VOLUME XXXXIII Y.M.C.A. BUILDING IN ANAHEIM ASSURED PLANS HAVE BEEN ACCEPTED BY THE BUILDING COMMITTEE—WORK TO BEGIN SOON GENERAL Y. M. C. A. MEETING TO BE HELD TUESDAY NEXT IN CHAMBER OF COMMERCE That Anaheim will have a Young Men's Christian Association building before the Christmas holidays is practically assured, since plans for the building have been virtually accepted by the building committee and steps have been taken for the early beginning of the building on the association's two lots on South Philadelphia street. The building as planned will have an assembly room, two or three class rooms, kitchen, lockers and shower baths. The lots will probably be enclosed with a board fence and electric arrangements for a time and place of meeting. An older boys' class will soon be formed and will probably take up Bible study inside of two weeks. AUTO RUNS INTO TRAIN Two Myford Men Have Miraculous Escape From Injury A badly demolished Flanders roadster was run into Weisel's garage Saturday evening for repairs. The front glass, radiator, lamps, fenders and other mechanism were put out of commission and the machine otherwise damaged and battered up. The car was driven by a Myford man who with a companion, hit the high places out of town on South Los Angeles street at 9:30 o'clock the same evening. It is said the machine was going at a speed of 45 miles per hour. Its speed attracted the attention of traffic officers in town who called upon the driver to stop. Throwing wide open his throttle, the driver increased his speed and was soon traveling toward Santa Ana street where a freight train stood across the thoroughfare. The auto collided head-on with a flat car, its wheels being wedged under the car. How the men escaped instant death is a mystery. The demolished car was brought back for repairs and the two men were taken home in another ma- That Anaheim will have a Young Men's Christian Association building before the Christmas holidays is practically assured, since plans for the building have been virtually accepted by the building committee and steps have been taken for the early beginning of the building on the association's two lots on South Philadelphia street. The building as planned will have an assembly room, two or three class rooms, kitchen, lockers and shower baths. The lots will probably be enclosed with a board fence and electric lights strung overhead to allow of athletic games and contests at night. The building proposition has been holding fire during the summer, owing to the absence of members, etc., but it has not been dead, and the building committee, composed of Wm. McLaughlin, Chas. Eygabroad, W. M. Wickett, J. F. Walker and J. W. Duckworth, has been active in investigating different types of buildings and has now practically decided upon plans for the building. The association ball was started to rolling Sunday afternoon when a Y. M. C. A. rally was held in the Presbyterian church. The county secretary, R. J. Hamilton of Santa Ana, chairman of the county committee, Geo. B. Key, of Placentia, and several members of the county committee were present, besides young men of the association from this city, Santa Ana and Garden Groye. Sixty-five young men were on hand and an enthusiastic rally was held. Short talks were given by Geo. B. Key, R. J. Hamilton and other young men. At this time it was announced that a meeting of the Anaheim Y. M. C. A. would be held Monday evening in the Chamber of Commerce rooms in the public library building. In response to the invitation, a number of Y. M. C. A. boosters met at the appointed time and place, and with President L. O. Culp presiding, enthusiastically discussed matters of importance to the local association, chief among which was the matter of the new building. Wm. McLaughlin, on behalf of the building committee, of which he is chairman, announced that plans for the building had been virtually accepted, and upon the return of J. W. Duckworth the latter part of the week from Hawaii, final action by the committee would be taken. An amendment to the constitution was introduced and after some discussion was unanimously adopted. It provides for the election of nine active members of the association as members of the board of control. This board is to have the entire management of the association's affairs in its speed attracted the attention of traffic officers in town who called upon the driver to stop. Throwing wide open his throttle, the driver increased his speed and was soon traveling toward Santa Ana street where a freight train stood across the thoroughfare. The auto collided head-on with a flat car, its wheels being wedged under the car. How the men escaped instant death is a mystery. The demolished car was brought back for repairs and the two men were taken home in another machine by Earl Crist. The machine's number is 78050 and the register shows it is the property of R. J. Callens, of Myford, which is located on San Joaquin ranch some miles south of Santa Ana. BUSINESS GREAT, SAYS MR. RAY Fullerton Merchant Has Nothing But Tidings of Great Joy "Business is great, and this poster is fine and dandy," said Maurice Ray, of the Stern & Goodman Mercantile Company, the first of the week as he o.k.'ed a 6,000 run of a full sheet poster in the Gazette job office. Maurice was in town on a business trip in his auto, and dropped in to see the boys in the print shop, who have always a hand for him, and some times two. In the absence of Gus Stern, who is in San Francisco for a brief vacation, Maurice is in charge of the private office of his company, and is making good. He radiates good cheer wherever he goes, says business is booming, and times simply overwhelmed with prosperity. "Business is great, and we are doing more of it just now than ever before," he said. "I look for a top notch winter's business, and with our usual rains to come, you will not know Orange county before long, for we have before us promises of greatest prosperity in our history." It cannot be otherwise with such an enthusiastic booster on the scent of increased business and a greater degree of prosperity. Maurice stacks up as an all-right hombre. He has the hand clasp of a Muldoon, the smile of a promoter and his cigars are the envy of smokers hereabout. MISSION OPENED IN ANAHEIM Fred Page Opens Non-Sectarian Mission on South Los Angeles Street An independent, non-sectarian mission has been opened at 120 South Los Angeles street, with Fred Page as superintendent, its object being to preach the simple gospel of salvation from sin and do the regular work of a city mission including looking after the which he is chairman, announced that plans for the building had been virtually accepted, and upon the return of J. W. Duckworth the latter part of the week from Hawaii, final action by the committee would be taken. An amendment to the constitution was introduced and after some discussion was unanimously adopted. It provides for the election of nine active members of the association as members of the board of control. This board is to have the entire management of the association's affairs in its hands, and appoints members of the young men's cabinet, who have in charge the active work of the association. This cabinet appoints the various committees and is responsible to the board of control for their work. The amendment was favored as shifting the responsibility and work upon the shoulders of the younger men, who, as a rule, have more time and enthusiasm than the older men. Next Tuesday evening, October 29, was appointed as the date for a general meeting of members of the association and others interested, to elect officers, take steps for beginning immediate work upon the association building and attend to all other matters pertaining to local Y. M. C. A. work. The meeting will be held in the Chamber of Commerce rooms in the library building at 7:45 o'clock. All members and friends of the Young Men's Christian Association are urgently requested to attend. The building committee will at this time make a final and definite report and the meeting will probably take action which will insure speedy beginning of the local Y. M. C. A. building. This is a community enterprise and all should boost and boost hard for it. Prof. H. P. C. Lent, of the High School faculty, was appointed to teach a Y. M. C. A. Bible class for boys of ages 12 to 14 or thereabouts and he is now making ar- MISSION OPENED IN ANAHEIM Fred Page Opens Non-Sectarian Mission on South Los Angeles Street An independent, non-sectarian mission has been opened at 120 South Los Angeles street, with Fred Page as superintendent, its object being to preach the simple gospel of salvation from sin and do the regular work of a city mission, including looking after the poor, securing employment for the unemployed as far as possible and furnishing a free rest room to ladies coming into the city to do shopping. If any other needs present themselves they will be looked after. Monthly pledges are being solicited to cover the rent of the hall. L. E. Miller will act as treasurer. Every month the pledge will be collected by an authorized collector who will give a receipt for same and turn over the money collected to the treasurer. The mission has been provided with the necessary furniture, except a street organ. The latter has been purchased and contributions will be solicited to meet the payments for same. Friends interested in this good work can leave their contributions with L. E. Miller, or with Fred Page, the superintendent. Christians of all denominations are urgently requested to help in the open air meetings, which will be held every week. Those interested are welcome to make inquiries concerning the nature of the mission and the work planned. W. R. Hill has petitioned for letters of administration on the estate of William J. Hill, who died on July 30. The estate is valued at $50,000, of which the principal portion is 80 acres of land north or Mesto station. Williams & Rutan are attorneys for the petitioner. ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1912 BANK RECEPTION A SOCIETY EVENT FORMAL OPENING OF ANAHEIM NATIONAL BANK ATTENDED BY LARGE THRONGS PRESIDENT EYGABROAD ARRIVES FROM EAST DURING PROGRESS OF EVENING'S RECEPTION Upward of a thousand of the city's leading people assembled at the spacious quarters of the Anaheim National Bank Saturday afternoon and evening in response to invitations issued for the formal opening. From 3 to 5 o'clock in the afternoon the bank was crowded with ladies and gentlemen who were shown through the splendidly equipped financial establishment, and in the evening from 7 to 9 o'clock, hundreds availed themselves of the opportunity to inspect the spacious and handsome appointed institution. A delightful feature of the evening was the arrival of drying Chile peppers W. C. Mauerhan Preparing Excellent Crop For Shipment W. C. Mauerhan, the well known west end chile grower, this week began drying a fine crop which he is harvesting from a 20-acre field. Mr. Mauerhan and his brother will dry and ship chiles from an area of 50 acres and will this week forward to market the first of a six-carload consignment, for which he already has orders in hand. Prices are satisfactory, figures ranging along those received last year. The crop is the best ever raised by him, the peppers being large and of fine texture. He finds a ready market in Arizona and other southwestern states and much of the product finds its way into Mexico. Mr. Mauerhan is an enthusiastic booster for good roads, and states that as thoroughfares cannot be built without the expenditure of large sums of money, he will work earnestly for carrying the $1,270,000 bond issue to be voted upon November 4. If anything, he considers the amount too small. While others may decry the propriety of this bond issue, he is ready to take his coat off and do his utmost to the end that the bonds might carry and work upon roads immediately begun.

Deposits run well up to the $100,000 figure, and the number of depositors is nearly two hundred. The bank is one of the most handsomely equipped in Southern California. It is very handsomely furnished and the vault, safe and safe deposit boxes are of the latest and most approved manufacture. The visitors continued arriving until 9 o'clock and were shown about the premises. All were outspoken in praise of the handsomely equipped institution and offered officers and directors best wishes for the bank's continued success. At close of the reception, members of the orchestra whose music contributed largely to the success of the reception, and the young ladies presiding at the punch bowls and register, who also did much to make the gathering a success, were taken by bank officials to a neighboring restaurant and tendered a sumptuous spread.

BRY IS ALWAYS OBLIGING Issues Marriage License Late at Night, Introduces Couple to Judge Fullerton in Pink Pajamas County Clerk Williams has the reputation of being the most accommodating official in the state, and Saturday night he "ran true to form" when he issued a marriage license to a Long Beach couple at 10 o'clock. Then the obliging county clerk offered to assist in finding a justice. He and his wife entered the automobile in which the young couple had driven from the beach and drove to Orange. Williams landed on Judge Fullerton's front porch about 10:30. He turned in several fire alarms and a COMES A MERRY CANDIDATE FOR POSTMASTER WOODS FULL OF UNTERRIFIED, EAR TO GROUND, READY FOR SCALPS FANCY DISCERNED SIGNS OF APPROACHING CHANGE AT NATIONAL CAPITAL With the presidential election 11 days off, and with signs which to their practiced eye suggest coming changes at the national capital, political inroads in Orange county are full of unterrified braves off the reservation and clamoring for scalps of Republican postmasters from one end of the county to the other.

Then the obliging county clerk offered to assist in finding a justice. He and his wife entered the automobile in which the young couple had driven from the beach and drove to Orange. Williams landed on Judge Fullerton's front porch about 10:30. He turned in several fire alarms and a riot call at the door bell and soon had the judicial pajamas flapping in the midnight zephyrs. The judge was sleepy, but willing, and soon had the marital knot securely fastened. The license gave the names of the couple as L. D. Harthorn and Blanche Rea. The couple took Williams and his wife back to Santa Ana and left them at home. Shortly thereafter the father of the groom arrived at the Williams residence. He wanted to stop the wedding, but was too late. He hustled on to San Diego, where he believed they had gone. He declared that the groom was not of age. The next day Bry received something of a shock when he discovered that he had been riding in a stolen automobile. A warrant reached Santa Ana for the arrest of young Harthorn, charging that the machine was stolen. The bride and groom did not go to San Diego, but returned and stayed Saturday night in Orange. It is not known where they are at present. GOOD CONCERT AT HIGH SCHOOL Fisher, Shipp Company Renders Program of High Merit That the entertainment given in the High School auditorium Tuesday night by the Fisher, Shipp Concert Company made a decided hit will be attested by all who were fortunate enough to attend. The program consisted of vocal solos, instrumental solos, readings and musical sketches. It was rendered in a first-class manner, and the different numbers elicited much applause. A good-sized crowd was in attendance to this, the first concert of the High School lyceum course, and all are well satisfied with the program. Ross Crane, the cartoonist, who was booked for the next entertainment of the course for next Monday evening, is now in Texas and will not be able to get here in time to fulfill his engagement. Arrangements are being made whereby he will either appear here at a later date or a substitute entertainment will be provided.

Sagamore Head, chairman of the Democratic county central committee, has broken for tall timber to escape bombardment of the merry candidates out for office long before their presidential candidate may get into the White House, if indeed, he be not left after all, when the votes are counted. To this latter hypothesis, they reply that Chief Wilson cannot lose, and are taking time by the forelock to get in on the ground floor in order to have advantageous positions when pie-cutting time arrives. Sagamore Head is chief medicine man of the party in Orange county, and his refusal so far to endorse anyone of the many county seat candidates, is taken by some to indicate that he wants the job for himself. Whether this be true or not, cannot be authoritatively stated, and when effort was made to locate him for an interview yesterday, it was given out by those nearest to him that he had not yet come down from the mountain. Neither has Head endorsed any of the numerous candidates in Fullerton and ground exists for the opinion among some of the pie-chasers that Head is holding his partner, Lawyer Mark, in reserve, to trot out at the psychological moment for Postmaster Edwards' job. Sachem Ames, of this city, who was chairman of the recent Democratic county convention, and is credited with dictating the party's platform, has not yet broken off the reservation, but it is said that if he chose to do so, applied war paint to his handsome countenance and took in hand his trusty tomahawk, he might make trouble for a bunch of candidates who are bobbing up serenity for the office. So far he has not announced his purpose of entering the lists, and it might be a difficult task to pry him loose from his lucrative law practice. In this city there are to date four candidates for the office of postmaster. One of them an estimable lady who is going to give other aspirants the race of their lives for the fat salaried appointment. She is bright and clever, knows the political game, has strong political backing here and elsewhere and is making progress in her fight thus early in the race. Two of the city's leading merchants are also in the running and it is said that when Kettner was here on his recent visit, he was heard to observe, "How happy could I be with either, were t'other good fellow away."

Twenty dollars in prizes had been offered to the High School students selling the most season tickets for the lyceum course, $10 as first prize to the one selling most over 40 tickets, $5 to the one selling the next highest number over 20 tickets, and $2.50 each to the next two selling the next highest number which must be at least 10. Miss Evelyn Finney was the first prize by selling 44 tickets, Miss Elizabeth Goertzen second prize by selling 26 tickets and Frank Schacht won one of the $2.50 prizes, the other being unclaimed as no other person had sold over 10. Checks were presented the winners by Prof. Walker before the beginning of the entertainment Tuesday evening. Mrs. C. H. Newcombe entertained with dinner at "Newcombe Place" Sunday. She was assisted by her daughter, Mrs. Rudolfe L. Grenke. Covers were laid for 12. Among the out-of-town guests present were Mr. and Mrs. C. Ernest Perkins of San Bernardino, Howard R. Link of Puente, Kurt Epstein of El Monte and Miss Elsa Grenke of Long Beach. Others present were Miss Frances Dunning, Enid Stone and Mr. and Mrs. Grenke. The affair was in the honor of Mr. and Mrs. Perkins, who have recently returned from an extended trip including visits to Boston and New York. One of them an estimable lady who is going to give other aspirants the race of their lives for the fat salaried appointment. She is bright and clever, knows the political game, has strong political backing here and elsewhere and is making progress in her fight tuus early in the race. Two of the city's leading merchants are also in the running and it is said that when Kettner was here on his recent visit, he was heard to observe, "How happy could I be with either, were t'other good fellow away." Each got near to the San Diego man, who they are betting upon to beat the Riverside Bull Mooser in the 11th district, and each will be near the throne of political grace should Kettner win a seat in the lower house of congress. Each is an unterrified Democrat from away back, never voted a Republican ticket in their lives, and each is a party wheel horse when it comes to campaign time. Another prospective candidate who is not yet altogether off the reservation, but who may be so at any minute, is a well known orange grower in the northwest section of this city, whose Democratic politics extend back to the time when the mountains of the Cascade Range were holes in the ground. He has been a delegate to county conventions for a generation and was up and doing for the success of his party when there was not another Democrat to be seen for miles and miles around. Should he get into the fray, he will make the fur fly. Meantime Postmaster Duckworth is on the high seas, hastening home from Honolulu. He has several years yet to serve, and a wireless message from midocean states he is resting easy with pulse and temperature normal. He will probably take a hand in the fracas upon his return although he leans to the opinion that Taft will be re-elected and there need not be so much scalping after all.
