IN THE DAYS OF Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter of an Authentic History in Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim and 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK AUGUST 29, 1907 Lovers of baseball will have an opportunity of witnessing a winter schedule of games in this city, beginning early in October. J. E. Stewart has been granted a franchise and is now negotiating for new grounds. The league will include Los Angeles nines, as well as nines in Pasadena, Santa Barbara, San Bernardino and other live towns in Southern California. Walter Johnson will pitch for the locals. He will return from Washington next month, after the close of the season. Johnson is probably the most celebrated ball player in the east. He has been pitching great ball. He is with a tail-end club, and although Johnson has pitched gilt-edged ball, his team clings to the hindmost place. Meats has returned and will catch Johnson. All the other favorites are looked for, viz: Mott, Head, Isbell, Elwell, Crips, Fuqua and possibly Jack Burnett. Stewart will himself appear at all games, and his foghorn voice, "He missed it; He missed it!" will be a feature of the games. Seats reserved in grand stand for ladies. Peanuts and red lemonade. All invited. Juan Orosco, as brave an officer of the law as ever wore a star or leveled a gun, was foully slain at Los Alamitos on Sunday night by a cholo going by the name of Borrego. Orosco had arrested Borrego who was causing a riot at a fandango by enacting the role of a bad man. As he was walking out of the dancehall with his prisoner, Barrego who was walking ahead of him turned suddenly and fired a bullet through Orosco's heart. Juan Orosco was one of the best known officers in Orange county. His life had been threatened many times and Alamitos people believe a plot existed to kill him. He was respected throughout the state for his deeds of daring, his unflinching bravery, his courage under all conditions. A brave man has passed on. He will not soon be forgotten. Joseph Helmsen had the misfortune at Newport Beach on Sunday afternoon to break both bones in the right wrist while engaged Borrego who was causing a riot at a fandango by enacting the role of a bad man. As he was walking out of the dancehall with his prisoner, Barrego who was walking ahead of him turned suddenly and fired a bullet through Orosco's heart. Juan Orosco was one of the best known officers in Orange county. His life had been threatened many times and Alamitos people believe a plot existed to kill him. He was respected throughout the state for his deeds of daring, his unflinching bravery, his courage under all conditions. A brave man has passed on. He will not soon be forgotten. Joseph Helmsen had the misfortune at Newport Beach on Sunday afternoon to break both bones in the right wrist while engaged in cranking his automobile for the return trip. While endeavoring to start the engine at the hill this side of the beach, after changing the gear, his wrist was struck by the crank and the bones fractured. The car was driven home by one of the party. Arriving at home Dr. Johnston was called. The fracture was reduced and the patient is getting along as well as could be expected. Frank Mayers left on Sunday afternoon for Stanford University to enter his junior year at the university. He is a student in the law college, and will endeavor to get upon the varsity football team. During his visit here he was popular with the kids making one of them a kite, he was followed about by a gang of youngsters who regarded him as the best chap who ever came down the pike. A band of forty Yuma Indians who have been at work in the beet fields at Los Alamitos for some time past, boarded the Southern Pacific train at Loara on Tuesday for their home in the fastnesses of the Arizona wilds. One of the bucks seemed to be very much under the influence of civilization. C. O. Rust is preparing for the wine-making season, and will probably began crushing grapes the middle of September. Other wine-makers who will also start operations next month are: Tim Boege, J. Cassou and Fischer Bros. The quality of grapes is said to be superior to that of several years past and the yield good. The city trustees met on Tuesday evening and fixed the property tax levy for the year 1907-08 at $1.65 on the $100 valuation. This is an increase of 40 cents over last year's rate. The increased resources are for more extensive street improvements and the library rate is higher to meet the increased appropriation of $15,000, expended for the Carnegie library. Mayor Rust presided and Trustees Stock, Fiscus and Kroeger were present. A resolution of intention to widen Los Angeles street north from Sycamore and south from Santa Ana street to conform to the width of the rest of Los Angeles street was introduced. Building permits were issued to P. Weber for a $1000 dwelling on Adele street, Elizabeth Brett, $1200 dwelling on Adele street, W. A. Floo $2000 dwelling on Broadway, O. L. Thompson $100 addition to house on Philadelphia. Elton Goble and Harold Cordes made a trip to Santiago canyon on their wheels on Sunday.

Ford was in the city the first of the week from his ranch south of town. Mr. Ford has had a surfeit of illness in his family lately. His wife has been quite seriously ill for several weeks past but is convalescing. His two sons were also quite ill with fever, but have recovered. The Santa Ana trustees, sitting as a board of equalization this week made horizontal raises in the assessment of the Southern Pacific, Santa Fe and Pacific Electric companies. One piece of Santa Fe realty was raised from $3240 to $13,500 and the side tracks were rated $4500 a mile. Southern Pacific real estate was raised about $16,000. The Pacific Electric tracks were placed at $4500 a mile for single track and $7500 for double tracfl. The infant child of Wm. Gebert living on South Olive street died of whooping cough and lung fever on Monday. The remains were interred on Tuesday.

Brandenberg has been promoted and assigned to a position in Los Angeles with the Standard Oil company. Mrs. R. C. Douglas and daughter, Miss Margery of South Pasadena, were guests of Dr. and Mrs. Beebe during the week. Prof. Waldorf has sold his residence on Philadelphia street to Geo. L. Deitrich. Consideration $2100, 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK AUGUST 26, 1882 One of the burning, pressing needs of this community is a fruit drying and canning establishment. The experience of the fruit growers the present season has convinced them that they must find a home market for their fruit. The methods of the Los Angeles cannery have not been satisfactory which is not to be wondered at since they are entirely unable to care for all the fruit offered. Now is the time for the fruit growers to start proceedings in order to have in operation a cannery next summer. When the Anaheim Alden dryer was burned some years ago, it was just beginning to pay handsomely although the proprietors had difficulty in getting enough raw material to keep the works going. No such difficulty would be experienced now. It is estimated that a cannery plant would cost $10,000. That is a great deal of money and ought to start a very fair establishment. But are there not one hundred fruit growers and others interested in and about Anaheim who will give $100 each for such a purpose? We think there are and to test the matter the Gazette hereby subscribes $100 towards the establishment of a fruit cannery and dryer in Anaheim. Let the matter now be pushed by those whose financial interest in the project is greater than ours and the other ninety and nine one hundred dollar subscriptions will soon be obtained. The Anaheim correspondent of the Los Angeles Times says: "One of the finest fields of corn we have ever seen is that of Mr. Delos Morton, west of town. It contains five acres and is half of the white prolific and half of the large yellow varieties. The land has had but one irrigation, and that last winter before seeding. The corn is planted between cuttings. In thinning out the corn, Mr. Morton thinks he cut about ten tons of fodder from the five acres. The field stands now from twelve to fifteen feet high and not a stalk of the prolific corn has less than three ears on it and many bear four, five and six. The yellow does not bear so many Pomona Fair Will Feature Variety To have on display a sample of every variety of fruit and vegetable grown in the civilized world is the ambitious goal set for the Olympic year showing of Los Angeles county fair in Pomona September 16 to 25, according to J. M. Paige, veteran superintendent of this department of the big exposition. Greatly enlarged space and added facilities, coming as the result of the erection of the huge newly combined grandstand and exhibit hall, make possible the augmented program Fair officials believe that as Los Angeles county fair is representative of one of the richest agricultural and horticultural sections in the world, its display in the exposition should be so outstanding as to attract both national and international attention. Horticultural inspectors, farm bureau heads, and special representatives are scouring the southland in search of exhibits. Special stress this year, according to Mr. Paige, will be laid on the plate display for here is afforded an opportunity for the great mass of exhibitors with small quantities of the rarer fruits, vegetables nuts and grains to enter the competition and display their accomplishments. The elaborate rack displays featuring citrus fruits in particular, will be shown on a larger and more colorful scale than ever before. They will be presented before a Persian motif which is the theme for the decorations this year. New and novel designs are being worked out and the amount of space will be greatly enlarged. Livestock Owners Warned of Fakes Beware the slick salesman or the trick advertisement offering "Soft Coal Solvant for Suffering Swine," "Dr. Punk's Pink Pellets for Pale Percherons," or any other such livestock nostrums. This warning is given the stock and dairymen of California by the state department of agriculture, which says The Anaheim correspondent of the Los Angeles Times says: "One of the finest fields of corn we have ever seen is that of Mr. Delos Morton, west of town. It contains five acres and is half of the white prolific and half of the large yellow varieties. The land has had but one irrigation, and that last winter before seeding.

The field stands now from twelve to fifteen feet high and not a stalk of the prolific corn has less than three ears on it and many bear four, five and six. The yellow does not bear so many ears but they are of immense size. The Riverside Press says that Mr. James Bettner of that place sent to their office four Early Crawford peaches, one of which weighed 11½ ounces and was 10 x 10½ inches in circumference. The four weighed 38 ounces, or an average of 9½ ounces each. If the Press editor will hurry up and come down to Anaheim he can see in our sanctum four peaches decidedly larger and fairer than those of which he boasts. The "big four" were grown in Leonard Parker's Anaheim orchard and weigh 11¼, 12, 10 and 11 ounces respectively—a total of 44¼ ounces. The two largest measured 12 and 11½ inches in circumference. They are ahead of anything in the peach line which has been brought in this season. Mr. R. W. Chilson, a few days ago, sold his interest in the Black Swan copper mine near Casa Grande A. T. for $5,000. He has another of his numerous mining claims in that territory bonded to parties for a large sum and receives $1000 per month for the privilege of prospecting and developing the same. It is contemplated to make extensive improvements on the Chilson place in North Anaheim the coming season—constructing a commodious barn, putting up a new mill, setting out 30 acres to vines and enclosing the whole place in a rabbit proof fence. Seventy-eight votes were cast at the Republican primary election in Anaheim last Saturday with the following result: Stackpole, 52; Mitchell, 26. As the polls were not opened at Westminster and Fountain Valley, the above vote elected Mr. Stackpole delegate to the State convention. The delegates elected in the various precincts of the county were: Los Angeles: G. Wiley Wells, John M. Thomas, J. E. Hollenbeck, Cyrus Lyon, Frank A. Gibson and J. S. Clauson; Anaheim: J. E. Stackpole; Cienega: Iver A. Weid; Compton: Colonel Mudge; Downey: Judge Eb Williams; El Monte: A tie vote, Geo. H. Peck, Mr. Emerson; Orange: J. W. Anderson; Pasadena: J. F. Crank; Santa Ana: Ira Chandler; San Fernando: Charles Maclay; Wilmington, P. Banning. Dr. Ellis was called hastily to Anaheim Landing on Thursday to the relief of Theodore Lynill, Esq., who has been stopping there for a few days. In arising from his bed on Thursday morning he in some way twisted the tendons of his knee, rendering the limb perfectly helpless and giving intense pain. The doctor describe it as being a sprain of the worst kind, but no permanent injury likely to result therefrom. An investigation into the affairs of the Santa Ana Bank shows that the outlook for depositors is not so alarming as at first reported. It is thought by those who are in a position to know...

An investigation into the affairs of the Santa Ana Bank shows that the outlook for depositors is not so alarming as at first reported. It is thought by those who are in a position to know, that at least 75 cents on the dollar will be paid, and probably more. The money is principally in real estate which is thought to have increased in value since it was purchased. Chris Callian was arrested on Monday for making an assault with a deadly weapon on Frank Tyler. He was charged next morning with battery and with carrying concealed weapons. He pleaded guilty and was fined $30 for the first offense and $20 for the second. The San Gabriel mines are yielding a very rich class of ores. The specimens now on exhibition in this city from the Kelsee mine will run very high in silver and it is said that the mine is very rich in this high grade ore. This mine was bonded some time ago by S. A. Tuttle and General Superintendent Fillmore of the railroad and Ed Dunham of the Pico House. Mr. Tuttle has gone out to the mine to make arrangements to work it on an extensive scale. There can be no doubt that there are as rich ledges in the San Gabriel mountains as have been found anywhere. Sam Shrewsbury is now burning lime at his place in Santiago canyon and finds a ready sale for the article. He has two grades of lime which sells for $1 and $1.25 per barrel. The County Central committee of the Greenback party met in Los Angeles last Saturday in Good Templars hall. Fifteen were present. Will W. Gould resigned as chairman and Isaac Kinley was elected. S. A. Waldron was elected-permanent secretary. A mass convention of the Greenback Labor party will meet in Good Templars hall September 2, to appoint delegates to the state convention which will meet in San Francisco September 6th. Mr. Harry R. Hanna, a former valued attache of the Gazette, came in from Arizona on Monday on a visit to his parents. The fates have been kind to him since he left here two years ago, and he is one of the few for whom Arizona has attractions. He will remain here for some weeks, Senator in Kitchen Mrs. Hattie Caraway, U. S. Senator from Arkansas, home from Washington, hopped right to her kitchen to mix a batch of candy, as she likes it. Up for reelection, she is to have help from Sen. Huey P. Long, self styled "Kingfish" of Louisiana. SAVED WHO? Thomas Mathews, of Columbus, O., was walking along the banks of the Clio river when he heard cries. He looked and saw a small girl floundering in water over her head. Mathews dived into the water and rescued her. Looking out again, he found a small boy submerged about 18 inches below the water. Again he dived in and rescued the child. After it was all over he found that he hadn't even stopped to find out the names of the children. Dr. J. C.
