ANAHEIM WINS AS USUAL West Jefferson Merchants Defeated by a Score of 16 to 5 The West Jefferson Merchants is the name of the baseball team which was led to the slaughter on the local diamond on Sunday afternoon. Up in Los Angeles these boys are considered pretty swift ball players, but it was speedily learned, after the opening of the game, that they were not in the same class with the Anaheim sluggers. Mensenkamp was in splendid form and pitched seven innings, striking out thirteen men and allowing but five hits. The first three innings the locals connected with seven hits and scored seven runs, while the visitors failed to score either a hit or a run. The heavy slugging of the boys broke Pitcher Sargent's heart and in the third inning, after Huntington had lined out a beautiful two-bagger, he threw down the ball and threw up his hands, refusing to continue the game. He was pursuaded to go behind the bat and O'Neil went into the box. For three innings Chicago held the enemy down to one hit and one run, but in the seventh he blew up and eight runs were corralled. Mensenkamp was also wild in the seventh, having crippled his hand, the visitors getting three hits and three runs. He retired at the end of the inning, Huntington being sent into the box and Ernest Bowen taking Stump's place in the field. Only one hit was made off Huntington's delivery and he struck out two men. The game was void of sensational plays and full of errors, the locals making five and the visitors nine. Joe Hoinskids created a mild sensation. ADDITIONAL LOGICAL NEWS Victor Schumacher was a member of the jury which tried Leodora Garcia in the superior court this week. Defendant was found guilty of assault with a deadly weapon upon a Mexican named Manso. On Sunday was held an interesting service at the M. E. Sunday school. Mrs., Adams' orchestra played at the opening service. At the close of the service Mrs. Yoeman read a very fine paper on the temperance question, and Arthur Ziegler sang a solo on "Touch Not the Cup." The S. Q. R. Store reports that their Birthday Sale was well patronized. Large crowds attended the birthday party on Saturday. The cake was cut into 480 pieces, and lasted until 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Lucky prize winners were Mrs. Frank Borth first prize, Miss Mary Wisser second, and Mrs. N. B. Tedford third. The local gas plant has been taken over by the Southern Counties gas company, which has also purchased the gas plants at Santa Ana, Orange and Fullerton. L. E. Miller is a director in the new company. The company has applied for a franchise from the supervisors to lay pipe along the county roads. Headquarters of the new company will be at Santa Ana. A. Lindsley Smith of Los Angeles has been in town this week, accompanied by Mrs. Smith. He is a former well-known newspaper man, having been engaged upon newspapers in Utah, Nevada, and this state. Mr. Smith spent some time in Anaheim 35 years ago, and is putting in odd moments looking up old landmarks, which are hard to find. He represents a northern railroad syndicate, Mensenkamp was also wild in the seventh, having crippled his hand, the visitors getting three hits and three runs. He retired at the end of the inning, Huntington being sent into the box and Ernest Bowen taking Stump's place in the field. Only one hit was made off Huntington's delivery and he struck out two men. The game was void of sensational plays and full of errors, the locals making five and the visitors nine. Joe Heinricks created a mild sensation by muffing a ball, the first time he was ever guilty of such a trick. The chief features of the game were the batting of Goddard and Huntington. Each secured three hits, Goddard making a three bagger and Huntington a two-bagger. Carpenter also received honorable mention by stealing three bases. In coming down from the city the Merchants missed the first train on Sunday morning and boarded the second one, consequently found themselves stranded at Fullerton. A train of autos engineered by Messrs. Lewis, Heying and Dickenson was sent after them. The score: ANAHEIM AB R BH PO A E F.

HIGHSCHOOL BALL GAME Anaheim Defeats Huntington Beach, 7 to 6 LEAGUE STANDING Headquarters of the new company will be at Santa Ana. A. Lindsley Smith of Los Angeles has been in town this week, accompanied by Mrs. Smith. He is a former well-known newspaper man, having been engaged upon newspapers in Utah, Nevada, and this state. Mr. Smith spent some time in Anaheim 35 years ago, and is putting in odd moments looking up old landmarks, which are hard to find. He represents a northern railroad syndicate, and contemplates disposing of a considerable block of stock in this section. Rebecca C. Joplin, wife of County Treasurer J. C. Joplin, died at Santa Ana on Monday afternoon, after an illness of many months. She was a member of one of the leading families of Virginia. She and her husband came to this county about thirty-five years ago, and were among the best known of the county’s pioneers. Mrs. Joplin leaves here beside a widower five sons, Andrew B., William Joseph, John B., and A. Joplin, and a brother and sister, Dr. J. P. and Miss Rosa L. Boyd. NOT A GOOD WITNESS He was a huge man of the navvy species, and as he stood in the witness box counsel eyed him dubiously. He knew he would be a hard nut to crack—a very hard nut, indeed. “What we want to get at,” he began, “is who was the aggressor?” “Eh?” said the witness, puzzled. “Let me illustrate my meaning,” said the counsel. “Supposing that I should meet you on the street and strike you on the face, I would be the aggressor.” “You’d be a fool,” said the witness, with growing emphasis. “No—no,” said counsel, with color heightening. “I was speaking only in abstract. Suppose we met, and without provocation, I struck you. I should be committing an act of aggression.” The navvy hunched his huge shoulders. “You’d be committing suicide, mister,” he remarked grimly. “You may sit down,” snapped the lawyer.

Anaheim won in a strong ninth inning rally by a score of 7 to 6. Their batting was improved, ten hits being recorded. Yorba in the box for Anaheim pitched good ball, striking out 17 and allowed 3 hits. In the fifth the ump was struck upon the head by a batted ball, and rendered unconscious. He soon recovered and continued umpiring. A feature of the game was base stealing by Brooks of the visitors. The line-up: The game played with Santa Ana a week ago was forfeited to Anaheim by playing of an ineligible on the visiting team. The next game will be played with Fullerton this afternoon on latter's grounds. Anaheim has the highest standing in the league at present. CALIFORNIA BORAX MINES California produces all the borax mined in the United States and is now supplying nearly all the domestic demand. The principal mine is in the Death Valley region, in Inyo Co. Another mine is in Los Angeles county. The mineral mined is colemanite, or borate of lime, most of which is shipped crude to Alameda, or Bayonne, N. J., for refining. About half the product is consumed in enameling kitchenware, but new uses for borax are found every year. A leaflet on the production of borax in 1909, by Charles G. Yale, has just been published by the United States geological survey as an advance chapter of its report "Mineral resources of the United States, calendar year 1909." UNCLE DICK EGAN'S TROUBLES "Uncle Dick" Egan, patriarch of San Juan Capistrano, on the directorate for thirty years of the Santa Fe railway, has troubles of his own these days. The bigots at Sacramento, whose legislative action cut off all passes, despolled the judge of his annual, along with other victims. Then he decided to buy a one-thousand-mile book—thirty dollars—intending to use it in his semi-occasional visits to Los Angeles, but he lost it after the first ride into the city. Next he bought a round-trip ticket. That was last week when the rains were frequent. At the California Club they gave him a paste board check for his umbrella and in going out Uncle Dick gave up his return coupon by mistake. After all these years of undisturbed possession, to be deprived of the courtesy of the road in this summary manner. My sympathies are all with the sage of Capistrano.—Graphic.

W.Co. met in regular session on the above date, with all members present except Sherwood. The minutes of the preceding regular meeting were read and approved. Application of Wm. Berkenstock for purchase of 40 barrels of cement was on motion granted. A communication was received from Fullerton city trustees, requesting the pipe line on Pomona avenue, at the intersection of Chapman avenue, be extended to the east line of this street, as the open ditch extending into the street interferes with travel. The superintendent was instructed to extend the pipe line to the full width of the street. E. W. Hemphill requested permission to connect his pipe line with the main ditch crossing the road in front of the Bradford residence, in order to turn water into the main ditch before going to the head to turn off the water. Granted. Attorney Melrose submitted a proposed form of agreement to be made by the Bastanchury Ranch Co. and the A.U.W.Co., regarding ditch to be made through the land of the Bastanchury Co. for the purpose of disposing of waste water, which causes damage to their property. The form of agreement was approved, and the secretary was instructed to obtain the signature of the Bastanchury Co. to the same. O. H.

C. E. Holcomb appeared before the board in regard to the request for the piping of the ditch on Sycamore St. extending from Los Angeles street to Lemon. Holcomb agreed to pay one quarter of the cost of the improvement. On motion of Hale seconded by McLauchlin, the secretary was instructed to advise the city trustees of the agreement of Holcomb and to state to them that, if the city also would agree to pay one-quarter of the cost, their request would be granted and the pipe line constructed accordingly. The secretary reported that the present funds of the company were insufficient to pay the bills that would be presented at the end of the present month; also that the accounts of a number of stockholders were still in arrears, notwithstanding repeated requests to them for settlement, and that if these accounts could be collected by the end of the month, an immediate assessment then would be avoided. The secretary was instructed to advise the delinquent stockholders of these conditions, and to press them for settlements, and to report the remaining delinquents at the next meeting of the board, when action would be taken to obtain settlements. Supt. Porter reported trouble in obtaining contracts from users of domestic water on the main canal, and he was authorized to procure the help of the attorney in any way he should find necessary. Applications on file for the transfer of stock were on motion granted. A communication was received from Wm. McLauchlin, tendering his resignation as a member of the board of directors, and recommending the appointment of John J. Dwyer in his place. A motion was carried that the resignation be accepted.
