The society adjourned to meet on Tuesday, October 22, at 7:30 p.m. Victor Montgomery, Secretary. Attention is directed to the advertisement of Mr. Hippolyte Cohen, who has just received a fine assortment of gent's clothing. It is seldom that one has the opportunity to select from such a fine stock as Mr. Cohen now has. G. A. Collins, of San Jacinto, found in the water trough from which he waters 2500 sheep the contents of two bottles of strychnine! The bottles were found buried in the sand close by. He is on the track of the murderous wretch who perpetrated the das tardly deed. Black birds lay dead all around the trough. We are told that members of the Magnolia Social club are assured of a large attendance at their ball on the evening of the 24th inst. The previous parties of this club have been marked by a rare and hearty enjoyment on the part of those present. The reception committee consists of Messrs. J. J. Hill, F. W. Athearn and D. Drowne. The floor managers are Henry Kuchel, Fred Hartung and H. Cohen. Addison Dyer will remove to Santa Ana to reside, having accepted a position as clerk in Spurgeon's store. Frank Humphreys, formerly of Santa Ana, has been engaged to act as clerk in the store of H. Cohen. P. W. Straw has resigned his position as justice of the peace of San Joaquin township. The Santa Ana Herald says that he is suffering from asthma and is compelled to remove to the mountains. Victor Montgomery was surprised yesterday morning to find in his postoffice box, directed to him, a roll of bread, neatly wrapped in tissue paper and tied around with a blue ribbon. No explanation accompanied the precious package, but Mr. Montgomery supposes it is from some ambitious young Miss who desires to compete for the $50 prize offered for the best biscuit at the Fair and that it was sent to him to be forwarded for exhibition. Before opening the package he was under the impression that it contained a sample of ore from Silverado. The Fair at the new pavilion in Los Angeles is, for a first attempt, a very creditable affair. Los Angeles city, of course, contributes the majority of the exhibits. The mercantile houses have availed themselves of the opportunity to advertise their wares by making handsome displays of their specialties. Santa Ana exhibits some corn, apples and peaches.. Gospel Swamp sends a big pumpkin, but it is eclipsed by one from Florence which weighs 218 pounds. Westminster exhibits apples of a very fine quality. Garden Grove sends a cheese from its new factory. Orange is represented by a fine lot of trees from the nursery of D. C. Havward. The samples of ore from Silverado attract a good deal of attention, and favorable mention is made of the coal from the Black Star mine. None of the local departments except, perhaps, Florence, Pasadena and Riverside, are at all interesting, or give the slightest hint of their capabilities and resources. The following is a list of the exhibits from Anaheim: Miss Agusta Hartung, worked quilt. This exhibit was much admired for its public importance at the power company.

Isaac Cohen has rented the rooms in the second story of the Odd Fellows' hall building for use as sleeping apartments. Married—In Anaheim on October 14th, 1878, by Alexander Bailey, J. P., R. Bohn to Mrs. Sarah Virginia Bunting, both of Anaheim. An English clergyman, Rev. J. F. Furnis, has written a very interesting and graphic description of hell, "for the instruction of the young." Hell, he says, is situated 4000 miles from here, at the middle of the earth, and is tenanted by millions and millions of tormented creatures, who dwell in the midst of groans, screams, yells, cries, shouts, shrieks, roarings, hissings, howlings, wailings, fearful blasphemies and thunder, not to mention the sounds of "oceans of tears running down from millions of eyes with a great splash on the floors of hell." The Rev. Furnis then says, the roof is red hot, the walls are red hot, the floor is like a thick sheet of read hot iron.

The Ladies' Euchre club was entertained on Thursday afternoon by Mrs. Sandilands, when a very enjoyable game of progressive euchre was played.

Head, the latter will make a motion in the supreme court at Los Angeles court. Supervisor Wants More Publicity That juvenile crime and delinquency in Orange county would be greatly decreased by giving wide publicity through the newspapers to every case which comes before the county authorities is the opinion of Supervisor John Mitchell, of Garden Grove. Names of the youngsters involved should be published, he declared. Mitchell expressed his views before the board of supervisors when the question of lettering cars used by the probation department came before that body. "They ought to have letters half the size of the cars," said Mitchell. "Just as long as there is mystery connected with juvenile cases, delinquency will increase. As soon as everybody in the neighborhood knows a youngster has been detected in wrongdoing the rest of the kids will be mighty careful to keep on the right path." Supervisor George Jeffrey, of Irvine, joined Mitchell in advocating publicity or such cases. Probation Officer L. A. Warren explained to the board that the moral effect of letting everyone in the neighborhood know when a youngster had been picked up reacted in a detrimental manner. The use of lettered cars advertises what is going on, he said, and The Ladies' Aid society of the Methodist Episcopal church will serve oysters, supper and ice cream in the building formerly occupied by Yungbluth & Kroeger on Friday evening, October 30, beginning at 6 o'clock. Prices: 25 cents for oysters, 15 cents for supper, 10 cents for ice cream. Proceeds to go for the building of a parsonage. In the contested election case of E. T. Langley against Dist-Atty. H. C. Head, the latter will make a motion in the supreme court at Los Angeles on October 19 to dismiss the appeal from the decision of the superior court of this county, which rendered a verdict favorable to Head.

Bowers YES Dodge Brothers Standard Six is the fastest car, with the fastest pick-up, under a thousand dollars. HOWEVER That is only HALF the story. The IMPORTANT point is that this exceptional speed is made practical by Dodge ruggedness of chassis and body construction. OTHERS Might succeed in building a car at this price with equal SPEED, but to do so successfully they would also have to build a car with equal STURDINESS. AND That is where Dodge Brothers, with years of experience in building a dependable low-cost product, are years ahead of the field.

It is certainly a noble treasure and never fails of its purpose. I like to recommend it." And in the Evening of Life When age comes creeping on, with bowels relaxed, muscles weak, digestion poor and blood thinned, then is when constipation does its evil work in a night. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is so palatable, sets so well in the stomach, works so easily, so gently, so kindly with old folks as to accomplish its purpose without grime pain or other distress.
