50 Years Ago
Sept. 11, 1887
Why is a tramp like a coyote? Because he comes around when the grapes are ripe. He is also like a coyote because he hasunning ways for devising means to get something to eat. Quite a number have been in this vicinity of late, and most of them have been offered employment by our citizens in picking grapes or doing odd jobs, but they prefer to lounge around and beat their way through rather than work. All people have their own way about matters. The Prohibitionist will not drink. The tramp will not work. Although there are a good many about Anaheim, it seems as if they are afraid of the "tramp law" ordinance, judging from the manner in which they behave when in town. They are mostly found in the outskirts of the village and around the depot. When they get tired of this place, they resort to the practice of riding on brake-beams and depart for new fields.

25 Years Ago
That property owners of this city are eager to keep abreast of the spirit of progress everywhere apparent in Southern California, is made evident this week by the fact that more than four miles of street paving will be signed up within a few days, and the city trustees will be asked to proceed with the work immediately under provisions of the state law. Four main thoroughfares are today ready for paving. These are the unpaved portions of Los Angeles street, Broadway, Lemon and Philadelphia streets. A number of other streets among them Olive, Kroeger and Melrose street from Center to Broadway; Charttes and Cypress streets, from Los Angeles to Lemon and Clementina street from Broadway to Cypress are also in line for improvement.
A notable addition to the paving area on Lemon street was made this week when C. E. Halcomb announced his readiness to sign up from Sycamore street to North. Mr. Holcomb has already signed up his frontage on Los Angeles street amounting to 800 feet. On Broadway Alexander Henry has matters well in hand, the frontage signed being sufficient to carry paving from East street to Lemon. H. Deutsch of Los Angeles has signed up 500 feet at the corner of Center and Lemon.

Mr. Martin Classen and Mr. J. C. Stege have each been victimized lately by bogus money being passed upon them. The $5 United States notes are rather poorly executed counterfeits and do not require very close inspection to be detected. The treasury department has notified the secret service of the Pacific Coast that a new counterfeit $10 silver certificate is in circulation. It is of the series of 1880, James Gilfillan, treasurer, D. K. Bruce, register, Treasury No. 369,780. The note is blotchy, blurred and soiled.

Bender and Selbernagle have the contract. The building will be completed in 90 days. It will be occupied when finished by Nagel's hardware store, and the premises at the corner will be remodeled for use by the newly organized Southern County Bank. The new building will be an ornate structure of pressed brick, with plate glass front, and will be one of the handsomest in this neighborhood.
"In ten years time California will be the marvel of the world," said Emil B. Dreyfus, the San Francisco millionaire, who was in town on Monday in company of Samuel C. Wiel of that city. "We are making marvelous progress in San Francisco since the fire six years ago—and I see that Anaheim is keeping up with the spirit of progress along with the other towns in the state."
Mr. Dreyfus came south to look into his property here. He and his brother, Walter Dreyfus, are among the largest contracting firms in the northern metropolis. Their business was entirely destroyed by the fire, but they have entered largely into the work of rebuilding the city. In company of Joseph Helmsen and Adolph Thomas, Messrs. Dreyfus and Weil drove to the oil fields in the afternoon. Both are interested in oil and may make investments in the oil lands in this vicinity.

But let him have the lines, and he will make time that will top the record of any horse in this vicinity. Mr. Wm. R. Harker, the Anaheim Saddler, was invited to take a ride behind this animal with Mr. Pierce, and the latter let the horse go. The harness man pulled his hat down over his ears and held on to the side and back of the seat with a death grip. How that animal did make time was surprising and people on the street stood in amazement to witness the exciting scene. The driver finally slacked the animal up, but it was exciting while it lasted.

Pitcher-Manager String McDonnell is playing the hero role as his Anaheim Valencias are making a strong bid to get into the final round of the Shaughnessy playoff for the championship of the National nightball league.
Twice the lanky gunner has faced Joe Rodgers' Huntington Beach crew and twice he has turned back the defending champions. The series now stands at two games for each club with the fifth contest to be played at Huntington Beach tomorrow night.
In the meantime San Bernardino has built up a 3 to 1 edge over Santa Ana with hopes of ending the series tonight when the two clubs play at San Bernardino.
Anaheim knotted the count with the Oilers last night by pushing over runs in the fourth and eighth innings while McDonnell was holding the beach club to a lone tally. The Valencias drove Chico Sabella from the mound in the eighth and Louie Neva came to the rescue. Neva went to work with the bases loaded, one run in and one run out. He got past Leavitt Daley by the strike out route and then Mal Higgins drove a high fly into left field that George Murray captured.
The Mad Russian had a chance to be the hero in a large way when he came to bat in the ninth with two men out and two on base. McDonnell forced him to bounce to Daley who tossed to Preble, forcing Osborne for the final out.
Anaheim's first tally came in the fuorth with Preble's line single to center driving in the run. Ran Bell slapped a single through shortstop with the sacks loaded in the eighth to account for the winning counter.
McDonnell hurled masterful ball throughout. He ran into his most serious trouble in the eighth when he had men on second and third, only one away and Al Reboin at bat. Reboin helped the cause along by lining back to String who tossed to third for a double-play.
