CONEY ISLAND FOR ORANGE COUNTY SEAL BEACH TO BE MADE GREATEST RESORT ON THE PACIFIC COAST MORE THAN ONE MILLION DOLLARS WILL BE SPENT IN FITTING IT UP The finest amusement park and beach resort on the Pacific Coast and one of the most elaborate in America will be thrown open on May first, when Seal Beach, on the western seashore of Orange county, four miles south of Long Beach and on direct car line from Los Angeles, stages its opening carnival on that date. Under the management of Frank Burt, director of concessions and admissions at the Panama-Pacific International Exposition, the new resort will assuredly become the Coney Island of the Pacific coast. Over a million dollars will be spent to make it the most up-to-date and beautiful place in the West. Frank Burt, who was sent to the Exposition from Lakeside Park, Denver, proved a veritable mine to the big fair and it was under his personal direction and supervision that the Zone at the exposition proved a pronounced success. He also inaugurated a gate and ticket system which is said to be the most complete and satisfactory one ever used by a world’s fair. With the closing day of the exposiEast where the short period of four months constitutes the yearly season, Seal Beach is to be an all year round resort. There will be big special feature attractions such as aviators, spectacular productions, huge fireworks displays, etc, every week in the year. Mr. Burt’s strongest drawing card is Long Beach, direct car line and the bathing facilities. An ideal surf, the only one on the Pacific Coast, with absolutely no undertow and with a sand flooring as smooth and level as a ball room is certain to attract thousands of bathers who have been content to swim in enclosed tanks rather than face the dangers of an ocean under current. A convenient street car schedule on direct lines from Orange, Santa Ana, and Los Angeles has solved the transportation problem of the new resort, and when the “Jewel City” of the Coast, as it is to be known, opens its gates on May first, Orange county will have an amusement park and beach resort bigger than anything hitherto attempted in the West, and equal to the finest on the Atlantic seaboard, and under the direction of a man who knows how to hold the public’s attention from sun to sun. SHORT WEIGHT DEALERS CALLED TO ACCOUNT Los Angeles Merchants Forced to Make Good by George McPhee County Sealer of Weights and Measures George McPhee had the first round up of the season Wednesday with Los Angeles produce peddlers when he took to task three men who short counted J. N. Crawford a Santa Ana dealer in fruits and vegetables, and refused to make good when Crawford demanded the return of the money he claimed was fraudulently taken at 180 eggs per hen per considerably above the production of commercial fish more hens. The present be raised towards this leaping from naturally strong after year, that lay well colored, good sized (2 or shelled eggs; that have abundant vigor, and by well grown, sturdy naturally prolific mother). Circular No. 142, just Agricultural Experimenter the State University, gives information relative structure of trapnests and pliances for the poultry tributed free. SOUTHERN COUNTIES TO HEAR Arrangements Being Made To Work Work—real labor—is to be used by Southern Counties this winter as a protector hobo. Since the plan detention camp at the take in every undesirable tourist who comes alone by reason of the finding torney Evans of Riverside county it was proposed to camp, that arrests could until some offence is caused counties are now proceed means, each county to work. Friday District Attorneys attended a conference torneys and the supervisors county. County C Los Angeles atended the Los Angeles proposes rockpile near Saugus, which will be furnished undesired. Frank Burt, who was sent to the Exposition from Lakeside Park, Denver, proved a veritable mine to the big fair and it was under his personal direction and supervision that the Zone at the exposition proved a pronounced success. He also inaugurated a gate and ticket system which is said to be the most complete and satisfactory one ever used by a world's fair. With the closing day of the exposition but a few weeks off Burt has been flooded with offers to take charge of various amusement enterprises, but not until he was approached with the proposition to build and manage Seal Beach did he finally accept. Mr. Burt needs no introduction to theatrical and amusement kings throughout the country. He has probably supervised the building and opening of more amusement parks than any individual in America. At the exposition through his keenness, good showmanship and diplomacy he soon became the central figure in the workings of the great fair. Ever on the lookout for the best interests of both the concessionaries and the exposition officials he has managed to maintain a harmonious state of affairs in his division throughout the entire exposition and he stands out as the most useful and best loved man at the big world’s fair. The result of this has been that many of the big concessionaries on the Zone have planned to follow him to Seal Beach thus giving that new resort an exposition tinge from the start. The great battery of scintillators now located on the water front of the exposition have been purchased by Mr. Burt and will be placed on the water end of a great pier which runs a considerable distance into the ocean at Seal Beach. The great battery of searchlights proved one of the most spectacular lighting effects at the exposition and it is certain that when their beams are thrown into the skies at Seal Beach, the illumination, which through the use of colored slides develops a rainbow effect of startling brilliance will be visible from a distance of at least fifty miles. Many of the classic fountains and ornamental light standards which lent so much beauty and charm to the great courts and passages between the Palaces at the exposition will be transported to Seal Beach, giving it features never seen at any other amusement park in the country. Los Angeles Merchants Forced to Make Good by George McPhee County Sealer of Weights and Measures George McPhee had the first round up of the season Wednesday with Los Angeles produce peddlers when he took to task three men who short counted J. N. Crawford a Santa Ana dealer in fruits and vegetables, and refused to make good when Crawford demanded the return of the money he claimed was fraudulently taken from him. Then Crawford called in McPhee and the latter gently but firmly laid down the law in such cases made and provided, with the result that the Los Angeles men turned over to Crawford the sum he claimed and the incident was closed. Crawford claimed that the Los Angeles dealers sold him a crate of cauliflower with the assurance that it contained a certain number of heads, when in reality it was six or seven heads short of the number guaranteed, and that a crate of celery bought by him from the same parties was also short of the guaranteed count. The amount in dispute was comparatively small, but it was about all of Crawford's profit and aside from that Crawford strenuously objected to being film-flammed in such bare-faced manner. McPhee said it was a very plain case and had it been prosecuted a conviction would have surely resulted, but he believes in giving first offenders every chance and that in most cases ignorance of the law is responsible for the trouble they get into. There are some produce dealers who bring stuff to Orange county on trucks from Los Angeles who take chances and have gotten by in many instances in the past, but McPhee says these individuals will be closely watched in future and will be dealt with literally as the law directs, as no excuses will pass current from this time forward in their cases.

The arrangement of the buildings at Seal Beach will be such as to emphasize their architectural harmony and beauty. The plan is one new in the building of an amusement park, and follows as a result of the impetus given to architecture in its highest decorative form at the great San Francisco exposition. Heretofore in amusement parks, but little attention has been paid to architectural harmony, especially in the erection of concessionaries' buildings and buildings for various shows and amusements. Mr. Burt is personally supervising all of the plans for Seal Beach so that the buildings will be constructed in harmony; and Mr. Edwin Simms, the architect who laid a large portion of the exposition grounds, and did splendid work in the planning of its palaces, is co-operating with Mr. Burt so that there may be no irregularity in the architectural lines of Seal Beach, and no crowding together of unsightly buildings. Four thousand feet of ocean frontage has been reserved for concessions at the new amusement park and already some of this space has been engaged for attractions now open on the Zone of the exposition! There will be a racing coaster of the latest type, other riding devices, an aeroscope and the biggest kind of shows will prevail giving Seal Beach one of the most complete joy thoroughfares in the country.

In order to know accurately just how many eggs a hen produces; in order to know which are the boarders and which are the profitable fowls, trapnests must be used. The purpose of a trapnest is not to increase the egg production of the present layers but to find out just how well the best of the present flock are laying, in order that the good layers may be identified and mated to males out of good layers, for use as breeding stock to reproduce offspring with better laying qualities than the average of the present flock. Trapnest the breeders for they are going to produce the future layers, but do not force them for egg production. The hen that naturally produces better than her sisters is more prolific and will make the best breeder. The ideal average egg production may be fixed. Jennings and Schoenin in Los Angeles a month had a friend named who told them how easy bad checks. Jennings cided to try it. They Ana as the place for decided upon Anaheim a room at the Nebelie and posed as a contrass passed the checks, and was raised he had the rooming house, whaand get assurance that good. The plan worked on but failed on another, that the two men were. "This is the third owl which the sum of $13.50 bogus check," said Jennings said that the rewas that it figured on wages at $2.25 a day. He had been a miner life. The men succeeded checks for $13.50 each Lautenback and one Leslie. Leslie became cashing the check and fears to Phil Germann lie went down to the ments and arrested "Schneider" as he called Jennings escaped and a chase. He was capt Kellenberger in the company's yard. at 180 eggs per hen per year, which is considerably above the average production of commercial flocks of 500 or more hens. The present average may be raised towards this ideal by breeding from naturally strong layers, year after year, that lay well shaped, nicely colored, good sized (2 ounces) strong shelled eggs; that have good type and abundant vigor, and by mating them to well grown, sturdy males out of naturally prolific mothers. Circular No. 142, just issued by the Agricultural Experiment station of the State University, gives some valuable information relative to the construction of trapnests and other appliances for the poultryman. It is distributed free. SOUTHERN COUNTIES PLAN TO HEAD OFF HOBO Arrangements Being Made to Put Him To Work Work—real labor—is the weapon to be used by Southern California counties this winter as a protection against the hobo. Since the plan to establish a detention camp at the state line and take in every undesirable brakebeam tourist who comes along fell through by reason of the finding of District Attorney Evans of Riverside, in which county it was proposed to establish the camp, that arrests could not be made until some offence is committed, the counties are now proceeding to devise means, each county to make the hobo work. Friday District Attorney L. A. West attended a conference of district attorneys and the supervisors of Los Angeles county. County Counsel Hill of Los Angeles attended the meeting. Los Angeles proposes to establish a rockpile near Saugus, and hard labor will be furnished undesirables. Other AUTOMOBILE PARADE THANKSGIVING DAY 500 Machines Will Pass Through In Procession En Route for San Diego With the hope of having 500 automobiles in line, officials of the Automobile Club of Southern California and the Panama California exposition are preparing final plans for the big Thanksgiving Day highway and exposition celebration November 25. Motor car dealers throughout Southern California have been asked to cooperate by sending a notice of the tour to each individual owner, and many of the most prominent have already signified their intention of having large representations present when the lead cars pull away from the Auto club headquarters at 9 o'clock Thursday morning. Highway supervisors representing the Southern California counties will occupy several of the first cars in line. Invitations have been mailed from the club headquarters with notices of the various events which will mark the tour. Arrangements are being made to have each feature filmed in the movies, and all motorists taking part in the run will be formed in line at a point between Del Mar and the Torrey Pines grade. The camera will be located in the hills among the old pines and will catch the trekkers as they ascend the new paved grade. Other pictures will be made at San Juan Capistrano, where the automobiles will halt for a moment in the shadows of the old mission. From there the combined San Diego and Los Angeles groups will move south to be filmed again as they reach the ocean. At the exposition a huge panorama will be made from the tower, of the Friday District Attorney L. A. West attended a conference of district attorneys and the supervisors of Los Angeles county. County Counsel Hill of Los Angeles attended the meeting. Los Angeles proposes to establish a rockpile near Saugus, and hard labor will be furnished undesirables. Other conferences are to be held by officials of the southern counties, looking to the administration of the labor cure. Orange county has devised plans for making prisoners work. It has a road camp near Arch Beach, in which 35 prisoners can be detained and where they have been made to more than earn their keep. Recently another crew was organized. Its first work was the removal of a lot of stumps on a highway at Placentia. When that work is done the prisoners will be used in building a new road over the El Modena hill. However, hobo labor in this county is scarce just now. The warnings sent forth that hoboes will have to work seems to have had the effect already. Nearly all of the prisoners are men who are serving terms in jail for various misdemeanors, not vagrancy. Deputy Sheriff Murray did not have enough prisoners to work for several days last week. BAD CHECK ARTISTS GET THREE YEARS EACH Jennings and Schoen, who Worked a Get-Rich-Quick Game, Go to San Quentin Frank Jennings and Henry Schoen, the two check forgers who gave Officers Kellenberger and Germann such a merry chase three weeks ago, were each sentenced to three years at San Quentin in superior court Friday. When arraigned Jennings and Sheoen frankly admitted their guilt and told of the circumstances that led up to their passing of a $13.50 bogus check upon William Leslie of this city. Judge West pointed out that they could hardly do anything else than make the admissions. Deputy District Attorney Kopesel said that the evidence showed that the scheme was a keen outline for getting money, and he could not see that the two men were entitled to a jail sentence, for which Attorney W. W. Davis had put in a plea. Other pictures will be made at San Juan Capistrano, where the automobilists will halt for a moment in the shadows of the old mission. From there the combined San Diego and Los Angeles groups will move south to be filmed again as they reach the ocean. At the exposition a huge panorama will be made from the tower, of the cars as they come across the Puente Cabrillo and again as they park in the Plaza de Panama on Automobile day. Deserted tables at home will testify on Thanksgiving Day that everybody who owns an automobile has decided to celebrate the opening of the paved state highway. Motorists will be surprised to find that several changes have been made in the route along the coast, the road now parallelizing the ocean where formerly it penetrated the hills. Movie stars representing the studios located in Southern California are planning to make the trip. Harold Lockwood, of the American company located at Santa Barbara is one who expects to send his cream-colored car down the coast, and Dustin Farnum is planning to make the trip. To get a punch in the unveiling ceremonies, Col. Ed Fletcher of San Diego is arranging this detail. He is planning something brief but snappy to take place on the newest portion of the route between Capistrano and the San Diego county line. Santa Ana, Anaheim, Orange, Ocean-side, Fullerton and other coast cities are planning to send delegations along with the main body from Los Angeles. Because of the necessity to reach San Diego before it gets dark, in order to give the camera man opportunity to get films of the trek, no stops will be made during the course of the parade, with the exception of the one for the ceremony by the ocean. Each delegation will be waiting to fall into line as the lead cars from Los Angeles approach. Every motorist will be expected to take a basket lunch to be eaten at noon when the only stop is made. It is planned, then, to reach San Diego between three and four o'clock in the afternoon, allowing opportunity for a short rest before the time for the turkey at the exposition. Elaborate plans are being consumed for the Motor Ball for the night of Automobile Day, November 27. Jennings and Schoen said they met in Los Angeles a month ago. Jennings had a friend named John Stocking who told them how easy it was to pass bad checks. Jennings and Schoen decided to try it. They selected Santa Ana as the place for trying it, then decided upon Anaheim. Schoen got a room at the Nebelung apartments and posed as a contractor. Jennings passed the checks, and when question was raised he had the merchant call the rooming house, where Schoen was, and get assurance that the check was good. The plan worked on one merchant but failed on another, with the result that the two men were arrested. “This is the third or fourth case in which the sum of $13.50 was used on a bogus check,” said Judge West. Jennings said that the reason he used it was that it figured out for a week’s wages at $2.25 a day. Jennings said he had been a miner almost all his life. The men succeeded in cashing two checks for $13.50 each, one with Joe Lautenback and one with William Leslie. Leslie became suspicious after cashing the check and confided his fears to Phil Germann. Phill and Leslie went down to the Nebelung apartments and arrested Schoen, or “Schnelder” as he called himself, but Jennings escaped and led the officers a chase. He was captured by Marshal Kellenberger in the Griffith Lumber company’s yard. Every motorist will be expected to take a basket lunch to be eaten at noon when the only stop is made. It is planned, then, to reach San Diego between three and four o’clock in the afternoon, allowing opportunity for a short rest before the time for the turkey at the exposition. Elaborate plans are being consumed for the Motor Ball for the night of Automobile Day, November 27. QPESTION CLEARED UP. Anaheim Readers Can No Longer Doubt The Evidence Again and again we have read of strangers in distant towns who have been cured by this or that medicine. But Anaheim’s pertinent question has always been “Has anyone here in Anaheim been cured?” The word of a stranger living a hundred miles away may be true, but it cannot have the same weight with us as the word of our own citizens, whom we know and respect, and whose evidence we can so easily prove. Mrs. Backs, 228 N. Lemon St., Anaheim, says: “My back and kidneys troubled me. When on my feet, I was worse and colds and overwork increased the suffering. I felt tired and lame and run down. All the pains andaches yielded to Doan’s Kidney Pills and made me feel like a different person. Since then, I have never been without Doan’s Kidney Pills. Another in our home has used Doan’s Kidney Pills and has had good results.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Backs had.
