IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Items of Local Interest Culled from the Files of Former Issues of This Paper From Gazette of Feb. 3, 1872 The monthly meeting of the Anaheim fire company will be held Monday evening. The regular meeting of the city council will be held Monday at 3 p.m. Mr. Peter Griffin, a plasterer, well known as an old resident here, had the misfortune to have his right leg broken near the foot, on Saturday evening last. The limb was promptly attended to and set by Drs. Hardin and D'Assonville and the patient is now doing as well as possible under the circumstances. Mrs. Kate Parker favors us with a circular from the Woman's Suffrage association in which it is announced that a second meeting will be held in San Francisco on Tuesday, the 13th inst. Societies of the association are invited to send delegates or where no societies exist and no delegates are elected "individuals in sympathy with the association are invited to attend as self appointed delegates." The committee of arrangements are Mrs. E. Pitt Stevens, Mrs. E. S. Sleeper, Mrs. E. A. H. DeWolf, Mrs. Mary J. Collins and Mrs. Mary F. Snow. The hall given by Mr. Bremmerman on Saturday evening last, on the occasion of the opening of the Anaheim hotel, was a brilliant affair and a most gratifying success. The attendance was so large that the spacious building was crowded throughout; at least From Gazette of Feb. 4, 1897. Miss Orena Means, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Means, of this city, will be married at the residence of her parents at 12 o'clock today to Dr. Peter Kendricks, of Los Angeles. The mandolin and guitar club, composed of Miss Jessie Melrose and Messrs V. S. Purdy, E. R. Amerige and E. H. Pains will play the wedding march. A reception will follow the wedding from 2:30 until 5 o'clock, and the happy couple will later depart for their future home in Los Angeles. During the thunder storm on Monday morning three of the long distance lightning arresters, as well as that connected with Patter and Pfahler's telephone wire, were burned out at the central office by a bolt of lightning that swept down the main cable from the roof. Mr. Patterson was talking with Los Angeles at the time when suddenly his message was cut into by a loud report and the wire burning out, further operations had to be suspended. Mr. Derge was at the switchboard and was nearly knocked over by the noise of the lightning's flash of flame that shot up from the board whereon the arresters are placed. Telephone communication was interfered with to Los Angeles for a while, but the burned out wires were soon replaced. Bishop Johnson preached an eloquent sermon in the Episcopal church on Sunday afternoon, the church being quite filled by an interested con- The hall given by Mr. Bremmerman on Saturday evening last, on the occasion of the opening of the Anaheim hotel, was a brilliant affair and a most gratifying success. The attendance was so large that the spacious building was crowded throughout; at least 300 persons put in an appearance at the supper table. The supper itself deserves particular notice for the very excellent quality and quantity of choice food provided, both eatable and drinkable, and the quiet, orderly and agreeable manner in which all was conducted. This feature alone was sufficient (if indeed, anything were needed) to fully establish Mr. Bremmerman's reputation as a host. The music was by the Anaheim band and was, as it always is, good. The band was kept at their post from early in the evening until 7 o'clock the next morning, and retired exhausted from the field. The tallest man among them seemed to be little Johnny Luedke, 2nd alto (aet 10) who was propped up about a foot above his comrades, and played his part manfully all night. Los Angeles was well represented, there being present Geo. W. Barter and D. C. Lawrence, of the Star; C. L. Minor, of the News; H. Hammel and lady, of the U. S. hotel, V. Wolfenstein, W. B. Roe, S. Lacey, C. G. Johnston, L. Messmer and lady, Mrs. Schumacher et al. To say who were present from Anaheim would be to give a directory of the city, which we are not prepared to do at present. All were there from the respected presence of our dignified yet genial mayor, down to the smallest boys and girls who are just learning to dance. Altogether it was a very pleasant affair and its success must have been exceedingly gratifying to the popular host and his amiable lady. Hon. Theron Reed in a letter to a gentleman of this city, thus alludes to the division question: "I suppose your senator, Wilson, would hardly consent to a division. Have you given up the idea? Or are you waiting till the members get full of business so that they have no time to fight the matter?" 760 boxes of oranges were shipped in one day from Los Angeles. Bishop Johnson preached an eloquent sermon in the Episcopal church on Sunday afternoon, the church being quite filled by an interested congregation that followed the forceful discourse with attention throughout. Revs. Spicer and Deering conducted the services. The infant child of Mr. and Mrs. Tharpe, of San Francisco, (grandchild of Mr. and Mrs. Hanna, of Miraflores), was baptized into the faith of the church. The singing of the choir composed of Miss Edith Fay, Mrs. Garrison, Miss Helman, Miss Benchley, Mrs. Polhemus and others (with Mrs. Deering presiding at the organ) was a very entertaining feature of the services. The bishop preached from the sixteenth chapter of St. Matthew: "Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow me." The sermon was delivered with all of the bishop's well known forceful address, and was an eloquent elaboration of the theme in hand. The bishop was entertained by Mr. and Mrs. Hoy, of Villa Park, and drove over accompanied by his host and hostess from their beautiful home, arriving at about 4 o'clock. He returned with them to their home after the services. Mrs. S. E. Arthur, of Pasadena, mother of Misses Jettie and Claire Arthus, died of consumption on Sunday in Los Angeles, whither she had been taken for medical treatment. The remains were interred in Los Angeles yesterday. Ahe family have the sympathy of all in their affliction. At the water board meeting held on Saturday, the following directors were elected: W. J. Fay, L. B. Benchley, M. Nebelung, E. Browning, Wm. Crowther, G. B. Key and E. R. Amerige. Ed Hanna, the well known Los Angeles attorney and son of our respected fellow townsman, John Hanna, of Miraflores, was in town on Saturday looking up some legal documents. J. B.

Or are you waiting till the members get full of business so that they have no time to fight the matter?" 760 boxes of oranges were shipped in one day from Los Angeles. Hille and Menzel, saloon and bakery, have bought a corner lot of T. E. Schmidt on the north side of Center street, just east of the beautiful residence of M. P. C. McKinney, and have already commenced the work of building, preparatory to transferring their business to that quarter. The lot, 55 by 150, sold for $325. P. A. Clark, news dealer, has bought a lot on Los Angeles street, lately occupied by the photograph gallery and is building thereon. Matters are lively in the Westminster colony, men plowing, their better halves burning weeds, thirty houses or more built, neat little store of H. Stephens and Co. in operation, roads all plowed up, have to hunt all over the country to find new ones, people planting trees, vines and willow fences and doing everything, in fact, to found securely and permanently a great prosperous and happy community. An Irishman (bad luck to him—we have sent our "devil" to "put a head on him") sends in the following: Why was the Anaheim hotel on the night of the ball, like the Columbia river? Because there was a big bar at the mouth which it was very hard to pass. Ed Hanna, the well known Los Angeles attorney and son of our respected fellow townsman, John Hanna, of Miraflores, was in town on Saturday looking up some legal documents. J. B. Neff departed on Friday for San Francisco to be absent a fortnight. Man Wo, the Chinese manderin, held open house yesterday, the occasion being the opening of the Chinese New Year. Ed C. Byron, of the Santa Ana Blade, and Miss Aline Clardy, an amiable and accomplished lady of the county seat, were married at the residence of the bride's sister, Mrs. C. W. Holmes in that city on Tuesday evening. We extend the felicitations of the season, and trust that life may have a plenty of happiness in store for them. Judge Ballard on Friday in the superior court, appointed Otto Rust as administrator of the estate of Arnold Staub, deceased. The Fullerton band came over on Friday evening and serenaded Fritz Ruhman and bride and Mr. and Mrs. Fosseck. After the serenade there were refreshments and hand shakes. The band goes up to Los Angeles on the 22nd to participate in the Sousa tournament and will play with other local bands under the leadership of the great bandmaster on that occasion.

Officials of the show have redoubled their efforts to push the plans for the show on to grandid success. All available space in the great new fruit tent has been reserved for feature displays and fruit competitive for the quality awards, while more than 75 per cent of the industrial and automobile exhibit space in the two other tents has already been sold to manufacturers and business houses all over the southwest. The latest models in automobiles will be shown in the automobile show that will be the largest held in this part of the state outside the metropolis. An entertainment program de luxe will be presented for the pleasure of the thousands of visitors, while several of the best bands in southern California will appear in programs several times daily.

Paved roads lead direct to the show grounds from all parts of the southland, while Pacific Electric cars pass the show grounds. THE COMMONWEALTH'S AUTHOR AND FRIEND The late Viscount Bryce will hold a place in history with Edmund Burke and William Pitt as an Englishman who did his utmost to bring his country to a higher appreciation of has 1,350,000 horse power, Sweden 1,200,000 horse power, and Switzerland 1,070,000 horse power. The largest percentage of power has been developed in the New England states, where the capacity of the water wheels installed is 1,381,000 horse power and the estimated potential power at low water without storage is 868,000 horse power. In the Pacific coast states—Washington, Oregon and California—the capacity of water wheels installed is 1,893,000 horse power and the potential power at low water with out storage is 1,500,000 horse power. The largest water power development in the world is at Niagara Falls, where the plants in operation have a capacity of 870,000 horse power, of which 385,000 horse power is on the United States side. The capacity of the plants at Niagara is being increased by 114,500 horse power in the United States and 300,000 horse power in Canada. Other large plants are one or 170,000 horse power on the Mississippi at Keokuk, Iowa, from which power is transmitted to St. Louis, and two plants aggregating 288,500 horse power on St. Maurice river in Canada, from which power is transmitted to Montreal, Quebec and other cities. Canada ranks next to the United States in water power development, with 2,418,000 horse power, or over 10 per cent of the world's total. Europe has one-third of the developed water power in the world. Two plants at Rjukan, in Norway, have a total capacity of 239,000 horse power and at Trollhill Falls the Swedish government has installed a plant of 155,000 horse power. At Lake Fully, in Switzerland, the remarkably high head of 5413 feet is utilized. France, Italy, Germany, Norway, Sweden and Switzerland have each developed more than 1,000,000 horse power. In Asia, Japan, with 1,000,000 horse power, and India, with only 150,000 horse power, are the foremost countries in water power development. THE COMMONWEALTH'S AUTHOR AND FRIEND The late Viscount Bryce will hold a place in history with Edmund Burke and William Pitt as an Englishman who did his utmost to bring his country to a higher appreciation of American institutions. Although Mr. Bryce was termed "the most versatile living Englishman," his chief interest seems to have been a study of the United States and the causes of our phenomenal growth and prosperity. As early as 1853 he began an extensive course of reading of America, but it was not until seventeen years later, 1870, that he paid his first visit to this country. He was elected to the house of commons in 1880, and during his 22 years of parliamentary life that followed, Mr. Bryce had frequent occasion to promote friendly feeling between the United States and Great Britain. In 1907 he was appointed ambassador to the United States, and for five years he was highly successful in promoting cordial relations between this country, Great Britain and Canada. Viscount Bryce was the author of various books of history and of comments upon the customs of countries which he had visited. His best known wor is "The American Commonwealth," published in 1888, which is considered an authority on our constitution and political institutions. It is accepted as a standard textbook in American school of higher learning, although it never occurred to Mr. Bryce that it would be widely read on this side of the Atlantic. It was intended by him as another effort to bring the British public to a more sympathetic view of America. "I wrote it for Europeans," said the author in addressing a recent Pilgrim society dinner, "for those benighted Europeans who did not know what America was and what she would become. And the book really was written by yourselves. It was put together out of many conversations I had not only with statesmen in the halls of congress, but at dinner parties, on the decks of steamships, in smoking cars, with drivers of wagons on western prairies, with warl politicians and city bosses." It is to be hoped that the unique place in American-British relations total capacity of 239,000 horse power, and at Trollhattan Falls the Swedish government has installed a plant of 155,000 horse power. At Lake Fully, in Switzerland, the remarkably high head of 5413 feet is utilized. France, Italy, Germany, Norway, Sweden and Switzerland have each developed more than 1,000,000 horse power. In Asia, Japan, with 1,000,000 horse power, and India, with only 150,000 horse power, are the foremost countries in water power development. New Zealand has developed only 45,000 horse power, but is rapidly increasing this amount. Australia has practically no developed water power. The island of Java has 56,000 horse power developed or to be developed by plants under construction. Africa possesses only 11,000 horse power of developed water power. The total potential water power of the world is estimated at 439 million horsepower at low water, of which 62 million horsepower is in North America and 28 million in the United States. Africa is richest in undeveloped water power, with 190 million horsepower; Asia has 71 million horsepower; South America 54 million horsepower; and Europe 45 million horsepower. HAIL TO IRISH PEACE The acceptance of the Irish treaty is in line with that more sane and reasonable state of national mind manifest among nations. American sympathizers, and that means everybody now more than ever, were little less rejoiced than the people of Ireland over the news of the ratification. Though not unanimous and with signs that discontent of the minority may cause internal trouble for a time, that may be expected to give way in the course of a few months. "Work and not talk," as Mike Collins, one of the upholders of the treaty, remarked, is the thing now required and something definite to work for in the place of an intangible something to fight for may be trusted to prove a great stabilizer. Ireland has not won all she asked for, but the terms of the treaty are generous and the Irish people are to be congratulated upon letting cool judgment sway them to accept an excellent beginning for the same degree of peace and happiness, that belongs to Canada and to Australia under similar conditions. No less to be felicitated is England upon concluding a reasonable peace with this liveliest or her children. DR. H. VAN DE BRVE DR. W. M. COLE DR. M. W. HOLLANDSWORTH DR. C. MAYFIELD DR. B.

It is to be hoped that the unique place in American-British relations occupied by Viscount Bryce may not be long vacant. It is probable that the spirit of the Washington conference has aroused British men of affairs to a proper appreciation of American ideals, so that in the future there will be no lack of champions for America among British statesmen. Influences such as those wielded by Mr. Bryce personally and through his books among the most potent factors for peace, a fact which Mr. Balfour and his associates will undoubtedly recognize when the conference adjourns and they return to their own country. WATER POWER OF THE WORLD Forty per cent of the developed water power of the world is in the United States, where water wheels having a capacity of 9,243,000 horse power have been installed, according to a recent statement of the United States geological survey, department of the interior. The leading states in developed water power are New York, with 1,300,000 horse power, and California, with 1,111,000. These state totals compare favorably with those for some of the most progressive countries in water power development in Europe, where France leads with 1,400,000 horse power, Norway Ireland has not won all she asked for, but the terms of the treaty are generous and the Irish people are to be congratulated upon letting cool judgment sway them to accept an excellent beginning for the same degree of peace and happiness, that belongs to Canada and to Australia under similar conditions.

BEAUTIFY HOMES Make the grounds immediately surrounding the farm home at least as attractive as the average city lot. The owner of the latter may be a laborer, a bank clerk, or of any trade or profession, but the chances are strongly in favor of the farmer and his family knowing more about growing plants than the lot owner and having just as much time to care for them. Have plenty of trees for shade and shelter, as well as for ornament. Plant flowering shrubs about house foundations and around the garden boundaries, especially in the front yard. Put in some herbaceous perennials. Once or more each year broad cast seeds of annuals in all bare spots in the garden, so that a constant change may be had. Native flower seeds of both annuals and perennials may be sown now, in mixed lots, and provide a succession of flowers until rains come again, and some of them will remain with you for all time if you so wish. By planting largely of native California material little care will be exacted and then when farm cares will allow you may give the garden the "once over" and clean it up a bit. From any standpoint such planting pays. CHRISTIAN SCIENCE First Church on Christ, Scientist corner of Philadelphia and Chartres streets. Sunday service at 11 a.m. and at 7:45. in the evening.
