HEYING'S DRUG STORE ANAHEIM "The sweetness of low price seldom equals the bitterness of poor quality." Such is the deduction of James Youngdeer, head of the Pathe company, which is camped on the S. & M. ranch. Mr. Youngdeer was the chief actor in an unpleasant little drama at the camp Sunday which centered about the big, tame "movie" bear. For some time the bear has been troubled with a mouth disease and the men at the camp undertook to examine him. They had roped him and Mr. Youngdeer approached to make the examination when the bear folded him in loving embrace and at the same time sunk a pair of fangs into the managerial cheek. Youngdeer withdrew precipitately. Although the wounds were dressed with every care there is some fear that it will be serious considering that the bear's mouth was diseased. RUN DOWN BY AUTO Harry Wagers was left bleeding and semi-conscious beside the road Thursday night by a man who had collided with him. Wagers works at the gas works at Santa Ana and was riding on his bicycle to his home at Orange when he had a head-on collision on South Batavia with another bicyclist. The man who struck him lighted a match and looked into Wagers' face, which was covered with blood. Probably frightened at the idea that he might have killed the man, the bicyclist deserted the injured man and rode away hurriedly. Wagers was left to shift for himself, which he did. His face is badly cut. The lower lip is cut through and the upper lip was cut nearly as badly. He does not know who the other bicyclist was. Insure your tires with Sure Shop Tire Compound. Will positively eliminate the trouble of punctures. P. J. Weisel & Co., agents, Anaheim and Placentia.

The construction work commences at once. Bids have been called for on six miles of road west from San Bernardino to be opened and the contract awarded July 21. This is on the foothill boulevard. Road Contracts Let The first contracts for building Orange county good roads have been let to W. A. Dontanville of Los Angeles and C. E. Chamberlain of Anaheim. The former will build the three and a half miles on Orangethorpe avenue for $13,993.75 and the latter the five and a quarter miles of the Santa Ana-Huntington Beach road for $32,035.12. Bids for the Tustin-Orange roads will be opened July 22. The Pacific Rock & Gravel Company will furnish rock, gravel and sand where it will be cheaper than to haul it from the county plant at McPherson. Visiting Outfall sewer Four members of the Board of Supervisors of Orange county met with local business men here Thursday and after a thorough consideration of the problems involved declared themselves in favor of a coast boulevard from Bay City to Laguna Beach. The proposed road will cost $100,000. About one-fifth of that sum is available at present and it will be used in the construction of a bridge at Anaheim Landing. The land department of the Pacific lature goes into effect. McPhee is a member of the board of city trustees and as a councilman has been one of the most aggressive and active members of the board. His decision to apply for the appointment was brought about by his conclusion that he ought to turn to some occupation less confining than newspaper work. The position will pay $5 a day and necessary expenses in traveling over the county. The duties of the official will call for tests of scales of all kinds from those used by the sugar factories down to the smallest used by druggists, for tests of measures used in mercantile and other businesses and for weighing of products, such as butter, bread, etc. The decision of the supervisors to make the appointment at this time was reached when three applications were presented. They were from McPhee, F. S. Trickey and W. Hunter. The ballot of the supervisors showed McPhee four votes, Trickey one. McPhee will retain his position as city trustee, as holding the county office does not interfere with holding a city office at the same time. Encircled the Globe Rev. Arthur Schultz, wife and child, of Fullerton, have returned from a 50,000-mile trip. Mr. Schultz was a member of a quartette which sang its way around the world, the other members being J. Adams Oakes, Albion, Mich.; William E. Thomas, Tidioute, Pa.; Frank R. Evans, Portland, Me. Oakes and Thomas were also accompanied by their wives. The party left San Francisco a year ago, stopping first at Hawaii 16 days. The people of Honolulu, Hilo and other places on the islands gave the quartette a royal reception, the young men singing to crowded houses nearly every night. The party care to prosecute Macdonald further. It was a matter, however, in which Mrs. Hambleton had no control, and should she not be reached for another trial the testimony given by her and her daughter can be read to a jury. Deputy District Attorney Koepsel did not know until today that Mrs. Hambleton and the girl had left the state. Inquiry in the neighborhood brought forth little information further than that the family moved away about two weeks ago, supposedly to Colorado. It is said that the mother wanted to go some place where the case is not known. Koepsel is confident that the witnesses can be located and brought back here for the trial, in the event that a new trial is finally ordered. Should prosecution here finally fail, Macdonald will probably be taken to San Luis Obispo county for trial on a similar charge there, the district attorney of that county having sent word here that he would prosecute Macdonald if conviction was not secured here. Macdonald is now in San Quentin, where he was taken immediately after sentence. Maurice Ray Harry Ray RAY BROS. Hay, Grain and Poultry Supplies FULLERTON, CALIF. Sunset Phone 93 FOR QUICK RESULTS LIST YOUR PROPERTY WITH D. H. Mauerhan 621 Central Bldg., Los Angeles, Cal. Visiting Outfall sewer Four members of the Board of Supervisors of Orange county met with local business men here Thursday and after a thorough consideration of the problems involved declared themselves in favor of a coast boulevard from Bay City to Laguna Beach. The proposed road will cost $100,000. About one-fifth of that sum is available at present and it will be used in the construction of a bridge at Anaheim Landing. The land department of the Pacific Electric railroad was represented at the meeting and all difficulties relative to a clear right of way along the coast were removed. Work will be started within 30 days. Maternity Cottage at County Farm Mrs. Flora Pyle, Mrs. Lizzie Mills and other representatives of the Federated Women's Clubs of Orange county were successful in their mission when they visited the Board of Supervisors Thursday to petition for the location of a maternity cottage at the county farm for the use of county charges. The women urged that a cottage be set apart for maternity cases rather than those cases cared for in a ward of the new hospital. The supervisors stated that one of the half dozen cottages now on the farm is at the disposal of the women for any county maternity cases from now on. The women expect to have a supervising committee to look after the cottage and its patients. Will Contest in Court A contest is afoot over the control of the estate of Josephine B. Read, who died in Labanon, N. H., last April. A short time ago Mrs. Frances Read Kendick applied for letters, and at that time the will was filed by Attorney H. C. Head, who represents her. The estimated value of the property at Huntington Beach is $5,000. Today a counter petition was filed by Joseph Cummins, represented by Attorney J. E. Hannon of Los Angeles. Cummins bases his claim to control of the estate by reason of the fact that he is named as executor. The will was found in a bank in Huntington Beach, and was forwarded by Cummins to Attorney H. C. Head, but because of a mistake in the address the will did not reach the attorney in time to be filed within 30 days after the death of Mrs. Read. Left Santa Ana on Saturday Eighteen officers and non-commissioned officers of Company L will leave Santa Ana next Saturday afternoon for Santa Cruz to receive instruction in the military school to be conducted by the regular army there from July 6 to ber of a quartette which sang its way around the world, the other members being J. Adams Oakes, Albion, Mich.; William E. Thomas, Tidioute, Pa.; Frank R. Evans, Portland, Me. Oakes and Thomas were also accompanied by their wives. The party left San Francisco a year ago, stopping first at Hawaii 16 days. The people of Honolulu, Hilo and other places on the islands gave the quartette a royal reception, the young men singing to crowded houses nearly every night. The party then visited Japan, Korea, China, the Philippines, Singapore, Penang, Rangoon, and also traveled 6,000 miles by rail through India. Other places of interest visited were Egypt, Palestine, Damascus, Baalbek, Bayreuth, Smyrna, Turkey, Greece, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Holland, England and thence back to the United States. The entire trip covered a distance of over 50,000 miles. Mr. Schultz reports that the quartette made enough money on the trip to pay all of its expenses. In Tokio they sang under the direction of the Y. M. C. A. and appeared before the highly educated students, in their stocking feet, an old custom of that country. Rev. Schultz is only 29 years of age and he has been a resident of Fullerton 24 years. He will supply the Methodist pulpit in Fullerton during the next two months and this fall will accept a regular appointment with the Methodist Episcopal conference. At present this popular young preacher, accompanied by his wife and child, is stopping with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Schultz of Fullerton. M’DONALD WITNESSES DISAPPEAR MONDAY Helen Hambleton and Her Mother Gone Without Address The two principal witnesses in the R. C. Macdonald felony case have left the state. They are Mrs. Hambleton and her daughter, Miss Helen Hambleton, the girl whom Macdonald was charged with having wronged. They lived at 10:39 West Third street. About two weeks ago Mrs. Hambleton sold her property to Fred Franke, her furniture to Williams' store, and she and her family left the city. The report among the neighbors is that they went to Denver, Colo. The departure at this time with the knowledge that they doubtless possessed that Macdonald would likely be tried again, coupled with information that Mrs. Hambleton had expressed and was forwarded by Cummins to Attorney H. C. Head, but because of a mistake in the address the will did not reach the attorney in time to be filed within 30 days after the death of Mrs. Read. Left Santa Ana on Saturday Eighteen officers and non-commissioned officers of Company L will leave Santa Ana next Saturday afternoon for Santa Cruz to receive instruction in the military school to be conducted by the regular army there from July 6 to 16. The school will be for all commissioned and non-commissioned officers of the infantry and cavalry of the National Guards of California. Officers will be made into companies and drilled by regular army officers. Recitations in various branches of military matters will be conducted in the afternoon and evenings. Those who go from Company L of Santa Ana are: Capt. Ulm, First Lieut. McBride, Second Lieut. Towler, First Sergt. Knight, Sergts. Lighthall, Crawshaw, Frye and Walton, Corporals Garnett, Christensen, Davies, Reilly, Farwell and Kirkpatrick, Musicians Holderman and Manning, Cooks Stilwell and Beal. Capt. Ulm received for Company L the first army wagon ever in the possession of a military company in Santa Ana. The wagon is a big four-horse vehicle of the regular army type and will be on hand for emergency use. Should the company be ordered out to any place within marching distance the wagon will be on hand to carry camp equipment. McPhee Gets Fat Job George McPhee was on Thursday appointed sealer of weights and measures, an office created in each county by enactment of the last legislature. McPhee will resign his position as city editor of the Santa Ana Blade, which position he has held for 16 years, and will commence his duties in August when the measure passed by the legislature with having wronged. They lived at 1059 West Third street. About two weeks ago Mrs. Hambleton sold her property to Fred Franke, her furniture to Williams' store, and she and her family left the city. The report among the neighbors is that they went to Denver, Colo. The departure at this time with the knowledge that they doubtless possessed that Macdonald would likely be tried again, coupled with information that Mrs. Hambleton had expressed her intention not to testify against Macdonald again, calls for particular attention on the part of the district attorney's office. Macdonald was principal of the McKinley school, where the girl was a pupil. Mrs. Hambleton swore to a complaint charging Macdonald with a felony, the 14-year-old daughter of the complainant being named in the complaint. The first jury disagreed. The second trial resulted in Macdonald's conviction and his sentence to 25 years in San Quentin. In both trials the woman and her daughter were witnesses. An appeal was taken and the appellate court reversed the lower court. The district attorney's office has applied for a rehearing, this time in the supreme court, and there is a possibility that the highest court of the state may sustain the superior court of this county, thus defeating Macdonald in his effort to get a new trial. The reversal by the appellate court was upon a remark made by Judge West to Attorney Epsteen in which the judge spoke of the demeanor of the girl upon the stand as modest. The supreme court may decide that the appellate court erred in ordering a new trial. This phase of the situation was not known here, where it has been generally understood that a new trial would have to be had. About a month ago District Attorney West received information that Mrs. Hambleton had stated that she did not WHERE BIG RED APPLES GROW Yucaipa Valley Big returns are being made from Yucaipa Apple Lands. 3,000 acres of young trees are now flourishing here and hundreds of acres more will be planted at once.
