House may be glad to know that he is now part owner in a Canadian newspaper, the Welland Telegraph. Browning Bros. have a fine lot of baled hay which they will sell in quantities to suit at the rate of $12 per ton at their ranch in Orangethorpe. An effort which promises to the successful is being made by Mr. D. S. Van Slyke to organize a Legion of Honor in Anaheim—a popular insurance organization. The water cases are being argued in Los Angeles before Judge McNealy of San Diego county. It is not probable that the case will be submitted before Tuesday or Wednesday of next week.

The Los Angeles Daily Times is the name of a new morning paper soon to be issued at the county seat. Its editor will be Nathan Cole, Jr., and the business department will be conducted by Mr. Thomas Gardiner. Only this month remains in which to pay taxes without having a percentage for delinquency added. The Bank of Anaheim collects the town taxes and will also attend to the payment of county taxes if requested. The city council of Los Angeles two weeks ago instructed the chief-of-police to enforce the Sunday law. Last week they reconsidered their action and the consideration of enforcing the law was indefinitely postponed. Mr. P. Pellegrin calls attention to the fine invoice of silverwear and jewelry which he has received for the holiday trade. These articles are of the most stylish description and before selecting your gifts you should examine this stock. Mr. G. H. Kellogg whose business with the people of this section has increased very materially during the year now has his office at 203 Sacramento St., San Francisco. He will promptly attend to all consignments sent him. Mr. Kellogg formerly lived in Anaheim. He is in the wholesale commission business. "The Life, speeches and public services of James A. Garfield" is the attractive title of a book for which Mr. A. Lassell is canvassing. It is printed in large type, contains several illustrations and is sold for the low price of $1.50 and $2 according to style of binding. Everyone should have a copy. The Santa Ana bank began business on Thursday, and at the close of the day the volume of business done was far in excess of any expectation which Mr. Seibert had formed. The bank starts out in its career under most auspicious circumstances and Mr. Seibert's knowledge of the business and personal worth insures its continued and increasing success. The Farmers Ditch company, organized for the purpose of bringing water into Orangethorpe district have finished their ditch and water has been running into it for several days. The Fairview ditch has also been put into good order, so that water irrigation will be practised on a grander scale this season than ever before. The Fairview gets its supply from the Anaheim Water company. The Anaheim Hotel was formally opened on Wednesday evening and the house was crowded with friends of Mr. Gwin, who came to give his enterprise a "sendoff". A most magnificent lunch The Farmers Ditch company, organized for the purpose of bringing water into Orangethorpe district have finished their ditch and water has been running into it for several days. The Fairview ditch has also been put into good order, so that water irrigation will be practised on a grander scale this season than ever before. The Fairview gets its supply from the Anaheim Water company. The Anaheim Hotel was formally opened on Wednesday evening and the house was crowded with friends of Mr. Gwin, who came to give his enterprise a "sendoff". A most magnificent lunch was spread for their entertainment to which full justice was done, and it was unanimously voted that the new hotel has a cook who is an artist in his profession. The band gave a serenade during the evening and mirth and jollity reigned supreme until the last guest departed. Two men who went up to the Santiago Gold and Silver company's mine the other day with a view to bidding for a contract to run a tunnel in the mine, found upon arriving at the locality that the house belonging to the company had been destroyed by fire, together with the tools and bedding contained in it. The fire was undoubtedly the work of an incendiary, as there was nothing of an inflamable nature in the house, and it was evident that the flames had been started inside the structure. A series of careful experiments are being made at the State University with a view to ascertain the essential qualities of the best grapes grown in California and to determine the conditions of temperature and treatment most favorable for the production of wine from given grapes. The wines are fermented at the University and the produce of the following kinds of grapes is being analyzed and treated, White and Golden Chasselas, Zinfandel, Mission, Black Prince, Fiherzogos, Matario and Le Noir. Further particulars of the sale of the Pacific Coast Steamship company to Villard, is to the effect that Goodall, Perkins & Co, held 9200 shares and bought 1300 more, thus obtaining a controlling interest, which they sold to Villard. The sale includes everything belonging to the company, not excepting the San Luis Obispo and Santa Maria Railroad, and including even the new steamship now being built for the company in the east, and on which the sum of $250,000 has been paid. The capitol stock of the company is $2,000,000. The directors, after the private sale of the controlling interest were notified that their stock would be bought at $85.50 a share, less a commission to Goodall, Perkins & Co; 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK DECEMBER 6, 1906 S. O. Walker has opened a real estate office in the Huntington building in Los Angeles. Hippolyte Cahen, formerly a well-known business man of this city, has been at his home in Los Angeles for some days past with an attack of nervous prostration. Fullerton high school defeated the local high school basketball team on the former's grounds last Saturday, by a score of 9 to7. Anaheim and Santa Ana high schools have a game on the basketball grounds at the high school on Saturday afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. R. H. Gilman were in town from Placentia on Tuesday. Mr. Gilman states his orange orchard is laden with a fine crop for the coming season as his trees ever produced, and he has grown many fancy crops since embarking in the orange business. The Home telephone company this week received a carload of new phones which will be placed in position during the present month. The company has a larger force of men engaged in installing its system here, and expects to be ready for business before the beginning of the new year. The cannery shut down operations this week after a very successful run. During the season 50 carloads of canned goods, mostly tomatoes were shipped, each car containing 30,000 pounds. This is twice last season's output and Manager Boyd says that next year he will double this season's record. Henry Knapke was in town on Saturday from Oxnard having come down from the sugar town to witness the Burns-O'Brien contest in Los Angeles the Wednesday evening previous. Henry is head machinist at the sugar mill with the years output of 600,000 bags of sugar more than 250,000 for lost years. The International Sunday School Lesson FOR NOVEMBER 29 PAUL'S LETTER TO PHILEMON Philemon 4-20 By REV. SAMUEL D. PRICE, D. D. This is the time you will surely read an entire book, and without asking "What chapter, please," as did a certain theologue when Prof. Purves indicated a verse for special study. Then you will need to make certain of the pronunciation, which is on the long "e." Onesimus is a slave who stole from his master Philemon, and then ran away. Finally he turned up in Rome and dropped in at one of Paul's meetings. Now Paul knew Philemon well and may even have recognized the slave. At least Onesimus was a totally different man following his conversion. Then he consulted with Paul about the right way to recompense Philemon, for he was still the chattel of the owner. Obviously, only one person could be the judge, but Paul made the approach easy by the gracious letter which he wrote and of which Onesimus, possibly with Tychicus, was the bearer. Art in letter writing is splendidly set forth in this letter. Some people just write bare facts in their letters and others make themselves vivid both in direct expression and as you read between the lines. It is a joy to get a letter from such a friend. Much is packed into the salutation. The family of Philemon is included in the greeting. The commendations will be pleasing to the received, and it must be kept in mind that Paul is writing for a purpose: to gain kindly treatment of runaway Onesimus. Slavery today is all but over in the world. There are obligations still with reference to enslaved humanity which rest on each one of us. The Golden Text is sweeping in its scope: "There can be neither bond nor free—for all are one man in Christ Jesus," Galatians, 3:28. How do you think Philemon received Onesimus? The cannery shut down operations this week after a very successful run. During the season 50 carloads of canned goods, mostly tomatoes were shipped, each car containing 30,000 pounds. This is twice last season's output and Manager Boyd says that next year he will double this season's record. Henry Knapke was in town on Saturday from Oxnard having come down from the sugar town to witness the Burns-O'Brien contest in Los Angeles the Wednesday evening previous. Henry is head machinist at the sugar mill with the years output of 600,000 bags of sugar, more than 250,000 bags in excess of last years. The season was the longest and most profitable in its history. Many acres yielded 30 tons of beets, running from 16 to 20 percent sugar. Domingo Bastenchury has given the Union Oil company a twenty year lease to a large tract of oil bearing land near Los Angeles where extensive oil boring operations will soon begin. Bastenchury receives $1000 a year, an eighth of the oil supply and one-sixteenth of the gas developed. The tract has not been prospected for oil, but it is believed to offer a rich field for development. Price of the lease is regarded as being low by oil men in the county. The Eagles met on Monday evening and elected the following officers to serve for the coming year: Frank Fox, president; Andy Fuhrberg, vice-president; Herman Stern, treasurer; W. Mason, secretary; N. B. Tedford, John Bauer, George Carroll, trustees. Joe Hessel, inside guard; Ben Bennersscheidt, outside guard; Wm. Branderberg, conductor. After election the members sat down to an elaborate turkey and wild duck dinner. The city band played music during the evening. The members and band later serenaded Mr. and Mrs. Yungbluth. Showers during the week bring the total rainfall for the season according to Mr. Dickels gauge to 1.52 inches. The precipitation is somewhat less than that of last year when the gauge showed 5.40 inches to the first of December. November 6th of last year 2.36 inches fell in the recent storm of the season. During December only .25 of an inch fell. In January 2.56, and in March 5.40. The season's fall amounted to 18.13 inches, and the year was one of the best in the history of the county. No early rains have fallen and all indications point to a wet year. Weather prohets say we shall have abundant rainfall. This community in common with other citrus towns in Southern California has been experiencing a wood and coal famine, and prices for these commodities are higher than at any previous time in years. Wood is scarce for the reason that there are no men to be had to chop down trees, and for the further fact that Pasadena, Long Beach, Los Angeles and other places have drained the valley of its available supply. An eucalyptus tree at the corner of North and Los Angeles streets recently chopped down yielded six cords while some time ago a 35 year old eucalypt tree on Olive street produced ten cords. Wm. Schumacher, while speaking an evening or two ago about prices for meats of all kinds, sighed for a return of the piping times of '76, when mutton could be purchased, owing to the dry year at from 25 to 50 cents per head, and a quarter of a dollar realized from the pelt Nowadays mutton costs him from Wm. Schumacher, while speaking an evening or two ago about prices for meats of all kinds, sighed for a return of the piping times of '76, when mutton could be purchased, owing to the dry year at from 25 to 50 cents per head, and a quarter of a dollar realized from the pelt. Nowadays mutton costs him from $5.50 to $7 per carcass, and he says the wholesaler threatens another advance before snow flies. Mr. Schumacher says the lot of the retail butcher is a strenuous one, but adds that he is retailing more meat now than ever before. Moreover he never sold a poor piece of meat since he has been in business. Mr. and Mrs. F. A. Yungbluth returned on Sunday evening from their honeymoon trip to Santa Barbara. On the occasion of their wedding on Wednesday afternoon of last week they eluded a merry party of rice-throwers by giving them the slip and going to Garden Grove in an automobile, taking an electric car at that point for Los Angeles. The guests being under the impression the newly-married couple would take the Southern Pacific train, proceeded to, that depot. Not finding them they boarded the train and went to Lavara expecting to find them there. Their plans being set at naught they showered rice upon several inoffending parties, to the merriment of a large crowd of onlookers. Luther Hungerford was in town on Friday from his ranch at Carmenita, accompanied by his wife and family. Eight years ago Luther and his brother Henry were much in the public eye as a result of the most sensational murder trials ever held in this county. The two were charged with the murder of James Gregg a rancher in the Santiago canyon. They admitted the killing but claimed at was done in self-defense. They each were found guilty of murder in the second degree, but Judge Ballard held they were either guilty of murder in the first degree or were innocent. The point of law turned upon the question whether the accused or Gregg began firing first in the fusilade which ended the latter's life. A sensation was caused when they were later set at liberty. Reports flew about that bribery had been practiced, but these were unfounded, yet the judge's action in the case cost him a renomination for the office. Luther subsequently went out of his head, but later regained his mind, and is now farming in Los Angeles county across the Orange county line. Henry some weeks ago left for Missouri.

The only one of these restrictions that can be applied to private gun clubs is the one that sets the opening of the season at 12 o'clock noon. If they so choose, members of private gun clubs can shoot every day of the season and remain within the confines of the law, division officials said. Daily shooting hours from one-half hour before sunrise to sunset and bag limits remain the same for all classes of shooters and these regulations will be strictly enforced in accordance with federal rulings and by the state warden patrol. Due to the seriousness of the duck shortage situation it is believed that members of private gun clubs will enact restrictions that will not only help conserve the duck supply in general but will also promote better shooting throughout the season. Contrary to belief in some sections, the federal government has not made any change in the seasonal regulations as announced earlier this year. The duck hunting season in California opened at 12 o'clock noon on November 16 and closes at sunset on December 15. Cattle to be Tested in Orange County The 10,000 cattle in Orange county are to be tested under the state bovine tuberculosis control law, the testing to begin at once under the direction of the State Department of Animal Industry. The testing in Orange county is a part of a state-wide program which will cover 20 counties and will be applied to approximately 200,000 head of cattle.
