DEATH SUDDENLY CALLS ANAHEIM CITIZEN
LEVI MANN STRICKEN WITH FATAL ILLNESS IN MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT
FUNERAL TODAY WITH KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS AND ORDER OF EAGLES PARTICIPATING
Without premonitory warning Levi Mann, of the Mann apartment house, on Olive street, was stricken with a fatal illness Monday night, death resulting in less than an hour. Apparently in his usual health Mr. Mann, accompanied by his wife, attended the Fairyland theater Monday night. They returned home and retired at the usual hour, but shortly after midnight Levi got up and went into the bathroom. It was necessary for him to pass the bedroom occupied by his father-in-law, G. W. McAulay. On his return he was stricken before reaching his room, staggered to Mr. McAulay's bed and fell with his arms across the bed.
MRS. ROSA RICHMUELLER
SUMMONED BY DEATH
Passes Away After Five Years of Intense Suffering
After an illness extending over a period of five years, Mrs. Rosa Richmueller, died at the home of her brother-in-law, Otto Puchert, at 217 South Bush street Saturday evening. Mrs. Richmueller leaves a husband and five-year-old son, the husband being employed on the Neff ranch. She has been an invalid since the birth of her son, and during a portion of the time was perfectly helpless being unable to move her limbs. She went back to her old home in Iowa four years ago in the hope of getting relief, but the change was of no avail, and she returned to Anaheim.
Her case was a baffling one to physicians. Several were called to attend her but she grew gradually worse.
Funeral was held at Backs & Terry's undertaking parlors Monday afternoon, Rev. Spaeth of the German M. E. church and Rev. Leuchner of the Baptist church officiating. She was buried in the Anaheim cemetery. She was 39 years of age.
SALT LAKE OFFICIALS ARE GETTING ACTIVE
WORK ALREADY BEGUN ON ROAD TO SAN DIEGO IT IS SAID
Definite details which clear up the
ently in his usual health Mr. Mann,
accompanied by his wife, attended
the Fairyland theater Monday night.
They returned home and retired at
the usual hour, but shortly after midnight Levi got up and went into the
bathroom. It was necessary for him
to pass the bedroom occupied by his
father-in-law, G. W. McAulay. On
his return he was stricken before
reaching his room, staggered to Mr.
McAulay's bed and fell with his arms
across the bed.
He was lifted into the bed and a
hasty message sent for Dr. Truxaw,
who found that he was suffering from
a ruptured artery. He regained consciousness after a time and asked to
be taken to his own bed, also remarking that he would not be able to work
next day, but relapsed shortly afterward and died in less than an hour
after being stricken.
Mr. Mann has lived in Anaheim for
the past eighteen years. He was the
builder and owner of the Mann apment houses, and was also bartender
at the Cassou saloon on Los Angeles
street. He was a man of large stature
and apparently in robust health,
and his sudden demise is a shock to
the friends of the family. Only last
week he and his wife returned from
a three weeks outing at San Francisco. He was married twelve years
ago to Miss Cora McAulay, who survives him. He also has a brother,
living at Pasadena, and a half brother,
Frank Lee, whose home is at Watts.
His mother, who formerly lived here,
was killed by the cars two years ago
at Ontario.
The body was taken to Backs &
Terry's chapel where the funeral will
be held today. Mr. Mann was a member of the Knights of Pythias lodge
and also an Eagle, and these orders
have arranged to take part in the
funeral. He was 41 years of age.
The funeral will be conducted according to the rites of the two orders to
which he belonged.

OIL DRILLERS RETURN
FROM FAR-AWAY INDIA
Frank McBride and Charles Nevin
Back After a Three Years
Absence
Frank McBride and Charles Nevin returned last week from India, whither they went three years ago to enter the employ of a large oil development company. They returned rather discouraged by the treatment accorded them, claiming that the company failed to live up to their part of the contract. During the past three or four years a large number of oil drillers left this state for India, but recently about 125 men have returned to this country, owing to dissatisfaction. The oil produced in India is pronounced of a very good quality, going 32 per cent pure.
Messrs. Nevins and McBride are expert drillers and as yet are undecided as to their further activities. McBride says he would go to Russia should the war horizon clear, claiming that country offers the best oil inducements of any foreign country. The party was 90 days in making the homeward trip from India, and were compelled to change boats seven times in transit. The gentlemen, while they say India has rich oil prospect, were glad to return to this section, where they have lived for many years.
Mr. and Mrs. Phil Steafather left Monday in an auto for Sullivan county, Pennsylvania. They expect to make the entire trip in the machine, camping at night by the wayside. Mrs. Steafather has extensive property interests in Pennsylvania, and contemplates spending a year there looking after affairs.
That the Salt Lake proposed to build into Orange county and on to San Diego has been the supposition for some time. In the last few months decided color has been lent to that belief because of the fact that a mysterious land buyer had been purchasing outright and in other instances obtaining options. All the options were on narrow strips which tended to support the theory that they were to be used for a railroad right of way.
More recently a crew of surveyors who refused to reveal their mission was at work over the supposed route the railroad was to take but their object in surveying the land was as mysterious as had been the circumstances back of the option purchases.
It now appears that both the surveyors and the land buyers were operating for the Salt Lake and that the latter bided its time until practically all the details had been completed before allowing the project to become known.
ARMADILLO FOUND
An armadillo, so far as known the only one ever found in this section, was killed near Capistrano, according to Oscar Woodward, whose attention was aroused by a pattering sound in the yard close to the house Sunday night. He arose and shot the animal.
The armadillo is a native of the tropics and is seldom found north of Mexico. Its flesh is frequently used for food, and the round shell, into which Mr. Armadillo curls his body on occasions, is seen in any western curio store shaped into basket form.
Mr. Woodward plans to keep the shell as an ornamental souvenir.

RIVER CONTROL DISTRICT FORMED
SUPERVISORS GRANT PETITION AND AUTHORIZE PROTECTION WORK ON RIVER BANKS
BUENA PARK-CYPRESS PEOPLE ATTEMPT TO GET OUT BUT ARE OVERRULED
After a session lasting from one o'clock in the afternoon until eleven o'clock at night, the supervisors on Wednesday granted the prayer of the petitioners, asking for the formation of the United protection district, and passed a resolution organizing the district. There was strenuous opposition to the proposition, and a long list of attorneys were present to fight it. The objectors hoped to defeat the project on the ground that the notices mailed by the county clerk to the 4300 taxpayer in the district were not malled in accordance with the law inasmuch as the list was made up from the 1916 tax roll, which was not completed at the time, but Deputy District Attorney Eden rendered.
of South and Broad street, is in town with his wife and three children on a tour of the coast which will occupy several weeks. Mr. Bruns has been a reader of this journal for a number of years past and keeps informed upon local conditions, by reading the news first hand in these columns. He purchased his ranch here four years ago, setting it to Valencia orange trees, which are doing remarkably well, being so filled with young fruit that he has stripped them from the trees inasmuch as they are too heavily laden. He will probably come to this city at some time in the future and make his home here. He will remain on the coast several weeks, visiting the San Diego exposition and other points of interest, and will return to Burlington in time to cast his vote in November. He says Iowa will be overwhelmingly for Hughes and Fairbanks, and a republican delegation to congress.
Mr. Bruns left Iowa with his family previous to the recent spell of warm weather in the east, and is delighted with the glorious climate of California. He reports crops are excellent in that state, and the people are enjoying prosperity.
ADVERTISE FOR BIDS FOR TWO HIGHWAYS
Supervisors Asking for Proposals on Canyon Roads
STREET PAVING IS TAKEN INTO COURT
MRS. A. B. MARKLE SECURES ORDER RESTRAINING PAVING CO. FROM PROCEEDING WITH WORK
CONTENTION IS THAT TRUSTEES DID NOT LET CONTRACT TO THE LOWEST BIDDER
Opponents of street paving on West Broadway have not yet abandoned the contest to prevent the improvements on that thoroughfare contemplated by the city trustees. They have now rallied in the last ditch and have appealed to the superior court for a restraining order prohibiting the work, contract for which was recently let to the L. A. Paving company.
For a number of years this question has been before the trustees. Many property owners on both East and West Broadway have been active in their efforts to get a paving order from the board, but there has always been a problem with paving roads.
passed a resolution organizing the district. There was strenuous opposition to the proposition, and a long list of attorneys were present to fight it. The objectors hoped to defeat the project on the ground that the notices mailed by the county clerk to the 4300 taxpayer in the district were not maligned in accordance with the law inasmuch as the list was made up from the 1916 tax roll, which was not completed at the time, but Deputy District Attorney Eden rendered an opinion that was not an obstacle to the formation of the district, and the supervisors could ignore that point.
The proceedings opened Wednesday afternoon with the reading of Mr. Eden's opinion advising the supervisors to proceed with the hearing. A petition was presented for the formation of a small protection district to be known as the Buena Park-Cypress protection district. Those in this district expected to be allowed to form a district and thus be excluded from the larger United district. Their intention was to take flood waters to Coyote Creek. Those favoring the larger district declared it was a move of the Buena Park and Cypress people to get out of the big district.
Action upon this petition was postponed to August 15.
More than six hundred property owners had filed protests and objected to the formation of the district, but after hearing the petitions and the arguments of attorneys none were excluded. The opponents of the district fought it at every turn of the road. Not a move was made that did not bring forth a strenuous objection on the part of some one or more of the half dozen attorneys engaged in seeking a death-grip on the district. The supervisors overruled all the objections and ordered the formation of the district. The only territory excluded was that included in the Fullerton-Orangethorpe protection district, organized a week ago, which district is to care for storm waters coming from Carbon canyon. Not another foot of land went out.
The Hellman and Blixby interests weer among those fighting the district Immediate steps are to be taken to attack the validity of the action of the board.

ADVERTISE FOR BIDS FOR TWO HIGHWAYS
Supervisors Asking for Proposals on Canyon Roads
The board of supervisors have decided to call for bids for the construction of two roads in the Sulphur Slide section of the Santa Ana canyon. One of these roads as proposed will be along the side of the river about where the road stood before it was washed out by the January flood: The other will be on the south side of the hill, that road going over the ridge to avoid Sulphur Slide.
Engineer H. Clay Kellogg made a proposition to the supervisors that has been accepted. He said that with a concrete bulkhead 1800 feet long absolute protection could be given to a road built where the old road stood. The cost might be greater, but he and the supervisors agreed that it was far preferable to going over the hill, where a six per cent grade and numerous sharp turns would be encountered.
Kellogg said he proposed to bid for the construction of the river road, and he declared that he would draw plans and specifications for the work, subject to the approval of the county authorities, and would not charge any commission for them if he got the contract. If some other contractor gets the work, Kellogg's commission for the plans and specifications would be two per cent of the contract price.
Kellogg further said he was willing to guarantee that the cost of the lower road would not be over one and one-third more than the upper road. If the contract price was not within that proportion he would charge nothing for his plans and specifications, even if he did not get the contract.
The supervisors decided to accept the offer. Kellogg's plans and specifications called for the lower road and bulkhead were accepted. In the bidding he has no more and no less an advantage than any other bidder. Bids for the upper road are to be founded upon plans and specifications in the office of the county surveyor as prepared by Deputy Surveyor Hoy.
For a number of years this question has been before the trustees. Many property owners on both East and West Broadway have been active in their efforts to get a paving order from the board, but there has always been a strenuous opposition which was strong enough to defeat the project. The trustees, however, finally decided to bring the matter to a head and fixed March 9 as the date for considering the matter and hearing protests. When the board met many Broadwayites wer present and numerous protests were filed with the city clerk. It was decided to take no action until City Engineer Steward had figured up the total frontage of the protestants and reported to the trustees the percentage of the whole opposed to the paving. On March 23 Mr. Steward reported that the opponents on East Broadway represented 2711 feet of frontage, or 49.6 per cent of the whole. On West Broadway the owners of 7904 feet protested, that frontage being 72.4 per cent of the total.
This protest was overruled by the board and the clerk instructed to publish resolutions of intention and to advertise for bids for the two jobs the same to be opened April 13.
When the board met on the 13th it was found that thirteen bids had been submitted, the lowest being that of George R. Curtis of Los Angeles, who agreed to take both contracts at 10.75 cents per square foot. E.R.Werdin of the L.A.Paving company, who has laid most of the paving in Anaheim, did not submit a bid but filled a letter stating that his attorneys had advised him that the proceedings were illegal owing to a technicality of the law and he refused to submit a bid. City Attorney Ames agreed with Mr.Werdin's contention, but Mr.Curtis demanded that the contract be awarded him and he would either sign or reject it as soon as he had consulted his own attorney. The contract was subsequently given to Mr.Curtis, but acting on the opinion of his attorney he refused to qualify and accept the work.
The resolutions of intention were republished and the bids under the new order were opened on July 13. E.R.Werdin of the L.A.Paving company was the lowest bidder for the city trustees. They have now rallied in the last ditch and have appealed to the superior court for a restraining order prohibiting the work, contract for which was recently let to the L.A.Paving company.

The Hellman and Bixby interests weer among those fighting the district immediate steps are to be taken to attack the validity of the action of the board. Within ten days an action may be brought in the superior court under review proceedings to determine whether or not the procedure of the board of supervisors has been in accordance with the law under which the district has been organized. Another move that may be made will be to seek a referendum of the resolution of the board. If a referendum is started, the question as to whether a referendum would have to be voted upon in the county at large, the act being an act of the board of supervisors, may be raised.
Among the witnesses examined were O. E. Steward and H. Clay Kellogg as engineers, W. W. Mantor to show the sufficiency of the petition, and R. H. Skiles to show the sufficiency of the mailing list used for giving notice. Kellogg said that all of the district is subject to overflow from the Santa Ana river.
The session lasted until 5 o'clock, and an evening session started at 6:30 o'clock. Finally a resolution was passed overruling all objections, and another resolution was passed organizing the district. The Buena Park-Cypress District territory was not excluded. The Fullerton-Orangethorpe territory was excluded.

LITTLE CHILD IS CALLED BY DEATH
Son of Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Criss Passes Away
Willard Irwin Criss the two-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Chas A. Criss, passed away Thursday at their home on South Bush street, death resulting from infantile diabetes.
Having a bright cheery disposition and ever ready smile he won friends wherever he went.
Funeral services were conducted from the Backs & Terry chapel on Friday at 3 o'clock. "Asleep in Jesus" was beautifully sung by Mr. and Mrs. L. R. Barmes, just before the little casket was lowered into its last resting place.
The pallbearers consisted of four little girls, playmates of the little fellow. They were Lydia Davis, Bernice Nickel, Laura McClellen and Helen Lund. The little body was laid to rest in the Anaheim cemetery amid masses of flowers, brought by loving hands.
The bereaved relatives and friends have the sympathy of all in their deep sorrow.
Dr. W. W. Adams drove over to Atolia, the tungsten center, Saturday.
Mr. Snyder of the rejected company was present at the meeting and came near creating a disorderly house when the committee made its report. He questioned the veracity of Messrs. Sackett and Steward, and Sackett was only prevented from using muscular argument in the discussion by the interference of Mayor Schneider. Mr. Snyder was peeved. He announced that he would bring suit against the mayor, the trustees, the street superintendent, the city engineer, the L. A. Paving company, and anybody else who happened to be involved in the

of years this question the trustees. Many on both East and they have been active in get a paving order, but there has always matter if there were any others. His temper finally cooled to a normal condition and the trustees awarded the contract to Mr. Werdin.
And now comes another chapter in the proceedings. On Saturday Mrs. Cynthia Markel, wife of Rev. A. B. Markle, who resides at the corner of Broadway and Citron, filed an injunction suit in superior court, asking for an order restraining further work on the contract. Judge West granted the order suspending work temporarily, and the question will be heard in his court today. The city of Anaheim, the five trustees, the street superintendent and the L. A. Paving company are named in the order. Mrs. Markle is, of course, acting for all the protestants and probably for the S. & C. company also. The attorneys are Tipton & Callor of this city, and Neice & Packard of Los Angeles. The complaint is that the trustees did not grant the contract to the lowest bidder, consequently their action was arbitrary and not in accordance with law. The action hinges on the report of Messrs. Sackett and Steward, who, after investigating the work of the company in various towns, returned an unfavorable report. Mr. Snyder protested against the statements of the committee and told the trustees that he could bring plenty of witnesses to prove that his work was satisfactory, but as the board, in the advertisement soliciting bids, reserved the right to vote.
CAMPAIGN SOON TO OPEN IN ANAHEIM
REPUBLICAN CLUB PREPARING FOR BIG RALLY BEFORE THE DATE OF AUGUST PRIMARY
CANDIDATES BOOTH AND HARBISON AND CAPTAIN FREDERICS WILL BE ASKED TO SPEAK
Anaheim republicans are making preparations for a rally at a date which has not yet been definitely fixed, but will be during the week previous to the August primary, which will be held on Tuesday, August 29. At its meeting Monday night the Republican club endorsed the candidacy of Willis H. Booth of Los Angeles, for United States Senator, and R. C. Harbison of San Bernardino, for congressman from the Eleventh district, and decided that a good old-fashioned rally, with lots of noise and enthusiasm would be the proper way to present these candidates to the men and women who

Of years this question made the trustees. Many cases on both East and West have been active in getting a paving order, but there has always been opposition which brought to defeat the pro-tees, however, finally the matter to a head in 9 as the date for con-duct and hearing proceeded, that front-page cent of the total was overruled by the clerk instructed to publish intention and to adhere for the two jobs the closed April 13.

Of the L. A. Paving the lowest bidder for the bitrary and not in accordance with law. The action hinges on the report of Messrs. Sackett and Steward, who, after investigating the work of the company in various towns, returned an unfavorable report. Mr. Snyder protested against the statements of the committee and told the trustees that hb could bring plenty of witnesses to prove that his work was satisfactory, but as the board, in the advertisement soliciting bids, reserved the right to reject any or all of them, the matter may not be carried that far in court.
This is the last stand of the protestants, and the outcome of the contest will be awaited with interest. The money involved is of small consequence, as the difference in the bids of the two paving companies was only six hundredths of a cent per square foot, or less than two cents per lineal foot of frontage, but a large majority of the West Broadway people are opposed to paving at any price, and they will take advantage of any peg on which they can hang a restraining order. The amount of surface to be paved is 327,450 square feet, making the difference between the two bids of little consequence, but the protestants claim the trustees have let the contract unlawfully inasmuch as they did not award it to the lowest bidder. The total cost of the paving under Mr. Werdin's bid is $35,176, and under Snyder's $34,980, there being only $196 difference.
AUTO CRASHES INTO FRONT OF BUILDING
Column at Entrance of German American Bank Destroyed by Speed Maniac
Since early Tuesday morning the police have been busy trying to discover the automobilist who ran onto the sidewalk at the corner of Center and Los Angeles streets, tore a mail box out by the roots and jammed it into the front of the German American bank, but such slight clews as they found led to nothing. George Mitchell night linetype operator at the Gazette office, discovered the wreckage shortly before four o'clock after he had quit work, but the man had made his getaway, and no auto was in sight.
The accident must have happened close to three o'clock. What direction the auto was traveling is not known to the August primary, which will be held on Tuesday, August 29. At its meeting Monday night the Republican club endorsed the candidacy of Willis H. Booth of Los Angeles, for United States Senator, and R. C. Harbison of San Bernardino, for congressman from the Eleventh district, and decided that a good old-fashioned rally, with lots of noise and enthusiasm would be the proper way to present these candidates to the men and women who will cast their ballots in the primary election on the 29th.
President Krause was asked to communicate with both Mr. Booth and Mr. Harbison and ask them to be present at a meeting on a date which would be convenient to them, if such a date could be arranged. Mr. Harbison is not yet making a speaking campaign, and does not expect to begin until after the primary, but he will probably be able to borrow a day from his get-acquainted campaign and return to Anaheim. Mr. Booth has been speaking in the north and will wind up his campaign in the south, consequently it is believed he can be secured for one night.
Captain John D. Fredericks, candidate for governor two years ago, who is one of the most brilliant orators in the state, will also be invited to attend. In case Mr. Booth finds it impossible to be present an effort will be made to have Captain Fredericks substituted, and if he cannot come some other good speaker from Los Angeles will be secured. An invitation will also be extended to Santa Ana republicans. The club of that city will be asked to come in a body and bring the most elequent speakers in Santa Ana along.
The meeting will be held in the opera house, and the club expects to engage the Anaheim band to furnish music. Whether Mr. Booth is secured or not some of the best spell-binders in the South will pe present, and an interesting meeting is promised. The date could not be determined until President Krause had communicated with Mr. Booth.

PACIFIC ELECTRIC WILL
ESTABLISH JITNEY LINE
Parallel Present Lines and Branch Out
Is Plan In View
The Private secretary of President Paul Shoup of the Pacific Electric, has made public the plans of that company for competing with the jfneys.
The railroads realize that rail lines cannot in any appreciable way furnish the service rendered by auto busses and trucks running over the public roads. For this reason, and because the busses are cutting into the railroad revenues to such an extent, the Pacific Electric, for one, has decided to try busses on its own account. Already, they have built six fine auto stages, painted to conform with their cars, in crimson lake, with gold striping. These are purely for a tryout. Two have already been sent to Fresno, to furnish service with East Fresno. Two of them will be sent this week to Santa Monica, and the other two will be held for use wherever required.
DIDN'T LIKE SEAT
Dr. George Sepulveda of Los Angeles has brought suit for $5,000 damages against the Yyric Theater of Santa Ana, because, it is alleged, an usher attempted to compel him to sit in a section reserved for Mexicans.
Dr. Sepulveda declares he informed the usher that he was a citizen, voter and property owner and entitled to sit wherever other citizens were allowed. When the usher insisted, it is asserted, he left the theater.
