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 February 27, 1875 D. G. Sorenson has commenced the erection of a fine costly building on the Boldt vineyard. A. G. Smith has just received a barrel of chestnuts, beech and other nuts from the East. Episcopal services will be held tomorrow morning at Enterprise hall by Rev. Mr. Neals. We hear that Fischer Brothers have bought 6000 acres of land in Rancho Las Virgines and will remove their sheep to their new purchase. T. C. Hull, manager of the Westminster Co-operative Store, informs us that the average monthly receipts amount to about $1700. John Fisher has laid out a street 86 feet wide through his vineyard. A row of eucalyptus trees on each side makes it a beautiful avenue. He has some very desirable lots for sale. Among the participants in the terpischorean festivities on Monday night were H. McLellan of Los Angeles and his charming cousin, Miss Bradbury of Santa Barbara. that Mr. Richards has offered, for a compensation of $20 per year, to keep the truck and apparatus in good working order. The prospect of an abundant harvest has caused our merchants to report an increase of business during the week. H. Blanken expects to remove to his new and commodious quarters today. Clark & Company will do likewise in a few days. The store they now occupy will be fitted up as a tinshop by Messrs. Lowe and Leach, who have already received a large stock of tinware. Stappenback is busily engaged in putting a new front on Dreyfus' building on Center street, which will be occupied by Goodman & Rimpau. Postmaster Higgins will, in a few days, commence building an addition to his drug store and post office. When completed, the post office will be a model of convenience. To accommodate the demand, he will have 60 lock boxes. 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK March 1, 1900 Bishop Johnson holds services at the Episcopal church a week from next Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Plerotti were in town on Tuesday afternoon from their Blaine. John Fisher has laid out a street 86 feet wide through his vineyard. A row of eucalyptus trees on each side makes it a beautiful avenue. He has some very desirable lots for sale. Among the participants in the terpischorean festivities on Monday night were H. McLellan of Los Angeles and his charming cousin, Miss Bradbury of Santa Barbara. R. R. Haynes, the superintendent of the Western Union Telegraph Company, was in town last week. He intends doubling the lines, and Harry rejoiceth thereat. The merits of Tim Carroll's tree transplanter seem to be fully appreciated. It is necessary for him to occasionally visit the various orchards and nurseries and insist that the owners pay due respect to his patent. A recent visit to Los Angeles disclosed the fact that several parties were infringing on his rights. Charles Harter has purchased 10 acres of land from John Adams, paying therefor $1000. The land is adjacent to the railroad depot. L. W. Kirby has purchased the old schoolhouse lot from N. H. Mitchell for $500. We regret to learn that Dr. David Taylor is seriously ill with pneumonia. The Los Angeles and San Bernardino Land Company are about to lay off two sections of land into town lots. The site is near Costa station, about five miles from Anaheim. It is probable that the new station will be named Northam. Messrs. Holman and Davis have bought D. W. Field's farm of 100 acres. Mr. Field, we understand, will leave for Monterey in a short time; a circumstance that we, in common with his many friends, exceedingly regret. Mr. Holman, one of the purchasers, was formerly agent for the Pacific Mail Steamship Company in San Francisco. We had the pleasure yesterday of a call from Mr. St. John of the Boston Post. We regret the necessity which compels him to return to his post of duty in a few days. 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK March 1, 1900 Bishop Johnson holds services at the Episcopal church a week from next Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Pierotti were in town on Tuesday afternoon from their Flacentia orange ranch, visiting with friends in town. Ed Kraemer was in town the other day, almost entirely recovered from the effects of the injuries sustained by him in the runaway accident of some weeks ago. A very enjoyable social event was the surprise party arranged by Mrs. Cohen for her daughter, Miss Melanie Cohen and Miss Cerf of San Francisco on Tuesday evening. Various games were played and an old-fashioned candy pull was much enjoyed. The Ladies' Aid of the Presbyterian church will meet tomorrow afternoon at the home of Mrs. L. E. Miller. Mr. Neff returned on Saturday from a week's trip to San Francisco and San Jose. Mr. McFadden sold 300 boxes of oranges to Thomas Strain, who shipped them to New York. Advices were received some days ago to the effect that a finer lot of fruit had not been received in that city this year. Only three puffy oranges were found among them: J. B. Rae is entertaining his brother, David Rae of Guelph, province of Ontario, Canada, and his brother-in-law, James Semple of the same place. Marshal Steadman is overhauling the fire engine at the firehouse, and the old machine will probably soon be given a trial on the streets. Dr. and Mrs. Chambers of Philadelphia spent Friday with Mr. and Mrs. John Hanna of Miraflores. Mrs. Chambers and Mrs. Hanna are old-time friends and were schoolmates 50 years ago.

We regret the necessity which compels him to return to his post of duty in a few days. George and Robert Kuchel will leave today for the mining regions of Nevada. A lad named Marlon Freeman of Santa Ana suffered amputation of his leg above the knee one day last week. The operation was made necessary as the result of a slight bruise on the knee a short time ago. On Monday evening Kroeger's new hall was formally dedicated to the god of amusements. A happy, fun-loving crowd gathered and danced until early Tuesday. Nearly $100 was realized, which will be applied to benevolent purposes. The supper at Planter's was all that could be wished. "The rosy cheek of beauty paled, they dancing for awhile forsake; they went to supper and returned, flushed with wine and gorged with cake." A meeting of citizens to discuss the propriety of reorganizing the defunct fire company was held on last Saturday evening. S. J. Davis presided and A. W. Steinhart acted as secretary. On motion of John Fischer, a committee consisting of Messrs. Durr, Zeyn and Menzel was appointed to take an inventory of the property of the company and ascertain what is needed for efficiency. The committee will make a report this evening at Enterprise hall. We understand the fire engine at the firehouse, and the old machine will probably soon be given a trial on the streets. Dr. and Mrs. Chambers of Philadelphia spent Friday with Mr. and Mrs. John Hanna of Miraflores. Mrs. Chambers and Mrs. Hanna are old-time friends and were schoolmates 50 years ago. The annual meeting of stockholders in the Anaheim Union Water Company on Saturday last, went off as smoothly as an old ladies' tea party. There was little, if any, friction and the program was carried out without the slipping of a cog. The old board was practically re-elected. A. H. Cargill and A. S. Bradford are the new members. They replace W. J. Fay and E. K. Benchley, both of whom declined to serve again. The new board consists of A. H. Cargill, J. B. Rae, A. S. Bradford, A. Pierrotti, William Crowther, M. Nebelung and C. C. Chapman. Mrs. George Bauer left yesterday for Salton, Riverside county, in response to a telegram announcing the illness of her daughter, Mrs. G. L. Curtis. The first meeting of the T. U. G.'s was held at the home of Misses May and Irene Cargill in Brookshurst last Thursday afternoon. The club was entertained with a "bachelors" lunch. Dancing and cards were indulged in and later lunch was served. Those present were: Misses Adele Strodthoff, Theresa Fay, Poldine Hermann, Margaret Wilson, May Cargill and Irene Cargill. The next meeting of the club will be held at the home of Mrs. Strodthoff on March 29. Challenge—I, the undersigned, having heard that Ben Johnson has picked ANAHEIM GAZETTE 175 boxes of oranges in a day, am ready to go him a race for $25 or more, if he wishes. Your truly, Tony Lopez. The patrons of Dickel's and Harris and Falkensteins' have been for some days past served with choice morsels of Captain Swift's canned goods, consisting of chicken tamale, onchilladas, chili con carne and frijoles a la Espanol by Miss Haff of San Francisco, who assures us that the chicken tamales are not manufactured out of the ordinary sea gull of commerce, but are of real chicken, and we can testify to the fact that they are hot stuff. So can John Hartung and John Eymann. Miss Haff informs us that these two gentlemen have the most robust appetites she ever had the misfortune to behold. We advise our young friend, Clarence Smith, the champion tamale biter of Orange county to come in and try one. Ed Morgan and Albert Heffner have gone into the fish business and receive each day consignments of fish from Capistrano. Newport and other points. The Farmers' Club held an interesting as well as largely attended meeting at the residence of W. J. Fay on Monday afternoon. The club took steps to engage the interest of all the farmers' clubs of Orange county, as well as the prominent horticulturists, to co-operate in calling a mass meeting of all the fruit growers in the county to formulate a petition to the supervisors, asking them to assist in the work of scale destruction now actively begun. The club discussed co-operative marketing, the orange situation and other subjects. Miss Edith Fay favored the assemblage in Brea canyon. The company recently brought in No. 37 as a 900-barrel producer. The Standard Oil Company recently spudded in No. 219 on Kraemer lease No. 2. The Standard Oil also will drill a new well soon in the Reservoir Hills at Huntington Beach, about a mile from the city. This well is in the midst of proven territory. Bruce & Barker at Newport Beach will drill at new well on Newport Heights shortly. This is partly proven territory, the Interstate Oil Company No. 1 having been the first well to be brought in in the vicinity. Crude oil now is bringing $1.40 base price, at the well, this figure being for oil of 12-19 degrees gravity with three cents added for each additional degree. More girls now are painting their cheeks but not so many men are painting their noses. J.C.

The club discussed co-operative marketing, the orange situation and other subjects. Miss Edith Fay favored the assemblage with a vocal solo, being accompanied on the piano by Mrs. Erdman. Mrs. Fay served refreshments, and later the club adjourned to meet at Brookshurst the last Monday in March. ROMANCE IN ACHIEVEMENT Names and successes of millionaires are an open book to the public mind. Everyone is familiar with the inventions which have made fortunes for their creators and promotors. All know that Carnegie made millions in steel, that Rockefeller amassed a fortune with oil, that Alexander Graham Bell was the world's greatest telephone financier, that Henry Ford is acquiring millions from automobiles. Every millionaire is thus associated with the source of his wealth. The result is that in the popular picture of a millionaire space is given only for success. How many men and women know that Andrew Carnegie once faced bankruptcy? All know him as a mill hand in his youth, but the public knows little or nothing of the vicesitudes encountered by him during his long business career. Alexander Graham Bell spent years seeking capital for the promotion of his first telephone while newspapers, capitalists and scientific journals ridiculed him and his idea. John N. Willys, the automobile manufacturer, made a fortune before the war. He lost everything in the post-war crash, but in the last five years has amassed a greater fortune than the first. Few know of his reverses until he published the story in a magazine autobiography. August Heckscher lost millions in a crash in the zinc market and was counted among the down-and-outers. He is again one of the millionaires, but how many think of him as once bankrupt? Ford's rise to industrial and financial prominence followed discouraging years of experimentation and promo- Register No. 9446—1917 Law NOTICE OF TRUSTEE'S SALE WHEREAS, JAY C. LONG and EDITH E.

Few know of his reverses until he published the story in a magazine autobiography. August Heckscher lost millions in a crash in the zinc market and was counted among the down-and-outers. He is again one of the millionaires, but how many think of him as once bankrupt? Ford's rise to industrial and financial prominence followed discouraging years of experimentation and promotion. Ford stock, worth thousands today, was once considered valueless. It took 10 years to sell the first harvester, but who today ever heard of McCormick as an impoverished inventor and promoter of farm machinery? Mark Twain lost a fortune in promoting the typesetting machine. The public ever hears and talks of the world's successes and remains peacefully oblivious to the early struggles of the successful. The reason is self-evident. Humanity is interested in success and not in failure. Tragedy is no longer popular and more romance is found in achievement than in the struggle for achievement. OIL NOTES According to the weekly bulletin of the state oil and gas supervisor, five of the 19 new oil wells started in California last week were located in Orange county. Of particular interest was filling of a notice of drilling by the James Oil Company in wildcat territory in Carbon canyon and by the Union Oil Company in wildcat territory east of Olinda. The operation will be on the land company's tract. The nearest well to the latter is two miles south, east, operated by the Olinda Oil Company. The Brea Canyon Oil Company is preparing to start drilling on No. 37, WHEREAS, said Security Housing Corporation, being the holder of said note under said Deed of Trust, did record in the office of the County Recorder of the County of Orange, California, (being the County wherein the real property covered by said Deed of Trust, and hereinafter described, is situated) a notice of said default and of its election to sell or cause to be sold said property to satisfy said obligations, which said notice was recorded on November 6, 1924, in Book 24, Page 240, of Miscellaneous Records of Said County.
