The offer for the Slav property was made to a daughter living in Los Angeles. It has not been learned whether the offer was authentic or just a bubble. Real facts of the matter are that there is no evidence of oil in any county.

D. Bartlett and L. M. Roach, members of the carnival troupe which played at Anaheim during Armistice week, who were recently charged in a complaint sworn to by Mrs. Barbara McMahon with having taken articles of clothing from her home, where they roomed during the carnival week, were arraigned Saturday in the court of Justice John B.

Ball was set at $200 each, in lieu of which they were remanded to jail. Police at Fullerton are still searching for the mysterious man who Sunday night flourished a knife and robbed a Fullerton high school girl and her male escort on the Fullerton high school campus. The possibility that the holdup man may have been the same who Saturday night stabbed Carrie Ullon, 13, near a cemetery in Los Angeles. The city clerk at Riverside has received a letter, evidently from an insane person, as follows: "God has been teaching me for the past six years to kiss and kill young women. I hear your city has cut out kissing. How about the other—I want to know." Authorities are inclined to link this letter to the man who attacked Carrie Ullon. Attorneys for the American Products Company of Fullerton were arguing Tuesday before Superior Judge J.W.Curtis, sitting in the place of Judge Z. B. West, on appeal from the decision of the justice court in an action brought by Roswell Frantz through the Orange County Auto club against the company for damages growing out of an automobile accident on the Fullerton-Anaheim highway some time ago. Frantz, who was represented by Attorneys Scarborough, Forgy and Reinhaus, claimed that an employee of the corporation, Tom Nishikawa, who was driving a truck, had stopped on the main traveled portion of the highway, and that the tall light of the truck was not visible. Frantz, who was driving behind the truck, crashed into it. Frantz was given judgment in the justice court. The American Products company, through Attorneys Jennings and Bilcher of Los Angeles, is presenting an appeal to the Superior Court. The bill at the Grand tonight includes a cowboy play, Buck Jones, in "Firebrand Trevison." It is a western drama which is one long thrill Story by Chas. Alden Seltzer. Don't miss this great romance by a great author superbly enacted on the screen. No western cowboy film seen here in many a day has equalled this Charles Alden Seltzer story in dash and daring interspersed with romance of the plains. In markmanship and horsemanship Buck Jones is a marvel—and it is small wonder that he makes as big a hit with the heroine as with the audience. If you haven't seen him, see him. CAN'T CATCH REAL FLU TWICE If you had the real Spanish Flu back in 1918 and 1919, and didn't die of it you won't have it again. You can start in the winter with a perfectly light heart and no worry whatsoever as to how you would treat yourself in the event of a fresh attack—now that the time honored whisky and quinine cure is no longer integrally available. This is the solemn and scientific assurance of Professor C. Dopter of Paris. He has just published the full statistics end report of the hospital on the Spanish Flu epidemic since its original arrival in 1918 and which demonstrate conclusively that one attack of the disease establishes immunity. In other words the disease itself create within the victim, if he doesn't die, a transformation of the organism which renders it impossible for the ANAHEIM'S Greatest Gift Store IS READY with the Greatest Selection of Gift Merchandise in its history.

The franchise was Transit company some time ago and involved was given same cause to produce the same effects as regards the disease in question. From the standpoint of statistics Professor Dopter points out that the Spanish Flu of 1918 and 1919 came in two waves. It was quickly demonstrated that those which had the disease during the first did not contract it during the second. This has proved equally true in all subsequent epidemics. This also explains the fact noted almost everywhere that aged people in microbe infested surroundings resisted better than young people who had not yet had a chance to become immune. The conclusions drawn from these statistics, and observations have also demonstrated their truth by experiments conducted by Professor Dopter, Volunteer patients who were given an injection of flu microbes came down with the disease in four days. The experiment tried later on the same individuals produced no result whatever, their organisms having become immune. Anaheim Gazette, fifty-two weeks for $1.50. COUNTY TAX DELINQUENT AT 5 O'CLOOK P.
