When W. E. Alexander took charge of the Union Brewing plant last October, he immediately drew up plans for enlarging the buildings and adding a White Ribbon beer as one of the products. The new building is completed and machinery will be installed immediately. The output will be increased to 100 barrels per day, half of this being the famous Anaheim beer, which has a high reputation wherever it is sold, and the other half will be White Ribbon. This is a temperance drink and is put up under a patented process. It looks and tastes like the standard beer, but contains no alcohol.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Next Tuesday evening, January 30th occurs the annual banquet of the Anaheim board of trade, and according to present indications the occasion will be one long to be remembered. These annual gatherings of the civic organization are looked forward to with keen interest, at which time an accounting is taken as to the city progress, during the past twelvemonth, and new hopes and energies outlined for fulfillment during the year just dawning. It is commendable that citizens of any town should thus yearly congregate for an interchange of ideas that are for the best interests of all. The coming event promises to eclipse all previous efforts and as the ladies of the Eastern Star will prepare the banquet it is a foregone conclusion that the inner man will be amply provided for.
John Reuther reports that the Anaheim Beef & Provision company is taxed to capacity to fill orders. Extensive improvements at the plant north of town are in contemplation and work will be rushed to an early completion. The local company in the past has had trying times with outside concerns, controlled by the meat trusts, who tried to put the local concern out of business by price cutting. But through sound business sagacity the home company weathered the storm and is now enjoying a floodtide of prosperity, for which every person in Anaheim feels glad.

Fred Pressel two or three years ago ran a silver of steel into his left hand and thereby contracted a severe case of blood poisoning. Medical aid was summoned and while the poison was checked his hand, on account of the incisions made to remove the poisoned blood, has remained in a cramped condition, the fingers being drawn that he cannot close the hand, the member being practically helpless. The hand seems to be devoid of a proper circulation, and while there is an absence of pain, Mr. Pressel is at a loss to account for the strange condition in which his hand remains. He will leave soon for an eastern hospital where he will go in a final effort seeking relief.
B. D. McAlvay took a spin over to Corona a few days ago looking for a man whom he says he is very anxious to get eyes upon. The fellow proved himself to be dishonest in a business transaction while here, and Mac having heard that the fellow happened in at Corona he lost no time in hiking over to the inland town to look up his quarry, but the bird had flown. Mac had blood in his eye and it is a safe bet if he had laid hands on the man he would have made him come through, or bust a hame-bar.

There were forty-eight persons present, and the cook of the cafe put up a sumptuous banquet, turkey being the most popular dish. At the close of the banquet the party adjourned to the club rooms in the Masonic temple where the balance of the evening was spent in playing games.
That was a fine idea advanced by probably the highest salaried laborers in the United States today are the motion picture actors and actresses. It was announced a day or two ago that Douglas Fairbanks had severed his connection with the Triangle company at Los Angeles, and accepted a job with a New York firm at a salary of $16,000 per week, which aggregates $780,000 a year. This of itself is of little interest to Anaheim people, but it is also stated that Miss Anita Loos will give up her job with the Griffith company and go east with him. Miss Loos is one of the cleverest scenario writers in Los Angeles. She has written most of the plays that have made Fairbanks famous. She is the daughter of R. Beers Loos, a former newspaper man of Anaheim and made several visits to this city while her father was living here. She has a number of friends and acquaintances here who are interested in her career. Mr. Fairbanks accompanied her on her visits a number of times.
Prof. J. F. Walker of Flagstaff, Ariz., came in last week to attend the funeral of his father, John L. Walker, which was held at Backs & Terry's undertaking parlors Wednesday afternoon. Mr. Walker was 83 years of age. He was born in Aberdeen, Scotland, in 1833, and came to America at the age of eight years. For thirty-five years he was a minister in the M. E. church, but was superannuated in 1902.
At a recent gathering of boosters, who were seated at a banquet table discussing the tempting viands upon the menu, a wag looking down the row of local celebrities espied one who was shy a considerable quantity of the hirsute adornment upon his pate. The wag ventured the assertion that the highbrow had better have a rabbit painted upon the bald spot for then he could refer to his hare, and everybody within hearing laughed.
Reports from all the citrus sections of Southern California indicate that the orange shipments this year will reach 37,000 cars, and that 7815 cars of lemons will be harvested. G.W.

With prices touching the highest mark in years, growers of early cabbage in the Fullerton district face the prospect of realizing a nadnsome profit this year. In past years cold storage cabbage in the East has kept the prices down with the result that growing early cabbage there has been discouraged until only a small acreage has been devoted to it at times. This year, however, the East is short even of cold storage cabbage and there has been a consequent heavy demand for the early product from the West. Although the cold weather will retard the cabbage crop somewhat, no injury has resulted. A Los Angeles buyer was at Fullerton the past week, offering $60 a ton for new crop cabbage. This is the best offer that has been made in fifteen or twenty years.
Three persons, all of Orange, had a narrow escape from death Sunday afternoon when their speeding car went into the ditch on the Newport road near Harper, turning completely over. The occupants were thrown out as the car lunged, and escaped with minor injuries. Lenz Goddickson, of McPherson, drives of the car was the most serious hurt, receiving severe bruises on the chest and back. He is at his home. Earl Granger got a sprained knee, and Miss Helen Vaughn, the third occupant of the car, escaped without injury. Young Goddickson is the son of Peter Goddickson, nurseryman of Orange. While the members of the party were being taken to town for treatment, thieves are said to have visited the stranded car, taking the magneto and storage batteries.
That was a fine idea advanced by Rev. Messias at the Thursday lunch wherein he suggested that the Anaheim board of trade cooperate with the public schools of this city and start an era of flower and vegetable planting upon vacant lots within the city. The practice would instill in the minds of the boys and girls ideas along horticultural lines and would be of inestimable value to the juveniles. It would teach them how to make the soil productive and in other ways be educational. Rev. Messias suggested that prizes be offered for the best products raised among a varied list of useful foodstuffs in the vegetable category. Thus the children would be spurred on to excel each other and also create intense interest in their work. It would occupy their minds when out of school and as Rev. Messias says would afford them object lessons from which they would profit in the years to come.
Many applications for new street lights have been received by the city council, and they are being granted as fast as conditions will permit. It is the intention of the trustees to have an electric light on every street corner in town, but it will take a little time to accomplish this much desired improvement. Many outlying streets are at present inadequately littered and for safety first devices if for no other the council will see to it that all streets in the city are properly illuminated.
Reports from all the citrus sections of Southern California indicate that the orange shipments this year will reach 37,000 cars, and that 7815 cars of lemons will be harvested. G. W. Sandilands estimates that Anaheim will ship 850 cars. Fullerton, according to C. C. Chapman, will ship 800 cars of oranges and 25 cars of lemons, while Mr. Bradford reports 1250 cars of oranges at Placentia and 50 cars of lemons.
Floyd Scott of Omak, Washington, came in last Wednesday on a visit to his grandfather, J. B. Root. He will also spend some time at Blythe, in the Palo Verde valley, visiting with his uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. William Root. Captain Root had not seen his grandson for thirteen years when he was considerably younger than he is now, but the young man failed to fool the Captain when he accosted him as a stranger.

MISMANAGEMENT CHARGED AGAINST MORTGAGE COMPANY
Orange County People Ask Court to Appoint Receiver
Charges of mismanagement of the affairs of the Bankers' Bond and Mortgage company, a local $1,000,000 corporation, are set forth in a complaint filed in the superior court asking the appointment of a receiver, an accounting and the removal of President H. C. Williams, Secretary Emory C. Brace and Director B. A. Hayden.
This company is involved in two actions that are to be tried in Orange county. In one of the actions J. J. Ortega of Placentia is defendant and in the other John O. Forster of San Juan Capistrano is defendant. They are sued in attempts to make them pay off notes given by them as security for the payment for stock in the company subscribed by them. It is understood that the defendants will fight payment on the ground that the affairs of the company were not correctly represented when the sales were made.
The allegations contained in the sixty-page complaint filed in Los Angeles by Attorneys Flint and Jutten and Thomas Ball, on behalf of a number of stockholders of the company are practically the same made in the suit tried in the Los Angeles Federal court, in which a receivership was asked. The former suit was decided in favor of the defendants.
Among the charges made in the Los Angeles complaint are that Williams and Brace expended corporation money for cigars, entertainment and traveling expenses, from which the corporation got no benefit. It is charged that during their administration the company's capital has been impaired $100,000.
Brace is said to be in Chicago and Williams could not be located to make a statement.
Samuel Hill, the well known pioneer West side rancher, was in town Monday morning.
J. N. Anderson, William Mannheim and John Benleke have been appointed to appraise the estate of Rev. S. J. Luhring, who died some months ago in this city.
A delightful party was given at the home of Miss Fern Quarton, on South Claudina street, on Friday evening. The party was given in honor of the young lady by a Sunday school class of the Methodist church.
Herman Stern and Pete Nicolas upon their recent visit to Tia Juana returned home with a poor estimation of the law abiding qualities of the people of that point. While they were viewing the sights where the roulette wheel has full swing, leaving their autos standing outside, thieves abstracted their overcoats, laprobes and every other article of value that they could lay their hands onto. Mr. Stern said he was glad they left the auto, and upon taking their departure for home resolved to give the Mexican Monte Carlo a wide birth in the future.
