WEDDING BELLS WILL RING AT CARNIVAL DAN CUPID TO TAKE PROMINENT PART IN THE QUEEN'S FESTIVITIES ON OCTOBER 27 FIVE CANDIDATES ALREADY IN THE FIELD FOR QUEEN AND MORE WILL FOLLOW One of the new features added to the carnival attractions is a wedding—a genuine wedding where two hearts will be welded together for life and two souls will be merged into one. The committee having charge of the queen's ball engineered this scheme through, and those who go to see the coronation of the queen on Tuesday evening, will be treated to a second chapter of the entertainment without extra cost. The committee has been overturning every stone and searching for new inspiration and finally hit upon the plan of ringing Dan Cupid into the game. In addition to being made happy for life the young couple who...to be married on this festive occasion will receive as a present one of the most elegant bedroom suits to Shop; Weber's Book and Music Store; Heying Drug Store; Witman's Jewelry Store; Wallop and Champion; Graham Furniture Co.; Fred Marsh. The float representing the Anaheim Board of Trade which will be used in the carnival parade, is now under construction by chairman F. K. Greswell and his assistants. It promises to be one of exceptional beauty. Mr. Greswell is an artist and has figured out a wagon that is appropriate and suggestive as well as beautiful. It represents the development of this county from a desert to the garden spot of the world. Mr. Greswell is somewhat reticent in talking about it before it is completed, but his idea is excellent and his decorative eye will no doubt evolve something unique and beautiful. While this float will be in the parade it will not enter into competition for the prize which will be offered to the best float in the parade. Numerous lodges will be represented in the parade with floats. The various chambers of commerce and boards of trade of the county have been solicited to join in this display, and several have already notified the committee that they will be represented in the procession and will compete for the prize. Santa Ana will have a miniature court house entered by the board of trade of that city, and others will have floats suggestive of local matters.

Santa Ana will have a miniature court house entered by the board of trade of that city, and others will have floats suggestive of local matters. In addition to these twelve or fifteen Anahelm business firms are building fairy scenes on wheels, and several houses from other towns have already asked for space in the line. The big Orange county parade will take place on Friday, October 30. Some beautiful works of art are promised and it will be the most spectacular show ever seen in the county. Messrs Hamler and Barnes, a special committee on music, announced to the Board of Trade Monday night that they had engaged Anahelm band for four days of the festivities at a cost of $225. The band will be on duty four hours each day, and will also assist in making music for the queens' ball on the evening of Tuesday, the 27th. The carnival company is also accompanied by a band and it was decided to borrow this band and the Igorote aggregation from the company and parade in automobiles through the county on Monday preceding the carnival. A communication was received from the Ebell society offering assistance of that body in any manner in which could be made useful. Prof. Millikan, chairman of the poppy committee, announced that he had made little progress so far as this was not season for planting seed. In January, however, after the ground had been softened by rains, he would devote some time in directing the sowing of seed along highways and railroads and vacant places. One peck of seed would be sufficient to cover the territory belonging to this section. The plant sends its roots to a depth of 13 feet, consequently needs no irrigation, and is also perennial, therefore one planting is sufficient. The question of signs at the railway station and along the highways at the entrance to Anaheim was discussed and it was decided to increase the population on the railroad signs in order to conform to present facts, also to make name of Anaheim more prominent.

The queen's ball, following the coronation and the wedding will be the most brilliant affair ever held in Anaheim. The block on Claudina street, from Center to Broadway, will be enclosed in canvas and the throne erected within the enclosure. On this asphalt pavement the merry dancers will trip it until daylight doth appear. The admission to the enclosure, which carries with it the privilege of dancing is 50 cents for gentlemen and 25 cents for ladies. Seats will be provided for 200 guests.

WINDOWS BROKEN BY AUTO Fullerton Man Tries to Dodge Pedestrian and Runs Into Store On four different occasions within the past four years the S. Q. R. Store has suffered damage from runaway teams or unmanageable automobiles. Wednesday evening about 7 o'clock, a car belonging to the Sisson garage at Fullerton, driven by C. N. Laycock, ran out on the sidewalk and straddled the corner and broke a heavy plate glass on both the Center and Los Angeles street sides. The damage was estimated at $60. Laycock was turning from Center into Los Angeles street when a wildered pedestrian who was crossing Los Angeles street got in the way. To avoid running him down the driver turned his auto and dashed onto the sidewalk. The pedestrian was saved but the windows suffered. The automobile was only slightly damaged. Mr. Laycock came over from Fullerton the next day and paid the damages. W. F. Laird was in town the first of the week from McFarland.

While Mr. Nebelung's visit was a happy one as after an absence of nearly half a century he was again circulating among his relatives and boyfriend friends, it was also somewhat strenuous as most of the time he was surrounded by the "pomp and circumstance of glorious war." As early as July 25, said Mr. Nebelung, rumors of impending strife began to filter through from official to the government. He was too old to go to the front but they made him a guard and he is now a patrol guarding a railroad. Another cousin, a peaceful member of a high school faculty, was deserted by his young flock and asked to be taken into the official family. He was placed on the relief corps, not being eligible for the firing line, his duties being to look after families whose breadwinners are on the front rank. A nephew of Mr. Nebelung was judge of the highest court at Posen. He applied for admission to the army but being physically unfit for strenuous field duty was given a censorship and now scrutinizes the literature going in and out of Germany. The reports of the war emanating from England, France and Russia, according to Mr. Nebelung, are ridiculous, and colored for the purpose of deception. The right wing of the German army in Northern France, he says, was not driven back but retired to get in closer touch with its base of supplies. The left wing and the center of that great army are still forging ahead. The campaign through Belgium is part of the original plan to capture Antwerp, Ostend, Calais and Boulugne and not only envelop Paris but furnish a vantage ground for the ultimate attack on England. The reports of Russian victories are ridiculous, as it is well known in Europe that Russia has been defeated in every encounter with the Germans. Mr. Nebelung was in Berlin on the MUSICAL TREAT ENJOYED BY HUNDREDS LARGE AND APPRECIATIVE AUDIENCE GREETS THE CONCORDIA SOCIETY THURSDAY EVENING PROCEEDS FOR RELIEF OF SUFFERS FROM THE WAR IN GERMANY AND AUSTRIA-HUNGARY A rare musical treat was enjoyed by the large audience of German-American citizens who attended the Concordia entertainment at the opera house Thursday night. In addition to the music several excellent and appropriate addresses were made. The Concordia society is always worth hearing as it is composed of the best male musical talent. In town, but on this occasion the musicians, both vocal and instrumental, surpassed themselves. Besides a number of talented singers outside the club had been engaged and rendered some stirring songs. "Das Theuere Vaterhaus," was so well received by the public that it became a sensation in Germany. again rub elbows with his Anaheim friends. While Mr. Nebelung's visit was a happy one as after an absence of nearly half a century he was again circulating among his relatives and boyhood friends, it was also somewhat strenuous as most of the time he was surrounded by the "pomp and circumstance of glorious war." As early as July 25, said Mr. Nebelung, rumors of impending strife began to filter through from official sources and caused a ripple of excitement. Austria had declared war on Servia. Russia was mobilizing troops on the German frontier and refused to give the Berlin government a satisfactory reason therefore, and the tension was being drawn pretty tight, but it was not until the evening of July 31, that it snapped. Mr. Nebelung was at Hanover, stopping with Mr. and Mrs. Fred Hartung, former residents of Anaheim. They were dining at a cafe in the evening and suddenly, in the midst of a musical number, the band broke off and ceased playing. Then a voice announced that Germany had gone to war and an order for the mobilization of troops had been issued. "And then and there was hurrying to and fro." The steed, the mustering squadron and the clattering car, went pouring forward with impetuous speed, and swiftly forming in the ranks of war." Before morning broke all Germany was in action, and the next day found the nation under military rule. The railroads were in the hands of government officials, and all traffic was subordinated to the transportation of troops. All automobiles were requisitioned and subject to seizure in case they were needed by the army. The sale of gasoline was forbidden as it might be needed or military purposes. Peaceful Germany was transformed in a night into a warlike nation, and the civil authorities subordinated to the military. Mr. Nebelung left early the next morning for the home of his sister at Wittstock, near Berlin. He deemed it prudent to go while the going was good and before the roads became so congested with troops that it would be impossible for a civilian to travel. He was two hours late getting through which was the only inconvenience he suffered in consequence of the war. Provisions are plentiful. Everybody is well fed, and nobody in Germany is suffering except from anxiety over the fate of those on the firing line. The center of that great army are still foraging ahead. The campaign through Belgium is part of the original plan to capture Antwerp, Ostend, Calais and Boulogne and not only envelop Paris but furnish a vantage ground for the ultimate attack on England. The reports of Russian victories are ridiculous, as it is well known in Europe that Russia has been defeated in every encounter with the Germans. Mr. Nebelung was in Berlin on the anniversary of the battle of Sedan and saw too first captured cannon from the allied armies brought in. Some of them were stationed before the Kaiser's palace, some before the residence of the commander-in-chief of the army, and some ranged around the statue of Frederick the Great. Mr. Nebelung had his return passage engaged on the Kalser Wilhelm der Grosse, but this vessel was converted into an auxiliary cruiser and after a brief brilliant career was sunk by British warships. He went to Rotterdam and took passage on a Dutch vessel, leaving there on September 23. In the middle of the channel he could see the search lights on both the English and French coasts. At 2 o'clock in the morning they were held up by an English cruiser, and the ship thoroughly searched. Three hours later another English warship overhaulued them and after searching the vessel took off a young Englishman. At 8 o'clock they encountered a French warship and were again subjected to a rigid search, after which they were not molested. Mr. Nebelung arrived in New York on October 2, and after visiting relatives there for four days went to Chicago where he visited a day or two. CHRISTOPHERS MEET WITH A SURPRISE Entertained by Anaheim People on Their Arrival From Europe L. J. Christopher and wife were surprised when they came down from Los Angeles Sunday to visit their ranch, to find that a dinner had been prepared ahead of their arrival and that a number of friends were on hand to greet them. Mr. Christopher is owner of the Herbert Dyer ranch music several excellent and appropriate addresses were made. The Concordia society is always worth hearing as it is composed of the best male musical talen. In town, but on this occasion the musicians, both vocal and instrumental, surpassed themselves. Besides a number of talented singers outside the club had been engaged and rendered some stirring songs. "Das Theuere Vaterhaus," was so well rendered by Mrs. George H. Moenius that she was forced to return, and sang in response to the encore, "The Heart Bowed Down," a selection from the "Bohemian Girl." Joseph Bischof of Los Angeles, a noted singer of the Angel city, also sang a solo which was loudly applauded, and Miss Margaret Goetz, also of Los Angeles, was compelled to respond twice to an encore. Miss Goetz is well known throughout the southland for her musical talent. Carl Halm of Los Angeles, spoke at some length in German, saying that while he was a naturalized American citizen, his sympathies were with the German nation in the present great conflict. He referred to the claim of the enemies of the Fatherland that they "would wipe Germany off the map", and denounced the unfair attitude of a Los Angeles newspaper which seems to be animated by a feeling of animosity toward the German people. Germany asks nothing he said, but fair treatment at the hands of American newspapers. He spoke with deep emotion, and was frequently interrupted with loud bursts of applause. Dr. E. W. Hauck, principal of the high school, spoke in English upon neutrality. He met with a loud burst of applause at the beginning of his address when he said the Los Angeles paper referred to by Mr. Halm was not the American nation. He handled his subject most creditably, saying the United States was made up of people who had relatives in the armies of the contending forces, and he hoped that everyone would be mindful of the obligation placed upon them of being a good American citizen here in his adopted country. He deplored the conflict and expressed the hope that the blessings of peace would soon come to the warring nations in Europe. Emil Lesses of Los Angeles, a veteran of the Franco-Prussian war in 1870, spoke in English upon the causes and progress of the war. He declared the Kalser did not want war.

He was two hours late getting through which was the only inconvenience he suffered in consequence of the war. Provisions are plentiful. Everybody is well fed, and nobody in Germany is suffering except from anxiety over the fate of those on the firing line. The report published in this country that all liquor houses had been closed by order of the Kaiser is ridiculous, he declared. Not a single one had been closed or curtailed, he said. Dealers in food products began raising the price of their wares after the declaration of war, but the ubiquitous government immediately stepped in and declared it would confiscate the stock and subject the owner to a heavy fine if the normal price was not maintained. Germany was crowded with tourists from America and other countries when the war broke out and all were anxious to get home. In addition to this untold thousands of Germans were taking their vacations and and it was necessary for them to reach their homes at once as most of them were subject to military duty. Moreover, one-third of the railroad employees were soldiers and were required to report and go to the front immediately. In the face of all this the congested traffic was handled and not a single railway accident occurred in all Germany. Mr. Nebelung has three relatives in the service, all serving without pay, and their enlistment demonstrates the patriotism of the German people. One cousin is a professor in the great university at Kiel. Finding his occupation gone by reason of his pupils all going to war he offered his services L. J. Christopher and wife were surprised when they came down from Los Angeles Sunday to visit their ranch, to find that a dinner had been prepared ahead of their arrival and that a number of friends were on hand to greet them. Mr. Christopher is owner of the Herbert Dyer ranch northeast of town, having purchased it some months ago, and Stephen Kistler, an old-time friend, is managing it for him. Mr. and Mrs. Kistler arranged the surprise and had as guests besides their own family, Misses Marle and Sophie Roos of Los Angeles, and Mr. and Mrs. Foy of the Springs. Mr. and Mrs. Christopher arrived two weeks ago from Europe. They were caught by the sudden declaration of war in Germany and were delayed some weeks in getting out of that country. On the homeward voyage from Rotterdam on the liner Potsdam, they were held up by a German cruiser and the vessel searched for Germans eligible to military duty. A number were taken off and returned, and the officers of the vessel 11-tioned to run only in daytime. They arrived in port a week late. ST. MICHAEL'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH Services, Sunday, October 18, the 19th Sunday after Trinity, at St. Michael's Episcopal church corner Emily and Adele streets; Rev. David Todd Gillimor rector, will be: 8:00 a.m. Holy Communion, 9:45 a.m. Bible school and adult classes; 11:00 a.m. morning prayer, Litany, and sermon; 7:30 p.m. evening prayer and address. A cordial welcome to all. Emil Lesses of Los Angeles, a veteran of the Franco-Prussian war in 1870, spoke in English upon the causes and progress of the war. He declared the Kaiser did not want war, and showed that several times during the last 25 years the Kaiser had stood for peace even though he maintained the most superb fighting machine in Europe. This was notably so in the Morocco incident when the Kaiser's army was ready for war, but he persisted in preserving the peace. The Kaiser did not want war at the present moment, but when Russia was engaged in mobilizing her great army, and was threatening Germany's eastern border, he laid the matter before the Reichstag saying he knew political differences, but regarded members of all factions as Germans. There are 30 Socialist members of the Reichstag, everyone of whom voted for war. The Socialist members of this body had always seen for peace, and in the war with France in 1879 the three members of the body voted against war. The Reichstag voted unanimously for war in August, because they regarded Russia's actions as threatening the invasion of their country. Referring to the Louvain incident, he said that German soldiers had been cruelly mutilated b. Belgians in that city, and that a number of German officers and men had been seized before the entry of the German troops, their eyes gouged out, their tongues cut out, and their noses, ears and fingers sliced from their bodies. Rifles were passed among civilians, and German troops ZETTE MAR 15, 1914 NUMBER 3 REAL TREAT REACHED BY HUNDREDS APPRECIATIVE AUDIENCES THE CONCORDE THURSDAY EVENING MR RELIEF OF SUFFOLK THE WAR IN GERMAN AND AUSTRIA-ENGARY treat was enjoyed by face of German-Americans attended the Concorde at the opera house In addition to the excellent and appropriated made.

Because of these inhuman atrocities, the town was destroyed, but all works of art were carried to a place of safety and preserved. He was confident that ultimate victory would come to the Fatherland, and declared that Germany asked nothing of the United States except fairness and a square deal. Speaking of atrocities alleged to have been committed by German troops, he read communications from Americans and American newspaper correspondents declaring these stories were mere fabrications. Mr. Dickel sang "Deutschland, Deutschland, ueber Alles" amid great applause. Mr. Dickel was late in entering the hall, having returned from Los Angeles at 9 o'clock. He went to that city in the evening to bid goodbye to his son and family who were leaving for Montana. At announcement of his song the audience broke into a wild burst of cheering. He sang in excellent voice and in response to an encore sang "Prayer During the Battle." Following is the complete program rendered by the society: Overture ...

These men are all reservists—men who have served their allotted time in the army, but are on the reservist list, subject to the call to duty until they reach the age of 45 years, which is the exemption limit.

The object of the concert was to raise funds for the Red Cross and other relief societies or committees in Germany and Austria-Hungary. A goodly sum was secured, many persons who failed to attend having purchased tickets. For this same purpose $400 has already been raised in Anaheim and sent across the water, and this additional sum will be welcomed by the sufferers in the war-ridden lands. NEW AUTO STAGE TO LOS ANGELES Big Machine to Make Regular Trips Between This City and the Hub A new enterprise that promises to be a great convenience to the people of Anaheim has just been established. It is the Interurban Auto Line and the stage will run daily between this city and Los Angeles. H. A. Sweet is the owner and manager of the line. He brought his big car in Monday on the initial trip and made arrangements for the regular runs hereafter. The big machine carries 32 passengers without crowding and could accommodate more in case of necessity. It will leave the corner of Center and Los Angeles every morning at 8:35, and will make the trip through its litter. should hold themselves in readiness to return and join the ranks of the millions now fighting for the Fatherland. These men are all reservists—men who have served their allotted time in the army, but are on the reservoir list, subject to the call to duty until they reach the age of 45 years, which is the exemption limit. Without exception these reservists have reported to the German consul at Los Angeles and declared their willingness to join their brethren on the firing line. The consul, however, notified every one of them that his services were not needed just now, and besides it would be difficult for a German soldier to make his way across the ocean and reach German soil at the present time owing to all ports of entry being blockaded, and scout ships scrutinizing the passenger list and the cargoes of all vessels plying between American and European ports. "Nevertheless," said the consul, "If Germany needs you she will find a way of transporting you across the seas and enabling you to join your old commands, therefore hold yourself in readiness to start in case of imperative call. You need not worry about the cost of the trip as passage will be provided for you." Richard Fischle, of the Mission candy store, was one of the reservists who received the military pass. Mr. Fischle is a citizen of the United States, having received his naturalization papers two years ago, but he had neglected to notify the government at Berlin that he had transferred his allegiance to Uncle Sam. When he received the pass, therefore, he immediately went up to Los Angeles and laid the matter before the consul, who advised him to at once forward proofs of his new citizenship to Berlin and his name would be expunged from the reserve list. In point of age Mr. Fischle has still ten years to run before he is exempt from military duty, but his naturalization papers wiped him from the rolls. Mr. Fischle's old home was at Stuttgart, Wurtemberg. From there he went into the army and served his time. He was in the 125th infantry—Emperor Frederick's regiment and at the close of his term of enlistment was placed on the reservoir list where he was supposed to remain until the age of 45, no matter where he might reside, unless in the meantime he savered his allegiance to Kaiser stage will run daily between this city and Los Angeles. H. A. Sweet is the owner and manager of the line. He brought his big car in Monday on the initial trip and made arrangements for the regular runs hereafter. The big machine carries 32 passengers without crowding and could accommodate more in case of necessity. It will leave the corner of Center and Los Angeles every morning at 8:35, and will make the trip through in little more than an hour. Returning it will leave its station in Los Angeles at 4 p.m., and will land its Anaheim passengers at home in ample time for a 6 o'clock dinner. Fare for the round trip will be $1.00. Orange is the terminus of the line, and the stage will also pick up passengers at Fulelron and Whittler. This stage promises to be popular as it lands its passengers in Los Angeles at a convenient time in the morning and returns them at a reasonable hour. The fair, also, is lower than the railroad rate. The faculty of the Anaheim Union High School will not allow any more joy rides among the students when they attend social features of the school. This announcement was made at a meeting of the student body, and if the students do not observe the new rule they will be barred from attending any of the affairs of the institution. The teachers stated that their students must remain in the school building until the close of the program or any meeting of the school and then return to their homes. This new move was applauded by many, while others stated that the "high school is not a kindergarten." Herman Hussman is in San Francisco for a week's sight seeing expedition. Mr. Fischle's old home was at Stuttgart, Wurtemberg. From there he went into the army and served his time. He was in the 125th infantry—Emperor Frederick's regiment and at the close of his term of enlistment was placed on the reservist list where he was supposed to remain until the age of 45, no matter where he might reside, unless in the meantime he severed his allegiance to the Kaiser. While the German government has no power to force reservists residing in foreign lands to return to military duty it has a very effective way of inducing them to obey the call. They not only are subject to arrest and severe punishment in case they ever again set foot on the soil of the Fatherland, but forfeit all rights to inheritance. However the young men who are besieging the agency at Los Angeles are animated by patriotism and love of country and not actuated by fear of consequences in case of failure to respond. "Although I am an American citizen," said Mr. Fischle, "if it were not for the fact that I have a family to support I would gladly go back and take my chances with the boys in my old regiment. It would be a pleasure to fight for the colors under which I once served." Mr. Fischle says that while discipline in the Germany army is rigid and the soldier's life is not exactly a bed of roses, yet the men are well fed, well clothed, well treated and no one has real cause for complaint. Mr. Fischle came to Anaheim direct from Stuttgart in 1903. Henry Adams has returned from a business visit at Imperial, traveling in his auto with Crockett Bowers and other Santa Ana gentlemen.
