R. Fuller, owner of the Clark line, in payment for the business and equipment. The stock is valued at $1.00 a share. A home belonging to H. Madliner, three miles south of town, was destroyed by fire Saturday. A small amount of furniture was saved. J. D. Heitsheusen on Saturday sold his grove west of Fullerton to J. H. Wents, the sale being made by Frank Baum. The place contains 8½ acres, set to four-year old Valencias. Mr. Heitsheusen purchased the place some months ago from Fritz Kluewer and Mrs. Leveck. The Union Oil Company has put the first load of material on the ground for the Chapman home place well, the lumber coming from an abandoned well on the Bastanchury lease. The new location is on a ten-acre tract owned by C. C. Chapman adjoining his home ranch on one side and the townsite of Placentia on the other. It is just west of the end of Santa Fe avenue, and nearly two miles from the Chapman gusher. The board of trade has secured the New Grand theatre for the meeting of the Tri-Counties Reforestation Committee which is to be held in this city on October 9. It is expected two or three hundred visitors from the three George Orasco and Lupe Silva, both of Placentia, have been granted a license to wed. Mrs. Innes Henry and daughter, Geraldine, and Mrs. Thos. Johnson of Orange, left Sunday for a month's outing at Seal Beach. Last Thursday while riding in an automobile with her daughter, Genevieve, Mrs. W. J. Gleason of the Ball Road fell from the car and was seriously injured. Mrs. Gleason was changing from the tonneau to the front seat while the car was in motion and fell from the running board. She was taken at once to the office of a physician where it was found she had sustained a fractured skull and the rupture of an artery. Latest reports are to the effect that she is recovering from the injuries. Nine bids for the $116,000 bond issue of the Anaheim school district, recently approved by the voters, were opened by the supervisors and the issue was sold to the William R. Staats Company of Los Angeles, which offered a premium of $1258.50. Other bidders and the premium offered by each are as follows: State Board of Control, $1001.50; First National Bank of Santa Ana, $800; Torrance-Marshall Company, $383; Lumberman's Trust Company, $713; Bank of Italy, $326; Security Trust and Savings Bank, $1235; Rollins and Son, $800; McDonnell and Company, San Francisco, $688.

It is expected two or three hundred visitors from the three counties will be present, as this session will be one of extreme importance. The board of trade will arrange for the entertainment of the members. In the apportionment of elementary Orange county received $4239. The school funds made July 9 by the state number of pupils in the county on June 30, 1918, the date on which the apportionment was computed, was 7065. C. C. Jenness is leaving for a trip to his former home in the middle west, which will keep him away from Anaheim for many weeks, unless he gets homesick and breaks his visit short of present expectations. First he will stop at Minneapolis, then make a leisurely tour through Iowa, finally bringing up at Milwaukee. It is 45 years since he saw Milwaukee and 23 since he left Iowa, consequently he expects to see many changes. Anticipating that his friends will kill the fatted calf when they see him coming, and also have many yellow-legged chickens and other good things to eat prepared to offer him, Mr Jenness had a new set of teeth made and in good working shape just before his departure, in order that nothing could prevent him enjoying himself to the fullest extent while among his old friends. The commercial secretaries of Southern California will meet at Newport Beach Saturday, and an interesting session is predicted by Secretary Whitaker of this city. Secretaries of all the boards of trade and chambers of commerce in the seven southern counties are entitled to seats at these meetings and privileged to take part in the proceedings. Although there is no organization and no official business is transacted, much is accomplished through interchange of ideas. The Supreme Court of California has affirmed the judgment of the Orange County Superior Court in the suit of George G. Tucker against John Beneke and Geo. F. Hanson, according to certified copy of the opinion received here today. Plaintiff's appeal from a ruling of the local court denying a motion for a new trial was also dismissed. Tucker sued for damages alleged to have been sustained through trading a 10-acre ranch at Anaheim to defendants for two lots at Portland, Oregon, which has had not seen. Tucker alleged the value of the Portland lots had been misrepresented, but judgment was granted in favor of the defendants, the court holding that there had been no misrepresentations with intent to defraud. Plaintiff asked for a new trial, which was denied, and then filed an appeal. Doug Rose of the Columbia lease came in Saturday on his usual weekly business trip.

Local Notes In response to a letter written by Secretary Whitaker of the board of trade, District Secretary Waldron of the board of fire underwriters of the Pacific announced that he would be in Anaheim this week for the purpose of making a re-survey of property and conditions relative to establishing a new insurance rate. It is expected that the rate will be considerably lowered as a result of his visit. The carcass of a large sea monster that had washed up on the sands at Seal Beach attracted considerable attention last week. W. H. Warburton, the life guard, calls it a "whale threater," a sea animal that makes life miserable for whales. He says they seldom get this far north, being found generally off the coast of Mexico and South America. The carcass was about thirty-five feet long and it was quite a curiosity. The trustees have announced that all city employees who have been in their employ for one year will be entitled to a 10 day's vacation with full pay. Sam Cabaillero, 19 years of age, nearly broke up the Mexican circus that is playing at Placentia, Sunday night, when he eloped with Regnaldo Ortego, 12 years of age, also one of the leading attractions of the show. Sam was an employee of the circus and so was little Miss Regnaldo. They "beat it" late Sunday night because their two hearts beat as one. The little girl is the daughter of Thomas Ortego, one of the proprietors of the circus, and he Mr. and Mrs. G. M. Simpson have returned from the east where they spent five weeks visiting. City Attorney Ames is a lonesome man, his family having moved into a cottage at the beach, where they expect to remain during July and August. Warning. Don't absent mindedly lean against a lamp post, or try to embrace one after dark. They are being treated to a nice new coat of brilliant green. Clyde Webb, who recently returned from France, having received his discharge from the army, was the guest of honor at a dinner given by Mr. and Mrs. M. B. Tomlin at their home on Adele street Sunday. A number of friends of the young soldier were present to extend a welcome home. Joseph Holtz, with Clyde Bishop as his attorney, has filed both petition for letters of administration on the estate of Joseph F. Veith, deceased, and for probate of Veith's alleged will, dated February 18, 1919. The will, which was executed without witnesses, gives the entire estate, consisting of $8,000 in cash and Liberty Bonds, to a sister of deceased, Mrs. Joseph Holtz, of Silverado. The nearest of kin besides the sister are deceased's father, who lives at Hollister, and two brothers, Frank and Vincent. There is a certain element of mystery about the finding of two sacks partly filled with lima beans, totaling about sixty pounds, near the Irvine hog ranch. There is no mystery about the beans for they are ordinary healthy looking specimens and they are securely in the possession of Sher- Personal Mention Rev. and Mrs. G. R. Messias and daughter, Priscilla, spent two or three days last week visiting at Glendale. Miss Bessie Thompson, a former resident of this city, was here the past week from Riverside, the guest of Misses Lela and Irma Steadman. Mr. and Mrs. John Hartung went down to Long Beach Friday and expect to spend the summer season there. W. P. Webb and family spent Sunday at the beach, returning home in the evening. Mrs. H. H. Benjamin and sister, Miss Florence Sliter, received word Monday morning that their mother had died at Aberdeen, S. D. They left Tuesday to attend the funeral. Mrs. and Mrs. George Miller and their little son left on Sunday for Imperial, where Mr. Miller will engage in ranching. Miss Esther Fernkopf, who has been visiting with the Hocull family for several weeks, has returned to her home in Holton, Kansas. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Arthur and Mr. and Mrs. Arthur McAulay left Sunday on a trip to Yosemite, traveling by automobile. They expect to be gone about two weeks. Mrs. F. S. Gates was visiting her daughter, Mrs. M. G. Anlauf at Santa Paula last week. The three children of Mr. and Mrs. Anlauf, who had been visiting here accompanied her home. nearly broke up the Mexican circus that is playing at Placentia, Sunday night, when he eloped with Regnaldo Ortego, 12 years of age, also one of the leading attractions of the show. Sam was an employee of the circus and so was little Miss Regnaldo. They "beat it" late Sunday night because their two hearts beat as one. The little girl is the daughter of Thomas Ortego, one of the proprietors of the circus, and he wants his daughter back, perhaps not so much for the daughter's sake for the show's welfare. The Fullerton officers have been asked to be on the lookout for the young people and to arrest both if found. The little Miss was dressed in circus costume when she gave herself into the arms of her gay young Lothario, and it is supposed that he was dressed in the pink of fashion, from a Mexican standpoint. Marshal Myers says he can arrest them for exceeding the speed limit. Two dental offices at Fullerton were entered by burglars Sunday night. From Dr. G. W. Menges' office, the thief got two tubes of dental narcotics and a vial of a solution used in dentistry. No attempt was made to take valuable dental tools. At Dr. Goodwin's office the combination of the outer door of the safe was worked, and the knob of the inner door was knocked off. However, entrance to the interior was not gained. Nothing was taken from this office. Plans are under way for paving three-fourths of a mile of road at Olinda, and the county engineer was yesterday instructed to prepare plans and specifications for the work. The pavement is to be eighteen feet wide, and the road extends eastward from the present pavement to serve oil territory not now connected with the good roads system. The board also passed a resolution declaring a strip of the Olinda road, forty feet wide which has been in use as a highway, to be a county public thoroughfare. Out of a class of five, only one succeeded in winning his American citizenship papers in the superior court here Monday. He was James William Bishop, a business man of Buena Park. Douglas Ross-case was continued to July 23 for taking the oath, and three cases were continued to the There is a certain element of mystery about the finding of two sacks partly filled with lima beans, totaling about sixty pounds, near the Irvine hog ranch. There is no mystery about the beans for they are ordinary healthy looking specimens and they are securely in the possession of Sheriff Jackson. The only mystery is where they were taken from and why they were hid. Two men, believed to have stolen the beans, were seen by the light of their campfire near the ranch the other night but when officers were called to the scene the following day hte men had disappeared. The beans were found hid nearby and confiscated pending further developments. M. Antone, who runs a poolroom at Sonoratown near the sugar factory, was fined $10 by Judge Cox for keeping his place open after 11 o'clock. Hereafter, he declared, the law should be obeyed in his dump. Stockholders of the Santiago Orange Growers' Association held a meeting at Campbell's hall Saturday afternoon for the consideration of the proposal for the purchase of 41,000 acres of timber land in Lassen county, and the increasing of the capital stock of the supply company of the exchange to $4,000,000. A talk by Mr. Barnes, secretary of the supply company, demonstrated the desirability of protecting the growers' interests, through making provision for box material. When a vote was taken, the project was given unanimous approval of the stockholders. Lieut. Clyde Slater of Orange, recently discharged from the aviation service after several months' service overseas during which he was injured in the leg when his airplane crashed into a train, has been employed by the supervisors in the county auditor's office to check up the maintenance cost of Orange county good roads since the system was turned over by the county highway commission. "Old Man" Simon, an aged burro, died at the county park Monday of old age. A man now twenty-five years old remembers seeing this burro when he was a very young boy so it must home in Holton, Kansas. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Arthur and Mr. and Mrs. Arthur McAulay left Sunday on a trip to Yosemite, traveling by automobile. They expect to be gone about two weeks. Mrs. F. S. Gates was visiting her daughter, Mrs. M. G. Anlauf at Santa Paula last week. The three children of Mr. and Mrs. Anlauf, who had been visiting here accompanied her home. William Kohlenberger has been piloting the motor fire truck for several weeks, as special relief man. When Bill gets the word he steps on it and just simply disappears in the direction of the fire. Bill is all right. Officer O. B. Baxter of the Anaheim police force left a few days ago on his ten days vacation, and will visit at Bishop and Silver Lake. E. C. Schleuter, who has been conducting a meat market at Norwalk for the Anaheim Beef & Provision Co., has been transferred to the company's plant in this city. Henry Burdorf of Fullerton was in town Wednesday transacting business and greeting his many old friends here. Mr. Burdorf is one of the pioneer walnut growers of this section, but lately relinquished his ranch to his children. Hugo Wetzel, mayor of Richfield, was a business visitor in town a few days ago. Mr. Wetzel has valuable realty in the oil zone, and expects to realize handsomely from his holdings, as development work is being rapidly pushed all around him. Dad Kennedy, who left here two months ago on a visit to his old home in Pennsylvania, returned Sunday and is again in charge of the Smoke House. He went east by way of New Orleans and Washington, returning over the southern route, stopping a while to visit in San Francisco, where he formerly lived. Cards have been received announcing the marriage of Harry Armstrong a former well-known resident of this city, to Miss Edith Stewart. The wedding occurred at Vancouver, B.C., on July 16.

Out of a class of five, only one succeeded in winning his American citizenship papers in the superior court here Monday. He was James William Bishop, a business man of Buena Park. Douglas Ross-case was continued to July 23 for taking the oath, and three cases were continued to the next citizenship class on October 20, these petitioners being Charles Derige, Carl G. O. Gutzman and Christian Frederick Carl Maahe. Local officers have been asked by the Ventura sheriff to be on the lookout for Donald Fisk of that place, wanted on a felony charge. Fisk is described as 25 years of age, 5 feet 8 inches in height, smooth shaven, with blue eyes and brown hair. He has tattoo marks on both arms and is a returned service man, so may be in uniform. He left Ventura with a man and woman in a Buick car. Shortly before three o'clock Sunday morning neighbors discovered that the house belonging to Mrs. Isabel Hahn on the corner of Broadway and Bush street, was on fire. The house is occupied by the LaPorte family but Mr. and Mrs. LaPorte were away from home, having gone to Corona the previous day on a visit. Bill Eule discovered the blaze and woke up the neighborhood by yelling "fire." Al Nowotny sent in a call for fire department, but the fire had gained such headway that nothing could be done to save it. The origin is unknown, but crossed wires are mentioned as the probable cause. The loss is probably $1500. PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Rev. C. B. Hatch, Pastor.

Harry enlisted in the Canadian army and served over a year with the colors during the war. R. E. Vaughn has been at the sanitarium seriously ill with heart disease for the past couple of weeks, but is now almost entirely recovered. While visiting his old home in Missouri last winter Mr. Vaughn was stricken with the flu. The attack was a severe one, and although he recovered sufficiently to enable him to return to California in the spring, he still suffered from the effects of it, and his recent attack of heart disease was one of the results. Harry Fellinge, M. C. Goff and Al Ernest Heying returned the latter part of the week from a two weeks' outing. They traveled up the valley in an auto, going as far north as Yosemite park, camping and feasting on speckled trout, rabbits and home cooking. It was an enjoyable trip. Louis Bushard is recovering at the sanitarium from a surgical operation performed by Dr. Johnston upon the kidneys. Several gallstones were removed, one of them quite large. Mr. Bushard is able to take nourishment, and it is hoped may be able to return to his home before long. It may be possible that an operation upon the other kidney may be performed as soon as he regains his strength.

Worthington, 21, and Mary E. Grosch, 18, both of Los Angeles, who at 2:30 Tuesday morning routed County Clerk Backs and City Recorder Heathman out of bed in order that they might tie up for life. They were accompanied by relatives and friends, there being about ten in the party. They drove into Santa Ana about 2 o'clock Tuesday morning, stopping at the city hall, where Desk Officer I. N. Barnett advised them as to the "ropes." Backs was called first and then Heathman, and by the time the latter arrived at the clerk's office the license had been issued and the contracting parties were ready to take their vows. It was just fifteen minutes to three when they were pronounced man and wife by Heathman. The happy couple followed by other members of the party, returned to Los Angeles at once. SHORT WEIGHT BREAD SOLD IN THE COUNTY County Sealer McPhee After Violators of the Law. As a result of complaints of short-weight bread being brought into and sold in this city, County Sealer George McPhee Monday began an investigation that will presumably put a crimp in the practice of foisting off a twenty-two ounce loaf for twenty-four ounces, and unless those alleged to be responsible for sake their evil ways, there will be something doing in Judge Cox's court room muy pronto. The law prescribes the weight of the standard small loaf of bread as one pound avoirdupois, and the weight of the standard large loaf as twenty-four ounces, the loaves to weigh this amount twelve hours after baking. The twenty-four ounce loaf is in most favor and is most called for by weighing these at the time and again weighing them at intervals since, his object being to determine what the actual shrinkage is, so that he may be in position to act fairly in handling cases of short-weight bread in future. The first weighing of the samples taken by McPhee were weighed in the presence of the people at the bakeries and grocery stores where the bread was exposed for sale, the second weighing being made today at McPhee's office at the court house before a witness, the result showing she shrinkage to be very small, running from one-quarter ounce on the twenty-four ounce loaf twenty-four hours after baking to one-half ounce on the twenty-four ounce loaf thirty-six hours after baking, while some of the samples had lost so little in weight after twelve hours from making as to render the discrepancy hardly appreciable. With this data as a starter, Sealer McPhee will in future require all bakers and distributors of bread to comply strictly with the law and proposes to confiscate all short-weight bread found by him and prosecute those responsible. Incidentally the samples of bread used by McPhee in the demonstration were sent by him to the Santa Ana Day Nursery.—Register. ANNUAL COLORADO PICNIC All who have ever lived in Colorado are called to meet under the auspices of the Colorado State Society for the great annual picnic reunion, all-day Saturday, August 2nd, 1919, in Sycamore Grove, Los Angeles. Come as early as you can and spend the day with friends. We will have county registers and headquarters so you can find the old neighbors even with two thousand present. There will be a brief program opening about two o'clock, but the main purpose will be to have a good time. We want to see all the tourists and visitors from the old home state and a special invitation goes out for all the soldier boys who ever lived in Colorado. Bring your baskets well filled.

The law prescribes the weight of the standard small loaf of bread as one pound avoirdupois, and the weight of the standard large loaf as twenty-four ounces, the loaves to weigh this amount twelve hours after baking. The twenty-four ounce loaf is in most favor and is most called for by the local trade. Although there are seven bakeries in Santa Ana, and other towns of importance in the county are equally well supplied, approximately sixty per cent of the bread used in Orange county comes from outside points. Los Angeles bakeries furnish the greater share and the product is distributed by speedy trucks that traverse the county in all directions, making it possible to deliver to customers early in the forenoon of each day. This bread comes into competition with the local product and because of the fact that the distributers have no license to pay and sell in such small quantities as to be classed as retailers as well as wholesalers, there is and has been considerable feeling among county bakers against the outsiders, which attitude is not at all modified by the well-founded report that recently the product distributed by certain of the outside people has been short of the weight required by law. County Sealer McPhee has been out of town for the last six weeks engaged in other lines of activities coming within the purview of his department and so has not been able to keep a check on the distribution of bread, but yesterday he visited the local bakeries and took samples of bread, registers and headquarters so you can find the old neighbors even with two thousand present. There will be a brief program opening about two o'clock, but the main purpose will be to have a good time. We want to see all the tourists and visitors from the old home state and a special invitation goes out for all the soldier boys who ever lived in Colorado. Bring your baskets well filled. Coffee will be served free to all who buy the beautiful new souvenir badges. TELEPHONE STRIKE OFF Telephone business in Orange county returned to normal Monday morning at 8 o'clock, when electricians and operators returned to work, following settlement of the strike started on June 16. Old employees were given their former positions and those who returned before Wednesday afternoon by 5 o'clock retained their seniority. The strikers returned to work following instructions from international officials. Sufficient concessions and allowances were conceded by both the wire administration and the telephone company officials to make continuing of the strike unnecessary. Retroactive pay allowances to January 1, 1919, were assured on a rate of pay approximating 10 per cent increase for men and 20 per cent increase for operators in Orange county. According to the statement or a union official, the company agrees not to discriminate against union men or women, and to arbitration of all differences of an individual or collective nature by the committee system. Anaheim Gazette, per year, $1.50, payable in advance.
