Heying has filed suit in the Superior court to collect $506.56, alleged to be due on a promissory note made out to Heying by George H. Beckman, together with interest and $150 attorney's fees. The case was filed for Heying, who resides in Anaheim, by Attorney Roger C. Dutton. C. W. Longmire, Santa Ana real estate man and former rancher, has purchased the 13-acre orange grove located at East North street and Rio Vista avenue, three miles north of Anaheim, for a reported consideration of $45,000. The seller is John Stirrat. The grove is set to 9-year-old Valencias. A well 366 feet deep, with a capacity of 100 inches of water, is situated on the ranch. The attractive residence on the property already has been occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Longmire and their son. Longmire lived in California 37 years. A large portion of the time he was manager of a citrus ranch near San Bernardino. Stirrat, who is living temporarily at 611 North Claudina street, Anaheim, said today that his plans for the future are uncertain. One of the applicants for citizenship in Judge Marks' court last week was asked into what branches the constitution divides the government. "The constitution divides the government into two branches," Democrats and Republicans," he replied. Evidently he didn't consider the Socialists, the Prohibitionists, the Progressives, the Ku Klux, etc., as having any weight with the framers of the constitution. Several days after it happened, Dr. George A. Palge discovered that his office had been burglarized, and a quantity of old gold carried away. The burglar gained entrance by crawling over the transom. Persons having an accumulation of old newspapers and magazines can get rid of them by calling up Anaheim post, American Legion. The Legion will put them to good use. Phone 913 for particulars. Rev. H. G. Schmelzer of the Zion Lutheran church, returned home Thursday from Lodi, where he attended a conference of his church. On the following day Mrs. Schmelzer and daughter, Ruth, left for Portland, Ore., where they will spend a month visiting Mrs. Operations at the plant of the Holly Sugar Corporation of Santa Ana will begin before the middle of August, according to a statement made by C.A. Johnson, manager of the company. Recent droughts have cut down the sugar beet area considerably and, although the crop to be shipped to the factory this year will be smaller than that handled a year ago, a fair-sized tonnage will be received at the plant. Johnson said. Workers of the company now are busy estimating the crop. Testing of the beets has been going on for the last few weeks. As soon as this work is completed, a definite date for beginning work at the plant will be fixed. More than 300 persons were employed by the firm last year, and approximately the same number will be used again this year, according to the manager. Most of the beets will come from the vicinity of Santa Ana. Joe Schweinfert of 124 North Jans street was winner of one of the sophomore scholarships at California Institute of Technology at Pasadena.

Tuesday morning his trial on both charges came up before Judge Williams in Superior court, but attorneys for the defense moved that the perjury charge be dismissed on the ground that the court lacked jurisdiction. After hearing the answer Wednesday morning submitted by District Attorney Nelson and Deputy District Attorney Mosley, Judge Williams sustained the motion and dismissed the charge. The charge of criminal libel still holds against him, and the court designated Friday, August 7, as the time at which the trial date will be set. If he is convicted on this charge, the penalty may be $5000 fine or one year in jail, or both. It is possible that this charge also will be dismissed on the same grounds.

Last Sunday Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell celebrated the fifteenth anniversary of their wedding, nearly 20 friends being present to assist them in a proper observance of the day. They were the recipients of many presents. July 14 is the anniversary of their wedding day, but owing to the fact that their son, who is an attorney in Los Angeles, was unable to get away from court, the celebration was postponed until Sunday. Anaheim's municipal flag is floating at half must this week as an expression of sorrow over the passing of William Jennings Bryan. Charles and Alice Miller, former residents of this city, but now living at Jamestown, Calif., have written their annual letter to this office and send greeting to all their old friends here about.

WEEDING OUT MISFITS General Harbord, president of the Radio Corporation of America, says that the day of cheap, amateur apparatus will soon pass, when "respectable manufacturers" will come into their own. It happened so in the automobile business, where a few years ago there were hundreds of assembled cars, some of which became orphaned every day; now the business has settled into a comparatively few, strong, capable hands that put out a reliable product that can be guaranteed to give good service. The radio has passed the toy stage; it is a real necessity. It's been lots of fun to build our own radios; it has kept half a million active boys out of the "bad" list by giving them something to do at home that absorbs all their spare time. But its big days are yet to come, as President Harbord knows. A fine classic theatre thousands of years old has been dug up in Asia Minor. Wonder if it had a smoking room for women? This is a free country, but most of the seats are already taken. by District Attorney Nelson and Deputy District Attorney Mosley, Judge Williams sustained the motion and dismissed the charge. The charge of criminal libel still holds against him, and the court designated Friday, August 7, as the time at which the trial date will be set. If he is convicted on this charge, the penalty may be $5000 fine or one year in jail, or both. It is possible that this charge also will be dismissed on the same grounds. The chief reason for Judge Williams' decision was that their had been no grand jury action on the matter, and this sustained the contention of the trustees when they were on trial, following Harbison's complaint. There had been no grand jury action in the case Mayor Mathis states that the trustees are satisfied with the decision, and are confident Judge Williams was in the right. The law provides a regular channel through which all criminal cases must pass, and apparently it was not followed in this case. President Colorado the annual resident held all day Park, Los at noon gram and open all other. KENSTEIN'S on End RANCE OW ON artment Participating LAGUNA BEACH WAS VERY DRY. Romance isn't found lurking around water systems very often, but Guy Skidmore will tell you that there is plenty of it in the water game. The story of how a handful of men did with little sleep and fought almost a losing fight for several months to keep Laguna Beach from going literally dry, can be told now that a great last effort has saved the day and a pump part, lost in transit from the East, can take its own time in reaching Laguna Beach. Always a problem, because of its scarcity, the water situation became almost a tragedy to Lagunans within the past two weeks. In May a small crack was noticed in the cylinder of the pump at the Aliso booster plant. The engineer figured that it would last about six weeks. Guy Skidmore, superintendent of the water works, ordered a new part from a concern in the East. Word was received that it had been shipped. Day by day, and week by week, the crack widened. The pump was run as slowly as possible to relieve the strain, but when 25,000 persons descended upon Laguna Beach for the hill climb and a like number crowded the town on July 4, the old pump was taxed to its utmost. Wire after wire was sent to the pump concern. There was no cylinder for that kind of pump on the Pacific coast, but the part had been ner hour and hot coffee will be supplied for all plenickers. All Coloradoans are urged to rally for a great day. Further information may be had of the president. Phone Angelus 8610, or of C. H. Parsons, Trinity 3511. Kiwanians Guests Of Orana Theatre A large representation of thembers of the Anaheim Kiwanis Club and their ladies were guests of the management of the Suburban Theatre at Orana on Thursday evening last. The theatre operated by Messrs. Barnette and McDawell, the former well known in local theoretical circles, having been connected with the Anaheim Community Players and other ventures, has been fitted up most comfortably, and as conditions warrant further improvements are being made. The plays presented are of a very high standard, clean, with plenty of comedy and tense dramatic situations. It is the aim of the management to keep to this standard, making the theatre a delightful place of entertainment for both old and young. The players, while not all stars, are each and every one proficient in their art, the cast for the various shows being particularly well balanced. The work of all the players is done in a most conscientious manner, carrying forward the aims of the management in giving the best of entertainment. President W. Warren Campbell of the Colorado State Society is announcing the annual summer picnic for all former residents of that state. It will be held all day, August 2, Sycamore Grove Park, Los Angeles, with basket dinners at noon. He promises a popular program and that county registers will be open all day so friends may meet each other. The program will follow the dinning made.

The players, while not all stars, are each and every one proficient in their art, the cast for the various shows being particularly well balanced. The work of all the players is done in a most conscientious manner, carrying forward the aims of the management in giving the best of entertainment. Service is the motto of the whole organization. There is plenty of parking space, with attendants to direct the traffic. An orchestra fills the short periods elapsing between acts. The Kiwanians who attended last week were most agreeably surprised with the standard of performance, courtesy and convenience which has been attained by the management of the Orana theatre. 480 New Laws Will Be Put Into Effect On Friday of last week 480 new laws enacted (or should one write it "perpetrated?") by the recent legislature came into effect. The new legal enactments concern nearly every business and industry in the state, and practically every man and woman in the state in some particular. It would be well, therefore, before going on with the regular routine of life in California, to get busy and ascertain if some one or perhaps more of those 480 new laws does not distinctly forbid your continuing to do that which you have been doing. Look it up! Play safe! Hire a lawyer. One statesman says that in America the people ought to vote as they drink. But if they did this their first vote might be their last. The younger generation seems to have changed the old song to read "Be it ever so humble there's no place at home."
