IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Items of Local Interest Culled from the Files of Former Issues of This Paper 50 Years Ago this Week From Gazette, January 17, 1874. It is raining gold. The spirit of the age—Korn Whiskey. Goodman and Rimpau have received a new supply of sewed boots. J. W. Clark has just received a large variety of strawberry and raspberry plants. Clark and Austin have received a large invoice of candies from the Los Angeles candy manufactory. Heavy rains in the mountains are causing a rapid rise in the Santa Ana river. Jim Barham has purchased the Squires ranch from Mayor Toberman of Los Angeles. John P. Zeyn has sold to H.

M., that the cost of transmission on registered letters has been reduced from 15 to 8 cents. about to be established. Just above Dr. Beach's store is a ten-acre tract belonging to Capt. Glassell and planted to Languedoo Almond trees. Further on the nursery of Hayward and Cacey. Evidences of the increased value of the lands is shown in the fact that property which two years ago was held at a price ranging from $25 to $40 now met with a ready sale at from $60 to $160 according to location. In the five counties comprising the district known as Southern California there are over 900,000 sheep from which 3,000,000 pounds of wool was marketed in 1873. Ellizabethan muffs and overskirts are going out of fashion altogether. Apron fronts succeed overskirts and high standing collars the ruffs. Appropos of the revival of collars some new and pretty patterns are being shown. Died—In Anaheim, January 14th, August Schonck, aged 48 years, 4 months and 4 days. 25 Years Ago this Week From Gazette, January 19, 1899.

Ed Zeus writes from Sacramento that he has secured employment in the state printery office and looks forward to a season of success. Kalisher and Wartenburg of Los Angeles have rented their grazing portion of the Canyon de Santa Ana to P. Castereno as a sheep range. Whilst on a business trip during the past week we had occasion to visit the village of Orange, better known by its former name of Richland. Our approach was made from the Rodriguez crossing of the Santa Ana river, and via the old stage road to San Juan Capistrano. As emerging from the willow clad banks of the river, we beheld before us a vast plain, covered with cultivated fields and dotted with cozy farm houses with here and there patches of dark green foliage, indicative or orange and lemon groves, we could not refrain from contrasting its appearance now and as it was three short years ago when beyond the eastern bank of the Santa Ana river nothing met the eye but a sterile waste entirely devoid of habitation and over which traditions of former years told of countless herds of cattle roaming, but which then presented an appearance seemingly worthless. As well known the Chapman tract was laid out as an agricultural village with town lots in the center and subdivisions gradually increasing in size as they are distant from the village proper. On Glassell Street there are several business houses, amongst others the general merchandise establishment of Fisher Bros. who were the pioneer merchants of Richland. Dr. Geo. H.

The upper story known as Orange Hall and used by the Orange Grange No. 40, for their work and also by the lodge of Odd Follows Mrs. Perdomo and her young son Clarence returned on Saturday evening from Trinidad, Col., after an absence of some months visiting with relatives in that city. Ed Zeus writes from Sacramento that he has secured employment in the state printery office and looks forward to a season of prosperity. Ed is a first class printer, having learned his trade in this office and will doubtless hold his own with the best of them in Sacramento. Mrs. E. B. Merritt, wife of the well known furniture dealer, has been during the week quite seriously ill with an attack of la gripe at her home on Philadelphia Street. At latest reports however, she had taken a turn for the better and will probably soon be well again. Mr. and Mrs. Vinson and their daughter, Miss Marie Vinson, who have been spending some time here, the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Rex Cayce, left on Monday for Santa Ana where Mrs. Vinson will open a millinery store.

Neff was in town on Saturday afternoon to attend the meeting of the Walnut growers association and pay to shareholders the last of the season's dividends. The association shipped seven cars of nuts. There were 14 cars of nuts raised in this community, and Mr. Neff says there ought to have been 30. The net prices realized after reducting all expenses were 6.22 cents per pound for No. 1 soft shells, and 5.13 for No. 1 hard shells. Lieut. Neill Bailey writes from camp Churchman, Ga., that his regiment has been mustered out and the boys would soon all be on their homeward journey, all greatly disappointed at not being privileged to go to Cuba. Dr. Freeman was over from Fullerton on Thursday. The doctor has a son in Company H. of the New Mexican regiment of volunteers, the same company in which Neill Bailey, son of Dr. G. H. Bailey, of this city, is second lieutenant. The bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Werder were taken to the Santa Fe depot on Friday morning in time to catch the north bound train for Los Angeles where the bodies were taken for cremation at Rosedale cemetery. The pall bearers were F. A. Korn, J. P. Zoyn, T. J. F. Boege, M. Nelpp, Joe Dauser, H. A. Stough, H. Kroegen, F. TOO MANY LAWS Too much law—too little respect for it. That seems to be one of the greatest problems with which officials are confronted today. Congress, state legislatures, city councils, village boards, all seem obsessed with a mania for passing laws—more laws—and still more laws. The result is, there are so many laws in this country, of one kind and another, the people haven't even a conception of the majority of them are. The average citizen knows that he is breaking some kind of a law almost daily without realizing it. He knows also, that nothing is done about it. They are dead letters, never enforced. This in time leads him to look upon all laws with more or less contempt, or at least with indifference, and especially so with those that interfere with his business or pleasure. What we need in this country is less laws and more rigid enforcement, with a drastic punishment for the law enforcement officer who neglects to perform his duty. One-third of the laws we have would be ample, if they were obeyed. But they will never be obeyed as they should be so long as multiplicity creates contempt. McADOO CAN'T DODGE Mr. McAdoo replies to critics of his record as director general of railroads that the roads lost less under government management than immediately afterward. That's so; but Mr. McAdoo is the man who is responsible for both losses. About the last thing he did before he quit was to fasten new expenses on the railroad business of the country which caused all the subsequent losses. o'clock A.M., of said day, at the Court room of this Court, Department No. 2, in the City of Santa Ana, County of Orange, State of California, has been appointed as the time and place for hearing the application of Robert Hein, praying that a document now on file in this Court, purporting to be the last Will and Testament of the said deceased, be admitted to probate, that Letters Testamentary be issued thereon to said Robert Hein at which time and place all persons interested therein may appear and contest the same.

The bodies were accompanied to Los Angeles by F. A. Backs, Jos. Bennerscheidt and Ernest Niehaus, sons-in-law of the deceased couple and Fred Backs, Herman Backs, Ed. Bennerscheidt and Ed. Niehaus their grandchildren. A long line of friends in carriages followed the two hearses to the depot. George Champlin, son of E. W. Champlin, was found dead in his room at the Fullerton hotel on Friday morning. He was partly undressed and had evidently died while retiring the night before. He had been ill with la gripe and coroner Clark found that he had died of heart failure. The remains were interred in the Anaheim cemetery on Saturday the funeral being held from the residence of the deceased's father. Deceased was a native of San Bernardino and was 38 years old. His school days were passed in Anaheim where he was regarded as one of the brightest pupils in the school. The wife of W. J. Hill presented him with a twelve pound son on Monday. This makes four boys and six girls in William's family and William thinks we are going to have a good year. LEMON ASSOCIATION BUILDING NEW PLANT With E. B. Collier, secretary and manager, predicting the shipment in 1924 of 650 carloads of lemons, nearly double the shipments in 1922, the Central Lemon association of Villa Park carrying on plans for the erection of a new packing house this spring at Orange for use in taking care of the coming crop.

Plans for the new house became known today, following the annual meeting of the organization yesterday at the packing house in Villa Park. The new plant will have a capacity of 350 carloads and will cost approximately $75,000. The association now had 1700 acres of bearing lemons, it was shown, with 200 acres more coming into production. Collier suggested to the meeting and the directors that the membership of 390 would be divided into two associations, both to be operated under one management. The manager also stated that more acreage and members were available to the association, but that applications could not be considered at this time because the production of the present membership was all that could be handled with present facilities. The manager's annual report revealed that the association in 1923 shipped 358 cars of lemons, or 148,179 boxes of which 136,017 boxes were graded fruit and 7162 tree-ripe fruit. The graded fruit returned an average per 100 pounds of $6.026 for the Gold brand, $4.726 for the Comet brand and $2.30 for the Reflection brand, the three graded brands of the association. Receipts for the year were $642,713.02, showing a gain over last year of $41,000, although shipments this year were less than in the previous season. The present Mexican revolution is said to be "unpopular." For once Mexico and the United States agree. CERTIFICATE OF PERSONS TRANSACTING BUSINESS UNDER FICTITIOUS NAME The undersigned, Walter A.
