IN THE DAYS OF L Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter of a Century Authentic History in Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim and C 25 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK APRIL 1, 1909 A meeting of the Associated Chambers of Commerce of Orange county was held at the Commercial hotel last evening, and in anticipation of the event Landlord Ziegler prepared a banquet fit in every way for the leaders of civic bodies of the county. The dining room was handsomely decorated and the tables were decked out in snowy tablecloth and shining silver. Covers were laid for fifty guests. The Associated Chambers of Commerce have organized for the upbuilding of Orange county, and henceforth harmony is to be the watchword. Delegates were present from Santa Ana, Orange, Fullerton, Huntington Beach and other towns. Officers were elected and a number of impromptu responses to toasts were made. Members sat down to the banquet at 8 o'clock and it was late before the merry throng dispersed to their homes. The menu: Soup Small Rockaway Oysters Relishes Pickles Olives Radishes Entrees Columbia River Salmon, Sans a la Maitre de Hotel Roast Turkey, a la Prosperity of Anaheim Boiled Beef Tongue, Sans Piquant Cauliflower, Sans Hollandaise French Peas Lettuce Mashed Potatoes Swiss Cheese Lemon Meringue Almond Cake Coffee Royal Cigars Five candidates are in the field for the place of Supervisor G.W.

Moore, who expects to go out of office in June in order to devote all his time to the Celery association. They are T. B. Talbert, Huntington Beach; Jacob Walton, Westminster; Jerome Fulsome, Garden Grove; J. H. Edwards, Westminster; and S. R. Herrin, Westminster. All these men have been workers for the regular republican organization. Mr. Dickel reports .65 of an inch of rain on Friday night and showers during the week bringing the total for the season to 18.75, last year to date 10.15. The rainfall of 1883-4 was 27.29 inches, of which April had 1.75, May .54 and June 1.28, or 3.57 inches after April 1st. The rainfall of 1884-5 amounted to only 5.76 inches of which nearly all fell in December. 21.12 inches fell in 1889-90 of which 11.32 fell in December 1889, .78 in March 1890 and nothing later. The next year was one with plentiful rain and had 15.92 inches, of which 9.04 fell in February and 1.81 in April. It frequently happens that no rain falls after April 1st, but 2.78 inches fell in May 1883 and 1.48 inches in May 1892. The average rainfall is about 11 inches, but several years have fallen below half that amount and 1878-9 had only 4.19 inches. Francis J. Heney, the expert special prosecutor, is going to Portland immediately following the conclusion of the trial of Patrick Calhoun in San Francisco. Mr. Heney is being brought to Portland by the Daily News of that city which has been waging a campaign against alleged official corruption in Portland and the State of Oregon for the past year. It is asserted that the famous prosecutor will institute a thorough investigation into that city's municipal affairs, in which certain men of political and financial prominence in Oregon are interested. The Travel club met with Miss Dora Zeyn on Saturday afternoon. Roll call was answered with facts about Japan. The lecture on Japan was continued by Mrs. Pearson and Mrs. Dutton and finished by Miss Hayler. Miss Margaret gave a delightful instrumental solo. The next regular meeting of Ebell will take place on Saturday, April 3 at 2:30 p.m. in Masonic hall. Mrs. Willoughby Rodman of Los Angeles, chairman of civics committee in the California federation of Women's clubs will address the meeting. Miss Lilly Zeus entertained members of the senior class at A. U. H. S., at her home on West Center street Friday evening. During the evening a delightful supper was discussed by those present. The invited guests were; Prof. J. F. Walker, Miss Bella J. Walker, Misses Marie Finney, Gertrude Asher, Grace Schindler, Lois Blake, Iva Cameron, Viola Susmil, Laura Newman, Messrs. Raymond Nebelung, Henry Berg, Herman Wedel, Joseph Burns, Elton Gobel, Fred Weisel, Arnold Dickel, Rollo Davis.

The annual meeting of the Ladies Aid society was held Thursday afternoon at the Presbyterian church and officers were elected as follows: Mrs. H. L. Armstrong, president; Mrs. Mary Miller, vice-president; Mrs. Lucy Hayden, second vice-president; Miss Marian Johnston, secretary; Mrs. Emma Duckworth, treasurer. Theo Ford was in town on Tuesday from his nurseries near the river, south of town. Mr. Ford ended the shipping season yesterday by forwarding 1000 walnut trees to Hemet. He has shipped several thousand trees to the upper valley this season and the year has been in every respect a prosperous one. Miss Vera Gade was tendered a birthday surprise on Monday evening at the residence of Mrs. John Dickenson on Lemon street. The evening was spent in games and social converse and later a delicious repast was served. Jim Pickering loaned his umbrella the other day to a man who promised to return it at noon. The man failed to return it, claiming that while he said he would return it at noon, he did not specify the day. If Harriman finds this out, Jim will get a Brownie. The W. C. T. U. had an entertainment at the Methodist church on Monday evening. Among features of the evening was a spelling contest. Carrie Evans, Edith Cornell and Gladys Gervais were the winners. Gladys Gervais was awarded a silver medal for an essay. Articles of incorporation have been filed with the county clerk by the Bastenchury Ranch company, with principal place of business at Fullerton. The stock is capitalized at $30,000 of which amount the sum of $300 has been actually subscribed. Jack Hunter sold 20 acres of his place north of town to Roswell Bottom, recently arrived from South Dakota for $16,000. The land is set to oranges and walnuts. OF LONG AGO and a Quarter of a Century Ago. These Files Contain the Only mens of Anaheim and Orange County in the Days of the Pioneers. 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK MARCH 29, 1884 The stock in nearly all the stores, was and is, down to a very low point by reason of the embargo on traffic caused by the floods. Some relief was afforded, however, by the arrival of freight by rail on Wednesday and Thursday evenings, but in connection therewith occurred a rather ludicrous incident. One storekeeper whose stock is in a depleted condition, hailed the arrival of the freight train on Wednesday with inexpressible joy, in the certainty that some of his delayed freight was on board. He was not mistaken for early on Thursday morning the truck deposited an immense case at the store door. The cover was knocked off in a twinkling, revealing—a large and varied assortment of straw hats! As the public are not famishing for straw hats, but rather want something to eat, the feelings of the storekeeper may be better imagined than described. On Tuesday afternoon and night .25 of an inch of rain fell, and on Thursday afternoon and night 1.13 of an inch fell, making the total for the week 1.38 inches, and for the season 22.75 inches. Rainfall for the previous three years—in all—21.5 inches. The Santa Ana Standard remarks as follows: "The lamented death of Mr. Theodore Lynill of Anaheim makes a good opening for a lawyer in that town and Dr. Ellis, firmly believing that a bachelor can best discharge his duty to his clients, has written to friends in some Eastern cities to send on a young lawyer well up in his profession with a little independent means and unmarried. We hope the Doctor will be successful in his search." The Riverside Valley Echo says of the new town of Elsinore: The lake at Elsinore has been rising ever since the rainy season set in and is at present a little over 20 feet higher than before the rain. It is still rising at the rate of one inch a day and doubtless Upton Sinclair to Speak at Fullerton One of the outstanding events of the season for the Fullerton junior college forum, among a long list of unusual Thursday night attractions, is the program scheduled for Thursday night, March 29, at 7:30 p.m., in the large auditorium, at which time Upton Sinclair will speak on the subject: "Why I choose to be Governor of California during the next four years." No less than seven different candidates for the governorship have indicated their purpose to make this race this year on the democratic ticket, some of whom have formally announced and others are flirting with the public to be commandered for the job. It is the intention of the junior college forum to invite each gubernatorial aspirant to appear and have a night on its regular Thursday evening program during the ensuing season. Discount Rate of Bank Is Lowered Effective Friday, March 16, the discount rate of the Berkeley intermediate credit bank was lowered from the present 3 per cent to 2½ per cent. President Willard D. Ellis, of the bank announced. The high rate had been in effect since November 15. The 2½ per cent rate will be the lowest since the intermediate credit bank was established in 1923 and is rendered possible. Ellis said, by the present favorable market for debentures. NOTICE OF SALE OF REAL ESTATE UNDER EXECUTION In the Superior Court of the County of Orange, State of California SHERIFF'S SALE D. JERRY YOUNGS and KATHARINE O. NOUNGS The Santa Ana Standard remarks as follows: "The lamented death of Mr. Theodore Lynill of Anaheim makes a good opening for a lawyer in that town and Dr. Ellis, firmly believing that a bachelor can best discharge his duty to his clients, has written to friends in some Eastern cities to send on a young lawyer well up in his profession with a little independent means and unmarried. We hope the Doctor will be successful in his search." The Riverside Valley Echo says of the new town of Elsinore: The lake at Elsinore has been rising ever since the rainy season set in and is at present a little over 20 feet higher than before the rain. It is still rising at the rate of one inch a day and doubtless will continue to rise for several months to come. A portion of a few lots sold are now under water, but to no great extent. The natives who live there say it will take two more such winters to fill it up sufficiently to have an outlet which would be about 22 feet higher than at present. It is hardly probably that this will happen, but should it occur the entire town of Elsinore, as now laid out, would be under water. Carl Hanks, an exaggerated edition of Daniel Quilp, was arrested in Wednesday for vagrancy and disturbing the peace, and Justice Bailey sentenced him to 60 days imprisonment on one charge and 90 days on the other. He has been annoying our citizens for several weeks by his impertinent and insulting manner of begging, and late on Tuesday night he was discovered in the porch of R. J. J. Schmidt's house, evidently for the purpose of robbery. As a result of Thursday night's rain the volume of water in the Santiago creek increased to such an extent that a bent of the railroad bridge was carried away. A gang of men were at work repairing it yesterday but up to three o'clock in the afternoon it had not been completed, and as a consequence the train was unable to proceed to Los Angeles. The track between Anaheim and Los Angeles is in good order. The estimated population of the United States as made up at Washington by Prof. E. B. Elliott, government actuary, at the close of 1883, was 54,163,000. The good people of Los Angeles county are now required to pay 95 cents each, per annum, for interest on the national debt. In 1865 they had to pay $4.29 apiece, annual interest, or more than four times what is now paid. The latest advices are that the Northern and Sunset trains are running regularly, but as they travel slowly over the newly-repaired portions of the track they are several hours behind time. The Anaheim postoffice will be removed next week from its present location to the room on the first floor of the Gazette building on Los Angeles street. It will be removed again in a few months to the new building to be erected adjoining the bank of Anaheim. The steamship San Blas, on her last trip to Panama took 70,840 gallons of wine and 1,400 gallons of California brandy of which 56,000 gallons were sent by Messrs. B. Dreyfus & Co., and Kohler & Frohling of Los Angeles county. Mr. Fromhein exhibited on Saturday a box of oranges, many of them measuring 16.5 inches in circumferences. They were of the navel variety and were from 4-year-old trees. Mr. Rimpau has some on his Mission trees equally as large.

They were of the navel variety and were from 4-year-old trees. Mr. Rimpau has some on his Mission trees equally as large. Mr. F. M. Cocke, proprietor of the Bolsa Grande dairy, is now manufacturing one hundred pounds of cheese every day, which is all disposed of in Santa Ana and Anaheim and orders cannot all be filled. A frost on Tuesday night slightly damaged some of the vineyards in the vicinity of Los Angeles. There has been frost here several nights during the week but not severe enough to do harm. In the San Gabriel Valley the orange trees are not blooming uniformly, some being heavily loaded and others quite the reverse. In and around Anaheim all orange trees seem to be covered with blossoms. The Gazette is in favor of woman suffrage because it believes that "taxation without representation is a crime," because women would use the ballot wisely, and for half a hundred other becauses. If intelligent tax-paying women are not allowed to vote, then we are in favor of cutting off that privilege from ignorant non-tax-paying men. Prof. Pohndorff of St. Helena was in town on Wednesday. Though an enthusiastic viticulturist, the Professor has strong faith in olive culture, and will next year plant extensively of that tree in San Diego county, where he has purchased a tract of land. He will plant a better variety of olive than has heretofore been grown in California and will procure his plants direct from Spain.
