50 Years Ago March 13, 1887 Six artesian wells have been bored by Wm. Manson on the Cavit tract in San Bernardino valley to supply the Gage canal, leading to Riverside, with water. The wells are all flowing ones, and a photograph of them shows the large amount of water which they supply. Three of the wells, each of seven inches in diameter, throw into the air a column of water this size from two feet to thirty-one inches high. The other wells have been plugged, with a small hole in each plug, through which the water is forced to a height of ten or fifteen feet. The well giving the largest amount of water furnishes 2,200 gallons of water per minute, and the six to eight furnish about 5,500 gallons per minute. Thus far there has been no perceptible diminition in flow. The cost of the largest living well was $550. Another group of wells will soon be flowed. It is estimated that these wells are worth $250,000 to Mr. George. One of the best public entertainments given in this vellity some time past was that of the Fairview Literary Society and the Club on Saturday evening at Fairview schoolhouse. A large audience greeted the performance and all expressed themselves as highly pleased with each and Wrong House." The evening closed with a social dance.

The site selected is a block formerly owned by Mrs. Konig, 600 feet square, bounded by Palm, Broadway, Helena and Chestnut streets. Papers in the negotiations were signed on Tuesday and the property passed into possession of Hartnett while here were the guests of Rev. Father Dubble at St. Boniface church. On Monday at noon County Assessor James Sleeper and his deputies began the 1912 assessment of Orange county. Sleeper states that with the tremendous development all over the county practically in the Fullerton fields, the total for 1912 will show a big gain over 1911. For the last ten weeks Sleeper has been doing little else than making a personal investigation of values in every part of the county. His five deputies are: E. F. Waite and G. Finley, Santa Ana; A. Newell, Orange; Al Cotant, Tustin; W. H. Bentley, Westminster; R. Gregory, Fullerton; J. J. Schneider, Anaheim. T. E. Schmidt is lying seriously ill at the home of his son-in-law Herman Dickel. Mr. Schmidt is 88 years of age, and is one of two remaining pioneers of Anaheim. He has the honor of naming the Colony which was organized in San Francisco in 1957. When several names were suggested, chose Anaheim and the name was finally adopted. Charley Allgeyer was in front his ranch at Brookshurst on Friday morning, expressing satisfaction at the showery weather Charley has never given up hope for a plenty of moisture and bountiful season. It is estimated that these trails are worth $250,000 to Mr. George.

Papers in the negotiations were signed on Tuesday and the property passed into possession of the Bishop of the diocese. Work will in the near future begin upon a two and there-story brick edifice, 300 x 350 feet which will be ready for occupancy in September. The structure will be used as a young ladies seminary, and will be under the control of the Sisters of St. Dominic from the Mother House at Havana, a separate branch of the sisterhood from those now so successfully conducting St. Catherine's academy on Palm street. A Los Angeles architect is now at work preparing plans for the new building, work upon which will begin at an early date.

SPORTOPIX by RUSS McCOMB The greatest basketball team in the history of Fullerton junior college today owns the Jaysee cage crown of Southern California as the result of victories over Long Beach in the playoff series. The scores were 26-21 on Friday and 35-33 Tuesday evening. The Hornets went through their conference schedule of 12 games and the two playoff games without defeat and won 23 of the 30 games played during the year. They averaged 41 points a game for the season, scoring a total of 1227 points. In conference and playoff games they tallied 646 points for an average of 46 a game. Individually, several players were outstanding. Chief among them were Captain Sonny Leichtfuss, Ted Neja and Lee Woodward. Close followers of the squad hand Leichtfuss a special bouquet. Near the end of the season Sonny was forced off the first string by Andy Echle and he didn't get into the championship series at all. But no greater leader or sportsman has Fullerton ever had. Gladly subjugating all thought of personal glory for the sake of the team, Sonny watched the contests from the bench, declined an opportunity to go into the final game because the Hornets' lead was too narrow for safety. Leichtfuss is a fine player in his own right; but he had no peer as a sportsman. Ted Neja, Anaheim sophomore, and Woodward shared honors throughout the season as scoring aces. The latter edged out the former Colonist in total points for Plans Complete for Forest Lawn Easter Services Preparation for the fourteenth annual Easter Sunrise service at Forest Lawn Memorial park, Glendale, on March 28, had been virtually completed today by the civic committee in charge of the event. With the finest program in the history of the service in prospect, the committee expects this year's attendance to surpass that recorded on Easter morning last year. The Los Angeles philharmonic orchestra, with Otto Klemperei conducting, will be the featured attraction of the Forest Lawn service. The orchestra will play two Wagnerian numbers the "Prelude" to "Lohengrin" and the "Overture" to "Tannhauser." Dr. Bruce R. Baxter, president of the Williamette university at Salem, Ore., will deliver the annual Easter message. Other participants will be a community chorus of 500 voices, and Francia White noted soprano Airplane and Boat Show to Open Soon The largest aircraft and boat show in the country was promised California today by H. H. Wetzel vice-president and general manager of the Douglas Aircraft company and president of the California Industries Association Ltd., sponsors of the second annual National Aircraft and Boat show when it opens its doors for a nine day showing next Saturday. According to Wetzel more than $2,500,000 worth of the "last word" in airplanes, boats and accessories will be on the floor of the Pan-Pacific auditorium when the SENAGRAM By HARRY C. WESTON As predicted in these last week, the highlight was first week of the March session the legislature was the deli-the supreme court. Although Republican members of the lature insisted that it was partisan issue, nevertheless decided along partisan line both the assembly and senate. The assembly passed a motion commending the Pre-proposal 41 to 31. The condemned the proposal 24. The assembly debate rather torrid at times with cussion arose as to a non-partisan legislature Assemblyman P Murray told the assembly wi-40 years the legislature had non-partisan-Republican action in the future the legislature also going to be non-partisan that is, Democratic. Assemblyman Thomas spoke in the assembly again resolution indorsing the student's plan. The matter was passed the senate upon a strictly basis, with the exception of Democratic senator who with the Republican major one Republican senator who with the Democratic bloc. Senator Keough of Bisha took the classic argument of the His argument in full follows: "Mr. President and Gov of the Senate: I have listen to the flow of oratory and bibl-were a bit difficult for understand as they had down the school to get me." Leichtfuss is a fine player in his own right, but he had no peer as a sportsman. Ted Neja, Anaheim sophomore, and Woodward shared honors throughout the season as scoring aces. The latter edged out the former Colonist in total points for the year, but Neja was the spark plug of more than one victory, including the last over Long Beach when he scored 13 points. Coach Art Nunn has built a great team out of a grand bunch of lads. Team play was the basic factor in the team's success, although everyone of seven boys on the squad undoubtedly could have made any Jaysee team in the southland. Nunn loses Leichtfuss, Neja, Jack Schell, Harold Newsome, Merritt Lambert and one or two reserves by graduation this year. Among the freshmen who will return for another year are Woodward, Andy Echle, Earl Allison, Arch Baker of Anaheim, and Reg. According to Wetzel more than $2,500,000 worth of the "last word" in airplanes, boats and accessories will be on the floor of the Pan-Pacific auditorium when the show opens. “This is the largest number of boats and aircraft ever displayed under one roof,” Wetzel said. “The recent New York show had 32 planes. The Los Angeles show will have 34 planes, some of them shown for the first time.” There’s one good thing about a strike. Whatever the outcome, both sides seem happy over winning. Is Echle, all of whom saw plenty of service during the campaign and who will form the nucleus of another prospective championship aggregation. As the supreme court did was the highlight of the ture during the first w March, the highlight for the week will probably be the tion relative to the pardon Mooney. After trying many years to obtain his through the courts, Tom has not turned to the leg asking that it grant a f complete pardon for him. CREAM OF KENTUCKY WHISKEY $102 Pint.....

Although the publican members of the legislature insisted that it was not a partisan issue, nevertheless it was decided along partisan lines in with the assembly and in the Senate. The assembly passed a resolution commending the President's proposal 41 to 31. The senate endowed the proposal 24 to 14. The assembly debate became fierer at times when discussion arose as to a non-partisan legislature Assemblyman Pat McCurray told the assembly that for years the legislature had been non-partisan-Republican and that in the future the legislature was going to be non-partisan—that is, Democratic. Assemblyman Thomas Kucheloke in the assembly against the resolution indorsing the President's plan. The matter was passed on in the senate upon a strictly partisan basis, with the exception of one democratic senator who voted with the Republican majority and the Republican senator who voted with the Democratic bloc. Senator Keough of Bishop gave the classic argument of the debate. His argument in full was as follows: "Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Senate: I have listened to the flow of oratory and big words here a bit difficult for me to understand as they had to burn down the school to get me out of there is a large bloom of labor votes in the assembly and labor is expected to support the measure with its entire strength. It is said around the capitol that the resolution may pass in the assembly, but will probably be defeated in the more conservative senate. This is the first time in the history of the state where the legislature has been called upon to grant a pardon after a pardon has been denied by the governor and the courts have refused relief. One of the favorite pastimes of the legislature seems to be the adjustment of salaries of judges of the superior courts of various counties of the state. At the present time there are now measures before the senate to increase the salary of judges of the Sacramento superior court from $6750 to $7500; of the King county superior court from $5000 to $6000; of the San Diego superior court $6750 to $7500; of the Orange county superior court $6500 to $7000; of the Sonora county superior court $6500 to $7500; of the Humboldt county superior court $6000 to $7500; San Mateo $6000 to $8000; and of the Sonoma superior court $6000 to $7500. A bill has been introduced in the senate to reduce the number of superior judges in Santa Barbara county from two to one. It seems to be the consensus of the members of the legislature that before salaries of the judges of the superior court are increased that such increase should be indorsed by the grand jury and by the board of supervisors." Sacramento entertained the Orange county delegation during the January session by putting on a real display of winter weather. For March the Orange county delegation, or at least the wives of the delegation, were entertained with a fire in the Sacramento Hotel. Mrs. Clyde Watson and Mrs. Westover and son, Harry Equen, were forced to flee the hotel during the past week because of fire in the basement. Elevators were not running and they left the hotel in a hurry by running down five flights of stairs. No damage was done but at the time the hotel was evacuated there was so much smoke that it was feared that there might be serious damage or injury."
