As soon as the housemovers are done with their present job,
they will move Mr. R. J. Northam's house to another part of his
land.
A picnic will be given by the Anaheim Fire Department on
the 7th of August which will be participated in by six companies
of excursionists from Los Angeles, including the Fire Department of that city.
The busiest man in the community just now is our cooper
C. Wille. He is overwhelmed with orders for tanks and pipes,
and the great stacks of lumber in front of his shop show that he
is ready to respond to all demands.
The Southern Methodists of the Santa Ana and Newport
charges will hold their annual campmeeting at the usual camp
ground on the Santa Ana river where it is crossed by the Las
Bolsas school house road commencing on the 28th inst.
The meetings of Anaheim Lodge A, O. U. W. will hereafter

July 30. The literary program for next meeting includes readings
and declamations by Messrs. Ferguson, Grimshaw and Cowan.
The Postoffice Department has issued an order directing that

Before leaving here Mr. Guinn was presented with a handsome gift from his former pupils and was honored by a serenade by the band. He desires us to publish a card of thanks as follows: I take this means of sincerely thanking by former pupils of Anaheim school for the present of a beautiful silver pitcher and salver which I shall always treasure. I also return thanks to members of Anaheim Brass Band for the musical entertainment given myself and family on eve of our departure from Anaheim.
An accident which promised to have a fatal result occurred on last Monday afternoon. A team which was left standing on the street in charge of the young son of R. Menzel become frightened from some cause and ran away. The wagon collided with the porch of the store on the corner of Los Angeles and Center streets, tearing down the porch and throwing the boy from the wagon seat with fearful violence. He was picked up insensible, carried to the city drug store and given medical attention. To the wonder of those who saw the accident the physician found no bones broken, but the boy was bruised and severely shaken up. He is getting along nicely.
On last Friday night the Anaheim train collided with a team at the Foster crossing between Downey and Norwalk, killing both horses and smashing the wagon. The team, a valuable one, was the property of Mr. James Cox, of the Downey college, and was driven by Sam Hammer. The horses, it appears, were frightened by some cause—probably the train itself—and became unmanageable, running in front of the engine at the critical time. The driver was thrown some distance by the concussion, and was picked up in an unconscious condition. He sustained some bad bruises.
Messrs. Dreyfus & Co. have employed A. Lippi as a watchman to protect their vineyards from spoliation. The annual loss to vineyardists by stealing amounts to a large sum, and now that grapes have considerable value, it pays to exercise vigilance. The ubiquitous individual known as "the small boy," is the worst pest to contend against, but there are not lacking, children of a larger growth who fails to see the impropriety of invading a vineyard and carrying off as many grapes as they want. One gentleman while walking in his vineyard the other day came upon a spot where the vines had been stripped of their fruit and a number of pieces of cloth and grape skins strewn about showed how the grapes had been disposed of, some women, more thrifty than honest had invaded the vineyard, and sheltered by the foliage of the vines, had plucked the grapes and strained the juice through the cloths for the purpose of making jelly.

Personal—Mr. C. S. Miles is spending a couple of weeks in town—a circumstance of wwwhich D. E. takes advantage by rusticating at the Landing. Mr. E. A. Saxton and Mr. S. B. Smith with their families are camping at Bolsa Chica. Mr. Scheifflin of Los Angeles has been in town for several days the guest of his son-in-law, Col. Dunham. Mr. Geo. Rice publisher of the Semi-Tropic California, favored us with a call on Thursday. He is working up an interest in the Fair to be held in Los Angeles next September. Mr. C. W. Moores, the new principal of the public schools, has rented Mr. Guinn's house. Mr. Otto des Granges, Jr., reached his legal majority on Tuesday and the event was celebrated by a social gathering of his friends at Magnolia hall in the evening. Charlie Higgins has been suffering with an attack of malarial fever for the past two weeks but is regaining his normal health quite rapidly. Mr. W. R. Olden continues very sick. Mr. Wm. Newton, who has been superintending operations at the Black Star mine for some time has been called away to Belleville, Illinois.
Census bulletins containing a statement of the population of the different counties in California have been received at this office. The total population of Los Angeles county is given as 33,379. But there can be no question that the population of the county has increased fully 10,000 since the census was taken. The enumerators were in the field at a time of great depression in this county. Nearly every industry was at a low ebb and we have personal knowledge of the fact (having taken the census of this township,) that in fully one-third of the homes visited, one or more of the male members of the family were absent—the most of them in Arizona. These wanderers have nearly all returned, and, added to the new population, would give in our opinion, a total of about 45,000 souls in the county at the present time. In the census bulletin we received, Anaheim township, has a total of 1,469. Los Angeles city has 11,189—San Gabriel township including the village of Pasadena with 391, has 1,517. San Juan township, including the following villages, Orange 676, Santa Ana 711, Tustin 227,LaBallona including the village of Santa Monica with 417, has 2,493,

The Eagles initiated Messrs. Fischer and Billings into the aerie on Monday evening, putting the total membership near the 100 mark. After the ceremonies a dove dinner was discussed and enjoyed to the fullest extent.
Andy Fuhrberg has installed two electric fans at his place of business. The fans are propelled by power furnished by the Edison company. Mr. Fuhrberg will shortly go to Matilija Hot springs for a six-weeks outing.
The state institute of the W. C. T. U. is in session this week in the First Christian church, corner of American avenue and Fourth street, Long Beach. The Long Beach union dedicated their new drinking fountain yesterday.
Contractor Lagman has a force of mechanics engaged in remodeling the interior of the Helmsen building, which will be occupied when completed by B. Hartfield with a large stock of jewelry. A new plate glass front will be installed and other improvements made.
Al Smith, Henry Hussman, George Carroll, Percy Rust, Nate Ulm, County Treasurer Potter, Dr. Hill and others were seen on the sands at Newport Beach on Sunday afternoon. A $40,000 bath house and plunge is being erected at this point by the H. A. Peabody syndicate of capitalists.
An offer to trade Los Angeles business property for an eighty-acre walnut tract near this city is reported this week, the figures for the latter being placed at $80,000. While $1000 per acre has not yet been touched by walnut property in this neighborhood, we nevertheless think the time is not far distant when even this large figure will be exceeded.
David Hewes, owner of an extensive ranch east of Orange has a force of men at work on his Casa Loma park. When completed the grounds will prove one of the finest private parks in Southern California. The ranch includes several hundred acres, and Mr. Hewes has taken advantage of a high hill for the central feature. Around this the landscape artist has grouped his paths and driveways and artistically embellished the envirous with rare trees, shrubs and flowers.
Articles of incorporation for one of the largest telephone consolidations in the history of Southern California were filed with the County Clerk of Los Angeles county last week. The new company which is known as the Union Home Telephone and Telegraph company is planning to absorb the individual Home Telephone companies in all the towns outside of Los Angeles from San Diego to Santa Barbara. It is expected that at least fifty small companies will be absorbed by this new company. Controlling interest in nearly a dozen of these companies has already been received: The authorized capitalization of the Union Home Telephone and Telegraph company is $10,000,000 at $10,000,000 bonds.
KFI Dedicates Its New Transmitter
The new 50,000 watt transmitter station of KFI was dedicated at Buena Park last Sunday evening by a pretentious program on a nation-wide hook-up, with listeners-in all over the United States. On the special program were some of the noted stars of Radio-land, among them Amos and Andy, the "Sisters of the Skillet," Bill Jones and Ernie Harc, who almost laughed at their own jokes. Many of the "high-ups" of broadcasting systems were also heard in brief talks, "and so on far into the night."
The new transmitter station has slipped in on the air several times in the last two weeks, which accounts for an improved clearness to listeners-in.
The transmitter is the only 50,000 watt station on the Pacific Coast and the most powerful west of the Rocky mountains. While the two 400-foot towers were under construction, employment was as far as possible given to Buena Park men.
Having deflated the poor Russian peasant by inflating the currency until it takes a bale of it to buy anything, the Soviet government is now further deflating the peasant by doubling the cost of everything he buys. Maybe you think that isn't a system—for the fellow on top.

E. Fishburn, Frank Watcher, John E. Marble, Geo. B. Ellis, James V. Baldwin and A. B. McCutcheon.
No section of Orange county has improved more during the past year than the section immediately south and west of this city. New homes are being erected, pumping plants installed and a general upward trend noticeable on every hand. The only piece of land owned by the Stearns Ranchos company in all this region is a forty acre tract lying midway between this city and the Katella district. Not so many years ago the land company owned the original Mexican grant, extending for miles south and west. Now the whole country is settled and planted to trees with here and there a corn patch, a field of chili peppers, potatoes and alfalfa. Water from innumerable pumping plants whispers by in the ditches, the oiled roadways are lined on either side with splendid shade trees and one feels like nearing paradise while driving through this lovely spot. Fifteen years ago there was nothing here; now it is one of the loveliest spots in Southern California.
The Fifth Biennial convention of the California State League of Republican clubs, which was to have been held May 14th and 15th and which was postponed on account of the San Francisco catastrophe, will be held at Santa Cruz on Monday and Tuesday September 3rd and 4th.

Alternates may be chosen for each elected delegate, and they will be accorded seats in the convention with their respective delegations. The convention will elect officers to serve for two years. The fiftieth anniversary of the first republican nomination for President of the United States will be celebrated at this convention. A number of well known orators have been invited to address the convention.

How to train BABY'S BOWELS
Babies, bottle-fed or breast-fed, with any tendency to be constipated, would thrive if they received daily, half a teaspoonful of this old family doctor's prescription for the bowels.
That is one sure way to train tiny bowels to healthy regularity. To avoid the fretfulness, vomiting, crying, failure to gain, and other ills of constipated babies.
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is good for any baby. For this, you have the word of a famous doctor. Forty-seven years of practice taught him just what babies need to keep their little bowels active, regular; keep little bodies plump and healthy. For Dr. Caldwell specialized in the treatment of women and little ones. He attended over 3500 births without loss of one mother or baby.
