J. H. ADAMS & CO. SECURE SEWER BONDS AGREE TO ACCEPT THEM IN THREE INSTALLMENTS May 15, July 1 and October 1 Are the Dates of Issue—Associated Oil Co. Given Contract for 5000 Barrels of Crude Oil by City Trustees—Eight Building Permits Granted—Many Matters Discussed at Regular Meeting Thursday Evening The bid of J. H. Adams & Co. of Los Angeles for the $90,000 Anaheim sewer bonds, was accepted by the Board of Trustees on Thursday evening after hearing the report of the committee appointed at the last meeting to confer with the bidders relative to the dates of issue. Chairman Gates reported that Adams & Co. had agreed to the committee's proposition, and that $30,000 of the issue would be taken on May 15th, $30,000 on July 1st, and the last one-third on October 1st. This will save the city several hundred dollars, as interest on the bonds will begin only when the money is needed in the construction work. Only one bid for printing the bonds was submitted—that of W. P. Jeffreys & Co., of Los Angeles. Their bid was $400, and as it was not considered excessive, moreover as there was not sufficient time before the disposal of the first issue of the bonds to solicit further bids, it was accepted. In response to the advertisement for 5000 barrels of crude oil three bids were received, and representations of the bidders were present. The move the live stock, barns and sheds from it and convert it into a respectable back yard. This lot will be crossed diagonally by the sewer and the board ordered that Mr. Kistler remove all his belongings from it. It will then be rented to the highest bidder. The Anaheim road district which recently lost a $40 warrant issued by the city petitioned for a duplicate, which was so ordered. As the city's contract for printing expires on the first of May City Clerk Merritt was ordered to advertise for bids for printing and publishing during the coming year. On motion of Gates the city clerk was granted an additional salary of $25 per month during May, June, July and August, as much extra help will be needed in arranging taxrolls. The salary of Joe Yeope, one of the power house employees, increased from $55 to $65 per month. City Attorney Ames requested that several type written copies of all city ordinances should be made so that he, Recorder Howard and others needing them in official work might arrange them in indexed books for easy reference. The board agreed and turned the matter over to Mr. Ames.

Their bid was $400, and as it was not considered excessive, moreover as there was not sufficient time before the disposal of the first issue of the bonds to solicit further bids, it was accepted. In response to the advertisement for 5000 barrels of crude oil three bids were received, and representatives of the bidders were present. The bids were: Associated Oil Co., 75c. per barrel f.o.b. Norwalk, or 84c. delivered at Anaheim. Whittier Crude Oil Co., 85c., f.o.b. Whittler. Murphy Oil Co., 79c., f.o.b. Los Nietos. On Mr. Lewis' assurance that the grade guaranteed by the Associated company was satisfactory that bid was accepted. The superintendent of streets reported that many complaints were being filed by the residents of South Olive street because the Southern Pacific railroad had failed to comply with a previous order to grade the street crossing to the level of the track. The clerk was instructed to notify the company that the work must be done at once. Mr. Kellenberger also stated that a new broom was needed for the street sweeper, or would be needed by the time it could be received. On motion it was decided to purchase two new brooms and to have the old one rejuvenated or rebristled. There appears to be a revival of the building industry, judging from the permits asked for and granted. They were: To Dr. Paschal, frame rooming-house on Emily street. Cost $3000. To J. D.

A petition by John Resh and others asking that the water main be extended from its present terminus on Olive street to South street, thence along South street to their homes, was turned over to Engineer Lewis for investigation. The extension would be 2500 feet. The Turnverein society is making preparations for a picnic on the Union Brewing company's grounds on Sunday, April 23, and City Marshal Kellenberger stated that he had been solicited by promoters of the affair for permission to diepense beer in case any Turner should become thirsty during the day. As he had no authority to abrogate a city ordinance he passed it up to the higher powers and asked for instructions. On the advice of City Attorney Ames the council decided to take no action on the matter, as the board has no authority to suspend the Sunday closing ordinance. Wm. Falkenstein petitioned the board for a reduction in his water rate. He has annexed one of the rooms of the new Mitchell block on Los Angeles street, connected it with his store, and thinks a separate water charge for that room unjust. The board turned the petition down. Dr. Paschall was also before the board with a petition. He wants to lease the lot in the rear of his residence belonging to the city now in possession of Stephen Kistler, to re- 38. Krick and Moore were partners in the real estate business in this city. Moore moved to Santa Ana and for a number of months was the Salt Lake railroad agent. When Krick was running for the republican nomination for county clerk Moore was one of his verification deputies. Attorneys Tipton & Callor this week filed a complaint for Krick. The complaint alleges that Moore owes Krick $830. Judgment of $100 is asked for a note to the German American bank of this city, signed by Krick and Moore on December, 1908. Krick has paid the note and interest of $2.38. Moore left Santa Ana to take a church in another state. THIS GROWER LOST OUT Walnut Association Slipped One Over Him—Will Appeal Justice Cox of the Santa Ana town ship court decided the walnut association case in favor of the association and judgment for $200 against Robert J. Paine was given. The Santa Ana valley walnut growers association sued Paine for fines, $100 for 1909 and $100 for 1910, because Paine did not deliver his walnuts to the association of which he was a member. The fines were imposed under a by-law of the association. Paine's contention was that in 1909 he offered his walnuts to the association, but the association officers imposed a condition to which he declared he would not agree. That condition was that he wait while the association tested walnuts to see where the walnuts should be placed after delivery. Montgomery & Tarver appeared at the trial for the association, and Williams & Rutan for the defendant. Paine will appeal the case to the superior court. Frederick G.

ABOUT GROUND WATERS Subject of Interest to Farmers Treated of in Government Report Perhaps no subject is of more interest to more people the country over than that of underground water resources. The value of these resources is quite incalculable, and the problem of developing these resources to the utmost demands exhaustive geologic study and engineering experimentation. In 1903 the United States Geological Survey entered on the publication of a series of groups of short articles giving descriptions of investigations of special underground water problems. The first of these reports Water-Supply Paper 102, is now out of stock at the survey; the second and third of these series, Water-Supply Papers 110 and 145, "Contributions to the Hydrology of the Eastern United States," by M. L. Fuller, can be had on application to the Director of the Survey; the fourth report, Water-Supply Paper 160, is out of stock; the fifth, Water-Supply Paper 258, which is just being issued, consists of 11 short, illustrated papers, as follows: Drainage by Wells, by M. L. Fuller; Freezing of Wells and Related Phenomena, by M. L. Fuller; Occurrence and Composition of Well Waters in the state of Maine, by F. G. Clapp; Occurrence and Composition of Well Water in Granites of New England, by F. G. Clapp; Pollution of Underground Waters in Limestone, by G. C. Matson; Protection of Shallow Wells in Sandy Deposits, by M. L. Fuller; Composition of the Mineral Springs in Maine, by F. G. Clapp; Saline Artesian Waters of the Atlantic Coastal Plain, by Samuel Sanford; Magnetic Wells, by M. L. Fuller; and there is practically no opportunity for natural purification. The danger is increased by the fact that persons using underground water are apt to rely on its general appearance and temperature as indications of purity. It is generally considered that water which is clear and cold is pure, but no such conclusion is warranted, for some of the most dangerously polluted waters are free from sediment and deliciously cold. Water-Supply Paper 258 can be had, free, on application to the Director of the United States Geological Survey, Washington, D. C. Water Supply Papers 110 and 145 can also be had upon application. SUIT INVOLVES CYPRESS RANCH Shooting of Gary by Reinert at Santa Ana is Recalled Legal tangles following the operations of C. N. Gary and B. H. Loveless of Los Angeles in this county two years ago have not all been adjusted as is shown by a suit begun in the superior court this week. Suit was brought by H. C. McCulley against Charles O. Nourse for possession of a $5000 ranch near Cypress. Gary, a relative of Judge Gary of Chicago and of the steel trust Gary, was accused of several land frauds in this county. Two years ago, Edward Reinert, a Glendale German, became convinced that Gary and Loveless had "jobbed" him out of $2500. Reinert, insane with anger, fired two bullets at Gary, and for weeks there seemed to be little chance for Gary's life. Reinert was acquitted of attempt at murder, and he sued for and got his ranch. At the same time McCulley sued to rescind his deed to Loveless, alleging that Gary and Loveless had defrauded him. McCulley won his suit but... rence and Composition of Well Waters in the state of Maine, by F. G. Clapp; Occurrence and Composition of Well Water in Granites of New England, by F. G. Clapp; Pollution of Underground Waters in Limestone, by G. C. Matson; Protection of Shallow Wells in Sandy Deposits, by M. L. Fuller; Composition of the Mineral Springs in Maine, by F. G. Clapp; Saline Artesian Waters of the Atlantic Coastal Plain, by Samuel Sanford; Magnetic Wells, by M. L. Fuller; Underground Waters near Manassas, Va., by F. G. Clapp; and The Utilization of the Underflow near St. Francis, Kan., by H. C. Wolff. "Drainage by Wells," by M. L. Fuller, should be of great practical value in many areas where difficulty is experienced in removing surplus surface water, including bogs, marshes, and low places where surface drainage through gravity is not readily practicable. On the theory that you can empty a bucketful or barrelful of water into a well without permanently raising its level, so, the report shows, you can drain an acre, or several acres, or possibly a swamp of 50 or 75 acres into a well, the water running off through underground channels. Under the title "The Freezing of Wells," Mr. Fuller discusses various remedies and methods of prevention. He shows that efforts to prevent well freezing are frequently without results owing to simple lack of knowledge as to just how the freezing is caused. This paper also discusses the phenomena of blowing, breathing, and sucking wells, which may have a relation to their freezing. In discussing the protection of shallow wells in sandy deposits, Mr. Fuller emphasizes the dangers of pollution of the water supply of such wells and the need for adequately protecting them, and points out the way to do it. In another paper he discusses the phenomenon of magnetic wells and well waters, taking issue with some of the rather remarkable statements that have been made as to the magnetic qualities of certain spring and well waters. Frederick G. Clapp contributes four articles to the volume. The discussion of wells dug and driven in the slates and granites of New England and the conclusions reached are interesting and may be applied, perhaps with some modifications, to other slate and granite areas. The water in granite areas is found only in the joints of the granite rock and unless properly neared the county. Two years ago, Edward Reinert, a Glendale German, became convinced that Gary and Loveless had "jobbed" him out of $2500. Reinert, insane with anger, fired two bullets at Gary, and for weeks there seemed to be little chance for Gary's life. Reinert was acquitted of attempt at murder, and he sued for and got his ranch. At the same time McCulley sued to rescind his deed to Loveless, alleging that Gary and Loveless had defrauded him. McCulley won his suit, but before he brought it Loveless had secured a $500 loan on the ranch from Nourse, and had given a deed of trust to 'the Title Guarantee & Trust company of Los Angeles. The trust company on April 9 sold the property under the trust deed, and Nourse later bought it. McCulley's suit is to dispossess Nourse. McCulley asserts that he offered to pay Nourse's alleged claim against the $5000 ranch but Nourse would not take his offer — $616, ASKS SAN DIEGO TO PAY Demand Made for Costs in Schonek Arson Case County Auditor Lester on Thursday filed a demand against the county of San Diego for the sum of $1649.91. This amount represents the cost to Orange county, of the re-trial of Adolph Louis Schonek of San Diego county, charged with arson. The first trial of Schonek in San Diego resulted in a hung jury. A retrial was started but public sentiment being in favor of Schonek the case was ordered to Orange county. The second trial in Orange county resulted in a hung jury, but Judge West of the superior court before whom he was tried, said, when dismissing the jury, that he believed the defendant guilty, but that he dispaired of securing a conviction, therefore he would discharge Schonek. The itemized cost of the trial is as follows: Expense of witnesses $416.60, serving subpoenas $14, meals for prisoner $42, jury $886.50, court reporter $244.95, meals for jury $339.26, rent of beds for the jury $6. Total $1649.91. TWO JAPS ARRESTED Immigration Officer Gets Them Aboard Train It is back to Japan for two Japs arrested at Santa Ana a few days ago by Immigration Inspector Harry Blee. They were taken into custody on the Santa Fe train from San Diego at 11- Frederick G. Clapp contributes four articles to the volume. The discussion of wells dug and driven in the slates and granites of New England and the conclusions reached are interesting and may be applied, perhaps with some modifications, to other slate and granite areas. The water in granite areas is found only in the joints of the granite rock and unless it is struck comparatively near the surface it is not likely to be found at all. It is a mistaken idea; as some owners have found to their cost, to defy natural laws and keep on drilling for water in granite after a depth of 100 or possibly 200 feet has been reached. It is wiser to start a new well a few feet distant from the dry hole. In his paper on the underground water near Manassas, Va., Mr. Clapp describes a large municipal well which has a capacity for supplying several times the present population of the town. This and other wells of the area are sunk in sandstone, which is an excellent water-bearing formation. Mr. Matson's paper on the pollution of underground waters in limestone should be of value to many communities. The water which supplies wells in limestone regions usually makes its way along enlarged joints in the rock, which may in some places be extensive caverns. The enlargement is due to the solution of the limestone by water containing carbonic acid. In many of these underground channels, where the surface covering is a thin mantle of more or less porous material, the dangers of pollution, which may result in typhoid and other diseases, are very great, TWO JAPS ARRESTED Immigration Officer Gets Them Aboard Train It is back to Japan for two Japs arrested at Santa Ana a few days ago by Immigration Inspector Harry Blee. They were taken into custody on the Santa Fe train from San Diego at 11:55. In company with two others they took the train at San Diego, and when the immigration inspector boarded the train he had but little trouble in spotting the two men who were wanted for crossing the line near San Diego. The men taken into custody gave the names of N. Nomoto and Khutaro Kowagoye. The former had on a bran new suit and hat. He had torn out the hat band to conceal the name of the firm from which he bought it. He had a penny and a quarter of Mexican money. He could not speak a word of English. The other man could speak a little English, and told the inspector that his passport was in Los Angeles, but later admitted he came across the line at San Diego. The other two men proved to the satisfaction of Blee that they had a right to be here, one having his passport and the other giving evidence of having been here a long time. NO SMALL FISH FOR HIM The campfire was burning and all gathered around to pass the evening telling "fish" stories. "On the trip that I'm telling you about," began one man, "we caught—Whale, I suppose," interrupted a party. "Oh, no," answered the man quietly. "We were baiting with whales." San Diego can care for 30,000 visitors. The hotels and apartment houses, the tent city and other places where she can entertain visitors make of San Diego an ideal convention and carnival city. She is making ready to entertain the largest crowd of visitors at the ground breaking celebration that ever gathered in her limits for any occasion. Among the thousands present will be delegates to the National Educational Association, which closes its convention in San Francisco July 14th. One thousand for a rose. That is the proposition of the Panama-California exposition directors, who want a new species of this popular flower, to be known as the "San Diego," and which will be used in profusion on the grounds of the exposition, in 1915. The offer will be extended to every florist in the United States through the San Diego Floral Association, which will have charge of and be the final judge of the contest. There are but three general restrictions. The first is that the rose must be hardy, so that it can be easily grown outdoors. The second is that the competitors must be residents of the United States, and the third is that they must make known their intention to compete to the San Diego Floral Association.
