The board of trustees of the Anaheim school district held a meeting at Justice Athearn's office on Monday, to take action in accordance with the law recently enacted authorizing them to issue the bonds of the school district for the purpose of building a schoolhouse. The clerk was authorized to advertise for proposals to purchase the bonds and also for plans for the new schoolhouse. All possible means will be used to hasten the building, and before many months we shall be the possessors of a schoolhouse second to none in the county.
Some unknown gentleman entered the residence of Richard Heimann on Monday evening, while the family was at supper, and appropriated to himself the blankets from off the bed. The family suffered somewhat from cold during the night, but they are consoled with the belief that the thief at some future time will suffer more from the heat, unless possibly Bob Ingersoll's theories prove true, and it is to be hoped that in this case at least they will not.
Mr. John Fischer is a candidate for the office of town assessor. He has plenty of time to attend to the duties of the office, is thoroughly conversant with its requirements, perfectly capable of intelligently filling the office, and in his election the town would secure an impartial officer.
It is said that in the orange orchards in the northern part of the county a destructive red bug has made its appearance. It exercises its destructive propensities on the leaves, which it eats away.

Major Bell, of Los Angeles, attorney for the claimants, has received an order of survey from the United States surveyor general for the Rancho Potrero de la Mission de San Gabriel, that has enjoyed a Rip Van Winkle sleep for 25 years. It is said to embrace some of the finest lands in El Monte.

The Miles Brothers' mill is busy grinding gypsum for the Westminster farmers. We saw on Wednesday a lot brought in by Mr. Daniel Griswold. It was obtained from a mine in Santa Ana canyon, owned and worked by Messrs. Griswold, Anderso and others. A large quantity will be used for the redemption of alkali lands this season.
The work of setting out trees and irrigating the school lot was finished on Thursday. In a very few years the Anaheim school lot will be one of the most beautiful parks in the county.

The presbytery of Los Angeles met in Westminster last Thursday evening. Rev. J. Phelps of Santa Barbara preached the opening sermon. Rev. J. Marquis was chosen commissioner to the general assembly, which meets in Pittsburg, Pa., May 16. All of the meetings were interesting and well attended. We have never seen the hall fuller and the atmosphere in it closer than on Sunday morning. There was no room for more, and many went away being unable to get in. It fully demonstrates that we need a church building.
The old well on Los Angeles street is now being filled up, and the limbs of the passers are safe, thanks to our town officers.
We received the following telegram on Thursday afternoon:
Santa Ana, April 11.—Captain Pierce and four men of the steamer Newport were drowned last night in attempting to come over the bar in an open boat.—Burtnett.
Upon making further inquiry, we learned that the unfortunate men were attempting to pass from the steamer to the lighter in a small boat, hauling the boat by means of a rope attached from the steamer to the lighter. The waves were running high on the bar and one of them striking the boat capsized it, throwing the men into the water. They were drowned before assistance could reach them. Captain Pierce leaves a wife and five children in San Francisco. The names of the men we were unable to learn.

THURSDAY, APRIL 9, 1903
A party of ten Southern Pacific surveyors arrived in town on Tuesday evening and registered at the Commercial. The party is in charge of F. D. Brown, and it is said will make headquarters here for three weeks. Mr. Brown stated yesterday that his first work will be the running of a line from Benedict station to Smeltzer, a distance of about seven miles. This road will tap the celery belt and the shipments of that vegetable, which amount to some 1500 cars annually, will go east over that line, instead of by way of Santa Ana.
A meeting of citizens was held on Monday afternoon in Hatfield & Stock's real estate office for the purpose of taking steps to prevent, if possible, the removal of the postoffice from its present location to the proposed new site on the corner of Center and Lemon streets. Business men whose places are near the present location of the office were in attendance, and a committee consisting of L. E. Miller, W. P. Turner, and J. S. Hatfield was appointed to circulate a petition protesting against its removal. The report is current, however, that the postal authorities have about decided to make the change and that plans are now being perfected for a two-story brick structure on the old Higgins corner, where the office will be located.
At Old Newport, on Thursday, over 3000 gophers were killed by a number of men and boys. An old alfalfa patch of 90 acres has long been a refuge for these varmints. The land was flooded by the overflow of the Santa Ana river and the gophers forced out of their holes. The Newport schools were dismissed and the pupils, armed with clubs, dispatched the animals as fast as they appeared. One boy is said to have killed more than five hundred.
