IN THE DAYS OF LONDON 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 Orlando 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK The approach of Memorial Day—May 30th—suggests the idea of the appropriateness of decorating the soldiers graves in the Anaheim cemetery with the assistance of the G.A.R. Post of Santa Ana, or, if that can not be had, under the auspices of the ex-soldiers now living in this vicinity, of whom there are quite a number. If they would take the initiation, we are assured that the ladies would provide an abundance of floral tributes. We hope to chronicle some movement of this kind next week. Since the success of the ostrich industry has become an assured fact, the stock of the corporation has a more solid value than it had when the future of the enterprise was enveloped in doubt. A San Francisco paper has this item: "F. S. Weston has filed a complaint in the superior court in which he avers that five shares of stock of the California Ostrich Farming company owned by Louis A. Garrett, was sold by the company on the 30th of September, to pay an assessment of $8 a share, to Fernando Boracira, he paying therefor $45. A few days ago Garrett transferred his claim upon the stock to Weston, who has offered to redeem the stock, which offer the company refuses to accept. The court is asked to declare the said sale void and to compel the company to issue five shares of its stock to plaintiff. On last Sunday night Marshal Boha was murderously assaulted by Quate Sais, notorious criminal whom he had arrested and was taking to jail. When near the jail Sais, assisted by a couple of his pals, overpowered the officer, took his club away from him and pounded him on the head, evidently until they were exhausted and then fled. This happened about midnight, and about two o'clock the marshal was discovered wandering about aimlessly a mile away from the scene of the assault. Dr. Bullard was called and he was engaged for two hours in sewing up the wounds on the victims head. He was horribly bruised, and the wounds would have proved fatal to the majority of men, but there is every reason to believe that he will recover. Sais has not been arrested. If he is not captured he will not dare to return here, and thus the community will have gotten rid of a drunken nuisance. The English Parliament has voted 55,000,000 pounds as a start in the war with Russia, which seems now to be inevitable. The relative strength of the two powers is as follows: England's regular army comprises 201,905 men, on a war footing 811,883. Russia's regular army numbers 882,979, on a war footing 2,900,000. England has in her navy 529 vessels and 79,841 men, Russia 396 vessels and 28,920 men. It will thus be seen that if England's soldiers cannot fight better than its poet-Laureate can write, the result first on the list of buschamber of commerce meet day last, was the report Weisel of the purchase of new comfortable chairs, the general public on meek Director Mills brought up of the limited time left for enumerator, Max Nebelu plete his work and in view that other towns through bers of commerce have given hand to their respective Mills moved that the authorized to communicate Nebelung and lend him an assistance Carried.

The rain would have done more good had it come earlier in the season, but even at this late date it was of great benefit, and one result of it will be an increased production of hay and grain. Coyotes visit the town of San Andreas, Calaveras county, at night and help themselves to everything eatable that they can find. Meat shops and chicken roosts suffer the most. The cottony cushion scale has appeared in an orange orchard at Pasadena. Mr. A. McDermont sent a box of oranges to Muscatine, Iowa, some time ago and received word the other day that they had reached their destination in first class order, although they had been four weeks in transit. Miss Helen Wagner gave recitations from German authors at the hall on Wednesday evening, much to the gratification of a select and appreciative audience.

Director Mills brought up the matter of the limited time left for the census enumerator, Max Nebelung to complete his work and in view of the fact that other towns through their chambers of commerce have given a helping hand to their respective numerators, Mills moved that the chairman be authorized to communicate with Mr. Nebelung and lend him any necessary assistance. Carried. The committee in charge of the banquet reported that prospects were good for a large attendance. Judge Richard Egan of San Juan Capistrano was on Monday appointed by the Board of Supervisors as member of the highway commission, in place of C. Chapman, resigned. Judge Egan has been a resident of San Juan for forty years, knows the county thoroughly is an authusiast of good roads, and is a bully good fellow. Arthur Porter has sold his ten acre improved place on East Orangethorpe avenue to C. W. Croman, recently arrived from the east. Mr. Porter some years ago purchased twenty acres in the Kraemer tract at Placentia for $120 and now holds it at $800. He will probably erect a handsome home on the Pierre Nicolas and family are comfortably domiciled in their new home in Fullerton, recently purchased from Mr. Brawley. The residence occupies an eminence upon one of the hills west of the city commanding a panoramic view of the adjacent country for miles around. It is a beautiful place, under a high state of cultivation, and the yards bedecked with abundant flower beds, terraced roadway leading to the mansion, truly make the place an ideal residence. Mr. Nicolas' health has of late not been of the best, but he is now gaining his aforetime vigor, and the wish of his many friends is that he may be spared for many years to enjoy the evening of his life with his estimable family. H. Clay Kellogg narrowly escaped serious injury at Corona some days ago while cranking his auto in a garage. The machine sprang forward unaccountably, and Kellogg was pinned against a brick wall. He called for help which was soon found on examination that no bones were broken, but Kellogg sustained many severe bruises and contusions about the body.

It also supervises tests of production and through Golden Guernsey, Inc., supervises the marketing of Golden Guernsey milk. Clinic For Children To Be Held Saturday A diagnostic clinic for discovering and examining crippled children in Orange County will be held on April 29th at the Santa Ana Ebell Club House, 625 French Street, between the hours of 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. This clinic is to be conducted by the State Department of Health under the sponsorship of the Crippled Children's Relief Association of Orange County. The orthopedic specialists, chosen by the State Board of Health, will do the examining and will discuss with the parent the necessity for placing and keeping these handicapped children under proper medical supervision. No actual treatment will be attempted at the clinic. "As Health Officer of Orange County, I am very anxious, that every crippled child be properly taken care of, so that later in life his disability may prove as slight a handicap as possible to himself, his family and his community," said Dr. K.

As Health Officer of Orange County, I am very anxious, that every crippled child be properly taken care of, so that later in life his disability may prove as slight a handicap as possible to himself, his family and his community," said Dr. K. H. Sutherland, Health Officer, Orange County. In 1930 and again in 1934, this community suffered from an epidemic of infantile paralysis which left many children with some paralysis, and should be kept under a continuous prolonged treatment in order to secure satisfactory results.

E. Lush, chairman of the Beekeepers Department of the Farm Bureau. The Carniolan race of bees is known as the friendly bee — they are much less irritable than the Italian bees that are most commonly kept by local beekeepers. The apiary which is operated by A. Crannell will be used for demonstration purposes during the afternoon. It is located one-half mile west of Atwood and one-fourth mile south on Jefferson Road, on what is known as the Stearns lease.

GROUND BREAKING CEREMONIES ARE HELD FOR PLACENTIA HIGH SCHOOL Starting activities with appropriate ceremonies, the groundbreaking for the new plant of the Valencia High School in Placentia was held last Friday afternoon when the civic clubs' leaders gathered to witness and participate in this important event.

The building is to be located on a 10-acre orange grove, immediately adjoining the administration building campus of Placentia Grammar school. It will consist of 11 classrooms.
