Many people went up to the county park Sunday to escape the heat, but they fared worse than if they had remained further down in the valley. There was no sign of a breeze stirring anywhere in the canyon and the humidity was oppressive. A sea breeze during the afternoon caused the heated spell here to moderate, and just after sundown a light fog prevailed. On Monday the weather was much cooler and now has again reached normal conditions. F. J.

He will make his headquarters at Ashland, Nebraska, but expects to visit Omaha, Chicago, and other cities. Joe Wagner was fined $25 Monday by Justice Cox for nearly sending A. E. Koepsal and family over an embankment on Newport bluffs Sunday evening. Wagner pleaded guilty to having cut in to pass other motorists on a sharp curve of the Newport-Santa Ana boulevard, on his way home to Anaheim. His machine skidded a little and would have collided with Koepsal's if the latter, who was going toward Newport, had not swerved out toward the embankment where he was in immiment peril. From Mishawaka, Indiana, Vic La Mont writes that he and his family were laid up 87 miles from Chicago by a disabled auto. This was discouraging because they were anxious to get away from that land of incessant rain and everlasting mud. They expected to reach home early in July. He incidentally remarks that he bought gasoline in New York for 28c, in New Jersey for 27c, in Ohio for 25c and in Indiana for 20c. He reports that Slim Love, the baseball player who is well known here, is making a record in New York. He pitcher 33 innings without a score being made off of his delivery. John H.

It is rumored that a committee much larger than the one appointed by the mass meeting, to wait upon the trustees at their next meeting, relative to the city hall proposition, will be in attendance at the session prepared to espouse the cause of the trustees relative to building the city hall upon the present site. Deputy Marshal Phil Germann was arrested Monday on a warrant sworn to by Carl Pressel, charging him with battery. The trouble started at the Webb fire Friday evening. Phil, it appears, was handling a nozzle and accidentally turned a stream on Pressel, who was greatly incensed. He grew abusive and the officer, it is said, slapped him with his open hand. The trial is set for 9:30 o'clock this morning. At the mass meeting the other evening one of the speakers, in referring to the recent purchase of a motor H. P. Tobin and family and E. M. Schlotter and family left Sunday for Big Bear lake on a fishing excursion. They expect to be gone two weeks. Mr. and Mrs. H. P.

A Los Angeles company has bought up nearly the whole potato crop of Orange county. The price is said to be about one thousand dollars a car, which pays a good price to the rancher. They are the same company that had a corner on the onion crop last year. This report of the cornering of Lawrence Sutherland who has been attending U.S.C., is spending his vacation here with his brother, "Jimmie" of the Pinal Dome company.

Gibson of Buena Park was knocked down by Charles Koehler's auto in front of the Heying Pharmacy Friday evening and was severely bruised. She was taken to the sanitarium where it was found that she had sustained no serious injury. Mrs. Gibson, it appears, stepped from behind a parked car directly in front of Koehler's machine, and the accident was unavoidable. Misses Dorothy and Elsalie Shellens were guests of honor at a party given by Miss Dorothy Swope, at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. Leslie Swope, Friday evening. A number of young friends were present. The evening was spent with games and amusements, the hostess serving refreshments.

Phil, it appears, was handling a nozzle and accidentally turned a stream on Pressel, who was greatly incensed. He grew abusive and the officer, it is said, slapped him with his open hand. The trial is set for 9:30 o'clock this morning. At the mass meeting the other evening one of the speakers, in referring to the recent purchase of a motor driven street sweeper by the city trustees, said that an old woman with a broom could sweep all our streets in twelve hours. Mr. Young who sold the sweeper said it was modern in every way and it would take eight hours to clean all the city streets. If the speaker's estimate of the ability of the "old woman and a broom" is correct, Bill Sackett allows she'd have to step lively. Charles Newcombe of this city sustained severe injury when something went wrong with the steering wheel of his auto, and it went into the ditch on West Orangethorpe avenue Thursday evening. The machine was overrun and he received bruises on the right side of his head. He lay unconscious for quite a while when passers by saw him and after administering to him he was revived and brought to home in this city. Mr. Newcombe is now well on the way to recovery. A man named Czarco came over to this city from Santa Ana a few days ago and upon alighting from a jitney discovered that he had lost $700. While in Santa Ana he went to a bank there and drew out the money, receiving currency. Just after leaving the bank he lost his roll, but did not miss it until reaching this city. Czarco hunted up Marshal Kellenberger and told him his troubles. The marshal told him his money was in the Santa Ana bank, and told the man to go and get it. With his eyes almost bulging out of their sockets the man went over to the bank and was handed his roll. Some one had picked up the money and had returned it to the banker to await its owner, as the marshal had learned. Mrs. Theodore Roberts gave a dinner Sunday in honor of her sister, Miss Cecella Stroka, whose birthday it was and her brother, Joe Stroka, who graduated from the Anaheim high school Thursday. Out of town guests were placed an order with the Layne & Bowler company for one of their large 70-ft., 12-in. pumps for installation on his property near Esperanza. A Los Angeles company has bought up nearly the whole potato crop of Orange county. The price is said to be about one thousand dollars a car, which pays a good price to the rancher. They are the same company that had a corner on the onion crop last year. This report of the cornering of the potato crop of Orange county possibly has not taken into consideration the fact that the back yards and vacant lots are producing crops that will take care of a number of families. A patriotic demonstration on the part of boys caused an alarm of fire to be turned in Thursday. On a lot south of Hiram Bowen's residence near the corner of Melrose and Santa Ana streets the grass was fired by fire crackers. The flames spread rapidly and communicated with a pile of stumps. The damage was very slight. Robert Mills, a former resident of Anaheim on Friday last from cancer, funeral services being held Monday.

ENGLAND TO ENLIST SUBJECTS IN AMERICA Under the authority of the United States government Great Britain has started enlistment in this country, of all her citizens between 18 and 45 years of age who may be physically fit for military service. It is estimated that there are over 200,000 such subjects residing here. Other countries of the entente allies will no doubt adopt the same course, especially France, Belgium and Italy. This is certainly preferable to the plan suggested, immediately after the American declaration of war, for the enlistment of foreign legions under the American flag. The foreign reservists who may be residing in this country can give more effective strength to the allies' cause by joining their respective home organizations. Also the age limit, under which citizens of foreign governments may serve in the army is higher than in the United States, which will permit a larger percentage of foreigners to take up arms than if they were permitted to subject themselves to American rules. Report of the Amalgamated Oil company, the Hurley Smith Co., and the St. Helen's Petroleum Co., for the month of May were received and filed. On motion duly seconded the purchasing of a patent ditch cleaner, same as one installed by the River-side company, was referred to the superintendent and Director Sherwood with power to act.

DRAWING JULY FIRST Men registered under the conscription act will be chosen about July 1 and called to active duty about the first of September, according to information contained in orders received by Sergeant-at-Arms McKelvey, in charge of the local recruiting station of the navy. McKelvey has also received figures on enlistments in the navy that indicate that within the next twelve weeks the opportunity for enlisting will have passed. This report shows that on May 31 there was a shortage of 49,729 men in the navy. For the week ending on that date the total of enlistments throughout the country was 3934. Since that time the number of enlistments has been increasing daily, and it is estimated that an average of 5000 a week can be maintained until all the men needed are secured. "There will be no constriction for the navy," said McKelvey, "and it appears now that young men who desire to go into the navy will have to come forward and enlist or lose the opportunity." The twelve Santa Ana men and two from Anaheim accepted last week are at their homes awaiting orders. They are: Santa Ana—Troy Estes, C. Roberts, W. Stevenson, W. W. Wilcox, R. Munger, Roy Osborne, J. B. Mickel, J. Wagner, J. DeVille, J. Cunningham, E. Osborne, T. Share.

Seal Beach is planning a big old fashioned Fourth of July celebration extending over the whole week, July 1 to 7. Some exceptionally fine features are being arranged for Liberty Week, as the celebration will be called. Ten thousand visitors spent the day at Seal Beach last Sunday. FOURTH OF JULY Is coming.
