IN THE DAYS OF Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Cent Ago. These Files Contain the Only Authentic History of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange County. (Copyright Applied for) 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK SATURDAY, JUNE 10, 1876 The Anaheim brass band was organized on Friday evening. The members are Messrs. Hartung, Willard, Rimpau and Dollin. Messrs. Goodman, Schubert and Viles started for the hot springs near San Juan Capistrano yesterday morning. They took with them several packages of liquid, fearing perhaps that the water of the springs might not be adapted to their delicate constitutions. The board of supervisors met yesterday and took up road and school district business. The Centralia school district, near Anaheim, was organized. A great many petitions were sent in for the appointment to the vacant auditorship. They will be acted upon at this session of the board. It is with regret that we chronicle the death of County Auditor Charles W. Gould. We knew him intimately and his many fine qualities endeared him to us, as in fact they did to all with whom he came in contact. He was buried from his home in Los Angeles on Sunday afternoon. Mr. Bittner returned from the coal mines in Santiago canyon Saturday evening. The account he gives of the mines is not very flattering. Rev. W. S. Neales and wife will leave by steamer an route to Lakeport, Lake county, tomorrow, where they propose to reside. for the appointment to the vacant auditorship. They will be acted upon at this session of the board. It is with regret that we chronicle the death of County Auditor Charles W. Gould.

Mr. Bittner returned from the coal mines in Santiago canyon Saturday evening. The account he gives of the mines is not very flattering. Rev. W. S. Neales and wife will leave by steamer en route to Lakeport, Lake county, tomorrow, where they propose to reside in the future. The departure of these most estimable people is a great loss to the community. The plethoric condition of the Episcopal church building fund is largely due to the personal exertions of Mr. Neales, and it is a matter of great regret that his stay among us cannot be prolonged until the completion of the edifice which his efforts helped to rear. The Episcopal church building committee met in Mr. Olden's office yesterday afternoon. The following contractors submitted proposals: P. C. McKinnie, D. G. Sorenson, D. K. Williams, L. A. Cord, J. Evans, Snow & Stoll, and J. C. Smith. Mr. McKinnie proved to be the lowest bidder, and the contract was awarded to him. Work on the building will be commenced immediately. Mrs. Alvarado and Miss Carrillo arrived on the steamer yesterday from San Diego. Among the arrivals last night by train were Don Chico Forster of Santa Margarita and Don George Kimball of Santa Maria. The marriage of J. Fred Dalton to Miss Maude A. Sullivan, at Good Templars' hall, last evening, was witnessed by quite a multitude of the friends of the bride and groom. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Mitchell, after the adjournment of the regular meeting of the lodge, so that invited guests who were non-members could be present. The lodges of Santa Ana and Orange were at the hall in full force. The Gazette extends congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Dalton and wishes them a happy and prosperous career. The man who bought the first lot in Santa Monica was the first to occupy the new jail. His name is Larnoyeski and he is in quod for beating his wife. Dr. Hardin has put up an Aldrich windmill. This mill seems to be growing into public favor. Assessor Austin is the agent. Fred Hartung has received an order from Washington Territory for 1000 gallons of port wine. Gospel Swamp is a famous place for blackberries. The crop this year is said to be unusually large. Suit was commenced yesterday in Justice Clark's court by N. H. Mitchell vs. Dr. J. P. Ellis of San Fernando to recover the sum of $103. Mrs. Dr. Higgins is in San Francisco, attending a course of lectures in the medical department of the university. Charles J. Shepard and Miss Francesca Wolfskill of Los Angeles were married in San Francisco a few days ago. Gospel Swamp is a famous place for blackberries. The crop this year is said to be unusually large.

Shepard and Miss Francesca Wolfskill of Los Angeles were married in San Francisco a few days ago. Jack Wolf assumes control of the Anaheim hotel on Monday—sure pop. Officer Pullen went out last night after a horse thief. He was on hand this morning with his prisoner, and the capture was a complete success—except that the prisoner turned out to be the wrong man. The Idaho Bakery man now makes daily trips to Santa Ana and Orange to supply the denizens of those places with bread, etc. His new wagon, built by Crowther and painted by Gooch, is a nice outfit and does credit to the workmen. Manager Wood of the Los Angeles opera house is negotiating with Mr. Kroeger for the use of his hall one night each week. If a satisfactory arrangement can be entered into, he proposes to bring his troupe to Anaheim every Friday night. The Planters hotel is to be ornamented with skylights. Mr. Olden will occupy one of the front rooms in the second story of the new bank building. The building will be completed ere long. Fred W. Athearn, the Addisonian local editor of The Gazette, has gone to partake of the waters (?) of the hot springs of San Juan Capistrano. The friends of Mrs. Alexander Henry will be glad to know that she is recovering from her recent severe illness. A preliminary meeting was held at Kroeger's hall on Saturday evening for the purpose of establishing a literary and debating club in Anaheim. After some discussion a committee was appointed to prepare a constitution and by-laws and report on Thursday evening at 7:30 o'clock. We trust there will be a good attendance. S OF LONG AGO Issued Half a Century and a Quarter of a Century Authentic History in Print of the Daily Doings Orange County in the Days of the Pioneers. 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK THURSDAY, JUNE 13, 1901 Military boys are preparing to leave on Friday afternoon for the state encampment at Santa Cruz.

All members are expected to attend the encampment: Capt. J. F. Ahlborn, First Lieutenant C. J. Fay, Second Lieutenant T. B. Johnson, First Sergeant Herman Stern, Quartermaster Sergeant F. S. Gates, Sergeant D. Bush, Sergeant Ed Zeus, Sergeant C. Pressel, Corporal P. W. Ahlborn, Corporal F. Yungbluth, Corporal L. Kroeger, Corporal P. Turk, Musician C. Woelke, Privates E. H.

Cost of Work Horses On California Farms California farmers continue to rely upon horses and mules as a source of motive power; although increasing use of tractors and trucks is tending to replace horsepower with mechanical power, and the number of horses and mules on California farms has dropped from 456,826 in 1920 to 379,000 in 1925. This statement is made by R. L. Adams, professor of farm management in the college of agriculture, University of California, in a recent bulletin issued by the college on "Cost of Work Horses in California." This bulletin is No. 401, and may be obtained free by writing the farm advisor, 110-Hall of Records, Santa Ana. "Notwithstanding the gradual reduction in numbers of horses and mules, the annual cost of horse and mule power reaches a high figure," says Professor Adams. "Considerable quantities of data have been collected by the division of farm management which appear to be worthy of recording for use by farm managers and agricultural economists who are concerned with plans of farm organization, details of farm administration and costs of production studies. A study of the cost of keeping 812 work horses on 187 California farms indicated that under the conditions existing at the time, 1922, the average cost per animal amounted to $172.19. The average cost of maintaining horses on orchard and vineyard farms was found to be higher than on dairy and field crop farms, being $211.14 for the former group and $163.58 for the latter group. Of the various items making up the cost of maintaining work horses, feed and chores are the two largest single costs. These amounted to $112.32 or 68.9 per cent, for the dairy and field crop group, $162.16, or 77 per cent, for the orchard and vineyard group. The majority of operators fed hay only, at an average rate of six tons per head per year. When grain was fed, the amount averaged 780 pounds, with a reduction of but one-tenth of a ton."

The encampment will continue two weeks. The ladies of the Turner Sisterhood will have an entertainment at Turner hall on Sunday evening, at which time a $60 silk flag will be presented to the Turn Verein, which leaves next week to attend the Kreis Turn Fest at San Diego. At this meeting Turners from all sections of the state will participate in athletic contests. The program for Sunday evening will open with a song by the singing section, followed by an address by C. Entenmann of Los Angeles, then a song by William Freise. Presentation of the flag to the Turners will be followed by a social hop. Four members of the active section of the Anaheim Turn Verein have entered the lists at San Diego, viz., John Haberfellner, Joseph Backs, Fritz Yungbluth and Frank Arnold. The Fraternal Brotherhood at their meeting on Friday evening elected the following officers to serve the ensuing year: F. G. Athearn, president; Mrs. H. A. McWilliams, vice-president; Fred C.

He will return to Anaheim for a further stay and may later return to Nogales, where he was associated with Ed Pellegrin in the jewelry business. Ad contracted asthma at Nogales and is home on a short trip in search of health. Carl Zeus is coming to be one of the finest painters in town. He improved each shining hour on Saturday by applying a coat of asphaltum to Hahn's barn. Herman Dickel and C. A. Stuhle drove over to Chino Monday, returning in the evening.

He states Orangethorpe will have an elaborate float in the Fourth of July parade. Mrs. Gerald Sandilands, who has been visiting her mother here for some weeks past, departed some days ago for Atlantic City, N. J., to join her husband. The executive committee in charge of the approaching celebration of the national holiday yesterday received word from Bishop George Montgomery of Los Angeles to the effect that he would be pleased to deliver the oration here on that day. To say that the committee and citizens of the county generally are overjoyed at his acceptance of the invitation is but to express it mildly. The bishop is easily the foremost orator in Southern California and has many warm personal friends here. That he has graciously consented to accept is cause for congratulation on all sides. Fourth of July committees reported excellent progress at the meeting on Friday evening. Don David Yorba and Judge Reginaldo Marquez were both present and agreed to take charge of the barbecue. They will have entire control of the purchase of the meat, its preparation for the feast and its serving, and the procuring of the side dishes. Two fat young beeves, six hogs, 40 sheep, and beeves heads by the score will furnish food for a crowd estimated at five thousand. Two thousand loaves of bread and all the toothsome side dishes found at well appointed barbecues will be provided, including a thousand mince pies. Wouldn't that make a Santa Ana man leave his happy home for Anaheim on that day? W. H. Toler was in town yesterday and reports everything is lovely in Orange.
