of which is finely illustrated in the matter of taxes here in California. The state is so large in area and population that it is impossible for the people of one section to know what those of another section are doing. Possibly not two men in the whole state study the tax question from the taxpayer's standpoint. The office holders seem to be the only ones who qualify for experts. Unfortunately their sole aim seems to be to search the state as with a microphone if there can be possibly more. ROYAL BAKING POWDER Absolutely Pure The only baking powder made from Royal Grape Cream of Tartar No Alum, No Lime Phosphate MODJESKA'S AUTOBIOGRAPHY Among the recently issued books none have acquired greater popularity than the autobiography of Modjeska, who came to this city in the early 70's from Cracow to seek a new home in the war west. Much has been written of the experiences of the Polish colony, but Modjeska throws a sidelight of interest upon the first conversation had by herself and associates about California. Here it is.

Possibly not two men in the whole state study the tax question from the taxpayer's standpoint. The office holders seem to be the only ones who qualify for experts. Unfortunately their sole aim seems to be to search the state as with a microscope to see if there can be possibly anything left upon which to levy a tax. The taxpayer is never considered except as an unlimited supply for the constantly increasing demands of the ever growing army of office holders. Every taxpayer should study the question. It will put money in his pocket. The returns will be big.Get a copy of the state controller's last report (1910) and read on page 29: Per cent of increase in expenditures of state government in eight years, 93. Page 30: The progressive increase in expenditures has considerably exceeded the rate of increase in population. Page 31: The ordinary expenses of the conducting the government has increased 15 per cent in three years. Page 31: The saving in the cost of legislative sessions effected as a consequence of the constitutional amendment limiting contingent expenses has been somewhat less important than was expected. Page 32: It is probable that a majority of the persons who voted for these propositions realized only imperfectly how radical a departure they have made from former practice. Pages 32-33: The total of the financial obligations assumed in this one election (Nov. 8, 1910) was $34,500,000. Care should be exercised lest the financiering of the next few years involve the treasury in troublesome liabilities. Page 34: State maintenance as well as construction of the highways, ought to insure more careful preservation of the improvements made, but it plunges the state into expenses which are bound to be very large. Several good-roads states recently have reported that an annual expenditure of $400 or $500 per mile is none too much to keep their highways in first class condition. Page 37: All of the schools are costing relatively more than they did a few years since. The remarks go on about high Schools, the university, normal commissions, hospitals, prisons, etc. Page 44: The industrial policy in relation than the autobiography of Modjeska, who came to this city in the early 70's from Cracow to seek a new home in the war west.

It followed a theatrical performance in Poland in 1875: "The party consisted of Sarnecki, Victor Baranski, and several others." "They were all so congenial on that memorable evening, and so jolly, that even I woke up from my torpid state of mind and took part in the conversation. Some one brought news of the coming centennial exposition in America. Sienkiewicz, with his vivid imagination, described the unknown country in the most attractive terms. Maps were brought out and California discussed. It was worth while to hear the young men's various opinions about the Golden West: "You can not die of hunger there, that is quite sure," said one. "Rabbits, hares and partridges are unguarded. You have only to go out and shoot them." "Yes," said another, "and fruits, too, are plenty. Blackberries and the fruit of the cactus grow wild, and they say the latter is simply delicious." "I have heard," said another, "that the fruit of California is at least three times larger than in any other country." "Yes, everything is extraordinary," sounded the reply. "Fancy, coffee grows wild there. All you have to do is pick it; also pepper and the castor-oil bean, and ever so many useful plants. One could make an industry of it." "Besides gold," said a wise voice. "Gold. They say you can dig it out almost anywhere." "There are also rattlesnakes," added Baranski, in a cynical tone of voice. "Yes. But who cares. You can kill them with a stick." "Oh, how brave you are—sitting in this cozy room," said our skeptical friend. "Rattlesnakes are bad, of course, but think of a grizzly bear and a puma, the California jaguar." "What a glorious hunt one could have," exclaimed Sienkiewicz, and then added, "I should like to go and see that country of sunshine and primitive nature." "Every one had to say something about the promised land, and Witkiewicz took a pencil and drew fantastic pictures of my pieces sitting on ficers of the local circle as follows: Elmer Imus G.N., Mrs. H.

Bushard financial secretary, A. Heying recorder, Frank Walter treasurer, C.F.Grim chancellor, Rev. Dubbel chaplain. Install officers were State Dep. White and Dist.-Dep. Burke. A chamber of commerce has been organized at Placentia. At a recent meeting it went on record as favoring the paving of Placentia avenue and other highways in that section, and also endorsed a petition for the establishment of a postoffice in that thriving town. A new bank will be shortly established there, and it is said the application for a postoffice will be granted in the near future by the postoffice department at Washington.

COME ON, GIRLS The Bride of 'Cellist Rodovoy Does a Truly Great Act The press dispatches from Philadelphia, the City of Brotherly Love, contained recently an item which it behooves all our bachelors to read. It contains crumbs of comfort for all bashful swains and a solemn warning for that class of incorrigible male critters who persist in avoiding the responsibilities as well as the joys of matrimony. According to the story, a pretty Philadelphia girl became enamored of the sweet strains that emanated from the violincello of one George Rodovoy, of the opera house in that city.
