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 AUGUST 21, 1975 David Davis and Richard Barham are the latest aspirants for the office of constable, their announcement appearing for the first time today. Davis has filled the position for several terms. His success in the pursuit and capture of criminals is well known and his services will, no doubt, be rewarded by the votes of the people on election day. Mr. Barham is a genial, whole-souled gentleman who will be hard to beat. The Democratic county central committee was organized as follows: E. E. Hewitt, chairman; G. H. Smith, secretary; A. C. Chauvin and M. J. Newmark, finance committee, and Thomas Gates, W. A. Workman, J. S. Carr and S. Lazard, committee of arrangements. Mr. King of Orange brought to The Gazette sanctum today a mammoth squash weighing 114 pounds and measuring 76 inches in circumference, which was grown without the use of water. Mr. Olden has one in his office, which was also raised by Mr. King, which weighs 127 pounds. Mr. King has also watermelons two feet in length. Dr. J. S. Gardiner commenced threshing today. He has about 500 acres in grain. Mrs. Flora Brown is now established in her new store, adjoining Goodman & Rimpau's. The Democratic Gathering—A very large number of citizens, actuated by a desire to hear speakers of the reputation of Wigginton and Ganahl, gathered on next Thursday or Friday. Hon. James A. Johnson will speak in the same place on Monday next. A thief entered Governor Downey's house a few nights ago and stole a musical box. As he reached the door, the box commenced to play and the thief, in great fright, dropped the box and ran. 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK AUGUST 23, 1900 Three rural delivery routes for Anaheim and vicinity! That is what the postoffice department, through Hon. J. C. Needham, congressman from this district, presented to our citizens on Saturday. Major John B. Jeffrey, special agent of the postoffice department, on that day approved the routes. Route No. 1 embraces the country south and west of town, taking in the Miraflores and Katella districts, extending through Claire and going west five miles to Centralia. Total length of route, 25 miles; area covered, 23 square miles; population to be served, about 1000; number of houses on route, 250. Frank Eastman will be the carrier for this route. Route No. 2 extends east as far as Tucker's corner, thence west to West Anaheim, to Brookshurst, and extending about eight miles west of Anaheim.

Mrs. Flora Brown is now established in her new store, adjoining Goodman & Rimpau's. The Democratic Gathering—A very large number of citizens, actuated by a desire to hear speakers of the reputation of Wigginton and Ganahl, gathered at Enterprise hall last evening. Ben Dreyfus presided, and the Messrs. Oscar George, J. S. Gardiner, R. W. Scott and E. W. Champlin were elected vice-presidents. Mr. Wigginton was the first speaker. His speech was an eloquent effort, and was received with audible appreciation by the audience. He devoted the greater part of his remarks to reviewing and criticising the record of his opponent, S. O. Houghton. He charged him with being a salary-grabber. He charged him with supporting the administration in all its schemes to oppress the South, with being an obstacle to the building of the Pacific railroad in this direction. He charged that Mr. Houghton advocated and voted for the bill to increase the tax on distilled liquors from 65 cents to 90 cents per gallon, this striking a direct blow at one of the greatest industries of Southern California. The speaker denied that he was opposed to Tom Scott's road; on the contrary, he was in favor of the competition of the thirty-second parallel road, but had no faith in Scott at a railroad builder. The speaker then pointed out the corruptions of the Republican administration and painted in glowing language the blessings which would follow a Democratic victory. He was followed by Frank Ganahl, who spoke with his usual eloquence. The meeting then adjourned. Henry Kroeger is erecting a windmill at the back of his brick building on Center street. He intends building a tank of 5000 gallons capacity. The will of Jacob Keller, deceased, has been admitted to probate, and Dr. W. N. Hardlin and Richard Helmann are appointed administrators. The festival last night was an enjoyable affair, and the church funds were swelled by the addition of $65. Misses DesGranges and Helmann furnished music for the occasion, and Mr. Saxon gave a reading which added not a little to his well-deserved fame as an elocutionist. There are 9000 names on the great register of this county. Mrs. P. C. McKinnle and Mrs. William Crowther, who so kindly interested themselves in the case of Mrs. Heffner, have collected from various sources the sum of $41,50. Thirty-four dollars of this money was paid to the nurse, and the balance was given to Mrs. Heffner. William B. Pechstein, secretary of the Buena Park Beet Growers' Association, has disposed of its beet dump and scales to the Chino sugar factory, and will go out of the beet growing business. Herman Harris, the well-known Santa Ana merchant, was a visitor in town on Sunday. Mrs. Dr. Lightfoot (nee Fleming) is here from Arkansas on a visit to her mother, Mrs. W. J. Smith. M. F. Reagan was in town from Almitos for a short sojourn on Saturday. Jack Hunter was over from Fullerton yesterday. He says rural delivery works to a charm over his way. Mrs. Josephine E. Butler of St. James Park, Los Angeles, has been the guest during the week of Mrs. Cora Browning. P. A. Derge is at his mines in Kern county this week. During his absence his place in the drug store is taken by Mr. Clark of Whittler. J. H.

The ladies desire to return their sincere thanks to the citizens for the liberality shown in this case. Horace Young of Westminster, a cousin of Rev. Robert Strong of that place, became deranged during the past week and is in a dangerous condition. His illness is attributed to bathing in cold water while overheated. He is attended by Dr. Yocum of Anaheim and Dr. McCoy of Westminster. Mr. Olden informs us that the members of the eastern editorial party who visited us were very enthusiastic over the wonderful resources of our valley.

Refreshments were served and all of the children had a delightful time. B. H. Bancroft was in town one day last week from his home on Orange-thorpe avenue. Mr. Bancroft is a subscriber to rural free delivery in the Fullerton district, and pronounces the system a great improvement over getting mail once or twice a week. Dr. Johnston left on Tuesday for Toronto and other points East, and expects to be gone about six weeks. In his absence Dr. Pousette of Orange will have charge of his practice and will be in his office daily from 3 to 5 p.m. Dr. Johnston intends taking a special course at Trinity University while absent.

He lost his way in the dark and arrived home some time after midnight. He expects to go to San Bernardino soon to take a place in the Santa Fe machine shops. The residence of J. B. Cameron of West Anaheim was destroyed by fire on Sunday morning. A lighted lamp left in the house is supposed to have exploded. The building and contents were entirely destroyed.

There is the human equation, which is a very dubious foundation upon Institutions of State Hold 26,000 Persons Fourteen Hundred Added Each Year to the Roll More than 26,000 Californians live in exile of public or private institutions. This "shadow" population of the state is increasing at the rate of approximately 1400 each year, which may or may not be of alarming significance, except as a housing problem. Approximately half of the number are in hospitals for the insane; another group is represented in the home for feeble minded. Less than 10,000 are in penal institutions and industrial schools. Two thousand of the state's children are in the three industrial schools or on parole. Facts and figures contained in the quarter ended July 1 was 348, a total of 371 having entered the various institutions, while 23 were released. San Quentin penitentiary has the largest roll of any state institution. There are 2190 prisoners at Folsom, the state's other prison. San Quentin houses the "first termers," while Folsom holds the more hardened felons who have been sentenced two or more times. There are 60 women convicts at San Quentin; none at Folsom. The figures covering the two state prisons include those on parole, that number being 1309 from San Quentin and 229 from Folsom. The six state hospitals for insane Agnews, Mendocino, Napa, Norwalk, Southern California and Stockton, have 18,378 patients, including 1097 on parole. Stockton has 3227, Napa, 3064; Southern California hospital, at Patton, 2679; Agnews, 1940; Norwalk, 1288; and Mendocino, 1180. The south has 4067 patients; the north has 9311. During the quarter there was an increase of 170 patients. The Sonoma state home for feeble-minded has a roll of 2475, including 514 on parole. Juvenile delinquents in the state total 2013, of which only 288 are girls, according to the director's report. Of the girls, 106 are on parole and only 183 are actually in the institution at Ventura. First Bureau of the National Automobile Club. There is the human equation, which is a very dubious foundation upon which to increase speed limits; there are any number of mechanical difficulties which might spell disaster and, too, there are a great many hazards presented by the road surface itself. Sixty miles an hour will never be a safe rate of speed on any highway in any state until drivers are more uniformly vigilant, until cars are more carefully inspected and until surfaces are so perfected as to eliminate the possibilities of skidding, disintegration under stress and variability under changing weather conditions. If you put a 60-mile limit on a highway, be assured that those drivers who might be classed as lame, and halt and blind, will avail themselves of an opportunity to enjoy the thrill of speed. You cannot get away from the human hazard without a more critical examination of the man at the wheel. Put a 60-mile limit on a highway and you will find there many a car that belongs to the scrap heap, but which just keeps on plugging along until the grand smash. Set a 60-mile range on the highways and the sky will be the limit, and the necessary accessories will include a harp and a pair of wings. The state speed laws, if adhered to at all times, provides a sufficiently rapid pace for motor travel and strict adherence to the speed limits outlined in the Motor Vehicle Act will do much toward making the highways and byways safer places on which to drive. Two of his scientific acquaintances whom Clarence Darrow forgot to quote down at the Dayton trial were Leopold and Loeb. NOTICE OF SALE OF REAL PROPERTY BY TRUSTEE UNDER DEED OF TRUST WHEREAS, Herman P. Noll and Nana J. Noll, his wife, as trustors, did on the 2nd day of February, 1924, execute a certain deed of trust, dated February 2nd, 1924, to the Abstract & Title Guaranty Company, a corporation, as trustee, for the benefit and security of The Anaheim National Bank, a corporation, as beneficiary, to secure the payment of a certain promissory note dated February 2nd, 1924, made by Herman P. Noll and Nana J. Noll, his wife, for the sum of Sixty-two Hundred Dollars ($6,200.00), due one year after date, with interest from March 11th, 1924, until paid, at the rate of eight per cent per annum, payable quarterly, and if not so paid to be compounded quar- held in San Francisco, August 22 to 28, is going to bring manufacturers and radio engineers from all parts of the United States; according to statistics being received by F. S. McGinnis, passenger traffic manager of the Southern Pacific Company, from district representatives located throughout the country. Special trains, equipped with all the latest types of radio receiving sets will be used to transport eastern manufacturers and dealers to the exposition. Each train will be fitted out with a different type of set, enabling the traveler to compare performance while en route and to keep in touch with current events. It is expected that more than 100,000 persons will pass through the gates to the exposition during the seven days of festivities. All popular announcers from the large western broadcast stations will cooperate with the radio show committee and attend. A special broadcast studio will be erected on the main stage of the auditorium, in view of the public. Programs will be put on the air daily, giving the public an opportunity of seeing "behind the scenes" of a broadcast studio. There will be government exhibits by the Department of Commerce, district radio supervisor's office, as well as the Bureau of Standards. The army, navy and marine corps will also be represented with special and unique exhibits. New stunts, educational features, startling displays of what in radio and musical programs will keep activities abuzzing during the seven days of the radio show, is the promise of the radio exposition committee to fans. VALUE RECEIVED "Here's a quarter for you." "Thanks," said the fortune teller. "You will soon inherit $20,000." "Is that all?" "That is all I can afford to prophesy for 25 cents." Press dispatches from Montana say that the state is again back on the highroad of prosperity, which is going to make the going a lot tougher for the radical politicians out there who wax fat on calamity. Speed Limits and Some Safety Rules There is one feature of the automobile that is emphasized perhaps too much. That is the element of speed. Advocates of safe and sane driving were startled a few weeks ago to read in the public press an article purporting to issue from the official headquarters of a large organization which has had much to do with safety campaigns in the past advocating highways for "through tourists" with a speed limit of 60 miles an hour. Now, 60 miles an hour may be our motor speed in some far distant future, but to put an official approval on this rate of travel in the present stage of motoring and driving is to court a considerable increase in the accident lists and in the fatal mishaps daily recorded throughout the country. There are too many factors which enter into the hazard of speed to allow a 60-mile rate of travel without expecting trouble, according to the Safety 18,378 patients, including 1092 on parole. Stockton has 3227, Napa, 3064; Southern California hospital, at Patton, 2679; Agnewa, 1940; Norwalk, 1288, and Mendocino, 1180. The south has 4067 patients; the north has 9311. During the quarter there was an increase of 170 patients. The Sonoma state home for feeble-minded has a roll of 2475, including 514 on parole. Juvenile delinquents in the state total 2013, of which only 288 are girls, according to the director's report. Of the girls, 106 are on parole and only 183 are actually in the institution at Ventura. The Preston School of Industry, at Ione, has a roll of 1095 boys, including 431 on parole, while at the Whittier state school there are 530 boys on the rolls, 218 being on parole. There was no net increase in the juvenile institution inmates last quarter, the increase and decrease balancing at 23 each. There are 124 inmates of the state's industrial home for adult blind. The department report notes that there were 995 inmates of private institutions in the state June 30, 1925.
