IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Items of Local Interest Culled from the Files of Former Issues of This Paper 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK On Friday the 11th inst., information was brought to the office of Justice Davis in this city, that a white man had died the day previous, at the Indian rancheria on the premises of F. A. Korn, Esq. in the western part of the town, from the effects of a wound received on Monday, the 6th inst., in an affray with the Indian denizens of that camp. A coroner's jury was immediately impanelled and proceeded to the spot, found the body to be that of a young and vagrant German, named Frederick Rapp, who lived in and about Anaheim for several months past, and associated and lived almost exclusively with the Indian population. The body was already frightfully decomposed and showed a frightful gash cut diagonally across the forehead. The blow had evidently been inflicted with a hatchet or a heavy knife, which had crushed entirely through the skull and penetrated the brain. The evidence elicited, both before the coroner's jury and at the preliminary examination, was conflicting. Two Indians named respectively Juan Ignacio and Jesus Venyas, charged each other with the crime and each produced two witnesses to prove his assertion. For the information of our readers we give the boundary lines of Santa Clara County. 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK Marshal Steadman's countenance was wreathed in smiles yesterday as he informed us that he had installed the fire plug attached to the city water mains at the corner of Sycamore and Los Angeles streets. Johnny Kellenberger is said to have struck it rich in the Cripple Creek mines. Some time ago he with others purchased a mine for $3000, which is now producing ore going $90 to $100 a ton, and has risen in value to a quarter of a million dollars which price was in fact recently refused for it. Johnny is well known in Anaheim, and is a son-in-law of Mr. Sellinger, who lives north of town, and his wife is now on a visit to her parents here. Contractor McWilliams has been given permission by the city trustees to use part of Los Angeles Street in the construction of Herr Ruhman's new brick block, work upon which is now actively under way. Mr. McKinley informs us that considerable activity prevails as regards orange shipments and that this week sixteen cars of association fruit will be shipped East from this county. Four cars will be shipped from this town, and seven from the Fullerton and Placentia associations, one car from the latter going to Jacksonville. with a hatchet or a heavy knife, which had crushed entirely through the skull and penetrated the brain. The evidence elicited, both before the coroner's jury and at the preliminary examination, was conflicting. Two Indians named respectively Juan Ignacio and Jesus Venyas, charged each other with the crime and each produced two witnesses to prove his assertion. For the information of our readers we give the boundary lines of Santa Ana township as lately established by the board of supervisors. By reference to them it will be seen that the village of Santa Ana is not within their limits, the same being in San Joaquin township. Notes from the war. The Strasbourg contains an announcement to the effect that Germany will never restore to France the territory covered by the city of Strasbourg. In the United States Senate, January 23, Senator Cassuly presented a petition of citizens of Anaheim and San Bernardino, asking a survey of the harbor at Anaheim and the appropriation of $2500 for its improvement. On Sunday morning last an Indian woman by the name of Ana Maria de Duonte fell dead in front of her home near Los Angeles street. Cause, rupture of the heart. The following was shipped from Anaheim to San Francisco per steamer. California. on Feb. 12; 53 pipes wine, 13 punch wine, 1 pipe brandy, 1 bbl eggs, 60 hides, 200 sacks of corn, 122 sacks rye, 29 sacks mustard seed, 5 sacks flax seed. The Hon Max Strobel, Mayor of Anaheim, was last week admitted to the bar as an attorney and counselor at Law in the Seventeenth Judicial District of the State of California after due examination by a board of lawyers, composed of Glassell, Keven and Ganahl. Mayor Strobel has one way and another acquired considerable knowledge of the principles of law and the California statutes, and being possessed of great natural ability, it may reasonably be expected that he will make his mark in the world. The school report shows the total number of pupils enrolled in the two schools are 100, the daily average attendance being 90. The following Mr. McKinley informs us that considerable activity prevails as regards orange shipments and that this week sixteen cars of association fruit will be shipped East from this county. Four cars will be shipped from this town, and seven from the Fullerton and Placentia associations, one car from the latter going to Jacksonville, Florida. George H. Peck, the El Monte weather prophet prognosticates rain on or about the following dates. Feb. 19 and 26; March 4, 12 and 20. Possibly a southwester beginning the latter part of March and running into April. Also two or three light showers between the 18th of April and the first of May. This will end the season. Will Julian went over to Long Beach on Sunday to spend the day with his folks who reside at that point. While walking along the shore he was regaled with a sight of the mirage, also the most beautiful as well as the most wonderful of Southern California phenomena. Looking down the sands that stretch away toward the Alamitos ranch house, his eye behold a lovely lake in whose limpid waters mermaids bathed in easy indolence and seemed to beckon him on. He stood enraptured at the sight, and pronounces it the most wonderful and beautiful sight he ever saw in California, except when he used to go swimming at "Downey." Capt. Gilbert Laudell was in from Buena Park yesterday to procure a physicians certificate of the illness of Sergeant Joe Hatfield, who has been in bed since last Saturday with a bad attack of pneumonia, and whose presence is desired at Saaramento to participate in the State Militia Shot for the diamond trophy offered by the commonwealth for the best marksman. Hatfield scored 93 out of a possible 100 at last year's target practice, and is the only man in the brigade scoring a percentage high enough to entitle him to shoot for the trophy. Only 18 men in the state have qualified to enter competition for the trophy, Sergeant Hatfield being the only one of the thousand militiamen in Southern California to attain that distinction. His illness is unfortunate, and will prevent his attendance at Sacramento. Capt. Laudell will endeavor to get permission to have him shoot Men is public every public question votes, of persons selves or advance the moment—wane rather than men are unsafe. The country has their hands about a generation. Try, who are most demagoguing to judge people loudness or lurious, but by the sense displayed public measures.

The school report shows the total number of pupils enrolled in the two schools are 100, the daily average attendance being 90. The following pupils were named in the roll of honor: Herman C. Zeyn, Albert Rimpau, Chas. Leudke, Frederick Rimpau, Minnie Callisher, Addison P. Dyer, Otto Rust, Ettie Bremerman, Eddie Rimpau, Frank Rimpau, Eddle T Schmidt, William Champlin, John Hartung, Oscar Zeyn, Henry Kuchel, Emma Stone, Nellie Kuchel, Felicidad Carrillo, Ann Fischer, Edelfrida Carrillo and Nick Bittner. A large quantity of wedding cake has reached the Gazette office from the village of Santa Ana. We presume somebody has been committing matrimony in that vicinity. Lumber has been reduced to $28 per thousand feet by the old established firm of Langenberger, Blockman & Co. We are indebted to Mr. Mendelson, who has just arrived from Lorver, California, for some rich specimens of gold quartz, brought him from that region which we opine, are the richest that has ever been brought into this country, exceeding in richness the famous Vulture mine in Arizona. These specimens are from Angel Cana mine, situated in San Raphel Valley about one hundred miles from San Diego. We prophesy a brilliant future for the mining interests of Lower California. When the ladies of Anaheim and vicinity start out to entertain their gentlemen friends there is no half way about it and the gentlemen who did not participate in the fun are to be pitied indeed. The ladies have the reputation of having given some of our most enjoyable parties—they hold the record, as it were, for society functions in that line. But the Leap Year Ball at the Del Campo, St. Valentine's evening eclipsed all former efforts, and for the dazzling array of beauty and the exquisite toillettes on display is has never been excelled in the social history of the community. Some fifty couples participated, and the ladies paid for everything—music, carriages and the other details that conspired to make up the happy event; and at midnight they spread the daintest of suppers—God bless them all. Mrs. Koenig made a large St. Valentines cake which decorated the supper table as a center piece, and she was the recipient of universal praise for her artistic ability as well as her efforts to assist in the preparation of the table. The dancers began to arrive at 8 and by 9 a most enjoyable gathering of our society folks had assembled, ready to trip the light fan, tastic toe to the tune of the best Los Angeles orchestra the ladies could provide. WE ALL GO UP AND DOWN TOGETHER William McKinley used to say, "In this republic we all go up or down together." This great truth needs to be kept in mind in this era of unrest, of uncertainty and of peril, when the temptation is strong in public life to play the demagogue rather than be wise and honest and just. No remedy for existing wrongs and abuses in government is to be found in legislation expressive of the selfish desires or prejudices of any one class or group or element in American citizenship; however powerful it may be either in money or in voting strength. We have had eight years of government belonging to demagogues and doctrinaires, by politicians who professed to be lying awake at nights worrying over the wrongs perpetrated upon the people by plutocrats and big business. As a result we have an accentuation of these very wrongs and abuses which make the days before the new freedom was turned on seem, in retrospection, like the veritable golden age. The politician who preaches a gospel of envy, of hatred and prejudice, whether it be in Russia or America, is an unsafe leader. If such men were to be trusted we would today be living in the midst of millennium, for we were told that through the adoption of the patent panaceas of these politicians, with all their professed hatred of the rich, the poor would be enriched and the plutocrat would be brought low. The politician capable of playing up on the prejudices of the people and of proposing measures in their alleged interest conceived in any spirit but that of justice to all is equally capable of fall two years and four years hence not on the basis of its professions of either fealty or hostility to any given element or class in American citizenship, but upon the influence of its policies, in practical operation upon the general well being of the American people. If a policy injures the general welfare, the claim that it was adopted in the public interest will not blind the people to the actual consequences of any act of folly. Statesmanship is to be judged, not by what it professes, but by what it really achieves. Declamation is not a sufficient substitute for performance, meaningless unless accompanied by practical measures which actually alleviate, rather than complicate and increase, the wrongs and lift the burdens of the people. As William McKinley said: "In this republic we all go up or down together." If the cost of public administration is too great, all the people bear the burden. If taxation is too heavy, all the people carry the load. If unjust laws are enacted or untail administrative measures adopted, all the people will feel the weight of this oppression. If an administration were to be judged by its professions and its prospectuses, then President Wilson should go out of power the most beloved of Presidents. Eight years ago he promised to bring about the adoption of measures which would strike the shackles of the old slavery from the limbs of the American people and usher in the new freedom. People do not judge Woodrow Wilson now by what he promised or by what he intended, but by the practical common sense or lack of it, which characterizes his attempts to deliver what he had eloquently pledged, and by the actual consequences of the measures put into effect two years and four years hence not on the basis of its professions of either fealty or hostility to any given element or class in American citizenship, but upon the influence of its policies, in practical operation upon the general well being of the American people. If a policy injures the general welfare, the claim that it was adopted in the public interest will not blind the people to the actual consequences of any act of folly. Interesting growth of motor stages Tremendous development of the motor stage business in California has been so swift and sure during the last two years that in Los Angeles has grown one of the greatest motor stage systems in the world. Radiating from Los Angeles, which is the natural center of Southern California, the motor stage of the Motor Transit Company extend their lines to San Diego, Santa Ana, San Bernardino, Riverside, Redlands and into the mountains to Big Bear Lake. Also as far north as Bakersfield, where these lines make direct connections with motor stages for all northern points, including Fresno, Modesto, Oakland, and if you desire, connection can be made to Portland, Oregon and to Canada. The extent of the travel over these lines is only realized when it is known as high as 500 cars are dispatched from the Union Stage depot at Fifth and Los Angeles street every day, and that these stages carry annually 3,000,000 people. Motor transportation is developing and enjoining the back country by keeping the arteries between producer and consumer in close, quick contact. This has given parts of California that have hitherto foreseen been neglected by transportation companies a chance to produce and sell their goods. Three important factors have been responsible for the remarkable growth of motor transportation. The first was the completion of California's wonderful highway system, which furnishes a complete network of roads far into the mountains and down to the sea. The second factor entering into the motor transportation was the development of vehicles by motor truck. What concerns this week is fruit will county, from this Fullerton one car Jacksonville, Monte states rain issues, Faby, Poss the latter into April,owers be the first season. Men in public place who think of every public question only in terms of votes, of personal popularity for them, selves or advantage for their party at the moment—who sail by a weather-vane rather than a compass—such men are unsafe leaders in a republic. The country has already suffered at their hands about all it can stand in a generation. The people of this country, who are more intelligent than most demagogues suppose, are beginning to judge public men, not by the loudness or luridness of their professions, but by the practical common sense displayed in the formulation of public measures. Common honesty and common sense; this is the need of the hour. Only by these simple, old-fashioned qualities, dominant in every statesman who is gratefully remembered by the American people, can the nation be led out of the morass into which it has been plunged through the false leadership of demagogues and doctrinales, who have failed almost to the undoing of the republic through the absence of honest motive in public service. These false, selfish, ambitious leaders have been thinking all the time how they could best procure the momentary applause of the multitude, rather than of how they might square their words and deeds with fundamentals of sound sense and fair play. No more, no less, than justice should be accorded to every element in American life; to the most powerful corporation and to the humblest citizen; to the element or interest of the smallest and that of greatest voting power. The politician who would play the one against the other for his own advantage; who would betray the one in the interest of the other; who in his public service, thinks more of locality, or section, or class than of the general well being, is a public enemy in this period of necessary national reconstruction and rehabilitation. Presidents. Eight years ago he promised to bring about the adoption of measures which would strike the shackles of the old slavery from the dumbs of the American people and usher in the new freedom. People do not judge Woodrow Wilson now by what he promised or by what he intended, but by the practical common sense or lack of it, which characterizes his attempts to deliver what he had eloquently pledged, and by the actual consequences of the measures put into effect by the Wilson administration, which now constitute a part of the experience of every American citizen. The Republican party, in the capitol and the White House, is on trial. It will succeed or fail just in proportion as the men entrusted with national authority by the people keep hold of common honesty and common sense, and refuse to play politics as if it were purely a gambler's game. Now as never before, it is the duty of men in public life to forget their own fortunes, their own ambitions, and think only of the giant task of saving this country from the shipwreck with which eight years of rule by demagogues and doctrinales, now threaten it. If the Republican party travels the same road it will wind up in the same manner, and the failure of the Republican party will be, in effect, the failure of the whole country. "We, in this republic, all go up or down together." No object is worthy of the thought of statesmanship but the general, the common good. He who thinks of a smaller objective than that is unworthy of public leadership in an hour like this. APPETIZING SAUCE CAN BE MADE FOR RECOOKED MUTTON In using up left-ovars successfully one must plan for the materials which happen to be on hand. In many instances using up mutton, for example, means simply the reheating pieces of cold meat in a gravy, and what one needs to remember is general principles in gravy making. The proportions for a sauce of suitable thickness are two level tablespoons of fat and two level tablespoons of flour to each cup of drippings or savory fat, and the liquid may be a water, stock, milk, tomato juice, or a combination of two or more of these. Browning the flour in the fat is an easy way of obtaining variety. If this is have hithertofore been neglected by transportation companies a chance to produce and sell their goods. Three important factors have been responsible for the remarkable growth of motor transportation. The first was the completion of California's wonderful highway system, which furnishes a complete network of roads far into the mountains and down to the sea. The second factor entering into the motor transportation was the development of vehicles by motor truck companies that are capable of carrying passengers and freight efficiently at low cost. This necessitates having units that were able to keep on the job day after day which enabled transportation companies to give consistent and constant service. The third and one of the most important factors that have entered into the development of this new motor transportation is the fact that large companies have taken over the "wildcat" propositions that were first started. The fact that these larger companies were properly financed, enabled them to maintain proper equipment and adequate service for their passengers. One of the most useful fields of passenger motor stages is shown in the commercial field whereby companies save millions of dollars every year due to the fact that salesmen are not compelled to lay over at every small town because motor transportation provides frequent schedules that enable salesmen to cover, in some instances, four times as much territory as a few years ago. Motor travel has given greater impetus to "See America First" slogan, because motor stage travel over the most scenic routes gives passengers ample opportunity of viewing the wonders of the country. SUBSTANCE EXISTING IN SOIL One of the most important discoveries in the science of soils has been made by experts of the United States Department of Agriculture within the last year in the separation of a hitherto unknown substance which has been designated as ultraclay, gelatinlike when wet and having in the dry state the general appearance of resin. It appears to be a silicate of alumina, usually with some iron and traces of potassium, sodium, magnesium, and calcium, whether combined or merely absorbed being a point not yet determined. This ultraclay is believed to be the principal factor in making the soil THE TRAHERN Stock Company AT THE GRAND ANAHEIM EVERY Tuesday and Wednesday Night at 8:15 ALL WINTER POPULAR ACTORS POPULAR PLAYS POPULAR PRICES (NOT MOVING PICTURES) means simply the reheating pieces of cold meat in a gravy, and what one needs to remember is general principles in gravy making. The proportions for a sauce of suitable thickness are two level tablespoons of fat and two level tablespoons of flour to each cup of drippings or savory fat, and the liquid may be a water, stock, milk, tomato juice, or a combination of two or more of these. Browning the flour in the fat is an easy way of obtaining variety. If this is done, the thickening quality of the flour is reduced and the amount used should be three, instead of two, tablespoons to one cup of liquid. The following recipe, which can be varied greatly by using different fats, liquids and seasonings, makes a good sauce in which to reheat mutton, and is one recommended by food specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. There are also many possibilities in the way of flavoring by sweet herbs, peppers, pickles, capers, current jelly, etc. Sauce for Warmed-Over Mutton ... 1 1.2 cups of white stock 1 slice of onion. 1 slice carrot. 1 sprig parsley. 2 peppercorns 1-4 cup butter 1-4 cup of flour 1 cup scalded milk.

Department of Agriculture within the last year in the separation of a hitherto unknown substance which has been designated as ultraclay, gelatinlike when wet and having in the dry state the general appearance of resin. It appears to be a silicate of alumina, usually with some iron and traces of potassium, sodium, magnesium, and calcium, whether combined or merely absorbed being a point not yet determined. This ultraclay is believed to be the principal factor in making the soil plastic, but when added to loose and coherent sand in proportions up to 10 per cent, and the mixture made into briguets and dried, it gives to the sand a crushing strength greater than an equal amount of Portland cement. The briguettes made with ultraclay, however when put in water, fall to pieces, while those made with Portland cement retain their form. The discovery has an important bearing upon the physical properties of soils and is being studied in cooperation with the Bureau of Public Roads as a guide in adjusting the structure of concrete and other pavements to the texture of the soil on which they are built.
