SUGAR CAMPAIGN BEGINS Los Alamitos Factory First to Get Under Headway for Season Running day and night shifts, and giving employment to 200 men, the Los Alamitos sugar mill on Saturday began its season's campaign. The factory will slice beets from 12,000 acres, and will handle upward of 125,000 tons. The season will continue well on to November. Three other sugar mills at Anaheim, Huntington Beach and Santa Ana, will be in operation next week. The mills here and at Huntington Beach are in readiness for their first campaign. Great harvests of beets are anticipated. The season is two weeks late, owing to foggy weather, but fields are in superb condition. These factories will handle beets from about 30,000 acres, and, estimating an average of ten tons to the acre and $7 per ton, farmers will receive nearly $2,000,000 from these four factories. Taking into account some 3000 or 4000 acres in this section grown for the factories at Chino and Oxnard, the $2,000,000 mark will easily be passed. Each of the four factories in this county has some acreage signed in ANAHEIM GAZETTE Seet-growing sections outside of the county. The Anaheim factory has some beets at Corona and some at Clearwater; the Santa Ana factory has some at Clearwater and Lobo, and the Los Alamitos factory has a good territory on the Los Angeles side of the line, which is near the factory. Last year the Los Alamitos factory out 90,000 tons of beets, an amount forty per cent more than will be cut by any factory in the county this campaign. The Anaheim and Hunt-ington Beach factories are entering upon their first season, each factory being completed within the last few weeks. Within a year another factory will be built and in operation. It will be that of the Santa Ana Co-operative Sugar Company, which is to build four miles south of Santa Ana. This company is to be owned by Santa Ana men, among whom are James Arvine, James McFadden, A. L. Crookshank, A. Getty, R. T. Harris and Frank Monaghan. WEDDING BELLS Miss Ruth Ehearl Becomes Bride of Henry Stewart Miss Ruth Ehearl, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Ehearl, was married to Henry Stewart of San Juan at Santa Ana on Wednesday afternoon last. The ceremony was performed at the Presbyterian church, and Rev. Stephenson officiated. Only relatives and near friends attended. After the ceremony the wedding party returned to this city, where a wedding feast was prepared at the home of the bride's parents. Later in the evening Mr. and Mrs. Stewart left for their home in San Juan, at which point he is a prosperous rancher. The bride is one of the most popular young ladies of this city. She has been employed as teacher in the public schools, and has won praises train was under motion again. "I hadn't the heart," was the reply. He turned out to be an old school friend of mine." "I'll take care of him," said the conductor, as he started over the tops of the cars. After the train had made another stop and gone on, the brakeman came into the caboose and said to the conductor: "Well, is he off?" "No; he turned out to be an old school friend of mine, too." SAN DIEGO CELEBRATES Ground-Breaking Festivities Will Draw Great Crowd SAN DIEGO, July 18.—President Taft has appointed Hon. John Barrett director general of the Pan-American Union, his personal representative to attend the ground breaking ceremonies for the Panama-California exposition at San Diego July 19. Mr. Barrett is an old Californian, and lived at one time in San Diego. He arrived in San Diego with his party Tuesday, July 18, and will be the guest of the city while here, taking a most prominent part in the inauguration of the exposition project. Barrett in his official capacity, has already sent out a notice to all the Latin-American republics to the effect that the exposition is to be held in 1915 and that it will make a special effort to exploit the resources and history of the republics of Central and South America, as well as of the great southwestern portion of the United States and Mexico. He has been a consistent friend of the San Diego exposition and his coming, at the direction of the president, means that both the president and the state department are doing all possible to further the interests of the Panama-California Exposition. An elaborate program is being arranged for Mr. Barrett, who will turn a yond the present curb line, making a total of eighteen feet for sidewalk and parkwayy. A motion was carried that a request be made to the trustees to change their statement as Stephenson officiated. Only relatives and near friends attended. After the ceremony the wedding party returned to this city, where a wedding feast was prepared at the home of the bride's parents. Later in the evening Mr. and Mrs. Stewart left for their home in San Juan, at which point he is a prosperous rancher. The bride is one of the most popular young ladies of this city. She has been employed as teacher in the public schools, and has won praises from all with whom she came in contact. HORSE AND BUGGY STOLEN Hold-up Men Believed to Be Men Responsible for the Act While J. C. Idlor was attending the Pythian lodge on Wednesday evening last, his horse and buggy, which had been hitched to the rack at the side of Dickel's store on Lemon St., was stolen. The theft was not discovered until 11:30 o'clock, when Mr. Idlor went to procure it to drive home. Marshal Kellenberger was notified. He telephoned Sheriff Rudock. On Thursday morning the rig was recovered at Santa Ana. That the rig was taken by the two hold-up men who robbed Mrs. Matthews and Mrs. Rice is the belief of officers. The men drove along Lemon street toward the north, throwing one of the empty purses in the Deutsch tract. The other was thrown near the Christian church. Reaching Santa Ana, they probably took an electric car for Los Angeles. OLD SCHOOLMATES MEET Drafted in Danish Army Together, Meet Again in Anaheim N. P. Hansen and wife drove to Placentia on Sunday to pay a visit to the Anderson boys, whom he used to know in Denmark. Mr. Hansen found Ty Anderson away at the beach, but spent the day pleasantly with Nels and Chris. He and Ty Anderson were schoolmates in Denmark, and were both drafted into the Danish army in 1882. One day last fall Mr. Hansen met Nels Anderson in town, and after a short conversation recognized him as a kid he used to know in the old country. After an introduction by a friend, a conversation ensued, when it was learned that the boys were old schoolmates and used to go bathing in the same creek which separated their fathers' farms. Despite Hansen's splendid physique, he insists he was never given enough to eat while a kid, and at noon, history of the republics of Central and South America, as well as of the great southwestern portion of the United States and Mexico. He has been a consistent friend of the San Diego exposition and his coming, at the direction of the president, means that both the president and the state department are doing all possible to further the interests of the Panama-California Exposition. An elaborate program is being arranged for Mr. Barrett, who will turn a spadeful of earth in the president's name and receive the president's flag which President Taft will release by pressing a button either at the White House or at the summer capital, signaling the opening gun of the celebration in California of the completion of the Panama canal. This city is putting on the finishing touches in decorations and preparation to entertain the largest crowd that has ever gathered in her borders, for the celebration July 19-22. Every street in the city is profusely decorated. Every business block and most of the private residences are decorated. The hotel committee has taken quarters in a new building on D street, between the depots and the plaza and will be in session continuously from July 18 to July 22nd. The committee has listed nearly 20,000 rooms in hotels, lodging houses, apartment houses and private residences. Each room owner has signed an agreement with the committee to keep in force the regular, off season, rates, and there will be no trouble about housing every visitor to San Diego the moment he arrives in the city. San Diego feels that the impression her visitors carry away after the trip here this month will be far reaching and she proposes to do all possible to live up to her reputation for hospitality and good treatment to every visitor that comes to see her. With the huge Hotel Coronado, the U.S. Grant Hotel, the dozen smaller hotels, the many apartment houses and lodging houses, the thousands of residences and the huge Tent City, there will be room for 40,000 persons to stay in comfort while taking in the celebration. Trolly lines and boat lines, railroad and stage lines are preparing to move the crowds easily and swiftly,, so that there will be maximum of comfort with the minimum of delay during the celebration. Advices at hand show that there will be at least 35,000 visitors here when the celebration opens. yond the present curb line, making a total of eighteen feet for sidewalk and parkway. A motion was carried that a request be made to the trustees to so change their statement as to make a positive agreement to pass such an ordinance, in order that this company may have full protection before the proposed new pipe-line is constructed on this street. On motion of Hale, seconded by Drake, the secretary was instructed to investigate a proposed new schedule of rates for electric power supplied by the Edison company, and, if advisable, to obtain a new form of contract as suggested by the Edison company, and submit same at the next meeting of the board for approval. Application from Charles Giese for a connection to the new pipe-line on Sabina street, Anaheim, was referred to the superintendent with power to act. Request from Mrs. Pittman for a pipe-line from the main canal to her 20 acres adjoining the reservoir, for water for stock purposes, was referred to the secretary to answer. Applications on file for the transfer of stock were on motion granted. A communication was received from the trustees of the Anaheim Union High School, stating that the A.U.W.Co. pipe-line comes in the way of foundation for one of their new buildings. Request was made that the company take steps to protect the pipe-line, as excavations would be made around the pipe, although it would not be necessary to remove it. Advice was obtained from Attorney Melrose as to procedure to protect the company's interests. On motion of Hale, seconded by Drake, the secretary was instructed to immediately send a reply to the communication as outlined by Mr. Melrose, stating the objections to having the building constructed above the pipe-line, and suggesting that a new right of way be granted for the reconstruction of the pipeline, the cost of reconstruction to be paid by 'he high school. The ditch committee were on motion given power to act 'in regard to further action in the matter. On motion of Hale, seconded by Dwyer, the superintendent was auth- were both drafted into the army in 1882. One day last fall Mr. Hansen met Nels Anderson in town, and after a short conversation recognized him as a kid he used to know in the old country. After an introduction by a friend, a conversation ensued, when it was learned that the boys were old schoolmates and used to go bathing in the same creek which separated their fathers' farms. Despite Hansen's splendid physique, he insists he was never given enough to eat while a kid, and at noon, while at the side of the creek with the Anderson boys, he used to replenish the inner man from their well-filled lunch baskets. Nels told Ty of the old friend he had met, and the latter came in to see him. A pleasant meeting resulted, each recalling incidents of their school days, as well as of the time when they were drafted into the Danish army. GOOD OLD SCHOOL DAYS The conductor of a western freight train saw a tramp stealing a ride on top of one of the forward cars. He told a brakeman in the caboose to go up and put the man off at the next stop and when the brakeman approached the trump the latter waved a big revolver and told him to keep away. "Did you get rid of him?" the conductor asked the brakeman when there will be room for 40,000 persons to stay in comfort while taking in the celebration. Trolly lines and boat lines, railroad and stage lines are preparing to move the crowds easily and swiftly, so that there will be the maximum of comfort with the minimum of delay during the celebration. Advices at hand show that there will be at least 35,000 visitors here when the celebration opens.
