HOTEL PROSPECTS GROWING BRIGHTER
UNIQUE PROPOSITION BY THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE BOARD
Forming Stock Company to Erect Tourist Hotel on El Camino Real—Plans Borrowed from the Classic Banks of the Rhine—Committee to Act With Merchants Association—New Board of Directors Elect Oscar Renner President — Notes
The old board of directors of the chamber of commerce wound up its business and passed into history on Monday evening, and the newly elected members assumed their mantles, elected officers and plunged into business.
Messrs. Renner, Falkenstein, Holcomb and Eygabroad were the holdover members of the old board, and the newly-elected members are Chas. F. Grim, C. Z. Vander Horck, Homer G. Ames, B. V. Beebe and N. B. Tedford. After the adjournment of the old board the new one organized by election of Oscar Renner as president, C. F. Grim vice president, and C. Z. Vander Horck secretary and asking unreasonable things. As grain can be shipped to Los Angeles, ground into flour and the flour shipped to Anaheim for much less than the grain could be shipped to Anaheim it was denied that the rate was just or reasonable; and furthermore that the Anaheim chamber of commerce never asked unreasonable things of the railroads.
The matter was then taken up with the Santa Fe officials who acknowledged that the present rates were both unjust and unreasonable, but owing to traffic arrangements, it would be difficult to adjust them. They, however, agreed to give a rate out of Anaheim that would compensate for the unjust rate in. This was given to a few local points but was not sufficient for the promoters of the mill. Today they decided to abandon the project for the present. Apparently the terminal rate must be abolished by law before we can hope to get any factories of any kind.
Mr. Eygabroad introduced the subject of Anaheim's exhibits in the Los Angeles chamber of commerce. The exhibit, he said, did not do justice to the town and as thousands of tourists and home-seekers passed through the place every day he believed we should have an attractive display there.

Messrs. Renner, Falkenstein, Holcomb and Eygabroad were the holdover members of the old board, and the newly-elected members are Chas. F. Grim, C. Z. Vander Horck, Homer G. Ames, B. V. Beebe and N. B. Tedford. After the adjournment of the old board the new one organized by election of Oscar Renner as president, C. F. Grim vice president, and C. Z. Vander Horck secretary and treasurer.
Before the retirement of the old board several committee reports were heard, the most important being the hotel committee. The committee is composed of Messrs. Weisel and Abbey, and although little has been said about it recently those gentlemen have been at work, have perfected their plans and submitted the result to the board.
The plans adopted and submitted by the committee are unique. It is proposed to form a stock company with a capitalization of $50,000, and a considerable portion of the stock has already been pledged. The hotel is designed for tourist rather than commercial traffic. It will be patterned after the famous hostelries on the Rhine in Germany, and it is said there is but one hotel similar to it in the United States—at San Antonio, Texas—and it has become famous throughout the country.
As the ancient highway, El Camino Real, is an artery through which passes so many tourist automobile parties each day it is proposed to build on that road, and the first choice of a location was a portion of the Zeyn property, at the corner of Los Angeles and Sycamore streets. The committee has secured an option on twenty lots of this property, the price being $17,500, but Mr. Holcomb, the present owner, put a spoke in the wheel by stating that he would not sell lots for hotel or business purposes. Other sites are under consideration, however, and negotiations for the next best will be taken up. The committee was continued and will work in conjunction with a similar committee from the merchants association. The entire committee consists of H. V. Weisel, Earl Abbey, Wm. Kreuscher, Adolph Thomas, Audubon Valjean and Welborn Wallop, and it is probable that something definite will be reported at the meeting of the merchants Monday evening.
The following resolution was introduced by A. A. Mills and adopted:

Mr. Eygabroad introduced the subject of Anaheim's exhibits in the Los Angeles chamber of commerce. The exhibit, he said, did not do justice to the town and as thousands of tourists and home-seekers passed through the place every day he believed we should have an attractive display there.
The proposition to consolidate the chamber of commerce with the merchants association met with the approval of the board and a committee was selected to confer with the merchants and effect a merger if possible.
The Pacific land and products exhibition which will be held in Los Angeles from March 18 to April 2, requested the Anaheim chamber to take cognizance of the fact and send an Anaheim representative. Holcomb and Eygabroad were appointed as a committee to handle the matter.
Messrs. Weisel and Eygabroad were appointed to represent the Anaheim chamber on the associated chambers board, Eygabroad serving one year and Weisel two.
C. A. Turk, a marble cutter of Santa Maria, has been making enquiries about Anaheim and wants to remove his yard here. He wanted to know a few things about competition, etc.
Mr. Eygabroad reported that the Iowa friend whom he recently reported as desirous of opening a loan office and possibly a bank in Anaheim had packed up his household goods and was now on the way here.
HIGH SCHOOL DOINGS
Last Friday evening L. O. Culp gave a dinner to the members of the high school basket ball team at his home on Hedwig street. Mrs. Culp prepared and served a dinner which all present declare the "best ever." Will Webb was elected captain of the basketball team and various plans for other athletics discussed. Those present were Messrs. Tipton, Goble, Howard, Northland, Elliot, Greder, Webb, E. Spencer, Yorba, Rannow and Beebe. The guests departed declaring Mr. and Mrs. Culp to be the best of entertainers.
The baseball game at Downey on Saturday between the teams of Anaheim and Downey high schools was won by Downey. Errors by Anaheim in the first two innings let in five runs. Later the local team settled down and gave the Downey aggregated by law before we can hope to get any factories of any kind.

The following resolution was introduced by A. A. Mills and adopted:
Resolved, that in order to promote the co-extensive interests of northern Orange county, the Anaheim chamber of commerce requests our ice dealers to purchase their ice of the Fullerton ice plant, provided the price and product is right; and in return that we ask the Fullerton chamber of commerce to reciprocate and ask the Fullerton people to patronize our steam laundry to the full extent of their trade.
Further, that we ask our merchants and their patrons to use the products of the Olive mills where they do not compete with Anaheim products, when ever possible, provided the prices are right and the products are of equal grade with other products now on the market.
The committee appointed at a previous meeting to negotiate for a flour mill reported through its chairman, Mr. Mills, as follows:
In conjunction with the parties who contemplated building a flour mill the matter was taken up with Mr. Graham, of the Southern Pacific railroad, and his company was requested to make a reasonable rate to Anaheim. The present rate is unjust and unreasonable. Mr. Graham said he was the judge in such matters and decided the present rates were just and reasonable, and the chamber of commerce was always sent were Messrs. Tipton, Goble, Howard, Northland, Elliot, Greder, Webb, E. Spencer, Yorba, Rannow and Beebe. The guests departed declaring Mr. and Mrs. Culp to be the best of entertainers.
The baseball game at Downey on Saturday between the teams of Anaheim and Downey high schools was won by Downey. Errors by Anaheim in the first two innings let in five runs. Later the local team settled down and gave the Downey aggregation a good game. Webb pitched for the locals, striking out 11 men. Downey's pitcher is one of the best in Southern California and showed us some of the latest curves, striking out 16 men. Except for the errors in the first inning, the Anaheim nine came near getting Downey's goat. Final score 5-0.
Preliminary tryouts were held on Monday afternoon for the debate with Long Beach on March 24. Seven contestants were entered and good work was shown by all. The students selected to represent Anaheim are Hans Storm and Howard Gates.
Anaheim now stands eighth of the schools in the debating league and is probably out of the running for the championship this year, but we expect to defeat Long Beach this time and even up the score with the beach town. The debate will be held at Long Beach, March 24. The question, Resolved, that a limited parcels post should be established. We have taken the negative.
The girls tennis club enjoyed a social evening at the home of Misses Lacy on Philadelphia street Saturday evening. Varied games were played and several musical selections were rendered much to the enjoyment of the twenty guests present.
The expense is around $350 new building running 30 patient capacity ses will not more than other words, with th ed the earnings will creased. This is a ing, for had the institu in paying expenses a year of operation it unusual.

FOUR MONTH'S WORK PROVES IT SUCCESS

Financial Sidelights Bring Confirmatory Evidence Attesting Progress Made at Sanitarium—Investment of $13,000 Yields Monthly Income of $500 During Infancy of Institution—Enlargement to Follow in Order to Accommodate Constantly Increasing Number of Patients at Hospital
When a few of our leading citizens first broached their idea of establishing a modern sanitarium in Anaheim, there were those who scoffed and predicted failure. Later when these gentlemen after a careful study of the situation, decided to go ahead with the enterprise and out of their personal funds purchased the property on the corner of Chartres and Hermine streets, in the heart of the city; there were still some who said that a sanitarium could not exist in Anaheim.
After about four months operation, however, even the most skeptical must admit that not only can a sanitarium exist in Anaheim but that it can be very successful, for with the large residence which occupies the sanitarium site made over into patients' quarters, operating room, etc.
BILL HILL IN LUCK
Harrows In Grain at La Habra, Much Rain Falls Upon It
W. J. Hill has 100 acres of barley at La Habra which he harrowed in previous to the beginning of last month's rain. When the grain had been seeded rains began falling, and to date seven inches more have descended upon the tract. In consequence he looks for an excellent crop. Not so many years ago Mr. Hill sowed 2000 acres to barley, and was one of the largest grain farmers in Orange county.
"The area sown to grain in this valley is lessening right along," said he this week, "on account of the expanding orchard area, but the foothill country is being seeded to grain, where formerly it was given over entirely to grazing. At El Toro and Trabuco large areas have been seeded. Plows are being run on hillsides now where formerly we thought a goat could not climb. This is the best land in Southern California, and I look for an excellent yield.
"That was a fine rain which fell on my barley, and I look for a pretty good crop. The barley is up, and looks like it will turn out plenty of grain."

Marshal Simpson will at the city trustees' meeting Thursday evening tender his resignation, the same to take effect March 10th, after the month's licenses, fees, water and electric light charges have been collected. It is understood that Constable Kellenberger is slated to succeed him. Simpson will have held the office eleven months, he having been elected at the city election last April.

After about four months operation, however, even the most skeptical must admit that not only can a sanitarium exist in Anaheim but that it can be very successful, for with the large residence which occupies the sanitarium, site made over into patients' quarters, operating room, etc., but with few of the conveniences to come with the beautiful new building to be erected on the Hermine street frontage, the report of the first four months is a very flattering tribute both from a professional or medical standpoint and from the financial side, to the ability and good judgment of the men who have just begun to carry out their far reaching plans. Out of the total of 72 patients handled 44 had operations performed. The financial side is just as bright, for with a total investment of $13,000 the average monthly income has been $550. The sanitarium has been unable to accommodate those seeking admission and every effort is being made to hurry the plans for the new building to completion so that by some date early in the summer there may be ample accommodations for those who wish to enter.
When seen by a Gazette representative both Drs. Johnston and Beebe were buried in blue prints and drawings, and were glad to give out any information desired by this paper. Their thoughts were wholly taken up with the medical success of the institution and they went over the plans carefully, drawing attention to the rooms on the ground floor devoted to Thermo-Therapy (which in plain English means treatment by hot air), Electro-Therapy, Massage, Hydro Therapy, and Mechanotherapy, the operating room, the diet kitchens, the roof garden, the nurses' quarters, the solarium, the triple signal system and the thousand and one things intended to make the life of the patient one continuous round of pleasure and eventually effect a cure and send him or her out into the world a new creature.
After all this had been discussed, however, they finally consented to enter the financial side of the undertaking and admitted that as a money making proposition it was an exceptionally attractive one. The net earnings have been over $200 per month, or about 20 per cent per annum on the investment. The monthly expense is around $250 and with the ed.

Sunday School Children Give Entertainment at Presbyterian Church
The newly organized Sunday school class of Mrs. U. S. Lemon, known as the "G.R.C." class of the Presbyterian Sunday school, entertained on Monday evening with a George Washington social. The Sunday schoolroom was decorated with greenery, flags, tiny hatchets and cherry trees ladened with their bright fruit. A half dozen booths were arranged in the classrooms from which candy, peanuts, popcorn, lemonade and hatchets were sold by the enthusiastic class who realized that their first effort was to raise a fund. This proved a complete success and the girls will use the money for a good cause.
One of the special features of the evening's entertainment were George and Martha Washington in complete colonial costumes. "George" rendered a solo, "If Washington should come to life," and Martha was accompanist at the piano. These characters were given by Bessie Thompson and Ruth Lemon.

Mr. Neff stated yesterday that the demonstration train, which was to have been here next week, has been temporarily delayed because of enactment of railroad legislation at Sacramento. The Southern Pacific company has been running the train free of charge, as well as the lecturers accompanying the exhibits. While the new law permits the running of the train free, no provision is made for carrying lecturers, and it is held that under the law they must pay fares. If this should be the construction placed upon the enactment by the railroad commission, the train may be abandoned. Should the lecturers be included in the class exempted from paying full railway fares, the train will be run again on a new schedule.
Mr. Neff says the matter has been passed up to the railway commission, and pending receipt of word from that body, the train has been withdrawn and all schedules cancelled.

Large Audience Entertained at Lecture and Stereopticon Views
A very well filled house greeted the Rev. Father Dubbel on Thursday evening of last week, when he delivered his lecture on the Oberammergau Passion Play in the opera house.
The colored stereopticon views were beautiful. Eighty-five different views were cast on the curtain in the course of the lecture. The lecture was divided into two parts. First a general description of Oberammergau and its people, the vow which calls for the play. The second part dwelt with the play proper. A happy feature of the lecture was the close adherence to the official text that the lecturer followed. This at times made one feel as though in spirit, at least, he had been transported to the Bavarian village. The description of Judas before the council of the Sanhedrim was strong. The lecturer had spirit in his delivery. So attentive was the audience that literally speaking you could hear a pin drop. The description of the journey to Calvary and of the death of Christ was most reverent.
H. A. Dickel sang the "Holy City" when the view of Christ's entry into Jerusalem was shown. At Lieb; Ed Olmstead, E. W. Warren, and H. Stern went to Los Angeles on Tuesday evening to attend the D.O.K. K. ceremonial.

DEATH OF S. S. FEDERMAN
Former Well-Known Resident Passes Away in Los Angeles
Samuel S. Federman died at his home in Los Angeles on Friday afternoon after an illness of four years due to paralysis. He was formerly a well-known business man of this city, coming here in 1878. In 1888 he built the two-story brick building at the northeast corner of Center and Los Angeles streets, and occupied the lower floor as a merchandising establishment. In 1894 he removed to Los Angeles, where he had since resided. Ten years ago he financed the construction of Beth Israel, the Jewish synagogue at Olive and Temple streets in Los Angeles. He contributed largely from his fortune for the erection of the edifice.
Mr. Federman leaves a wife and married daughter, residing in Los Angeles; a brother, Charles Federman of this city, and four brothers and

Anaheim, Cal., Feb. 21, 1911:
Editor Gazette.—It seems strange that a city situated so near the ocean as Anaheim would consider the proposition of putting their sewage on a farm. When there is a way to dispose of it in a sanitary and in the end more economical manner. The septic tank does not destroy disease microbes. As the sewer water runs over the land it becomes dry in places, and microbes in a dry state can be carried by the wind for many miles, and in this way spread infectious disease. Los Angeles will not admit to the city any product irrigated with water from septic tanks, or milk from cows fed anything irrigated with such water.

Ten years ago he financed the construction of Beth Israel, the Jewish synagogue at Olive and Temple streets in Los Angeles. He contributed largely from his fortune for the erection of the edifice.
Mr. Federman leaves a wife and married daughter, residing in Los Angeles; a brother, Charles Federman of this city, and four brothers and two sisters residing in the east.
Funeral services were held on Sunday, interment being made in the Jewish cemetery.
Deceased was a native of Germany and was aged 58 years. He leaves a large estate, having amassed a comfortable fortune during his lifetime. Since removing to Los Angeles he had retired from active business pursuits. His death is occasion for regret among a wide circle of acquaintances here and in Los Angeles.

YOUNG PEOPLE ELOPE
Parents Forgive, and All Is Lovely and Serene
Marguerite Rawlin, a 15-year-old grammar school girl of this city, eloped with Paul Golter of Fullerton, one day last week, and was married at Santa Ana by a justice of the peace.
When the couple applied for a marriage license at the county clerk's office in Santa Ana, the young bride looked out coyly from under a borrowed hat and gave her age as 18. The clerk took her word for it, the license was issued, and the ceremony quickly followed. The elopers returned to Anaheim and told an older sister of the bride of the hasty wedding and then left for a honeymoon to parts unknown. The elopement was well planned. The girl's family had no suspicion of a possible drawing in the lottery of love when she donned her best dress and left for school.
At 10 o'clock the young groom called at the school with a horse and buggy. His fiancee was waiting, but hatless. With a "rush" borrow from one of her schoolmates, the girl got into the buggy and the pair speeded to Santa Ana.
Miss Rawlin became acquainted with Golter only three months ago. Her parents, although greatly shocked by the unexpected wedding, state that they will make no effort to have the marriage annuled, but will seek to have the young couple make the best of the situation.
