It is situated between the Chapman and Kraemer gushers, its depth being 3300 feet. There are one hundred and ten million kidlets in the United States of all ages who are intimate friends of Buster Brown and his dog Tige. Buster Brown and Tige are coming to Anaheim as guests of the S. Q. R. Store. They will be here on Monday March 8, and the management of the store has made arrangements for them to greet their young friends at the New Grand theatre at 3:30 o'clock that afternoon. There will be a free entertainment that, it is promised, will amuse both young and old. Free souvenirs will be given to every boy and girl. A confusion of initials led to the report that S. W. McCulloch of Placentia, manager of the Placentia Orange Growers' Association, and well known in the northern part of the county, was among those injured in the Pacific Electric wreck at San Bernardino Saturday morning. The man who was injured was W. L. McCulloch, said to be employed in the oil fields. Reports were that he had sustained a fractured leg. S. W. McCulloch received inquiries from numbers of friends in various parts of Southern California, inquiring as to the extent of his injuries. He was not in the wreck, however, and was glad to be able to set at rest anxiety regarding his supposed hurts. Mrs. E. M. Polhemus visited with friends in town this week.

Webb, Jr., president of Anaheim Post, American Legion, last week received memorial diplomas for the families of the four dead Anaheim soldiers who died while fighting the enemy. The memorials were distributed by the French high commission under the direction of the French government, and, according to a letter directed to Mr. Webb, were in honor of the men who made the supreme sacrifice in the world war. They were issued to R. L. Green, next of kin Miss Vera Darney, sister, A. Bischof, next of kin William Bischof, father, T. L. Hays, next of kin S. M. Hays, father, Peter Stoffel, next of kin Lambert Stoffel, father. Mr. Webb mailed the memorials to the persons mentioned. The Orange Coutny Automobile Trades Association held a meeting last night at George Dunton's Ford garage in this city for the purpose of discussing the automobile show to be held here some time in the future. There is a proposition under consideration now to enlarge the scope of the show and make it an annual display of Orange county products. This matter was expected to be decided at the meeting last night. George Meyers made a trip to Tia Juana Saturday afternoon, returning on Sunday. Mr. Meyers says during his day he has visited many of the show places in this country and those of the southern republics, where he witnessed many thrills, but he says the place below the line has them all backed off the map. It was estimated that 35,000 people were at Tia Juana on Sunday, including many women. All kinds of gambling is conducted openly at the Casino, men and women alike playing the games. Hundreds of thousands of dollars are won and lost every day, and no one needs be thirsty if he has got the price.

Mrs. Lucy Baxter stumbled over a rug at her home on Broad street a day or two ago and broke her right ankle. She was alone at the time, but managed to get to the phone and call up her son, O. B. Baxter, at the police office. Anaheim Post, American Legion, now has a membership of more than 200, ten or fifteen new members being added each meeting night. President Webb says there are probably 300 others in this territory eligible to membership who ought to join. Spiritualistic mediums are supposed to call from the nebulous hence spirits of the departed and put them in communication with their sorrowing mortal friends. If some enterprising medium could materialize John Barleycorn and the other spirits that vanished with him on the first of last July and place them in touch with their thirsty mourners here on earth, he would do a land office business.

Washington. The captain is still hale and hearty, and his many friends extend congratulations and hope that he will enjoy many happy returns of the day. As an evidence that he is growing younger the captain exhibits the top of his head on which a luxurious crop of new hair is growing. This is gratifying but has its drawbacks, as he finds himself no longer eligible to a seat in the bald-headed row. The captain denies that he is wearing a goat gland. Jake Vetter who deserted the Tigers some weeks ago and joined Berger's Cubs, has returned to his first love, and the fans will welcome him back on the home diamond. He will be in the left field Sunday. Rain prevented the game Sunday between the home team and the Goodyear Rubber Co.

Upon the urgent solicitation of a number of citizens, John Cook, has consented to have his name placed upon the ballot for trustee at the April election. Mr. Cook is a large taxpayer, and has already served the city well as trustee, and has many friends who will rally to his support. Mr. Cook stands for solid improvements, and if elected will give a good account of his stewardship. Of the three retiring members of the present board Trustee Stark is the only one who consents to stand for re-election. Mr. Stark has already filed his nominating papers. V. W. LaMont presented his petition to the city clerk last week, making three candidates in the filed for the three vacancies. These three gentlemen are all well qualified and acceptable to a majority of the people, and as the wet and dry question can no longer cause a division and there is no issue before the people except the welfare and continued advancement of Anaheim, a matter on which everybody agrees, it is not likely there will be much of a contest in this election. Stanley Falkenstein has been ill during the week with influenza, but has recovered sufficiently to return to junior college. In addition to being among the first women to be selected to serve as trial jurors in Orange county, Mrs. Ruth G. Hosking, of Stanton, also has the Fullerton is crowing over neighboring towns because a ghost has taken up its abode in that city.

Leo Sheridan has resumed his duties as secretary of the water company having recovered from a week's illness of influenza. Leo says he is informed the present flu epidemic is not so bad as that of last year, but he states he wants no more of it. His wife has been ill several days past with the malady, but is improving.

He is the son of Joe Burke of Santa Ana, and is said to be a better ball player than his dad was in his younger days—which is going some. Burke has pitched twenty-five games this season and lost only two of them. After balancing his books Manager Riley of the Anaheim team finds that he's out of pocket $60 of his own money. Considering the brand of ball Riley has been putting up this is an outrage. The two thousand fans who witness the game every Sunday ought to dig up enough dough to pay the expenses of the game.

In addition to being among the first women to be selected to serve as trial jurors in Orange county, Mrs. Ruth G. Hosking, of Stanton, also has the distinction of being the first woman in the county and, so far as known, in California, to be appointed on a board of appraisers in connection with the settling up of an estate. Mrs. Hosking was appointed by Superior Judge West to act with State Tax Appraiser John N. Anderson and Frank D. Turner in appraising the estate of Matthias Lippuner, who died on January 15 last. The board of supervisors has passed an ordinance giving the County Engineer authority to erect barriers on highways where paving work is in progress and providing for a fine not exceeding $500 to be imposed upon any person found guilty of ignoring such barriers or willfully entering upon or driving a vehicle over a highway upon which construction or maintenance work is being done. The ordinance was passed Tuesday and will take effect in thirty days. Mrs. Fritzie Helmann Dunbar of Los Angeles; formerly a well-known young lady of this city, was a guest the past week of Miss Teresa Fay. Dismissal has been entered in an attachment suit, brought by the Golden State Bank against G. W. Pennington, and involving a promissory note for $360, dated at Anaheim on April 22, 1918. The defendant was claimed to have given the bank as security four bonds in the Providential Oil Company, of a market value of $900. The bonds were alleged to have become valueless. The plaintiff sought a judgment of $360, with interest at 15 per cent since January 22, 1919. Hans V. Weisel was attorney for the plaintiff. Fullerton is crowing over neighboring towns because a ghost has taken up its abode in that city. The old city jail is haunted, his ghostship paying nightly visits to the place and making his presence manifest by rappings and sundry other phenomena after the manner of well-behaved spirits, terrorizing the Mexican family now resident in the jail. Deputy Marshal Joe Murillo attempted to capture the intruder Monday night. For two hours he ran circles around the building at top speed in pursuit of the elusive phantom, but failed to get close enough to sprinkle salt on his tail. After exhausting himself Joe called City Marshal Myers to his aid, but the ghost warded off all attempts to corner him. Tuesday night several hundred people gathered about the jail in the hope of seeing, hearing, feeling or smelling the visitor from the nether world, but it appears he had a date somewhere else that night.

Everybody knows the swiftest ball teams that ever pulled off a game in this city are the Fats and the Leans. When these two irresistible forces come together on a diamond there is something doing. There is no loafing in the gardens, and no monotonous hanging up of goose eggs on the score board. Both teams are composed of heavy sluggers and they keep the ball hot—so hot, in fact, that the batter frequently gallops around the ring for four bags before the fielders are able to hold the pill and put him out. A game between these two redoubtable has-beens is being arranged by Manager Riley, and it will probably be played in a couple of weeks, details of which will be published later. In the meantime any fat or lean citizen who knows himself to be a first-class ball player is requested to report to Mr. Riley, receive his credentials and get his appointment to a position on one of the teams. Two young men, who said they lived at Santa Ana, were arrested by Officer Choate early Sunday morning, charged with being intoxicated while driving an automobile. The men said they were on their way home from Los Angeles, but were so helplessly drunk they did not know where they were at.

If Fullerton people want to capitalize that spirit and advertise it as an attraction, they should arrange to have it appear when visitors call. Mrs. Ella A. Whitaker, aged 78, died Monday at her home, 123 W. Avenue 57, Los Angeles. Mrs. Whitaker was the widow of James A. Whitaker, founder of the town of Buena Park in this county. For many years Mrs. Whitaker was a resident of Highland Park, where she was an active member of All Saints church. The funeral is to be held Thursday afternoon. She was an aunt of J. H. Whitaker of this city. For four days last week the big guns of the Pacific fleet rocked the houses and rattled the windows of Anaheim. On Wednesday and Thursday the New Mexico and Idaho engaged in target practice in the channel between Catalina and the mainland, and on Friday and Saturday they gave way to the Texas and Mississippi. All Southern California trembled when those 14-inch guns roared, and we believe our little brown brother in faraway Tokio heard them. "Chuch," Hatfield and Pete Wisser defeated Paul Nicolas and Carl Vanata in an exciting bowling match on Saturday afternoon, the score being 536 to 516. The winners are rated as being the best ten pin artists in this section, but in their recent contest they were hard pressed by their opponents who are also known far and wide as experts. Amanda Taylor, wife of William Taylor, died Wednesday after a long illness. Funeral was held at Backs & Terry's at 2 o'clock Friday, interment in Anaheim cemetery. Besides her husband she leaves two sons and one daughter. The sons are W. E. Brown of Waco, Calif., and C. A. Brown of Central City, Neb., the daughter being Mrs. M. H. Litten of Patterson, Cal. At a depth of 3000 feet the Doheny well on the Yarnell lease near Richfield came in at 9:30 Tuesday night with a rip, a rush and a roar, and blew everything out of the pathway of the stream of oil and gas that is spurting at a tremendous pressure. The gas caught fire from the engine and shot a flame a hundred feet high into the air. Drillers at the well had narrow escapes but nobody was hurt. The blaze was plainly seen in this city and several people went out to the well. It is still burning.
