M. Menges of Fullerton and also entered the office of Dr. Mitchell, where nothing was taken on account of being unable to open the safe, is under arrest at Santa Barbara, a circular letter bearing the picture of the man, whose name is Frank Collins, having been received by City Marshal Myers.

Collins was in Fullerton three or four days before the robbery and spent considerable time about the pool halls. When asked what his occupation was he said he was an oil worker, but he was under suspicion, as his hands did not look as though he had ever done any manual labor. He is accused of stealing gold, dope and Liberty bonds. Andrew Carnegie, who died at his summer home, Lennox, Mass., Monday left libraries in 3000 American cities to stand as monuments to his memory. The Anaheim city library is one of them, $10,000 of Mr. Carnegie's money going into it, the balance being paid by the city. Mr. Carnegie's benefactions aggregated $350,833,000 during his lifetime, and yet he left a fortune of $300,000,000 at his death. The stars and stripes at the Anaheim library floated at half mast Tuesday. Funeral of Christina, the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L. J.

Mr. Hausladen came here from Whittier six years ago, and purchased the ranch from David Bertsch for $16,000. The ranch is set to Valencias with the exception of an acre planted to lemons. It is one of the finest orchards in this section, and its fruit brings the highest price in the eastern markets. Mr. Hausladen says his family will move back to Whittier if they sell, but he prefers living in this section. Discharged from the naval service on Thursday, married on Sunday and departing for Honolulu on Tuesday is the whirlwind record made by Irwine Fuller," son of Mr. and Mrs. E. I.

Capt. Alexander Henry has just received the following letter from Congressman Wm. Kettner relative to the captured German cannon Anaheim is going to get from the government: Mr. Alexander N. Henry, Anaheim, California. Dear brother Henry: I desire to acknowledge receipt of your letter of July 23rd concerning the bill I introduced for a war trophy for the city of Anaheim. No action has been taken so far on the hundreds of bills introduced for cannon and war trophies. It is thought, however, that the bill, which was introduced to divide them up according to States, will eventually pass, and the division will be made upon the basis of the number of men in the service. I admire the spirit of the people of Anaheim in creating a park to be called "Liberty Park." It is a splendid memorial to our fighting men, and one which can be enjoyed by the living in the years to come. No city can afford to overlook the opportunity of providing a playground for its citizens, and I am glad that the city of Anaheim is making this step forward. With hearty good wishes for the success of the horse with human intelligence, is another special act which will be at Anaheim in the very near future, and in order that the ladies may see the very latest Paris and New York fashions, Mile.

The score was 2482 to 2702, which is a mighty poor showing. Elker, Fisher, Handleman, Holliday and Vanatta composed the local team, and these gentlemen can easily score 2800 when they are in conditions. In addition to the league contest there was an exciting preliminary game when Mrs. Meador of Los Angeles, champion woman bowler of the Pacific Coast, defeated Wm. Gordon of Santa Ana by a score of 470 to 464. NOTICE OF ASSESSMENT Anaheim Products Company: Formerly Union Brewing Company of Anaheim.
