Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter of Authentic History in Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim

JULY 17, 1880
Census Matters—Superintendent Walker, in order to give a wide circulation to the result of his work, has devised plans whereby certain portions of it may be available without costing a great amount of money. He proposes that each one of the more important subjects of inquiry be published in a volume by itself in quarto form, that they may be bound together if desired and also to issue a pocket edition for the use of business men. The census of Tucson A. T. shows its population to be within a fraction of 7,000 inhabitants. Pima county will foot up about 2400 being an increase of about 2100 in ten years. Census returns give the population of San Francisco at 233,066, including the 20,549 Chinese.
Thirty one Angelenos in a single small mining camp in Arizona goes far to explain how one census has failed to realize the expectations of one more sanguine people.
San Diego county has a population of 8,620 which does not include Indians. The pueblo of San Diego has a population of 2,637.
San Louis Obispo county has a population of 9,064. San Bernardino county has 7,800.
Los Angeles county population fooths up around 34,000.
Anaheim boasts a population of 813.
We are indebted to Mr. C. W. Campbell for excellent samples of Millet, Flax, Rye and numerous varieties of wheat, all grown in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties. Farmers and others who desire to inspect these samples are invited to call at this office any time.
A pamphlet has been printed at the Gazette job office during the week, which contains an address to the shareholders of the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Company. Its author Mr. Fred Weber, gives a history of his attempt to obtain the lease of the water power on the Orange canal to enable him to build a flouring mill, and recounts at length how his plans were thwarted and how he was compelled to abandon the whole enterprise. Mr. Weber has the pamphlet for distribution.

Business is so slack in his office that Sheriff Rowland has found it necessary to dispense with the services of all his deputies except Mr. Kays. The same men will be called into requisition again when required. While business is thus languishing at this end of the court house, at the other end the county recorder is so crowded with work that he has been obliged to employ an extra deputy. Abundant transfers and slack executions must be signs of good times.
It is rumored that in re-districting the county in accordance with the new law, the Board of Supervisors have fixed upon the following to comprise the sixth supervisorial district: Anaheim, Downey, Los Nietos, Norwalk, Garden Grove and Westminster. The seventh supervisorial district will probably be composed of the townships of San Juan, Santa Ana and Fountain Valley.
A sharp shower of rain on Thursday morning about 5 o'clock ushered in a very remarkable day for these parts. The weather was close and sultry, and clouds obscured the sky all day long emitting occasional rain drops. The weather was very suggestive of thunder storms, but we were spared the racket. The tops of the San Antonio an Cucamonga mountains glistened with snow—a very unusual occurrence in the month of July.
The French residents of Los Angeles celebrated their Fourth of July on last Wednesday by a grand procession, banquet and usual attendant ceremonies. On the 14th of July, 1779, the French Bastile was captured and destroyed by the people of Paris, and now that the French Republic is a settled fact, the French have fixed upon the 14th of this month as a day to celebrate, for from the destruction of the Bastile dates the movement towards a Republican form of government in France. At the banquet spoken of a model of the Bastile with soldiers, cannon, etc., was displayed and at the proper time the whole structure was blown to fragments by a concealed bomb.
We acknowledge the receipt of a complimentary invitation to attend the annual Fair of the State Agricultural society which begins at Sacramento on the 20th and ends on the 25th of September. The secretary concludes his pressing invitation by alluding to the fact that President Hayes will be in attendance at the Fair and hopes that the editor of the Gazette will also be present. Hayes and I!

It is thought by people conversants with the matter that the rate of taxation in this county will be $1.40 on the $100. In San Bernardino county it is supposed that the rate will be a little less than $1 on the $100.
Mr. Fritz Rhumann is now installed in the large room adjoining the one formerly used by him.
On Wednesday last Miss Mary Chilson of Orangethorpe, was thrown from her horse and her left arm was broken close to the shoulder joint.
The constantly increasing business of the firm of B. Dreyfus & Co. has necessitated the building of a new warehouse on Fifth and Brannan streets, San Francisco. The building is 175 x 250-feet. The work of removing to their new quarters is now going on.
At the meeting of Anaheim Lodge No. 199 I. O. O. F., held on last Tuesday evening the following officers were installed by Deputy District Grand Master Bailey; J. H. Gooch, N. G.; J. P. Zeyn, V. G.; B. F. McDonald secretary; W. M. Higgins, treasurer.
The store of Herman Jacoby at Wilmington was damaged by fire on last Friday morning to the amount of $3000.
A seven pound bar of pure lead from the Santiago company's mine is on exhibition at Langenberger's store.
The Riverside hotel was burned on Wednesday morning. The building is a total loss, but was insured. The furniture was saved. The fire caught in the roof from causes unknown.
Largest stock of ribbons on this end of the county will be found at Mrs. Flora Brown's millinery store. Ladies purchasing their ribbons there can have them made up in bows or sets of bows without extra cost.

25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK
JULY 20, 1905
The marriage of John Tuffree and Miss Mable Lee, who for some time past has been bookkeeper at Asher and Falkenstein's was solemnized at Santa Ana on Saturday. The newly married couple went to San Diego on a honeymoon trip and will visit Santa Barbara and other up coast points of interest before returning to take up their home on the groom's ranch at Placentia.
Clyde Bishop of Santa Ana has been selected by the chamber of commerce of that city to deliver an address upon the resources and industries of Orange county at the Portland exposition on Orange county day, July 24. Mr. Bishop is well fitted for the task, being conspicuous among the notable orators of Southern California, and we look to him to excell himself on this occasion.
H. E. Huntington last week purchased the Redondo Beach townsite and followed it a few days later by buying 1100 acre of the Downey ranch adjoining the townsite on the south. His initial purchase started a boom at the beach which lasted for several days. Property values leaped to unheard figures and there was considerable excitement while the speculative fever lasted. Huntington and his associates will make the beach one of the most attractive watering places on the coast.
J. B. Gersbach has purchased the Werder walnut orchard for $7500, and this week took possession of the property. Mr. Gersbach is accompanied by his wife and will make his permanent home in this city. He is recently from Denver where he is engaged in the wholesale butter business. Being a man of large means, he contemplates other purchases and may in the near future take up the matter of erecting a number of cottages for rental. The new arrivals are old time friends of Wm. Schwenkert, who lost no time in seeing them safely located in the garden spot of Southern California.
Complaint is made of the practice of using the entrance to the dairy industry on sound basis.
Federal Bureau Doing Splendid Work In Behalf of the State Herds
Members of the annual California State Milk-Control Conference, were told of the work of the federal Bureau of Dairy Industry in an address given by O. E. Reed, chief of that bureau.
One of the most outstanding problems facing the dairy industry is determination of the actual economic value of the producing unit of the industry, Reed declared.
"The average per-cow production of the dairy cows of the United States is very low, too low for profit, either under present economic conditions or under any normal economic conditions which conceivably may exist in the future," the bureau chief said.
"Not until the industry knows definitively which of its cows are profitable and which are not, will it be able intelligently free itself from those uneconomic charges which either must be levied upon the consumer or be absorbed as a loss by the dairyman themselves."
"Sound economics demands that the industry maintain only those producible units which produce efficiently and economically, and the consumer has right to expect that the producing phase of the industry will increase its efficiency."
Reed outlined the work now being done by his bureau in improving the industry. The bureau is fundamentally a research organization, he said, although it is engaged in some service work, practically in the manufacturing phases.
The research work has to do principally with the breeding, feeding and management of dairy cattle; manufacturing of dairy products and the economic utilization of milk by products increasing per-cow production effectively; and improving the general level of quality of the products which the industry puts upon the market.
Improvement of ice cream and processes of concentrating milk occupies much of the bureau's attention, according.
Complaint is made of the practice of using the entrance to the high school as a lounging place at night by loungers. Corners are filled with a miscellaneous collection of cigar butts and the floor stained with tobacco. The school trustees will see to it that the nuisance is abated.
Miss Minna Roper has returned to her home in Santa Ana after an absence of two years in New York, during which time she studied voice culture. While at a point in Illinois on her homeward journery Miss Roper sustained severe bruises in a railway accident but pluckily continued on her way home.
New machinery for the Union brewery is on its way from the east and will be installed in the bottling department upon its arrival. The capacity of the brewery is being taxed to its utmost, and while extensive additions and improvements have been added during the year, other additions are in prospect. The beer made at this famous brewery is said by connoisseurs to be the best brewed on the Pacific coast, and a constantly increasing demand exists for it not only at home but throughout Southern California.
Sessions of the Orange county institute of the W. C. T. U. will begin at Huntington Beach this morning at 10 o'clock. Delegates from many towns will be present and bring basket dinners tomorrow. They will remain over for Friday, the institute closing with the afternoon session. Those who will take part in tomorrow's program are Mrs. Anna Hill, the county president; Mrs. Florence Case, Mrs. Alice Inman, Mrs. L. H. Mills; Mrs. Belle Rogers and all local presidents. J. W. Millar will address the afternoon session and Rev. George Clark will speak in the evening.
E. W. West of Canton, Ohio, has been in town during the week, superintending the erection of the new vault for the First National bank. Mr. West has three assistants who will be two weeks on the job. The vault weights 72 tons and is of the latest and most approved pattern. Its foundation is constructed of solid concrete and crossed railway steel rails to a depth of three feet. Its dimensions are 10 x 16 feet and 7 feet in height. Its cost is $6000.
Walter Crowther has been selected by members of the city band to become its leader and instructor, Prof. Fruh having retired. Walter is one of the most expert cornettists in the state and under his leadership the band ought to continue as a first class musical organization.
Pat Seale successfully passed examination last week as pipe fitter to enter governmental employ on the Panama canal. Pat was put through a rigid examination and came through all right. He will leave for Panama about the first.
Pill Box Traps
For Red Ants
An ordinary pill box can be converted into an excellent trap for ants in a few minutes, and does not call for any mechanical ability whatever. When properly made and baited this trip has been unusually satisfactory for breaking up colonies of the little red ants sometimes known as Pharaoh's ants which are so found of sugar.
The pill-box trap, devised by Dr. R. T. Cotton and G. W. Ellington, entomologists of the United States Department of Agriculture, is very simple to make. Take an ordinary cardboard pill box, remove the top, and cut out four small square holes from the inner collar. Pour a thin layer of hot paraffin inside the box to make it water-tight. When in use the top of the box is partially raised to expose the holes and allow the ants to enter. Poison balts attract the ants to the trap, where they either die at once or carry the poison away and spread it among other ants.
A good homemade bait can be prepared by rubbing a small quantity of tartar emetic into small bits of bacon rind. Another bait which has given excellent results is made by dissolving four ounces of sugar in one-half pint of water, to which is added thirty grains of sodium arsenate and a little honey. Heat to boiling and strain. The best plan is to have the local druggist prepare this and other baits which contain violent poisons.
When a sirup bait is used the box should be partially filled with small bits of blotting paper and the sirup poured on the paper. When not in actual use the lids should be pushed all the way down on the boxes, and they should be put away where children and pets cannot get to them.

Guardian of the Family
MY father, who is past 75, shares our bottle of Syrup Pepsin with his little great-granddaughter aged three. And when I feel constipated, with headache and biliousness, I also get my share of Syrup Pepsin. We would as soon think of being without salt and sugar as not to have a bottle of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin in the house." (Name and address will be furnished upon request)
Constipation Always a Danger
"Always something," says mother. "Biliousness, sour stomach, headache, colds, fevers—you never know when or what." Syrup Pepsin is mother's safeguard. Sweetens stomach, moves bowels; children recover like magic. No wonder mothers everywhere know and trust Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It is the guardian of the family's health. Sweet, sirupy—children and old people love it. Mild, yet thorough in action. Sudden colds, fevers, headache—conditions responsible for nearly all disease—a dose of Syrup Pepsin and all fear is gone. Once in the home every mother says—"I keep it always on hand." Every druggist sells Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
