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 50 Years Ago This Week NOVEMBER 21, 1879 The warhouse owned by Judge Alex Bailey in the rear of the Gazette building was blown down on Sunday by the severe Santa Ana wind storm. The goods stored there by Cohen Bros. suffered no damage. The Grange building at the denot was badly wrenched, and the occupants, Evans Brothers, will seek new and safer quarters. A shed on Lemon street belonging to Dr. D'Assonville was overturned and a small house on J. J. Hill's place met with amutual mishap. A windmill in Mr. Dreyfus' yard succumbed to the force of the wind. The most serious damage, however, was done to the orange crop, the violence of the wind dislodging great quantities of the fruit. Mr. Parker estimates his loss from this cause at $300. Mr. Korn loses nearly one-half of his crop and the fruit on Mr. Gus Davis' trees was thinned out considerably. The loss to Mr. Barr and other growers is quite heavy. Mr. Meredith's sheep were scattered, and a few of them nave not been found yet. The most remarkable illustration of the force of the wind is given by an occurrence at Mrs. Boldt's vineyard. A large tank cover, made of 1½ inch lumber was lifted from the ground and deposited in the branches of a tree fifteen feet away, the branches being sixteen feet above the ground. The explanation of this probably is that an eddy of wind formed at this particular spot where the cover was lying. The fierce wind of Monday piled up a bank of sand across the railroad track about two miles south of Anaheim and the locomotive of the Santa Ana train ran against the drift and was thrown from the track in the evening. Stages were sent from Santa Ana to get the passengers and mail, and assistance arrived from Los Angeles early on Tuesday morning and the locomotive was soon placed on the track. "It is never so bad but what it might be worse," is an old maxim. The wind was not a drying one—infected the weather was quite cold at the tank cover, made of 1½ inch lumber was lifted from the ground and deposited in the branches of a tree fifteen feet away, the branches being sixteen feet above the ground. The explanation of this probably is that an eddy of wind formed at this particular spot where the cover was lying. The fierce wind of Monday piled up a bank of sand across the railroad track about two miles south of Anaheim and the locomotive of the Santa Ana train ran against the drift and was thrown from the track in the evening. Stages were sent from Santa Ana to get the passengers and mail, and assistance arrived from Los Angeles early on Tuesday morning and the locomotive was soon placed on the track. "It is never so bad but what it might be worse," is an old maxim. The wind was not a drying one—infact the weather was quite cold at the height of the storm. Very little moisture was taken from the ground and sheep men say the grass was not injured in the least. The wind was the heaviest and longest which has prevailed since 169. In that year it blew with even greater force. Miss Clemmie Schmidt, who for three years past has been at school in Oakland, returned home a couple of weeks ago. On Wednesday night friends to the number of forty or fifty assembled at the home of Dr. Higgin's and from thence repaired to the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Langenberger, "surprising" them and Miss Schmidt most effectually. After indulging in the dance until midnight, the company partook of an elegant collation which the kind host and hostess had prepared, after which dancing was resumed and kept up until a late or rather, early, hour. It was unanimously voted to have been the most successful affair of the kind given in Anaheim in a long time and Miss Clemmie doubtless appreciates the warmth of her welcome home. We learn that Mr. John Hartung will plant twenty acres of vines on the land formerly owned by Mr. John Fischer, east of the present Hartung vineyard. Mr. M. Oefinger will also plant five acres this year and will endeavor to grow them without irrigation. Many of the vineyardssists will take up some of their old vines and plant cuttings instead. Mr. John P. Zeyn is building what will be, when finished a very elegant residence. It is 20 x40 feet and two stories in height. The builder Mr. Herman Zeyn, is using great taste and skill in its construction, and it will be a decided improvement to the town. The fact that the Weimer family, contemporaries of Marshall, the discoverer of gold in California, are living on Las Bolsas ranch, has already been noted in these columns. The other day Mrs. Weimer showed Marshall Poole a piece of gold, which she says is the identical piece of precious metal which Marshall first picked up in '48. That individual brought it to Mrs. Weiner to get her opinion as to whether it was gold, and she promptly decided it was. On last Sunday a party of hunters in an exhuberance of animal spirits and ammunition fired several shots into the Alamitos school house breaking the windows and doing other damages. A party was in town on Monday searching for the culprits but without success. A part of the front portion of Mr. Cahen's store has been rented by Miss Wallace and on Wednesday next she will open with a full line of Millinery goods. A Guy Smith stakes his reputation as a weather prophet on the prognostication that it will rain on the 8th of December, On last Sunday a party of hunters in an exhuberance of animal spirits and ammunition fired several shots into the Alamitos school house breaking the windows and doing other damages.

Guy Smith stakes his reputation as a weather prophet on the prognostication that it will rain on the 8th of December, should it do so we will give our readers his method of meteorological arithmetic. R. Menzel will open a store in Back's building adjoining the Planters stable. Besides his famous sausage he will keep pickles, cheese, and such like relishes in abundance. A fire occurred in San Bernardino on Wednesday night and three buildings were burned, one of them being the photographers of Harry Payne. Fires are getting so frequent in Sar Bernardino that it is difficult to keep a record of them. Charles Luedke, brother of our townsman Rudolph Luedke died on Tuesday morning at the residence of his son-in-law, Mr. Tom Boege, and was buried on Wednesday afternoon. His disease is dropsy from which he had long been a sufferer. The Colton Semi Tropic says: L. J. Rose, of San Gabriel, has made 220,000 gallons of wine, and 40,000 gallons of brandy this season, and is now buying wine to help out the brandy as he has not enough to run him through the season. He is paying 17½ cents per gallon for new wine suitable for distilling. Nap Donovan has sold the Santa Ana Herald to J. W. Layman, who promises to keep it up to the standard of excellence it has always maintained. Work is being energetically prosecuted at the mine of the Santiago Gold and Silver Mining Company. The tunnel is now in 98 feet and it is expected that the third ledge will be uncovered in a few feet more. Eighteen feet of the tunnel is cut through the solid rock, and progress is neccessarily slow. 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK NOVEMBER 17, 1904 Now that the election is over, credit for the victory in Orange county should be awarded in no little part to the chairman of the Republican county central committee. Hon. R. Y. Williams, of Santa Ana, who has been untiring in his efforts for many months to bring about the glorious results. Mr. Williams has proved himself to be a most energetic campaign manager, and his work did not cease until the votes were counted the night of election day. On the day of election he drove to many of the county precincts to look after the progress of the vote and to investigate reports of "scratching" which had come to his attention. His work did much to keep voters in line, and the splendid result is attributable in great part to his conscientious efforts in behalf of the whole ticket. The party owes a debt of gratitude to him and his efficient secretary for which the future should have adequate reward. Neill E. Beilev was elected to the Arizona Legislature from Cochise county by the largest majority given a Democrat in that territory. It was a frosty day for Democrats generally throughout the country, but Neill seems to have landed with votes to snare. We predict for him an honorable and useful record in the territorial assembly. Capt. Herman Stern has received from Adiutant-General Lux, notification of approval of Col. Finlev's recommendation relative to Co. E.'s target range north of town. Col. Finlev inspected the range while on a recent visit here and his approval is thus endorsed by the higher appeals. The range will be made one of the finest in the state and will probably be used by Los New Manager of Hollywood Bowl Glen M. Tindall, Talented Leader, Now in Charge: By C. N. P. A. Service Taking his place as general manager of the world's greatest community music enterprise, Glen M. Tindall recently selected as manager of Hollywood Bowl, is this week officially at his desk in the Hollywood office of the organization. The managership for the 1930 season of summer concerts, scheduled to be the most elaborate ever staged in the sky-topped amphitheater, rests now on the shoulders of Tindall, termed "a provident selection," by Mrs. Leiland Atherton Irish, general chairman of Hollywood Bowl Committees for the past four years. Tindall comes to his new community work direct from a successful three year term as director of musical activities for the Los Angeles Department of Playground and Recreation. During his service there he organized and launched several hundreds of amateur bands, choruses and instrumental ensembles. He is considered a national authority on procedure in organizing communities as yet without any form of musical activity. Said Tindall oh taking over his desk this week, "I consider the Bowl has an unlimited future! To me it is not a loceal thing—neither a Hollywood nor a Los Angeles enterprise. It belongs to all California, and the nation. I hope to help develop it so that it will become a Mecca for all of California. A graduate of Northwestern, university, Tindall is a trained musician as well as an executive. His specialty is the organ, though he is also trained in piano and voice. He has done considerable scholastic work in composition, orchestration, and music history. In the Middle West he organized one of the first complete school systems of music appreciation, and is the writer of the course of music used by the Indiana state department of education. His previous business experience includes a successful period of department store management. Cochise county by the largest majority given a Democrat in that territory.

Capt. Herman Stern has received from Adiutant-General Louis notification of approval of Col. Finlev's recommendation relative to Co. E's target range north of town. Col. Finlev inspected the range while on a recent visit here and his approval is thus endorsed by the higher annals. The range will be made one of the finest in the state and will probably be used by Los Angeles and other outside comanys along with local guardsmen. Cost of the range including necessary houses, telephones, etc., will be approximately $600.00. Photographer Howard has moved his studio to his new building, 142 South Los Angeles street where he has fitted up one of the closest and best appointed photographic parlors in the county. He is better fitted than ever for the production of high grade work. A photograph by Howard makes one forget his troubles. Call upon him at his new studio and inspect work and prices. His camera is strong and there is little danger of breakage, and there will be no charge except for the photographs, which will be done in the highest style of the art. Rev. Father Dubble received telegraphic summons yesterday morning from San Juan Canistrano to attend the burial of Don Vicenti Abila, a well known resident of that place who was accidentally killed by the overturning of his wagon-on a heavy grade. Francisco Gallardo who had an argument with fists with Policeman Kuehler and was fined $25 by Judge Howard, naid his fine, he having raised it from among his Mexican friends and has resumed his work in Prof. For's tensorial establishment. Senior Gallardo promises to be good in the future and never look upon the vino-tinto anymore. Judge Morquez was in town from Peralta on Saturday. He reports the Republican tidal wave overwhelming in the unriver preset of Yorba. Judge Morquez used to be one of the few Republicans at Yorba, but he thinks another election will make it unanimous. Mrs. Zeus entertained the Ladies' Fuchs club at her residence on Thursday afternoon. Dresswise one was the game and first prize was awarded Mrs. Strodtthoff second to Mrs. Asher and the concession to Mrs. Hatzfeld. Defractions of cake and ice cream were served and an enjoyable session of the club was participated in. W W. Sott has secured contract for the erection of W. B.
