ADDITIONAL LOCAL NEWS N. Hart and wife returned on Monday from San Diego after a week's business and pleasure trip in the southland. A. A. Mills drove up to the river on Tuesday morning after the heavy rainfall to see how the new pile-drive embankments were holding at the river. He found the barricades intact, and a large volume of water flowing in the channel. A. W. Danforth returned to his home in Los Angeles this week after spending several days in this vicinity. Mr. Danforth contracted for the pruning of his walnut orchard, and in odd moments devoted attention to Monady's bond election. He was an interested onlooker at the polls during the day, and no small credit for the favorable result was due to his energetic work in favor of the bonds. Capt. H. G. Webb who has resided here for some time past as editor of the California Pythian returned on Monday to his home in Los Angeles. Publication of the monthly journal will be discontinued for the present, but it may be resumed later. Capt. Webb is a graceful writer, and has recently published a book upon the Pythian order, which should be in the hands of every member of the order. It will be copyrighted, and will be on sale at newsdealers in the near future. Widows and widowers strongly favor suburban marriages, according to figures made known this week by Statistician Leslie of the state board of health. The report indicates that brides and grooms who have previously been to the altar are inclined to slip away from their friends when they wish to again marry. The rate of widows and widowers married in San Francisco in 1910 were 23.1 as THE OBERAMMERGAU PASSION PLAY Much has been written describing the actors, the choruses, the scenes of that famous play. The saying, "Beauty ever ancient, beauty ever new" might well be applied to this subject. The story of the suffering Christ appeals at all times to the heart of the christian. The stage wields a great power. Heroes of bygone days, events that moulded our civilization, tragedies illustrating all the passions of the human soul are vividly presented. The audience for the time being, at least, forgets the present. The actor impersonating the mannerism and speech of the grandees of old, transports one in another atmosphere and affects one as though actually witnessing the reality. Impressionless, and emotionless must the person be, who beholds the naturalism and artistic in a genuine star actor and has not felt in his soul, sympathy, love, hatred aroused. Herein, precisely, lies the power of the stage. The influence of the actor in swaying the emotions of the audience. The stage thus considered becomes an educator. It follows, then, the immense good that can be accomplished by the well-regulated stage. The opposite, also, would be true of the perverted stage. Christian hagiology narrates to us, the conversion of the actor Gandenius, the patron of the christian stage. His influence over the pagan audience might be termed a sermon in action. Upon the stage he was as strong as when standing in the arena of the Colosseum at Rome, he died a martyr to his christian faith. The secret of true great acting is, as it were, to live over the life of the person whose actions and words are portrayed. The memories of men and women, who have excelled in the art of acting, narrate how to loose themselves in their subjects have It will be copyrighted, and will be on sale at newsdealers in the near future.

The report indicates that brides and grooms who have previously been to the altar are inclined to slip away from their friends when they wish to again marry. The rate of widows and widowers married in San Francisco in 1910 were 23.1 as compared with 35.4 for San Mateo, 37.3 for Marin county. Los Angeles has a rate of 28.4 previously married couples, while Orange county was 39.3 per 1000 of population. Neill Bailey who since the opening of the Southern Pacific line to the west coast of Mexico has filled the position of assistant superintendent of the road, with headquarters at Guaymas, has been tendered and has accepted the position of superintendent of the United Verde and Pacific railroad, and has moved to Jerome, A.T., to take up his new duties. The appointment was made by W. A. Clark, president of the road. Neill will have a larger sphere of activity, and being a railroadman of experience will without doubt make good in his new position. A. Pierotti was in town on Monday from his ranch at Placentia. Mr. Pierotti states the packing-house of the Placentia orange-growers' association is nearing completion, and makes the fourth large packing-house now built at that progressive town. The building is 100x150 feet and has a capacity of 1600 cars of oranges the season. Its cost is $15,700. He adds Placentia will soon have a postoffice, bank and paved roads. A number of business buildings have been erected, and the new town starts off with every prospect of developing into one of the busiest and best in Southern California. Harry Little was sentenced by Judge Howard on Thursday to ten days in the county jail in connection of having obtained merchandise under false pretenses. W. J. Heinze, his partner, was released, there being no evidence against him. Little purchased a bill of goods at a local store, saying he and Heinze had contracts to do awning work in town. He had no such contracts, and failed to pay. Both men are suspected by the police of other crimes, but no evidence could be secured to convict them. George Click and Emelio Crespin were sent to the detention home by Superior Judge West on Friday. The patron of the church His influence over the pagan audience might be termed a sermon in action. Upon the stage he was as strong as when standing in the arena of the Colosseum at Rome, he died a martyr to his christian faith. The secret of true great acting is, as it were, to live over the life of the person whose actions and words are portrayed. The memories of men and women, who have excelled in the art of acting, narrate how to loose themselves in their subjects have frequented graveyards, dungeons, the desert place or mingled in the turmoil of traffic, so that when standing before the footlights they might breathe and move in the air of naturalism. The greatest of religious dramas of our day, is beyond question, the grand performance of the Passion Play given at Oberammergau. Over 300,000 visitors last year pilgrimaged, so to speak, from all parts of the world, to be instructed and edified by these upright villagers. The almost universal verdict of the multitude who flocked thither, might be summed up in the words, "It was grand." Many a resolution was made to impart to others at home what they had seen. Our people at Anaheim will have an opportunity on February 16, 1911, at the opera house, at the illustrated lecture and Sacred Concert, to hear in word picture and see in the stereoptic views a full description of the Play. Tickets may be had at Heying Brothers drug store. STEPHENS RIDES HIS HOBBY Talking in His Sleep About State Division—Will Recover Editor Gazette.-It costs the ten counties of Southern California more than six times as much to remain in the old state than it would to be a separate state. The truth of this statement has been proven many times by the incontestable and undeniable evidence of the figures of official reports. In 1909 Southern California paid $3,156,024.78 into the state treasury, a greater sum than was required to run the states of Florida, Idaho, Mississippi, New Hampshire, Vermont, Utah and Wyoming the same year. State division would keep all this money in the south, and it can be shown that a state the size of Southern California can be run for less than $500,000 per year. In 1906 Delaware cost only $422,241. B. A. Stephens. WEST COULDN'T SEE IT WEST COULDN'T SEE IT Martina Valenzuela, the Mexican woman who was brutally beaten a few days ago by Frank Marquez near Villa Park, visited the office of the district attorney and asked to have the case against Marquez dismissed. The woman said she does not propose to live any longer with Marquez, but she don't want him to stay in jail, and would therefore ask to have the case dropped. District Attorney West replied he could not see the matter in the same light and the case will come to trial Thursday morning. SANTA ANA A combination mailcar, smoker and baggage coach of the Southern Pacific was almost destroyed by fire on Saturday night. The fire department was called to the depot the first time at about 11 o'clock, fire in the stove having started the flames in the ceiling of the car. The wood was all taken away and the fire put out. The department again was called about 2.45 a.m., the fire in the stove having been rekindled. This time the car was so badly damaged that it will be of no use. It is thought a tramp must have obtained entrance and lighted the fires. HAS NO SUBSTITUTE ROYAL BAKING POWDER Absolutely Pure The only baking powder made from Royal Grape Cream of Tartar NO ALUM, NO LIME PHOSPHATE SUGAR MAGNATES HERE President Warner Arrives from New York and Visits Plant C. M. Warner, president of the Anaheim Sugar Company, A. R. Peck and Frederick Steigerwald, president of the construction company now engaged in erecting factory buildings, arrived from New York on Monday and in company of Manager Hadsell visited the plant. This was the first visit of Messrs. Warner and Peck to the plant, and they expressed themselves as being delighted with the progress made. Upward of 100 men are engaged on the buildings and excellent headway is being made. These three gentlemen will make headquarters in Los Angeles, and will make periodical visits here. Mr. Steigerwald comes daily and is giving to Build? Art of Managing Men the Only One that She Studies A Japanese wife is more than a wife. She is an artist, says Adachi Kinnosoke. She is an artist in that most difficult of arts—and the most needful—the art of handling men. It is the consuming ambition of her life. For it and in it she lives. The woman of Pippon is not notably attractive in either face or figure. She suffers a severe handicap in comparison with English and American women. Therefore she does the next best thing—she displays policy. I believe your word for it is tact. Of the woman of Japan there is one, just one, opinion among her judges—especially among her foreign critics: As a wife she is all gentleness and lovableness. This is quite remarkable, coming from men the world around. Whatever may be their criticisms on other things they are all praise for the Japanese woman as a wife. There are more reasons than one. In the first place, she is a past mistress in the art of commanding the men, only in her case it is no longer an art—it is second nature with her. The basic, elemental qualification of a great commander of men, east and west, is and always has been this—to know how to obey. Everybody is aware of that. Even Napoleon knew that. Greater than he who saw St. Helena after seeing Austerlitz, the Japanese woman acts out what she knows—what she knows so well and has known so long that she is no longer even conscious of it. Going to Build? Or Do You Want to Invest arrived from New York on Monday and in company of Manager Hadsell visited the plant. This was the first visit of Messrs. Warner and Peck to the plant, and they expressed themselves as being delighted with the progress made. Upward of 100 men are engaged on the buildings and excellent headway is being made. These three gentlemen will make headquarters in Los Angeles, and will make periodical visits here. Mr. Steigerwald comes daily and is giving his personal attention to the erection of the buildings. Six carloads of new machinery arrived on Monday from the east, making 37 carloads of machinery already arrived. Seventy carloads will be forwarded in addition to those already received. Much of this is already on the way. The machinery is being installed by a force of expert mechanics. Rains of the week have materially improved prospects of a favorable beet season, and from all viewpoints the factory's first season promises to be most successful. The beet-slicing capacity will be 600 tons daily. Next year it will be increased to 1200 daily. ATHLETICS A meeting of the young men of Anaheim, who are interested in athletics, will be held in the Y. M.C.A. hall, on Monday evening, Feb. 6, for the purpose of organizing the work, so as to carry on both indoor and open-air sports. Mr. Culp, vice-president of the local Y.M.C.A., and other officers interested in the work will be present, and it is hoped that many of the young men of the city will attend. The presence of boys under 14 is not desired on Monday evenings. UNCLAIMED LETTERS Yorba Linda Water Co., B. W. Taylor, Mrs. C. Pardee, Jesus Ortiz, Frank E. Folley, Wayne Glover, Mrs. John E.
