25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK
APRIL 30, 1908
One of the most charming events of the season was the musical given by the Apollo club at Odd Fellow's hall on Friday afternoon to celebrate the third anniversary of this popular musical organization. The first meeting of the club was held three years ago on the first Friday after Easter at the home of Misses Sophie and Marie Rimpau, who were the promoters of the club. As a musical organization it seeks to elevate the taste and inspire a love of the classical in its members. The hall was decorated in pepper boughs and roses while a number of ferns and other potted plants adorned the stage and corridor. About a hundred members of the club and invited guests were present and all joined in wishing for the club many more pleasant anniversaries. A beautiful classical program was rendered, the vocalist being Mrs. L. A. Boyer, well known singer of Los Angeles. The pianist, Miss Daniels, formerly of Fullerton, but now a resident of Hemet is very talented. She will go abroad in September to further pursue her musical studies.
Louis Kroeger and Miss Pauline Weinberger were married at the Catholic church on Tuesday morning at 8:30 o'clock. Father Dubble officiated and a large gathering of friends of the happy couple were present at the ceremony. Miss Rose Weinberger, sister of the bride, was maid of honor, and Miss Emma Backs acted as bridesmaid, Herman Schindler attended the groom. After the ceremony the newly wedded couple were recipients of hearty congratulations. The bride received many handsome wedding presents. After the ceremony an elaborate wedding breakfast was served at the family home of the bride on North Lemon street. Mr. and Mrs. Kroeger departed on the afternoon train for Osaki, Kansas, on their honeymoon trip. They will be absent until the middle of May, and on their return will take up their residence in this city.
George C. Hagar, for many years a highly respected resident of Miraflores, died at his home at that place on Wednesday afternoon of last week. Deceased had been in ill health for some time. Funeral services were held at the family home on Saturday.
George C. Hagar, for many years a highly respected resident of Miraflores, died at his home at that place on Wednesday afternoon of last week. Deceased had been in ill health for some time. Funeral services were held at the family home on Saturday morning. Rev. Hanna of Los Angeles officiated. The remains were taken to Los Angeles and cremated. John Hanna, father of Mrs. Hagar and Rev. Wrenn, a brother-in-law, accompanied the remains. Deceased was a native of Boston and had lived in California since 1877. He was in his fifty-third year. He leaves a widow and two sons, students at the high school to mourn his loss.
Billy Warner died suddenly at his residence on North Los Angeles street shortly after 11 o'clock on Tuesday evening. Two weeks ago while wrestling in his barn with Joe Wagner, he fell and broke both bones of the left leg above the angle. He was carried to his home and was apparently recovering, no foreseen complications arising. He was conversing with his wife, who was seated by his bedside, shortly before his death. There was no intimation of the approaching end, when the patient gasped for breath and lapsed into stupor. Dr. Johnston was immediately summoned, and pronounced the case one of heart disease. Efforts to resuscitate the dying man were unavailing, and he breathed his last without regaining consciousness. The funeral will be held this afternoon at 2 o'clock under the auspices of the Odd Fellows of which order deceased was a member.
Fayette Lewis won the third game for Berkeley in the series between U.C. and Stanford at Berkeley on Saturday. Each side had won a game and were playing the deciding game when Lewis' hit in the eleventh made things blue for the Cardinal. The score stood 1 to 1 at the end of the eleventh, with two out, two men on bases and Lewis at the bat. He smashed the first ball pitched for a double into deep right and the winning run scampered home. Lewis owned the town that night.
Mrs. G.L. Deitrich entertained the Miercoles club at progressive euchre at her home on Philadelphia street on Wednesday afternoon last. The house was decorated with national colors and flowers, and the score cards were hand painted battleships in miniature. The first prize, a cut glass dish was won by Mrs. McLaughlin, the second, a silver jelly server, was won by Mrs. F.A.Backs sr., and the consolation, a silver hatpin by Mrs.A.Nagel. The club will be guests of Miss Mattie Yorba at its next meeting.
Mr. and Mrs.Jas.Dausen were enjoyably surprised by their many friends on Sunday afternoon and evening, the occasion being the fortyieth anniversary of their wedding.

50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK
APRIL 28, 1883
The rather sluggish demand for wines at the present time is evoking much comment, and many dismal forebodings are indulged in as to the market for wine when all the vineyards planted of late years shall have come to maturity. The causes of the present temporary depression, however, give no reason for apprehension regarding the future. M. E. Dreyfus, who certainly is an authority on this subject, explains the non-demand for wines in this way: "The failure of congress to pass the bill allowing whiskey to remain in bond two years longer makes compulsory the payment of the revenue tax on the whiskey which has been stored for three years. This payment will take from the trade millions of dollars, and dealers in liquors, who under ordinary circumstances would at this time be brisk buyers of wines, have now use for their money in paying the tax, and buy as little wine as it is possible for them to get along with." Again, in consequence of this forced payment of tax, whiskey is offered by many holders at a very low rate, and every dealer who has spare cash is investing in whiskey to the exclusion of wine. It will thus be seen that the causes for the present depression are purely temporary, and the stagnation of the trade is not due to any glut in the market or cessation of demand for pure California wines.
In the supreme court on Wednesday in the case of the S. A. V. I. Co. vs. the Anaheim Water company, the court refused to dismiss the appeal of the Cajon Irrigation company, after hearing arguments by Hupp for respondent and Stephens for appellant.

TODAY AND TOMORROW
By Frank Parker Stockbridge
NATIONALISM
A lot of the world's present troubles are due to an excess of Nationalism pride. Every nation is trying to be so contained, and then grouching because other nations won't trade with it.
Every dollar we spend for foreign goods helps some other nation to buy our goods. I believe in America first but I do not believe in the stupid doctrine which would prohibit me from buying something I wanted because it was made abroad.
Nearly a hundred years ago there was an agitation in this country similar to the "Buy American" movement of today. The party which advocated non-intercourse with foreign countries got the nick-name of 'Know-Nothing'. Presently we will wake up again to truth that every obstacle to international trade hurts everybody concerned.
JEWS
Jewish people all over the world are greatly disturbed over the policy of the new "Nazi" government of Germany under the practical dictatorship of Chancellor Hitler. In boycotting Jewish merchants, doctors, teachers and others.
I talked the other day with an intelligent young German Jew who had been getting letters from home about the situation in Germany. He was not at all worried. His people had written him that they were not being annoyed and that the whole anti-Jewish agitation was directed at a Communist element, mainly composed of Jews.
Another German, a non-Jew, said time: "Here in America the Jews work like other people. In Germany a lot of them don't do anything but try to make trouble for the Government."
But, of course, the German government has handled the situation stupidly.

Dobner; Treasurer, John Neipp; Clerk, A. W. Steinhart; Assessor, H. C. Gade; Marshal, R. Bohn; Justice of the Peace, F. Rhuemann.

Landell, who sings "Honey Don't You Cry," "Wait Till the Clouds Roll By"; Chaun Higgins, "Pickin' On De Harp"; W. Landell, D. Hudson, J. Hodges and others will sing popular songs.

We had the pleasure yesterday of meeting Messrs. Bower and Chandler, who report that they have discovered a fine prospect for oil about eight miles northeast of Anaheim. If they carry out their plans of development as they contemplate, it will benefit our town immensely. Messrs. Bower and Chandler are energetic enterprising young men.
The vines are advanced enough to enable experts to form an opinion regarding the prospective yield of grapes. Assuming that there will be no damage to the crop from blight on the elements, the crop will be as large as was ever harvested. The grapes have set "double" which is a sure indication of a large yield.
Mr. Dietzel, the new proprietor of the Anaheim hotel, is more than pleased with the patronage which has been accorded to him since he opened that house. He is proving himself a thorough hotel keeper, and is keeping the house in first-class style.
Mr. Jonothan Watson lost another child on Friday of last week from diphtheria. This is the fifth child he has lost within the past few weeks from the same cause. There have been several other cases in Upper Santa Ana but of a less malignant type.
MACHINES...can't think
When these hard times are over—and that won't be long now—we shall not go backward but forward. And one thing we may look for is more and more perfection of machines to do our work for us.
When I was a boy I used to admire the muscular development of the men who worked in my uncle's machine shop. Not long ago I visited the same plant, now tremendously changed, and found one of those old-timers still working.
He was sitting in a rocking-chair watching an automatic machine do almost exactly the same sort of work he used to do by hand, only many times as rapidly and accurately. Every once in a while he would take a finished piece off the machine and put a new block of metal in its place.
"They say the machines will throw everybody out of work," he said."But I notice it still takes a human brain to tell the machine when to stop and start." That is something people overlook.Nobody has yet made a machine that can think, and nobody ever will.TELEPHONE...another step
Everybody who has a telephone must have wished for some sort of an attachment which would answer automatically when the subscriber is away.
Word comes from Victoria that just such a device has been invented and is in use there. When one is going to be out of telephone reach he sets the implement to the hour when he expects to be back. Then, if a call comes through in his absence the caller hears a gong ring to indicate the hour when the person called will return. When he returns he finds a record of all calls.
It will be easy to develop that idea into a phonograph record which would say "Mr. Smith has gone to Florida but will be back on the fifteenth," or whatever other message it is desired to convey.
Something of that sort will come some day.
Mr. Dietzel, the new proprietor of the Anaheim hotel, is more than pleased with the patronage which has been accorded to him since he opened that house. He is proving himself a thorough hotel keeper, and is keeping the house in first-class style.
Mr. Jonothan Watson lost another child on Friday of last week from diphtheria. This is the fifth child he has lost within the past few weeks from the same cause. There have been several other cases in Upper Santa Ana but of a less malignant type.
The chairman of the Academy of Sciences in San Francisco has tasted an ostrich egg laid at Woodward’s Gardens by one of the Anaheim ostrichs. The egg was converted into an omelette and was pronounced to be "the most delicately flavored egg that one could eat." It ought to be, considering the price...The eggshell measured 14¾ inches around its longest circumference and held a quart of water. By actual measurement the contents were found to be equal to twenty-one ordinary hen eggs.
The three children of John Bush of Upper Santa Ana have been ill with diphtheria, but are recovering. They have been receiving medical care from Dr. Ellis.
Mr. Frank Rimpau arrived from Tucson last Friday and went up to San Francisco a few days ago to attend a course of medical lectures.
We acknowledge a call from Messrs Culver and Caldwell of Orange. They have recently completed the planting of an extensive vineyard.
Mr. R. J. Northam reports the sale of 20 acres in North Anaheim to J. Des Granges at $60 per acre.
Col. Goulding, the noted temperance lecturer will address the people of Anaheim on next Thursday evening.
The sale of 80 acres in Westminster owned by J. T. Stewart to George Johnston is reported. The price paid was $1400.
The stockholders of the North Anaheim Canal company will convene in general meeting on May 12.

"Probation After Death" Is Sermon
Christ Jesus' words. "He that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved," constitute the Golden Text in the Lesson-Sermon on "Probation after Death" on Sunday in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, branches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass.
Among the Scriptural citations in the Lesson-Sermon are Paul's words to the Corinthians: "Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. . . . For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written. Death is swallowed up in victory."
One of the passages from "Science and health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, says, "Heaven is not a locality, but a divine state of Mind in which all the manifestations of Mind are harmonious and immortal, because sin is not there and man is found having no righteousness of his own, but in possession of 'the mind of the Lord,' as the Scripture says."
Stockton Courts "Blind Justice"
