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 JUNE 3, 1882 The Anaheim school closed yesterday after a ten months' term, with the usual examinations. In the principal's room the examination was mostly written and judging from the questions placed upon the board and the percentage obtained by most of the pupils we think they did well. A few pupils remained at home to avoid examinations, and others who had not attended regularly were unable to take part in the entire examination. The questions given to the highest class were those prepared by the old state board for the examination of teachers. There are some seven or eight young ladies and gentlemen in this class who will graduate next year. They compare favorably with pupils of a like grade in our city schools. The people of Anaheim may well be proud of their public school, but they should show their interest and appreciation by visiting the school now. Not many people would be willing to commit a colt to the best trainer without occasionally going to see how he was getting along under his master. Yet parents commit their children to a stranger and never once venture near to see how they are progressing, or to know anything of him into whose hands they have confided the education of their child. There will be eleven weeks of vacation, the next term commencing August 14th. There is one vacancy in the department to be filled before the opening of the next term. There will be a meeting in the Masonic building on next Monday evening at 8 o'clock for the purpose of electing officers and putting in motion all the various committees necessary to open the free reading room. The young men of the town are enthusiastic over the project, and they ask the presence of the older citizens to encourage and advise them. The scheme cannot be made fully successful without much encouragement and assistance, and it is to be hoped that it will not be withheld.

The scheme cannot be made fully successful without much encouragement and assistance, and it is to be hoped that it will not be withheld. There is a pressing need for some such institution here, where the evening hours may be spent in quiet and rational enjoyment. There is a painful rumor afloat to the effect that J. F. Dalton, wife, and children, former residents of Anaheim, but latterly of Wilcox A. T., have died under horrible circumstances. The story is that they were camping out in some mountain canyon and were seen by Indians. Dalton hid his wife and children in some shrubbery and then tried to escape, but was killed. The family were afterwards found dead in the brush, having evidently perished from starvation. We hope the story will turn out to be as groundless as the similar one in regard to Decker and Sparks, which gained currency a little over a year ago. A very severe accident befell Mr. H. L. Paty on Thursday of last week. He was unloading some heavy timbers from his wagon and while in the act of walking backward carrying one end of a timber, he stumbled and fell to the ground, a distance of about nine feet. His shock struck the edge of one of the timbers rendering him perfectly helpless. He has since been confined to his bed but is mending rapidly. The accident would without doubt have been a fatal one had he fallen more flatly on his back as the bone would have been broken. It is a question whether to congratulate our friend upon escaping so luckily or to condole with him for his misfortune. The Rev. Ingraham Kip, D. D. L. L. D., Bishop of the Diocese, accompanied by his wife arrived in town last night, as also the Rev S. Gregory Linis, Rector of St. Paul's church, San Francisco. The Bishop and his wife are stopping at the Planters hotel and Mr. Linis is at the Parsonage. We understand that the Rev. Mr. Loop of Pomona is expected today. Services at St. Michael's Episcopal church will begin at a quarter of eight in the evening. The Bishop will preach, and there will be a celebration of the Holy Communion. There was imported into New York, in 1881, 552 million oranges and lemons, equivalent to 2,760,000 boxes of 200 each, or 7,500 cars of ten tons capacity each, equalling the product of 2,760 orchards of twenty acres each in full bearing. These importations are made in spite of an import duty, and an average loss on the voyage of forty per cent of oranges and twenty per cent of lemons. Over ninety per cent of this fruit comes from the Mediterranean and the oranges are not to be compared with California fruit, most of it being small and sour selling in New York at 50 cents per hundred when West India and Florida oranges are bringing from $3 to $5—the latter being very similar to our Mission fruit. We need not worry about a market for all we are able to raise while the Northwest is filling up at the rate... anges and lemons, equivalent to 2,760,000 boxes of 200 each, or 7,500 cars of ten tons capacity each, equalling the product of 2,760 orchards of twenty acres each in full bearing.

We need not worry about a market for all we are able to raise, while the Northwest is filling up at the rate of a million inhabitants added every year. Mr. Abram Springer died very suddenly on Thursday evening, at his home in North Anaheim. He left his house to shut the chicken house door, and a few minutes after he was found by his son, lying dead on the ground. He had been ailing for some weeks and on Thursday complained of having severe pains. It is thought that apoplexy was the immediate cause of his death. The funeral will take place from the Episcopal church this morning at half past ten. By the burning of a bridge nine miles east of Yuma, a train was thrown from the track and fourteen cars caught fire from the embers of the burning bridge and were destroyed. Two of the train hands were severely injured. One of them named Greenleaf, is reported to have died. His parents live in Santa Ana. One would not suppose that agricultural machinery would be in great demand this year, but Mr. J. W. Lowe of Santa Ana has been doing a lively trade in such machinery—notably mowers. The Santa Ana Standard of last week had a fine report of the fruitgrowers meeting at Orange, at which insect pests and the best way to exterminate them was discussed. Messrs. F. A. Korn and D. W. C. Cowan are each candidates for the office of school trustee. The polls will be open at the school house today from one hour after sunrise until sunset. The enterprising people of Yorba District want a new school house on the north side of the river, and are to vote on the question of issuing bonds in the amount of $2000. Among our visitors during the week were Mr. Geo. F. McLellan of Los Angeles and Mr. C. Z. Culver of Washington, D. C. The latter gentleman is looking for a location and we hope to induce him to settle in Anaheim. 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK JUNE 6, 1907 It required but a few minutes for a meeting of citizens at the city hall on Wednesday evening to determine that a rousing celebration of the city's fiftieth anniversary should be held in September. Addresses were made by Richard Melrose, H. A. Dickel, F. A. Yungbluth, Wm. Schumacher, Prof. Walker, John Resh, Fred Ahlborn, Herman Stern, W. M. Wickett, Henry Adams and others. Pledges of financial assistance and cordial support were made and subscription list started. It was the consensus of opinion that $1500 could be raised for the event and this amount will probably be largely exceeded. Henry Adams former president of the celebration committee, resigned owing to a press of business engagements. After discussion Mr. Melrose was selected for the position and accepted the honor in a well-worded address which sent enthusiasm through every one present. Mr. Dickel spoke earnestly in support of the celebration, he being heartily in favor of it from the start. Mr. Resh suggested that the finance committee have a larger sub-committee and the president adopted the suggestion by appointing the following to assist Mr. Dickel in soliciting funds: Henry Adams, Capt. Stern, Edward Stewart, Wm. Schumacher, John Resh, Fred Chamberlain, Prof. Walker, Fred Yungbluth, Otto Storm, Max Nebelung, Godfrey Stock, Prof. Waldorf, Wm. Wickett and Jos. Fiscus. These gentlemen will make a canvas of the city for funds and it is hoped the subscriptions will be liberal. Word comes from Los Angeles that all the former Anaheimers residing in that city will attend the celebration. The city will be gaily decorated, one of the features of the celebration being the electrical display at night. A committee consisting of Floyd Lorbeer, president of the Southern California Debating League, and Miss Edith Jordan. Rural Children To Give Concert Musical Entertainment at Santa Ana Planned for Friday Evening, May 28 Rural school children of Orange county under the sponsorship of Supervisor of Music Irene Loose Schoepfle will present a concert at 8 o'clock Friday evening, May 27, at the Santa Ana high school auditorium. Members of the Orange county schools chorus were organized last fall and have met each month for practice; the purpose being to foster interest in music. Miss Schoepfle said. Marie Madison Daughter will direct the chorus, while Dodley Page Harper will accompany. The concert will include chorus numbers, songs by a boys' choir from Olive and Olinda schools, and a group of Spanish dances from a San Clemente school. "It has been the ambition of the county school department that every child in the Orange county schools be given the chance to develop his musical ability to the highest of his capacity. It is felt that if in this selected group of 250 voices there is the germ of a great artist, then it has been given the chance to develop and grow. Those who have had the advantage of being one small part of a large chorus have had, as a result, a finer appreciation and understanding of music," said Miss Schoepfle.

Mr. Firebaugh had resided in Orange county for thirty years. He leaves a widow and seven children. His son, Roy Firebaugh is a student in Anaheim high school from which he will graduate this month. He is one of the brightest young men in the class and was one of the debaters who won the championship from Pasadena a fortnight since. Fayette Lewis has taken a position with Yungbluth and Kroeger during his vacation from Berkeley, which will extend until the middle of August.

He is studying law and will devote six years to the task before him at the University. Mrs. Frank Borth was awarded the prize of $20 offered by Druggist Mullinix for the first correct sentence formed out of letters displayed one at a time in his show windows. The sentence read: "Take your prescriptions to O. A. Mullinix." Samuel Orarart was a close second, bringing in his sentence a few seconds after Mrs. Borth had been declared winner. Frank Tausch, Herman Schindler, Carl Pressel, Herman Backs, August Schumacher and Billy Kretschmer went to Santa Ana canyon on Sunday and enjoyed a Dutch pot. This is a dainty dish cooked in a pot buried under coals. In the pot are yellow legged chickens, potatoes and such delicacies as abound in the neighborhood. The savory compound is cooked forty minutes, when on opening the pot a feast is revealed fit for an Olympian monarch of the forest. The boys tell us they purchased the chickens of which there were an even dozen.

Select as many baking potatoes as there are persons to serve, and an equal number of pork sausages of the larger size. With an apple corer make a hole through the center of each potato, making the opening large enough to put a sausage through. Bake the potatoes the usual fifty minutes, if large, a shorter time, if smaller. This is an excellent luncheon dish. Will you need new curtains this spring, and does it seem utterly impossible to buy them? Have you ever used the material known as "theatrical gauze"? It is quite inexpensive. May be had in colors or natural shades. The colors costing a little more than the natural color. These curtains may be "drawn" easily and hemlitched and as they launder beautifully and may be used over and over again, they are the very cheapest material I know. Moreover, they look well enough for any room in the house. As spring approaches remember that moths love a soiled or dirty spot. Clean all blankets and woolen clothes before packing away for the summer. It costs no more to have these things cleaned in the spring than in the fall, and moreover there will not be the scramble to get them ready when the first cold snap makes its unheralded appearance. If the housekeeper is planning to have pie as the dinner dessert today, Betterment Cup Is Sought by Legions American Legion posts throughout the state are striving to complete their community betterment programs in order to qualify California for a James A.
