Chadbourne's hall was quite well filled with a fashionable audience on Saturday evening, on the occasion of the concert given by the Ladies' Aid society of the Fullerton M. E. church. Mrs. Katherine Fleming-Hintricks, the noted singer, was the star, and the audience compelled her to sing no less than seven times. But the applause that greeted her singing was irresistible and there was no denying the audience an encore each time she appeared—they would have it, and the singer had to comply, which she did...
Born—At Anaheim, Friday, June 8, 1872, to the wife of Philip Davis; Esq., a son.
Died—June 24th, 1872, at the War Springs, near San Juan Capistrano M. J. Reilly, of Los Angeles, or the firm of Brodrick & Reilly, Los Angeles. Mr. Reilly had been enjoying a few days' recreation at the spring and on Sunday last remarked to M. Egan, that he ought to go home and give his partner, Mr. Brodrick, chance to get away. Mr. Egan at one volunteered to send a buggy to carry him to Capistrano on the following morning, and did so, but before the vehicle reached the spring, Mr. Reilly was dead, having been carried away by a severe attack of bleeding at the lungs.
Masonic Hall Dedication NAmon the many noble institutions of which Anaheim feels proud is her Masoni lodge, known as Anaheim lodge No 207, F. and A. M. It was organized about two years ago and embraces its membership some of the best art most highly esteemed citizens of our community. The dedication of the new hall on Monday last was much like a general holiday. A large delegation of the Los Angeles Mason came down in the morning, among whom were Messrs. F. P. F. Temple Sam Prager, Thos. Rowan, Dr. Orme Rev. Edeman, P. Jackson, H. Fleisi man, H. Tarnmel, H. W. Hellman, J. Q. A. Stanley, M. Morrisi. At 2 p.m. the Masons assembled at the old hall and accompanied by the Odd Fellows lodge and proceeded by the banquet marched down Senter St. to Lemon, thence back up Center to Los Angeles and down Los Angeles to the new hall. The hall was filled, there being a large number of ladies present. The ceremonies opened by an address by the worshipful master of the Anaheim lodge; Thomas Reiser, Esq., to acting G. M., S. Prager. Next followed the address of the grand architect, Wm. H. Wiley. After music by the band, "The Star Spangled Banner," a prayer was delivered by Rev. Edeman, H. S. Orme, junior G. W., presented the vessel of corn to the acting G. M., S. Prager, who thereupon dedicated the hall to Free Masonry. Perhaps the most interesting feature of the day was the presentation by deputy G. M. Casad to Mrs. Margaret S. Metz of a resolution of thanks from the lodge for her generous donation of the lot filled with a fashionable audience on Saturday evening, on the occasion of the concert given by the Ladies' Aid society of the Fullerton M. E. church. Mrs. Katherine Fleming-Hinricks, the noted singer, was the star, and the audience compelled her to sing no less than seven times. But the applause that greeted her singing was irresistible and there was no denying the audience an encore each time she appeared—they would have it, and the singer had to comply, which she did with consummate grace and her usual sweetness of disposition. Though Mrs. Hinrich's numbers included several ambitious selections—ambitious for singers of less ability than she—it is doubtful if among her seven songs any was sweeter or possessed of more melody than "Spring Has Come Again" and "Annie Laure," two encores with which she graciously responded to the applause, which followed each song.
A large and appreciative audience gathered at the opera house on Tuesday evening to attend the recital and concert given by Mrs. A. Werner Ruprecht and her pupils for the benefit of the Ladies' Aid Society of the Presbyterian church. The playing of mandolin and guitar composed of Misses Jessie Melrose, Fannie Higgins, Jolla Smythe and Beatrice Smythe, was a delightful feature of the program. The vocal duet by Misses Edith Fay and Estelle Lewis was sweetly sung, and Miss Katie Brown's piano playing showed that she had made good progress in the art of mastering the pianoforte. The chorus from the cantata, "Springtime," by Misses Lewis, Nicolas Fay, Mrs. Warling and Mrs. Ruprecht was a delightful bit of music. Oscar Werner's violin solo proved him to be a violinist of a high order of merit. Miss Flora Davis was the accompanist of the evening.

CHARLES G. JOHNSON
FOR STATE TREASURER
Political observers, especially those in the northern part of the state, are commencing to sit up and take notice of the campaign activities of Charles G. Johnson, Republican candidate for state treasurer. Although Johnson is making his first start in a political race, the observers agree that he has laid his preliminary campaign plans with all the cleverness and speer of a veteran and has already covered considerably more territory than any of the other contenders in the field.
The political wiseacres point to the fact that during his seven and a half years as state superintendent of weights and measures, Johnson made innumerable friends in every county and corner of the state, these friends now comprising a splendid organization actively campaigning in the interests of the former state official. Johnson, by the way, was appointed head of the state weights and measures department by Hiram Johnson in June, 1897, and so efficiently did he admin-
general affairs and unprogressively wedded to text-book knowledge. This unquestionably is true as to a great many teachers, although there are many exceptions. But it is not teachers alone who hold narrowly and tenaciously to the special knowledge of their calling. Men and women in other professions and vocations do the same. It should be said, however, that the number of persons who remain thus in ignorance of general affairs is smaller than formerly.
The typical American newspaper is widening constantly the bounds of general and broad intelligence. Regular reading of a reliable, trustworthy, unsensational newspaper is coming to be regarded as a necessary daily experience with the average person.
Keeping well-informed on current events in this country and throughout the world is deemed indispensable by persons of all classes. The means of information are right at hand for the poorest and humblest person.
For a few cents daily a dependable newspaper may be had in the home or the office or workshop, end from this newspaper, if studiously and regularly read, any person may keep well-informed. Besides the news events of the day, from all over the world, as well as locally, the typical American family newspaper contains a great deal of high-class informing miscellaneous matter, which contributes to the enlightment, as well as the entertainment of readers. There is no excuse for anyone lacking general information.
RUTHLESS JAP FISHERMEN

THE TROUBLE IN CUBA
The political trouble in Cuba resulting in the resignation of four members of the cabinet is not fully explained in the dispatches, but is questionably due to the island finances, which, both private and public, are known to be in a desperate situation. During the orgy in sugar everybody in Cuba seemed to think that he had got rich quick and proceeded to incur obligations on that assumption. Goods of all descriptions were ordered of everybody in great quantities and at peak prices. When the slump came the goods could not be delivered for there was no money to pay for them. They could not even be landed, for there were no warehouses to receive them. Some cargoes were landed anyhow to release the ships until the wharves were piled high. And for a year past sugar has been sold, far as it could be sold, below cost of production, even at reduced wages, and enormous sums have been written off by the political wiseacres point to the fact that during his seven and a half years as state superintendent of weights and measures, Johnson made innumerable friends in every county and corner of the state, these friends now comprising a splendid organization actively campaigning in the interests of the former state official. Johnson, by the way, was appointed head of the state weights and measures department by Hiram Johnson in June, 1913, and so efficiently did he administer the affairs of that office that the federal government recognized him as an authority on weights and measures matters.
Johnson's patriotic work during the war period is expected to be a big vote-winning asset in his present campaign. He co operated with Ralph Merritt in the enforcement of food restriction measures, fathered the home guard movement and was active as a speaker in every bond drive. He was chairman of the nationality bond drive for Sacramento county.
Prior to his appointment to state office, Johnson had more than twenty years practical commercial and banking experience, which, his supporters claim, adequately qualify him for the position of state treasurer.
Johnson is now planning an aggressive canvass for votes that will take him into every county in the state. He is 42 years old, married and the father of four children.
CHANGING IDEAS
A boy's estimate of his parents shifts as the years go by. Up to five or six he thinks them the wisest individuals on earth. He quotes their sayings and considers their opinions final with the preference given to the maternal wisdom.
By the time he is old enough to take his bath alone he thinks over the matter and decides that mother isn't as smart as she thought she was, but father knows a good many things and cites to himself their respective opinions on swimmin', fishin', and going case for anyone lacking general information.
RUTHLESS JAP FISHERMEN
Commercial fishermen off the shores of Orange county are continuing to make sweeping raids upon the fish in these waters, with consequent disastrous results to the amount of game fish available to amateur deep sea anglers.
This became known coincidentally with the disclosure that fishing from piers and in the surf of the county's waters is better now than at any time during the past few years.
Fishing statistics assembled from various sources showed that week-end activities among the anglimaniacs were highly successful, taking it by large.
One amateur enthusiast went to far as to say that only two yellowtail had been caught out at sea so far this season by the rod and reel fraternity. Whereas, he said, only a few years ago by this time in the season no less than approximately twenty yellowtail would have been credited to the rod and reelers on one boat alone.
The answer?
Merely the ruthless tactics of the commercial fishermen, with their purse and round-haul nets.
Three Santa Anans the other day in their launch put in close to a commercial boat manned by Japanese. The orientals, the local men said, had a huge haul of fish. Plying gaffs, the Japanese were hooking out of this net and throwing back into the sea hundreds of barracuda that were considered too small for use. The hooks killed every one of the small fish.
"Why, if the Japanese can't use the smaller fish, do they insist on killing them?" the enraged Santa Anans ask.
"Why can't we have a law prohibiting such wasteful tactics?"

KEEPING INFORMED ESSENTIAL
Severe criticism of school teachers was made by Governor Campbell, of Arizona, who accuses instructors, as a class, of being woefully ignorant of everybody in great quantities and at peak prices. When the slump came the goods could not be delivered for there was no money to pay for them. They could not even be landed, for there were no warehouses to receive them. Some cargoes were landed anyhow to release the ships until the wharves were piled high. And for a year past sugar has been sold, far as it could be sold, below cost of production, even at reduced wages, and enormous sums have been written off by banks as losses. Still other sums remain as frozen credits, which it is hoped may gradually be worked off by the American shippers whose repudiated drafts had been discounted.
We in this country have fairly well worked out of our trouble and it has been thought that Cuba, which, of course, was far worse off than we, was slowly pulling out. But the Latin-American has never been strong on finance, and the government is usually the last to get the full strain of a serious depression. The nondescript character of the popular mass in those countries is a continuous temptation to unscrupulous politicians to get into high places for the purpose of peculation and there are hints that these cabinet resignations are of that class of men. Cuba is rich and solvent as a nation, regardless of present conditions. President Zayas seems to be a strong man, but, except for American pressure exercised in pursuance of the Flatt amendment to the treaty, it is almost certain that Cuba would now be in the throes of a revolution.
