STEWARD CONFERS WITH GEN. ROYER MAKES ARRANGEMENT FOR TEMPORARY OUTFALL ON LATTER'S BIG RANCH Work Upon Sewer System to be Taken Up in Near Future—City gets Deed to Gilbert Ranch, on Which Three-Years' Lease Exists, Holds Sub-Lease on Ten Acres for Septic Tanks—Legal Fight Approaches City Engineer Steward was in Los Angeles yesterday consulting with Gen. J. O. Royer relative to occupying a portion of his west side ranch as a temporary outfall for the projected city system. Gen. Royer looks favorably upon the matter, and will within a few days enter into an agreement with the city relative there to. A smaller septic tank than those designed for the Gilbert ranch will be constructed, the same to be removed after five years, by which time the city expects to occupy its own property in the city of Stanton. Gen. Royer is familiar with the manner of handling sewage in Europe, where flow is used exclusively for purposesply looking about for an easy place to fall. When Gilbert was confronted with the gold coin, he executed a deed. This is all we desired of him. We are going to have a sewer system, and work on it will begin in the near future." CHANGED THE LINES Town of Stanton Taken from Third and Placed in Second Supervisor District The supervisors on Friday transferred the town of Stanton from the Third to the Second supervisor district. The report current last week that Buena Park would also be transferred to Talbert's district proved inaccurate, for while Linebarger would probably be satisfied with the Park out of his district, the board, evidently realizing Linebarger would be given a run for his money next year, refused to make the transfer, leaving the Park in the Third district to roll up a majority against the member now representing that district. Linebarger was quite willing to let Stanton go, for his action in the recent incorporation fight was displeasing to west siders; while at the same time it was not popular in Anaheim. In fact Linebarger proved himself to be a lightweight throughout that con- ected city system. Gen. Royer looks favorably upon the matter, and will within a few days enter into an agreement with the city relative there to. A smaller septic tank than those designed for the Gilbert ranch will be constructed, the same to be removed after five years, by which time the city expects to occupy its own property in the city of Stanton. Gen. Royer is familiar with the manner of handling sewage in Europe, where flow is used exclusively for purposes of fertilizing soil. Having been himself a farmer upon a large scale in France, he is conversant with problems of fertilization, and his only stipulation is that the septic tank be constructed on approved sanitary lines. It is regarded as certain that no odors will attach to the same, and the temporary device will be used as an object lesson to west-side incorporators. As soon as Mayor Rust and Councilman Stark return from their vacation trips, construction of the sewer system will probably be taken up. A legal contest with Stanton will also occur, when the city will seek to bring matters at issue into court. Just what form the contest will take is as yet uncertain, but probably work will be attempted at laying a pipe line at or near the Gilbert ranch. City officials of Stanton will cause arrest of such party or parties, and a trial will be held in the Stanton recorder's court. That conviction will be had is looked for. Immediately, an appeal will be taken to the superior court. Probably the case will go to the supreme court before matters are finally adjudicated. The city now has possession of the Gilbert ranch, upon which a tenant holds a three-years' lease, at $65 per month. This lease extends two years. The city, however, holds a sublease on the northeast ten acres, which was procured by J. P. Mayhew acting for the city, when securing an option upon the ranch in January. How the Stanton people regard the transfer of Gilbert's ranch to this city is illustrated in the following letter from that place: "Another chapter was added to the Anaheim sewer farm matter, when City Attorney Hanlon of Stanton, advised J. M. Gilbert upon whose land Anaheim has held an option, 'o sell his land to that municipality, if he so desired. Attorney Hanlon stated in his letter to Mr. Gilbert, that the city of Stanton, by the passage of ordinances prohibiting the establishment of sewer arms, or the use of sewage or sewer water for any purposes, withently realizing Linebarger would be given a run for his money next year, refused to make the transfer, leaving the Park in the Third district to roll up a majority against the member now representing that district. Linebarger was quite willing to let Stanton go, for his action in the recent incorporation fight was displeasing to west siders; while at the same time it was not popular in Anaheim. In fact Linebarger proved himself to be a lightweight throughout that contest. The population of Stanton is 785, and the salaries of the justice of the peace and constable were accordingly fixed at $10 a month each. J. C. Alcorn was appointed justice of the peace and E. R. M. Pierce was appointed constable. Stanton before incorporation had territory in four road districts. It became entitled to its share of each road fund, and accordingly the supervisors ordered that sums be paid the new city as follows: From Anaheim road fund $99.26, Buena Park $78.45, Garden Grove $61.39, Westminster $116.36. The bid of the Southern California Edison Co., to furnish the Garden Grove lighting district with twelve incandescent lights at $1.25 a month per light was accepted. Mrs. Barbara Kissling was placed on the indigent list at $10 a month. The board passed a resolution offering $5 for the arrest of each and every speed monster traveling county roads in an auto or other flying-machine. The Zimmerman children of Orange and Mrs. Francisco Dilges were stricken from the indigent roll. It was reported that Mrs. Dilges owns some property. Supervisors Leck and Linebarger were appointed a committee to purchase ground for the burial of the county poor. The present county plot at the Santa Ana cemetery is about filled up. A map of the Babinger subdivision, near the Anaheim Sugar Co. factory, was accepted. A map of the Garfield street addition at Huntington Beach was accepted. Permits were granted for pipelines crossing the county road, to H. B. Silkwood in Garden Grove district and to J. H. Evans in Olive district. July 18 was set as the time for opening bids for the $3000 bonds of the Commonwealth school district. Supervisor Struck was granted permission to spend in excess of $300 in the repair of the West Chapman factory, was read before of Trade Monday evening. Taryl Ahborn.

M. Gilbert upon whose land Anaheim has held an option, to sell his land to that municipality, if he so desired. Attorney Hanlon stated in his letter to Mr. Gilbert, that the city of Stanton, by the passage of ordinances prohibiting the establishment of sewer arms, or the use of sewage or sewer water for any purposes, within the limits of the city, had fully protected itself, and the purchase of land by Anaheim within the city limits of Stanton could do no harm to the latter city. "The Stanton people are quietly laughing in their sleeves at the plight of the city officials of Anaheim and it is suspected that the citizens of Anaheim will sit up with a start when they learn that they have a sewer farm on their hands which cannot be used for the purpose for which it was purchased. "Mr. Gilbert was prepared to take the manner of obtaining the option of his property into the courts, and Anaheim expected him to do it, but when they deposited the purchase price of the property in escrow the Stanton officials quickly advised Gilbert to 'grab' it." "Gilbert sure did grab it," said an official at the city hall yesterday. "That part of the story about Stanton slipping one over us is bosh. We took an option on the property, have a deed to it, and are going to occupy it as a sewer farm, ordinances or no ordinances. We have the opinion of Judge Pope that we can do so, and we are going to take a whirl with our friends at Stanton to ascertain just how binding their ordinances are. Personally I don't think they are worth a rap." "The author of this letter is sim- Permits were granted for pipelines crossing the county road, to H. B. Silkwood in Garden Grove district and to J. H.

The county clerk was instructed to buy a filing case to cost $485. The sheriff was instructed to buy fifty pairs of pants for prisoners. LOARA PARENT-TEACHERS The parent-teachers of the Loara school will hold their next meeting on the evening of July 14 at 7:30 o'clock. All members are requested to take part in the meeting either by reading some article or essay, or speaking—telling what is the object of the association, some of the many things it has accomplished, and some of the things it hopes to do in the future. All members are urged to come and bring the fathers as well as the mothers. GROUND BRÖKEN Building Operations on High School Begin Immediately Ground was broken this week for new high school buildings to be erected at the corner of Center and Citron streets. Material is on the ground and building operations will begin immediately. High school trustees hope to occupy at least a portion of the buildings at beginning of the school term in the fall. H. G.

The pr WILL BANQUET THE FACTORY OFFICIALS BOARD OF TRADE PREPARING FOR AN ELABORATE SPREAD Completion of Anaheim’s Great Industry to Be Fittingly Celebrated By Our Commercial Body—Date Not Yet Decided Upon—Board Invited to Visit the Factory and See How Sugar is Made—Advertising Committee Preparing Descriptive Book—Other Notes of Meeting A communication from H. S. Hadsell, manager of the Anaheim sugar factory, was read before the Board of Trade Monday evening by Secretary Ahlborn. Mr. Hadsell stated that inasmuch as the board of trade had been largely instrumental in locating the factory here, had materially assisted in its construction and was vitally interested in it from an industrial standpoint, he extended an invitation to the board to visit the plant in a body and make a thorough examination of its inward workings. He fixed no date for the visit but suggested that a day during the first places were considering the proposition but none had yet made a decision. CAL LESTER TAKES BRIDE County Auditor Marries Charming Girl at Glendale County Auditor Lester was married at Glendale on Saturday to Miss Isabel Lovejoy Churchill, at the residence of her sister, Mrs. A. Casebeer. Rev. Charles H. Seccombe, pastor of the First Congregational church of Santa Ana, was the officiating clergyman, and the ring service was used. The occasion was none—the less beautiful because of the simplicity of the service and the informality that marked the wedding festival. Mrs. Harry Carr of Pasadena sang the wedding song. The bride was unattended. She wore a lovely tailored gown of dahlia satin with a big picture hat, and carried a shower bouquet of lilies of the valley and orchids. She never looked more radiantly beautiful. A profusion of Shasta daisies and plumosus ferns enhanced the beauty of the room, and the stately beauty of the Yucca outlined a chancel at the end of the living-room where the vows were solemnized. A wedding breakfast was served at high noon, the bridal pair leaving POSTOFFICE BOXES AT CONVENIENT POINTS RECEPTACLES FOR COLLECTION OF MAIL MEET BUSINESS NEEDS Steam Up at Sugar Factory for First Season's Run, Which Begins On 20th—Works in Shape for Successful Campaign—Local Pythians Win Three Prizes—Surprise Tendered Misses Asher—Joint Installation—Asks for a Jury Trial Postoffice collection boxes have been established at the following places in town: Bush and Broadway, Center St. and Santa Fe depot; Olive and Center; Philadelphia and Broadway; Cypress and Hedwig; Los Angeles and Santa Ana (at S.P. depot); Los Angeles and Chestnut; Los Angeles and Sycamore; Lemon and Broadway; Lemon and Cypress; Palm and Center. WILL BEGIN JULY 20TH Anaheim Sugar Factory to Start Operations on That Date factory, was read before the Board of Trade Monday evening by Secretary Ahlborn. Mr. Hadsell stated that inasmuch as the board of trade had been largely instrumental in locating the factory here, had materially assisted in its construction and was vitally interested in it from an industrial standpoint, he extended an invitation to the board to visit the plant in a body and make a thorough examination of its inward workings. He fixed no date for the visit but suggested that a day during the first week of August be selected as the factory would then be running at full capacity. On motion the invitation was accepted with alacrity, but the date of the visit was not decided upon. Supplementary to the above H. G. Ames made a short speech in which he stated that the board of trade, being the representative commercial body of the city, should extend a welcoming hand to this new industry and suggested a banquet in honor of the officials of the factory, the same to take place on the date of the board's visit to the plant. The idea was enthusiastically received, and Earl Abbey, Fritz Yungbluth and C. Z. Vander Horck, who compose the standing committee on entertainment, were instructed to get busy and provide a feast fit for a sugar baron. The date is left to the judgment of the committee. J. W. Duckworth, chairman of the advertising committee, reported that his committee was compiling a descriptive pamphlet of Anaheim and the surrounding country and it would be printed at the earliest possible date. Judge Howard, he said, had been employed to take photographs of the buildings and objects of interest for the book, and it would be as thorough and complete a work as it was possible to make it. The board is badly handicapped for want of literature and as the advertising committee now has several hundred dollars on hand this work will be pushed as rapidly as possible. Chairman Eygabroad of the electric railway committee, said he had accomplished very little but he had been thinking. He suggested that a committee be appointed to confer with Pacific Electric officials, map out a route for the proposed line and then get busy on a right of way. Mr. Duckworth's suggestion that Olinda and Placentia be invited to add representatives to the committee was adopted, and Secretary Ahlborn was instructed to write the railway officials and fix a date for a conference. A wedding breakfast was served at high noon, the bridal pair leaving soon after. The objective point of the wedding journey was a romantic secret well kept by the happy couple. Only the immediate friends and kinfolk of the contracting parties were present, no formal invitations or announcement cards having been issued. Mr. and Mrs. Lester will be at home in their new bungalow on North Main street, Santa Ana, after Sept. 1st. The bride is a native Coloradoan. A graduate of the Colorado Teachers College, she is a clever water color artist and a pleasing musician. She taught in the public schools of Santa Ana during the current year, and with her winsome personality and her power to attract and attach choice friends, of whom she has many in Colorado, has made for herself a place in the hearts and homes of Santa Ana, where she will be warmly welcomed as a bride. Many beautiful gifts from other states as well as from friends locally, indicate the esteem in which the bride is held. Calvin D. Lester is a native son of California and has lived in Santa Ana for twelve years, and during all of that time has held positions of public trust with credit to himself and to his constituents. He holds the respect and admiration of a large circle of friends, being prominent in the political and social life of the county. A wealth of good wishes awaits the happy couple, whose return to Santa Ana will be greeted with sincere congratulations and cordial welcome. LONG SUFFERING EAST SIDERS Editor Gazette.-Some weeks ago the dust-laden residents of that portion of the city lying east of the Santa Fe tracks petitioned the city for relief from the clouds of dust which arise with each passing vehicle or with every gust of wind. The water distributing contrivance commonly known as the sprinkling or water wagon makes periodical visits on Broadway, and manages to cast a narrow shadow down the center of this broad street, but in so doing it raises enough dust to keep the housewives cleaning for the balance of the wedding song. The bride was unattended. She wore a lovely tailored gown of dahlia satin with a big picture hat, and carried a shower bouquet of lilies of the valley and orchids.

APPELLAS A rejoindayfromthesuperiorcaseofsinJoCerminedure. tric railway committee, said he had accomplished very little but he had been thinking. He suggested that a committee be appointed to confer with Pacific Electric officials, map out a route for the proposed line and then get busy on a right of way. Mr. Duckworth's suggestion that Olinda and Placentia be invited to add representatives to the committee was adopted, and Secretary Ahlborn was instructed to write the railway officials and fix a date for a conference. H. G. Ames, of the transportation committee, said he had been in communication with Mr. Valla, the Southern Pacific commercial agent, relative to better service on that road, and the matter had been passed up to higher officials. Mr. Valla could make no definite promises, but thought he would be able to get one more train each way in a short time. The military committee reported that the names of numerous volunteers were being added to the list, but a few more were required before it could be submitted to the adjutant general. The committee believed a sufficient number would be secured in a few days and that Anaheim would shortly have another military company. J. H. Ahlborn said he had been investigating the much talked of artistic lighting system for the business portion of town and had ascertained that the cost would be about or almost $200 a block. Four lights to the block would be required and they would cost perhaps $50 each. He was appointed a committee of one to talk it up with the business men, raise the necessary money and consummate the matter. A. A. Mills reported that the high school committee had invited Buena Park, Cypress, Savannah and other points to join the Anaheim high school district. The people of those dust-laden residents of that portion of the city lying east of the Santa Fe tracks petitioned the city for relief from the clouds of dust which arise with each passing vehicle or with every gust of wind. The water distributing contrivance commonly known as the sprinkling or water wagon makes periodical visits on Broadway, and manages to cast a narrow shadow down the center of this broad street, but in so doing it raises enough dust to keep the housewives cleaning for the balance of the week. Within thirty minutes this narrow ribbon of moisture is a thing of the past and the dust three inches deep lies serene in its victory over the water wagon. The petition was for oil on Broadway and Vine streets, and it is needed very badly. No doubt it will come in time, but the east side citizens would appreciate a prompt response to their appeal and an abatement of the dust nuisance. The condition of Broadway was caused by the scraping of the street after same had become dry. Had the work been done just after the rainy season, the soil would have had a chance to become packed before drying out. H. S. Jayne. BARACA CLASS MEETING Members of the Baraca class of the Presbyterian Sunday school met on Friday evening at the home of Paul Comstock on North Lemon St. for the regular monthly business meeting. Seven members of the class and the teacher were present. All bills have been paid and a balance of $2.35 remains in the treasury. Other business was transacted and on motion the meeting adjourned. After the business was disposed of refreshments of pine-apple ice, cake, wafers and candy were served, and games were played. An automobile joyride completed the evening's entertainment. TAKE THREE PRIZES Company 26 Does Itself Proud at Santa Barbara Encampment Returning here with three cash prizes aggregating $110, members of Company 26, U.R.K.P., are loud in their praises of the nine-days encampment of the third regiment at Santa Barbara.. The company returned on Sunday night's train and marched up town to Castle hall. At competitive drill on Thursday the company was awarded a special cash prize of $50, which is understood to be for the best officered company at the encampment. The company also gained a $50 cash prize for coming the longest distance to the encampment, and a third cash prize of $60 for maintaining the largest percentage of its members at encampment. Pasadena company won first cash prize of $100 and Gauntlet company of Los Angeles $50 for second prize. Brig.-Gen. Royer is loud in his praises of Santa Barbara and its hospitable people. He also has a word of praise for his home company, and announces that the company will go as his guests to the biennial meeting in Texas next year. A trip through the eastern and southern states is being planned. ENJOYABLE SURPRISE Misses Gertrude and Elsa Asher Remembered by Friends The Misses Gertrude and Elsa Asher were tendered a farewell party, prior to their departure for Los Angeles, in form of a surprise at their home on Monday evening, by the Girls' Sewing Club of this city.

ASKS JURY TRIAL Frank Burgfeld, lessee of the Adelheid baths, was placed under arrest on Monday on complaint of a German laborer employed by Mrs. Konig, owner of the bathhouse whom she sent to chop weeds in the street and alley at the structure. Burgfeld ordered the man away, and in the ensuing argument is alleged by the latter to have struck him. Burgfeld denied the charge, and asked for a jury trial. Judge Howard will hear the case on Monday. SUPERIOR JUDGE REVERSED Appellate Court, Hands Down Technical Decision A remittitur was received on Saturday at the county clerk's office from the appellate court reversing the superior court of this county in the case of Samuel Bohn against his cousin, John L. Bohn.. The case concerned a technical point of procedure. Samuel Bohn of Santa Ana was married yesterday at Santa Ana to Mrs. Jennie Deborah Green of Puente, formerly a resident of Anaheim. The marriage culminates a romance of years and joins in wedlock two hearts that have beat as one for a long time past. Following the ceremony, which was performed immediately after procuring the marriage license in County Clerk Williams' office, the happy couple took an electric car for Los Angeles, whence they proceeded to Avalon to spend their honeymoon. A bridal suite had been secured by the groom at the Hotel Metropole by telegraph some days before. Their honeymoon will be spent at the enchanted isle, where the newly wedded couple will be guests of honor at a round of society dinners, fishing parties and other pleasureable functions. On their return they will take up their residence at the handsome home of the groom on Claudina street. Mr. Helmsen is one of the best-known business men in this city, a man of large means and active in commercial and banking circles. His many friends have noted of late that his Sundays were spent at Puente, to which place he traveled in his auto, returning in the evening. Those on the inside knew the object of his trips, being aware of the fact that his inamorata dwelt at the other end of the line. These visits became more frequent, until recently it was given out that a wedding would shortly occur. Yesterday Mr. Helmsen went to Los Angeles on the early train to meet his bride-elect. The two proceeded to Santa Ana, where the nuptial knot was tied. Following the ceremony Mr. Helmsen and his bride left for Catalina. The bride is a former resident of this city where she has many friends who extend best wishes for her future happiness and welfare. She was connected while here with the post-office, and was for a time in charge of the telegraph office. In each position she proved herself to be courteous to patrons of the office, and won for herself many encomiums of praise for her many kindly attributes of mind and heart. For some years past she has resided with her brother, George E. Cross, at Puente, where she has filled the office of postmaster for a long time past. She showed her mettle a year or more ago when she secured for Puente a route of rural free delivery in face of strenuous opposition. Other towns were after the prize, but she proved a victor in the fight which had to be carried SUPERIOR JUDGE REVERSED Appellate Court, Hands Down Technical Decision A remittitur was received on Saturday at the county clerk's office from the appellate court reversing the superior court of this county in the case of Samuel Bohn against his cousin, John L. Bohn. The case concerned a technical point of procedure. Samuel Bohn of Santa Ana sued John L. Bohn of Clearwater for possession of a herd of dairy cows. Williams & Rutan appeared for plaintiff and W. P. Hyatt was attorney for defendant. The defendant moved for a change of venue to Los Angeles. The plaintiff declared he had not received ten days written notice, and Judge West held that that notice was necessary. The change of venue was denied and judgment was finally given Samuel Bohn. The defendant took an appeal on the ruling of the judge that the ten days written notice of a motion for a change of venue was necessary. Judge Allen of the upper court, writing the opinion, held that the notice if necessary, had been waived by the plaintiff because his attorneys were present at the hearing. Two of the judges, Shaw and James, went further in their opinion and held that "it was the duty of the court to make the change regardless of whether or not notice in writing of the time of hearing had been served on the plaintiff." By the order of the upper court the case will go to Los Angeles for trial, judgment being vacated. Mrs. L. K. Marshall was seriously ill on Saturday night with symptoms of ptomaine poisoning. She is improving, and will soon be herself again... W.C.T.U. ALL-DAY MEETING The W.C.T.U. will hold an all-day open air meeting next Tuesday, July 18th, at the home of its president, Mrs. L. C.
