IN THE DAYS OF Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Year Ago. These Files Contain the only Authentic Records of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange County. 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK AUGUST 24, 1878 LAYING THE CORNER STONE OF THE NEW SCHOOL HOUSE About 9 o'clock on Monday morning strange faces appear in great numbers on the streets of Anaheim, Santa Ana, Westminster and other surrounding villages were well represented and even San Juan Capistrano, thirty miles away, contributed quite a delegation. The excursion train arrived about 11 o'clock with seventy passengers, who were welcomed by a host of our citizens and the Anaheim Brass band. The excursionists were conveyed to town by stages and private conveyances, and at the hotels ample accommodations awaited them. At a little after 2 o'clock the procession left the Masonic Hall and passed to Center street, along Center to Lemon, along Lemon to First North, along First North to the school lot. First came the Anaheim Fire company, Orpheus Lodge and Anaheim I. O. O. F. and Orion encampment followed in their brilliant regalia. The pupils in the Anaheim Grammar schools came next, the girls being all dressed in white and wore gaily colored ribbons and sashes. The Blue Lodge of Masons came next, then the Grand Lodge, the Anaheim band, the school trustees, the town trustees, the Grand Master and Wardens. Grand Marshal W. M. McFadden called the meeting to order and the ceremonies of laying the corner stone were conducted under the direction of Grand Master Theo. Reiser. The Grand Secretary W. W. Robinson read a list of articles which were deposited in the corner stone, among which were copies of the Anaheim Gazette and lists of members and officers of the to First North, along First North to the school lot.

Robinson read a list of articles which were deposited in the corner stone, among which were copies of the Anaheim Gazette and lists of members and officers of the Grand Lodge F. and A. M. for 1878, of children attending the public schools, of trustees of Anaheim Water Company, members of Magnolia Club, members of Anaheim band, copies of bonds of Anaheim school district, deeds to Los Angeles Vineyard association, business directory of Anaheim, five-cent postal card of 1872, square and compass. Grand Treasurer then placed the casket in the cavity of the corner stone and the ceremonies were completed. Prof. J. M. Guinn, principal of the Anaheim public schools, then delivered an address. A. R. Meserve of Pomona then read an elaborate address, which was followed by a benediction by the Grand Chaplain. The procession then re-formed and marched to the hall where a magnificent banquet was served. At 6 o'clock the excursionists returned to Los Angeles well pleased with the hospitality which had been showered upon them. The lot upon which the school house is being constructed is two acres in extent. It cost $1,500, which was paid by a tax of $3,000 which was voted in the month of June, 1876. The money remaining in the treasury will be used to buy school furniture. The building will be a frame structure. Two stories high, 62 x 72 feet. The style may be termed purely American. The contract for its erection was awarded to a Los Angeles firm for $9,100. The school trustees now in office are Messrs. Theo. Rimpau, Henry Kroeger and F. W. Athearn. Mr. H. Cohen of the firm of Cohen & Willard, left for San Francisco on the excursion train yesterday. He will make heavy purchases in San Francisco and our readers will be duly apprised of the arrival of the new stock. A very quiet wedding took place on Sunday last near Orange when Mr. Charles Bush and Miss Abbie Yarnell, both of that thriving village, were united in the holy bonds of matrimony. Vicente Valdez, the Indian who killed Patrick Dillon in Anaheim some weeks ago, has been sent to the state prison for life, he having pleaded guilty to murder in the first degree. The wee folks of Anaheim have got rid of a great bugaboo. Vicente was to them a great terror. The mare "Beautiful Bells" owned by L. J. Rose of this county, won the $1,000 race at Sacramento on Friday. Time, 2:29½, 2:31½, 2:32. The members of the Anaheim Fire company look well in their new and handsome uniforms. They consist of helmet, belt and shirt. The photographic parlors are now an art gallery in miniature and are well worth visiting. Some very finely executed pictures of our citizens adorn the walls, and the faithfulness of the "counterfeit presentments" is very striking. Among those we noticed the other day were large pictures of Mr. and Mrs. R. W. Scott, Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Beebe, Mr. John Fischer, Mr. Frank Ey, Mr. E. Comp.

Sweetzer, who has a stock ranch about 60 miles below Tucson and 20 miles from Sonora. The letter had been opened by robbers who are now plying their vocation in the territory with vigor. The letter contained nothing of value to the highwaymen. Mr. C. C. Angle had a shotgun stolen from his house on Monday. The usual services will be held in the Episcopal church tomorrow morning at 11 o'clock. Rev. A. G. L. Trew, pastor. We acknowledge a call from Mr. P. A. Clark and H. S. Knapp of Silverado. These gentlemen predict that within a year Silverado will have telegraphic connection with the outside world, and have a Gazette of its own to chronicle the local news. So mote it be. The residence of Mr. White in San Gabriel was burned on Thursday. Loss $2,000; no insurance. Mr. Fred Rehm told us the other day that he had been very successful in raising peas on his farm near Anaheim. He raised 900 pounds to the acre and a ready market was found at 3 cents per pound. The crop needs little if any artificial irrigation. It would be a fine thing for this county if the area devoted to barley is lessened and more attention paid to other crops. The Thespian Club is now rehearsing for an entertainment which they propose to give in the early part of next month. Mr. Victor Montgomery returned on Sunday last from a visit to the San Juan Hot Springs. DAYS OF LONG AGO Issued Half a Century and a Quarter of a Century Only Authentic History in Print of the Daily Doings and Orange County in the Days of the Pioneers. 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK AUGUST 20, 1903 The Anaheim Landing Mining and Development company has re-elected L. Schorn as president; Eugene Johnson, secretary; Ed. Kraemer, vice-president; F. A. Korn, treasurer. The company has extensive holdings at Anaheim Landing, which will be improved at an early date. A well has been put down to a depth of about 400 feet, which is now producing enough gas to supply a good-sized town for both lighting and cooking purposes. The next well will be drilled with the intention of striking oil, as the indications are said to be first class. As soon as the second well is completed the gas well will be capped and arrangements made to supply Anaheim Landing summer residents with gas for lighting and cooking. Surveyors for the proposed electric line between Santa Ana and Long Beach via the Landing, have been at work again the past week, and just as soon as it is known the company will build the line, thousands of dollars will be expended in improving this mining company's property. Company E returned on Saturday from the encampment at Coronado Beach. Lieut. Zeus states that a more instructive encampment was never held by the Seventh. Attendance was large and conduct orderly. Credit is reflected upon Col. Berry and his staff for the excellence of the encampment. A sham battle on North Beach was one of the features.

The IMPORTANT point is that this exceptional speed is made practical by Dodge ruggedness of chassis and body construction.
