IN THE DAYS OF I 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 SEPTEMBER 30, 1876 We were favored with a call yesterday from Rev. J. A. Van Anda, who is on his way to Westminster for the purpose of organizing a Methodist Episcopal church at that place. He has just arrived from Montana with the intention of locating with us. He will preach at Westminster on Friday and will be assisted by Rev. A. E. Hough, presiding elder. Rev. Mr. Bovard of Orange will preach at Anaheim next Sunday afternoon, at 2:30 o'clock. An effort will be made to organize a Methodist church in this place. The Literary Society was completely deserted on Monday evening. The eloquence of our amateur debaters had no power to draw the crowd from the seductions of the Japanese tumblers and the painted clown of the 10 allied shows. The circus train on the trip here from Livermore made over fifty miles per hour on many portions of the road. The great international and 10 allied shows of Cooper, Bailey & Company gave a great performance here on Monday, when the whole population turned out to see their monster menagerie of rare wild animals, including the herd of elephants, the tallest giraffe in the world, the hippopotamus, etc. The grand street parade, with the genuine steam piano, the gorgeous temple of June, the three bands and the 60 glittering chariots and tableau Joseph Hell William Schweger bears a colored city, a stately edifice the building and city during her some time view the rathskeller August Bay Angeles, where a house.

The great international and 10 allied shows of Cooper, Bailey & Company gave a great performance here on Monday, when the whole population turned out to see their monster menagerie of rare wild animals, including the herd of elephants, the tallest giraffe in the world, the hippopotamus, etc. The grand street parade, with the genuine steam piano, the gorgeous temple of June, the three bands and the 60 glittering chariots and tableau cars. The amphitheatre, with seats for 10,000 spectators (1500 reserved cushioned opera chairs) seemed to be filled, and everybody enjoyed the bareback riders, the acrobats, the jugglers, the 10 clowns, and the performing animals. The troupe left at 1 o'clock in the morning for San Bernardino. They have their own cars, said to number 43. The schooner Phil Sheridan, now discharging lumber at Anaheim Landing, will load with about 200 tons of corn. D. J. Sorenson leaves for San Francisco this morning on a visit. He-takes with him specimens of fruit dried at the Alden works of Heiman & Sorensen. We hope he may be successful in establishing a big trade. Mr. Pumphrey, the gentleman who had the honor and the misfortune to fall out of the third story of the Pico House, a couple of years ago, is the conductor of the train which brought the circus to Anaheim. Dr. Gulick took out five contiguous teeth from the tongue and groove machine and grist mill of our friend A. Guy Smith yesterday. He feels better, but does not see anything to laugh at. The St. Helena Star, Charley Garner's paper, has entered upon its third volume, and we tender him the customary congratulations. A very nice job of painting has been done on the Episcopal church by the contractor, J. C. Hill. It is now completed, with the exception of the doors, which have to be grained. The Santa Ana Republicans were addressed last night by Hon. J. J. Maxwell. General Sherman arrived in Los Angeles yesterday afternoon.

It was pronounced the best ever seen in this section. A meeting of farmers was held at the new Grange hall, at the depot yesterday. The attendance was not very large from the outside districts. The new hall was dedicated for the use of the Grange. A private Grange meeting was held, and, we are informed, there was quite an animated discussion upon subjects interesting to the farmers. There was no public meeting or speaking. Negotiations are in progress to establish a store on the first floor of the building, but nothing definite has yet been agreed upon. General Albert Pike, who arrived in Los Angeles yesterday, is the highest Mason in the United States.

Schwenckert writes that he spent some time viewing the sights about the Rathhaus, as well as the rathskeller underneath.

Rogers is taking up Christian Science for rheumatism. His initial experience with this method of curing disease was obtained a year and a half ago, when, on the advice of an eastern friend, he adopted that means of curing his ailment. He was relieved entirely, and not until a few weeks ago did it reappear. Now he is after it again with Christian Science, and says he has no doubt of being ultimately entirely cured.
