The Weekly Gazette. ESTABLISHED 1870 Henry Kuchel, Editor and Proprietor SUBSCRIPTION PER YEAR ... $1.50 SIX MONTHS ... $1.00 THREE MONTHS ... $ .50 Entered at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter A GERMAN CONFESSION Prince Lichnowsky's revelations appear to be exciting some further heart searchings in the fatherland, and the Berlin Tag comes out with a plaintive confession of German "miscalculations." This Berlin weekly walls: "So many of our calculations have deceived us! We expected that British India would rise when the first shot was fired in Europe, but in reality thousands of Indians came over to fight with the British against us. We anticipated that the whole British Empire would be torn to pieces, but the colonies appear to be closer than ever to the mother country. We expected a triumphant rebellion in South Africa, and yet it turned out to be nothing but a fizzle. We expected trouble in Ireland, but instead she has sent thousands of her best soldiers against us. We anticipated that the party of 'peace at any price' would be dominant in England, but it melted away in the ardor to fight against the Germans. We reckoned that England was degenerate and incapable of placing any weight in the scale, but she seems to be our principal enemy. "The same has been the case with France. We thought that France was depraved and divided, but we have found her a formidable opponent **** Those who led us into all these mis- set by the railroad commission. "Then, if the rate is found to be reasonable there will be no need for a cooperative system, and if the rate be found exorbitant we can try for a cooperative system if we want to," is the sentiment of the members. The matter was discussed after Mills had presented his plan in detail, during which he said if the present system cannot be bought an entirely new cooperative system could be put in. This idea hit a brick wall, however, for other members of the organization said they are unalterably opposed to any possible duplication when the government is now in such great need of the men and materials which would be required. No action on the matter was taken other than to ask Mills to present his plan to the associated chambers of commerce at the Yorba Linda meeting held last night. Mills' plan calls for a cooperative profit sharing system, with county free tolls, and no fixed charges per telephone. AGED COUPLE CALLED ON THE SAME NIGHT Mr. and Mrs. Fidel Bueche Pass to the Beyond Together The death angel visited the home of Fidel Bueche, on East Adele street Thursday night and claimed both himself and his aged wife, Monica Bueche. Mrs. Bueche had been ill for some weeks, but her husband was stricken only a few days before his death. Mr. Bueche was 82 years of age and his wife 86. They were both born in Baden, Germany, and while still young emigrated to Canada, where they resided for many years. They came to Anaheim thirteen years ago, since which time they have made this their set by the railroad commission.

WERE HIGHLY PLEASED Very enthusiastic over the nineteenth annual convention of the California Mothers' Congress and Parent-Teachers' Association held at Bakersfield last week, Mrs. G. H. Goodale, president of the fourth district Congress of Mothers, Mrs. Arthur Pefley, organizer of Orange, Mrs. D. Eyman Huff, state chairman of philanthropy, and Mrs. O. Rodriguez, president of the Mexican Parent-Teacher Association and city home nurse for the Mexican people, arrived home Saturday. They enjoyed every session of the convention. It was asked that Mrs. Rodriguez be sent as a special favor to tell the Americanization movement here, and the Bakersfield Morning Echo says that she was the most interesting feature of the convention. So splendid was the account of her work that she was given a special conference hour to explain the work and answer questions. She received many personal congratulations from prominent officers and delegates present. FREAK STORM A freak thunder and hail storm visited some portions of Orange county Monday, Santa Ana getting only a trace of rain and some peals of thunder. At Tustin, however, forty-five hundredths of an inch of rain was measured and hail fell heavily for a time, the hail and rain being general all over the San Joaquin ranch, and from El Toro to Tustin. The rainfall at the Irvine ranch house was .11. If any damage was done, it will be on hay in the field and beans. Fullerton experienced a heavy rain shower for about 20 minutes, but at the county park there was hardly a trace of rain, although there was a fidel Bueche, on East Adele street Thursday night and claimed both himself and his aged wife, Monica Bueche. Mrs. Bueche had been ill for some weeks, but her husband was stricken only a few days before his death. Mr. Bueche was 82 years of age and his wife 86. They were both born in Baden, Germany, and while still young emigrated to Canada, where they resided for many years. They came to Anaheim thirteen years ago, since which time they have made this their home. The only relatives residing aere are their daughter, Mrs. John Dillon, and their granddaughter, Mrs. E. E. Brus. The aged couple who have lived together as man and wife, were only separated by death a few hours. Mrs. Bueche died at 3 o'clock, Mr. Bueche shortly after 6. The funeral was held at St. Boniface's church Saturday morning, interment being in Holy Cross cemetery. SPECIAL SERVICE TODAY AT ST. MICHAEL'S CHURCH Congregation Will Unite in Prayers for the Nation and People In response to the proclamation of the President of the United States, setting aside Memorial Day as a day of humiliation and prayer for the nation, there will be a special penitential service at St. Michael's Episcopal church, to be followed by celebration of the holy communion on Thursday at 10 a.m. It is the desire and hope of the bishop of Los Angeles as well as the rector of St. Michael's that all the members of the parish make this day a day of special observance and join in a national confession of sins and prayer for God's mercy and blessing. The service is open to anyone who desires to join in it, and a cordial invitation is extended to everybody. RED CROSS TEA PROVES A FINANCIAL SUCCESS Nearly $40 Collected by Young Ladies for Local Chapter The Red Cross tea given by the young ladies of the local chapter at the parlors of the Valencia hotel Thursday afternoon netted the snug little sum of $39.50, and was so successful that many of the ladies who attended requested that it be given again, and a number of them thought that two-bits was too small a sum to At Tustin, however, forty-five hundredths of an inch of rain was measured and hail fell heavily for a time, the hail and rain being general all over the San Joaquin ranch, and from El Toro to Tustin. The rainfall at the Irvine ranch house was .11. If any damage was done, it will be on hay in the field and beans. Fullerton experienced a heavy rain shower for about 20 minutes, but at the county park there was hardly a trace of rain, although there was a heavy thunderstorm. J. B. Stephenson, who was on the top of Saddleback, telephoned that there was three inches of rain at the peak and a heavy snowstorm. Walter Moore, who was in the Lemont Heights district during the freak storm, estimated there was a half inch of hail there and the ground was white with it. He passed one point on the road where the hail was four or five inches deep. At Anaheim a third of an inch fell, during the first rain, but another shower in the evening added to this. REFUSE TO ENDORSE CO-OPERATIVE SYSTEM Board of Trade Asks Mills to Present Plan to A. C. of C. A policy of "watchful waiting" on the telephone situation until it is determined the kind of rate which will be charged by the consolidated system throughout the county, is favored by the Anaheim board of trade members who Monday night discussed at length A. A. Mills' project for a county cooperative phone system. Before taking any action on this project, members present said they are in favor of waiting until the rates for the one-phone system already authorized, are nearly $40 Collected by Young Ladies for Local Chapter The Red Cross tea given by the young ladies of the local chapter at the parlors of the Valencia hotel Thursday afternoon netted the snug little sum of $39.50, and was so successful that many of the ladies who attended requested that it be given again, and a number of them thought that two-bits was too small a sum to pay for the excellent entertainment and insisted on paying again. The parlor was beautifully decorated for the occasion by Miss Lucy Ziegler, while Miss Elisie Ziegler acted as waitress and served the guests. The tea and coffee, also the dishes, were donated by the Oyster Loaf Cafe, while the cake was given by the Boston and White Lily and the Lautenbach bakeries, while Mrs. Al Erickson supplied the tables with cookies. Music was furnished by the J. A. and F. orchestra, which is composed of Miss Margaret Junge, Miss Alleen Adams and Miss Friend. So successful was this affair that it will probably be repeated shortly. SUNDAY AT SEAL BEACH Mr. C. H. Burnett and Mr. Lou Guernsey, two of President Wilson's four minute men, will inspire patriotism at Seal Beach Sunday, June 2, marking the opening of the season for this popular seaside resort. Twenty-five Baby Bonds ($5 War Savings certificates) will be buried in the sand at different points on the beach to become the property of the lucky finders. The famous Submarine Base Band, 35 strong, will come from "A Pacific Port" to be the guests of the day. THEY SAY— That a man went to Long Beach the other day and after taking a dip in the briny felt as though he would like a "sniffter." After walking around for a while he ran across an old friend and quietly asked where a fellow could tip one over. The friend said, "Follow the leader." Presently they pulled up before a modest looking bungalow and advancing, gave three taps upon the door. That being the proper signal the men were admitted, the pass word also having been forthcoming. A couple off the ice were ordered. They were put away with neatness and dispatch, and they tasted like more. The round was repeated, and the visitors departed. Several days later the man had occasion to again be in the seaside town and having a thirst and a longing for the foamy beverage hunted up the bungalow and giving the proper signal, was dumbfounded to meet an elderly lady who answered the call, saying, "Yes, there has been quite a number of your friends here lately; but the man you're looking for has moved." And the man meekly stole away. Evidently the rainbow police got wise. How many blind pigs in a dry town? That a man can't be in two places at one and the same time unless he's a bird, nor can a man serve two masters. Some of the staunch supporters of municipal ownership—now that the city receives the electric juice from the Edison Co., and has thereby put the municipal idea partly on the tobogan—say, why not go a step farther and sell the pole line and wires to the company and thus do away altogether with the handling of the electric energy. Of course, that would factors in raising the great fund which will sustain our soldiers on the firing line and care for the dependants which they have left at home. In the work which the newspapers of this district have done for the American Red Cross, I believe that public opinion will amply bear me out in expressing the belief that they have been in the highest sense, agents of the United States government in performing one of the most valuable offices in the province of our civilian population, in prosecuting the righteous warfare in which our nation is engaged. Yours very truly, HAROLD JANSS. Publicity Chairman for Southern California and Arizona. FOR SALE—A fine lot near the Santa Fe for sale cheap, or would take baby grand piano in perfect condition. J. S. Howard, 130 So. Los Angeles St., Anaheim. 5-28-21 All business houses in Anaheim will be closed today. Lieut. George A. Smith of Camp Funston, Kansas, was in town the past week visiting Frank Davis and other old time friends. Lieut. Smith is visiting in California for a short while, and expects soon to be in action over there. Mrs. R. Smith of Fullerton will entertain the Thursday afternoon club on Thursday, June 20. That there is today widespread over the United States a tremendous thought and movement toward a union of churches was but one of many of the big things discussed by Rev. J. A. Stevenson, pastor of the First Presbyterian church of Santa Ana, upon his return from the general assemble service at 8:00 o'clock, subject: "The Will That Wins." Bible school at 9:45 a.m. Classes for all ages. Separate rooms. Y. P. S. C. E., Senior and Intermediate, 7:00 p.m. Conference and prayer, Wednesday evening at 8:00 p.m. at one and the same time unless he’s a bird, nor can a man serve two masters. —Some of the staunch supporters of municipal ownership—now that the city receives the electric juice from the Edison Co., and has thereby put the municipal idea partly on the to-boggan—say, why not go a step farther and sell the pole line and wires to the company and thus do away altogether with the handling of the electric energy. Of course, that would mean the discontinuance of the services of the men now employed at the power house. But the advocates of municipal ownership say why stop half way—why not let the Edison company do everything connected with the handling of the electric energy now furnished the city. Some of the home boys might lose out but the city would save a whole lot in wages. Of course we are not advocating this move, but you hear that idea voiced quite often of late among those who favor municipal ownership. —That a three cornered colored men’s list fight was pulled off Sunday afternoon on South Lemon street which had all the earmarks of the real dope as seen in the roped arena, and considerable slugging was indulged, but there was no need for the services of the coroner. Coon town gin when taken in liberal potions generally heats the combative spirit but where razors are eliminated the pugnacious persons are usually able to circumnavigate the perambulations without trouble after the fracas. Of course where only fists are used the harm done is of negligible quantity so long as the blows are aimed at the dome of the fighters. However it has been recorded when they kick each other on the shins a great hullabaloo is stirred up and much unsociable conversation is indulged in. After the battle royal the cops came into view and marched the bunch off to the hoosegdw, and next day all were properly assessed. —That it does begin to look as though this town will soon be listed in the dry column. —That some wise guys are already laying in a supply for family use, and new soft drink emporiums are talked of. THE MAINE PICNIC The annual picnic and grand reunion of the state of Maine people living in Southern California will be held in Sycamore Park, Los Angeles on Saturday. Mrs. R. Smith of Fullerton will entertain the Thursday afternoon club on Thursday, June 20. That there is today widespread over the United States a tremendous thought and movement toward a union of churches was but one of many of the big things discussed by Rev. J. A. Stevenson, pastor of the First Presbyterian church of Santa Ana, upon his return from the general assembly of the Presbyterian church at Columbus, O. That assembly gave to Rev. Stevenson a distinct honor. He was selected and appointed by the general assembly to carry the greeting of the Presbyterian Church of America to Protestant churches of France, to the Presbyterian church in England and to the men in the trenches. Rev. Stevenson is to go to Camp Kearny on Monday, to have charge of religious work of the Y. M. C. A. there until he goes to France in August. PASTORLESS CHURCH MAY BE SUPPLIED Fullerton Preachers Will Look After Rev. C. H. Marsh's Congregation A significant action was taken by the Presbyterian congregation at both morning and evening services Sunday. It indicated the responsiveness of that people to the new spirit of the times, which places the common welfare above individual interest. The congregation and session voted unanimously to offer the services of the church and pastor to the congregation of the Christian church to provide in conjunction with any other of the churches, Sunday evening services and pastoral care for that congregation during the absence of the pastor in France. Mr. Statom explained to the congregation the fraternal and patriotic motives that prompted the movement to assist a sister church which is making a great and worthy sacrifice in giving its pastor to the Y. M. C. A. to minister to our soldiers overseas, and the whole body of members and attendants and officers set their approval upon it. If the proffer is accepted by the Christian church hand other congregations enter into it, it will enable the Y. M. C. A. to send one extra secretary to France, and give this community a larger share in the great service abroad. Services next Sunday conducted by Rev. C. Blanchard Hatch. Morning sermon at 11:00 o'clock, subject: "God at the Battle of the Marne." Evening service at 8:00 o'clock, subject: "The Will That Wins." Bible school at 9:45 a.m. Classes for all ages. Separate rooms. Y. P. S. C. E., Senior and Intermediate, 7:00 p.m. Conference and prayer, Wednesday evening 8:00 p.m. J. W. Duckworth has been confined to his home with illness for some time past, but is improving, and will soon be out again. Ernest Heyling, who recently went north sends word to his friends that he is working in the shipyards at Seattle. Anaheim's long list of boys in the service of the nation is rapidly growing. In addition to those reported elsewhere the naval recruiting station at Los Angeles reports that Arthur S. Osborn, Samuel C. Betz and Robert Brown have, within the last few days, enlisted in the navy. The machinery of the government was too slow to suit "Cooney" Schroff. He was one of the young men recently called for examination by the exemption board and expected to be sent to Camp Leyls shortly, but on Monday he enlisted in the marines and will fight for Uncle Sam on the water. Mr. and Mrs. C. O. Rust have returned from a two-weeks' sojourn at Murletta Hat Springs. Mrs. Joseph Helmsen has purchased a new Cadillac machine, which is one of the finest cars in the city. The Parent Teacher's association will meet next Tuesday afternoon at 3:30 in the Fremont school. The regular election of officers will occur at this meeting and a full attendance is desired. Orchardists say that the rain storm Tuesday destroyed the aphis on fruit trees, but it is said that the downpour did considerable damage to other crops. Rev. C. B. Hatch and daughter, Miss Emily Hatch, have moved to Anaheim and taken up their residence in the Yonghuth apartments, Rev Hatch THE MAINE PICNIC The annual picnic and grand reunion of the state of Maine people living in Southern California will be held in Sycamore Park, Los Angeles, on Saturday, June 8th.

Extend the notice to others in your locality and elsewhere. WHAT NEWSPAPERS DID To the newspapers of Southern California and Arizona, which are embraced in the division of the American Red Cross, of which I have the honor of being publicity chairman for the second war fund drive, I desire to express the grateful acknowledgement of the department for the loyal patriotism with which they have devoted the valuable space of their columns to disseminating information and education which has been one of the principal a great and worthy sacrifice in giving its pastor to the Y. M. C. A. to minister to our soldiers overseas, and the whole body of members and attendants and officers set their approval upon it. If the proffer is accepted by the Christian church hand other congregations enter into it, it will enable the Y. M. C. A. to send one extra secretary to France, and give this community a larger share in the great service abroad. The clerk of the session was instructed to convey to the pastor and congregation of the Christian church the fraternal greetings of the Presbyterians and their offer of assistance in a worthy cause. Independent of the action taken by the Presbyterian church, a meeting of the members of the Methodist church was held after the night service Sunday. A report was received from a committee appointed to investigate the matter of tendering the assistance of the church to the First Christian church, in order to help them maintain their services during the absence of their pastor, Rev. Clark Marsh, who is entering Y. M. C. A. work in France. The committee recommended that the Methodist church make such an offer and on motion it was carried without dissent. Arrangements will be made later a to details should the Christian church accept the offer. It was pointed out that since the Christian church was losing its pastor and keeping up his salary for the support of his family it would be a splendid, Christian thing for other churches to undertake to help them keep up their work, if such an arrangement was acceptable to the members of the Christian church. Orchardists say that the rain storm Tuesday destroyed the aphis on fruit trees, but it is said that the downpour did considerable damage to other crops. Rev. C. B.

MAKE NO OTHER ENGAGEMENT Take Stages from Center and Lemon Street Stage Station, Or P. E. Carr from Orange Tuesday morning the third trial of the contest of the will of Mrs. Gertrude Finley Pusey was commenced in Judge West's court. In each of the former trials the will was upheld, under which the estate, valued at $30,000 would go to relatives here, and each decision was reversed by the upper court. Tuesday deposition were being read attacking the validity of H. F. Pusey's divorce from a former wife. It is alleged that he was never divorced, and could not marry the Santa Ana teacher. It was upon this point that the court has hitherto held that the will was valid. Clyde Banfield, driver of a Crown stage, received the supreme insult phone pole. That was bad enough, but the supreme grievance was not that. "He turned around and grinned," said Banfield, at the district attorney's office. "I wouldn't have minded so much if he hadn't grinned." A warrant charging cutting in was issued. W. H. Kennedy, who was recently transferred from Camp Lewis to Camp Funston, writes to his parents that he has again been moved, this time to New York which probably means that he is going over. C. W. Pendleton and family were down from Pasadena visiting Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Duckworth the latter part of the week. THE RED CROSS By EDGAR A. GUEST. I AM too old to share the fight; Too many years have come and gone Since first I saw the morning light, My youth has been and traveled on, Am too old to join the line, Far-flung today that truth shall live; May not die for what is fine, But I am not too old to give. Am not yet so old that I Have drifted from the world apart Still can hear the helpless cry, And mercy still can reach my heart. Still can share from day to day The burden that our youth must bear, And I thank God that I can say The Red Cross is my symbol there. Am too old to bear a lance, Across the shell-torn Flanders' field May not go where troops advance And death's grim terrors are revealed; At I can hear the helpless call, And I can serve them while I live; And I thank God that through it all I shall not be too old to give.
