TWO CANDIDATES ONLY FOR THE ASSEMBLY CRAWFORD REFUSES TO QUALIFY AND MRS. MILLS IS ALSO OUT OF THE RUNNING SUPERVISOR WM. SCHUMACHER HAS NO OPPOSITION FOR RE-ELECTION IN 3RD DISTRICT Only two candidates will appear on the primary ballot for assemblyman from Orange county. They are J. C. Burke, republican, and W. W. Simon, democrat, both of Santa Ana. Friends of Thomas Crawford of this city circulated petitions for him for the republican, prohibition and democratic nominations, but the democratic petition on being checked at the county clerk's office Thursday was found to be shy the necessary number of qualified signers and was rejected. It contained forty-seven signatures, but on being checked it was found that ten of them were not eligible to sign, leaving only thirty-seven good names on the list. Crawford had the endorsement of the progressive central committee, but no petition was circulated for that party's nomination. "I notified Crawford over the telephone of the situation," said County Clerk Williams after the democratic petition had been found wanting, "and asked him to come over and check the petition over if he cared to do so. He replied that he did not know that time was recently restored by the Landmarks Club. A period of nine years, beginning in 1797, was consumed in the construction of the main church. Indian neophytes transported the stone from nearby quarries for the building, which was erected in the shape of a Roman cross. In 1812 a large part of the structure was reduced by an earthquake which came early one Sunday morning while mass services were in progress. Little heed was paid to the first tremor. The second shock shook free a mass of granite which fell on the kneeling worshippers, killing 43 persons and injuring many others. Architects estimate that with improved modern methods the old church could not be reconstructed under $100,000. NEW DRAINAGE SYSTEM Underground Ditches Being Bored by Machinery The Santa Ana Sugar company has introduced the latest method of drainage on its 800-acre tract south of Santa Ana, commonly known as the McFadden pasture. Eight inch drain ditches are being made four feet under the surface at intervals of thirty feet. The work has been in progress for two or three weeks and has attracted wide attention from those who live in sections where drainage is necessary. Three large tractors and a gopher plow are used in the new system. The plow is a single beam affair with a point similar to a subsoller, on the head of which is a steel torpedo, or gopher, eight inches in diameter. This is pulled through the ground at a depth of about four feet, forming a perfect eight-inch drain ditch. The drains are put in every thirty feet, all of them leading to the main ditches which have been made with dredgers. ARRESTED Peculiar Chance Visitor James J.

Crawford had the endorsement of the progressive central committee, but no petition was circulated for that party's nomination. "I notified Crawford over the telephone of the situation," said County Clerk Williams after the democratic petition had been found wanting, "and asked him to come over and seek the petition over if he cared to do so. He replied that he did not know anything about it, as he had not actively entered into the project. He said he did not know that he would qualify for the nominations, but he would talk the matter over with those who had been interested in bringing him out. Friday morning Crawford asked me if Simon had qualified, and I said he had. Crawford then said he would not qualify." Mr. Crawford made the statement at Santa Ana Friday afternoon that he positively would not qualify and that Mrs. Elizabeth Mills would not send in her certificate. This would leave the field to Burke and Simon. William Schumacher, the third district's popular supervisor, is practically re-elected by acclamation, as no candidate has appeared against him in either party. Some talk early in the season of putting forth a candidate to run against him dwindled away owing to the overwhelming sentiment for him both in the republican and democratic parties. In the first supervisor district, H. E. Smith, the incumbent, and S. H. Finley are the candidates. Although the third supervisor district is entitled to six members of the republican county central committee only three candidates have filed nomination petitions. They are J. A. Fay, E. N. Cook and John Kellenberger all of Anaheim. The Fullerton and Placentia candidates failed to send in their papers. The democratic committeemen for the third district are B. Fisher, C. E. Jones and E. A. Sparkes of Anaheim, and W. T. Brown, L. P. Drake and S. W. McCulloch of Fullerton. The prohibitionists of the third district have only five. They are C. S. Cox, Flora A. Cox, I. H. Dysinger, S. R. Cokley and L. B. Steward. Only two candidates for state senator have filed nomination papers. They are S. C. Evans of Riverside, republican, and W. L. Duggan of Santa Ana, democrat. Mrs. Elizabeth Mills and Thomas Crawford have declined to qualify as candidates for the assembly, and the Three large tractors and a gopher plow are used in the new system. The plow is a single beam affair with a point similar to a subsoller, on the head of which is a steel torpedo, or gopher, eight inches in diameter. This is pulled through the ground at a depth of about four feet, forming a perfect eight-inch drain ditch. The drains are put in every thirty feet, all of them leading to the main ditches which have been made with dredgers. Three Holt caterpillars are required to drag the plow, one 75-horse power and two 60-horsepower machines. They handle the ditchmaker with ease. One machine is owned by the Santa Ana Sugar company and the other two belong to I. M. Von Schrilitz. The lead machine is handled by a Jap, the second by Miles Von Schrilitz and the third by Peter Rowan. This method of drainage has been in vogue in the east for many years and was introduced in Southern California about two years ago by the American Sugar company at Arlington, Chino, and on the Patterson ranch at Oxnard. It has proven successful in draining the ground more perfectly and quickly than the system of open ditches. The ditches have a life of from two to sixteen years, depending on the character of the ground. The gopher plow makes a smooth-faced closed ditch. The beam is narrow and cuts through the ground like a blade, and does not leave a large opening extending from the surface to the ditch. The work now in progress will probably be completed by the end of the week. Next season it is probable that similar work will be done on other lands in this vicinity. CALIFORNIANS WIN Two High School Students Land Honors in Essay Contest Margaret E. Buell of Santa Paula and Gladys E. Murphy of Napa, two California high school students, have won signal honors in a national essay writing contest. Fannie Fern Andrews of Boston, secretary of the American School Peace League, has just notified Superintendent Hyatt at Sacramento of the remarkable success of these two young ladies, who are seniors in the high schools of their respective towns.

Mrs. Elizabeth Mills and Thomas Crawford have declined to qualify as candidates for the assembly, and the race is now confined to Assemblyman Burke and W. W. Simon of Santa Ana. Assemblyman Burke has been endorsed by a number of prominent democrats throughout the county, and has filed a petition for the democratic nomination for member of the legislature. His name will appear upon both the republican and democratic ballots at the primary election and Joe's friends say that he will have no trouble in landing both nominations. He has no opposition as the republican nominee, and with the democratic nomination tucked safely away, will probably be elected by acclamation in November. TALK OF RECONSTRUCTING SAN JUAN MISSION Will Cost $100,000 to Rebuild the Historic Structure When national touring week, August 6 to 12, rolls around hundreds of automobile owners will include San Juan Capistrano mission in their schedule of interesting points to visit. The old mission stands on the coast route of the state highway in the Southern end of this county, and is recognized as one of the most interesting ruins in Southern California. The mission was established in 1776 by Father Serra and the Franciscan friars. The old adobe church built at Margaret E. Buell of Santa Paula and Gladys E. Murphy of Napa, two California high school students, have won signal honors in a national essay writing contest. Fannie Fern Andrews of Boston, secretary of the American School Peace League, has just notified Superintendent Hyatt at Sacramento of the remarkable success of these two young ladies, who are seniors in the high schools of their respective towns. These prizes, known as the Seaberry Prizes, were offered to the high schools of the whole world and two of the three were captured by the California girls, Miss Buell winning the first and Miss Murphy the third. The announcement of the wards was made public at the annual meeting of the League in New York July 10th. It is an annual event, but the Golden State has never won a place beore. The American School Peace League is a nation wide organization, with ex-President Taft as its president and among its vice-presidents such as Dr. Jordan, Commissioner Claxton, Jane Addams, Ella Flag Young, Joseph Swain. The committee of judges included President Johnson of the National Educational association, Carroll G. Pearse of Milwaukee and Edward F. Buchner of Johns Hopkins university. The real estate agents of this city recently enjoyed a luncheon at the Valencia and during the evening discussed matters pertaining to their calling and to the best interests of Anaheim in general. The real estaters of this city are all of them optimists in every sense of the word and see a very brightened future before us.

ARRESTED FOR INSULTING THREE LITTLE GIRLS Peculiar Charges Filed Against Aged Visitor From Colorado James J. Naylor was arraigned before Judge Howard last Wednesday, charged with taking improper liberties with three little girls. Naylor did not attempt to deny the charges preferred by the girls, but admitted everything. He was bound over to superior court in the sum of $1000, which was furnished by Dr. Parker an old Colorado friend. The little girls are June and Laura Vandame, and Neille Orr, all of East Sycamore street. They range in age from seven to eleven. The children were swinging on the limb of a tree when Naylor appeared on the scene and, according to their statement, "acted naughty." The girls told of his actions to Deputy Marshal Germann, and on a warrant being sworn to by Peter Vandame, father of two of the children, he was arrested. Naylor is 62 years of age, and has been visiting a daughter here. He admits all the charges made against him by the children, but declares he meant no harm and does not know why he did it. People who have known him say he bears an excellent character, and are at a loss to account for his actions. Dr. D. L. Parker, who knew him in Colorado, deposited $1000 cash for his appearance in the superior court. DAMAGE SUIT CHANGED TO U. S.

It is far richer than the ordinary article and the DAMAGE SUIT CHANGED TO U.S. DISTRICT COURT Ruess and Hardin Cases Against Santa Fe to be Tried in Los Angeles A change from the Orange county superior court to the United States district court has been granted in the suits for damages brought by Wm. R. Ruess, Lora M. Ruess and Dr. F. S. Hardin against the Santa Fe railroad company. Damages to the amount of $51,575 are asked by the plaintiffs. The three actions were brought as a result of the accident at Irvine station, Saturday afternoon, May 6th, last when the lives of Ruess' two children, Murial Ramona and Dorothy, and Dr. Hardin's daughter, Mildred, were snuffed out when a northbound Santa Fe passenger train struck the automobile in which the party was riding. In addition to Ruess and the three children, Mrs. Ruess was in the automobile and suffered terrible injuries as a result of the crash. Ruess asks $10,000 from the railroad company for the death of each of his children and demands $1575 additional for the loss of his automobile which was totally destroyed. Mrs. Ruess asks the sum of $20,000 for the injuries which she sustained and from which she has not entirely recovered. Dr. Hardin asks $10,000 for the death of his daughter. Suit was brought in the Orange county court, but on petition of the railroad company's attorney's the change has been granted. COMPANY L THANKFUL Boys Relieve Their Minds by Passing Set of Resolutions Company L, Seventh regiment, in camp at Nogales, adopted and sent the following resolutions: Whereas the people of Orange county, both fraternal and individually, together with the business houses and newspapers of said county, have so generously given us the glad hand of encouragement and appreciation, both in the interests shown in our welfare, and by the presentation to the company of a beautiful silk flag, and by supplying us with so many added comforts of life which had brought in. The justice said that he did not believe that the county prohibition ordinance was meant to cover such instances. He said he believed the regulation against the giving away of liquor was meant to prevent subterfuges, for instance, the sale of a cracker and the giving away of a glass of beer with the cracker. TEN MORE BELLS FOR EL CAMINO REAL Supervisors Appropriate $375 for Installing the Same The board of supervisors on Tuesday directed County Auditor Jerome to draw a warrant for $375 in favor of El Camino Real association for the installation of ten bells on the state highway in Orange county.

A deed to a piece of land on the boulevard south of this city has been deeded to Theodore and George Ford by the county of Orange. A number of years ago this property was deeded to the county by the Fords for a pumping plant for the purpose of sprinkling the roadway. There was a clause in the deed to the effect that should it cease to be used for that purpose the strip should revert to the Fords. Since the highway has been paved it is no longer necessary to sprinkle, consequently the county has turned it back to the original owners. Expert piano tuning, F. W. Schmidt.
