IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Items of Local Interest Gulled from the Files of Former Issues of This Paper 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK On Thursday and Friday the pupils of the Anaheim public schools were publicly examined in both grammar and primary departments. The exercises were principally in mental arithmetic, geography and grammar. On Friday afternoon many visitors were present, among whom we noticed Mr. Rimpau, Mr. Webber, Mr. Hill, Mr. Higgins, Mr. Schmidt, Mr. McFadden, Mr. Andrew Guinn, Mr. John Guinn, Mr. Luedke, Mrs. Schmidt, Mrs. Callisher, Mrs. Reiser, Mrs. Blanco, Mrs. Hartman, Mrs. Kuchel, Mrs. Rimpau, Miss Bolt, Miss Kuchel, Miss Swift, and Miss Anna Casad and sisters, of Santa Ana. At the close Mr. Guinn returned thanks to visitors, and advised the pupils that they would meet at 3 p.m. on Monday next, and at the same hour each day thereafter for rehearsal for the first public school exhibition ever given in Anaheim, which will take place in the new hall on Friday evening next. The grand annual May picnic of our citizens took place at Santiago canyon on Sunday last under the auspices of the Anaheim Liederkranz. The various parties, accompanied by the brass band, left the city at 8 o'clock a.m., and arrived upon the ground at 10 a.m. After arriving a space was cleared of leaves and brush, and dancing was commenced amid the greatest enjoyment. The marriage of W. A. Connolly, the well-known young blacksmith, to Miss Adela Spoerl, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C.R. Spoerl, of this city, was solemnized at the home of the bride's parents on Broadway on Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Rev. Ward, of the Methodist church, officiated, and the ceremony was attended by only a limited number of friends of the high contracting parties. Ed Boege was best man, and Miss Beatrice Smythe bridesmaid. Indemnity as the Gazette is threatened with a libel suit, we suggest to delinquents the propriety of coming forward one and all, and pungling up their subscriptions. We should hate to be compelled to keep the Baron Carl Ruhlph Albert von Steinmetz waiting for that $100,000 if he gets it. Later—The libel suit is off. The Baron is in jail. But delinquent subscribers may come in and pungle up anyhow. Dr. Gustav C. Zeyn, son of J. P. Zown, of this city, died at his home in Alameda at 7 o'clock on Saturday morning. For ten days he had been confined to his bed with an acute attack of erysipelas. On the preceding Monday he became seriously ill.

The various parties, accompanied by the brass band, left the city at 8 o'clock a.m., and arrived upon the ground at 10 a.m. After arriving a space was cleared of leaves and brush, and dancing was commenced amid the greatest enjoyment. At 12 o'clock lunch time was called. After this parties scattered off through the natural avenues, lined with huge live oaks, while others took a siesta under the branches of the umbrageous sycamores. At 2 p.m. dancing commenced, and continued until 5 o'clock, when all made preparations and the start was made for home. When the various teams arrived at the city limits, a halt was made, and all formed in regular line of march, headed by the wagon containing the band. About 150 persons, embracing the best citizens of Anaheim, were at the picnic. One day last week as Mr. Alexander Henry was driving a load of hay into town, his wagon ran over an obstruction, throwing him to the ground. As he fell one of the mules which he was driving, kicked him severely, spraining his ankle. We are glad to learn that he is now rapidly recovering. At the meeting of the new city council on Monday last, Mr. John P. Zeyn was elected president, and F. W. Kuelp, clerk, for the ensuing term. The laborers employed by the Anaheim Lighter company lately became dissatisfied and struck for privileges. Mr. R. M. Wells, the agent, promptly paid off the last of them, and by a rapid flank movement had a full force of new hands for duty the next day. One of the privileges demanded, was that of getting drunk while at work, and Mr. White don't sabe that. Mr. Ed Pohlemus is passing a few days in town. He intends returning to his ranch in Lower California on Monday or Tuesday next. He reports that Mr. C. B. Rawson, Mr. F. W. Athearn, Mr. Patterson and J. E. Bacon are on the road driving their herds of sheep to Lower California. The sheep of Mr. Rimpau are about to be moved to the same destination. Dr. Gustav C. Zeyn, son of J. P. Zeyn, of this city, died at his home in Alameda at 7 o'clock on Saturday morning. For ten days he had been confined to his bed with an acute attack of erysipelas. On the preceding Monday he became seriously ill. His life was despaired of, but as he improved somewhat and had the best medical skill and the assistance of extra nurses it was hoped he would ultimately recover. Dr. Zeyn was born in Anaheim thirty-three years ago. The preliminary meeting for the organization of a chapter of the Eastern Star was held at Masonic hall on Thursday evening last, when an organization was effected, and the following officers of the chapter elected: Miss Clara Baker, worthy matron; W. M. McFadden, worthy patron; Mrs. McFadden, associate matron; Joseph Helmsen, secretary; E. Barr, treasurer; Miss Fannie Higgins, conductress; Miss Alma Owen, associate conductress; Mrs. Brown, Ada; Miss Ella Gardiner, Ruth; Mrs. Bourland, Esther; Mrs. Champion, Martha; Mrs. Wood, Electa; Mrs. Perdomo, warden; W. T. Brown, sentinel. Chauncey Huggans has taken charge of Frantz's barber shop and pool room, and will conduct the same during the absence of the proprietor, who leaves today at noon for Coronado with his pair of ostriches, which he will put upon the road for exhibition purposes. Adam Foster will have charge of the barber shop and Chauncey will attend to the wants of the other customers of the establishment. Frantz will ship the birds down overland. Teamster Marsh having been engaged to take them down in a wagon. Three days will be consumed in the trip, and the exhibition will probably open during the early part of next week. Otto Hussman and Frank Eastman go along. After showing at Coronado the aggregation will return to Los Angeles and thence work along the coast to San Francisco, where the professor expects to do a big business. Thence the route will be to fame and fortune through the eastern states. The professor drives the only pair of ostriches ever driven to harness, and thinks of taking a colored band of expert musicians along with him.

Bacon are on the road driving their herds of sheep to Lower California. The sheep of Mr. Rimpau are about to be moved to the same destination. Mr. George R. Butler has just started a large band of his horses through to the eastern states for sale. Mr. E. N. McDonald, Mr. Cusenbery and Mr. Randall, of Wilmington, have already forwarded several thousand head. A thousand head were lately started toward Missouri from off the Laguna rancho. The people of Los Nietos and throughout that vicinity are becoming well fixed. Most of them have paid for their lands, and in a short time a large number of new buildings and fences will be built. The whole valley seems to be owned in small tracts and the soil being the very best, and the cultivation most practical and thorough, it may be regarded as one of the most prosperous regions of our flourishing county. Quite a trade is springing up in Gallatin, and if the people there will but lay off the town with regularity, and manifest an enterprise commensurate with the prospects, a town of no small protensions will soon spring into existence. Mr. P. A. Clark, formerly of Alpine county, has leased the first floor of the Gazette building, and will, on or about the first of June, establish a business therein, the main feature of which will be-books, stationery and periodicals. The Baron Carl Rudolf Albert von Steinfmetz, of Carlsruhe, alias one Arnold, of the Los Angeles city jail, has gone off to lay an egg. The bumptious Baron is now in jail in Los Angeles, and has been exposed as an unprincipled scoundrel, adventurer and knave. The Baron exploded in our editorial sanctum early last Saturday morning. He called to demand a retraction of an article appearing last week, in which the experiences of one Baron von Dinkelspell were detailed at length by one of our reporters. Stories of the Baron's bloodthirsty propensities had been wafted into the editorial sanctum ahead of him. The Baron in thunderous tones observed that he had been grossly insulted—most unjustly insulted—and the article reflected upon him in a manner that called for prompt and adequate reparation. Now he is arrested and in jail. The unprincipled lying scoundrel is scarcely deserving of this notice, but we merely refer to him again to set at rest certain matters which have been rumored about town for a few days past. The case of the Tustin fruit growers against Capt. Earl, to recover the price of thirteen carloads of oranges, valued at upwards of $50,000, together with additional damages for failure to move their last year's crop according to contract, is now on trial before the Superior Court. WASHINGTON JOTTINGS A list of officers' reserve corps camps has been published by the war department, and the announcement made that they will open on June 16. Probably no other activity contributes more to effective preparedness than the officers' training camps, the first of which was established at Plattsburg by Gen. Wood long before the war. It is the policy of the present administration to encourage them in every practical way. It is reported that a thorough investigation of the Mexican oil situation is to be undertaken. Secretary of the Interior Fall charges that British oil interests are receiving preferential treatment from the Obregon government; a statement that is denied by the British embassy. It is anticipated that a solution of all the relations of the United States with Mexico will be precipitated in the near future, and property rights of Americans in that country placed on an equitable basis. Chairman Henry Cabot Lodge, of the senate foreign relations committee, has favorably reported a resolution authorizing the appointment of a commission to represent the United States in the celebration of the first centennial of the independence of Peru. The legislation is in line with the determination of the Republican administration to foster in every proper way friendly relations between the United States and the Latin American republics. The house sub-committee that has been considering the army appropriation bill has decided upon an army of 166,000 instead of 156,000 as agreed upon by the last congress. The total opinion in will have no difficulty in getting the picture before the eastern people through the established movie houses. "I am convinced that all of the big play houses will jump at the opportunity to run the film," declared Wells today. "Easterners are keen for pictures and information on California and the play house managers are just as keen for crowded theater." This reason I feel certain that I would have no difficulty in presenting the pictures at the better class of the theatre. "The fact that I am willing to take such a picture through the east and run the risk of making my expenses is evidence of my faith in the movement and if I can interest the supervisors in producing the film that I want Orange county will get advertising that will be worth thousands of dollars." GOATS ARE IMMUNE FROM TUBERCULOSIS Dr. F. M. Hayes, head veterinarian at the university farm at Davis, furnishes the report of goats slaughtered in the United States during the years 1918 and 1919, by the department at Washington, which gives one tubercular goat in 1918 in 150,000 and one in 125,000 in 1919. The French government through its medical societies, has devoted much study to the milk goat not only in France, but the scientific research extended to goats in all parts of the world and in 1918 the decision was reached that the goat through its peculiar resistance was absolutely immune from tuberculosis. Holmes Pegler, the greatest living English authority on milk goats, says that all eminent European authorities have come to this same conclusion that place of the cow, but its milk will more and more take its place as the most perfect food for the growing child, and a boon for the delicate stomach. TUBERCULOSIS GREAT PROBLEM The question of tuberculosis in dairy cattle is a thing of vital interest to every cow owner and every person using milk as a food product. Dr. J. P. Iverson, state veterinarian, while in the county last week met with a group of local dairymen and gave a very thorough and complete discussion of the status of the disease in the state and best methods of control. In the state of California as a result of the operation of the pure milk law, purely a public health measure, tuberculin testing has been conducted on a larger scale than any other state in the union. The intradermic test has been accepted by state authorities and given official recognition. The state law now reads that it is unlawful to offer milk for sale unless it is from a tuberculin free herd or has been pasteurized; the tuberculin test to be made at least every six months. Dr. Iverson stated that children under ten years of age were more susceptible to tuberculosis than adults and for this reason alone to protect babies and children the law should be enforced. There are approximately ninety dairies in Orange county producing milk for human consumption. Seventy-five per cent of the milk produced here is pasteurized, but at least half of the milk used raw is from cows that have not been tuberculin tested for in some cases over a year. The people who own one cow and furnish their neighbors with "Bossie's" rich milk afford a big chance of spreading the disease because very few of these family cows The legislation is in line with the determination of the Republican administration to foster in every proper way friendly relations between the United States and the Latin American republics. The house sub-committee that has been considering the army appropriation bill has decided upon an army of 160,000 instead of 156,000 as agreed upon by the last congress. The total amount carried by the measure is $230,000,000, which is $15,000,000 less than the total of the bill that the former president subjected to a pocket veto. It is understood that the present strength of the army is 255,000. Secretary Weeks is said to have urged a provision for 183,000, and the number determined upon by the house committee is in the nature of a compromise with him. Of course, amendments in the senate may add to that figure. A BOOSTER SCHEME Boosting Orange county through films to be shown in moving picture houses throughout the east is a publicity plan W. J. Wells, real estate dealer, is developing. His proposed tour of the east was endorsed today by the directors of the Merchants' and Manufacturers' association. Wells will interest the board of supervisors in the movement, with the expectation of the board or group of boost organizations providing the films. He hopes to secure a film of 6000 feet, sufficient for a full program at any theatre, covering every feature of Orange county activity. He is of the opinion that such a picture would attract thousands of persons who are interested in California. He proposes taking the picture through the eastern sections at his own expense, or rather he will take chances on making his expenses. In 1919, The French government through its medical societies, has devoted much study to the milk goat not only in France, but the scientific research extended to goats in all parts of the world and in 1918 the decision was reached that the goat through its peculiar resistance was absolutely immune from tuberculosis. Holmes Pegler, the greatest living English authority on milk goats, says that all eminent European authorities have come to this same conclusion that goats are practically immune from tuberculosis. "We will not experience a sense of relief on hearing that goats' milk is practically free from danger." Because the industry is new in this country, because many of the breeders and owners of milk goats have become interested in them through ill health they have studied the subject of milk goats and their problems very carefully. And it is the testimony of all the breeders that they have never had a case of tuberculosis. Even in confinement as some of the large herds are kept in Switzerland it seems to be part of the goat's physiological make up which keeps it free from this dread disease. It is a known fact the country with most milk goats has the lowest death rate, especially in children and a less percentage of tuberculosis. Is it not the milk goats of Switzerland rather than the laws of men which are responsible for the low death rate from the white plague in that country. In the Balkan states there is little or no health regulations, yet we find the next lowest percentage of T. B. and a generous use of goats' milk and goat cheese. Milk is our first and our most perfect food, the milk of the goat is not only free from the danger of tuberculosis, but it is more like mother's milk than any other milk obtainable in commercial quantities and it is digested in half the time in which cows' milk digests, and quite contrary to the popular belief has a very pleasing taste. The goat will probably never take the law should be enforced. There are approximately ninety dairies in Orange county producing milk for human consumption. Seventy-five per cent of the milk produced here is pasteurized, but at least half of the milk used raw is from cows that have not been tuberculin tested for in some cases over a year. The people who own one cow and furnish their neighbors with "Bossie's" rich milk afford a big chance of spreading the disease because very few of these family cows are ever tested. A move is on foot now backed by every progressive dairyman of this county to make Orange county as near tuberculosis free as possible. The state tuberculosis tester will be in this county soon so anybody wishing to have their cows tested should send their application to the local Farm Bureau office, Santa Ana. THE EDISON COMPANY DECLARES DIVIDEND The directors of the Southern California Edison company have declared the regular quarterly dividend on the common stock of the company, according to advices received by District Manager W. L. Deimling. The checks will be sent out to the local stockholders who reside in Orange county on the 15th of this month. This is the 45th regular consecutive dividend on this stock. In line with other large utilities of the country, Edison company has recently increased the dividend rate from 7 to 8 percent. On the theory that the people residing in the territory served are entitled to be partners with the company in this project, the company has recently been selling large amounts of stock and now numbers over eleven thousand (11,000) stockholders, by far the largest part of whom are residents of southern California and the San Joaquin valley.
