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 in the 50 Years Ago This Week SEPTEMBER 12, 1879. At the meeting of the Anaheim Literary Union on last Friday night, the following officers were elected to serve for the ensuing term of three months: President, J. M. Guinn; vice-president, Miss Ella Mitchell; secretary, E. M. Ferguson; editor, Miss Mary Brier. New life has been infused into the society and the meetings will be marked by a varied and carefully considered programme which will be carried out to the letter. The public is cordially invited to attend the weekly meetings at the Presbyterian church. Nearly every week during the past nine months some unknown idiot has cut a few inches of hair from the tail of Mr. Cahen's horse. The weekly spoilation is not sufficient to mar the beauty of the horse and it is incomprehensible what the depredator wants with the hair. The only way to find a clue to the identity of the perpetrator is to substitute an able-bodied mule for the docile horse. Any attempt to dock a mule's tail would be followed by consequences disastrous to the individual so engaged. Our Orange correspondent writes that the bee ranchers of the canyons are suffering from the depredations of bears upon their bee stands. A few days since Mr. Brown of Trabuco narrowly escaped a fearful hugging by springing into a tree that happened to be too small for the bear to climb. On Tuesday night Mr. Millard Parker, in Santiago Canyon, had several stands of honey and bees destroyed by the honey-loving grizzlies thereupon. The Anaheim membership approach day evening. The teeman Frank Sman and W. A temporary organ Lawrence was treasurer. On mittees: On By-Law rose. On Finance On Member Messrs.

On Tuesday night Mr. Millard Parker, in Santiago Canyon, had several stands of honey and bees destroyed by the honey-loving grizzlies, thereupon he and two of his neighbors last night lay in wait for their bearship, when of a sudden their ambush was surrounded by several of the monsters. Crack! Bang! Bang! went their firearms, producing a tremendous roar accompanied by a strong smell of powder. Result—Nobody hurt, bears fled, resolves to try them again. We have always understood that it is very difficult to shoot a bear when so close to him, on account of his great size! A break of about a hundred feet occurred on Monday last at a point known as the Horseshoe bend on the Cajon ditch. The disaster was caused by the water finding an opening through the squirrel holes. The break will probably be repaired by Monday or Tuesday, men being now at work on it, under the superintendence of Commissioner Zeyn. A number of friends of Mr. Seibert met at his residence on Thursday evening to tender him congratulations on the anniversary of his birthday. The guests were handsomely entertained by Mr. and Mrs. Seibert and the evening was very pleasantly spent. We have seen a specimen of the ore taken from the second ledge uncovered at the Santiago Company's mine. It is a decided improvement over the rich specimen mentioned last week. The company have run a tunnel along this ledge 47 feet, and the point from where the specimen was taken is fifty feet from the surface of the ground. General Grant has been invited to be present at the opening of the Horticultural Fair in Los Angeles next month. Jefferson Davis has been honored with an invitation from Dr. Fulton of the Sulphur Wells to visit that resort, and Mr. Davis in his reply intimates that he will accept the invitation. Louis Spinner, forman of E. W. Hawkins of Downey, shot and killed a Chinaman on Tuesday night. Spinner and a companion went into the Chinaman's house at Fulton Wells, and their story is that the occupants bolted the door and tried to rob them. A mass meeting of the Farmers and Workingmen will be held in Los Angeles tomorrow night, to discuss plans for future action. It is proposed to go on in perfecting the organization in this county. The Republicans having elected a majority of the supervisors in San Francisco, there is a remote possibility that the city may yet be blessed (or cursed, as the case may be) with a Republican mayor. Should Kallock die, which is not by any means a remote possibility, the filling of the vacant mayoralty would be the duty of the Board of Supervisors. In the probate court on Saturday in the matter of the estate A mass meeting of the Farmers and Workingmen will be held in Los Angeles tomorrow night, to discuss plans for future action.

The other two classes will be, one in Spanish and one on "The Modern Novel." Information regarding any of the classes may be secured from Miss Bernus, at the Julia Lathrop school. "INSIDE" INFORMATION All animals need minerals, but they are especially important for young growing animals and females carrying young. Common salt, lime, phosphorus and iodine are the minerals most commonly lacking in livestock rations. Onions intended for storage should be well matured, sound, and so dry the outer scales will crackle or "rattle." Immature or soft onions or those with thick necks, commonly referred to as "bottle necks," should be disposed of and not stored, as they will not keep well. Best results in fattening poultry are obtained by feeding soft mashes. The gain in weight is greater and the quality of the flesh is superior when wet masses are used than when whole grain is fed. Corn meal, oat meal, low-grade wheat flour, and finely ground buckwheat feed Messrs. L. E. Miller and Bird Beebe were appointed a committee to secure a permanent meeting place for the club. It was decided to meet on the second and fourth Mondays of September, and once a week during October. At the close of the meeting those present signed the membership roll, thus constituting themselves members of the club. The matter of dues was left over until the next meeting. This evening at Columbia Grove, officers and members of Company E will be the guest of Messrs. Hessel, Bauer and Fleuhrer, and F. W. Fleischman, who has tendered them a bull's head feast in honor of their excellent showing at Atascadero. The company will have a short drill, and will later repair to the grove for the purpose of making a determined assault upon the provender. The Union Brewing company has donated a liberal quantity of ice beverage with which to wash down the juicy viands which Herr Fleischman intends producing. The heads will be baked in the ground over night and a particularly delicious repast is anticipated. Adolph Rimpau is the first weather prophet to cast his horoscope, so far as reports have come in, and avers that if it does not blow on October 4th (St. Francis day) rain will fall on that day. He bases his prediction upon an ancient prediction of the aborigines, who used to stake their reputation as weather prophets upon what the 4th day of October brought forth. Taking his cue from the recent heavy downpour in Arizona, Adolph predicts it will rain on St. Francis' Day, and that we shall have oodles of water this winter. Hugh Smith writes to Fritz Yungbluth from Santa Ana that he has been laid up with rheumatism since his hike in from the Santiago Canyon, on which Fritz accompanied him Wednesday evening. Hugh is in training for a six-days' walking match, and his friends predict he will break all previous records. Richard Melrose returned this week from a trip to San Francisco, where he attended a meeting of candidates for presidential electors. He met Secretary Shaw and attended the gathering to hear the address of the eloquent Jowan. Mr. Melrose reports the northern metropolis enthusiastic in its support of the Republican ticket. Stephen Rimpau writes from Jerome A. T., where he is employed in Senator Clark's copper mine, that the territory has during the past month had more rain than in the previous twelve years. Previous to August there had not fallen a half inch of rain since the preceding October. All hands look for prosperous times in the territory. Geo. McPhee of the Santa Ana Blade and Judge F. O. Daniel of that city were in town on Saturday afternoon. Mr. McPhee has lately suffered the fracture of two of the bones in his right hand. Jacob Everhardy and daughter, Miss Anna Everhardy, departed this week for St. Louis and other points of interest east. They will be absent several weeks. Mrs. Konig writes from Hamburg under date of August 22 that she and Mr. Konig contemplated leaving for New York the following day on the steamer Moltke. The worthy couple are at this moment sightseeing at the World's Fair in St. Louis and are looked for to arrive home some day next week. Best results in fattening poultry are obtained by feeding soft mashes. The gain in weight is greater and the quality of the flesh is superior when wet mashes are used than when whole grain is fed. Corn meal, oat meal, low-grade wheat flour, and finely ground buckwheat are good for fattening feeds. Milk is excellent for fattening chickens. Prevention of frost damage plays an important part in the production of many crops. Farmers' Bulletin 1588-F recently issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture under the title "Frost and the Prevention of Frost Damage," discusses various methods and devices for protection against frost and gives the temperatures injurious to plants, blossoms and fruits. This bulletin can be secured from the Department of Agriculture, Washington. D.C. Dieticians say there are vitamins in hash, and some day the scientists may succeed in finding out what else there is in it. TIMETABLE In effect June 9, 1929 A. T. & S. F. Ry.
