NET CONTAINER LAW HAS NEW PROVISIONS EXTENDED TO INCLUDE ALL COMMODITIES OFFERED FOR SALE IN PACKAGES County Sealer of Weights and Measures McPhee Tells of the Amendments—Has been Attending School of Instruction at Oakland. County Sealer of Weights and Measures George McPhee was here yesterday on business connected with the conduct of his office and in conversation with a Gazette man took occasion to comment on the amendments to the weights and measures laws obtained through the last legislature among which are the changes in the Net Container law, which was amended to read as follows: "The provisions of this McPhee has just returned from Oakland where he went to attend a school of instruction held under the auspices of the State Weights and Measures Department at which every county in the State but two were represented. The sessions lasted three days and the delegates had the opportunity of seeing demonstrations of all the most modern types of weighing and measuring apparatus, explanation of each being made by representatives of the different manufacturing firms placing them on the market. A feature of the conference was the report of the Sealer of Weights and Measures for Alameda county which among other interesting items showed that as the result of a recent campaign 15,000 bottles and over one thousand glass graduates were condemned and confiscated in the drug stores of the city of Oakland and other towns in the county, the graduates being inaccurately marked and the bottles being short measure all the way from five to twenty-five per cent. McPhee says he has not so far made close investigation of the Orange county drug stores, but just as soon as possible now he proposes to begin a thorough investigation with a view to correcting certain abuses reported as County Sealer of Weights and Measures George McPhee was here yesterday on business connected with the conduct of his office and in conversation with a Gazette man took occasion to comment on the amendments to the weights and measures laws obtained through the last legislature among which are the changes in the Net Container law, which was amended to read as follows: "The provisions of this act shall apply to foodstuffs and stuffs intended to be used or prepared for use as food or medicine for human beings and shall apply to any commodity when sold, offered for sale or exposed for sale in containers." According to Sealer McPhee, the net weight amendment of the National Department of Agriculture confines its effect to commodities intended to be used as food for human beings, and the California Net Container Act, prior to the referred to amendment, was likewise confined. The amendment however, extends the application of the act to include commodities other than food commodities when packed in containers. The Net Container Act has proven to be a very useful and necessary law and is being generally observed by all persons engaged in the packing of food ocmmodities in containers. The principle of the law is undebatable and such being the fact, it is surely wise to extend it to other commodities. There is absolutely no reason, according to McPhee, why a person purchasing a can of paint, a can of axlegrease, or any petroleum product in a container, should not be protected the same as he is in his food commodities. There is just as great a probability of deception and fraud in the sale of other commodities as there was in the sale of food commodities. The enforcement of this amendment however, should be along educational lines, McPhee suggested, and the public should be fully advised and instructed regarding its requirements and any infractions or violations should be met with tact and consideration. Another amendment to the net container act was the striking out of the provision for dry measure in the handling of commodities. The dry measure is an obsolete system of measurement which has never been used in the availance in the drug stores of the city of Oakland and other towns in the county, the graduates being inaccurately marked and the bottles being short measure all the way from five to twenty-five per cent. McPhee says he has not so far made close investigation of the Orange county drug stores, but just as soon as possible now he proposes to begin a thorough investigation with a view to correcting certain abuses reported as prevalent in the drug business.

Wilson & Bever, local contractors, have begun work upon an addition to St. Boniface's church on West Center and Palm streets, the dimensions being 63x78, occupying the vacant space on the corner. The addition will add about 300 seating capacity, the material being brick and tile to match the present structure. The new addition will cost $18,000. Wilson and Bever also have the contract to build a new school house at Olive costing $15,000. Owing to unavoidable delay in securing tile the contractors have been handicapped in their work and have been delayed three weeks in their labors on account of lack of material. However, this shortage has now been overcome and work will be rushed upon the structures which will be finished by October 15, when school opens there. The contractors greatly deplore the delay in their work but owing to a fire at Corona the tile was not obtainable.

Thayer Instantly Killed by His Machine Saturday. Charles H. Thayer, one of the best known ranchers in this section, was run over and instantly killed by a tractor at his ranch on the boulevard just north of town Saturday evening. The machine, a Fageol, was a new one, having been purchased by Mr. Thayer only a few days previously. The accident happened at six o'clock in the evening. Mr. Thayer was standing in front of the tractor, only a few feet from it, while his son Jesse cranked it. The machine was left in gear and it immediately started to move. Evidently Mr. Thayer failed to notice it was moving in time to get out of the way. He was caught under the wheels and his head crushed, death being instantaneous. The body was removed to Backs & Terry's parlors where the funeral was held yesterday morning. Rev. J. F. Humphrey having charge. Mr. Thayer had been a resident of Anaheim for twenty years. He leaves a widow, two sons and two daughters. The sons are Jesse and Charles, of this city, and the daughters are Mrs. Robert Peck and Mrs. Walter Revelle of Arizona. The daughters both arrived here in time for the funeral. W. H. Spake, a former well known resident of this city was in town on Monday from Pasadena.

Truck and Auto In Bad Smashup Captain Alexander Henry and Daughter-in-Law, Mrs. Innes Henry, injured in Collision—Four Santa Anans Hurt near Same Place. In an auto mixup on the boulevard near the county hospital Saturday afternoon Captain Alexander Henry, his daughter-in-law, Mrs. Innes Henry, and his granddaughter, Miss Geraldine Henry, were all more or less injured. Captain Henry was on his way to Orange to purchase powder for his cannon to be used at the celebration Tuesday, using his son's car with Miss Geraldine driving. At the sharp bend, where a side road runs off to the hospital, they met a truck driven by A. Walker of Los Angeles. Instead of keeping to his side of the road or slowing down to let the car pass, the driver of the truck cut across the boulevard, intending to take the side road to the hospital.

At the hospital where the injured man was taken it was found that he had sustained several bad cuts about the head and face and his back was severely wrenched.Mrs.Henry was confined to her bed for a day or two with a badly sprained leg.She also was cut over the right eye while Miss Geraldine escaped with a few minor bruises. Captain Henry remained at the hospital until Monday when he was brought to his home.His injuries were painful but will leave no permanent effect.The captain was considerably exercised over the fact that he was forced to violate his agreement to fire his cannon at the welcome home celebration Tuesday. Just a few minutes previously,near this same spot,a car belonging to A.C.Bowers of Santa Ana was wrecked in a collision.Four grown people and two children were riding in the car,the children being the only persons to escape injury They were all token to the county hospital for treatment.Mr.Bowers had one hand so badly crushed that it was necessary to amputate his fingers.

Secretary Billy Wallop of the Anaheim Union Water Company was elected by the board of directors on Saturday to be superintendent of the company, taking the place of R. J. McFadden, who resigned some weeks ago. Leo Sheridan, whi for five years past has been zanjero or this district, was selected to be secretary of the company. Mr. Sheridan is now at the office familiarizing himself with the duties of the place, and Mr. Wallop will this week resume his duties as superintendent. He has been secretary of the company for eight years, and leaves an enviable record behind him. During these eight years the auditing Twenty years ago Samuel Kraemer leased a portion of his land to oil men, but they being more or less skeptical as to its oil bearing qualities, made no effort to start drilling, being content to wait for future developments. Mr. Kraemer is of a geological turn of mind and recently has picked out locations for oil wells that have amply proven his divining theories. During the lapse of the past decade or two Mr. Kraemer waited patiently for some one to come forward and make alterations in the earth's crust upon his big rancho nestling in the foothills northeast of this city. His landed interests adjoin in part much of the area in the famous Olinda fields which have yielded up many wells that have been real bonanzas to their owners. The attention of two of the larger oil companies finally being directed to this territory, heretofore considered non-oil-bearing land, has been the means of startling the world in the production of a high gravity oil, and the Chapman and Kraemer wells recently brought in have brushed away all doubt regarding these new tracts, which are now daily adding vast volumes of petroleum to the State's output. Experts have repeatedly said that the activities so far undertaken have merely scratched the earth's surface and no doubt the future holds many surprises in the way of revealing the hidden treasures yet untouched by the hand of man. Mr. Kraemer holds to the theory that the half has not been told and looks for great expansion in the fields now being tested. This shrewd gentleman inclines to the belief that the oil strata deepens in the lower level stretches of land as the earth recedes from the broken hilltops and mountainous regions, but has no doubt but what oil exists here also, and the only question is regarding the depth to which one must go to penetrate the underground flow. Mr. Kraemer has given space on his rancho for a townsite and already upwards of 300 men are housed with their families in the new oil city which seems to come into existence by magic. Work shops of various kinds have been erected and the necessary equipment for the domestic comfort of the small army of men have been provid- Banner. St. Williams. of deposits in gold trowel to D.

Leo Sheridan, who for five years past has been zanjero for this district, was selected to be secretary of the company. Mr. Sheridan is now at the office familiarizing himself with the duties of the place, and Mr. Wallop will this week resume his duties as superintendent. He has been secretary of the company for eight years, and leaves an enviable record behind him. During these eight years the auditing committee, going annually over his books and accounts, have not found a single error. He has handled large sums of money for the company, and his books and accounts tally in every detail. That he will make a capable and efficient superintendent goes without saying. This is also true of Mr. Sheridan, who will undoubtedly make a first class secretary. Everett Hatfield, who has been head truck driver for the company for some time past, will succeed Mr. Sheridan as zanjero for this district. Mr. McFadden will shortly remove with his family to Serra Madre, where he will take up his residence for the benefit of his little daughter's health. He has severely flattering offers for his services in Los Angeles, and that he will make good admits of no doubt. He has been superintendent of the water company for a number of years, and takes with him to his new home the best wishes of a host of friends throughout Orange county. Nearly all the business houses in Anaheim were closed Tuesday, the proprietors and their employees mostly joining the strongs of people who crowded the county park. Mr. Kraemer has given space on his rancho for a townsite and already upwards of 300 men are housed with their families in the new oil city which seems to come into existence by magic. Work shops of various kinds have been erected and the necessary equipment for the domestic comfort of the small army of men have been provided for. The force of men is gradually being augmented and it is safe to say that with the rapid oil development there the population of this new balliwick will likewise increase wonderfully. Oil from the Placentia fields is now being pumped to the great refineries at El Segundo and the volume is ever increasing. Mr. Kraemer's income from his oil lands now has reached considerable proportions, but he pursues the even tenor of his ways and is a daily visitor in Anaheim from his palatial home in Placentia. His business interests here are quite extensive. According to a statement made by County Motor Policeman Ballard following his investigation of the accident at Culver's corner on the state highway Tuesday, in which three automobiles collided, the car driven by J. L. Byars of Santa Ana ran into one driven by G. E. Trittipo of Los Angeles. Trittipo lost control of his car as a result of the crash and it swung into one driven by S. I. Wilson of Irvine, according to Ballard. Damages were sustained by all three of the machines.
