IN THE DAYS OF Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century 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, AUGUST 26, 1876 The Anaheim Literary Society met at the hall in the Bank building on Monday evening. Messrs. D. E. Miles and Edward Lyon were elected members of the society. A committee consisting of Messrs. Grimshaw Mielenz and Payne were elected as judges of the debate of the evening. Resolved, "That free trade is more conducive to the prosperity of the country than a protective tariff." The committee gave their decision in favor of the affirmative. The question selected for the next debate was: Resolved, That the right of suffrage should be accorded to all women of legal age." Messrs. E. F. Cahill, A. G. Beebe and J. Viles were chosen to represent the affirmative, and Messrs. F. W. Athearn, Fred Rimpau, A. P. Benton and H. Cohn to represent the negative. Messrs. C. C. Haskell, Victor Montgomery and F. M. Cahill were selected for declamations. A bellicose gentleman was amusing himself by making night hideous with his revelry yesterday morning, when the trusty Bohn appeared on the scene and assisted by Charlie Hille and F. Conrad, conveyed him to the calaboose, there to spend the balance of the time prior to interviewing Judge Bailey, with John Eagan, who had previously engaged apartments at the same place.

On the way to quarters the unknown severely bit Conrad's finger. The gentleman was liberally assessed by the judge yesterday afternoon. We learn that Officer Titchenal has notified the storekeepers and saloon men of Santa Ana that all places of business must be closed on Sundays. The measure meets with much opposition, and we understand that tomorrow an opportunity will be given the officer to make an arrest for the purpose of testing the legality of the question. An Indian was arrested for disturbing the peace of the house of Mr. Boldt on Tuesday night. He naively remarked that he wished to borrow some matches to see his way home, he living near the Korn place. His case will be attended to on Monday. We had a call yesterday from B. F. Siebert, whose arrival we noted last week. Mr. Siebert is cashier of the Bank of Anaheim, and informs us that that institution will probably be open by September 1.

The troops consist of Captain Bernard's company G, First Cavalry, with Lieut. T. K. Ward, Dr. Hoffman, fifty-two men and three six-mule teams. The men are all in good health, and the horses in fine condition. Ex-Governor Woods is reported to have said that the prettiest girl he saw in all Southern California was at Anaheim.

After the meeting the members adjourned to the Planters hotel, where a very fine lunch was spread, to which they did ample justice. The inspectors left this morning for San Francisco. The instruments of torture for the Anaheim brass band arrived yesterday morning and were on exhibition at the store of Cahen & Willard.

John Rimpau, who has been enjoying the balmy climate of this section for some weeks past, returned last evening to his home in Yuma. John savs Yuma is not such a warm place, and that the story of the soldier who died and went to hell and sent back to Yuma for his blankets is not true. W. B. Pechstein came in from Buena Park on Tuesday for a short visit with his friends hereabout.
