MARMALADE GEYSER
BURNS SEVERAL
E. H. Adams and Hugh Crawford Seriously Injured at Sugar Factory
An exploding vacuum pan filled with boiling marmalade at the sugar factory on Monday morning at 11 o'clock sent showers of its heated contents through the two-foot orifice at the top, severely scalding a number of employees who were near at the time of the accident, among them E. H. Adams, head electrician, and Hugh Crawford, who was engaged in cooking the marmalade.
At the time the pan contained 49 boxes of oranges and 140 gallons of water. The pan is surrounded by a steam jacket, and owing to high pressure, its bottom burst inwardly. Escaping steam precipitated the entire contents aloft, and it fell upon the

Only two-thirds of the voters of Anaheim were registered in time to participate in the city election next Monday, but considering the interest being taken by friends of the several candidates for trustee a heavy percentage of this vote will be cast. There are only three vacancies on the board to be filled and eight candidates are before the voters for their consideration. They are all excellent pieces of timber, but five of them will have to be rejected.
Two members of the present board are candidates for re-election. They are William Stark and Charles H. Mann. Mr. Stark is candidate for the four-year term, and others who are seeking one of the two long term seats are V. W. LaMont, Howard E. Gates, John H. Cook and W. B. Allen. Trustee Mann consented at the eleventh hour to stand for re-election for the short term, and he is opposed by Charles Eygabroad and Fred Gresswell, making it a three-cornered fight for one seat.
At the present writing these gentlemen appear to be running neck and neck, and even the wisest grognosticator is puzzled when he attempts to pick the winners. There are 1,488 voters registered and probably 80 per cent of this vote will be cast. It is certain to be pretty evenly divided among the candidates, and no one will have a walk away.
Elections always create more or less interest among the voters, and as there are eight candidates and only three to be elected for trustee, several combinations have been formed, each having its supporters. Some choose Stark, Cook and Mann.
Others name Allen, Eygabroad and Gates.
It is said the ex-service men will get behind Gates, making him an independent candidate.
Another combination is Cook, Gresswell and Gates.
It is said LaMont has a strong force among the Elks who are out to back their man against the field.
Some citizens say they want "new blood" on the board of trustees, something that will boost the town for fair.
Others announce they would like to see a safe and sane administration and look well before leaping.

At the time the pan contained 49 boxes of oranges and 140 gallons of water. The pan is surrounded by a steam jacket, and owing to high pressure, its bottom burst inwardly. Escaping steam precipitated the entire contents aloft, and it fell upon the employes standing near. Adams was engaged in installing a new electric light with his back toward the pan. He was burned about the head, neck, shoulders and back, and his left arm was burned from the elbow to the shoulder. He did not think at first that he was seriously burned and walked to the lavatory to have his injuries attended to. When it was found his skin was peeling from the burned surface he was placed in an automobile and rushed to the sanitarium where Dr. Johnston applied the paraffine treatment. He was later taken home, where he said he would be able to return to walk in a few days.
Crawford was burned about the face, neck and body. He was taken to the sanitarium and a paraffine treatment administered by Dr. Johnston.
The scalding marmalade fell in showers all about the pan, and covered the floor to a depth of several inches. The injured ran to safety while the marmalade continued to fall in showers all about them.

Anaheim is progressing rapidly and much yet remans to be done. Right now there are three or four very important matters up before the people, demanding immediate attention.

Sleeper, who gave out figures showing the development work now being done by the various companies operating in the county.
According to Sleeper, 85 new wells are being drilled at this time, or were being drilled on March 1 when data was gathered in the oil fields. These figures are for wells that are being drilled in what has already found to be oil bearing territory.
Sleeper also said that 17 wildcat wells were being drilled in the county on March 1. The wells are termed "wildcat" by Sleeper because they are being drilled in territory far from proven fields. Should any of these wells come in as products they will open up territory which up to the present time has never been considered as oil bearing.
Sleeper says there were 618 producing wells in the county on March 1. This figure was taken from the assessment roll of last year and is not absolutely correct. Some of the wells that were producing at this time last year may not be producing now, it is said, but on the other hand it is pointed out that other wells have been brought in in recent months.
Sleeper says there is more oil development work being done at this time than ever before in the history of the county. The number of wells being drilled now in proven territory is almost three times the number being drilled at this time last year, it is said, and there were only three wildcat wells being drilled on March 1, 1919.
Thomas Strain of Placentia will leave in a day or two for a visit to his old home in Belfast, Ireland, expecting to be absent during the entire summer. Mr. Strain was in Belfast when the war broke out in 1914.
If the joint sewer should not nullify a half expenditure inland. Not ning the line from An ocean is anticipated, but feel that it would be useful to the line to the beach, delayed for several months, demanding immediate attention.
Report of the financial read and upon motion of warrants ordered drawn by the various demands to be made.

Anaheim, California, Thursday, April 8, 1920
BOND ELECTIONS SOON WILL BE CALLED
VOTERS TO CONSIDER BOTH OUTFALL SEWER AND CITY PARK PROPOSITIONS
Total Issue of $260,000 Required—Joint Sewer Will Start at the Ocean, Building Inland—Condemnation Proceeding Begun to Acquire Property in Library Block
If the present plans of the trustees are carried out Anaheim people will soon vote upon two bond propositions, the total amount asked being approximately $260,000 One proposition calls for $180,000 to build, in co-operation with Fullerton, an outfall sewer to the ocean, the other calls for $80,000 for purpose of acquiring the library block for a city park.
At an adjourned meeting of the trustees held Thursday evening City Man

In whatever section of the city your footsteps chance to wander, you will see new buildings in course of construction, and surprising evidences of growth and improvement, but enterprising people of the westside appear to have a secure tailhold on the business section of the city, and are gradually pulling it in that direction. Many substantial buildings have been erected west of Los Angeles street during the past year or two, but many more are contemplated, preparations for

At an adjourned meeting of the trustees held Thursday evening City Manager Steward submitted his estimates of the sewer cost. According to his figures the sewer from the ocean to a designated point west of the city would cost $486,031.06. Anaheim's share of this would be $243,031.53. The cost to the city of carrying the sewage to this point would be $40,328.85, making the total cost to Anaheim, $283,344.38. As an offset to this the trustees expect to sell the Stanton ranch and the present sewer farm, aggregating 103 acres, for at least $100,000, possibly more, the proceeds of which will be applied on the new sewer.
The trustees do not anticipate smooth sailing in carrying the city's sewage to the ocean, but it seems to be the only feasible plan out of the present dilemma. The people of Stanton blocked the first proposal to build a septic tank on the Gilbert ranch, and the sewer farm now in use is considered a nuisance in the neighborhood. No doubt the people on the beach will rise up in their wrath and protest against any attempt to reach the sea. It is understood the sewer outfall is planned to be located near Huntington Beach, probably to the north of that city, and Anaheim officials would not be surprised if the beach communities launch a fight against the sewer plan. Anticipating such a fight, it was tentatively proposed that the sewer work be started at the ocean and extended inland, so that should the fight develop. It will be settled before the entire line is constructed, and if the joint sewer should be blocked it will not nullify a half-million dollar expenditure inland. No trouble running the line from Anaheim to the ocean is anticipated, but the trustees feel that it would be unwise to build the line to the beach, and then be delayed for several months, or blocked entirely, at that point. They propose to settle their rights at the ocean, and then build the line inland.
It will require somewhere near $80.

50-yard three-legged race—Freshman: Sho bridge-Schacht first; sophomore: Wright-Carmichael second; sub-freshmaam footsteps chance to wander, you will see new buildings in course of construction, and surprising evidences of growth and improvement, but enterprising people of the westside appear to have a secure tailhold on the business section of the city, and are gradually pulling it in that direction. Many substantial buildings have been erected west of Los Angeles street during the past year or two, but many more are contemplated, preparations for building now being in progress for some of them.
The most important item on the building program for this section was written last week by Messrs. Head & Ingram when they announced the purchase of a lot on West Center, between Lemon and Clementine, on which they will immediately begin the erection of a splendid new opera house. The lot is 54x160 feet, and adjoins the Peck store on the west. Architects are now preparing plans for the building which, the owners claim, will be the finest theater building in Orange county. They are building for the future as well as the present because they believe, in common with all progressive citizens, that Anaheim is destined to shortly become the most important city in the county. The new theater will be modern in every respect, and will have a comfortable seating capacity of one thousand. Messra Head & Ingram will probably surrender their lease of the New Grand, but will continue to manage the Fairyland.
Adjoining this building on the corner of Lemon and Center now occupied by the Peck store, the Knights of Pythias will shortly build a beautiful new temple, which will be one of the finest lodge buildings in the Southland.
A block further west, some months ago, Carl Pressel purchased the Benner-Scheldt corner at Clementine and Center. It is covered by one of the oldest wooden buildings in the city. It was stated at the time that Carl intended putting up a business block on the corner, but the announcement was premature. It is now stated, however, that he is preparing to erect a two-story brick business house. His lot is seventy-five feet square, and his purposes to cover the entire ground. This will leave a vacant lot between the Roberts block and the Pressel building, but it belongs to Mr. Roberts, and he will probably build on it, make...
If the joint sewer should be blocked it will not nullify a half-million dollar expenditure inland. No trouble running the line from Anaheim to the ocean is anticipated, but the trustees feel that it would be unwise to build the line to the beach, and then be delayed for several months, or blocked entirely, at that point. They propose to settle their rights at the ocean, and then build the line inland.
It will require somewhere near $80,000 to purchase the property in the library block which it is proposed to transform into a city park. There is a hitch in the proceedings here also, as the board has been unable to secure options on the West and Des Granges corners, and a lot belonging to Mrs. Isabella Hahn. Condemnation proceedings have been started against the owners of these properties, and the matter will be taken into court. The election date will probably be fixed for some time in May.

LOCAL BANK MAKES CHANGES
In order to handle its share of the increasing business of Greater Anaheim, The First National Bank takes first step to divide their institutions into exclusive departments.
J. E. Baker has just been appointed escrow officer, and with his assistant, Miss Atherton, will handle all escrows in the future. Mr. Baker has had four year's experience as county clerk of Dickey county, North Dakota, and several years' escrow experience.
Miss Atherton is experienced in this department, and can also handle escrows.
Mr. Boege, assistant cashier, and formerly escrow officer, has been made a member of the loan committee, and consultant. He will also handle the exchange.
Miss Park will handle all collections, wiring of money and the sale of traveler's checks.
It is the plan of The First National Bank to later have separate tellers to pay and receive. It is the belief of the bank that as soon as the ex-
It was stated at the time that Carl intended putting up a business block on the corner, but the announcement was premature. It is now stated, however, that he is preparing to erect a two-story brick business house. His lot is seventy-five feet square, and he purposes to cover the entire ground. This will leave a vacant lot between the Roberts block and the Pressel building, but it belongs to Mr. Roberts, and he will probably build on it, making a solid brick front from Lemon to Clementine street.
Across Center street is the brick building now occupied by the Pressel blacksmith shop. It is said this building will be extended through to Oak street, the blacksmith shop moved to the Oak street end, and the Center street half remodeled into a business room. It is also reported that the lot adjoining this on the east will soon be covered by a brick building. It belongs to Mr. Miller, the sign painter.
These are some of the improvements mentioned for the westside. There is room for more buildings on all of the four sides of Anaheim, and a move to extend the city limits in all directions will probably be made in the near future.
Dr. W. W. Adams, who has been waiting the arrival of passports to enable him to leave for Gautamala, received his papers last week. Dr. Adams is one of a syndicate which purchased 4000 acres of land in the Central American republic for the purpose of growing bananas or other tropical fruits. He expects to return next year for a visit.
clusive department system is regulated that its customers and the public will be served in a much more efficient and prompt manner.
GRAVEL BEING USED ON SEVERAL ROADS
Supervisor Schumacher Has Four Sections Under Construction
Six and one-fourth miles of gravel road is now beng built in the vicinity of Anaheim under the direction of Supervisor Schumacher. This includes two miles of Placentia avenue, south from the pavement, linking the paved road with the state boulevard at the Theodore Ford place; one and one-fourth miles of the Ball road, from the Garden Grove road to the Stanton city limits; two miles on the Brookhurst road, and one and one-half miles at the Frank Wick place. The gravel on the new roads costs at the rate of $900 per mile.
Mr. Schumacher's indefatagable work on the highways of northern Orange county have gained him a reputation as a road builder. Practically the entire system of paved, oiled and gravelled roads can be credited to him, and he proposes to get our just share out of the fund shortly to be raised in the county for new highways, either by bond sales or direct taxation. Some resident of the west side recently broke into print with a criticism of the newly completed extension of Broadway which appears to have been
DEALERS DEMAND SPACE AT BIG AUTO SHOW
MANAGER BIDDICK EXPECTS TO SELL EVERY FOOT IN THE TENTS THIS WEEK
Committee Spending $2500 on Decorations, and One Thousand Dollars' Worth of Talent Has Been Engaged to Entertain the Visitors — Big Crowd Expected
That the Orange county automobile show to be held in Anaheim May 5 to 8 will exceed all expectations is apparent from the manner in which dealers are demanding space in the two grand tents which will be constructed to house the show. Walter Biddle of Santa Ana, the manager, is making his headquarters in Anaheim at present and reports that last week three-fourths of the space was applied for, and he expects to have the entire
NEW WAGE SCALE FOR OIL WORKERS
Radicalism Frowned Upon by the Orange County Men
A new wage scale is in prospect for the Orange county oil fields, according to information brought back from Bakersfield by W. H. Swoap, local delegate to the convention of the California Oil-field, Gas-well and Refinery Workers. At that time, Swoap reports, a wage scale committee was appointed whose function it is to ascertain all the available facts as to increased cost of living and as to needed adjustments in the relative scale of wages among various kinds of work done and make recommendations for the new scale to be adopted for the year beginning July 1920.
This wage scale committee will represent its findings and its requests before a committee representing the operators and in the presence of the United States government mediators. To the bystanding public this looks like a sane and sensible procedure and should issue in mutual justice and continued goodwill.
Another important matter of possible far-reaching consequence is the suggestion which the convention telegraphed to Washington. It grew out of the statement that oil companies would have to raise the price of oil twenty-five cents on the barrel on account of the scarcity of oil. The oil workers wired the suggestion to Uncle Sam that if Uncle Sam would furnish the tools and supplies, the workers would furnish the men to develop the government oil lands and thus supply all the oil needed by the government at production costs.
Mr. Swoap was asked if radicalism county have gained him a reputation as a road builder. Practically the entire system of paved, oilled and graveled roads can be credited to him, and he proposes to get our just share out of the fund shortly to be raised in the county for new highways, either by bond sales or direct taxation. Some resident of the west side recently broke into print with a criticism of the newly completed extension of Broadway which appears to have been uncalled for as this is said to be the best piece of paved road in the county.
That the Orange county automobile show to be held in Anaheim May 5 to 8 will exceed all expectations is apparent from the manner in which dealers are demanding space in the two grand tents which will be constructed to house the show. Walter Biddle of Santa Ana, the manager, is making his headquarters in Anaheim af present and reports that last week three-fourths of the space was applied for, and he expects to have the entire space sold by the end of this week. It will be the largest and best thing of the kind ever held in Orange county. The two tents will have 33,700 square feet of space, and the decorations alone will cost $2500.
That entertainment features are not being overlooked, and that high class artists are being engaged for the four-day show is evidenced by the fact that the committee already has engaged talent that will cost $1000, with possibility of more being added. The committee is composed of Harry D. Riley of this city, C. H. McCausland of Santa Ana, and Albert Sitton of Fullerton, and these gentlemen propose, at any cost, to make this, the first annual show of the Orange County Automobile association, one of the greatest shows ever held in the Southland.
The Hart property on North Los Angeles street, formerly the Rothaemel place, has been leased for the purpose, and two huge tents will be erected thereon. One of the tents will be devoted to passenger cars exclusively, and probably every make on the market will be shown, giving prospective purchasers an opportunity to look them over and compare them. The other tent will house the trucks, tractors and accessories. Many dealers in Los Angeles and San Bernardino county have applied for space, but the half a hundred dealers in Orange county will be considered first. It is believed thousands of visitors from all sections of the south will visit the show.
tum—so far as his jurisdiction goes.

JUDGE COX ISSUES
ULTIMATUM TO SPEEDERS
Jail Sentence Will Be Handed All Violators, if Necessary
Justice J. B. Cox is on the warpath.
Speeders, look out!
Judge Cox has repeatedly declared in his court that the new motor vehicle law, raising the speed limit, has served to increase the number of speeders, instead of decreasing them.
Accustomed to a leeway of five miles an hour under the old regulation of thirty miles, motorists now are attempting to overlap the present limit of thirty-five miles for day driving with an excess of from six to seven miles, being content now only with forty to forty-two miles, where before they were satisfied with from thirty to thirty-five.
Justice Cox has issued an ultima-tum—so far as his jurisdiction goes.
Monday he placed the speeders of Southern California who travel the Orange county boulevards under probation for two weeks.
At the end of that period, if speeding has not decreased, he is to forget all about fines for speed and make a straight jail sentence—the penalty for all who are caught going faster than the state law permits.
"I am going to put a stop to excessive speeding in Orange county," said Judge Cox, following the imposition of a sentence of ten days in the county jail on Ervin C. Errickson of Los Angeles, riding a Harley-Davidson motorcycle to the National Capistrano Hill Climb. Errickson was caught at 56.25 miles.
"I am going to stop speeding here, even if I have to force the supervisors to build another jail to hold violators," continued the justice. "I will be just as strict in forcing the jail program as I have been in enforcing the fines.
"I have found that fines do no good. What does the average man who is arrested care for $10 or $20? Noing! If the number of peepole caught for speeding is not reduced I am going to adopt the jail program and I will impose the sentence on every one brought before me, even if the rates of speed be only one mile in excess of the speed limit."
Five other motorcycle riders of Southern California, caught Sunday on their way to or from the national hill climb, have coming to them a jolt similar to the one handed Errickson. They are O. Newman, 56.25 miles; H. Rudolph, 56.25 miles; B. A. Dinsmore, 51 miles; and Ted Cooper, 58 miles; all of Los Angles, and Frank Tilley, 56 miles, of Riverside,
