PREPARING FOR SANTA’S VISIT TO ANAHEIM THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE IN THE CITY SATURDAY PURCHASING HOLIDAY GOODS MUNICIPAL CHRISTMAS TREE TO BE PLANTED EAST OF MA-SONIC TEMPLE SATUR-DAY NIGHT There are five thousand automobiles in Orange county, and the timid pedestrian, who was forced to cross one of the business streets Saturday afternoon and Saturday night, was convinced that they were all in Anaheim, with a few hundreds from other counties added to the number. Most of the ranchers in the northern section of the county load their families into autos and come to Anaheim Saturday nights for the purpose of mingling with its hospitable people, to shop at its splendid stores or to attend one of its nature establishment and turn in the name and address. These gentlemen are on the relief committee, and will gladly list the names of all families in want. Then there is the municipal Christmas tree. This will not be planted this year at the intersection of Los Angeles and Center streets, because it interferes with traffic. It was necessary to fence off four blocks a year ago which was an inconvenience to the hundreds of tourists passing through. It will be raised on the vacant ground west of the Masonic Temple, where there is plenty of room for the spectators, and Saturday night is the date. F. K. Gresswell has charge of the decorations, which means that the job will be an artistic one. R. E. Corcoran has been appointed by Santa Claus as his deputy to take charge of the distribution of the presents, because Santa cannot be here in person. Six hundred stockings will be hung on the tree, a thousand toys have been purchased, and innumerable packages of candy will be distributed by Mr. Corcoran and his assistants. There will be nothing costly on the tree, but the packages will be large enough to gladen the hearts of the hundreds of kid-lets who will receive them. The Anaheim City Band will be present and make music for the occasion and there will probably be a short in Orange county, and the third pedestrian, who was forced to cross one of the business streets Saturday afternoon and Saturday night, was convinced that they were all in Anaheim, with a few hundreds from other counties added to the number. Most of the ranchers in the northern section of the county load their families into autos and come to Anaheim Saturday nights for the purpose of mingling with its hospitable people, to shop at its splendid stores or to attend one of its excellent theatres, but the crowds last Saturday night outdid all previous records, notwithstanding the fact that a heavy fog came up early in the evening and enveloped the city with an almost impenetrable blanket. This is the Christmas season and every body remembered that Santa Claus was due to make his annual visit on Sunday night, consequently they came in to buy a few extras for the old Saint to distribute among the numerous stockings he would find waiting for him. They were spending some of the surplus money which they have received for their oranges, their lemons, their walnuts, their sugar beets, their beans, and the numerous other crops that have brought such generous prices this year. Autos were parked on both sides of the business streets until they reached almost to the city limits, and the man who located his own car had to identify it by the number. All the business houses were crowded with shoppers, all three of the theatres were overflowing, and the streets were congested with people who came merely to mingle with the crowds and enjoy the sights. Nearly all the business houses in the city are gaily and artistically decorated with the colors of the season. To describe one would be to describe all, except that in some cases the decorations are more elaborate than in others. Red and green are the predominant colors, with the scar and yellow autumn leaves mingling occasionally. Native flowers are also abundant, and loads of holly and mistletoe are used with a generous hand. Back in the icebound east and north they are also decorating in honor of the season, but they are doing it with imitation flowers manufactured from colored paper, but here the yards and gardens are brilliant with roses and poinsettas, and violets, and fuchsias, and palms—in fact, all the flowers that bloom in the good old summer time back east are flourishing here in the open in this good old Christmas time, CHRISTMAS SERVICES AT ST. BONIFACE'S CHURCH The first high mass will be celebrated at 5 a.m., the second mass at 8 a.m. The third, a solemn high mass at 10 a.m. At the last mass the choir will render St. Cecilia's Mass by Wells. Soloists, Mrs. E. P. De La Hunt and Mrs. Ray Fisher, assisted by the full choir. The orchestra will be under the direction of Miss Morgan assisted by Miss Ouellet, harpist; Mrs. Manjoks, cellist, Miss Morgan, Miss Rimpau, Miss Matters, first violin, Prof. C. Nitschke, Miss Lucas, second violin; Miss M. Rimpau organist. An invitation is extended to all to assist at this service. The joy and peace of a Christmas morning prompts us first to praise the Lord. FORMER ANAHEIM MAN SUDDENLY DISAPPEARS F. W. Fleischman, Bankrupt, Leaves For Parts Unknown F. W.Fleischman, a former Anaheim business man, who at one time conducted a meat market here, has suddenly disappeared from his home near Indio, and the fact that he left no word of his going is causing his friends much anxiety. While some advance cannot be here in person. Six hundred stockings will be hung on the tree, a thousand toys have been purchased, and innumerable packages of candy will be distributed by Mr. Corcoran and his assistants. There will be nothing costly on the tree, but the packages will be large enough to gladden the hearts of the hundreds of kidlets who will receive them. The Anaheim City Band will be present and make music for the occasion and there will probably be a short program of singing and declamation. All the churches in town are preparing for Christmas entertainments, and some excellent programs are being arranged. As these will be held Sunday night they will not interfere with the municipal tree. Each of the three theatres, also, will have some thing extra for the occasion. In fact there will be entertainment for people of all tastes and inclinations, and it should be a joyous season for everybody. The Gazette wishes all its readers and all others a merry Christmas, and may prosperity and happiness attend them through the coming year. Total ... Delinquent For light ... For water ...

Back in the icebound east and north they are also decorating in honor of the season, but they are doing it with imitation flowers manufactured from colored paper, but here the yards and gardens are brilliant with roses and poinsettas, and violets, and fuchsias, and palms—in fact, all the flowers that bloom in the good old summer time back east are flourishing here in the open in this good old Christmas time, together with a great many others that our eastern cousins never saw. While they are wading knee-deep in the snow, slipping on the icy pavements, and wearing heavy furs to ward off the northern blasts we are enjoying ideal summer weather. The crops and gardens are growing, the flowers are in full bloom, the orchard trees are bending under their loads of golden fruit, and the only snow in sight is capping the head of Old Baldy, sixty miles away. The merchants of Anaheim report an extraordinary trade this year. People are prosperous and they are buying with a lavish hand. While they are all purchasing toys a great many of them are also investing in costly goods, and they are buying in Anaheim. Those who have been going elsewhere usually got stung, and they have begun to awaken to the fact. The spirit of charity is in the air this year. While large sums have been sent from this region to relieve the suffering in war-ridden Europe, there is still money left to help the needy in our midst. The Elks have a generous fund on hand for this purpose. These antlered people always remember the poor and unfortunate at Christmas times, and bring good cheer to many homes. If you know of anybody who is in need call up Herman Noll of the Orange County Wine company, or Doc Barnes at the Stroup-Barnes Fur- FORMER ANAHEIM MAN SUDDENLY DISAPPEARS F. W. Fleischman, Bankrupt, Leaves For Parts Unknown F. W. Fleischman, a former Anaheim business man, who at one time conducted a meat market here, has suddenly disappeared from his home near Indio, and the fact that he left no word of his going is causing his friends much anxiety. While some advance the idea that he may have met with foul play or made away with himself, his Anaheim friends think he became so involved in financial difficulties that he could not see his way out, and suddenly left for parts unknown. Mr. Freischman purchased a large ranch at Indio, Riverside county, and left here last April to take possession of it. He had $35,000 or $40,000 at the time, and put it all into the ranch. His calculations miscarried, and in a few months he found that his capital was lost and he was heavily in debt. Some weeks ago he dropped out of sight and nothing has been heard of him since. Herman Stern, who went over to Indio last week to investigate, says in his opinion the man was simply bankrupt and decided to make a new start in a new field. Mr. Freischman has numerous friends in Anaheim who regret that she has met with financial reverses. Anton Kluewer of this city went to Santa Ana on the 9th and was married to Miss Charlotte Levecke, of Casa Verdugo. Both the bride and her parents are from Homestead, Pa., where she was a well known member of the young folks society. Their many friends have offered many congratulations and they desire to state that they will be at home to their friends in their suite in the Mann apartments from Christmas to New Years.

A communication ANAHEIM GAZETTE Anaheim, California, Thursday, Dec. 21 1916 CITY TRUSTEES IN REGULAR SESSION MONTHLY REPORTS SHOW CITY'S FINANCES IN HEALTHY CONDITION $29,950.59 COLLECTED FOR YEARLY TAXES, ONLY $229 BEING REPORTED DELINQUENT The city trustees met in regular session Thursday night with all members present except President Schneider. The meeting was called to order by Clerk Merritt and Trustee Cook was elected president pro. tem. No action was taken relative to advertising for bids for new equipment at the power house, a list of which had been submitted by Engineer Adams at the previous meeting. It is contended that by installation of the new plant, costing approximately $30,000, the city would be enabled to generate sufficient electric energy to op- Dreyfus Bros. of San Francisco, saying that since the right of way for alley purposes in rear of their property had been accepted by the city and the city was to keep the same in repair, the owners make the claim that the city should pay for the paving. The trustees have asked the city attorney for an opinion regarding the matter, which will be submitted at the next meeting. The question arises whether or not paving can be classed as keeping the alley "in repair." The trustees aver that the city should not pay for the pavement. A petition was received from Mr. Troutman and others, residents on Kroeger street, asking that the street be paved. The petition was ordered filed. It is believed that property owners on other streets, between Center and Broadway, will in the near future petition to have these streets paved. In view of this fact, the trustees will temporarily defer action upon ordering Krueger street paved, desiring to pass resolutions of intention embodying as many streets as possible at one time.. Residents on many short intervening streets, between Broadway and Center, which are the main arteries of the city, have in contemplation the paving of these several streets. It is contended that the upkeep of short dirt roads, between paved thoroughfares, would cost considerable. The FAMOUS PLAY AT NEW GRAND THEATRE D. W. GRI.FITH'S MASTERPIECE, "INTOLERANCE" TO BE SHOWN SUNDAY, MONDAY AND TUESDAY ANAHEIM SECURES ITS FIRST APPEARANCE ON SCREEN OUT-SIDE OF LOS ANGELES Perhaps the most spectacular play ever thrown on a screen will be shown at the New Grand on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, December 24, 25 and 26. There will be six performances, as a matinee will be given each afternoon. This is D. W. Griffith's latest production, "Intolerance," or "The Mother and the Law." This play has been running at Clune's Auditorium in Los Angeles for more than one hundred days, showing always to crowded houses, but owing to contracts signed up with managers in other cities it is neces- The meeting was called to order by Clerk Merritt and Trustee Cook was elected president pro tem. No action was taken relative to advertising for bids for new equipment at the power house, a list of which had been submitted by Engineer Adams at the previous meeting. It is contended that by installation of the new plant, costing approximately $30,000, the city would be enabled to generate sufficient electric energy to operate its municipal plant for a number of years to come. At present the city has signed a contract with the Edison company to furnish the juice for a period of five years. A clause in the contract gives the city the right to revoke the contract within one year of its issuance. The first year expires next July. Ninety days notice must be given the Edison company to rescind the contract.

It is contended that the upkeep of short dirt roads, between paved thoroughfares, would cost considerable. The trustees agree the better way would be to pave the streets and thus end the matter. Property values along paved highways advance with the improvement and it is contended that ultimately the property owners are really benefited. A man giving the name of C. G. Halbert, now an inmate of the county jail, wrote asking for refund of $15, paid the marshal for a peddler's license some time ago. He used the license only for a day or two, when he went up against the law for passing fictitious checks,, was convicted and sentenced to jail and since has been incarcerated in the Jackson hostelry. The trustees saw no method whereby they could refund the license fee. H. G. Ames submitted the census report of Anaheim, showing the city contains 5163 inhabitants. The report was ordered filed. In all probability, in view of the fact that Anaheim contains more than 5000, an Elks' lodge will be organized here, as one of the requirements of the fraternal order is that before a lodge can be formed in any city, the same must have an inhabitation of at least 5000. Several building permits were granted, among them being a building costing $5000, to be built on North Lemon street for the purpose of a garage. At a recent meeting a gentleman residing in the Loara district made the statement that the children of that school were in the main made sick by the odors arising from the sewerage water used for irrigation in that locality. Trustee Dwyer made a personal investigation of the matter and found that conditions did not warrant any such statement, besides Mr. Dwyer said the healthfulness of the children was of the best and that the attendance at the Loara school was really the highest of any school in the county. Trustee Cook brought up the matter of installation of wig wags at the railroad crossings, and was informed by Engineer Steward that maps desired by this fact, the trustees will temporarily defer action upon ordering Krueger street paved, desiring to pass resolutions of intention embodying as many streets as possible at one time..

Total fees collected $37.50 Sewer Inspectors' Report Applications received 6 Fees collected 15.00 Paid city 9.00 Fees retained 6.00 The city tax collector reported the sum of $29,950.59 collected for taxes for the current year. Delinquents amount to $229.96. For personal property taxes the assessor collected $1197.91. The street superintendent collected for street cleaning the sum of $330.75, and reported delinquents amounting to $8.00. The finance committee reported examination of all reports, which were found correct, and audited demands against the city in the amount of $6486.85, for which warrants were ordered drawn, divided as follows: Against general fund $5785.30, for interest $500.95; library $192.00. The street superintendent's report for work performed during the month was received and filed, as was also the report of the city electrician and manager of the power house. The city marshal was authorized to purchase an adding machine. The sum of $50 was ordered donated to the board of trade for advertising purposes. A petition signed by the First National bank and others, was received, asking that the alley in the rear of their premises, extending from South Claudina street to Lemon street, be paved. The petition was filed. The work will be ordered put in in due course of time. A communication was received from Trustee Dwyer made a personal investigation of the matter and found that conditions did not warrant any such statement, besides Mr. Dwyer said the healthfulness of the children was of the best and that the attendance at the Loara school was really the highest of any school in the county. Trustee Cook brought up the matter of installation of wig wags at the railroad crossings, and was informed by Engineer Steward that maps designating the same were being prepared and would soon be ready to send to the railroad commission, who must order them put in. There are several very dangerous railroad crossings in this city and immidate vicinity. The First National bank was given permission to install a sanitary drinking fountain in the east window of their new building on the corner of Center and Los Angeles street, the same to project eighteen inches out into the sidewalk. The old drinking fountain there is to be removed and the bank officials desire to equip one of a more modern design. City Attorney Ames asked for and was granted 1000 envelopes to be used for the city's business in the law department. The board discussed the peddlers' license situation as it now exists, several solicitors who have been working the town of late, claim to have the right to do so under the provisions of the interstate commerce commission and are not supposed to pay a city license for that privilege. Men representing an eastern tea and coffee house have been taking orders from among the housewives in this city offering premiums in so doing, but they pay no municipal license. They take the stand that since their orders are sent from their eastern house direct to consumers here they are not subject to local license. shal Kellenberger apprehended a couple of these solicitors and endeavored to collect a license from them, but they claimed they were exempt for the reason stated. The marshal took the matter up with the city attorney and was advised that if the solicitors for the eastern concern were shipping their goods here direct, in the original packages, they were not liable for the peddlers' license. However, if the goods from the eastern state, after being shipped into this state, had been unpacked and reshipped to parties here, the solicitors handling the wares would be subject to license. Whether the latter practice is being done the marshal was unable to say. He had no means of finding out, unless he intercepted the goods as they came into the state and saw that they were not disturbed in the original packages in any way. This of course he was physically unable to do. The new license ordinance, the marshal maintains, has many vexatious angles, as it relates to peddlers, and at times he confesses he is up a stump as to the best methods to pursue. Should he arrest these eastern solicitors he would be up against damage suits should they show that they came under the interstate commerce law. But should they ship their wares after their arrival in this state they would be liable for the license, but that is the question. How is he going to find that out? PLAY AT GRAND THEATRE MASTERPIECE, TO BE SHOWN NEDAY AND DAY ITS FIRST AP- SCREEN OUT- ANGELES spectacular play screen will be shown on Sunday, Monday November 24, 25 and 26. performances, as a ten each afternoon. ith's latest produc or "The Mother play has been run at AUDitorium in Los An one hundred days, crowded houses, acts signed up with cities it is neces est painters come to life. Such splendors are really beyond the power of words to describe. Accompanying the action is a remarkable musical score, played by a symphony orchestra of forty. Speaking of the performance in Los Angeles one of Thursday's papers said: D. W. Griffith's tremendous photo spectacle, "Intolerance," or "The Mother and the Law," last night celebrated its one hundredth performance at Clune's Auditorium, where it is being shown twice daily to enthusiastic audiences that tax the capacity of the playhouse. "Intolerance" will start upon its positively last week in Los Angeles Monday. The Griffith masterpiece could remain indefinitely in Los Angeles, so popular is its appeal, but booking arrangements make it necessary for the production to soon be shown in other cities. If you wish to see this great story it will probably be necessary to secure your seats ahead of time, as Manager Mozart reports that they are selling rapidly, and he cannot guarantee a seat for any of the performances on the night of the show. NEW CITY HALL PROJECT LOOKED UPON WITH FAVOR Several Leading Citizens Take up SKIPPED BY THE LIGHT OF THE MOON PROF. FRANK BURGFELD PACKED HIS GRIP AND SILENTLY STOLE AWAY THE SHERIFF IS SEARCHING FOR HIM, AND HIS BONDSMEN ARE ANXIOUS TO LEARN HIS ADDRESS The whereabouts of Prof. Frank Burgfeld, manager of the Adelheid bathhouse, is causing his bondsmen much concern and the sheriff's office considerable trouble. The professor was expected to appear in court at Santa Ana on Monday and answer for his misdeeds, but when the case was called he was conspicuous by his absence, and his bondsmen were notified that his $1000 ball was forfeit to the court, and they were expected to pungle up. A bench warrant was also issued for him and placed in the NEW CITY HALL PROJECT LOOKED UPON WITH FAVOR Several Leading Citizens Take up Question and Fail to See Why We Do Not Erect One While several of the city trustees and a bunch of citizens were toasting their shins around the coal fire in the city hall stove Thursday evening, the subject of a new city hall come up for a hearing. A man had just entered the old council chamber and remarked to the crowd present that the crack in the west wall was widening. The aperture extends from the top to the bottom of the building, and a similar defect exists in the east wall. The parapet, which adorns the second story on the Center street side, it is said, is in a dangerous condition and is liable to collapse at any time. Said one speaker: "I don't see why citizens will individually dig down into their pockets and construct new modern business blocks and then sit idly by and look upon this old worn out municipal building. It is certainly not a credit to the city from an architectural viewpoint. What's the matter with starting the ball rolling for a new home for the City of Anaheim," concluded the speaker. Others voiced similar views and the proposition was then and there made unanimous. A nice municipal park would also be a good venture for the city to take up at this time, were the sentiments of one of the group of boosters. This town is going along with leaps and bounds, the speaker said, has 5200 inhabitants in its 1½ square miles of territory, has the best paved streets in the county and still has one of the worst looking city halls for many miles around. It is not at all improbable that an agitation for a new municipal building with suitable parks will again soon be launched, and many are of the opinion that if only the people would cooperate the enterprise could be had as easily as falling off a log. CHRISTMAS PRESENT FOR TELE- Burgfeld, manager of the Adelheid bathhouse, is causing his bondsmen much concern and the sheriff's office considerable trouble. The professor was expected to appear in court at Santa Ana on Monday and answer for his misdeeds, but when the case was called he was conspicuous by his absence, and his bondsmen were notified that his $1000 bail was forfeit to the court, and they were expected to pungle up. A bench warrant was also issued for him and placed in the hands of the sheriff. Following the death of Rev. S. H. Luhring, who died suddenly at his home after taking treatment at the bathhouse, a complaint was sworn to by Dr. De Vinney, charging him with practicing medicine without a license. The State Medical association caused his arrest, but he was released in justice court on putting up a $500 bond. Five days later he was again arrested on a more serious charge. Mrs. Mary Panther issued a complaint to the effect that he was having improper relations with her 19-year-old daughter, Martha Panther, and that the girl was in a delicate condition. He had difficulty in procuring a bond this time, which was fixed at $500, and he spent a week in the county jail before friends came to his rescue and released him. It is supposed Burgfeld made his getaway Tuesday night. Patrons who went to the bathhouse Wednesday found the lights burning throughout the house but the doors were locked. A placard on the front door stated that he would return in fifteen minutes. The lights continued to burn throughout the day and Wednesday night, but the professor failed to show up. Thursday morning H. V. Weisel, his attorney, was notified of the situation. He went down to the bath house and turned out the lights. It was found that Burgfeld had drawn all his balance from the bank, consequently it was apparent that he had laid his plans to disappear and escape punishment for his actions. Both the cases were on the docket in superior court for Monday, and at 10 o'clock when they were called he was not present and his attorney explained the situation. The court immediately issued a bench warrant and placed it in the hands of the sheriff. But the professor was far away. Nobody has any definite idea where he went. Speculation has it that he went north, east, south and west, but Burgfeld is the only man who knows. Burgfeld came to Anaheim from San CHRISTMAS PRESENT FOR TELEPHONE EMPLOYEES The Executive Committee of the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph company on Friday, December 15, authorized the payment of a bonus to its employees which follows in a general way the plan for employees in the Bell system announced from New York by President Vall, of the American Telephone and Telegraph company. The details have not yet been worked out but in general the distribution will amount to the equivalent of three weeks' salary to employees who have been in the service for more than one year and who receive less than $3000 per year. Employees who have been in the service between three months and one year will receive the equivalent to two weeks' salary. Employees receiving over $3000, but less than $5000 per year, will also participate in the bonus but not in the same proportion with those receiving lesser rates of pay. All the schools of Orange county are closed for the holiday vacation, and nearly all the teachers are attending the county institute being held at Santa Ana this week. The attendance on Monday was 403. In the program Miss Clara Munger of this city is on for reading, Miss Mary Ross for a paper on modern languages, and Miss Helen Sloane on music and vocal selections. Both the cases were on the docket in superior court for Monday, and at 10 o'clock when they were called he was not present and his attorney explained the situation. The court immediately issued a bench warrant and placed it in the hands of the sheriff. But the professor was far away. Nobody has any definite idea where he went. Speculation has it that he went north, east, south and west, but Burgfeld is the only man who knows. Burgfeld came to Anaheim from San Diego five years ago and leased the bathhouse of Mrs. A. Konig. After running it a short time he gave it up and took a position at the sanitarium, having charge of the bath department. He did not remain long in his position, but again leased the baths. The lease does not expire for two years. Mrs. Konig was in town Monday and states she will file action to have the lease cancelled. H. V. Weisel, who acted as his attorney, declares he is more anxious to see him brought back and punished for betraying the friends who kept him out of jail by signing his bond, than to see him convicted of the offense with which he was charged. Clarence Wilson, Bob Wilson's son of Anaheim, after he graduated from Stanford, became compiler for the Interstate Commerce Commission. His business is to figure out the quantities for the physical valuation of the various railways. He has been home on a short visit and left Wednesday morning for Alburgueque, via Salt Lake and Pueblo, to resume his work. J. P. Ranson of the Meyer apartments, Santa Ana, was driving his car along the county road just at the city limits of Fullerton, when his car skidded, and turned topside down, with the wheels in the air. He suffered a bruised right knee.
