IN THE DAYS OF Extracts. From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Ago. These Files Contain the Only Authentic H of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange Coun 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK SATURDAY, JULY 14, 1877 The Grand Musical Cantata was a decided success, and any stranger must have been convinced that if he wanted to settle in a locality where beauty was plentiful, Anaheim was just the place. The scenic arrangements were very good, and the scene on the stage quite captivating. When all was so excellent, it is perhaps invidious to draw comparisons, but decidedly the hits of the evening were made by Miss Lucretia Richards, Miss Minnie Calisher, Miss Gussie Hermann and the chorus of heather bells. The juvenile ladies were more self-possessed than their seniors, and amply proved the nerve of young America to be of good quality. Professor and Mrs. Yarndley deserve great credit for their skill and enterprise, and we hope, judging from the audience, that the balance in the exchequer will be satisfactory. In fact, we hope the givers of the entertainment will be as well pleased as were the audience. The board of trustees of the town of Anaheim met at the town hall yesterday. The report of the marshal was read and approved, and a warrant drawn for his salary. There were no receipts or disbursements during the month. The committee of consultation on ditch crossings asked for further time to confer with the water company. The bond of Justice Alex Bailey was read and ordered filed. The bills of clerks and judges of election for $5 each were laid upon the table. The board of trustees of the town of Anaheim met at the town hall yesterday.

Mr. Smith will be under many obligations to the gentleman who borrowed his horse Friday night if he will return him, as he is the last of twenty-five head which have been borrowed in the same manner. If the gentleman needed only the rope, and the horse followed it, the animal will come home if unhitched. Mr. Smith is not particular about the rope, and is willing to donate it to any charitable purpose and will even give it to be used on the neck of his unknown friend; so if the horse is returned, no awkward questions will be asked. The boys were out on Thursday evening to serenade Mr. and Mrs. Ed Miles. This practice of beating old tin pans and coal oil cans at every wedding which takes place is not only annoying, but is a mean, dirty practice and one of which every good boy should be asliamed. A fan was found at Tivoli Gardens on Wednesday. The owner can have it by applying to Mr. J. Doblin, at the store of G. and D. G. Plato, corner of Los Angeles and Center. The Gen. Tom Thumb troupe performed to a crowded house last night. Tom Thumb, in his miniature carriage, passed through the principal streets of the town yesterday. The juveniles were greatly interested, and quite a number followed the equipage through-the entire route. The troupe left for Los Angeles this morning. A purse of money and some valuable jewelry was stolen from the residence of Mr. Keller last week. The thief has not yet been discovered. Mr. Charles A. Gardner, the talented editor of the St. Helena Star, an old resident of Anaheim and former proprietor of the Anaheim Gazette, is a candidate for assemblyman from Napa county. Mr. Gardner is an able and worthy gentleman, and has our best wishes for his success. Don Vicente Yorba brought to town yesterday the skin of a wether having a fourteen months' growth of wool thereon. The wool was of fine quality and remarkably long staple. Mr. James D. Ott is a candidate for constable of San Joaquin township. If the people of Anaheim did the voting in that township, James would have an overwhelming majority. Our worthy townsman, Mr. Robert W. Scott, is a candidate for the assembly, subject to the decision of the Democratic convention. The well-known Reipe brothers have opened the Star restaurant, and all wanting a good meal should give them a call. Mr. A. S. Addis and his employes, Messrs. Coman and Leforty, who were arrested on a charge of arson in Los Angeles... Mr. James D. Ott is a candidate for constable of San Joaquin township.

The well-known Reipe brothers have opened the Star restaurant, and all wanting a good meal should give them a call. Mr. A. S. Addis and his employes, Messrs. Coman and Lefferty, who were arrested on a charge of arson in Los Angeles, were honorably discharged on Saturday. For several days men have been at work undermining the butcher shop of Messrs. Look and Leonard, in search of something which has made a great stench. That something was discovered to be the remains of an old tom cat, which has escaped and gone under the house, only to meet with a more terrible and lingering death. The Chinamen at Sin Si Wan hotel were holding a musical entertainment yesterday afternoon. It might have been a Chinese cantata, but it sounded more like the senseless cackling of geese. The new brick building in process of erection on the corner of Los Angeles and First North streets is fast assuming shape and proportions, and soon one more fireproof store will be in use. Anaheim Landing is becoming the favorite watering place of this vicinity. A large number of visitors are now camped there, enjoying the cool and healthful sea breezes. The following officers of Anaheim lodge No. 199, I. O. O. F., were installed Tuesday by District Deputy Grand Master Champlin: A. G. Brown, N. G.; J. H. Gooch, V. G.; H. S. Austin, R. S.; H. A. Evans, P. S.; P. C. McKinnie, treasurer; A. Bantlitz, W.; E. W. Champlin, Con.; S. L. Chilson, O. G.; R. Bohn, I. G. Shipments from the depot this week included: Five kegs beer, one box butter, one car brea, 70 sacks rye, four boxes raisins, one jar butter, 11 sacks beans, two sacks mustard seed, 166 sacks corn, six kegs beer, one sack beeswax, 21 dry hides, 22 dry pelts, 17 pipes and 20 kegs wine, four barrels wine, one box nuts, two cars lambs, two sewing machines, three cases powder. The fire company attempted to hold a general meeting last evening, but as the president and vice-president and secretary were absent, it was given up in disgust.

Royer of Orange and Walnut Crop Looms Big This Season The setting of walnuts in Orange county is the heaviest this year since 1923, and the inroads of codling moth, partly responsible for last year's light crop, seem to have been appreciably reduced, according to Deputy County Horticultural Commissioner W. H. Wright. Unless there is a large hatching of this moth in July, he says, the greatest danger to the crop lies in sunburn during the warm days of July and August. Spraying for codling moth last year and early treatment this year, Mr. Wright believes, account in part for the heavy crop and luxurant foliage on the trees. More groves have been treated for aphis than for the moth this year. Dusting for aphis and spraying for codling moth has been recommended by the horticultural commissioner's office. There are approximately 14,000 acres of bearing walnuts in this county which is an increase of almost 1000 acres over that of 1926. The crop of Orange county is estimated now at about 8000 tons, while last year it amounted to a little over 2000 tons. In 1923 the yield was over 8500 tons, according to Mr. Wright. Sizes are good and satisfactory prices are expected this season, in view of the fact that there was little surplus carried over from last year. ALASKAN PICNIC All former residents of Alaska and the Yukon territory now residing in Southern California are to meet for a big picnic to be held Sunday, July 17, at noon, at Bixby park, Long Beach. If you have ever lived in Alaska or the Yukon, meet your old friends again. You will be surprised to see those whom you had never dreamed were here. Bring your lunch, coffee can be purchased at the picnic grounds. Well-known Alaskan speakers will address the gathering. From Ketchikan to Nome, Dawson to Fairbanks, and all points north, they will be there. Registers will be available。 Deputy District Grand Master D. F. Royer of Orange and his grand officers installed the following newly-elected officers of Anaheim lodge, I. O. O. F., on Tuesday evening; Ed Zeus, N. G.; Frank Gates, Secretary; Herman Stern, treasurer; R. Melrose, R. S. N. G.; E. W. Champlin, L. S. N. G.; William Hill, W.; H. A. McWilliams, conductor; R. Dunn, inside guard; Oliver Hill, outside guard; Max Boege, R. S. S.; Charles Rogers, L. S. S. Visiting brethren were present from Fullerton, Orange, Santa Ana and Westminster. After the installation all hands repaired to Jones' cafe, where a collation was enjoyed. Harris and Falkenstein, the popular merchants, have a 60-piece dinner set to be given free to the lucky holder of a coupon at a drawing to be held on August 5. Every purchaser of a dollar's worth of goods gets a coupon, and the lucky number will be determined at the drawing. Fayette Lewis has received a position as head lemonade dispenser in the grandstand at the Los Angeles ball grounds—five a glass. He informs us Los Angeles is playing in hard luck—hear him! hear him!—but that it will yet get within speaking distance of the pennant. Don't you think it, boy! Los Angeles will soon be tail-enders, and then we expect to hear of Morley's being stoned to death. Frank Porter was over from his walnut plantation on Orangethorpe avenue a day or two ago, talking a little politics with the boys. Frank has his eye on his party's nomination for supervisor, and the boys say he has the inside track for it. Gus Hansen was in town a day or two ago from his ranch on Orangethorpe. He has set 110 acres to beets, from the most of which he will harvest a great crop. Charles Fay left yesterday for Missouri, where he will temporarily reside. Charley is one of our best citizens, and we hope he will have an abundance of luck in his new home. Mrs. John Rimpau, who has been the guest of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Everhardy, has returned to her home in Yuma. Her little daughter remains with her grandparents. County Treasurer Joplin has been advised by the state treasurer that the state school fund apportionment for Orange county amounts to $18,525.70. Neill E. Bailey, who for some time past has occupied a position as city ticket agent for the Southern Pacific at its main office in Los Angeles, has resigned and goes to Mexico to take a position as assistant superintendent of the Cananea railroad. Arnold Dickel has a job as copyist with the Equitable Life Insurance Company in Los Angeles. He rides downtown to the office every morning in Uncle Jones' automobile, and in the afternoon takes in the ball game, but now that his two boys have told him what it's like, he is taking an interest in the game, and...

Arnold Dickel has a job as copyist with the Equitable Life Insurance Company in Los Angeles. He rides downtown to the office every morning in Uncle Jones' automobile, and in the afternoon takes in the ball game, but now that his two boys have told him what it's like, he is taking an interest in the game, and contemplates a trip to Los Angeles especially to see Householder sit down in center field. Mrs. Schmidt of Berkeley is the guest of the family of J. B. Rae and will remain for a visit of a week or two. Billy Hale, candidate for the Republican nomination for supervisor, was in town the other day, shaking hands with friends, treating to cigars and talking a bit of politics. District Attorney A. Y. Williams was in town on Monday, looking over the political situation, which he said tickled him the more he looked at it. Miss Beulah Kirby gave a lawn party at her parents' home in Peralta the other day in honor of friends from Los Angeles, Santa Ana and this city. Gage Republican clubs are the order of the day in this end of the county. Yorba Republicans are forming one, and expect to have their first blow-out next Saturday evening, when speeches will be made by Al Harlin, Judge Marquez and others. Anaheim Republicans will have a meeting next week for the formation of a Gage Club, when an effort will be made to secure the attendance of the governor, who is living on his ranch at Downey. Advices from Los Angeles are to the effect that the governor will sweep the county at next month's primary. His many friends in this county will see to it that a solid delegation is selected for him at the county convention. Mrs. Dickel went to Los Angeles on Sunday to spend a few days with her sister, Mrs. Bullard. Mrs. Crist and little son, Earl, have gone to San Diego for an outing of several weeks. Sheriff Lacey was in town on Monday, looking over the political situation. LUMBER MEASURED WITH THE GOLDEN RULE We are ready to meet your building needs!

It is certainly a noble medicine and never fails of its purpose. I like to recommend it."
