IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGOT Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Haif a Century and a Quarter of a Centurion Ago. These Files Contain The Only Authentic History In Print of the Daily Doing of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange County in the Days of the Pioneers. 50 Years Ago FEBRUARY 20, 1886 A special fast freight train left Los Angeles Sunday for the east. It consisted of twenty cars laden with oranges. As the train goes through without stoppages except for supplies, the fruit will reach the Eastern market in five and one-half days—probably on Friday. This is the first large shipment of the season. Arriving when the winter apples of that section are getting scarce, and just after the Florida oranges have been rejected as unwholesome, they will command good prices, and the superiority of the California fruit over that of Florida and the West Indies will be more than ever apparent. Shipments like this—ten-thousands boxes at a single send-off—of the largest, choicest fruit, such as the Washington navel, are what has given Southern California its reputation. One hundred and twenty-two rabbits were killed on last Saturday morning by the hunters who secured the plains to the north of town. The hunters and their prey were photographed by Pellegrin, and the result is a very interesting picture. Another rabbit hunt will take place today. The hunters are requested to meet at A. McDermont's house at 1 o'clock today. Following is a list of names of pupils of the Grammar and Intermediate department of the Anaheim public school, who have not been born there for five square miles. An effort was made two years ago to increase the limits by adding outside territory sufficient to give it a population nearly 5000. The matter dropped after objection had arisen among some of the outlying cities to coming in. A settled country exists all along the city and Anaheim is the testing point for a population much larger than the people contained within its limits. Some of the Southern California towns showing large populations figures have large areas, that Riverside which contains 15 million population, being 56 square miles. Postmaster Duckworth week received information from Washington that the postmaster had authorized free delivery of mails in this city being May 1st. The order stated that there will be three carriages one substitute, ten street-level boxes and two combination box Receipts at the post office grown continuously since July, when at the close of fiscal year receipts went well to the $10,000 mark set for free delivery. This city now maintains five routes of rural free delivery supplying outlying sections in directions. The Santa Ana bar association at a meeting held on Saturday pointed a committee consisting of R. Y. Williams, H. J. Forgy, W. A. Thomas to take up matter of the creation of a second Superior Judgeship for Oran County with Assemblyman Biscot and Senator Esterdillo. The hunters and their prey were photographed by Pellegrin, and the result is a very interesting picture. Another rabbit hunt will take place today. The hunters are requested to meet at A. McDermont's house at 1 o'clock today. Following is a list of names of pupils of the Grammar and Intermediate department of the Anaheim public school, who have not been absent or tardy for this month: Louise Schneider, Jessie Witte, Maud Northam, Kate Champlin, Floy Roberts, Maggie Higgins, Mary Husmann, Alex Humbolt, Henry Kroeger, Isador Davis, Harry Dyer, Louis Kroeger, James Rimpau, Otto Strodthoff, John Smythe, Theresa Knapke, Lina Kroeger, Dora Dorr. The Placentia Literary society was called to order by the President and opened by music, followed by an exceedingly interesting and profitable programme, consisting of a select reading by Mr. McFadden, and declamations by Tommy McFadden, "A Little Boy's Speech"; John Hetebbrink; "The Robber and the Quaker"; Clarence McFadden, "Don't Want to be good." Choice recitations were given by Annie Dresser, Anna Hansen, Mattie Hansen and Mrs. Deyonshire; song by Mr. Bucklin.

Decided in favor of the negative. Adjourned to meet in two weeks. On Friday of last week the 15 months old child of John Kearny, living in the Bixby ranch at Upper Santa Ana, was drowned in the Cajon ditch. The ditch is but a short distance from Mr. Kearny's house, and being the company's main ditch, a larger stream of water usually flows therein. The child evidently fell in while playing on its banks and the body floated down the ditch, a distance of two miles, where it was found. Mr. James Lawler, the agent of Eugene Avy, wholesale butcher of San Francisco, has shipped two steamer loads, (4000 head) of being made by Fritz Ruhman on the property lately bought by him on Los Angeles street.
