50 Years Ago The Island of Santa Catalina, to which Senator Fair has suggested the transportation of the untamable Apaches, is represented as being a natural prison, too good for the proposed occupants. The island is eighteen miles long and from three to seven miles broad, lying nineteen miles from San Pedro on the mainland. In topography the island is rough and mountainous, one peak rising to the altitude of 2110 feet. The shores are rocky and precipitous, especially on the southern coast. A growth of thorny bushes covers the whole island. It, however, possesses an abundance of water and its climate is said to excell the soft balminess of the mainland. Formerly it was the home of the Indians. Since the days of civilization, however, it has been utilized for sheep and goat ranges. A few years ago 20,000 sheep and 10,000 goats found sustenance upon it. Vegetation, partly owing to the abundance of water, keeps green all the year round. In some parts there are vast fields of wild oats. The water about the island abound in fish, thousands of which can be seen swimming near the shore. The island is a portion of the James Lick estate and negotiations were once commenced with a syndicate of English capitalists for its sale at the price of $2,000,000. The following were the exports from the Anaheim depot for the week ending yesterday morning: One hundred and forty barrels of wine, 56,728 pounds; 168 sacks of wool, 60,520 pounds; merchandise, 66,760 pounds, among which were more than 650 boxes of oranges, 17 cases of honey and 60 cases of eggs an dother products. On Sunday last Mr. Jacob Walker of Santa Ana and Michael Costa were boating in Newport bay, when the boat capsized and both were pitched into the sea. Both attempted to swim to shore, and Walker reached the land in safety, while Costa, who was an expert swimmer, suddenly sank when about forty feet from shore and disappeared. His body at last accounts had not been recovered. Mr. T. C. L. Kay left on Monday for a trip to England. To such an ardent sportsman as he, the hunting attractions of this section can not long be foregone, and his return at anytime may be looked for. Mrs. H. C. Gade and family, accompanied by her sister and two other persons, arrived home on Sunday evening from Blissfield, Mich., where she has been on a tide could escape through it on which account they were anxious to purchase it. The Anaheim Anti-Riparian club has 108 members. J. Washkin and R. J. Northam were unanimously elected delegates to represent the club at the convention to be held in San Francisco the 20th inst. Nearly thirty children were confirmed in the Catholic church last Sunday morning. The service were conducted by Bishop Morrison assisted by Rev. Father Hawe.

The price ranged all the way from $6327,9870. They were all referred to Engineer Lewis to make a selection an report at the next meeting. Judging from the following points there appears to be no slump in the building business. F. A. Yungbluth, residence in East Broadway, cost $2,000. Taylor, frame residence on E-Chartres, cost $1200. Chas. Eyg broad, corrugated iron garage Walnut street, cost $100. H. Weisel, frame dwelling on Sycamore street, cost $1300. J. Gowan, frame on South Angeles, cost $200. Jane C. Water, frame residence on Heddy street, cost $2400. The petition Chas. Schindler, and others.. 10,000 goats found sustenance upon it. Vegetation, partly owing to the abundance of water, keeps green all the year round. In some parts there are vast fields of wild oats. The water about the island abound in fish, thousands of which can be seen swimming near the shore. The island is a portion of the James Lick estate and negotiations were once commenced with a syndicate of English capitalists for its sale at the price of $2,000,000. Lead has been discovered upon the mountains and an attempt was made to develop it but later abandoned. A tunnel 1,000 feet long and a shaft 400 feet deep remain as relies of its mining era. For over eight years several swarms of bees have had possession of the roof under the cornices of the Masonic hall, and it is thought that there must be a large amount of honey stored in this barely accessible place as many years have passed since an attempt was made by Mr. Stappenback to secure the hidden sweets, when a fair amount was taken out. As the prospect for a large quantity this year is very good nearly everywhere, it would be profitable to make an investigation. "The crazy Chinaman," (Ah Foo) was sent to jail yesterday by Justice Pierce for ten days. A petition has been forwarded to the district attorney asking him to have the Chinaman examined and sent to the insane asylum if he is a fit subject for that place. He is a terror to ladies and children here, and if he is confined for a term of years it will be a decided relief to them.
