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 NOVEMBER 24, 1883 There was at one time a town ordinance which imposed a penalty for driving sheep, cattle or horses through the streets within the corporate limits, but in the last revision of the ordinances this particular one was omitted probably unintentionally. It is safe to say that no band of sheep can be driven through the streets without some of the aligning vineyards suffering damage from them, and while it is true that the victims have a remedy in a proceeding under the state law against the owner of the sheep, it is also true that such action is unpleasant and repulsive to many men, who would rather submit to be injured than take the prescribed method of obtaining reparation. In return for the municipal taxes which the vineyardists pay, they ask that the duty of protecting their property against such invasions devolves upon the proper officer, and we are asked to urge upon the trustees the propriety of re-enacting the ordinance before referred to. The vineyard of Mr. Wilkins was badly damaged by sheep last Saturday. The Trustees of St. Michael's church have the following: Gentlemen: I hereby announce to you that I have resigned to the Bishop the charge of this church which I have held for something over three years and a half. It has been a period of depression — many families have moved away, but I trust others will come in to take their places. I believe that in the near future there will be a large immigration here, and I hope that you and all the members of the Mission will do all in your power to support my successor, to keep up the services, to build up the church in this place. Thanking you personally for the assistance you have given me, and with earnest prayers to the Great Head of the church that he will in all things bless and protect this portion of his flock. I am faithfully yours, John A. Emery. No action has yet been taken upon the resignation. Mr. Emery has under consideration several calls which have been pression — many families have moved away, but I trust others will come in to take their places. I believe that in the near future there will be a large immigration here, and I hope that you and all the members of the Mission will do all in your power to support my successor, to keep up the services, to build up the church in this place. Thanking you personally for the assistance you have given me, and with earnest prayers to the Great Head of the church that he will in all things bless and protect this portion of his flock. I am faithfully yours, John A. Emery. No action has yet been taken upon the resignation. Mr. Emery has under consideration several calls which have been extended him. His departure from Anaheim will be greatly regretted. The well known Marengo Rancho in the San Gabriel valley, changed hands yesterday for $100,000. It was transferred from the Land and Loan company to Mr. Burke, and by Burke to H. D. Bacon at the same price and mortgaged to Charles Crocker at the same time for $80,000 at nine per cent for two years. It is understood that the rancho will be subdivided and sold in parcels, while some very important public improvements will be made upon the property. Mr. H. C. Kellogg returned to town a few days ago, and is again prepared to attend to all orders for surveying. For the past two months he has had entire charge of the subdivision of 5000 acres of land on the Laguna rancho, 93 miles from San Diego on the C. S. R. R. The tract has been surveyed into small farm lots and a town site, to which the name "Elsinore" has been given. Water for irrigation has yet to be developed by tunneling. Mrs. Hughes and her daughter, Mrs. Josephine Butler, left for Philadelphia on Monday. Sorrow for their departure is not confined to the Landell household or among their other relatives, for they have a wide circle of friends who hope they will abandon their intention of remaining permanently in the East. The Kraemer Bros have put some more of their land on the market, ranging from $50 to $65 per acre. Anyone wishing to see that plot can do so by calling upon Kraemer Bros, at the ranch or Hudson & Co., real estate agents, Anaheim. These are fine lands and easy payments—one third down, balance in time at 10 per cent. The death of Henry Finck on Wednesday had been expected for some time. He has been ailing ever since his return from Europe and the disease to which he finally succumbed gradually and steadily asserted itself. Mr. Finck was a popular man of kindly impulses and straightforward character, he was a native of Germany and was aged 61 years. The surveyors are busy setting the grade stakes along the line of the Los Angeles and San Gabriel Valley railroad, the new line narrow gauge. By the first of December grading will begin and in the early spring the neighing of the iron horse will startle the echoes around Pasadena. The Herald (Los Angeles) says that below the city about six miles from the courthouse, where the water is near the surface, there have been several white frosts during the present week, while in the city it has been rainy all day.

At the Washington Market a specialty is made of head cheese, bologna sausages and other delicacies. By giving your order to the driver of the delivery wagon you will be promptly supplied with whatever you require. A meeting of stockholders in the Cemetery association will be held this afternoon to reorganize the board of directors. All owners of lots in the cemetery are stockholders in the association. Master Eddie Leonard had his right arm broken Wednesday by falling from a pony on which his was riding. The little man bears his sufferings bravely, and will, we hope, be all right in a few weeks. A ball was given at Kroeger's hall last evening, under the management of the young men of the town. As this paper went to press before the event, a report is impossible. Our former townsman D. E. Miles has received the nomination for councilman from the Fourth Ward, Los Angeles. Mr. Miles was at one time an able bodied member of Anaheim town trustees. In getting on the cars at Anaheim depot on Monday morning C. H. Arthur sprained his ankle so severely that it will be many weeks before he can walk unaided. The directors of the Santiago Gold and Silver Mining company have decided to do some necessary work on their mine, of which they still have great expectations. The farmers ditch company of Orangethorpe have finished cleaning and strengthening their ditch, and winter irrigation in that district will begin in a few days. S OF LONG AGO The chamber of commerce met on Monday evening with Messrs. Wickett, Enfield, Thomas, Rose and Schumacher present. Mr. Thomas, reporting for the committee appointed to interview the city trustees as to street paving, said the committee had met Trustees Fiscus and Gates. It was agreed that a paving district should be formed, extending back two blocks from streets paved, and that property in this district pay ten per cent toward the cost of paving. Property owners fronting streets paved will be assessed 50 per cent of the cost. The paving area agreed upon extends from Santa Ana street to Svcamore on Los Angeles and from Olive street to Palm on Center. A district extending back two blocks from these thoroughfares has been mapped out and the matter is now up to the city trustees to start proceeding necessary beginning the work. Impressive ceremonies marked the laying of the cornerstone at the Carnegie Library by the Masonic Grand Lodge on Saturday afternoon. Grand Master Oscar Lawler of Los Angeles accompanied by other officials were present. A large crowd gathered at 3 o'clock at the library building at the corner of Broadway and Los Angeles streets. Richard Melrose delivered the address of welcome. After the ceremonies Rev. Moore delivered the benediction and the large audience dispersed. Woodmen of the World on Thursday evening elected the following officers to serve for the ensuing years: W. B. Parrett, council commander; C. O. Sayer, advisor, lieutenant; L. Z. Kroeger, banker; Jos. M. Backs jr., clerk; Elmer Imus, escort; Ray Byland, watchman; W. W. Scott jr., sentry; J. F. Ahlborn, J. H. Clabaugh and B. V. Beebe, board of managers. An oyster supper followed the election. The council is in flourishing condition with its membership role numbering 105. Double-Bar Cross First Used 300 A.D. By The Patriarchs Interesting History of Symbol of Christmas Seal Told Through Centuries The history of the double-barred cross, which is now the emblem of the world-wide tuberculosis movement, goes away back to about 300 years after the time of Christ. In those days Palestine was a part of what was called the Eastern Roman empire. The heads of the Christian church at Jerusalem and Constantinople, who were known as patriarchs, adopted as their emblem a cross with two horizontal bars. Later all this region passed into the hands of the Mohammedans. In the eleventh century the Christian nations such as France and England organized expeditions known as "The Crusades" to recover the Holy Land from the Mohammedans. One of the Crusades was led by Godfrey, Duke of Lorraine. When he fought his way through to Jerusalem he saw the double-barred cross. He liked it and adopted it as his emblem. The shape was changed a little, the lower bar being slipped down, and in this form it was adopted by the descendants of Godfrey as the standard of the house of Lorraine, receiving the name of the Lorraine Cross. During the World war one of the divisions of the American Army which was quartered in that part of France took the Lorraine Cross as its insignia. In 1906 the National Tuberculosis association adopted the double-barred cross as the symbol of the campaign against tuberculosis. In 1913, finding that some people drew the cross one way and some another, the National Tuberculosis association set up certain rules so that all tuberculosis crosses would be exactly alike. Accordingly the standard proportions for making the cross now are: The upright bar and the two horizontal bars are the same width. This width is Woodmen of the World on Thursday evening elected the following officers to serve for the ensuing years: W. B. Parrett, council commander; C. O. Sayer, advisor, lieutenant; L. Z. Kroeger, banker; Jos. M. Backs jr., clerk; Elmer Imus, escort; Ray Byland, watchman; W. W. Scott jr., sentry; J. F. Ahlborn, J. H. Clabaugh and B. V. Beebe, board of managers. An oyster supper followed the election. The council is in flourishing condition with its membership role numbering 105. Thirty hundredths of an inch of rain fell on Sunday night and Monday, according to Mr. Dickel's gauge. A west wind sprang up Monday night and blew during Tuesday morning dispersing the clouds. Total rainfall for the season 2.21 inches, last season to date one inch. Tuesday was the first disagreeable day of the year. A raw nor'wester blew during portions of the day, making it unpleasant. These disagreeable days are so few and far between in Southern California that they are a novelty, and as such we write about them. Yesterday the air was again balmy being a neverending delight. Neill Bailey was elected again to the Arizona legislature from Cochise county by a substantial majority over his republican opponent. Neill was speaker of the last territorial assembly. He was active in passing a law through the legislature prohibiting gambling and incurred the enmity of tinhorns in his county. He formerly resided here and his victory in face of an active opposition of the sporting fraternity is hailed with delight. An incident of Saturday afternoon was the wheeling by Welborn Wallop of W. M. Rose on Center street from Clementine street to the city hall. The ride was the result of an election bet, Rose betting on Taft and Wallop on Bryan. A crowd of amused spectators followed the wheelbarrow and humorous references were made to the affair. Wallop was ready on conclusion of the performance to pay another debt of a similar nature, but the winner was unable to take the ride owing to the cornerstone exercises at the library. The festivities may occur Saturday next. R. Schellens has made notable improvements at the Mission Ice Cream and Candy Store, and has installed a soda fountain of handsome pattern. Mr. Schellens caters to the most fastidious tastes and his creams, candies and soda are the purest and best on the market. For the delectation of his customers he will add a line of tamales which are to be the real thing. The Apollo club met at the home of Mrs. Vossbeck on Friday afternoon, November 20.

Artificial Light Benefit Unproven While artificial high or low production hens may be profitable, there is a doubt whether or not it pays. This is the opinion of W. E. Newlon, poultry specialist, who says no definite conclusion as to artificial light for the laying flock, has been reached. In a recent experiment conducted in the middle west, it was found that while artificial lights increased winter production, the total annual production was not increased. The hens used were low producers, and as a consequence the experiment did not determine whether lights are profitable with hens averaging from 150 to 175 eggs a year. "Further tests are needed," he says, "to show whether higher producing hens are benefitted by lights, and if so, what extent the total annual net income is increased through such a practice." A greater total annual production is not to be expected from the use of lights, but in some flocks greater fall and winter production may result."

Robert McAuley and Raymond Nebelung covering themselves and Anaheim high with glory. Elton Goble as vice-president of the league introduced the speakers and presided at the debate. Cyril Tipton as yell leader and Miss Lilly Zeus as song leader are entitled to honor in their respective lines. Miss Kathryn Hayden favored the audience with a vocal selection. The decision was unanimous on all points — argument delivery and diction. Members of the Orange county rural delivery mail carriers met at the home of Mr. Hollingsworth on Tuesday evening. Ten rural carriers were present, and business of a routine nature was transacted. An oyster supper was spread by Mr. and Mrs. Hollingsworth at conclusion of the business session, to which ample justice was done by those present. Associated walnut growers have disposed of 75 per cent of this season's crop at 12½ cents, the price agreed upon at the beginning of the season, and expect to move the remainder before the holidays. Joseph Litten who has been seriously ill for some weeks past with heart trouble and a complication of internal disorders is improving and will soon be out again. Miss Carrie E. Roberts was over from Orange on Saturday, a guest of Miss Kate Rea. Miss Roberts is teaching in the grammar school at Orange. The Ladies Guild of St. Michael's will meet with Mrs. Joe des Granges, Placentia, Thursday, Dec. 3, at half-past two. George Hunter mingled with the crowds in town on Market day. Nearly as many people here as in Los Angeles, he said. New Highway Will Connect Redwoods Automobile travel directly between Giant Forest and General Grant National Park will be possible this fall for the first time. The route, 34 miles long will provide an easy, graded highway between the General Sherman and General Grant sequolas, the largest living things in the world. Cost of the road will be between $1,500,000 and $2,000,000, including a $30,000 cut stone bridge. No opening ceremony will be held this fall, it was decided, because the highway, while open to travel will be rough in sections and otherwise not completed. Construction of the highway was begun in 1828. Its completion, it was estimated, will double the number of visitors to General Grant and Sequoia national parks. Believes Police Are Fast Workers When it comes to recovering stolen automobiles, the Sacramento police are pretty fast workers, in the opinion of Perrin Bros., auto dealers. A new machine belonging to the dealers had been recovered by the capital police. Leo Perrin was informed by telephone. The car had been stolen from the firm's salesroom at Lodi, according to the report. Investigation by Perrin proved the officers were right—but it was the first knowledge the dealers had of the robbery. Bar Cross Used 300 A.D.

This width is Agricultural and Business Recovery Plans Considered In Detail At State Chamber's Convention; Teague Sounds the Key-Note Noted Citrus Leader and Head of the State Group Lauds Agricultural Adjustment Act and Industrial Recovery Act. But Says President's Agreement Did Much to Confuse Country Problems of agricultural and business recovery in California received the attention of more than six hundred leaders and public officials at the two-day annual meeting of the California state chamber of commerce held at the Biltmore Hotel last Thursday and Friday. C. C. Teague, president of the state chamber, sounded the key-note of the conference in a statement made at the luncheon meeting on the opening day. "The depression, out of which I hope we are arising," Teague said, "brought to this country a political upheaval that resulted in legislation touching every person in the country. I refer principally to the agricultural adjustment act and the industrial recovery act. "There is much merit in these acts. As we get the perspective of time we'll appreciate more and more what they did to stimulate recovery. Both of them to an extent have been discredited by the promulgation of the president's agreement, or blanket codes. This latter undoubtedly was meant to speed up the regular codes, and it did, but the result has been the greatest of confusion. When the hysteria of the Blue Eagle is gone, and I think that it is passing rapidly, the result undoubtedly will be in favor of the regular code movement. The blanket codes started out on the boycott plan and a great deal of harm was done to industry and business. There was no lack of good faith in its inception, but it caused the people to lose sight of what was being done by the two great acts for agricultural and industrial recovery. "It is the principal purpose of the agricultural adjustment act," he said, "to increase the purchasing power of the farmer through surplus control and its resultant increasing of prices for farm products. son that the conservation camps have been such a success that they should be established on a permanent basis. Frederick J. Koster, chairman of the committee on government expenditure and taxation, in an address before the lunchean on Friday noon stressed the need for drastic economy in government. "We now find," Koster said, "our state government operating on an l.o.u. basis for the first time since 1892. Many local government units are in about the same predicament. "There are only two ways to balance revenues and expenditures. One way is to find ways and means of securing additional revenue. The other way is to reduce expenditures within income limits. I have stated before, and wish to emphasize again, that in any opinion the best solution to the more urgent phases of the tax question is to reduce governmental expenditures to limits commensurate with our ability to pay." Plans for a statewide committee which will make an exhaustive study of the taxation and govermental expenditure problem were described by Mr. Koster. State Controller Ray L. Riley, speaking on the tax crisis in California declared that California government must be reorganized from the bottom upward if there is to be any reduction in expenditures. He said that the relief in that part of France, line Cross as its insignia.

Center—Phone 3111 Thousands have Ended their Bowel Worries by taking this advice! Can constipation actually be overcome? "Yes!" say medical men. "Yes!" say the many thousands who have followed their advice and know. You are not likely to cure your constipation with salts, pills, tablets, or any of the habit-forming cathartics. But you can correct this condition by gentle regulation with a suitable liquid laxative. THE LIQUID TEST: This is the way many men and women have made their bowels as regular as clockwork in a very short time. First: select a properly prepared liquid laxative. Second: take the dose you find suited to your system. Third: gradually reduce the dose until bowels are moving of their own accord. Simple, isn't it? And it works! The right liquid laxative brings thorough bowel action without using force. An approved liquid laxative (one which is most widely used for both adults and children) is syrup pepsin. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a prescription, and is perfectly safe. Its laxative action is based on senna—a natural laxative. The bowels will not become dependent on this form of help, as in the case of mineral drugs. Hospitals and doctors have always used liquid laxatives. The dose can be measured, and the action controlled. Pills and tablets containing drugs of violent action are hard on the bowels. If there are children in your household, don't give them any fad form of laxative, but use a healthful, helpful preparation like syrup pepsin. Its very taste will tell you it is wholesome, and agreeable to the stomach. Delightful taste, and delightful action; there is no discomfort at the time, or after. Ask your druggist for Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, all ready to take.
