Blanken. Some splendid specimens of silver bearing rock was brought in from the Santiago mountains on Thursday. Frank Monahan will soon take charge of the Anaheim train. The legislature re-assembled in Sacramento on Thursday. The mercury got down to 30 degrees in Los Angeles on Monday. Ice, half an inch thick formed in many places. One of the most pleased and gratified-looking gentleman in town yesterday was Dr. Hardin. He had received an elegant and exceedingly appropriate present from a medical friend in Paris, and was, of course, greatly pleased and delighted. That he will put the present to good and effective use, there can be no doubt. P. H. Look, C. E. Leonard and Daniel Drowne now comprise the firm of P. H. Look & Company.

Farris, were hunting on Tuesday near Florence. They were standing together, Farris having his gun cocked and resting on the ground. Picking up the weapon hastily to get a shot at some passing ducks, it was discharged, the contents entering Angell's chest, ranging upward. The unfortunate man lived about and hour and a half and then expired. He fully exonerated Farris from all blame. Angell was a sterling young man, and a great favorite. He lived in Anaheim some years ago. The Black Star Coal Mining Company held their first meeting at the bank on Saturday last, and the following gentlemen were elected as officers: W. H. Spurgeon, president; B. F. Seibert, vice-president and treasurer; A. Witte, secretary and superintendent. Mr. J. B. Pierce has received the contract for hauling 215,000 feet of lumber from the depot to different points on the cajon ditch.

A very handsome chair was received at the depot the other night, marked for the "President of P. Davis & Brothers' Bank, Anaheim. Frank Lecouvreur has returned to Los Angeles from his bridal trip to Europe. A tramp stole some clothes from the rooms of the foreman of the Santa Anita rancho. He was pursued and overtaken. Having donned the stolen clothes and thrown away the old ones, his captors compelled him to disrobe, in which condition they left him. On the thirtieth of this month our Young Men's Social Club will give the fifth of their social parties at Kroeger's hall. They will meet with public favor, we are sure, if they continue in their present programme of having a monthly party as enjoyable as their last.

Lyman Culter, Crittenden, Both, Cumberland, Anderson, and John Edwards, with Mrs. Torrey as organist. Rev. J. A. Van Anda delivered the address of welcome. Mrs. Dr. A. J. Howe read a condensed report of how the settlement was founded and what has been accomplished, as shown by the annals of former years. The annals of 1877, which Dr. A. J. Howe then read are a record of all local events for the year and make, altogether, quite an accurate history of the place from its earliest settlement to date. An effort should be made to preserve them in pamphlet form. 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK THURSDAY, JANUARY 1, 1903 Judge Howard will have his courtroom in the city hall. Mrs. John W.

Mr. Kirby was in from Peralta on Saturday to attend a meeting of the orange growers' association. He informs us that reports recently circulated to the effect that he contemplated removal to Los Angeles are erroneous; for while his family has taken up their residence in that city, where his daughter, Miss Bertha, is attending school, he finds it impossible to leave the ranch, and he will therefore remain to give it attention. R. C. Archibald was in town from Buena Park yesterday. He states he is not an aspirant for the position of road overseer in his district, previous reports to that effect having been unfounded.

It is certainly a maltitude and never fails of its purpose. I like to recommend it. (Prune and edible will be sent upon request) And in the Eating of Life When age comes stepping on with bowels mutilated, mouth weak, constipation poor and blood filled, then the supper does its cell work in a night. Syrup Pepaia is so palatable, so soft in the stomach, works so easily, so gently, so well it allows us to accommodate its purpurea taste, pith or other distress. For bellowing, even mild faintness, hypothyroidism, asthma and angina, Syrup Pepaia is recommended every day and all at night. For a free trial bottle send name and address to Pepaia Syrup Company, Monticello, Illinois.
