The bride was formerly one of the popular teachers in the Anaheim schools.

The well started flowing again in a steady stream like water from a hose and it is estimated by oil men familiar with producing wells that the oil is flowing at the rate of 1800 barrels a day. When news spread around that the well had settled down to a steady flow there was great enthusiasm among about twenty Fullerton residents who have interests in the well and they were kept busy receiving the congratulations of their friends. The well is only a short distance in the oil sand and it was the intention of the company to drill deeper, but since the well settled down to steady flowing they will not attempt to disturb the well for the present. The oil sand is said to be the best in the field and it is also said that the oil is of 28 gravity, which, if true, is the highest gravity oil yet found in this remarkable field. Visitors from far and near visited the field to view this newest gusher.

Seven homicides were recorded during the month. FULLERTON GOING AFTER OVER-LOADED TRUCKS Two Drivers Arrested for Carrying Too Much Weight The first arrest in the over-loaded truck campaign to protect the pavement on the Fullerton city streets was made when City Marshal Myers spied a truck that seemed to be overloaded and ordered the driver to drive to the Santa Fe scales, where the truck and load were weighed. According to the scales there was 15,800 pounds on the two rear wheels, the tires of which are six inches. The truck was sent to a garage and sealed up. The truck is the property of C. C. Cartwright of Los Angeles, who is engaged in hauling for the Westinghouse Electrical company, and it was loaded with transformers en route to San Diego. While the truck was left standing for a short time in front of the Christian church one of the rear wheels sank about six inches into the pavement. Mr. Cartwright came down from Los Angeles and put up a bond for the release of the truck and will explain to Judge French. Another truck driver was gathered in by the city marshal and taken before Judge French to explain why he disregarded the vehicle law by overloading the track. The driver gave his name as A. C. Williams and was driving a truck for the General Petroleum Oil company, hauling a load of oil machinery from Torrance to the company property in the Richfield district. According to the city marshal the maximum load which the truck should have carried on the two rear wheels was 16,000 pounds, but it weighed 23,105 pounds. The driver deposited $60 for his appearance in court to answer to the charge, after which he was allowed to continue his journey.

The driver deposited $60 for his appearance in court to answer to the charge after which he was allowed to continue his journey to the oil fields with the machinery as it was practically all in one piece and could not be unloaded in sections. Under the state law a truck is allowed 800 pounds to the tire inch. Under the Fullerton city ordinance they are allowed 700 pounds but this city, as well as other cities of the county, it is understood, have decided to work under the state law in order that there might not be any confusion and the overloaded truck drivers and owners could not claim that the various cities were persecuting them. The campaign for the protection of Orange county highways has been taken up by the various cities of the county and the board of supervisors, complaints having reached the ears of officials recently of destruction of the highways at various points from the overloading of the trucks. The fine, it is understood, is $20 per ton, for every ton above the maximum allowed by law. All officers of the county are active and hope to put an end to the evil. This makes the second arrest in two days of drivers of overloaded trucks. Carl Pressel is beginning work this week on the two-story brick business building which he is erecting on the corner of Center and Clementine streets.
