Stroup was burglarized Thursday night while the family was away from home, a quantity of clothing and other articles being taken.

Dubbel spent a considerable portion of his time the first of the week blinding good-bye to his numerous friends in the city and vicinity. He left yesterday to assume the duties of his new charge at Santa Maria. During his twenty-one years' residence here Father Dubbel made a host of friends inside and outside his church, and his departure causes sincere regret among all classes of people. Wm. Schwenckert, formerly a well known resident of this city, now living in Los Angeles, was in town on Monday afternoon on a brief business mission. Mr. Schwenckert's son, Henry, who was born in this city, is in charge of the wireless apparatus on board of an army transport, and has made many voyages across the water. He writes that on a recent trip the vessel sighted what was believed to be a submarine some two miles away. The vessel's guns was immediately in action, and the object was riddled. It proved to be a piece of wreckage, but at that the accuracy of the gun fire was clearly established. Henry is a powerfully built young man, and on a recent occasion, when his loyalty was questioned by a young mon in the service Henry proceeded to wipe up the floor with him, and the young chapple apologized. We are betting on Henry to the last dollar. Frank Montenyohl, carrier No. 1, is off on a 15-days' vacation. He and his family have gone north to visit their ranch. Monte Webb is handling the route during his absence. F. C. Krause, formerly of the Anaheim National bank, but now president of the First National at Fullerton, is preparing to erect a beautiful residence in our sister town.

Friend have returned from an extended visit to their mining claim near Banning where they have taken a lease upon a valuable undeveloped property which promises good results as soon as work can be put under way which they expect to do in the near future. The former owner is reported to have taken out free gold from the mine, but owing to his advanced age is unable to develop the mine and has consented to leasing it for a term of years. N. F. Steadman received a card from his son Earl Monday morning announcing that the twenty-two boys who left here for Camp Lewis on July 22, are being moved with the exception of Sam Snodgrass, who was retained at Lewis. "We don't know where we are going," said Earl, "but we are on our way." The card was written on the train and mailed at Salem, Ore., consequently the boys are headed southward, with Camp Kearny as the possible destination. Rev. C. Blanchard corner of Cypress and streets.

Dolman Robinson, of Brea, who brought suit for $25,000 against Sheriff Jarkson, lost the first round of the legal battle. District Attorney West, representing the sheriff, put in a demurrer, and Friday morning Judge Thomas sustained the demurrer, which ruling means that Robinson must put in a new complaint or lose his case. Robinson was arrested a few weeks ago on a charge of having received stolen automobile tires. The case was afterward dismissed. Robinson alleged false arrest. Mrs. Lloyd B. Annin, of Fullerton, passed away at the hospital there Saturday morning, following an operation a few days previously, leaving a husband and little daughter to mourn her loss. The musical concert given for the benefit of the Red Cross at the high Claus Otte, of Olive, was a business visitor in town Monday.

Wallace returned Monday morning to again assume his duties as rate collector, after spending an enjoyable ten days' outing with his family, their time being spent at the beaches. Harry G. Splelman, who for a number of years has been employed by Hurley Smith in the gasoline refinery business, in northern Orange county oil fields, will return with his family to this city on August 20th, and will take up his residence on South Melrose street. J. K. Langdon, of East Anaheim, was a business visitor in town a few days ago and made a pleasant call at this office. Mr. Langdon sees a bright future for the orange trade, and expects to see good prices prevail during the entire season. Mr. and Mrs. A. Pierotti have received word from their son, Ernest Pierotti, announcing his arrival in France two weeks ago. Ernest enlisted in May, a month prior to his 20th birthday, as a motor driver, and has already broken into active service. Orange growers are rolling up good sized bank accounts this year and the outlook for the next few years is of the best. Anaheim and immediate sections are especially favored regarding climate and the citrus industry has no Passenger stages now make daily trips to the hot springs in the upper valley. The L. A. Paving Company have a force of men at work at their plant on Santa Ana street, preparing the asphalt for use on the Dyer road, in the southern part of the county, for which contract has been awarded them by the supervisors. Mr. Werdin reports that work is progressing in fine shape and another job of large dimensions awaits him at Hobart, where the company has secured one of the largest contracts ever handled by them. Mr. Werdin's work always is first class and satisfaction guaranteed. Through the State Council of Defense Mrs. L. O. Culp has received appointment to the chairmanship of the Orange County Child Welfare movement. Mrs. Culp's duties will consist in organizing the work in Orange county, and in furthering child welfare efforts whenever possible. Special study and preparation along this line make Mrs. Culp's selection most fortunate, as the work she is undertaking is not only an important move in social progress but a patriotic effort of vital importance. Judge Walter Bordwell, who is seeking the republican nomination for governor, will speak from the band stand at the corner of Lemon and Center streets, Saturday evening. The judge is a Southern California man and has many supporters in this section. Mrs. Amanda Rothaermel, a former resident of this city, died Thursday morning at the home of her son, Fred Rothaermel at Rivera. She has been residing with her son, Albert, at Fulerton, but went to Rivera Sunday on a Mrs. Lloyd B. Annin, of Fullerton, passed away at the hospital there Saturday morning, following an operation a few days previously, leaving a husband and little daughter to mourn her loss. The musical concert given for the benefit of the Red Cross at the high school auditorium Thursday night under the direction of Prof. Thomas Askin, was not as well patronized as such an excellent entertainment deserved. However there was a fair sized audience present, the Red Cross receiving an even hundred dollars. Natives and former residents of the state of Wisconsin now living in the Southland, will picnic at Sycamore Grove, Los Angeles, on Saturday, Aug. 11. Speakers from the Badger state will be present, and a good time is promised all who attend. There is a pretty large colony of Badgers in and around Anaheim, and many of them will enroll as present. Mrs. J. J. Chisholm, who has been spending several months in Southern California, part of the time with her aunt, Mrs. Ella Williams, has returned to her home in Pittsburg. The water company flume on the main ditch which supplied the Placentia district, which collapsed two weeks ago, has been repaired by Superintendent McFadden, and delivery of water has been resumed. It is the intention of the company to install a siphon at that point. Owing to the unsatisfactory bids, caused no doubt by the high cost of material and labor at this time, the board of trustees of the M. E. church rejected all bids for their beautiful new church building last week and decided to postpone building for the present. C. W. Peck has brought suit against the Crown Stage for $109. The plaintiff alleges that on July 4 a stage ran into his automobile on the Santa Ana Newport Beach road. Pack declares that the stage was on the wrong side of the road. The damages asked is on a repair bill. Capt. Victor Schumacher, of Fuller- Orange growers are rolling up good sized bank accounts this year and the outlook for the next few years is of the best. Anaheim and immediate sections are especially favored regarding climate and the citrus industry has no setbacks, which unfortunately hampers less favored parts of Southern California. This section is the home of the famed Valencia orange, which grows to perfection here, and is perhaps the most profitable industry engaged in. R. T. Davies' lease on his Placentia packing house will expire on the first October and he will not renew it, having made arrangements to take charge of one of the association houses in Anaheim, says the Courier. A. S. Bradford, who owns the building, has purchased Mr. Davies' fixtures and equipment. He is not prepared, at present, to announce his plans, but assures us the house will not be closed. Mr. Davies has done much to "keep things moving" while he has been packing fruit here and Placentia will miss him. He will find time, however, to run over once in a while and say hello. As a business man, during the many years he was engaged in mercantile pursuits, H. A. Dickel was very successful, but since he retired from business he has been distinguishing himself as an agriculturist. At any rate he points to a crop of lima beans which he challenges the world to duplicate, and for growing which he deserves a decoration of merit, so he thinks. Having read in a Los Angeles paper some days ago that a citizen of that town had succeeded in growing limas so large that ten of them placed end to end measured nearly a foot, Mr. Dickel went out into his garden, gathered a supply for dinner from his own vines, and from six pods he took ten beans that measured 15 inches when placed end to end. This is an average of an inch and a half per bean, which everybody must acknowledge is a remarkable size, even though they grew in the fertile soil of Anaheim and were husbanded by our most efficient agriculturist. Large numbers of people from all parts of the county come to this city to do their shopping, passing right through towns on their way, but prefer to do their trading here. Anaheim has some of the finest stores in the county and all lines of trade are represented. The women go about town buying what is needed and the men folks renew old acquaintances, talk about the weather, discuss politics and things in general and then go home. Bud Sackett, Billy Lake, Kaspar Chimerez, George Meyers, Geo. Bishop, Frank Davis, Clem Amberg and Albert Kuehn chartered a launch at Balboa Sunday morning and went on a fishing trip to St. Clement Island, returning in the evening. They report a catch of 250 pounds of fish and spent a most delightful day on the bounding billows. Clem Amberg caught a sea trout weighing 16½ pounds, which it said is the first catch of that kind for many years. William Francis Ireland, of Los Angeles, addressed a meeting of the Orange county bakers in Anaheim Friday evening. The subject of his address was conservation and the bakers all agreed to abide by the rules of government. Mr. Ireland has just returned from a conference with the food administration at Washington. Imprinted on the ornamental base of the steel flag pole erected last week at the intersection of Center and Los Angeles streets, are the words, "Don't Hitch Here." They are raised letters, blown in the mold when the casting was made, and cannot be rubbed out. This base, or rather sleeve, that fits over the pole, was part of a lamp post that some erratic auto driver ran into one night and so badly damaged it that it had to be retired. This inscription might be appropriate and necessary if... C. W. Peck has brought suit against the Crown Stage for $109. The plaintiff alleges that on July 4 a stage ran into his automobile on the Santa Ana Newport Beach road. Pack declares that the stage was on the wrong side of the road. The damages asked is on a repair bill. Capt. Victor Schumacher, of Fullerton, was in town a few days ago on a business trip. Henry Bock died at his home on North Olive street at 9 o'clock Monday night after a short illness from pneumonia. He was 68 years of age, and leaves a wife, two sons and two daughters. Funeral services were held yesterday afternoon at Backs & Terry's parlors, interment being in Anaheim cemetery. The local Red Cross chapter this week received 900 dollars' worth of material which will be manufactured into warm garments for the soldier boys. The society can usefully employ a few more sewers if the ladies who care to volunteer their aid will apply, at headquarters in the Hartman building. PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Rev. C. Blanchard Hatch, pastor, corner of Cypress and North Claudina streets. Services next Sunday. Morning sermon at 11 o'clock, by the pastor. Subject: "Nations Born in a Day." Bible school at 9:45 A.M.

Wednesday evening conference and prayer at 8 o'clock. Mr. Dickel went out into his garden, gathered a supply for dinner from his own vines, and from six pods he took ten beans that measured 15 inches when placed end to end. This is an average of an inch and a half per bean, which everybody must acknowledge is a remarkable size, even though they grew in the fertile soil of Anaheim and were husbanded by our most efficient agriculturist. Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Dickel went up to Los Angeles Sunday to meet their son, Ted, who was on his way from Nevada to Duncan, Arizona, where he was going to inspect a mine. Having a short layoff at Los Angeles while transferring, the old folks were on hand to make the time pleasant for him.

Imprinted on the ornamental base of the steel flag pole erected last week at the intersection of Center and Los Angeles streets, are the words, "Don't Hitch Here." They are raised letters, blown in the mold when the casting was made, and cannot be rubbed out. This base, or rather sleeve, that fits over the pole, was part of a lamp post that some erratic auto driver ran into one night and so badly damaged it that it had to be retired. This inscription might be appropriate and necessary if the pole stood in some other town (we are a-naming of no names), but on the busiest corner of busy Anaheim, where a bewildered traffic officer sometimes finds it difficult to prevent congestion, it is a joke. Dr. Clarence Beebe and Miss Emma Grlesmer were married on Friday, August 16, at the home of the bride's parents in Los Angeles. Both these young people are graduates of the Anaheim high school and were exceedingly popular among their schoolmates. Clarence Beebe recently graduated from the L. A. Dental Collefe and is in the dental reserve corps of the army, expected to be called shortly to active duty. The bridge at Yorba, crossing the Santa Ana river on the most direct route through the Santa Ana canyon from Fullerton, is open to traffic. Many people have been avoiding that route, thinking that it was necessary to ford the stream. Suit for divorce has been filed by Olive A. Hadley against Harry B. Hadley. Williams & Rutan are attorneys for plaintiff. Mrs. Pauline McAdoo, of Los Angeles, was visiting her father, L. Nemetz, Saturday and Sunday. Just a few days more of the SEASON END CLEARANCE SALES Merchandise from every department is being offered at very SUBSTANTIAL SAVINGS! Falkenstein's Department Store SAVINGS! Falkenstein's Department Store C. A. Harnois, the bill poster man, who owns boards in 14 Southern California towns, has a contract to post bills advertising the play, "To Hell With the Kaiser," but Mr. Harnois declines to stick up "All Highest's" picture unless he is permitted to paste a sheet of paper over the face. Wherever he has pasted up the Kaiser's phiz heretofore the small boy and the brickbat have combined to seriously damage his steel boards. A. Bayliss went up to Ventura a few days ago and purchased a bean thresher, and is going to do his patriotic duty by helping take care of the bean crop. The machine will be delivered here by the first of the month. The courts here have another Pressel case. It has had a number of contests that grew out of the separation of Rosalle Pressel from G. Fred Pressel. One concerned damages alleged to have come because Mrs. Pressel was accused of poisoning Pressel. The newest case is one in which the wife alleges cruelty and asks for $100 a month separate maintenance. The case was transferred here from Los Angeles. A warrant has been issued for the arrest of J. C. Gow, charged with forgery. It is alleged that he signed the name of a representative of the Randolph Marketing Co. to a check for $200. The check was on a Los Angeles bank. Albert Graham swore to the complaint. The council ordered that the ornamental street lights be curtailed, putting on only the top lights every night except Saturday, when the full cluster will be used. All private lights used for advertising purposes are dispensed with. The Fullerton district has a big crop of beans this year. The Bastanchury Ranch Company has commenced harvesting its crop from 2,000 acres and expects an output of about 10,000 sacks. This company has about 1,500 acres of blackeyes and 500 acres of limas. D. J. Bastanchury also has 500 acres in beans. Prices for the season have not been fixed here but it is believed the entire crop will move at good prices this season. There are many other smaller growers in this part of the county. Because he failed to deliver 900 boxes of oranges to the Placentia Mutual Orange Association, Aug. Plepenbrink was Thursday made defendant in a suit for $450. The complaint, filed by Attorneys Williams & Rutan, states that Plepenbrink was a member of the association, and signed an agreement to deliver his fruit to the association to be packed and marketed, or forfeit 50 cents a box for every box he failed to deliver. The complaint states that between March 15 and 31 of this year, the defendant sold 900 boxes of oranges outside the association. For driving an automobile while intoxicated, causing the injury of four Home Guard officers, W. E. Wright of Fullerton was on Monday sentenced to San Quentin for a term of not over five years. Wright drove the automobile that on May 20 ran down and injured Capt. Koepsel, Lieuts. Elliott and Hayden of Santa Ana, and Lieut. Smith of Orange. The guardsmen were taking part in a patriotic demonstration at Fullerton when Wright, in spite of warnings to stop, drove down upon the officers. Wright was tried and convicted. A hard fight for probation was made for him by Attorneys Leonard Evans and Clyde Bishop. Probation was denied by Judge Thomas.
