Both of them are subject to draft, but are doing their bit until Uncle Sam is ready for them. Thomas Hollingworth entertained the rural mail carriers of Orange county at his hospitable home on East Broadway street Friday evening, when business and pleasure served to pass a pleasant and profitable evening.

Berger was transacting business in Los Angeles and Long Beach Wednesday. Frank Nellsen who recently returned from Utah is now sporting around the boulevards in a new Chervolet. William Falkenstein went over to Riverside Thursday to attend the annual convention of the California Retail Merchants' association. Tax Collector John Kellenburger has appointed Marion Eden as assistant during the collection of city taxes. Taxes become delinquent the last Monday in November. John Dwyer has harvested 173 packs of beans from 13 acres, the beans being planted between the trees. This brings in a tidy sum of revenue and does not impair the growth of the trees. Twenty five members of the Christian Endeavor society of the Christian church went down to Anaheim Landing Thursday evening and enjoyed a weiner bake on the sands. Jose De Leon and Perfecto Truhillo, charged with the theft of chickens from M. Durnbaugh of West Anaheim, were found guilty of burglary in the first degree by the jury which tried them. Sentence will be passed on them Friday. At the board of trade luncheon today Prof. J. L. Van Der Veer will be toastmaster, and Dr. Frederick Monson, who has been lecturing at the Fremont school will be the speaker. Dr. Monson is a brilliant talker and the auditorium writer must be running out of timber upon which to build a drama, for they all have about the same wind-up—the leading lady falls in love with the leading man and they are supposed to get married and live happy ever after. And the technique in many instances is very bum. When Raymond Nebelung saw in a local paper Friday night that he was scheduled to leave for Camp Lewis the following night he immediately got busy bidding good bye to his many friends. He sold his horse, and hired another man to take his place on his ranch, and attended to all the necessary details to a prolonged absence. Saturday morning he reported to the exemption board's office at Fullerton only to be told that it was a mistake, and that he would not be required to leave until the end of the month. "Nebs" will now have the pleasure of bidding his many lady friends good-bye a second time. Frank Steadman who returned a few days ago from Victor Valley informs us that farmers there have voted unanimously to form a Wright irrigation district, not a dissenting vote being cast against it. Water will be taken from Little Bear Lake, a distance of 30 miles, and used for irrigation. Many good crops are raised in the valley without irrigation, but when the water is put on the land it is expected great deal better yields will result. Water now has to be hauled five or six miles for domestic purposes, which is rather inconvenient. Residents of the valley are jubilant owing to the prospective coming of water, and they are all getting ready to make two blades grow where only one grew before. A divorce decree was granted in Los Angeles Thursday to Mrs. Irma V. Peabody against Charles R. Peabody. The At the board of trade luncheon today Prof. J. L. Van Der Veer will be toastmaster, and Dr. Frederick Monson, who has been lecturing at the Fremont school will be the speaker. Dr. Monson is a brilliant talker and the audience will hear an entertaining address. H. S. Jayne and family have returned to Anaheim, and will probably make their future home here. Mr. Jayne recently purchased the residence at the corner of Olive and Chartres streets, formerly owned by Fred Heying. Miss Mabel Ulrich, of the Anaheim Sanitarium force, was married Wednesday to Plummer Stewart of Yorba Linda. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Clifford Jones at his residence in Los Alamitos. The couple left on their bridal tour, expecting to return the middle of November. They will make their home at Yorba Linda. The name and address of every Orange county man in the United States service ih wanted by the Associated Chambers of Commerce, and persons who have friends in any branch of the service are requested to send them to J. C. Metzgar, the secretary. This is in order to have them lined up for the Christmas box which every boy is going to receive. E. R. Werdin, manager of the L. A. Paving company, was a business visitor in town a few days ago and attended the session of the city council on Thursday night. Bids were opened for street paving and Mr. Werdin's company proved to be the successful bidders. Paving costs considerably more now than a year ago, owing to high cost of material. Mr. Werdin says asphalt has jumped up $8, while laborers' wages are higher now than formerly. Dorothy Mendoza and her mother, Casamarina Mendoza, pleaded guilty to selling liquor and each was fined $100 by Judge Thomas Thursday and each was given a suspended sentence of nine months in the county jail. The Charles Conliffe has the contract to remodel the lower room in the Mason-le building, formerly occupied by the moving picture show. The declivity in the room is being filled up with earth and a cement floor will then be laid. An artistic frontage will be put in and it is said the premises will be occupied by the Pacific Telephone Company. L. Stoffel who has a ranch south-east of town is going after F. K. Gresswell's offer of $5 for a 200-pound pumpkin with a vengeance. Mr. Stoffel has the vines planted between the rows of tress and early in the season picked out one that looked promising in the way of size and shape and started forcing the growth. He inserted a small funnel in the stem of the pumpkin, and every morning places about a third of a pint of rich milk in the funnel. The milk is absorbed by the vine. At present the pumpkin is about three feet long and nearly five feet in circumference. The Salt Lake has brought suit against Pierre Noutary, et al, for right of way through property which the proposed railway line will pass through on its way to Santa Ana. According to the blue print filed with the complaint, the line will cross Commonwealth avenue in Fullerton, going south, at 650 feet west of the Santa Fe, curves east on H. J. Schulte's land, continues east past South Nicolas to the east side of land owned by Meta E. D. Zeyn and Wilhelmina J. Holcomb. The property owners besides those already named, included in the complaint are; R. D. Trapp, William James A. Schulte, Pierre Nicolas, Chas. C. Carpenter, Stern Realty company, S. G. Lehmer, L. M. Gardiner, Jennie Des Granges, Knute B. Narsing, Fullerton Savings Bank, John Hartung and Pacific Telegraph and Telephone company. Phillipina Butler, aged 16, and Natale Dcara both of Anaheim appeared at the county clerk's office Friday and asked for a marriage license. They had with them a note from the girl's mother consenting to the marriage of the girl. Deputy County Clerk Backs announced they would have to have the consent sworn to, and gave the young people the proper form. They came back to Anaheim on the jitney and returned at about 4 o'clock with the statement of consent made will result. Water now has to be hauled five or six miles for domestic purposes, which is rather inconvenient. Residents of the valley are jubilant owing to the prospective coming of water, and they are all getting ready to make two blades grow where only one grew before. A divorce decree was granted in Los Angeles Thursday to Mrs. Irma V. Peabody against Charles R. Peabody. The ground upon which divorce was sought was the fact that Peabody had been convicted of a felony. A transcript was produced showing that Peabody, who was principal of the Magnolia school, was sentenced to 25 years by Judge West, after he had been convicted of a felony in relation to one of his pupils. Peabody was released from San Quentin on parole several months ago. His wife had worked uneasingly to that end, and it was almost entirely through her efforts that the parole was granted. After the man was released, the wife refused to allow him to return to her. It is said that he is at work in San Francisco. Mrs. Peabody lives in Los Angeles. Action for divorce was brought several months ago. Marshal Kellenberger would be a happy man if one or two sections of the license ordinance were amended. A license fee is demanded from each person, firm or corporation who for hire act as carriers of wares or merchandise to, from or within th city. For instance, if one farmer carried a load of walnuts for another, and was paid for the work, he would be subject to the license, and would have to secure a permit to do so, and pay the license fee, which it would seem is unfair, since he is not regularly engaged in that business for hire. Los Angeles wholesalers who deliver bread and cookies here are supposed to pay the city license, but they evade it by claiming that they deliver to the retailers, who already are taxed to carry on their business. But the marshal says the outside wagons occasionally slip around the corper and drop a box of bread to consumers which is a violation of the ordinance, but it is hard to get the evidence to convict unless the officer followed them around and caught them in the act. And again, in reference to outside busses, who have no fixed place of business within this city, which would come near better yields will result. Water now has to be hauled five or six miles for domestic purposes, which is rather inconvenient. Residents of the valley are jubilant owing to the prospective coming of water, and they are all getting ready to make two blades grow where only one grew before.

The girl said she used to go to Orange-thorpe school. She said that she and her mother bought beer from Juan Rodriguez, and had been selling only about a dozen bottles a month. A warrant was issued for Rodriguez's arrest. Delbert Brunton, formerly principal of the Orange high school, has been assigned to his captaincy at Camp Lewis. Brunton left Orange early last spring and took the officers' training course at the Presidio, later going to Fort Sill, in Oklahoma, where he went through the national guard workout. Later he returned to Camp Lewis, where his commission begins. The preliminary examination of J. J. Tavis, former agent for the Salt Lake company in Santa Ana, charged with embezzlement of that company's funds, was on Monday postponed until November 5 at 10 o'clock in the morning. Both the attorney for the prosecution, L. A. West, and the attorney for the defense, Clyde Bishop, are in Sacramento, as representatives of the County Bar association in the matter of debarring T. A. Wells, former attorney in Orange county. Tavis is working at Linda Vista for the government. Phillipina Butler, aged 16, and Natale Decara both of Anaheim appeared at the county clerk's office Friday and asked for a marriage license. They had with them a note from the girl's mother consenting to the marriage of the girl. Deputy County Clerk Backs announced they would have to have the consent sworn to, and gave the young people the proper form. They came back to Anaheim on the jitney and returned at about 4 o'clock with the statement of consent made out but unsigned and unsworn to before a notary. Again the two were told that they would have to bring the slip properly sworn to before the license could be issued and again in good spirit they came back to Anaheim in the jitney. They returned at about 7 o'clock, were given the license by Deputy Backs and were happily united in marriage by Justice Cox. While the city solons were in solemn conclave the other night, the sanctity of the occasion was disturbed by constant tappings upon the inner doors of the compartments below. For a while the unseemly noises had a mystery woven about them and the trustees and others looked at each other, wondering if the house was haunted. Still the rappings continued as before and then began to grow more distinct, and were really annoying to the city dads as they wrestled with the momentous questions confronting them. The quick witted marshal soon discerned the cause of the trouble and going below beheld an inebriated individual in one of the tanks pounding upon the iron railings who wanted out. The man was shifted to the padded cell and then all was quiet and serene, the spooks having disappeared. A linguist held the boards at a down town cafe the other evening, giving the boys samples of various languages of which he is an adept. He talks fluently the languages of the Russian, German, Spainard, Jap, French and many others. He engaged several in conversation in their native tongues, and then essayed to talk Chinese. He appeared to be well versed also in the chatter of the Celestial, but there was none present to verify what he was saying, so the boys took it for granted that the linguist was all right. Quite a crowd gathered and the entertainer was the recipient of many favors. W. E. Adkinson, county game warden of this county, was deputized on Thursday by Fish & Game Commissioner M. J. Connell in Los Angeles, and took office as a state patrol officer at once, in addition to his duties along the same line for this county. ANNUAL EMBROIDERY CONTEST And exhibition of art needlework will be held on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, November 22, 23, 24. Prizes will be given for the best work submitted. Get started today. Watch further announcements for full particulars. Falkenstein's DEPARTMENT STORE Mr. and Mrs. M. Chaviz of the Anaheim sugar factory district have forgotten parental duties during the past week, and their four children, the oldest of which is eight and the youngest four months, would probably have starved to death, it is charged, if the sheriff's office had not intervened. Deputy Maxwell and Under Sheriff Iman were called here Sunday afternoon and found both the mother and father drunk, and the children crying and hungry. There was nothing in the shack but a can of chili peppers and a little flour. Chaviz had $10.10 in his pocket but was too drunk to provide food for the children. Mr. and Mrs. Chaviz were taken to the county jail, the baby was taken to the county hospital, two children were taken to the detention home and one child was left in Anaheim with neighbors. A chinaman who in the past was in the habit of taking his little brown jug to the wholesaler to have it refilled, appeared as usual the other day and asked for his favorite brand. He was told that the price had been raised from $3 to $6 per gallon. With disgust he threw his jug upon the hard floor, breaking it into pieces, saying, "Me alle same dry." Scene—telephone booth of a hotel in a near-by town. Hour: 8 p.m. Ding-a-ling-a-ling. "Hello, is this you 'Mrs. Blank.'" "Yes. This is 'You Know.'" "Say, meet me down at the corner at so-and-so streets." "All right." It so happened that the man was talking to the landlady, instead as he supposed, to his fair conquest. She delivered the message to the woman. The landlady, who was wise to their game, and who scorns the perfidy of man and woman, took occasion to call up the husband and wife of each of the two and told them of the hurried appointment, and asked them to be on hand at the appointed place. In these strenuous times the little county of Orange is doing her bit, and if every other county in the state and nation was doing as well, the war would be over in a great deal less time than seems now apparent. Five sugar mills are running 24 hours a day, thousands of acres of beans are being harvested, a good crop of walnuts is being shipped to market, oranges are being sent out by the carload, with the famous crop of Valenclas soon to be at their best, chili peppers growing in large quantities, to say nothing of thousands of acres of small fruits raised to perfection, will give a person an insight to the productivity of the soil in this matchless section. These crops keep the dollars rolling in, which go out into the various branches of trade. Tillers of the soil are receiving high prices for their products, and no one begrudges them their good luck and if the speculation feature could only be squeezed out of the speculator all would be well. The frontage of the Hartman building at Center and Olive streets when finished will be of artistic design. The building will be one story, with a gable and tile roof down the center. It is the first building of that design to be erected here and will add greatly to the architectural beauty of the city. The building is divided into three store rooms.
