PRETTY WEDDING AT ST. MICHAEL'S CHURCH Miss Madeline Whitaker and Ralph W. Maas United in Marriage At St. Michael's church at 1 o'clock Saturday, Miss Madeline Whitaker was united in marriage to Ralph W. Maas, Rev. G. R. Messias performing the ceremony, a number of friends of the bride and groom being present. The church was beautifully decorated for the occasion with pink and white roses, palms and ferns. The bride was attended by Miss Alice Robinson, the groom being supported by his brother, George Maas. When the bridal party entered Miss Ada Brown of Los Angeles sang "O, Promise Me," while Mrs. J. W. Wallop accompanied her on the piano. The young couple left after receiving the congratulations of their friends for a honeymoon trip into the mountains. The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Whitaker. For years she has been stamp clerk at the post office where she has transacted business with practically all the people of Anaheim, and through her genial and accommodating disposition has made herself extremely popular. The groom is a son of Mr. and Mrs. A. H. Maas, and is a clerk at the Southern Counties bank. Hearty congratulations are extended to the young couple by their numerous friends. NEW YORK PICNIC Just listen to the call for all who ever lived in the state of New York, to meet under the auspices of the New York state society of Southern California, for an all day picnic reunion in Sycamore Grove, Los Angeles, Saturday, May 26th. Come as early as you can and spend the day with your old home friends. We will army can pass!" Now the road is wide and safe, cut sometimes out of solid rock, but it is a highway in a very true sense. There is not a mile of this journey that does not hold interest. The curving mountain road winds through canyons, tortuous and high walled, over steep summit ridges and along the verge of tremendous precipices that sink sheer for hundreds of feet below. Gaunt buttes and mighty mesas, weird gardens of contorted cactus growth, deformed hills as strange as the hills of the moon, cliff dwellings of forgotten peoples, the mirror bright waters of an inland sea, a rock-walled canyon through which surges a great river, the Roosevelt Dam, the flourishing farms of Salt River Valley reclaimed from the desert—this is a land infinitely varied in terrain, aglow with color, filled with the sunny glamor of romance. Always the scenery is unusual, fascinating, possessing a richness of detail possible only in the clear atmosphere of Arizona. Every line of the landscape is distinctly marked; peaks a hundred miles away stand out sharply against the tinted sky. The Apache Trail, most ancient highway on our continent, winds through a region of romance, a land rich in legendry and historic association. Well may this be called Oldest America, for men have traversed the route since remotest time. What a strange procession they would make, what a colorful pageant, the peoples who have passed this way through all the centuries. In the dim ages before the dawn of history came the rude cliff dwellers, forgotten now save for those ruined fortress homes that hang like swallows' nests in the niches of the canyon wall. Swarming down the highland passes marched the ancient Toilets, on their way to Casa Grande and far southward to found a mighty empire in Mexico.

In the dim ages before the dawn of history came the rude cliff dwellers, forgotten now save for those ruined fortress homes that hang like swallows' nests in the niches of the canyon wall. Swarming down the highland passes marched the ancient Toltecs, on their way to Casa Grande and far southward to found a mighty empire in Mexico. And along this same highway rode in 1540 the vanguard of the white intruders—the gallant bright armored conquistadores of Vasquez de Coronado, seeking after the fabulous Seven Cities of Clibola, with their treasure houses of gold and turquoise. No less stout hearted were the humble missionaries who wandered here afoot, sombre robed Jesuits and Franciscans, ready to do battle for the souls of pagans. Then hardy American pioneers—hawk eyed frontiersmen in buckskin, pathfinders and scouts, red shirted miners and dashing blue clad cavalrymen, splendid in their courage, resourceful in conflict. And against all these were arrayed the wildest and fiercest of Indian tribesmen, the Tonto Apaches and their dreaded kindred, come all the way from the cold, bleak steppes of Athabasca; and to them through many years this ancient trail belonged by right of might. Here was the warpath along which the Apache renegados set out upon their bloody forays and at their head galloped battlechiefs whose very names inspired terror—Cochise and Mangas Colorado and Geronimo, ever waging relentless warfare against invaders of their mountain realm.

THE APACHE TRAIL OF ARIZONA When the United States government decided to construct a great retaining dam on the headwaters if the Salt River in Arizona, to make possible the irrigation of thousands of fertile acres about Phoenix, it was found necessary to build a road into one of the wildest, most picturesque regions of the Southwest. The route for such a highway had already been skillfully chosen. Through these rugged fastnesses wound the broad war-path of the Apaches, and for many miles the new road followed the course beaten out centuries before by hosts of barbaric riders. Thus it comes that the splendid highway which leads from Globe to Phoenix, a distance of 120 miles, is famed as the Apache Trail. Where once fierce lance brandishing braves went war faring, today Southern Pacific tourists are bourne safely along in smooth riding automobiles. Crooked as the trail of the fox was the trail of the Apaches, and surely these wily strategists had uttered before the Corsican that resolute maxim, "Where a goat can set his foot, an Anaheim Gazette business under the name of the Lais Trading & Developing Company. The chief products of his plantation are coconuts, manila hemp and rubber. Harry Upham and Harry Cooper, two Orange men who went to the islands about the time he did are doing fine. Cooper has a large wholesale implement business at Manilla and Upham is at Bagulo, where he is captain of the constabulary. "The Philippine Islands offer vast possibilities to United States energy and capital," said Peabody in an interview. "It has been demonstrated rubber can be grown in some portions of the islands in commercial quantities and at a good profit. American capital has been going into rubber development in the Malaya states, and when these countries commence placing embargoes, Americans who have invested there will wish they had turned their efforts in the developing of the rubber industry in the Philippines. There are now only five rubber plantations in the islands, one of which is mine. I produce about five tons a year and the other plantation in the province of Lai produces about twenty five tons. We plant Castillo rubber trees, which are not as heavy producers as para trees, but they seem to thrive better. Para rubber is produced in some sections, however. My trees produce about one pound of rubber per year. "There is a good field for development of the cocoanut and hemp industries. We produce about one ton of copra per acre, and at present market prices make $75 per ton above the cost of producing and marketing. Copra is the dried meat of cocoanuts from which the oil is extracted. The islands have been greatly neglected by U.S. capital. There is hardly a limit to the possibilities and the man with wealth and energy will take no chances when he invests there." "The only effect of the war we have felt has been in the matter of trans- the Santa Fe and build with the understanding that the Santa Fe will build to this packing house in time to move next year's citrus crop. Another association is being formed at Orchardale with the same understanding with the Santa Fe and will choose their site in the Archardale tract. The larger part of the highest price right of way will have been bought by the time the Santa Fe gets to Legging-well ranch on the southeast side of the Pacific Electric and although there will be many strips where the right of way will be as expensive as in the section between Los Nietos and Leffingwell, the greater part would be much cheaper and it is thought entirely probable that the Santa Fe will connect with the Richfield-Olinda line when its builds into the valley. TAXPAYERS' LEAGUE HAS SLIM ATTENDANCE Only Four Members Present, but They Transact Business The Orange County Taxpayers' League does not appear to be growing very rapidly in popularity—at least it is not enlarging the attendance at its meetings. At the regular session Saturday on any four members were present, even Chairman Jackman being absent on account of illness. A chairman was chosen, however, and the four proceeded to business. Secretary Mills reported that the board of supervisors had declined to call an election for the selection of freeholders to draw up a proposal as a charter for this county. He did not at all agree with the statement of the supervisors that other counties using special charters had found them to be failures. He advocated a change by charter that would do away with the office of tax collector. He said that excepting for two months in the first complete train to be run to Whittier over the new Salt Lake extension from Pico station toward the south. This train is under the direct control of the agricultural colleges of the three states and carries out the wishes of the United States government in its system for distributing information that will aid in the nation's preparedness. The exhibits carried by the train, and the educational meetings to be held, all lead to one subject, that of inducing the farmers and owners of land to use every possible endeavor toward the increase of crops on land now under cultivation and to further urge them to materially increase their areas of cultivated soils. ASHLEY HELD TO ANSWER IN SUPERIOR COURT La Habra Gasoline Dealer Charged With Buying Stolen Goods Justice Cox Thursday afternoon ordered H. F. Ashley, owner of a filling station at La Habra, held to answer for trial in the superior court on a charge of receiving stolen gasoline. Three drivers for the Puente Oil company testified that they were engaged in hauling oil from Brea to Los Angeles, and they said that they sold gasoline to Ashley at a low figure. In arguing in favor of dismissing the case, Attorney Estebo of Los Angeles declared that some of the men testifying against Ashley have not yet been proceeded against criminally by the Puente Oil company. Ashley admits that he bought some gasoline from the drivers. He said they told him that when the started from Brea they filled their wagons. In the heat of the day the gasoline would expand, and spill over, and they told Ashley they wanted to sell him some cheap to save it from being wasted. We produce about one ton of copra per acre, and at present market prices make $75 per ton above the cost of producing and marketing. Copra is the dried meat of cocoanuts from which the oil is extracted. The islands have been greatly neglected by U.S. capital. There is hardly a limit to the possibilities and the man with wealth and energy will take no chances when he invests there. "The only effect of the war we have felt has been in the matter of transportation. Freight rates on water transportation from my place to Manila, a seven day trip, has increased 250 per cent since the war. Transportation from Manila to the states has been short and to European points is still worse. Before the war the majority of our cocoanuts went to France and Germany. A large portion is still going to these countries but most of the crop is moving this way. CAPTAIN LEEDS ON DUTY AGAIN Construction of the Newport Harbor jetty will have to go forward under the supervision of the firm of Leeds & Barnard, engineers, without the personal supervision of Captain Charles T. Leeds, who was appointed engineer of the county harbor commission and then selected by Newport city as the jetty engineer. Some time ago Captain Leeds was called to the colors in the engineering corps, and announcement is made that he has just been appointed district engineer and president of the examining board for the district of Los Angeles and San Diego, with headquarters in Los Angeles, which will be good news to his many local friends. In this position he succeeds Maj. George B. Pillsbury, who is assigned to duty at the Presidio, San Francisco. Leeds' new duties are to have charge of the Los Angeles harbor work, the fortifications, and the enlisting of men in the engineers' reserve corps. A regiment of engineers formed under his direction it is said is destined to be among the first American units sent to the battle front in France. SANTA FE WILL BUILD BRANCH TO LA HABRA Will Tap the Oil and New Citrus Region Secretary Mills reported that the board of supervisors had declined to call an election for the selection of freeholders to draw up a proposal as a charter for this county. He did not at all agree with the statement of the supervisors that other counties using special charters had found them to be failures. He advocated a change by charter that would do away with the office of tax collector. He said that excepting for two months in the year this county has no more use for a tax collector than it has for a rail road to the moon. His work could just as well be done by the treasurer, said Mills. He said a charter would save a lot of courthouse salaries. H. Clay Kellogg met with the League and explained the work on Sulphur Slide. BURGLAR PAUSES IN WORK TO EAT LUNCHEON Stanton Stores Again Raided by Midnight Prowler A midnight picnic luncheon eaten between burglaries marked a visit paid to Stanton Monday night by men who evidently are the same who have entered stores at Olive, Buena Park and other places in this county. The thief was not going to work hard without being properly refreshed and sustained, according to his own ideas on the wet and dry question. He carried a bottle of beer with him. The store was expected to furnish the rest of the meal, and it did, without any charge being made on the books for the service. The burglar came in a buggy. He visited two places at Stanton. One was J. C. Whalley's store, in which the post office is located. Here the thief prodded around the shelves, but found little to his liking. He braved Uncle Sam's displeasure, and entered the portion of the store set apart for the mail. There he found a few stamps and these he carried away. Entrance to this place was gained by prying open a window with a piece of iron. M. C. McKibbon's store, quite a favorite place for burglars, for it has been robbed about as often as any store in the county, was entered through the back door. Recently when the store was burglarized the thief broke the glass out of the front door. McKibbon had a new glass put in. Monday night the thief elected to case, Attorney Esteb of Los Angeles declared that some of the men testifying against Ashley have not yet been proceeded against criminally by the Puente Oil company. Ashley admits that he bought some gasoline from the drivers. He said they told him that when she started from Brea they filled their wagons. In the heat of the day the gasoline would expand, and spill over, and they told Ashley they wanted to sell him some cheap to save it from being wasted. Ashley is out on bail pending his trial in the superior court. He was bound over for trial in the superior court. He gave bail of $1000 for his appearance. POLICE FORCE RECEIVES RAISE At the meeting of the city trustees Thursday evening Trustees Cook moved that members of the police force be given a five dollar raise per month. The motion was duly seconded by Trustee Brunworth, and was about to be put to a vote, when Attorney Ames spoke thusly: "Does that include the marsbal?" "Sure," said Cook. "We want to treat them all alike. They have to buy their own uniforms and besides, things are high." "You can't do that." The marshal's salary is fixed by ordinance, and to allow the raise you will have to amend that document," said the attorney. Marshal Kellenberger began to look as though this really was a cold cruel world, but a way out of the dilemma was found when the five dollar raise could be classed as an appropriation for cloth, and it was so ordered. WEDDING A charming home wedding took place last week at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. S. S. Dauser in Placetta, where John Millings of Orange, and Miss Frances Stueckle, of Santa Ana, were united in marriage. About thirty friends of the young people were present and Father John Galliger of the Saint Mary's church of Fullerton performed the ceremony. The bride was attended by Miss Katherne Kramer of Santa Ana, and the groom by Joseph Stueckle, a brother of the bride. The color scheme throughout the house was yellow and white and the dining room, in which the wedding supper was served, was beautifully SANTA FE WILL BUILD BRANCH TO LA HABRA Will Tap the Oil and New Citrus Region Another transcontinental line is headed for La Habra to tap La Habra valley's rich citrus and oil sections, the Santa Fe having made a survey to Leffingwell and on up to Yorba Linda. Officials have also agreed to buy packing house sites for two citrus associations and have a line in to move next year's crop. The Santa Fe is making a preliminary survey through Orchardale, the Myers and Stamy tracts to the Scott road near Leffingwell Rancho preparatory to building a line int o the La Habra Valley and probably will build on to the Richfield Olinda line as surveys were made about Yorba Linda some time ago. This would connect with the main line at Richfield and the Los Angeles-San Diego line at Los Nietos. The proposed line will parallel the Pacific Electric to the south about one-fourth of a mile. It is understood officials of the Santa Fe have instructed those at the head of two proposed citrus associations to choose a site with the understanding the Santa Fe will buy the land and either lease the land and the association's building or they would build and lease the entire property. A number of prominent men are taking steps to organize the East Whittler Citrus Association which will probably select their site on the Stamy tract, lease land purchased by Entrance to this place was gained by prying open a window with a piece of iron. M. C. McKibbon's store, quite a favorite place for burglars, for it has been robbed about as often as any store in the county, was entered through the back door. Recently when the store was burglarized the thief broke the glass out of the front door. McKibbon had a new glass put in. Monday night the thief elected to break the glass out of the back door. Some crackers and a can of corned beef made up the store's donation to the midnight repast. The thief opened his bottle of beer, which he brought in with him from his rig, sat down on a dry goods box and enjoyed his refreshments. After he had swallowed two thirds of the contents of the beer, he put the bottle in a tub of water to keep it cool. Since McKibbon was setting up the crackers and corned beef, the visitor thought it only right that he should leave McKibbon some of the beer. However, the burglar's taste for liquid is not confined to beer, for took away several bottles of soda pop. Two of these bottles were found on the fence. From McKibbon's store the thief got nine pairs of shoes, two boxes of perfumery and some chewing tobacco. PREPAREDNESS TRAIN There promises to be a general exodus of Orange county people on Wednesday, May 23, when many are planning to journey to Whittler to inspect the national preparedness train, now being operated over the Salt Lake line in Utah and Nevada, and which will be in Whittier on May 23, being Ana, were united in marriage. About thirty friends of the young people were present and Father John Galliger of the Saint Mary's church of Fullerton performed the ceremony. The bride was attended by Miss Katherine Kramer of Santa Ana, and the groom by Joseph Stueckle, a brother of the bride. The color scheme throughout the house was yellow and white and the dining room, in which the wedding supper was served, was beautifully decorated with white Lamark roses and yellow Coreopsis. The bride's gown was of white taffeta with a veil caught with orange blossoms. She also carried a beautiful bouquet of bride's roses and ferns. After a few days the young people will make their home in Orange at the old home of Mrs. Millings, the groom's mother. OFFICER IN A WRECK An Overland automobile driven by Lieut. Gardner, Seventh U. S. Infantry was wrecked Tuesday on the state highway near Irvine. The lieutenant and a dog that was in the car with him escaped unharmed, but the car is tangled scrap iron. The man offered to sell the machine as it lay, and that offer resulted in a call to the sheriff's office stating that it was believed the machine was stolen. Deputies Imanh and Cravath went to the place, and were quickly convinced that the machine was not stolen. Lieut. Gardner was in San Diego when he was ordered to San Francisco. He loaded his army togs into the machine, and started to drive through. He was passing a team and was going fast when he hit a culvert fence, and turned over.

MEXICAN KILLED AT LA HABRA Firing through the floor into the attic, Rufus Acosta Monday morning killed Antonio Villagomez at La Habra. Acosta turned his revolver over to a man at La Habra, and waited until Sheriff Jackson and Deputy Maxwell arrived, and to them he gave himself up. Last Saturday night Villagomez was drinking. He slapped Mrs. B. Garcia, sister of Acosta, who with her small brother lives in the same house with Villagomez and his wife. He also abused the small boy. Acosta protested, and being unarmed, had to leave when Villagomez threatened him with a knife. Sunday Acosta went to the home of his father at Ramona Acres and got a revolver. Monday morning he went to Villagomez's house, where he ed. At the present time Garden Grove lies in no high school district, yet under the measure as reported it might be seized and put into any one of four districts, Santa Ana, Huntington Beach Union, Anaheim Union or Orange Union. So far as could be learned, the measure has not become a law. Should it be or become law, the Garden Grove people may proceed to form a separate high school district of the territory from the Santa Ana city limits along the Pacific Electric line to the Orange county line. Plans are indefinite as to what might be done in regard to conducting a high school. One of the suggestions that has been made was to organize a high school district to prevent being taken into some other district but for the purpose of meeting the tuition of the children of the district who go to other districts. Last Saturday night Villagomez was drinking. He slapped Mrs. B. Garcia, sister of Acosta, who with her small brother lives in the same house with Villagomez and his wife. He also abused the small boy. Acosta protested, and being unarmed, had to leave when Villagomez threatened him with a knife. Sunday Acosta went to the home of his father at Ramona Acres and got a revolver. Monday morning he went to Villagomez's house, where he and his wife were making bread. After a few heated words Villagomez went upstairs into the attic. It is believed that Acosta thought he went for a gun. Firing at random through the floor, one of the two bullets sent upward by Acosta lodged in Villagomez's head, and killed him instantly. Acosta has lived in this county for several years, and had applied for citizenship so that he might join the marine reserve. Villagomez was 20 years old, Acosta is 19. GARDEN GROVE TALKING OF HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT Committee Selected to Look Into the Matter and Report A number of people at Garden Grove have been discussing the advisability of starting a movement to establish a high school district. No definite action has been taken further than the appointment of a committee of three, which committee is to look into the situation and make a report. The matter has arisen by reason of the fact that it was reported that there was a bill before the legislature whereby any high school district could extend its boundaries without getting a majority vote of the territory annex- Plans are indefinite as to what might be done in regard to conducting a high school. One of the suggestions that has been made was to organize a high school district to prevent being taken into some other district but for the purpose of meeting the tuition of the children of the district who go to other districts.
