IN THE DAYS OF LONDON Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter of a Centurion Authentic History in Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orlando 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK NOVEMBER 19, 1881. H. C. Gade and Miss Mary A. Stock, both of Anaheim were married in this city on November 3, by Justice Gannon. The San Francisco Call says that there is no doubt of the fact that Lieutenant-Governor Mansfield will be a candidate for the Republican nomination for governor. Mr. Theodore Lynill has established a real estate agency with an office in the Planters hotel and has secured the agency of a large number of valuable tracts of land. The ladies of the First Presbyterian church of Orange will give a dinner at Mr. Anderson's hotel in Orange on Thanksgiving day, commencing at 2 o'clock. All are invited. Five dollars reward will be paid for the return to this office of a silver-mounted meerschaum pipe, which was lost on Center or Los Angeles streets on the night of the 9th. President Garfield's portrait will be placed on the five cent foreign postage stamp. The engraving is now being executed by the American Bank Note company of New York. Mrs. Wallace and sister of the Millinery Parlors in the Metz building have received their winter stock of millinery, to which they call attention. Ladies will find much that is new and tasty in their invoices. Mr. F. P. Marsh, who went from here to Chicago some months ago, contracted a malarial trouble in that city, and is now at Delaware county endovering to recover his health.

Marsh, who went from here to Chicago some months ago, contracted a malarial trouble in that city, and is now at Belmont, Massachusetts, endeavoring to recover his health. Better come back to Anaheim, Frank. Everybody who has the necessary facilities should raise carp. There is profit and pleasure in the business. Mr. A. L. Taylor of Westminister will furnish carp in any quantity, and will instruct purchasers as to the proper care of the fish. Mr. S. H. Slaugt has been very successful in securing signatures to a petition asking the town trustees to grant him a franchise along the Center street for a street railroad. He will present the petition to the board at their meeting next month. The one hundred acre farm of F. L. Floyd was purchased a few days ago by Mm. Fromhein of Oakland, consideration being $4000. The purchaser will set out forty acres in vineyard the coming season and otherwise improve the place. It is again rumored that the railroad company will run a mail train, but there does not seem to be any authority for the rumor. Still another bit of gossip is that the fare between Anaheim and Los Angeles is to be reduced. Both of these changes are desirable. Mr. Langenberger has again received a lot of pickled olives of this years crop, which we predict will find a ready sale among those who were fortunate enough to purchase of them last year. These olives are grown and prepared by Mr. E. S. Saxton, and receive such care that every flavor of bitterness is removed from them. In our judgment they are even much sweeter this year than last year. Judge McNealy, of the superior court of San Diego will occupy the bench in Judge Sepulveda's court on the 30th, for the purpose of hearing the arguments of counsel in the case of the Anaheim Water company against the Semi-Tropic Water company. The plaintiffs will be represented by Messrs Thomas H. Smith and Judge Hupp of Los Angeles and by Robt W. Scott, Esq. of Anaheim. The defense by Messrs, Glassed; White and Bicknell. The arguments will consume several days and the question of riparian ownership and appropriation will receive a very thorough and learned discussion. Between 10 and 11 o'clock on Tuesday night, a faint light was seen by several persons in the back part of the store of E. E. Duncanson on Los Angeles street. An alarm was instantly given, and hardly had the clang of the fire bell began er a loud explosion occurred in the Curning building, several explosions followed, and the fire spread so rapidly that it was impossible to save any of the goods. In a very short time the building (a two-story one) was a mass of flames, and the adjoining one-story Bicknell.

An alarm was instantly given, and hardly had the clang of the fire bell began er a loud explosion occurred in the Curning building, several explosions followed, and the fire spread so rapidly that it was impossible to save any of the goods. In a very short time the building (a two-story one) was a mass of flames, and the adjoining one-story building also burned. Twenty or thirty feet to the south was the photograph gallery of Mr. A. L. Pellegrin. The destruction of this building would have been followed by the burning of a dwelling house and the Masonic hall, which were in close proximity. But the firemen were able with their three hundred feet of hose to pour such a stream of water on the exposed side of the building that it was saved, and, thus solely through the existence of the town water works, property was saved of a value five times greater than the entire cost of the water system. Dr. E. L. Cowan, the dentist occupied three upper rooms in the burned building. He was in bed and escaped by leaping from the window of his room to the roof of the porch and then to the ground. He lost almost everything he had in the world. His furniture, dental apparatus and clothing were valued at $1500, with no insurance. Max and Leopold Cohen lodged in another of the rooms in the upper story. Max saved his trunk, but Leopold was quite badly injured, being thrown to the ground by the explosion. He lost his clothing and $110 belonging to him were found intact among the ruins on Wednesday. The stock and fixtures of Duncanson's store were insured for $4800 in the insurance agency represented by Richard Melrose. The two buildings were owned by Mrs. Metz, who had failed to renew her policy of insurance, which lapsed a few months ago. The buildings were worth $3500. The other building was occupied as an office by the Western Union Telegraph company, and the operator Miss Minnie Hanna also lived there. The telegraph instruments and all of Miss Hanna's furniture was saved, but her clothes and some belonging to her mother were burned. The telegraph office will be located in the Anaheim hotel, Miss Hanna having secured rooms there on the day after the fire. A hose cart is something the firemen ought to be supplied with. In twenty minutes from the time the alarm was given the main steam pump was pouring water into the tank, and within half an hour the tanks was running over, notwithstanding the stream running through the hose. The pump can raise more water than can be used through three fire nozzles, so that no fears of scarcity of water at fires need be indulged in.
