McFadden, county superintendent of public schools, delivered the dedicatory address. At the conclusion of the ceremonies the company were invite to an excellent supper spread under the arbors out doors. Here were all of the luxuries of the season, strawberries and the earlier fruits, coffee, tea, cakes and pastries, chicken, everything for a delicious meal. A dance closed the pleasures of the day, after which all retired in good order. The largest land sale ever effected in this county was made about a month ago, according to the records at the county clerk's office. The property disposed of embraces the whole of Cotalina island, opposite San Pedro bay. The consideration for which James Lick, of Santa Clara, has agreed to convey this island, is $1,250,000, the largest sum ever paid for any piece of property within this county. Gen. John G. Downey, Don Juan Forster and Max Strobel are the purchasers. The island is now used for grazing, affording a fine pasturage for thousands of sheep. The prospective value of the island consists of its undeveloped mineral deposits, among which are numerous veins of argentiferous galena of great richness. It also contains some of the most valuable deposits of copper on this coast. All these mineral deposits will sooner or later be worked, enriching the adventurers and benefiting the entire country. At the meeting of the railroad committee of thirty held in Los Angeles last Saturday, the following proposition obtained by Gov. Downey from has been incorporated with a capital stock of $10,000 and will move into more commodious quarters at the county seat. The incorporators are R. L. Bisby, E. R. Baker, M. M. Crookshank, W.

Miss May Foster has been in town from her home in Downey visiting with friends. Miss Foster will teach in the Fullerton schools the coming term. Misses Dora and Minnie Zeyn entertained a few friends at their home on Tuesday evening, when a pleasant time was enjoyed. Mr. and Mrs. Louis Passmore were in from their ranch at Olive on Tuesday visiting with friends. Mrs. H. D. Polhemus is sojourning at Newport Beach. Miss Flora Davis is visiting friends at Newport Beach. Mrs. S. Kuchel and Miss Jessie Melrose leave tomorrow for an outing of several weeks at Big Rock ranch near Escondido, San Diego county. Marshal Steadman is looking for some crawfish that strayed or were stolen from their owner at Newport Tuesday. Anybody seeing the crawfish dead or alive will assist in subserving the ends of justice by communicating with the marshal. The board of city trustees met in special session on Tuesday evening to have a conference with G. W. Lawrence, of Wybro and Lawrence, the firm installing the new electric light plant. There were present Trustees Rust, Lewis, Helmsen and Groat. Absent, Conrad. Mr. Lawrence reported that trouble with the exhaust pipe made it impossible to start up the works for the initial test that evening, but was confident that by Wednesday the machinery would be entirely ready for the start up. At the meeting of the railroad committee of thirty held in Los Angeles last Saturday, the following proposition obtained by Gov. Downey from the Southern Pacific company, was submitted to the committee: "The Southern Pacific company will build 50 miles in fifteen months from the time the county of Los Angeles has had a favorable vote on the subsidy. The bonds will only be required as the road is built, whenever five miles are built bonds will be issued for that amount. They will have nothing to do with any lateral road and will not be willing to give any portion of the subsidy towards building the road to Anaheim. The subsidy shall be an absolute donation, and will be 5 per cent on the assessed valuation of the real and personal property in the county of Los Angeles for the year 1872, which is supposed to be $15,000,000 less than the bonds already given to the Los Angeles & San Pedro Railroad company, and the stock in which road held by the county will be donated to the Southern Pacific company." Our members, William R. Olden and Major Stroble (who appeared as proxy for J. P. Zeyn) opposed the proposition and Messrs. Wilson, Olden and Rose were appointed to confer with the railroad people and obtain a full explanation from Stanford. We don't think that this county is going to make such an ass of itself as to accept this proposition to make a gift of themselves and their homes to Stanford. Gus Hansen was in from his ranch on Orangethorpe avenue one day last week and reports the beet harvest progressing satisfactorily, some of the tests of the Alamitos beets going 26 and 27 per cent saccharine. George S. Smith, of Santa Ana, the popular secretary of the Republican county central committee, was in town last Wednesday in attendance at the meeting of the Foresteh lodge. Ed Kraemer has homesteaded 16.89 acres in block H of the Kraemer tract, valued at $5000. The Klondyke fever is spreading and several young men seem to have it pretty bad.

T., where he occupies the responsible position of bookkeeper in the office of the Valle Verde Copper Mining company, which is owned by W. A. Clark and brothers, the proprietors of the Alamitos sugar factory. J. E. Mauerhan was down from San Francisco yesterday on a brief visit. He is in the furniture business and reports business better. ANAHEIM GAZETTE NOTHING NEW Ambassador Geddes thinks the establishment of an American merchant marine would be unwise. Not a new idea among British officials, for we read in the American Declaration of Independence that the mother colony oppressed the colonies by "cutting off our trade with all parts of the world."
