STRONG BASEBALL TEAM
Anaheim Will Be Represented by Fast Bunch of Athletes
The majority of the members of the new Anaheim 1911-12 ball team held their first practice game on the new grounds near the high school on Sunday and nearly every one of the boys is in fine condition for the hard campaign before them. Mensenkamp is in prime condition and it is thought that he will be much improved over last season, and that is saying a good deal for that boy certainly did some fine work in the numerous games he participated in last fall and winter.
Gerken, a new man from Orange, will be behind the bat and he is said to be a comer.
Joe Hendricks, the best amateur first baseman in Southern California, will again hold down the first station.
Fisher, the veteran of many a hard fought battle, will guard the keystone bag.
Lewis is to be captain again this year and will play in the short field, and, by the way, when/a ball gets through that boy's territory its got to be traveling some.
Carpenter, the old reliable, will again hold down the three-quarter station, and with that big stick of his, will be about the most valuable man on the team.
The outfield will be composed of Goddard, Huntington and Schindler, three fast players and good stickers. Besides the above Staats and "Lefty" Spencer look pretty good and may land a berth.
And luscious berries plenty,
From March until July,
With shortcake always handy
Till it's time for cherry pie.
Oh, such a wondrous country,
Don't you wish that you were here
With ripening fruits and flowers
Throughout the whole round year.
And still your chance is open;
Better strike while the iron's hot.
And secure a home among us,
Next to Heaven''s corner lot.

Girl Released on Probation, Rearrested for Uttering Bad Checks
Declaring that she had given Carl J. Thomas over $1000 to buy diamonds and fine clothes and that it was to meet his further demands for money that she began to cash fictitious checks, Miss Helen Montgomery on Friday afternoon in the superior court at Santa Ana, pleaded guilty to a felony and was placed upon three years probation. Smiling with joy over her freedom, she walked from the courtroom with her attorney, only to have her smiles turned to sobs when County Detective Maehl of Los Angeles, arrested her on a charge of passing a fictitious check upon William Chappell, a Glendale merchant.
Superior Judge Cole of El Centro was on the bench when the girl and her attorney, S. J. Sullivan, of Los Angeles asked for probation.
The girl on the witness stand said that she is 19 years old and went to Los Angeles from Bisbee, Ariz., two years ago and got employment as a waitress.

N. P. Hansen's Friend Drops Into Poetry About Southern California
C. F. Ganze of Lindsay, Cal., formerly of Reinbeck, Iowa, an old-time friend of N. P. Hansen of this city, is a poet. Also he is a friend of California. He has lived in this state two years, coming here in 1909, when Iowa doctors informed him he had but a few days to live. He is recovering his health, and is prospering under the sunny skies of God's country. Ganze some time ago read in his Rheinbeck paper a letter from a temporary sojourner, in which Southern California was referred to in disparaging terms. He took his pen in hand, and wrote the following poem, in defense of his adopted state, which was printed in the Rheinbeck Courier of date Sept. 1:

charge of passing a fictitious check upon William Chappell, a Glendale merchant.
Superior Judge Cole of El Centro was on the bench when the girl and her attorney, S. J. Sullivan, of Los Angeles asked for probation.
The girl on the witness stand said that she is 19 years old and went to Los Angeles from Blisbee, Ariz., two years ago and got employment as a waitress.
She told the story of her life there very simply and clearly, and not until she had left the stand did she break down and weep.
"I met Carl J. Thomas about fifteen months ago," she said. "I lived at No. 540 South Spring street as his wife. He lived elsewhere with his mother, Mrs. Pat Smith. He was employed as an ironworker.
"My father died about a year ago and I got $1000 from his insurance. I gave Carl the money; he bought diamonds and fine clothes. He bought thirteen or fourteen suits of clothes at $45 a suit.
"He demanded more money and I was afraid he would desert me in my condition. I sold my clothes and gave him the money. Then I borrowed from my friends and I gave that money to him, too. He never gave me a cent. He never paid my room rent. He never bought me any thing.
"A short time before I was arrested he told me he had to have some money by a certain date. So I went out to raise it by cashing bad checks. I cashed two of them, one at Glendale and one at Long Beach and gave him the money. Then I cashed the $15 check on the Rowley drug company and was arrested.
"Then he deserted me. When I was in trouble he did not come to my rescue. I have been told his mother says he has gone to San Francisco, and his former employers say he is in Bakersfield."
Attorney Sullivan made an appeal to the judge, stating that the effect of jail life upon the mother might be such as to effect not only the life of the mother but the life of one yet unborn.

Next to Heaven's Corner Lot
Our matchless climate, brother.
It cannot be surpassed,
And we have a good assurance
That it's always going to last.
Come out and get a sample
And you'll rise and bless the day
When you flung away your scruples
And come out west to stay.
We have some chilly weather,
A little frost and rain.
The snow falls on the mountain
But never on the plain.
While King Winter crowns the hilltops
With his glistening cap of snow
We're dwelling in the vale secure
Where the orange and roses grow.
And then to think o' springtime
A-lasting half the year,
From November on, through every month
'Till joyous May is here.
We only have two seasons,
And we're honest when we sing
That spring just follows summer
And summer follows spring.
The harvests of the summer
Are scarcely all in store,
When seedtime is upon us
And we're starting in once more
To plant our early gardens
And sow our fields of grain.
Then up they come a springing
With the first November rain.
Then think of oranges ripening
Like burnished globes of gold
From November up till month of May,
In eastern marts are sold.
RINGLING BROS. AT SANTA ANA
World's Greatest Show Will Exhibit there on Friday, Sept. 22
Announcement is made that on Friday, Sept. 22, Ringling Brothers' World's Greatest Shows will give two performances in Santa Ana.
As in past years Anaheim will send its percentage of the surrounding country to swell the throngs. This is the greatest of American circuses in every sense of the word, and an event not to be overlooked by the lovers of wholesome amusement.
For many years the Ringling Brothers have maintained the most popular as well as the best show. This year they are more than ever giving patron's their money's worth. Among the many great attractions under the twelve acres of canvas are Professor Emory's troupe of trained baby elephants, the wonderful Schuman performing horses from the Circus Schuman, Germany; "Toque" the dog marvel of England which does a squersaulting performance on the back of a swiftly running horse; the wonderful Alex family of French aerialists; the great C roker family of Gypsy riders; the Deltorelli family of Hungarian clowns, once entertainers in the court of the Shah of Persia; the Bonsetti family of Italian acrobats, the Castrillion family of Italian acrobats; the Hodgini family of Italian equestrians, and the fifty greatest of clowns on earth.
In the menagerie is found Tiny Tom Tinker, the smallest elephant ever seen in America. In all there are forty elephants and 1200 other wild beasts, comprising the rarest of zoological specimens. The morning parade is the greatest street spectacle ever devised for circus purposes. There are three miles of it and every mile a mile of wonders.
Barbara, San Bernardino Diego means that co-operation for the open through train service and passenger traffic be installed. It is uninterrupted on trolley trains run on the trunk lines.
As present terminals the Pacific Electric line are vastly overcrowded business of the proposed cessitate that they be rupled. This will mean and subway arteries will installed and the depot.
The great amount of war that will be required eration of the new 100 track has already been with the Edison Electrification.
The development of power alone will cost dollars, and will be from the Crane valley Big creek development gun by the Huntington bond issue of $40,000.
The San Diego line, one of the extensions first, will, through the ric, throw the Southern competition with the S for freight and passengers into San Diego, and with city relief from the controlled by the San line is to be built with asted tracks, that electric great power and speed rated over it.

It has offices in every capital of Europe and Asia and foreign workshops near Liverpool. It employs over 2000 people, 1286 of whom travel with the show.

GIANT ELECTRIC MERGER
Means Much to Anaheim and Orange County
An electric railway merger announced this week in Los Angeles has much in store for this city, Fullerton, Placentia and other sections of Orange county. Enlargements of the Pacific Electric railway mean that an electric line will be built through this city from the La Habra line, touching at Santa Ana, and continuing on to San Diego. Sleeping car and dining service will be established on lines running to San Diego and Santa Barbara.
By a new $100,000,000 corporation, and the merging under a single management of all the interurban trolley lines in Southern California, the Pacific Electric railroad becomes the largest united electric railway system in the world.
Official announcement is made that its present trackage of 875 miles will be increased to 1875 miles, while the scope of territory made tributary by these extensions will be more than quadrupled. Work on a portion of the new lines is already under way and it is officially stated that the construction of the entire system will be carried forward as fast as material can be secured and rights of way and terminal facilities obtained.
Here are the extensions which are made a matter a matter of record in the articles of incorporation of the new concern of which W. F. Herrin of San Francisco is the head:
The Glendora line will be extended to San Bernardino.
The Covina line will be built through Pomona to Riverside.
From the La Habra line a line will be run to Riverside with a branch through Anaheim to Santa Ana.
From a point on the Covina line to Long Beach a new cutoff will be run.
From Santa Ana a trunk line to San Diego will be built.
Extension of the road to Santa Barbara, San Bernardino and San Diego means that complete modern equipment for the operation of the through train service for both freight and passenger traffic must and will be installed. It is understood that sleeping and dining cars will be operated on trolley trains running through on the trunk lines.

Barbara, San Bernardino and San Diego means that complete modern equipment for the operation of the through train service for both freight and passenger traffic must and will be installed. It is understood that sleeping and dining cars will be operated on trolley trains running through on the trunk lines.
As present terminal facilities of the Pacific Electric in Los Angeles are vastly overcrowded, the increased business of the proposed lines will necessitate that they be at least quadrupled. This will mean both elevated and subway arteries will have to be installed and the depot site enlarged.
The great amount of additional power that will be required for the operation of the new 1000 miles of new track has already been contracted for with the Edison Electric company.
The development of this additional power alone will cost several million dollars, and will be brought largely from the Crane valley dam, and the Big creek developments, recently begun by the Huntington people under a bond issue of $40,000,000.
The San Diego line, which will be one of the extensions to be taken up first, will, through the Pacific Electric, throw the Southern Pacific into competition with the Santa Fe, both for freight and passenger business into San Diego, and will give that city relief from the monopoly now controlled by the Santa Fe. This line is to be built with heavily ballasted tracks, that electric trains of great power and speed may be operated over it.
