IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter of a Century Ago. These Files Contain The Only Authentic History In Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange County in the Days of the Pioneers. 50 Years Ago MARCH 20, 1886 The delegation and exhibits for the Chicago Citrus Fair have arrived in that city. When the great trainload of fruit left Los Angeles the managers in Chicago were notified by telegram to be ready for the precious cargo. A dispatch was received from L. M. Holt on Saturday saying that the prospect was bright for a most successful fair. The whole city was ready to welcome the exhibit which will be the largest exhibition of citrus fruits ever made anywhere in the world. At New Orleans there were but about eighty boxes of California oranges, when they gave the prize to Riverside. At Chicago all of Southern California will be represented and there will be more than two thousand boxes of oranges, besides many boxes of lemons and limes and three oarloads of orange trees bearing the ripe fruit. Pasadena sent a carload of the finest citrus trees she has. It embraces all of the citrus fruits—oranges, lemons, limes. One is a full-bearing orange tree, fifteen feet in height, loaded with ripe fruit. There is also a fine selection of all the lovely flowering shrubs that grow in productive Pasadena. It goes over the C. S., A. & P. and A. T. & S. F. railways, in charge of Mr. C. H. Richardson. C. Z. Culver will leave in a few days with a second shipment. plowed ground. The storm here measured by gauge was .72 of an inch, making the total fall for the season up to date 12.72 inches. The snowfall upon the mountains was greater than by any previous storm this winter. The new county bridge over the Santiago creek is nearly done and teams are passing over it. It has been built in a very substantial manner, and there is not the least danger of any freshet carrying it away. This bridge is an improvement that has long been wanted by the people in this valley. And now we want a bridge over the Santa Ana river towards Burruel Point. L. M. Brown and family from Danville, Ill., are visiting their brother-in-law, W. R. Harker. They have been looking about Anaheim and its surroundings and express themselves delighted with the country. They will make California their home. Everyone should look to the fastenings of their windows and doors to prevent their property from getting into the hands of the "light-fingered gentry," who have been infesting neighboring districts during the past couple of weeks. Increased traffic on the Anaheim branch of the Southern Pacific railroad has necessitated the use of a heavier locomotive than has been before employed. of old vines. But little, if any irrigation has been required. The outlook is auspicious. Gottlob Bayha has purchased the McKee and Shorb track of land in the Yorba district. The sale was effected through the agency of Melrose & Knapp. F. and J. Backs have ordered a large quantity of furniture direct from eastern factories through the agency of D. B. Summer. They take advantage of the low freight rates offered by the present railroad war. Mrs. L. F. Lewis, Mrs. H. A. Gade, Mr. and Mrs. Stege and W.J. Ree have taken advantage of the low railroad fare to visit Chicago. James Irvine, owner of the San Joaquin ranch below Tustin, died at his residence in San Francisco on Monday last. On Tuesday night San Diego was lighted with electricity and the people are jubliant. Deputy Assessor Barham will remain at the Planters hotel during next week, when he hopes to furnish the assessment of the town of Anaheim. The last rabbit-shoot will be today promptly at 10 o'clock at Browning's. The Pomological society of Los Angeles county will hold its annual meeting in Los Angeles, commencing April 1st. A display of fruits, flowers, vegetables and other products will be made. Mrs. Kate Parker is the representative of the society in Anaheim and is thoroughly alive to the importance of a good display from this section. All articles for exhibition should be addressed to Thomas A. Gearey, Los Angeles, and left at the depot on or before March 30. The railroad company carries all articles free and each donor is entitled to admission to the exhibit. Mr. Carl Pamjerl is dividing the upper story of his brick building on Los Angeles street into five nice rooms, which he will occupy with his family as a dwelling. He is also having an elevated porch, 25 x 25 feet built to the rear, with a railing all around, which will be ornamented with growing flowers and shrubbery and provided with seats. Wednesday's rain came "in streaks" after the manner of Jack Brost. At Santa Ana the rainfall had not been very heavy up till 5 o'clock, while here in Anaheim it came down in torrents, the water running down the streets and standing in pools even on Everyone should look to the fastenings of their windows and doors to prevent their property from getting into the hands of the "light-fingered gentry," who have been infesting neighboring districts during the past couple of weeks. Increased traffic on the Anaheim branch of the Southern Pacific railroad has necessitated the use of a heavier locomotive than has been before employed. It there is any connection between the weight of a locomotive and the comfort of passengers the change will be greatly appreciated by those who have been accustomed to the intolerable jerks of the old machine. The vineyards of Anaheim are putting forth leaves. In the warmer soils the vines show an unusual forwardness. The season thus far has been favorable for planting new vineyards and for the growth GREATER 225 EAST CENTER STREET MEAT DEPT. JAMES KILDUFF, Owner-Mgr.

The trustees announce further particulars will be published later. Present school facilities are inadequate to the demand upon them, and the number of children applying for admission is constantly increasing. It is thought little opposition will manifest itself to issuing bonds and that the new building will in the not distant future be in course of erection. An epidemic of resignation appears to have attacked the city officials and City Attorney Melrose is the latest victim of the complaint. At the regular meeting of the Board of trustees on Thursday evening he tendered his resignation and it was received and accepted with genuine regret. He has, for a number of years, been the mainstay of the city administration, but ap ress of private affairs, he said, made it imperative that he give up the position. After accepting the resignation of Mr. Melrose the Board immediately proceeded to the election of his successor. Homer G. Ames was placed in nomination by Trustee Max Nebeiung, and there being no other names presented, he was unanimously elected.
