The levees are of a substantial character and will stop any further overflow, provided the stream does not assume too large proportions. The men are to be highly commended for their labors. However, Mr. Hill believes that to put the river bed in shape to cope with flood waters as have been recently experienced will be a stupendous undertaking. The first authentic reports from the Santa Ana mountains of the amount of rainfall were brought by Forest Ranger J. B. Stephenson of El Toro. He received them from Harry Compton of the Tin Mines in Trabuco canyon. The night before the heaviest flood in the Santiago, Trabuco and San Juan creeks was the night of Thursday, Jan. 24. In that twelve hours seven and a half inches of rain fell at the Tin Mines. Compton's record for the season is now 44.25 inches. In the one storm over 18 inches of rain fell. J. W. Duckworth's call for assistance at the river Sunday morning for the purpose of stretching a cable was unheeded so far as volunteers were concerned. Mr. Duckworth, H. M. Adams, F. A. Yungbluth, W. P. Quarton and A. W. Wood went out to the bridge Sunday morning, but nobody else put in an appearance, consequently they come to town and hired a force of twenty Mexicans. A cable was drawn from the west end of the bridge to a point near the gap in the embankment above.

Reductions in all Departments Immense. STERN & GOODMAN MERC. CO. Fullerton, Calif. Last Friday evening while the city trustees were in session some reckless thief who has no reverence for law in his system or fear of consequences, stole an overcoat and plush robe from City Attorney Ames' auto while it was standing in front of the city hall. A tramp, who was later arrested by Deputy Marshal Germann coughed up the overcoat, but some other man was in possession of the lap robe. The Santa Ana police are trying to locate a man who gave the name of Ed Stone at Anaheim. The search is being made on a telephone message from the proprietor of the Palace rooming house of this city, who says that he endorsed two $10 checks for Stone, and who says that the checks came back from the First National Bank of Santa Ana. Joseph Grundy, has brought suit against G. E. and A. M. Fletcher.

Fullerton defeated the Los Angeles team two weeks previously by a 6 to 5 score, and the deciding game will be played a week from Sunday. It is said the Los Angeles team violated the rules of amateur baseball by bringing down 6 professional players from the city. They had had a taste of Fullerton's prowess and knew they could not win on their own merits. Fullerton has one of the best semi-professional teams in California and if the boys lose the championship to that bunch from the city it will be because of trickery. Charles Dussourt of this city and Miss Minnie Katzer of Los Angeles were married in the Cathedral in Los Angeles on Tuesday of last week, Rev Father F. J. Dubbel of this city officiating.

Back from the Trabuco Canyon in which hundreds of fine trees were washed away in the flood, Forest Rangers Stephenson and Clark bring the story of Clark's narrow escape from death last Friday night. On rain beginning to fall, the rangers decided to get out of the canyon. Stephenson started his wagon across the creek in the darkness. Two wheels on one side dropped into a deep hole just as a wheel on the other side hit a rock. Clark was hurled headfirst off the seat into the swift creek. He landed between two boulders. Had he struck either he would undoubtedly have been stunned and drowned. The stream washed him away. Stephenson in the darkness could see nothing of his companion, but jumped into the water in search of him. Clark was washed against a bank and crawled out. Frank Eastman was over from Santa Ana on a visit to old time friends in this city Monday.
