IN THE DAYS OF Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century Ago. These Files Contain the only Authentic History of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange County. 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK JUNE 28, 1879. The tenth wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Konig was celebrated on Wednesday evening by a gathering of friends at their hospitable home, and so supreme was the enjoyment that not until the wee sma' hours did the gathering disperse. Many unique and useful presents of tin were made to the host and hostess, and the congratulations showered upon them were as sincere as numerous. About 2 o'clock on Monday afternoon a large barn belonging to R. W. Scott, Esq., was discovered to be on fire, and the alarm was promptly responded to by firemen and citizens. There was little or nothing to be done, however, as the barn was a mass of flames before assistance arrived. Stored in the barn and of course utterly destroyed, was a handsome new carriage which Mr. Scott imported from the East a month ago. It cost him $375. The total loss amounted to $750. No insurance. Mr. Scott's little boy, while playing with matches, built a fire behind the barn and the flames communicated with the hay, with the result stated. The residence was only about thirty feet distant, but the wind, fortunately, blew the flames and sparks directly away from the house, otherwise it could not have escaped. At the meeting of the stockholders of the Cajon Irrigating Company held yesterday, the following Board of Trustees was elected: C. S. Miles, J. B. Pierce, D. W. Gelwicks, David Yorba and W. M. McFadden. The board organized by electing the following officers: D. W. Gelwicks, president; W. M. McFadden, vice-president; L. R. Pierce secretary; C. S. Miles treasurer.

McFadden. The board organized by electeing the following officers: D. W. Gelwicks, president; W. M. McFadden, vice-president; J. B. Pierce, secretary; C. S. Miles, treasurer. The auditing committee is composed of J. B. Tombes, F. J. Floyd and R. W. Scott. Mr. Richard Melrose has been appointed agent for the Standard Fire Insurance Company of New Zealand. The company also insures growing crops at favorable rates. From Mr. S. L. Chilson we learn that his son, D. G. Chilson, has disposed of a one-third interest in one of his Arizona mines to a New York company. He received $10,000 in cash, and is to receive a further sum of $5,000 in one month and $30,000 in January next. The mine is named "Silver Nugget" and is located in Richmond Basin, Globe District. Mr. Chilson is now in Anaheim but will leave for Arizona in a few days to set men at work grading and preparing a site for a large mill which it is proposed to put up immediately. Col. W. S. Davis returned on Sunday night from Boston, where he has been for the past two months on a visit to his relatives. During a conversation with the Colonel we learned that there are four depots in Boston where California wine is exclusively sold. While visiting one of these places he was asked by the proprietor to try a glass of port wine, and upon expressing a favorable opinion upon the wine, he was told that it came from the vineyard of Wm. Konig of Anaheim. Three Mexican boys were arrested on Monday night by Marshal Payne on a charge of house breaking. It seems that they forcibly entered Mr. Hammes' house and stole a pistol from under the pillow. On examination before Justice Bailey yesterday, one was discharged and two were held over in $1,000 bail. It was rumored on the streets yesterday that the petition of the Anaheim Union Water Company for a dissolution of the injunction obtained by the Orange company had been denied by the District Court, but we could find no such proceedings on the court reports of the Los Angeles papers. Mr. A. Grossman left for Napa City yesterday morning. Being somewhat busy before his departure he takes this method of bidding good-bye to those of his friends whom he was unable to call upon personally. On last Tuesday Anaheim Lodge No. 199. I. O. O. F., elected following officers: D. G. Sorenson, N. G.; L. N. Evans, V. G.; Taylor, S. P.; H. S. Austin, P. S.; S. H. Dyer, treasurer. An election for trustees will be held in the various school districts of the county today. The retiring trustee in Anaheim is Mr. H Kroeger, who has very acceptably filled the thankless office during the past three years. Mr. A. Langenberger is a candidate for the office.

Kroeger, who has very acceptably filled the thankless office during the past three years. Mr. A. Langenberger is a candidate for the office. The Democratic primaries on Thursday afternoon, to elect three delegates to the convention to be held in Los Angeles evoked much interest and, as the result shows, the contest was a close one. Seventy votes were polled. Two tickets were in the field and the following is the vote: On the first ticket, R. W. Scott, 33; D. W. Gelwick, 35; Theo. Rimpau, 34. On the second, W. M. McFadden, 36; W. J. Smith, 36; R. M. Barham, 35. The tie between Gelwicks and Barham will probably be adjudicated upon by the convention. Dr. Higgins has had sixty-six glass call boxes placed in the postoffice, a convenience which the public will appreciate. The rental of one of these boxes is only twenty-five cents per quarter. There are sixty applicants for teachers' certificates now being examined by the county board of examination in Los Angeles. Don Juan Forster has sold to Mr. Livermore of San Francisco 2,200 head of cattle, 300 picked mares and 80 gentle horses. The latter has rented the ranch and put Don Alos Aguilar in charge of his interests. Branding will commence this week. A fine bunch of wheat can be seen at Mr. A. Langenberger's store. It is a good illustration of what can be done in this section with that crop. Mr. Guinn is engaged in taking the census of Anaheim school district. He will probably complete his labors on Saturday. A Phoenix, Arizona, telegram says the south-bound stage was robbed Friday night at 10 o'clock, three miles south of Phoenix, by one man who took the mail and express box. The mail bags were recovered, but the express box could not be found.

Little interest seems to attach to the school bond election July 8th, to vote bonds for erecting a four-room primary school building. The meeting called to assemble at the Central school on Monday evening lacked a quorum and those present adjourned without action. It is to be hoped that a large vote will be polled at the election and that the proposition advanced by the school trustees will be approved by voters. Additional school room is an imperative necessity and should be provided. The approved manner of meeting this condition is the issuance of bonds, and the amount asked for should be voted without opposition. If an assessment of ten cents on the $100 for providing necessary school facilities for our children is going to keep home-seekers from settling among us, they cannot be regarded as very desirable additions to the community. Those are not the kind of people we should seek to add to our population. Rather, let us invite the progressive, go-ahead class, the kind of people who believe in building school houses and other necessary improvements. The City Trustees at the meeting last week discussed the propriety of shutting down the electric light system during the summer at midnight. There was objection to the proposal, however, and the matter went over without action. It would create a distinctly unfavorable impression abroad if this step should be taken, and it is to be hoped council will not douse the glim until sunup. The liberals who think they can end all war by getting Uncle Sam into a world convention, might try out their theory first by calling a convention of wets and drys and trying to settle the liquor question. If they can put that over we will have a little more confidence in their ability to untangle the mazes of European politics. NOTICE BOARD OF EQUALIZATION Notice is hereby given, That the Board of Supervisors of Orange county, California, will meet as a Board of Equalization commencing the first Monday in July, 1929, and will continue in session as such Board of Equalization up to and including the third Monday in July, 1929.

Mrs. Hatzfeld entertained the Ladies Euchre Club at her handsome new home on Lemon street, on Thursday afternoon of last week. The drawing room, reception hall and dining room, where the card tables were arranged, were decorated in sweet peas and evergreens. Punch was served during the afternoon and ice cream and cake at the close of the game. Progressive euchre was played and the first prize, a lace center-piece, was won by Mrs. Smith of Los Angeles. Miss Marie Horstman won the second prize, a vase, and Mrs. Bird Beebe captured the consolation, a feather duster. The club will meet next month with Mrs. Strodthoff.

John Brunworth returned this week from St. Louis where he attended the fair. He was absent six weeks, and besides seeing the sights at the exposition, visited with relatives at various points east. At the fair he saw specimens of Anaheim walnuts, which were easily ahead of any nut exhibited at the show. The exposition he pronounces a grand thing and well worth remembering. Tim Boege was in town from the West End on Monday. He states that work on the railroad line between Benedict and Smeltzer will probably begin in the near future. Ernest Cayce residing with his family south of town is threatened with appendicitis. He is cultivating an eighteen-acre tract and is thinking of putting in a pumping plant. Frank Ey was a visitor in town from Santa Ana. Frank recently talked of making a trip to Europe, but has given up the idea and will take in the World's Fair. Mr. and Mrs. Horace Green of Long Beach were guests during the week of Mr. and Mrs. Beebe. Mrs. Louis Passmore of Los Angeles visited friends in town the past week. She was the guest of Mrs. J. J. Schneider. Alex Henry was in town yesterday. He is convalescing from his recent illness.
