Held to answer in superior court to a charge of having been intoxicated ANOTHER CAR MITCHELLS RECEIVED BY WALTER & DAY Mitchell Owners in This Territory Now Total 36. Walter & Day, who unloaded a car containing four Mitchell autos yesterday, have these new cars on their floor this morning and extend an invitation to the general public to call and see these 1920 machines. During the past ten days they have sold and delivered five new Mitchells to Northern Orange County customers and these sales make a total of 36 cars in this territory sold and delivered. Mr. Day of the firm says that the greatest boost for the Mitchell is the fact that the firm receives little complaint after the car begins its service. A purchaser calls and gets his car, is back for a couple of times for some small adjustment and then is gone and rarely returns, except in passing. Mitchell owners drop in and tell us of the wonderful performance of their car. Not many days ago according to Mr. Day, a Mitchell owner called at our place and reminded us of our claim that in selling him a Mitchell we would be doing him a favor, and said that he was passing and simply dropped in to tell us he was now ready to admit that Walter & Day had favored him when they persuaded him to buy the Victory Mitchell, that its performance was even greater than had been claimed, and that he was surprised at the gas mileage and low oil consumption, and had not been out anything on its unkeen and yet he Officer Tex Choate rounded up a bunch of Mexicans who were carousing around and fighting Saturday night.

Held to answer in superior court to a charge of having been intoxicated while driving an automobile, Dolores Rodriguez was in the county jail following his preliminary hearing. After an alleged wild ride in which his automobile was said to have bowled over several oil station signs, Rodriguez came to a sudden halt at Garden Grove when his machine crashed into one owned by Frank Launders and which was standing unoccupied by the side of a curb. Launders' machine was wrecked. Rodriguez said in court that he had no recollection of any of the circumstances connected with the accident. All he knew was that when he had partially recovered from his alleged "souse" he found himself in jail, he said. He had drunk a half gallon of "dago red," he told the court. Launders gave testimony, as did also Thomas Natland and J. M. Clark, constable at Garden Grove. District Attorney Menton handled the case for the state. Deputies from the sheriff's office are seeking to place in custody two men, said to be buyers of cull walnuts, who are alleged to have entered a tent near Placentia and to have stolen $155 in cash and a revolver. The two men, according to an account of the robbery given at the office of the district attorney, drove up to the tent in an automobile. Inside the tent was Mrs. Paulino Martinez. Her husband was at some distance away, irrigating. At the request of one of the strangers Mrs. Martinez went to call her husband to the tent, the two men having told her they wanted to buy some walnuts. While Mrs. Martinez was away one of the men is alleged to have taken the money from underneath the mattress of a bed. When Mr. and Mrs. Martinez returned to the tent they found that they had been robbed. The men in the automobile had driven claim that in selling him a Mitchell we would be doing him a favor, and said that he was passing and simply dropped in to tell us he was now ready to admit that Walter & Day had favored him when they persuaded him to buy the Victory Mitchell, that its performance was even greater than had been claimed, and that he was surprised at the gas mileage and low oil consumption, and had not been out anything on its upkeep, and yet he had used it through the oil fields off the pavements, and had given it such use that if it had not been absolutely alright, it would not have stood the treatment it had been given. WALTER NAUGLE LEAVES FOR ISLAND OF CUBA Will Resume His Old Position as Chemist in Big Sugar Plant. Walter Naugle left Monday for Cuba, where he will resume his position as a chemist in one of the largest sugar factories in the island. He will work there through a six months' campaign, and will probably return in time to go through next year's busy season with the Anaheim plant. Walter is an expert chemist, having learned the business at the Anaheim factory, and he commends a high salary in the Cuban plant. On his return from Cuba after his last trip Walter arrived just in time to register under the second call and get into the army. His company made tratic effort to keep him on the job, representing that he was worth more to his country in a factory using his knowledge in making sugar than he would be in a trench using his hands to puncture Huns. But he stayed with th colors until he received an honorable discharge. Although he draws a high salary in his present position, he will probably take another course of study and qualify for a further advancement in the industry. DEUINQUENT TAX NOTICE County taxes become delinquent on Monday, December 1st. Remittances should be mailed in time to reach this Nothing reflects the prosperity of a town so accurately as growing bank statements. On another page of this paper will be found a statement of the Anaheim National Bank, issued on Nov. 17. It shows deposits to the amount of $602,803.11, against $383,-571.25, shown by the statement of March 4. This is an increase of $219,-231.86, or nearly 60 per cent in eight months' time. This statement proves that the Anaheim National is a flourishing institution in a prosperous town. Under the efficient and popular management of President W. A. Dolan and Cashier A. B. McCord, this bank has steadily advanced its business in war times and peace times, but the increase during the past summer has been phenomenal. Al Carrisoza had an uncomfortable ten or fifteen minutes Sunday evening in the Santa Ana jail when fire broke out in his clothing and he seemed too drunk to make any effort to fight the blaze. The fire started in the watch pocket of his pants. He yelled for help and his cries were heard by some one near the city jail, who informed the police. By the time officers got to the place and Officer Combs could cut his trousers loose, the man had sustained quite a severe burn. Before he could be taken before His Honor, City Recorder Heathman, Monday morning, it was necessary for one of the officers to purchase a pair of everalls for him. He was given a straight jail sentence and in the meantime he will be investigated. At the request of one of the strangers Mrs. Martinez went to call her husband to the tent, the two men having told her they wanted to buy some walnuts. While Mrs. Martinez was away one of the men is alleged to have taken the money from underneath the mattress of a bed. When Mr. and Mrs. Martinez returned to the tent they found that they had been robbed. The men in the automobile had driven away. NC4 DRIVEN BY FORD MOTORS "Engine functioned perfectly," said Lieutenant Commander Head, who commanded the big seaplane. The Ford Motor Company has just received official advice from the Navy Department that it was four Ford Liberty motors—all built in the Ford Motor Company's shops at Detroit—which furnished the power that drove the NC4 to victory in its recent record breaking flight across the Atlantic from Trepassey, Newfoundland to Plymouth, England, a distance of 4,000 miles. They were regular stock motors built during the war as a part of the Ford Liberty motor production. Upon his arrival in Lisboh, Portugal, Lieutenant Commander Read said, "The engines functioned perfectly all the way from America to Portugal." And American naval officers who thoroughly inspected the NC4 upon its arrival at Plymouth, England, stated that the big seaplane was in even better condition than when it left America. The NC4 flight, which has meant a triumph for American engineering skill, also adds another record to Ford achievement. Although he draws a high salary in his present position, he will probably take another course of study and qualify for a further advancement in the industry.
