IN THE DAYS OF 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 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK SEPTEMBER 10, 1881 The Anaheim band serenaded Governor Perkins at the Pico House on Monday night. The Executive of the State made a very happy response to the compliment. The ranch advertised for sale by Mr. S. B. Smith was sold by him a few days ago to Mr. T. J. House, late of Santa Clara county. Mr. House will take immediate possession. Mr. William R. Olden is able to be on the street again, after being confined to his bed for a long time by a very severe attack of erysipelas. He expects to be as strong and hearty as ever. The Board of Supervisors met on Monday. In the matter of the proposals for the $5000 school bonds of El Monte school district, the bid of Mr. J. W. Helman, offering a premium of 1 per cent, was accepted. Much anxiety is manifested by the orchardists in the southern and western parts of the city on account of their trees putting out full blossoms out of season. Will someone who understands the cause and effect rise and explain! The removal of President Garfield to Long Branch has been successfully accomplished. He stood the trip remarkably well and great expectations are indulged in, now that he is removed from the malarial atmosphere of Washington. Mr. Theo. Reiser will use this season a new style of grape crusher, which is claimed to be superior in many respects to those in common use. There are some new crushers, however, that do not come up to the standard of merit claimed for them, as Mr. F. A. Korn, who bought one recently, is prepared to testify.

At the meeting of the normal school trustees in San Jose, various plans were submitted for the branch school at Los Angeles. None of the plans was finally adopted. S. H. Kent was elected superintendent of construction at a salary of $175 per month; J. D. Campbell was elected foreman of construction at $130 per month, and J. R. Brierly was elected clerk at $75 per month. The Centennial celebration in Los Angeles on Monday was the grandest affair that ever took place in that city. The town was literally filled with people, and the parade was at once novel and interesting. One feature, which attracted the greatest attention, was an old-time "carreta" on wooden wheels which contained two Mexican women—Benjamina, aged 117 years, and Laura, aged 102 years. The Southern California Conference of the M. E. church, which has been in session at Santa Barbara, has made the following appointments for this county: Los Angeles district, C. Shelling, P. E.; Los Angeles, E. S. Chase, M. M. Bovard and A. Diaz; Florence, A. M. Hough; Compton, J. B. Green; Westminster and Artesia, C. G. Belnap; Orange and Garden Grove, W. Nixon; Santa Ana, C. W. Tarr; Pomona, J. D. Crumm; Pasadena and San Gabriel, R. W. Farnsworth. Rev., B. A. Washburn has been assigned to Bakersfield. Josiah Baughney, a native of Ireland, aged 57 years, a forty-niner and a miner, lost his life in Silverado last week when water was turned into one of the tunnels. The old man remained after he had been told by Judge S. J. Davis to quit work, and the miners had retired to the face of the tunnel. A detailed statement of the fatal accident is given by a correspondent. In addition, Mr. Cash Harvey called and informed us that Baughney at one time worked for Mr. John Adams of this place, and is doubtless known to many of our people. The seats for the new Episcopal church at Tustin City will be finished this week, and all the work that will be done upon it this year will be completed the week following. We are told that the entire cost thus far has been about $1500, all of which has been paid, so that there will be no debt. The church will not be consecrated until the bishop of the diocese comes down, which may be some time this fall, but it will be occupied for the first time a week from tomorrow—September 18th, 1881. The service will begin at 11 a.m. On that date there will be no morning service at St. Michael's church, but one in the evening beginning at 8 o'clock. On one or two mornings during the week, ominous puffs of On one or two mornings during the week, ominous puffs of hot wind and the hazy appearance of the eastern horizon gave rise to a fear that a "Santa Ana wind" would obtrude its unwelcome presence on the valley. Up to the present writing, however, the county has escaped the dreaded visitation. At this time it would do great injury. Some grapes would be blown from the vines, and those remaining would be sshriveled and dried up. The orange orchards would also suffer at a later date, when the forces of Boreas are fairly due. The winter of 1880-81 was peculiarly free from these Santa Ana winds, and it was also peculiarly free from the required amount of rainfall. If old residents of this valley will tax their memory, they will remember that plenty of wind, plenty of rain—and little wind, little rain—has been the rule every season. These winds are disagreeable enough but if their absence is to be marked with a corresponding slight rainfall, then let 'em blow, say we. "Plenty of wind, plenty of rain— Dries up malaria and ripens the grain." The Board of Town Trustees met in regular session on Wednesday afternoon. The marshal was instructed to compel the owner of the property on West street to build a bridge over said street at the point where he takes his irrigating water. The committee on public improvements was instructed to investigate the alleged destruction of bridges by the house-mover, and authorized to take such action in the matter as they might deem necessary. The petition of A. H. Slaught for a franchise for a street railway was laid over for one month. (This railway was to be a single track railway running from the Landing via Westminster and Garden Grove to Center street near the Southern Pacific depot, thence along Center street through Anaheim to the San Bernardino road, which it may follow to the county limits in Santa Ana river valley. Said franchise to be granted for the term of twenty-five years, and to run cars thereon to be drawn by horses, steam or other power for accommodating or transporting passengers.) The petition of Theo Rimpau and others asking for an extension of the water main was laid over pending the action of the Board in increasing the water supply. 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK SEPTEMBER 13, 1906 Contractor Boney on Monday began work on James M. Backs' new residence on Claudina street. Joseph Dauser and S. O. Llewellyn went to Huntington Beach this week to attend the Grand Army encampment. Mr. and Mrs. Alex Wright of Orangethorpe returned on Sunday from Newport, where they spent the summer. Judge Howard and F. C. Spencer attended a meeting of the Republican county central committee at Santa Ana on Tuesday. Members of Company E will be paid this evening at the Armory for services rendered during the San Francisco fire. About $2100 will be disbursed among the boys. William Wallop and E. Michod, who have been on a camping trip in Bear valley and other mountain resorts in Riverside and San Diego counties, returned home on Tuesday. Schools opened on Monday with rooms crowded. A larger number of children were in attendance than at any former time in the history of local schools. The high school opened with 80 students, 30 being freshmen. Dr. J. H. Bullard of Los Angeles received telegraphic announcement on Saturday at the death at Hollister, a suburb of Boston, of his father, in the 92nd year of his age. Dr. Bullard had just recently visited at his old home, at which time his aged father was in feeble health. On the Sidewalks of New York By OBSERVER Correspondence to The Gazette Street Comedians Many of the sandwich men along Broadway add a touch of comedy to their advertising stunt. One of the best is a young fellow on stilts, whose side hat is twelve feet in the clouds. He always has a crowd watching him and reading the ad he carries. The other day I saw him cross Thirty-fifth street against traffic. Nearly over, he tripped. He just caught himself, but he made the crowd gasp. What! Again! I saw him again today. He was crossing Fortieth street against traffic. Nearly over, he tripped. He just caught himself. Just then I caught his eye and winked at him. He merely grinned. It was an mission that it was a stunt—and mighty good one. One that hardened New Yorkers eat up. A Faded Flower Years ago a certain pretty girl was the toast of Broadway. She was religning beauty on the stage. The other day I passed a hairdresser on Fifth avenue. In a frame were pictures of women who had dyed the gray hair, with their testimonial letters. Her picture, as beautiful as ever, was in the center of the lay-out. Just one more of the many heart twinges that come at nearly every corner in this big town. A Tip on Eating Rural visitors to this city need no fear being forced to pay out to muni for eating. One can get meals from thirty cents up. All restaurants carry cards on the windows showing their prices and people here, if they don't know the place stop and read the bill before entering. Schools opened on Monday with rooms crowded.

Dr. Bullard had just recently visited at his old home, at which time his aged father was in feeble health. L. A. Evans reports the sale of ten acres belonging to Marion Lee at West Anaheim to D. Reiner, a recent arrival from the east: consideration, $2000. Also the J. F. Ahlborn residence on Adele street to O. D. Enfield, principal of the Loares school for $2300. James M. Backs has been appointed local representative of the Home Telephone Company, which will shortly begin the erection of its new office building adjoining the postoffice. The company has received five carloads of poles and other material here as well as a similar consignment at Fullerton, and a large force of employees is at work preparing to extend the system. Pete Nicolas and O. R. Fuller will open a first-class livery stable in Fullerton the first of next month with a branch at the oil wells. The new firm will also conduct the Nicolas hotel property as a rooming house and may later embark in the hotel business. The young gentlemen have a wide circle of friends throughout this section who wish them success in their new enterprise. R. B. Balcomb of the First National Bank of Fullerton was married at Orange on Wednesday evening to Mrs. Lena Speath, a charming young widow recently arrived from the east. A large number of wedding guests were present and an elaborate wedding breakfast was served at the Palmyra hotel. Mr. and Mrs. Balcomb will leave this week for an extended honeymoon through the eastern states. The new home of Prof. and Mrs. A. A. Mills on North Los Angeles street was the scene on Wednesday afternoon of a very pleasant surprise party tendered Irene and Edna Mills by their Sunday school teacher, Mrs. H. W. Comstock, and the remainder of their class. There were present Kathryn Hayden, Adelaid Gates, Lizzie Yoern, Henrietta Schindler, Gladys Gobli, Eldeen Armstrong, Norman Rose and Jeanette McAuley. Ice cream and cake were served and a happy time was had by the young people. The financial statement issued this week by the First National Bank shows deposits aggregating $328,898, and total resources amounting to $406,698. This is the high-water mark shown by this institution. The bank is in personal charge of John Hartung. His assistants, Miss Olga Zeus and O. Storm, wait upon customers with customary affability and the bank's friends increase daily. Its president is W. F. Botsford of Los Angeles and its directors comprise some of the most substantial citizens in the community. H. Clay Kellogg and a corps of assistants have been busily engaged for the past thirty days in preparing plans and specifications for the big reservoir back of Yorba, which he will soon A Tip on Eating Rural visitors to this city need no fear being forced to pay out to much for eating. One can get meals from thirty cents up. All restaurants carry cards on the windows showing their prices and people here, if they don't know the place stop and read the bill before entering. It tells them exactly how much they can get out for. Chain Restaurants There are about a dozen chains of restaurants in New York, all with the same varying scale of prices. When you have eaten in one you know what it costs to eat in any of them. Lots of people pick out one of the chains as stick to it. It eaves the risk of being charged too much. One of the chains has set a fine charge of sixty cents for "all you eat." And they mean it. You can't have five portions of ice cream, two orders of roast beef and so on. No limit. One manager told me few people to advantage of the special price. Qry a few, and they grow ashamed of their selves after about two trips and order only a little more than normally. The restaurants explain that they are only passing on the lowered prices foodstuffs to their customers. Pocket Money Few millionaires carry much cash their pockets these days. Hold-up men know this and never bother them, except when they are returning with their womenfolk from the opera or theatre. Then they can be sure of a haul Jewelry. One millionaire told me it was a general custom with all rich men. They are so well known all over town that they have no trouble cashing checks for enough to pay their dinner check. All they need is enough money to do door-openers and hat-check girls with less than $5 in silver. Walter's tips are marked on the dinner check. The average wealthy man can go week in this city on $10 in currency by his pockets. It's only the newly rich gambblers and politicians who can around rolls of bills big enough to choose a horse. First Trial Given New Beet Harveste The first trial of a new type of sugar beet harvester was given in an Orang county field recently, and to those w H. Clay Kellogg and a corps of assistants have been busily engaged for the past thirty days in preparing plans and specifications for the big reservoir back of Yorba, which he will soon commence building for the Anaheim Union Water Company. The reservoir will be built at a cost of $27,000, and will be a splendid investment for the stockholders and irrigators of the company on this side of the river. The dam is to be built of earth and will be 50 feet high, giving it a capacity of 51,392,762 cubic feet. It is to be used for the storage of the winter and spring flow of water in the Santa Ana river which will be used for summer irrigating. Turners have incorporated for the purpose of erecting a gymnasium and natatorium for members of that association. A lot 100 by 123 feet has been purchased from H. Hildebrand at the corner of Sycamore and Los Angeles streets, and in the near future one of the most commodious gymnasiums in southern California will grace the ground. Shower baths and swimming tanks will be provided and the gym filled with the latest and most approved turning apparatus. The new incorporation selected five directors as follows: Fred Martin, president; F. Gruenemay, secretary; Henry Oelkers, Hans Hiltscher and Joseph Backs, Sr. Prof. Isenberg will be instructor in turning and expects to have some of the best turning classes in southern California. Miss Sarah Sappington of Los Angeles was entertained at a linen shower by Misses Agnes and Claudina Rimpau at their parent's residence on Friday evening. The evening was delightfully spent in music and games. Miss Sappington was made the recipient of many gifts in honor of her approaching marriage to Fred Rimpau of Fairbank, Arizona. Miss Adella Strodthoff was awarded the evening's game prize. Refreshments were served and at a late hour the party dispersed. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. Adolph Rimpau, Misses Claudina and Agnes Rimpau, Adella Strodthoff, Maud Mickle, Clara Boege, Olga Boege, Blanch Walters, Nonie McWilliams, Edna McWilliams, Vera Gade, Mabel Gade, Julia Nemetz, Vickie Nemetz, Polly Nemetz, Alice Robison, Sophie Rimpau, Marie Rimpau, Zoila Smythe, Edith Wallop, Mary Grim, Annie Arnold, Mrs. F. Borth, Mrs. A. Mitchell, Mrs. M. Skinner. The marriage of Mr. Rimpau and Miss Sappington occurs next week. Sidewalks of New York By OBSERVER Dependence to The Gazette The sandwich men along the sandwich men along add a touch of comedy to passing stunt.

THE FELLOW THAT SAYS HE'S BOSS IN HIS OWN HOME WILL LIE ABOUT OTHER THINGS, TOO. Saw the test it indicated that a revolution in beet harvesting is at hand. The tests were made to ascertain what might be necessary in the way of changes or readjustments that they might be overcome before the sugar beet harvest starts in Colorado, the heart of the industry in America, and where the machine is to be used on a commercial scale this season. The harvester was developed by E. M. Mervine, of the U. S. Bureau of Agricultural Engineering. It is in effect the adapting of a successful red beet harvester used by the canning industry in the East to the heavier and larger sugar beets of the West. A successful sugar beet harvester has been one of the chief desires since the inception of the industry, and many machines have been tried out, but the newest machine promises to solve the problem. Two unique and patented features are the rubber conveyors and rotary rods, which bring the beets to three topping knives for better cutting than is done by hand. It is the plan of the manufacturers to lease the new harvester on a tonnage or acre basis and service them with their own staff, as has been done in the table beet canning areas. The new harvester is expected to reduce the cost of production of sugar. Waste hemlock bark has possibilities as a substitute for the vanishing chestnut used in tanning. Federal chemists will try to devise commercially practical methods. A SELECTIVE SCHOOL FOR PARTICULAR PEOPLE We have been training young men and women in Orange County since 1909. We know employers.
