Miss Helen Carhart, daughter of Mayor Carhart of Fullerton, was married in this city Saturday to Stewart Miller of La Mirada, Rev. C. R. Messias performing the ceremony. The young couple will spend their honey-moon at the beaches. An Anaheim woman has just received a letter from a son in Montana from whom she has not heard in 34 years. "This" wrote the son, "is the first chance I've had to write, I've been so busy." Mr. and Mrs. Anton Schulte were in town this week meeting many friends. Mrs. Schulte was formerly Mrs. Adelheid Konig one of the most prominent residents of this city. Mr. and Mrs. Schulte will make their home in Anaheim. H. A. Nelson of Houston, Texas, has been engaged as operator at the Mason theatre. Mr. Nelson is an expert operator and will give the Mason audiences good service. Mrs. L. B. Holbrook of Chicago, who has been visiting for several weeks with her mother, Mrs. M. J. Casteel and brother, E. N. Cook, left Saturday for her home.

James Sutherland took a party of friends to the races in Los Angeles Sunday. Twin sons were born to Mr. and Mrs. Robert Johnston at the sanitarium Tuesday afternoon. Announcement is made of the marriage of Miss Emma C. Pfeninger, a well known young lady of this region to Fred M. Larrimore of Los Angeles. The wedding took place on Tuesday, February 28. Mr. Larrimore is a retired real estate man and property owner. The couple will make their home in Los Angeles. John Ohm visited the Orange Show at San Bernardino the first of last week, and after seeing the sights also made a visit to Redlands and Yucaipi. Mr. Ohm owns an apple ranch in the Yucaipi valley, and states that the prospect for a bumper crop this year is good. Alfred Hansen was in town this week from his ranch west of Hansen station. He is one of the successful bean raisers in the west country and disposed of the bulk of his crop at 7 cents. He has a quantity of seed beans remaining, which are quoted at from 12 to 14 cents. Alfred's bank account is large and beautiful and is getting more so every day. Through fingerprint records sent to Leavenworth prison by Deputy Sheriff Maxwell, information has been received here showing that Dave Clairmoor who was sentenced to four years in San Quentin for burglary at Fulerton served a two-year term in Oklahoma under the name of Frank Roberts. He got out of prison on December 20, and was arrested on January 27. The road leading from Northam station to Buena Park is complained of as Mr. Nelson is an expert operator and will give the Mason audiences good service. Mrs. L. B. Holbrook of Chicago, who has been visiting for several weeks with her mother, Mrs. M. J. Casteel and brother, E. N. Cook, left Saturday for her home. Mrs. Casteel, who suffered a stroke of paralysis some months ago, has entirely recovered. Sebastian Aspyetta, a box maker, of Olive, received a compound fracture of his right ankle, when he was thrown from his motor cycle, after coming in contact with a machine driven by Wm. Chambers, on East Center street Sunday morning. In falling his right leg was caught under the motor cycle, causing the fracture, pieces of bone protruding through the flesh. The young man was sent to the county hospital. Aspyetta was going fast on his way to Olive and collided with the Chambers car, as the latter was turning into North Philadelphia street. Another machine going west on Center served to mix up the situation, and Aspyetta evidently lost control of his motor and swerved to the left, getting between the two cars. Judging from the motor cycle tracks upon the pavement he tried to cut around Chambers, when the accident occurred. If he had continued straight ahead on the right side of the street he would have been safe, and why he should have turned as he did is a mystery. According to eyewitnesses, no one seems to be blamed, and it is believed the injured man evidently became confused and lost control of his motor, thereby causing the mix up. Mrs. Jack Burkhart was a business visitor in Los Angeles Thursday. John Richards of Olive was a business visitor in town Monday. Leavenworth prison by Deputy Sheriff Maxwell, information has been received here showing that Dave Clairmoor who was sentenced to four years in San Quentin for burglary at Fullerton served a two-year term in Oklahoma under the name of Frank Roberts. He got out of prison on December 20, and was arrested on January 27. The road leading from Northam station to Buena Park is complained of as being in an almost impassable condition. Heavy beet wagons have literally cut the pavement away and residents of that section say it is as good as nothing. Supervisor Schumacher informs us that this stretch of roadway will be repaired at once. Morales & Bustanente have remodeled their restaurant on North Los Angeles street, by putting in a horse-shoe counter. They desire larger quarters but owing to building restrictions in that block are unable to enlarge the premises, and in order to accommodate their customers put in the new counter, thereby acquiring more seating capacity.

Servatious made a business trip to Los Angeles Thursday. John B. Anderson of Long Beach, formerly of Manhattan, Kansas, was a business visitor in town Monday. Mr. Anderson is an old time friend of Frank Davis. F. C. Krause, Gerald Simpson, F. A. Yungbluth, A. Bayless, Fred A. Backs, John Ziegler, Mr. Elliott and Mr. Theodore and others attended the associated chambers of commerce at Westminster Wednesday evening. Property owners in the Westminster section are reclaiming much of the lowlands, by providing suitable drainage. Ditches are dug along the roads and through the tracts of land in order that surplus water may be carried off. Land thus treated becomes more suitable for agricultural purposes, and of course is greatly enhanced in value. Formerly many acres in that section was classed as alkali land and comparatively worthless, but in recent years these acres have been planted to sugar beets, which had a tendency to gradually decrease the alkaline properties. F. C. Krause generously placed his Hudson Super-Six at the disposal of his friends to make the trip to Westminster the other evening in order to attend the meeting of the associated chambers of commerce. With Mr. Krause at the wheel a person was made to feel as though they were gliding along upon glass, and to ride At a recent meeting of the Anaheim board of trade J. W. Duckworth made complaint against the partiality—upon the part of D. W. McDannalds, county paid booster located in Los Angeles—as shown by that gentleman to a certain section of the county, when piloting intending home builders hitherward. Mr. Duckworth said upon one occasion, while temporarily visiting in Santa Ana, he ran full tilt into a real estater, who was just then on his way to the depot to meet six newcomers, all in a bunch, who were being sent down to the county seat town for a look around. And it is said that when once a Santa Ana real estater sets his lamps upon a tenderfoot, there is no get-away possible for the refugee. Another man at the meeting held here said he would take an oath that so far as he could remember never had a newcomer been sent to this city by the county booster. Things became warm and the delegates to the associated chambers were instructed to protest, and put pep in it. That had been done, but at the last meeting of the chambers, actuated by soft words of a far-north-end county delegate, who stated Mac was fair, the proverbial coat of whitewash was administered and action upon the complaint was pigeon-holed. Through purchase of his partner's interest in the business, A. B. Watson has become sole proprietor of the Crown stage line, operating a large string of auto stages from Santa Ana to the beaches, Orange, Anaheim, Fullerton, and Los Angeles. Mr. Watson is the pioneer "Jitney" man in Orange county, having operated stages continuously for several years, and has made a marked success. E. L. Deacon, who became a member of the firm in October, 1915, retires from the Anaheim was well represented at the auto races in Los Angeles Sunday, a large number of Anaheim people being noted among the crowd. Mrs. Lizzie Criss has asked for letters of administration on the estate of Albert Davis, who died February 25, H. V. Weisel being her attorney. The estate is valued at $5000. Supervisor Wm. Schumacher of Buena Park attended the meeting of the associated chambers of commerce at Westminster Wednesday evening. Mr. and Ms. Leon Porter loaded up their household effects Monday and moved to Los Angeles. In the sale of his ranch recently Mr. Porter took a residence property in the city as part payment, and they decided to occupy it. Lucien Wisser has disposed of his Stutz racer and purchased a more domesticated Buick. It is said that "Pete" contemplates a trip on the sea of matrimony and the deck of a racing car is not the best place to take the family out for an airing. Anaheim people are determined to do their share toward reducing the high cost of living. Vacant lots and patches of ground in all sections of the city are being stirred up and turned into vegetable gardens. But there are many other lots that are still permitted to produce their wild growth that might be utilized. A patch of mustard, with its yellow flowers and green foliage may be pleasing to the eye, but it is not as profitable as a potato patch—or onions. Why permit a lot to lie idle when, with very little effort it could be made to produce a crop that would yield a respectable bank account Monday transact party of Angeles F. C. Krause generously placed his Hudson Super-Six at the disposal of his friends to make the trip to Westminster the other evening in order to attend the meeting of the associated chambers of commerce. With Mr. Krause at the wheel a person was made to feel as though they were gliding along upon glass, and to ride in the superb car is a decided pleasure, especially to those who have become accustomed to the jitney. The good people of Westminster has habitably entertained the orange county associated chambers of commerce a few evenings ago and the hand of good fellowship extended was of the kind that leaves a lasting impression. While Westminster may not have grown as fast as some other sections of the county it is renowned for the fertility of its soil and bountiful crops are always harvested there. In the adjacent peatlands the finest celery in the world is raised, to say nothing of many other crops that grow to perfection in the prolific soil. Besides her over abundance of products Westminster can lay claim to also having some of the prettiest girls in the Southland. It has been suggested that when the new president of the associated chambers of commerce takes his office that he strictly confine speakers to a limited space of time—say five minutes. It would appear that a man should be able to state his case clearly within that time. Upon several occasions of late spectators have had a tendency to acquire bad cases of gapes while listening to some of the spellbinders, besides these unlimited forensic efforts draw the meetings out too long, and makes it bad for some of the attendants who have acquired the habit of "hitting the hay" at an early hour. The United States civil service commission announces that on March 24, an examination will be held here, as a result of which it is expected to make certification to fill a contemplated vacancy in the position of fourth class postmaster at Buena Park. The compensation of the postmaster at this office was $739 for the last fiscal year. G. W. Hamler has purchased the Resh building on East Center street through the agency of the Henderson interest in the business, A. B. Watson has become sole proprietor of the Crown stage line, operating a large string of auto stages from Santa Ana to the beaches, Orange, Anahiem, Fullerton, and Los Angeles. Mr. Watson is the pioneer "jitney" man in Orange county, having operated stages continuously for several years, and has made a marked success. E. L. Deacon, who became a member of the firm in October, 1915, retires from the business and has not as yet announced his plans for the future. H. D. Polhemus of this city has been chosen by the Union Oil Co. to fill the position of electrician and telephone engineer recently made vacant by the resignation of R. D. Magee. The position entails considerable responsibility and demands the service of a man who is up on everything electrical, and it is believed that the young Anaheim man will fill the position in a creditable manner. Clara M. Martin, formerly Clara Bittner, has brought suit against Nicholas Bittner for judgment on an old judgment of $476.75, entered in 1912. With interest, judgment of $644.15 is now asked. Tipton and Callor of Anaheim are attorneys for the plaintiff, who was formerly the defendant's wife. Fred Deakin, who has just recovered from a badly damaged foot, which became injured while he was engaged in presswork in a Santa Ana printing office, was visiting in town on Saturday. The accident happened about two weeks ago and Fred being now fully recovered he returned to work again on Monday. Prof. E. W. Hauck, principal of the Fullerton high school, attended the Westminster meeting of the associated chambers of commerce. Prof. Hauck is taking keen interest in the election of Mr. Krause as president of the organization, and was interviewing a number of delegates in the interest of that gentleman's candidacy. A. C. Hupp, secretary-treasurer of the Western Reinforced Concrete Pipe company, was in town from Los Angeles on a business mission Saturday. This is the company that secured the contract for building the new siphons for the Anaheim Union Water company. An auto driven by a lady from Placentia struck a light rig driven by a plasano, at the intersection of Los Angeles and Center streets, on Sunday afternoon. The Mex. was headed west on Center street, on the right hand side of the road and essayed to loop the silent sentinel, turning to the left do so. Just then the auto, headed north on Los Angeles, hove into view and banged into the caretta, putting it out of commission. The Mexican was heaved out hastily, but sustained no injury so far as could be learned, but may develop some internal alliment later on. The driver of the auto gave instructions to have the rig repaired, and journeyed on her way, while the Mexican gathered up the kindling wood and led off the old gray mare, with the remnants of the buggy trailing behind. Caramba. A. S. Bradford of Placentia, was highly complimented at the recent meeting of the associated chambers of commerce for the splendid manner in which he supervised the exhibit of citrus fruits sent by Orange county to the National Orange Show at San Bernardino. To his indefatigable efforts and personal attention given to the county's interests at the show much is due, and notwithstanding the fact that he met with keen competition in the display of fruits from sections famous for their high standard of efficiency in raising oranges, Mr. Bradford succeeded in annexing many of the best prizes. To show how keen this competition became it may be stated that in judging the fine qualities of grape fruit on display, the contest finally dropped to two localities—that sent by the Lindsey growers and that furnished by Orange county. The fruit was so near equal, that the judges sorted to their sense of taste. After sampling both, the judges awarded the prize to this county, it being declared the fruit was absolutely perfect. The United States civil service commission announces that on March 24, an examination will be held here, as a result of which it is expected to make certification to fill a contemplated vacancy in the position of fourth class postmaster at Buena Park. The compensation of the postmaster at this office was $739 for the last fiscal year. G. W. Hamler has purchased the Resh building on East Center street through the agency of the Henderson Realty company. The consideration is not given.

Phil received his appointment from Marshal Kellenberger, and has been a good and faithful guardian of the peace at all times. He has had some exciting experiences here in gathering in law breakers, and bad hombres, but knows no such word as fear, and always lands his man. Upon one occasion a Mexican whom he went after to arrest, took several shots at him, but Phil did not care for that and soon had his man behind the bars. Before coming to this city Phil served upon the police force in St. Louis, and was always held in high esteem by his superior officers.
