ANAHEIM DAY AT SAN DIEGO FAIR MAY 12 SPECIAL TRAIN WILL CARRY HUNDREDS OF BOOSTERS TO THE FAIR ON THAT DATE MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEES OF BOARD OF TRADE WILL START CAMPAIGN NEXT TUESDAY Wednesday, May 12, will be Anaheim day at the San Diego Exposition. That is the date agreed upon at the meeting of the board of trade Monday night. The Santa Fe railroad company had previously notified the board that a special train could be provided at any time, and G. A. Davidson, president of the exposition, recently wrote Secretary Dutton to the effect that the authorities were prepared to entertain the Anaheimers on a date fixed by the board provided he was notified in advance. It will be known as Anaheim day and representatives and guides will be delegated to take charge of the visitors and show them all the sights worth seeing. A committee of five has been appointed to sell tickets and drum up a crowd. Tickets will be sold in advance to persons who expect to take in the excursion the same to be taken in exchange for a railway ticket later. It is expected and hoped that a delegation of 300 Anaheim boosters will enter from the Edison company cheaper than it could manufacture it. It was stated in the discussion that it cost the city four cents per kilowat for fuel alone in manufacturing electricity, and the Edison company would sell it below that figure. It is understood some of the city trustees are desirous of investigating the matter. A committee, consisting of J. W. Duckworth, H. M. Adams and Charles Eygabroad was appointed to confer with the Edison people and get a statement of their charges. PURCHASE NOT LEGAL SAY ORANGE TRUSTEES Refuse to Pay for a Monarch Steam Roller Purchased by Old Board The defense put forward by the city of Orange in the action brought against it by George A. Rogers for $2000, alleged to be due for a Monarch steam roller, is that the purchase contract made by a majority of the city trustees of Orange was not legal, and that therefore the city never owned the roller and does not now owe one cent for it. The answer was filed by Attorneys Hartwick and Garret and H. C. Head for the city of Orange. It appears that on December 8, 1913, a majority of the Orange City Board authorized the signing of a contract whereby Rogers was to be paid $3800 for the roller. On January 6, 1914, there was paid $1800 and $2000 was left to become due a year later. Last April Orange elected new trustees. The new trustees do not want the roller, and when the time came to make sure $2000 payment they refused to pay. Rogers sued. It is declared in the answer that the majority of the board acted with regular meetings directors of the Analeim company was listed 6, and the following transactions: The report of thetee was read andrants ordered drawnthe various demandsmended.

A number of proHighland avenues present and requi known as Anaheim day and representatives and guides will be delegated to take charge of the visitors and show them all the sights worth seeing. A committee of five has been appointed to sell tickets and drum up a crowd. Tickets will be sold in advance to persons who expect to take in the excursion the same to be taken in exchange for a railway ticket later. It is expected and hoped that a delegation of 300 Anaheim boosters will invade San Diego on that date. An animated discussion was raised on the subject of stop-overs on Santa Fe trains between Los Angeles and San Diego. It was announced two weeks ago that San Juan Capistrano was the only point in Orlando county at which stop-over privileges were allowed, but J. H. Clabaugh was present Monday night with a document signed by J. J. Byrne, announcing that 90-day tickets were being sold between Los Angeles and San Diego, and they were good for stop-overs at all stations on the tariff sheet up to the date of expiration. The two committees appointed to boost the membership of the board of trade, will buckle down to business on Tuesday next. This is to be posted on the books as a red letter day, and the red color will be retained for all following days up to Saturday, May 1, when the committees will meet jointly, compare notes and count noses. The dues of the new members will be payable on or before that date, and those who are delinquent at that time will not be counted to the credit of the committee securing them. The party losing in the contest will provide a feast for the forty members of the two committees. An effort will be made to add several hundred names to the roll. A communication from Swift & Company, the meat packers, was read by the secretary. That house wants statistical information about Anaheim, its population, the population of its immediate surroundings and other information. The Oakland chamber of commerce also sent a communication stating that two beautiful Anaheim pictures, one being a panoramic view of the town, the other a picture of the high school had been presented that body by Mr. Gresswell and were hung in a conspicuous place. The Inland Waterways association will have a meeting at San Francisco on March 20, and asked that a reprenentior of the Orange City Board authorized the signing of a contract whereby Rogers was to be paid $3800 for the roller. On January 6, 1914, there was paid $1800 and $2000 was left to become due a year later. Last April Orange elected new trustees. The new trustees do not want the roller, and when the time came to make tue $2000 payment they refused to pay. Rogers sued. It is declared in the answer that the majority of the board acted without authority of law, and in violation of law, and that the contract is illegal and unlawful. It is declared that the purchase was made without the consent of two thirds of the people voting bonds or a special tax, and since there was no such vote the purchase could not be made without bids being advertised for. It is declared that there were no bids taken. The city's answer states that it does not claim possession of the roller. SUCCULENT OYSTERS "Bob" Mills was in town from Seal Beach on Monday regaling his friends with a sample of fresh oysters which he brought up from his oyster beds at Seal Beach. The shell fish have a delicious flavor and are pronounced by Los Angeles dealers to be the equal of any oysters on the market. They are of a small variety and thrive in a prolific state in the waters contiguous to Mr. Mills' sea coast residence near the old Anaheim Land site. In the preparation of the oyster cocktail the bivalves are considered the best and many of the city cafes are using them and the demand is on the increase. Mr. Mills intends to put up the oysters in small glass jars with some of the necessary ingredients for the seductive cocktail and place them on the market. He now has many standing orders in Los Angeles and will in the near future embark in the business on a large scale. For a cocktail take 8 of the oysters, some tomato catsup, a dash of tobacco, with a little Riesling and you have a concoction really delicious. WILLIAMS GETS SIX MONTHS George (Coyote) Williams, who was arrested by Anaheim officers some weeks ago was sentenced to serve six months in the county jail, Monday. The judge in passing sentence on the The Oakland chamber of commerce also sent a communication stating that two beautiful Anaheim pictures, one being a panoramic view of the town, the other a picture of the high school had been presented that body by Mr. Gresswell and were hung in a conspicuous place. The Inland Waterways association will have a meeting at San Francisco on March 20, and asked that a representative be in attendance. The California state waterways association will also hold a session in San Francisco shortly according to a letter received from Ed M. Hamlin, state mineralogist. It is not probable that anyone will attend these meetings from the board of trade. The advertising committee announced that the new booklets were in the hands of the printer and would be ready for distribution at an early date. The beautiful silver cut to be awarded the Orange county high school athlete who makes the best score in the track meet Saturday has arrived and is ready for the contest. Judge Howard called attention to the fact that while Anaheim had contributed liberally toward the aid of suffering Belgium there were people in our own neighborhood needing assistance. He cited two families, both living out of town, that were in actual want and were subsisting on the charity of neighbors. A collection was taken up for their relief and all present pledged to contribute provisions and clothing. All who care to give anything in the way of food, money or clothing can leave it at the office of Judge Howard who will see that it reaches the proper place. The old committee on charity, consisting of Judge Howard, Prof. Hauck, H. M. Adams and S. W. Todd, was reappointed by Chairman Krause. The cost of municipal juice was another question that created considerable discussion. It was introduced by J. W. Duckworth who stated that he understood the city could buy power. For a cocktail take 8 of the oysters, some tomato cataup, a dash of tobacco, with a little Riesling and you have a concoction really delicious. WILLIAMS GETS SIX MONTHS George (Coyote) Williams, who was arrested by Anaheim officers some weeks ago was sentenced to serve six months in the county jail, Monday. The judge in passing sentence on the man took occasion to say that he was at a loss how the jury arrived at the conclusion that Williams was guilty of petty larceny when he was surely guilty of a graver degree of crime, if guilty at all. He told Williams that he could sentence him to pay a fine of $500 in addition to the six months' time, but on account of his family, he would refrain from adding that feature to the sentence of the man. Williams looked as pleased as could be to think he had gotten off as lucky as he did, and Wallace W. Davis, his attorney, seemed to be as pleased at the outcome of the case as was Williams. BIRTHDAY A birthday party was given by Mr. and Mrs. Wm Lake, on Sunday evening, at their residence on North Char-tress street, the occasion being the former's birthday. A very pleasant time was spent, and during the evening a splendid repast was enjoyed. Various games served to pass the evening pleasantly and at a late hour the guests departed, all wishing Mr. Lake many happy returns of the day. Among those present besides the host and hostess were Mr. and Mrs. Vie La Mont, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Mauer, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Pendleton, Mr. and Mrs. Chas.

A Jap living west of town had ridden the bike into town and stopped at the Japanese pool room on Los Angeles street, leaving the wheel outside against the north wall. Carlson espied the bicycle and recognized it. The wheel is a new one and the number had not been changed, so identification was easy. The Jap claimed he bought the wheel from a stranger, paying him $5. Carlson recovers his wheel, the Jap is out $5, and officers are trying to locate the thief. ST.

The Fullerton Great West Oil company have put their well No.2 on the pump and it is making about 125 barrels per day of 18 gravity oilThis well was somewhat of a disappointment to the company.as it showed up quite strongly just before completion.No.1 should also be on production in a week or ten days. The Placentia Oil company are preparing to bring in their well from a depth of 3580 feet.Their success will be watched with interest as they drilled through the first oil sand from which other wells in that vicinity are producing and went down to a second sand 400 to 500 feet deeperThis well is the deepest yet drilled east of the Amalgamated holdings in the Brea field.

NOT ALTOGETHER* POPULAR The new order of the comptroller of the currency against overdrafts is not altogether popular in banking circles. Undoubtedly the practice has been carried too far in some instances; but, on the other hand, it is a form of accommodation that, under proper safeguards, is a decided advantage to the depositor who is accustomed to making quick turns. The Wall Street Journal voices some of the objections to the comptroller's orders in the following editorial: "It did not need the notification of the comptroller of the currency for bankers to know that overdrafts are wrong. It has been so recognized for years, and, except in certain sections of the country, has been discouraged as much as possible. Under certain conditions, however, the practice has been regarded as a necessary evil and something that is, more often than not, the result of specific causes. It is perfectly right that the comptroller of the currency should impress upon the national banks the desirability of curtailing the practice as much as possible; but it is scarcely fair to impose an implicit prohibition upon all banks and to demand from them a directors' resolution to the effect that the practice will never be resorted to. "As pointed out by one banker, to refuse an overdraft sometimes might work irreparable injury upon a customer, either an individual or a bank, when, from some unforeseen reason, the funds to meet the draft were delayed. Granting an overdraft is the same thing as a temporary loan to a customer, the bank would not grant the overdraft if it were not perfectly satisfied with the standing of the customer; in which case the transaction is not made any safer if the loan were secured by a note." Ed Staats and wife left Monday for Braunfels, Texas, where they expect to reside. Ed was for years a clerk in Nagel's hardware store.
