His rain guage has recorded over five inches for the season up to Friday night. Mr. Dickel looks for fine crops. V. W. LaMont, Bud Sackett, Charles Koehler and A. R. Cliff went over to Lake Elsinore Saturday evening and spent Sunday fishing. Wierd and conflicting stories of their experiences are told by the individual members of the party, consequently we refuse to believe any of them. All agree, however, that they brought home a few fish. Rivas Brothers' circus is with us once again. The tent is pitched on the vacant block east of the Central school building. Miss Anna Everhardy entertained the Five Hundred club Thursday afternoon. At the close of the games the hostess served luncheon to her guests. Mrs. C. F.

The district school meeting called by the trustees of the Anaheim school district for Thursday evening, the 21st was not well attended on account of the inclementity of the weather. The few who wore there elected C. E. Chamberlain as chairman and Wm. H. Chambers as secretary and adjourned to meet at 7:30 on Thursday, the 28th.

Sloop leaves tomorrow for Phoenix, Arizona, where he has leased 460 acres of land and will plant it to cotton. Mr. Sloop has made several trips to Arizona recently, and finds the soil and climate ideal for cotton culture. He is an experienced farmer, being a graduate of the Pennsylvania college of agriculture. He has resided here six years, during which time he has developed a fine 40-acre Valencia orange orchard two miles southeast of town. He has disposed of his interest in the orchard and will henceforth devote his attention to cotton culture. His family will continue to reside here, and he will probably make return trips here every sixty days. The grand master of the Masonic lodge of the state of California will visit the Anaheim lodge Thursday evening. The lodges of Ornge county have been invited to meet with the local lodge and hear the grand master's message. A banquet will be served at 6:30 at which 300 men are expected to sit down. Friday afternoon John Alvarado of Highland and Joe Smith were using loud language on South Los Angeles street when Officer Baxter told them to desist. According to the police the men then went into Caspar's chap house and resumed their boisterous action. Baxter entered and an altercation ensued between him and Alvarado. The men clinched and Baxter drew his club and attempted to strike Alvarado when the latter grabbed the shillalah and the men went to the floor. At this time Marshal Kellenberger appeared and he rushed the combattants. Alvarado with an oath said no officer could hit him with a club Kellenberger knowing that Alvarado resisted one officer took no chances and adjusting the bracelets.

The few who were there elected C. E. Chamberlain as chairman and Wm. H. Chambers as secretary and adjourned to meet at 7:30 on Thursday, the 28th. The board of trustees urge that each and every interested individual make it their business to attend and express an opinion so that there may be a basis on which to work upon the proposition of going ahead with the building of a new school building to relieve the congestion and to give adequate accommodations for the children of the western part of the city. District Attorney West has called the attention of the board of supervisors to the fact that this year's assessment will be made by school districts instead of road districts as heretofore. The new state law further directs that road district funds be done away with, except that each supervisorial district is all one road district with but one road fund. Later a resolution will be passed putting all present road funds of present road districts into the supervisorial road funds. A great many Anaheim people were in attendance at the Orange Show Sunday, and all state that it was the best ever. In the Orange county exhibit was a table covered with 128 varieties of citrus fruit, all grown in this county, and which ranged from small oranges in a bunch like grapes, to a giant lemon about the size of a cantaloupe. A well known bean grower remarked to a number of his friends, about two weeks ago—or just before it began to rain in the good old fashioned way—that he would give a thousand dollars an inch for nine inches of rain. Without the rain he would raise no beans, and without the beans he would not roll up an addition to his bank account. But with the wetness as prayed for becoming a reality the price offered for the moisture would be money well spent. Now that about half of the total rainfall has descended the gentleman can forward his check for that amount and he will be credited with that on account and no questions asked. But perhaps this was only conversation money or the species used in the movies. Baxter entered and an alteration ensued between him and Alvarado. The men clinched and Baxter drew his club and attempted to strike Alvarado when the latter grabbed the shillalah and the men went to the floor. At this time Marshal Kellenberger appeared and he rushed the combattants. Alvarado with an oath said no officer could hit him with a club Kellenberger knowing that Alvarado resisted one officer took no chances and adjusting the bracelets upon him marched him off to jail. He was later released upon depositing $50 ball. Saturday morning Judge Howard, held him under $500 ball to await trial, charged with resisting an officer, which constitutes a minor felony. The marshal also brought in Smith who was assessed $10. On Monday Alvarado was in court and the charge against him was reduced to one of disturbing the peace. It being his first offence he was fined $50 which he paid. Mr. Stark says he ed that when a similar state of Arkansas, he appeal to the United Court, in 1915, that heed that a petition to be filed within the trial. He also learns cases from the state and Utah had also been Supreme Court tions before him furnished the motive opinion from the attorney himself to more themselves regarding petition filed in the board of trustees of it is already known general coincides with above quoted.

RE Charles Mauerhan died at his residence in Fullerton Sunday. Funeral was held at the Baptist church in that city Tuesday, interment being in Loma Vista cemetery. George Meyers raises all of the chickens which he uses in his Palm Cafe and now has several hundred of Billy Knott gave the police force a lift at 2 a.m. Sunday morning when he offered the services of his machine to bring in an unruly Mexican who was creating a disturbance in the West end. Billy says the Mexican was acting up something scandalous, so the police fetched him in and put him in pickle. Of late several complaints have been made about cruelty to animals where horses have been allowed to stand hitched for a number of hours without attention. It would seem that the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals would have a good job in this vicinity rounding up some of these persons who misuse dumb animals. John Selinger has in contemplation the erection of a modern residence on his ten acre tract on East Orange-thorpe avenue, upon which he has a fine bearing orange orchard. Mr. and Mrs. Selinger and family at present are making their home on East Broadway and when their new residence is completed will take up their abode in their new home. Last year John Cook in partnership with his brother raised over 10,000 sacks of beans on the Irvine ranch, and the year before that they raised about the same quantity. This year, owing to the bountiful rainfall the past few weeks, they will plant a large acreage to beans and expect to equal their former harvests. Beans furnish an important part of the soldiers' daily rations, and Mr. Cook believes he is doing his bit along that line from a patriotic standpoint. After spending twenty continuous years in the mining regions of Alaska Vincent Smith feels that Orange county is just about all right, so he has purchased through the C. B. Berger company the L. P. Smith grove which lies between Orange and Ana- Johnny Holcomb of the First National bank force has been confined to his home in Fullerton with tonsilitis. Fred Betts, manager of the Duffel orange tract in Placentia was a business visitor in town Saturday. Fred looks forward to a prosperous season. Pete Nicolas was in town a few days ago to hear the latest about the forthcoming city election. Pete is wise and is rated as a good prognosticator, but did not give out an opinion on the final outcome this early in the game. Adolph Stankey put in a new cement incline in the sidewalk on East Center street to be used as a driveway leading to the temporary quarters of the fire truck, which are to be provided on the lot next to the Masonic building. Mr. Stankey's work is always of the best and people can depend on a good job being done by him. J. W. Sackett was agreeably surprised on Friday by having several of his old time friends and neighbors of Montana call upon him. Mr. Sackett gave the visitors the best in the house and showed them around Anaheim and vicinity, and the Montanans were greatly delighted. The citrus trees are blooming from a month to six weeks earlier than ever before says A. S. Bradford of Placentia. That means that the coming crop will be earlier than usual. I expect that there will be an unusually heavy crop if the weather does not prevent the setting of the blossoms which are now showing up in many districts. The bloom has not yet made its appearance in Orange county. Regarding our present crop we have 80 per cent of the late varieties. It means a big return for the growers. While Fred Minyard was sweeping Charles Mauerhan died at his residence in Fullerton Sunday. Funeral was held at the Baptist church in that city Tuesday, interment being in Loma Vista cemetery. George Meyers raises all of the chickens which he uses in his Palm Cafe and now has several hundred of various sizes which he has been taking out of the incubator which he operates at his home on Claudina street. Within the next few months he expects to have a flock of at least a thousand. A chicken that has been fattened won't lay, so George gives 'em the axe, and serves them up any style you wish. George has worked in all the big cafes in the country but when he heard of Anaheim a few years ago he came here with his family and opened a restaurant of his own, and is rapidly piling up a bank roll. Mr. Meyers on Saturday purchased a Saxon which the family will use in visiting points of interest in the Southland. At the conclusion of the trustee's meeting Thursday night, when the clock was striking eleven, a small bunc hot city officials and citizens were scurrying around looking for hats and overcoats preparatory to beating it after a somewhat stormy session of the city dads. At this juncture an unguarded remark by an official came near precipitating an encounter, the only thing preventing it being that the man whom it aimed at remained cool and collected and passed it off. Presently the crowd filed out of the hall, the fighting spirit dampened somewhat, and as it looked like rain everybody went home. As an aftermath of the session of the councilmen at their last meeting, when the referendum petition was up for hearing, the question has been frequently asked why certain members of the board sought an opinion from the attorney general relative thereto. William Stark, who keeps well posted upon matters of current interest, had looked up the codes and found in the case of Dawson vs. Le兰d, of Los Angeles, the District Court of Appeal, in 1913, upheld the decision of the lower court, ruling that a supplemental petition must be filed within thirty days after the passage After spending twenty continuous years in the mining regions of Alaska Vincent Smith feels that Orange county is just about all right, so he has purchased through the C. B. Berger company the L. P. Smith grove which lies between Orange and Anaheim. L. P. Smith plans to improve some property he owns in the San Joaquin valley. Vincent Smith intends to make his home on the grove property and will further improve it. Thieves Wednesday night cut the staple holding the padlock in place on the door of the Garden Grove Bean growers association and stole thirty sacks of beans. The association packing house is located on the Pacific Electric tracks just north of the depot. The staple was cut off sometime during the night and the beans were removed. Officers have the prints of three different pairs of shoes, and the track of an automobile in which the beans were hauled. It is estimated that the beans stolen were worth $300. Walter Mickle predicts a fine season, even though the rains were late in starting. Walt says a large acreage had been plowed and received in full measure the rainfall of the past two weeks which will start the new crops nicely. More rains are confidently looked for during the next six weeks or two months, which will round out the season in good shape. Walt says the late rains are always the best, and while during the past few months the rainfall did not come anywhere being normal the future prospects for wetness are good. Orange growers in northern Orange county have been reaping a golden harvest so far this season. The past few weeks Navels have been netting growers $5 per box. This is considered a very fancy price. The fruit commanding these prices are of course of the best, and growers who know how to raise oranges are rapidly amassing quite a bank roll. Later on when the first class Valencias come to maturity it is reasonably expected that the best prices realized in years will be obtained. The police department and record-traffic officer and expect to equal their former harvests. Beans furnish an important part of the soldiers' daily rations, and Mr. Cook believes he is doing his bit along that line from a patriotic standpoint. After spending twenty continuous years in the mining regions of Alaska Vincent Smith feels that Orange county is just about all right, so he has purchased through the C. B. Berger company the L. P. Smith grove which lies between Orange and Anaheim. L. P. Smith plans to improve some property he owns in the San Joaquin valley. Vincent Smith intends to make his home on the grove property and will further improve it. While Fred Minyard was sweeping up the new headquarters of the marshal's office, in the rear end of which there is a number of loose boards used as flooring, he picked up fifteen cents. Fred kept the broom going for quite a while afterwards, but did not find any more "jits." Once Fred saw a tenant carelessly flash a $300-roll of bills in the place, but he evidently held on to it, as at was not found tucked away in any of the crevices in the dilapidated floor. Whenever anyone cleans up an old place it is but natural to think you are to stumble upon a pot of gold or something., but in this particular case all that has been found is three car fares. Three Mexicans went into Jackson's Men's Wear store Saturday afternoon and while two of them engaged the clerkks other succeeded in putting three suits of clothes into a suitcase which he carried. A sweater was also taken. The theft was not discovered until a short time after the men left the store. The police were notified and arrested two of the men beyond the city limits north, where they were waiting to catch a stage. The goods were recovered and the men placed in jail. Monday morning Judge Howard sentenced them to 90 days in the county jail. A roving band of Gypsies struck town a few days ago, but were quickly given run by the police. One of their favorite stunts, as related by a victim, is for a pair of females to invade your place of business and plead to tell your fortune. When the sucker bites he holds out the palm of his hand and the fair one begins to read the life lines and other curves in your hand and predicts all kinds of prosperity to be coming your way. To make the steer all the more convincing, she now asks you to hold some pieces of money in your hand and after examining the silver, will close your hand tightly upon the change, and make a few mesmerizing passes at you and then depart. If you have for hearing, the question has been frequently asked why certain members of the board sought an opinion from the attorney general relative thereto. William Stark, who keeps well posted upon matters of current interest, had looked up the codes and found in the case of Dawson vs. Land, of Los Angeles, the District Court of Appeal, in 1913, upheld the decision of the lower court, ruling that a supplemental petition must be filed within thirty days after the passage of the ordinance which it is sought to have suspended from going into operation. It is said that this case had been vigorously combatted in the appellate court and that nine lawyers had been retained by the vanquished forces, and still they lost Mr. Stark says he also learned that when a similar case from the state of Arkansas, had been taken on appeal to the United States Supreme Court, in 1915, that tribunal had ruled that a petition to be sufficient must be filed within the thirty day limitation. He also learned that similar cases from the states of New York and Utah had also been affirmed by the Supreme Court. Having these citations before him Mr. Stark said furnished the motive for securing an opinion from the attorney general of this state—to more fully satisfy themselves regarding the referendum petition filed in the case before the board of trustees of this city. And as it is already known, the attorney general coincides with the opinions above quoted. The communication had received a short while before the meeting assembled and had been shown to Trustees Cook and Brunworth, and later, had been laid before the trustees for consideration. few weeks Navels have been netting growers $5 per box. This is considered a very fancy price. The fruit commanding these prices are of course of the best, and growers who know how to raise oranges are rapidly amassing quite a bank roll. Later on when the first class Valencias come to maturity it is reasonably expected that the best prices realized in years will be obtained. The police department and recorder's court were compelled to make a hurried exit from their quarters on the lower floor of the old city hall building on Thursday last on account of a large volume of rain water coming through the roof, which had been partly removed by the wrecking gang before going up against a restraining order from the superior court. Recorder Howard had a cabinet filled with court papers which received a good soaking, and which are ruined. The furniture in the office also got a good wetting and started to warp. The police office desk filled with a miscellaneous lot of court documents and effects of many months' accumulation were in the swim, and Marshal Kellenberger says he will have to subject them to some sort of rejuvenescence in order to make them of service. The rainwater ran all around the motor fire truck, and did it no good, and Driver Minyard was kept on the jump to keep his machinery from an unexpected immersion. The boys later moved over west another doorway where things were somewhat of a dryer nature and set up temporary housekeeping, meanwhile keeping an eagle eye out for more rain and leaks, and ready to make another getaway if the pluvial weather continued. Officer Baxter went over to Orange Tuesday and arrested a young man named Mueller, who was charged with driving his auto at excess speed. At the ball game the Sunday afternoon previous the young man drove down Citron street at a rapid rate, exceeding thirty miles an hour. The street was lined with parked autos and people were passing back and forth across the street during the progress of the game. It was miraculous that the speeder did not run over someone. Baxter called to the driver to stop, but he went all the faster. His number was secured, however, and the officer looked up the directory and found the man lived at Orange. Mueller was brought before Judge Howard, and it being his first offense the man was let off with a fine of $10. The judge gave him a severe reprimand, saying that he felt inclined to send him to jail, because his actions under the circumstances were malicious. The judge told him if he ever came before the court again he would fine him heavily and also send him to jail.

Heger of Casa Verdugo, father of William Heger, Jr., of the Union Brewing company of this city, died Sunday morning, February 24 at six o'clock after a lingering illness, at the age of 62 years. For many years Mr. Heger was connected with the Hyde Park Brewing association at St. Louis, but came to California in 1911 and has resided at Casa Verdugo ever since. Mr. Heger leaves a wife, three children and four grandchildren. The children are William Heger, Jr., of Anaheim, Lleut. Lewis O. Heger and Mrs. Stella Studt.

Prudencia E. Yorba of Yorba was adjudged insane Monday and was ordered committed to the asylum at Patton. His father, P. S. Yorba, applied for letters of guardianship upon the son's estate, which consists of 40 acres at Yorba. H. C. Head is attorney for the petitioner. A. W. Thomas, whose electrical fixture establishment was recently closed by creditors, has made an assignment to Adolph Thomas of the German American bank. The bank satisfied pressing claims, and Mr. Thomas states that he has sufficient assets in his possession to pay the full amount of all indebtedness, and that the establishment will shortly be able to reopen for business with no claims against it. The Encinitas Bean Growers' association has been organized and will increase bean acreage in San Diego to 40,000 acres this season. NOTED DESPERADO ENDS HIS CAREER Rosario Salz Passes to the Beyond at San Quentin Penitentiary Finis has been written at the end of the last chapter in the career of Rosario Salz, the noted desperado. Word was received by his stepfather in this city last week that he had died in San Quentin penitentiary, and asking what disposition to make of the body. As the old gentleman was unable to shoulder the expense of bringing the remains here Rosario was buried in the prison cemetery. Salz was one of the worst desperados this section of the country ever produced, having a number of murders to his credit, it is claimed. He was a native of Anaheim, but most of his evil deeds were committed elsewhere. He was one of the four men sentenced to death in this county upon whom the sentence was never carried out. Some years ago he was convicted of killing a Mexican sheep shearer in the camp of Santos Carrisosa. He was sentenced to be hanged but secured a new trial which resulted in a sentence of imprisonment for life. Before being taken to prison he made a spectacular escape by overpowering Sheriff Lacey, taking possession of his keys, and locking the sheriff in his cell. Salz fled to Mexico where, it is reported, he continued his lawless career. He was finally located by Sheriff Ruddock at Ensenada. Extradition papers were secured and the criminal was returned to California and finally landed at San Quentin. A benefit dance for the Anaheim baseball club will be given at Odd Fellows hall-this (Thursday, evening, Feb. 28). The gentlemen having the affair in charge promise all who attend one of the best social events of the season. Nearly 1600 rabbits were killed in a drive in the Pixley section.
