Wallace, city treasurer of Newport Beach, has been sued by the trustees for $12,829, amount of interest alleged to be due the city on public money deposited in Wallace's bank during the past 16 years.

Clabaugh returned on Thursday from a trip to Arizona, where she spent two weeks in Prescott and Jerome, visiting with her two daughters, Miss Lillian Clabaugh, who teaches in the Jerome schools, and Mrs. Vern Roberts, who resides in Prescott. Mrs. A. J. Countryman, niece of Mrs. Jason B. Root, has been visiting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Root for some days past. Mrs. Countryman recently returned from a trip to the Hawaiian islands, and gives a very descriptive account of the many curious sights and the customs prevailing in that portion of our country. There will soon be a new highway from Anaheim to Fullerton. The extension of Lemon street to meet Harvard street from Fullerton is now assured, and work on the project will shortly begin. The proposed road passes through John Pfeninger's ranch, and the right-of-way was secured some days ago, when the Superior court allowed him $3000 for the right-of-way. This new highway will greatly relieve the congestion on the state boulevard and, as it will not follow the cowpath blazed by Gaspar Portola 150 years ago, it probably will not have so many curves in it. Judge J. U. Hemmi, convicted of complicity in the Anaheim mail robbery and sentenced to seven months in the Orange county jail, was denied a pardon by the authorities at Washington. Hemmi claims his health is broken and jail life is too hard on him. He has two months yet to serve. An aged Mexican named Joaquin Parro was struck by a Santa Fe train while walking on the tracks at Richfield Monday. He was taken to Dr. Kay's office at Placentia, but his injuries were so serious that his life could not be saved. He died before the doctor could dress his wounds. Rainfall during the recent storm amounted to .69 of an inch, according to the Anaheim Orange and Lemon Growers' Association gauge. This gave a total for the season of 6.34 against 8.19 for the same date a year ago. Father Ricard, the Santa Clara prognosticator, predicts two or three storms for the balance of April and, if he is right in his readings of the signs in the sky, we will probably pass last season's figure. Contract for grading and graveling Ball road, south of Anaheim, was let by the supervisors to B. R., Ford, Santa Ana, on his bid of $24,028.68. Ford's bid for graveling Grand avenue, Santa Ana, for $4991, also was the lowest and he received the contract.

This program has been started to ward off the water crisis with which Orange will be confronted during the coming summer, according to reports of an investigation which disclosed that the water levels in the city wells had been gradually dropping, making imminent the abandonment of one of the wells during the summer. "Dodging autos in crossing the streets of Anaheim is rather a serious business now," said Capt. C. S. Troutman Tuesday, "but I have had worse experiences. Sixty-three years ago today the battle of Shiloh was raging, and I was in the midst of it. I spent the day dodging rifle balls, cannon balls, shells, grape and canister. It seemed the whole Confederate army had singled me out for destruction and fired tons of metal at me, but they never touched me. It was a bloody field, though. Thousands of boys were killed or wounded that day, but I was fortunate to get through without a scratch. I don't mind dodg- Paul Jones, who has been making this territory for many years past as a representative of the Zellerbach Paper Company of Los Angeles, has been promoted to be director of the advisory board at headquarters. This is a well merited recognition of the ability of a splendid young salesman, and his many friends in Orange county will be glad to learn of his good fortune. We shall miss his weekly visits, but our loss will be his gain, and we believe he will be one day president of the company. Plenty of room at the top, Paul. He is succeeded by Jack Sprigg, who has been in the employ of the company a number of years and comes well recommended as a traveling salesman. Representing a valuation of $40,814 compared with an average monthly valuation in the previous nine months of $34,464. 26 permits were issued in March, according to the report compiled last week. This amount was the largest since November, when the valuation was $52,850, and brings the total of the first quarter of 1925 to $72,342, with 58 permits. The largest single item was $5500. Nearly double the amount of fines was collected by City Recorder Kuchel in Sixty-three years ago today the battle of Shiloh was raging, and I was in the midst of it. I spent the day dodging rifle balls, cannon balls, shells, grape and canister. It seemed the whole Confederate army had singled me out for destruction and fired tons of metal at me, but they never touched me. It was a bloody field, though. Thousands of boys were killed or wounded that day, but I was fortunate to get through without a scratch. I don't mind dodging autos or any other thing that I can see coming toward me, but invisible bullets, carrying death, that sing through the air all about you are calculated to make a man somewhat nervous." Captain Troutman spent three years in the Civil war and dodged missiles of death in many bloody battles, but he was one of the fortunate ones who escaped death and serious injury. Balboa Motors Corporation, an automobile assembling company, was promised assistance in the construction of a factory at Fullerton and also five and one-half acres of land for the plant by members of the Fullerton realty board, Chamber of Commerce and industrial committee, which met with officers of the automobile concern. A subdivision will be opened probably on the Bastanchury ranch, which will consist of 100 acres. All real estate dealers will assist in selling lots in the subdivision, a portion of the profits going to the motor company for a part of the cost of building the factory. The project will have the recommendation and backing of the Chamber of Commerce. O. W. Heinz, president of the corporation, promised the men that in about a year after the construction of the plant that a body factory and a motor factory would be built near the original automobile works. Representing a valuation of $40,814 compared with an average monthly valuation in the previous nine months of $34,464. 26 permits were issued in March, according to the report compiled last week. This amount was the largest since November, when the valuation was $52,850, and brings the total of the first quarter of 1925 to $72,342, with 58 permits. The largest single item was $5500. Nearly double the amount of fines was collected by City Recorder Kuchel in March as compared with February. The total was $1607 against $867 the previous month. Of this former sum $982 was for violation of the prohibition laws, as compared with $620 in February. The rest in each instance was for traffic offenses. As Justice Kuchel collected $63 in March in fees, but nothing in fines, against $624 in fees and fines in February. Water connections mounted to 2710 and lights to 3554, both new high figures, according to the water and light department.
