Wallace, aged 77, died at his home on Bush street Saturday, after a two-months' illness. Mr. Wallace and his wife came here from Arkansas two years ago to reside with their son, Robert Wallace of the Plain Dealer force. Funeral services were held Tuesday at Backs Terry & Campbell's chapel. The number of divorce cases filed in the superior court in this county during the year 1922 was 212, according to the records. Last year 187 cases were filed. Officials declare, however, that the increase has not kept pace with the increase in population, consequently there is no cause for alarm. The home of Edward Backs at Placeia was ransacked by burglars on Monday night, the second time it has been looted within a few weeks. Mr. and Mrs. Backs weeer away from home in the evening and on returning home found that the door had been broken open and the house turned topsy-turvy. Mrs. Ernest Metcalf and her six-year-old son, of La Canada, and Harry Rutan, of Pasadena, were drowned at Balboa Monday, when a row boat in which they were crossing the channel capsized.

This city never does any boasting about the size and flavor of its garage truck, but it can hold its own with any other community in this respect. For instance a couple of radishes were brought to the Anaheim Feed & Fuel company's store by a Jap last week that should rank in the blue ribbon class. They are twins in size, a little over two feet in length and more than ten inches in circumference. They are perfectly solid, and weigh twelve and one-half pounds each. Tom Hollingworth has given up his position as mail messenger and has taken a job in the oil fields. He will move his family to Olinda. Tom took C. G. Billings' place as messenger after his return from Oregon, but he has grown tired of working thirteen hours and calling it a day. The fault of the government, he says, is like the fault of the Dutch. They give too little, and demand too much. Fullerton has a population of 9000, according to estimates based upon the number of gas meters there. The city has 2700 meters. Three and a half persons to a meter is the standard figure. According to the last census report in 1920, Fullerton had a population of 4500.

Byers and his wife were found dead in their bed at the club house owned by the Los Alamitos sugar factory Friday morning. Mr. Byers was caretaker of the club house and his wife was the cook.

During the year 1922 County Clerk Joe Backs issued 3016 marriage licenses, which far exceeds the high water mark of the previous year when 2464 couples were made happy. This was almost double the record of 1919, when the total reached 1544. In 1920 it was 2200.

The still recently established at the sugar factory began turning molasses into alcohol Saturday, and expect to keep it in operation for all time. Twenty-five men are employed, and they turn out seventy gallons an hour of pure, honest-to-goodness alcohol. Every drop of it, however, is taken charge of by minions of the law, and it is shipped north,east, south and west to be used only for medicinal, mechanical and scientific purposes. According to an announcement made by the Orange County Automobile club, application for motor licenses will not be received by the motor vehicle department until January 15. The club has tendered its assistance in receiving applications and will accept registration fees and licenses. A receipt will be issued for the money paid and will answer the purpose of a certificate until the official certificate is received from the department. This service will save motorists the trouble of driving into Los Angeles or mailing to Sacramento applications for the 1923 certificate and plates. A ship of the American merchant fleet recently arrived from the far east with a cargo of Turkish tobacco, rugs and other luxuries on which the government collected two million dollars in customs duties. A considerable part of this can be credited to the Republican tariff law. People who must have Turkish tobacco and Persian rugs can afford to pay a liberal tax to help support the American government.

Of course, these 6032 personus married in this county during the past year were not all residents of Orange county. They came from Los Angeles and various other sections of the southland, and some from a longer distance. Among the notables married here were Oliver Morosco and Selma Paley, the actress, and Pauline Fredericks and J. T. Rutherford. If the rate of increase is maintained licenses this year will run close to 5000. EDWARD BACKS' HOME AGAIN BURGLARIZED Thieves Ransack the Place But Secure Little Loot Confronted by the singular co-incidence that the robbery was the second to have occurred there in a month, sheriff's deputies investigated a burglary which occurred Monday at the residence of Edward Backs, 131 East Chapman avenue, Placentia, son-in-law of Sam Kraemer. Footprints found on the premises, Backs said, convinced him that at least two burglaries were concerned in the robbery. Mr. and Mrs. Backs were absent from their residence Monday. When they returned at 4 p.m. they found that the French windows at the front of the residence had been broken open. The burglaries were thus enabled to gain entrance to a second door, leading into the house proper. ALKENSTEIN'S CLEARANCE SALE OF DIES' APPAREL See The Windows . ALKENSTEIN'S ALKENSTEIN'S the lock of which they also forced loose. An investigation revealed that the intruders had overturned all the matresses and pillows and had strewn the contents of bureaus about the floor in their search for loot. So far as Backs was able to ascertain after a hurried examination, the burglars obtained nothing except two medals which Backs had won in track competition in his school days and which he valued highly because of their associations. The thieves, it was understood, took the precaution to disable a burglar alarm system, which Backs installed following the burglary of a month ago. In the first robbery the loot consisted of clothing valued at $1000, Backs said. Virtually every article of wear, including furs, men's and women's suits, shoes and underwear, was removed. Deputy Sheriff Herman Zabel, in charge of the county bureau of identification, visited the scene and obtained a number of fingerprints. Authorities were keeping a sharp watch for suspicious characters in the northern part of the county. SUGAR PRICES HIGHER Interest in the growing of sugar beets in Orange county had been stimulated by increased prices offered by the sugar makers, and acreage in the county will be fifty per cent or more greater than it was last year, C. A. Johnson, of Huntington Beach, manager of the Orange county interests of the Holly Sugar corporation, owner of the factory at Huntington Beach, and those at Dyer and on South Main street, Santa Ana, announced. At the same time, Johnson announced that in all probability the South COXEY NOW MOTORS Jacob S. Coxey, who gained fame by leading an army of the unemployed from Ohio to Washington many years ago, was recently fined for speeding in his auto. Soon after his Washington escapade, Coxey got down to business and made a lot of money. The same energy and organizing ability that enabled him to form and lead his "army" also made it possible for him to accumulate a fortune. Almost any agitator who has the ability to agitate successfully could, if he would, establish an industry which would furnish employment for those he is trying to make dissatisfied with industrial conditions.

C. A. Johnson, of Huntington Beach, manager of the Orange county interests of the Holly Sugar corporation, owner of the factory at Huntington Beach, and those at Dyer and on South Main street, Santa Ana, announced. At the same time, Johnson announced that in all probability the Southern California Sugar company's factory on South Main street, Santa Ana, never would be operated again. He expressed the fact that it would be impossible in the future to develop tonnage enough to warrant operation of the company's three plants. Field men of the Holly corporation are now making contracts for the Dyer and Huntington Beach plants, Johnson said, adding that interest manifested by beet growers indicated that the acreage planted to beets this year would be fully 50 per cent more than for the 1922 season. He declared that under the 1923 contract owners of land suitable for the production of beets should make big returns. While the price of beets will be based on the selling price of sugar, a minimum of $9 a ton has been established, regardless of the selling price. Last year the minimum was $7.50. On the basis of 7 cent sugar the 1923 contract will return a grower $10.50 a ton, as against $8.50 under the contract o flast year. At the same selling price, 18 percent beets this year will bring producers $12.60 a ton as against $10.20 last season, it was pointed out.
