Work on the new theatre property, under course of theatre was halted some time ago, when litigation over items developed. Attorney Leonard Evans, of Anaheim, represents A letter has been received at this office from Frank F. Davis, who is now a resident at the California Pythian home at Kenwood. He went to that institution on January 8, and apparently has not fallen in love with the climate in that section. Kenwood is 531 miles north of Anaheim, and Frank declares he now understands why everybody is flocking to Los Angeles and Anaheim. While employed as janitor at Central school Mr. Davis fell from a step ladder several months ago and received injuries from which he has not yet recovered. It is hoped by his friends that under treatment at the home he will soon regain his usual health. W. O. F. Schwenckert, former resident of this city, was in town Tuesday purchasing some nursery stock to extend the walnut acreage on his ranch in the San Timoteo valley. Mr. Schwenckert has two hundred acres in the valley and is putting a portion of the ranch in trees. His former plantings have made splendid growth and promise to yield big profits. The valley was visited by a fine rain some days ago. Mr. Schwenckert's home is in Los Angeles, but he spends a large portion of his time on the ranch. Mrs. Edna M. Schmidt, of Anaheim, was awarded a decree of divorce from Harry H. Schmidt on grounds of cruelty, in Superior Judge E. J. Marks' court. Attorneys Allen and Lyon, Fullerton, represented Mrs. Schmidt. James Wilton, alleged "rug burglar," Wife Says Husband Defrauded Her Bring Suit to Recover Large Sum of Money Declaring that her former husband, Dr. D. F. Royer, of Orange, defrauded her of $16,460 in a land deal, Hetty M. Royer, of Long Beach, has a suit on file in superior court against the physician, demanding referment of an agreement requiring her to pay him $38,000 for 40 acres of land. The agreement, as it stands at present, calls for a balance of $26,000. Mrs. Royer demands that this balance be ordered reduced by the court to $9540. Attorneys Marshall Stimson and Noel C. Edwards of Los Angeles, represent her in the case. According to the complaint on file, Dr. Royer sought the aid of his ex-wife, in January, 1925, in purchasing a tract of land, which required a down payment of $24,000. He told her, she said, that he was paying $550 per acre for the property. He warned her against investigating the deal herself, or consulting the owners, saying that it would spoil the deal, she stated. If she would join him in the venture, she alleged, it was agreed that he would resell her 40 acres of the property, applying on its purchase the $12,000 that she provided for the down payment of the entire tract. She paid him the $12-000 and agreed to pay another $26,000 for the 40 acres. Later, she states, she discovered that he had paid but $550 per acres for the land and was privately making a profit of $400 per acre from her. He had charged her interest on the higher figure, and had therefore overcharged her $460 in interest as well as $16,000 on the purchase price, she claims. She demands that she be credited with that sum on her contract, and that the balance due be adjudged $9540. Amateur Showman Gets In Trouble is putting a portion of the ranch in trees.

Schmidt on grounds of cruelty. In Superior Judge E. J. Marks' court, Attorneys Allen and Lyon, Fullerton, represented Mrs. Schmidt. James Wilton, alleged "rug burglar," was held to answer in superior court on three charges of burglary, when he appeared before Justice K. E. Morrison for preliminary examination. Ball was fixed at $2000 on each charge. Unable to post that amount, Wilton remained in jail pending proceedings against him in superior court.

Three of the alleged burglaries credited to him were used as the basis for the complaint filed in court. So dense was the fog at Buena Park, Monday night that neighbors of the H. B. Crockett family knew nothing about the fire which destroyed the Crockett home at 1 o'clock Tuesday morning, until after 11 o'clock. Awakened by the crackling flames, Mrs. Crockett found that escape through the door was cut off and aided her sick husband and 3-year-old son, also ill, to climb out a window. They were forced to stand by and watch their home consumed by flames. The family took refuge in the home of a neighbor, J. Donahue, some distance away.

Agreements were reached whereby a portion of this sum was repaid at Morse by the corporation and all stockholders agreed to pay him their proportionate share of the remainder. Greough, it is said, did not enter into this agreement. His proportionate share Morse claimed, would be $4870. The court rendered judgment against Greenough for that amount, dismissing the case against all other stockholders originally sued by Morse. Attorneys Launer & Collins, Fullerton, represented Morse.

Hernandez was arrested for asserted embezzlement of a film dealing in politics in Mexico. He tried showing the picture in small communities like Stanton and Los Alamitos, and then thought he would try "big time," so he booked a performance at Orange. Only fifteen of his countrymen being sufficiently interested in Mexican politics to attend, at 10 cents each, they netted Hernandez $1.50, while the costs of his performance totaled $25. Hernandez became fearful of financial entanglements with the film distributor, Antonio Ramirez of Los Angeles, and fled to San Jose, where he had friends, and thought he might replenish his fortune. Ramirez swore to the embezzlement complaint and Hernandez was brought back. He had the film with him and restored it to the owner. He told of his domestic troubles, which included the death of his child, and the authorities, deciding he had intended no harm, released him.

The two daughters and son of the late Mrs. Emma Hunton of Anaheim share in most of her $200,000 estate, according to provisions of her will, which was filed in superior court for probate. Attorney Clyde Bishop of Santa Ana represents the petitioning heirs. The Hunton will includes a legacy of $1000 for the grandson of the deceased, James Owen Jay Young, son of Mrs. Lena Jay, who is made trustee of the legacy.

In the four years that these guardians of the peace have been working in Iowa, they have captured nearly 100 bank robbers. The capture of bank bandits depends largely on telephone operators. In fact, the telephone organization plays a most important part in the work of the Vigilantes who are now organized in almost every county in the state and who, for most part, serve without pay. Every telephone operator is provided with a list of the Vigilantes in every town of the county, together with their business and residence telephone numbers. Just as soon as news comes that a burglary or robbery has occurred, the operator calls each Vigilante in her own town and also passes the word along to the operators in surrounding towns, who, likewise, notify the Vigilantes in their towns. Telephone operators have, on many occasions proven themselves heroines in connection with these bank robberies. The latest such heroine is Mrs. Joseph Hubbell, night telephone operator at Dows, Ia., who recently succeeded indirectly in notifying the outside world that a gang of bandits was terrorizing the village. While the bandits were battering away at the door of the town exchange with a crowbar, Mrs. Hubbell succeeded in plugging in on the telephone of the exchange manager, A. W. Anderson, but before she could get the call through the robbers were in the building and had bound and gagged her. Meanwhile, Anderson, unable to get any response to the ringing of his telephone bell, and realizing that something was wrong, rounded up two linemen who accompanied him to the outskirts of the town where they plugged in on a long distance line and notified surrounding towns that bandits had control of the village. As a result of their efforts two suspects were later arrested. California soon, according to telegraphic advises received by State Commander Allen B. Bixby, of the California Department of the World War veterans' organization.

Citrus Grower Sells Grove Here J. W.

As a result of their efforts two suspects were later arrested. Legion Notes Twenty thousand ex-servicemen have applied to the Veterans' Welfare Board of the state for farm and home loans. State Adjutant James K. Fisk of the Legion made known these facts today following a conference with George Stout, secretary of the board, relative to the campaign for the passage of the $20,000,006 bond act which is to go on the November ballot this year to provide funds for a continuation of the work of the Veterans' Welfare Board. "The new act under which all of the money advanced by the taxpayers is paid back with interest will provide homes and farms for more than 5000 veterans," State Adjutant Fisk states. "Twenty-five hundred veterans have already been provided for under the ten million dollar act passed by an overwhelming vote in 1922 but this fund is practically exhausted at present," Fisk declares. In outlining the work of the veterans' states: welfare board, State Adjutant Fisk "During the month of January, just past, $420,000 worth of property was acquired. The records of the board show that less than 5 per cent of the approximate 2200 veteran property purchasers have ever been delinquent in their contract payments. As a result of this legislation, over 3000 acres of land are under cultivation by California veterans. This acreage is divided into approximately 175 farms, located in the various farming communities of the state." Ligon Briggs Ard, lieutenant-commander in the U.S. Naval Reserves and president of the Officers Naval Reserve Association of California, has been named California's representative on the American Legion's National Naval Affairs Committee. He is a graduate of Annapolis. John R. McQuigg, national commander of the American Legion, is to visit helm, to which he expects to continue to devote his attention, it is said.
