IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO
Items of Local Interest Culled from the Files of Former Issues of This Paper
From Gazette of April 13, 1872.

A. Bittner has been appointed by the probate court guardian of John Thompson, incompetent. An item which we published two weeks ago upon the authority of the News to the effect that Mr. Thompson had been sent to Stockton, proves to have been incorrect as he is still here.
Joaquin Miller, the celebrated poet, is expected to be in Los Angeles within a few days, and we hope he may be induced to visit Anaheim. A very good pen picture of him was published last week in our San Francisco correspondence, which we reproduce for the benefit of those who missed the item. "Joaquin Miller, the poet of the Sierras, is in town and attracts much attention as he limps down Montgomery street. He is a strange looking man and would be an object of curiosity any where. He is a little above medium height, is slightly lame, and carries his right hand in his pocket, his right arm having received a wound in some of his Indian fights."
From Gazette of April 15, 1897.
The beautiful two-story brick residence belonging to the estate of the late Theodore Reiser has been sold to Mr. Kossert, uncle of Mr. Turcke, who has lived for nearly a year past on his ranch in West Anaheim. The residence is one of the first erected in Anaheim and was regarded in early days as one of the handsomest and most beautifully furnished in southern California. Since the decease of Mr. and Mrs. Reiser, the premises have been under the supervision of Mr. Thiele, who has kept the beautiful grounds and orchard in first class shape. The price is said to be $5300, and the sale includes a ten-acre orange grove.
Mrs. Shanley entertained the Ladies' Euchre club at her residence on last Thursday afternoon, when a delightful time was participated in by all. Mrs. Arthur Lewis won the first prize, an enameled sugar spoon; Mrs. Shanley, the second, a bamboo table, and Mrs. G. S. Laudell, the booby prize, a silver thimble.

BUY IN
Here is a little going the roundabout of buying away order houses, so you ought to read it, perhaps it won't your memory.
The other day the Amador Lee a hardware store found the kind of the price. It was said.
Good gracious.
"I can buy from Rears-Saw house, for $1.35."

lished last week in our San Francisco correspondence, which we reproduce for the benefit of those who missed the item. "Joaquin Miller, the poet of the Sierras, is in town and attracts much attention as he limps down Montgomery street. He is a strange looking man and would be an object of curiosity any where. He is a little above medium height, is slightly lame, and carries his right hand in his pocket, his right arm having received a wound in some of his Indian fights. He wears his long flaxen hair in flowing ringlets, which fall over his shoulders and give him the traditional appearance of a poet. On first acquaintance he is apt to strike one unpleasantly as his manner is cold and distant and his actions peculiar. But to those who know him intimately, he is genial and friendly. He speaks of leaving for Europe again at no distant day, which will leave us without a poet of any note, for our own sweet singer, Charles Warren Stoddard, has flown to the islands of the Pacific for inspiration and will not return for several months."
The stage from Capistrano arrived last Thursday morning at 8 o'clock Charlie rises early and the man that gets ahead of him will have to sit up all night.

Quite a serious misfortune has befallen us this week in the shape of a heavy frost, which appeared Wednesday night the 10th inst. The weather turned so cold that ice is reported to have formed and some of the vineyards were badly nipped, others apparently unharmed. John W. Clark informs us that he has known vines as badly frosted in Napa valley as late as April 20th, when they were as far advanced as they are now here. The new growth was entirely killed down, yet the vines seemed to recover entirely, sent out new buds and produced in the fall almost as good a crop as usual, but about four weeks later. The last serious frost that occurred here was in 1865, and was much more severe than that of this week.

BUY IT AT HOME
Here is a little story that has been going the rounds, and it tells the story of buying away from home, from mall order houses, so well that we think you ought to read it; if you have read it, perhaps it would be well to refresh your memory.
The other day, in Oklahoma, says the Amador Ledger, a man went into a hardware store to buy a saw. He found the kind he wanted and asked the price. It was $1.65, the dealer said.
Good gracious," replied the shop-owner. "I can buy the same saw exactly from Rears-Sawbuck, the catalogue house, for $1.35."
"That's less than I paid for it," replied the dealer, "but I will meet competition, so I will make you that saw for $1.35 also."
"All right," said the customer, "send it to my house and charge it to my account."
"Not on your life," replied the dealer. "No charge account on this. The mail order house does not trust you. I am simply meeting their price and terms. Fork over the cash."
The customer complied.
"Now 2 cents more for postage and 5 cents for the money order," said the dealer.
"What"
"Certainly, you have to send a letter and a money order to a mail order house you know."
The customer, inwardly raving, handed over the money.
"Now 25 cents for expressage," said the dealer, still holding out his hand.
"Well, I'll be d——," said the customer. But he paid it, saying, "Now hand me that saw and I'll take it home myself and be rid of this foorery."
"Hand it to you? Where do you think you are? You're in Oklahoma and I'm in Chicago. You'll have to wait two weeks for that saw."
Whereupon the dealer hung the saw.

WORK ON NATION'S HIGHWAYS
Highway construction will not be delayed by the requirements of the new federal highway act. The federal highway system will consist of roads not exceeding seven per cent of the total in any state, designated by the state and approved by the secretary of agriculture. Work is being rushed by all the highway departments on the preparation of maps of the proposed system, but naturally such an important matter will take some little time and consideration. The government authorities will insist that important through routes meet at state lines which will require conferences between authorities of different states.
In order that work will not be delayed pending the approval of each state system the secretary of agriculture has amended the rules and regulations for federal aid to permit the immediate construction of such roads as it may reasonably be anticipated will become part of the system.
State highway officials are being advised that the anticipated route of which the road to be built is a part should be as long as practicable. A map must be submitted showing the route, other possible routes and connecting routes. If this is found satisfactory the project will be approved for immediate construction.
The state of Washington submitted the first complete state system, and others are expected in a short time.
