The board is now composed of Messrs Fischer, Zeyn, Korn, Kroeger, Laupnberger, Athern and Lorenz. We regret to learn that Rev. L. P. Webber of Westminster has become sadly impaired in health. Mr. Webber has done good work, both as a citizen and a minister, since his advent in Anaheim, and we trust that his days may be long in the land which is indebted much morally and socially to the example of an upright Christian gentleman. The following items regarding Santa Ana have been furnished us by our special correspondent in that place. The harvest season has commenced and every farmer is hard at work in the hay fields.—The two stores of Spurgeon and Frankel are doing a heavy cash business.—The father of Mrs. N. P. Palmer met with a serious accident last week when he was knocked down by the falling of a ladder, used by painters at work on the house and badly hurt about the back and shoulders.—A team belonging to Mr. Titchenal ran away, without doing any damage, however, except bruising slightly one of the hors- Frank Dyer has been sick during the week with an incipient attack of threatened pneumonia. He was in bed several days but is now able to be out again. Bird Beebe accompanied P. A. Drego on his outing trip to the mines in Kern County, leaving here on Tuesday afternoons train. They go by way of Mojave and expect to be gone some two or three weeks. Max Nebelung reports good progress on taking the city assessment. He reports the personal property showing a elight shrinkage as compare with last year. John Hartung and Prof. Thomas attended the concert given by the Knelsel quartet in Los Angeles on Saturday afternoon. In the evening they attended the performance of Cavillera Rusticana. They returned on Sunday evening and report having had a very enjoyable time. R. L. Coons departed on Friday for Indianapolis to attend the annual meeting of the national Association of Railway Postal Clerks, of which association he is vice-president. After the meeting he will visit his parents at Canton, Pennsylvania, whom he has not seen in many years. Mr. Coons is engaged on the postal route between Los Angeles and San Diego and each alternate week get a layoff and rejoins his family who reside here. Mrs. Mowry of San Francisco will give a concert in Los Angeles on the evening of June 15th. Mrs. Mowry is one of the best soprano singers in San Francisco and as she is well and favorably known in Annheim as the former Miss Bessie Hardin a number ANAHEIM GAZETTE of residents of this section plan to attend the concert. William Pechstein was in from Buena Park yesterday He is secretary of the Buena Park Beet Growers Association, a meeting of the stockholders in which has been called to assemble at Forresters Hall at the Park on Saturday, June 17th. Mrs. Berringer, mother of Mrs. Ernest Bentz has leased the Commercial Hotel from Mitchael Nelpp, and will shortly open it to the traveling public. Peter Weisel informs us the cannery is about ready for the approaching season, and but for the cool and cloudy weather would be in full operation in a week. He has contracted for about 160 tons of apricots, and when it is known that the cannery handled only 40 tons of apricots last year it will be seen that this year's output will be largely in excess of last year. Tons of other fruit and tomatoes have been contracted for and he looks forward to a long and profitable season. Prof. Little informs us there will be about fifteen pupils in his room who will enter high school next term. The high school attendance will then number about forty. There will be no graduation exercises this year, as the grammar grade pupils, instead of graduating, enter the high school, and there are no high school graduates this year. The high school will next year take up the eleventh year, this year's work having been devoted to ninth and tenth years, and the following year (the twelfth) will be the graduating year. Schools close a week from tomorrow. (June 16th) for owners of cattle in these countries escape without at least one visitation per annum and of late years it is not an uncommon occurrence for the same cattle to be infected with the disease recover, and again have a second and even third attack during the same year, indeed often in the same six month. The calves of most cows which are attacked by foot and mouth disease when nearing calving die; of cows and heifers in milk, about 25 per cent attacked remain with blind quarters, and some with quite useless udders. The losses through shrinkage of fat cattle are deplorable and must amount to many hundred of thousands of pounds worth yearly. But worst af all, in recent years there has appeared a new aftermath of this horrible disease, viz., it is noticed that after repeated attacks of foot and mouth disease, about 10 per cent of the herd after recovery, do not regain their usual health. They wear their winter of coats right through summer, and on the first close hod day, many of these cattle die of a kind of heat appoplexy, always near the water troughs. If deep water is available such affected cattle will go right into it and remain in it up to their noses until sunset, when they will again seek the banks of the river, and thus by submersion save themselves fro mdeath during the hot spell. KEEP SMILING "Keep sweet, and remember you have to play the game the other fellow's way" is the admonition given to visiting motorists who are planning to cross the border into Mexico. With the arrival of increasing numbers of tourists unfamiliar with border regulations, it is pointed out by the Automobile Club of Southern California.

Gardiner was selected by the Board of School Trustees at its last regular meeting, held on Thursday last, to attend the meeting of the school administration department of the Nation Educational Association, which will convene for the fourth annual convention of school boards of the United States, to be held in Los Angeles in July. Road Overseer, J. W. Duckworth, was in town from Garden Grove yesterday on his way to the road running south from the city limits to the bridge, which he sprinkles three times a week. This road once the worst in the county is now one of the best. Born.—To Mr. and Mrs. Innis Henry at Caledonia Grove, June 2nd, a daughter. Eighty two votes were polled at the school election on Friday and Mr. Clabaugh was elected without opposition. Joe Backs, Jr., has been appointed agent for Anaheim and vicinity of the Enterprise Laundry which has just started operations in Santa Ana. R. H. Gilman was elected School Trustee of the Placentia district at the election on Friday last. From thereport of the Anaheim Public schools for the month ending June 2, 1899 we find that the total number of pupils enrolled in the Central school was 236 and the teachers were Prof. Little, Miss Rector, Mrs. Hor, Miss Kerlin, and at West Anaheim 102, the teachers were Prof. Bird, Miss Fay, Miss Darley, Miss Burton, while at Katella there were 23 pupils and Mrs. Spencer was the teacher. Billy Renner writes another inter-selves fro mdeath during the hot spell. KEEP SMILING "Keep sweet, and remember you have to play the game the other fellow's way" is the admonition given to visiting motorists who are planning to cross the border into Mexico. With the arrival of increasing numbers of tourists unfamiliar with border regulations, it is pointed out by the Automobile Club of Southern California that annoyance and delays may be avoided by a little foresight and understanding. Most persons are familiar with the fact that durable merchandise cannot be taken from one country to another without paying the custom, but many do not understand why they must obtain bonds to drive their cars into Mexico. Here are a few suggestions from the auto club touring department. Courtesy pays at the border, as elsewhere. Cars must stop for inspection, both going in and coming out of Mexico. To go further than Mexicall or Tla Juana into Lower California the car must be covered by a bond which is obtained from any authorized broker, and costs $3. These may be obtained in advance by wiring the make of car, driver's name, license and engine numbers. This bond is in lieu of paying duty on the car on entering Mexico and the fee is the broker's charge. Firearms cannot be taken into Mexico except shot guns for hunting. Permits must be obtained for these at average cost of $4.50. These are good for the life ofthe gun. The game laws of Mexico must be obeyed in hunting and fishing. There is no use arguing with the guards at the border. Their duties are prescribed by their government, and exceptions cannot be made. The ancient adage, "When in Rome do as the Romans do", will be found a useful guide to those motoring into Mexico. WITH FULL UNDERSTANDING If the United States shall surrender on the merchant marine issue, it will be the first time we have deliberately pulled down the flag. It is true that in the first half century of the Republic this Nation led all others in the speed and efficiency and carrying capacity of her merchant ships, largely because this country had developed... Public schools for the month ending June 2, 1899 we find that the total number of pupils enrolled in the Central school was 236 and the teachers were Prof. Little, Miss Rector, Mrs. Hor, Miss Kerlin, and at West Anaheim 102, the teachers were Prof. Bird, Miss Fay, Miss Darley, Miss Burton, while at Katella there were 23 pupils and Mrs. Spencer was the teacher. Billy Renner writes another interesting letter to his brother Oscar Renner from Jaro near Hollo, P. I. where he is encamped with Co. I. Engheteenth Regiment. Their quarters were in a beautiful palace, and were faring well with no complaint except the terrific heat. FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE IN SOUTH AMERICA The ravages of the foot and mouth disease are set forth in an article describing its start and progress in South America, showing the necessity of stringent measures to stamp it out in this country. "The toll that is exacted by the foot and mouth disease in South America, which seems to vindicate the stringent measures taken in California, to stamp out the scourge, is related in the following article from the Buenos Aires 'Standard'." "Foot and mouth disease was introduced to South America via Argentina in a shipment of French Shorthorn bulls more than twenty years ago. From the estancia where these cattle were taken, it spread on all sides at the rate of 30 miles a day. Since this lamentable importation, Argentine and Uruguay have never been free from the disease, and today it is considered by far the greatest scourge of all bovine troubles in the Republics of the River Platt. Few WITH FULL UNDERSTANDING If the United States shall surrender on the merchant marine issue, it will be the first time we have deliberately pulled down the flag. It is true that in the first half century of the Republic this Nation led all others in the speed and efficiency and carrying capacity of her merchant ships, largely because this country had developed the fast clipper sailing vessels, and also true that following adverse legislation our shipping declined steadily from 1855 on, particularly during the Civil War, but this can hardly be said to have been a deliberate hauling down of the flag. Most people did not know what was happening. Now we shall act in the light of experience. We have seen an adequate fleet abandoned and then restored under a war emergency. We know that our merchant marine is now declining and is saved from complete destruction only by Government aid. We know that other governments, appreciating the value of merchant ships in time of peace or war, are affording aid to shipping under their flags. If we abandon the sea to our commercial rivals now, we shall do it knowingly and with full understanding of the consequences. EX-SERVICE MEN PREFERRED The Civil Service commission announces that it is its fixed practice to allow preference in appointment to positions to retired soldiers, sailors and marines, and also preference to the same class of employees when reduction of force becomes necessary.
