HAS THE LARGEST CIRCULATION BUENA PARK Miss Margaret Martin, assisted by the Misses Gladys Conger and Harriet Gould, entertained their class-mates, the members of the senior class of the Girl's Collegiate school, with a box party at the Belasco Theater on Saturday afternoon. Later tea was served to the party at the Alexandria. One of the most delightful events of the past week was a garden party given for the younger set by Mrs. Jack Fuquay at her home on Saturday evening. The lawn was tastefully decorated with Japanese lanterns and games and music provided the amusement. The out-of-town guests present were the Misses Margaret Zimmerman, Jessie McMillan, Florence Thurber and Ruth Linsey; Mr. William McMillan and Mr. Raymond McMillan, all of Los Angeles, and Miss Belle Hale of Garden Grove. Delicious refreshments were served at tables placed underneath the trees to about seventy-five guests. A pretty June wedding will be that of Miss Lillian Robertson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Robertson, to Mr. Harley Jones. The date has been set for the eleventh of June. Miss Robertson has been the complimented guest at several affairs recently. The members of the Ladies Mutual EDITOR BAUMGARTNER HAS A CRAMP Talks About Jokers, Double Cross, Sewers and Things [Santa Ana Register] Time was when the Anaheim Gazette thought P. A. Stanton was a little tin god. At all events there was nothing too good to be said about Stanton by the Gazette. Which was all right, so far as we are now concerned, though at the time we entered a vigorous demurrer, whereat the Gazette grew exceeding wroth. Now hear the Gazette sing on the other side of the mouth. The town of Stanton has been incorporated from 12 square miles of farming country south and west of Anaheim in order to head off the location of a sewer farm in that vicinity by the city of Anaheim. Mr. Stanton was one of the prime movers in the campaign for the new town and the Gazette says: "The object of the new town is simply to prevent Anaheim from maintaining a sewer farm on the Gilbert ranch, upon which the city holds an option, and to which it has practically secured a right of way. This city declares it will go right ahead in its plans, and will occupy the ranch, even if it costs the biggest kind of a lawsuit. The joker in all these proceedings is that Stanton has offered the city 100 acres of sandy land in the wash near Brookshurst for sewer farm purposes at $300 per acre. It seems Stanton opposes a sewer farm in his town if land is purchased from Gilbert, but if land is to be purchased from him, it is a horse of a different color." We don't blame Stanton for making a "holler" if the sewer farm was going to be too close to his "summer home," nor for trying to sell the city some other land. Nor have we any fault to find with the Gazette for "handling Stanton one" if that gentleman is "double crossing" his neighbors. In fact we have no kick coming anywhere along this line. We're er and there was a nocent bystanders. Not carried any fury Smith was arrested Failing to show up for trial he was locked and brought back.

Robertson, to Mr. Harley Jones. The date has been set for the eleventh of June. Miss Robertson has been the complimented guest at several affairs recently. The members of the Ladies Mutual Aid society will be entertained at the home of Mrs. H. H. Heggarty on Thursday afternoon. George E. Wilcox, who has been ill for the past week, is reported to have entirely recovered his strength. J. H. Stafford has purchased the Deere ranch and it is his intention to engage in stock-raising. The place is already well equipped for such a business. An astounding case of vandalism has been reported by the trustees of the Buena Park school. The building was entered by means of a forced door and a great deal of damage sustained through the breaking of windows, doors, chairs and the electric light fixtures. Further investigation proved that both the La Mirada and the Orangethorpe schools were entered and treated in a like manner. It is the intention of the authorities to ascertain who the miscreants may be and punish them accordingly. Harold S. Brush, who has made his home with C. H. Newcombe and family for the past year, left on Saturday for Los Angeles where he will be identified in the offices of the George E. Hart company as assistant to his father, W. S. Brush, who is a member of the firm. SANTA ANA After pleading guilty and receiving sentence, William D. Rose, churchworker and storekeeper at Harlin station, thanked Justice Cox for not sending him to jail. "For myself," said he, "I would prefer to be punished in jail, but for the sake of my family I prefer freedom." Rose paid a fine of $250 and a commitment to jail for 120 days was suspended. He pleaded guilty to stealing a set of harness from R. C. Burkett, a friend. Assessor James Sleeper and his field deputy, R. S. Gregory, have completed the assessment of the Fullerton oil fields, and as a result the total assessment of that district will be much heavier than it was last year. Sleeper visited every piece of property in the field. R. C. Croft, the Los Angeles policeman whose wife is in the County Jail here on a charge of living with William Breeding in violation of a State law, has filed an answer and cross-complaint to his wife's suit for $50 a month separate maintenance. Croft asks for a decree of divorce on the farm purposes at $300 per acre.

Nor have we any fault to find with the Gazette for "handing Stanton one" if that gentleman is "double crossing" his neighbors. In fact we have no kick coming anywhere along this line. We're merely observing. FULLERTON The City Trustees are considering plans for better lighting of the city, and will later install a type of street arc which has been found satisfactory at Whittier. The present lighting is unsatisfactory. The Edison company is also installing an improved type of incandescent lights in the residence section of the city. There is an undercurrent of talk that the city should acquire the water works and improve it and operate a combined water system and light plant. This is the result of considerable dissatisfaction over the service. The contract of the water company with the city will expire before long and the agitation is likely to grow. Should the bonds for street improvement carry the company will probably install a new main in the business section, as the present pipes are wooden and leak. The council will require the company to pay the cost and damage in case the company tears up the new pavement and may take acton to force the company to install iron pipes. The senior class of the high school will present "As You Like It" on the evening of June 9. Arrangements are being made for an outdoor theater. A large walnut tree rises in the center of the stage and will be part of the scenery. Prof. A. L. Vincent who resigned as principal of the grammar school to go to Los Angeles has accepted the city superintendency of the Ventura schools for the coming year. Miss Cora Talbert, sixth-grade teacher here, has been elected principal of the Olinda schools. The Placentia Round Table is raising a fund with which to build a fine clubhouse at Placentia; $200 was realized as the result of a vaudeville show. The club will give the performance at the oil wells at Olinda on June 7. As the result of a threatened shooting affray L. E. Smith, an insurance man, was assessed $25 fine by Justice Kenney on Thursday, and admonished to travel the path of peace. According to the various stories told, Smith while intoxicated, entered the Cottage Hotel run by Don Poore and indulged in abusive language. Poore finally ordered Smith out of the house. Later the parties to the altercation met in Leander's store on Spadra street and the quarrel was renewed. Poore, it is said by witnesses, dared farm purposes at $300 per acre. It seems Stanton opposes a sewer farm in his town if land is purchased from Gilbert, but if land is to be purchased from him, it is a horse of a different color."

Croft asks for a decree of divorce on the ground that his wife has been unfaithful to him. Mrs. Isabel Reyes of No. 1020 Lincoln street, was arrested Saturday on a charge of keeping a disorderly house. She is to be tried Friday. The complaint was made by Mrs. Nick Gonzales who presented to Dist.-Atty. West a petition with a dozen signers. The petition read: "We, neighbors and property owners living in the vicinity of Mrs. Reyes, don't want her for a neighbor no more. Her tongue is as bad as her reputation." MISS HILL GUEST OF HONOR Popular Teacher Entertained on Eve of Her Departure The Philathea class of the Presbyterian Sunday School on Thursday evening gave a party at the home of Miss Maud Comstock in honor of Miss S. E. Hill, who left on Monday for Los Angeles and will later go to Berkeley for the summer. Much regret is felt at losing Miss Hill from the class, for not only has she been one of the most faithful members, but she has been the efficient superintendent of the Junior Christian Endeavor Society, which is under the care of the Philathea class. A social and business meeting of the Philathea class was held at the home of the Misses Ann and Kathryn Hand. Many matters of business were discussed, and merry conversation made the evening pass "ere they were aware." Dainty refreshments were served. The members of the class will rejoice when the opportunity comes to accept the cordial invitation to hold another meeting at the same place.

Helmsen and there was a scattering of innocent bystanders. Hostilities were not carried any further, however. Smith was arrested and gave bail. Failing to show up at the time set for trial he was located in Anaheim and brought back by his bondsman. About three hundred people attended the piano recital at the Christian church given by Miss Harriet Dowling, assisted by Miss Alice Coleman of Pasadena. Miss Dowling showed fine technique and her interpretations of many classic selections were roundly applauded. POSTAL SAVINGS BANK Anaheim Designated as Depositary by Federal Government Postmaster Duckworth yesterday received a dispatch from Washington stating that Anaheim has been designated as a postal savings depositary, to open July 3d. HARNESS THIEF W. de R. Rose, church-worker and proprietor of the grocery store at Harlin Station, is in the county jail, a confessed harness thief. A complaint charging petty larceny was sworn to by A. C. Twist. Rose's arrest came as a surprise, and the most surprised man of all was R. C. Burkett, from whose barn the harness was stolen. Burkett is a salesman for the William F. Lutz company of which Twist is manager. Discovering that the harness was missing, Burkett notified Constable Jackson and Deputy Sheriff Jernigan. They followed the tracks of a buggy to Rose's yard, and found the harness, part of it in a wagon and part on the hay in the barn. Burkett could hardly believe the evidence, for he knew Rose well. At first Rose denied his guilt, but when the officers took him to Burkett's barn and told him to put his foot on a shoe track there, he admitted that he stole the harness. He also admitted that he stole harness from D. O. Minter a month ago. Minter was attending a revival, and his horse was stripped of its harness.

The average price per ton in 1909 was $3.98. In addition to these figures, lime to the value of $78,405 was produced in 1909 from burning oyster shells. These and other statistics of lime production and notes on the manufacture of hydrated lime, by Ernest F. Burchard, of the United States Geological Survey, are given in a separate chapter of "Mineral Resources" for 1909, the compilation being the result of cooperation between the Geological Survey and the Bureau of the Census. According to Mr. Burchard, recent tests have indicated that magnesian limes are generally best suited to structural work and high-calcium lime to chemical purposes, but for certain uses the reverse of this rule is true, and for many applications in each branch of industry either type of lime is equally well suited. The chemical uses of lime are much more varied than the uses of lime in building. Lime is used for soil renovation or sweetening, for insecticides and fungicides, for egg preservation, for water and sewer purification, as a disinfectant and deodorizer, for bleaching., in the manufacturing of numerous chemicals, in gas manufacture, in the milling industry, in paint and varnish NEARING COMPLETION Holly Sugar Factory at Huntington Beach Almost Ready for Business Construction work at the Holly sugar factory at Huntington Beach is approaching an end. There will be no brick masons at work, except on the office building after this week. Machinery is all in place and an air of completeness is beginning to pervade the great plant. While a large number of men are still employed in putting the finishing touches upon various parts of the buildings and machinery, it is evident that another month will see the factory ready to receive beets from the ranchers under contract to furnish them. All parts of the plant are absolutely fireproof, only metal, stone and cement having been used in construction, and its entire equipment is the most modern known in sugar-factory building. The commodious clubhouse where the heads of departments will reside, is going up fast and will be a comfortable and thoroughly modern home, while the pretty bungalow being erected as the residence of the master mechanic will be under roof in about two weeks. The grounds are being beautified with flower plots and woodbine has been planted so that its growth will completely cover the wire fencing which entirely encloses the factory site. FARMERS ARE OPTOMISTIC Crop Conditions Reported Good in All Sections May was, like April, a cold month. The temperature was several degrees below normal. There was one brief spell of warm weather near the end of the second decade, but no extremely high temperature was recorded. In the main the month has been one of cold, somewhat cloudy weather, with the usual amount of fog along the coast. In the interior the nights and mornings have been cool and the afternoons not unpleasantly warm. From an agricultural point of view conditions are excellent and with the exception of the spring frosts, which damaged fruits somewhat in the northern part of the State, near the middle of April, the season has been an ideal one, although late. Burkett could hardly believe the evidence, for he knew Rose well. At first Rose denied his guilt, but when the officers took him to Burkett's barn and told him to put his foot on a shoe track there, he admitted that he stole the harness. He also admitted that he stole harness from D. O. Minter a month ago. Minter was attending a revival, and his horse was stripped of its harness. Minter's harness was found at the Harlin store.

LIME INDUSTRY GROWING Its Increasing Use and Value to Agriculture The manufacture of lime in the United States is a large, important, and rapidly growing industry. Few mineral products have so wide a variety of uses as lime. A little more than half the lime manufactured in the United States is used as a structural material, and the remainder, amounting to more than 1,250,000 tons, valued at about $5,250,000, is used for chemical purposes. The principal uses which lime has in building operations are in lime mortars and plasters, in gaging Portland cement mortars, concrete, and gypsum plasters, and as a whitewash. Both quick and hydrated lime are used in building operations. Lime is burned in nearly all the States and Territories, Pennsylvania leading in 1909 with a value of more than $2500,000. The total production for 1909 was 3,472,852 short tons, valuing approximately $18 million. In the vicinity of Killis, where the country is open and extremely exposed, in the region of Idlib, which is likewise situated upon the plain according to reports received from those localities the greatest havoc was produced, the orchards being practically destroyed. In the environs of Antioch, which is a mountainous region, those orchards protected by the hills sustained less damage and it is estimated that probably not more than 50 per cent of the trees perished. For many hundreds of these villagers such a loss is little less than a calamity, as many of them constantly depend upon olive products for their living." Although the greatly reduced crop of olives in Syria may advance the price of olives and olive oil in California, one can not but feel sorry for the Syrians whose principal income has been seriously reduced or entirely cut off by the damage of their olive crop.
