It is only by reorganizing that we can secure the benefits of future legislation. There is, we are told no other town in the state so governed—all have a common interest in securing the passage of such laws as will remedy present defects and confer needed benefits. Under the state law the government of a town of the class to which Anaheim will belong is rested in five trustees, a clerk (who is ex-officio assessor) and a recorder. The trustees, clerk treasurer and marshal are elected on the second Monday in April each even numbered year. The three last named officers hold office for four years, but the board at their first meeting must so classify themselves that three of their number shall go out of office at the expiration of two years and two at the expiration of four years. The recorder is appointed by the board. The trustees receive no salary. The salaries of the other officers are fixed by the trustees. 25 Years Ago April 10, 1913 The annual meeting of members of the Presbyterian church was held one evening last week with a large attendance present. Rev. F. W. Mitchell presided and W. A. Ross acted as clerk. The old board of trustees was given for the benefit of the orphans of St. Catherines academy and such is the interest and thusiasm shown in the affair that a large sum of money was realized. Among those taking parts in the production were George W. Hanler, interlocuter; soloists, Mia Louisa Paschall, Mrs. Speichhorn H. A. Dickel and Edward Backer reader, Miss Evelyn Finney; Spartish dancer, Miss Gonzales; Prinrose, W. F. Crossley; Honey-Black Evans, G. E. Hartley, Lew Docksteadder, H. E. W. Barnes, Bill Van, F. G.

Many original jokes and puns were gotten off by members of the troupe, no one was safe from the local satire artists. The benefit was an unqualified success. The demand for tickets was so great that a second performance was given at the opera house last evening, with a large crowd in attendance. Billy Franz' new goat, which arrived from Los Angeles one day last week, distinguished itself o being taken from the cars by partially eating the express company's bill of lading. This does not signify the goat has been in Schindler. Noes: None. An ordinance granting Messrs. J. Warren Smith, W. S. Bell and J. Wetherell power to lay mains for gas, fuel and power purposes through the streets was referred to the next regular meeting. The committee on improvements was instructed to look after proper cleaning of all streets. Engin Schneider was empowered to sell for the town pipes recently excavated, also to tar the new tank and make necessary connections with the new tanks. On motion a standing reward of $50 was offered to anyone giving information leading to the conviction of anyone breaking or otherwise injuring trees planted along the streets. A communication was received from the Bancroft company in regard to information as to the Vrooman act. On motion the clerk was instructed to write for necessary information. Bills were ordered for parties on whose premises new pipes were laid. Adjourned. Our worthy friend P. A. Schumacher, has been blessed with a son and heir who arrived on last Friday morning at the residence in Fullerton. Mother and child are doing well and Mr. Schumacher is correspondingly happy. The baby's name is Roy Fullerton Schumacher, being the first child born in Fullerton. May he live long and prosper. A party consisting of Miss Mary Vinson, Miss Louise Schneider, Miss Fannie Higgins, Miss Maggie Higgins, Miss Elizabeth Kuchel, Mr. Gilroy, Mr. Busselle, Mr. Sieger, Mr. Madden and others, went to Santa Ana on Monday evening to see the Wilbin comedy troupe. Superintendent Pierotti is having the ditch on Mr. Tuffree's flat cleaned out, it was filled in for quite a distance by the overflow from the Soquel canyon during the late heavy rains. The election at Santa Ana on Monday decided that the town shall be waived as a town of the fifth class. The following officers were elected: P. H. Look, Joseph Loch, and A. J. Howe of the Citizens or the Saloon ticket, as trustees; and Ed Tedford, clerk; Theo. Loup, treasurer; and Geo. T. Insley, marshal on the law and order or an saloon ticket. A full house greeted the presentation of the society minstrel show at the opera house Tuesday night. The entertainment was all unquainted success. Billy Franz' new goat, which arrived from Los Angeles one day last week, distinguished itself by being taken from the cars by partially eating the express company's bill of lading. This does not signify the goat has been properly fed, but as it gives squats of milk daily, Billy is considering continuing the treatment. Mrs. Margaret J. Bailey and daughter, Miss Miriam, were here from Los Angeles on Sunday spending the day with relatives. Jake Schumacher is in town latter part of the week, visiting relatives and friends. Charles Eygabroad and Howard Krause leave today for a short fishing trip to San Antonio Creek expecting to return tomorrow afternoon.

The election at Santa Ana on Monday decided that the town shall be renamed as a town of the fifth class. The following officers were elected: P. H. Look, Joseph Loch, and A. J. Howe of the Citizens or the Saloon ticket, as trustees; and Ed Tedford, clerk; Theo, Loup, treasurer; and Geo. T. Insley, marshal on the law and order or an saloon ticket. There were 608 votes cast and great excitement all day at the polls, but no disturbance. Owing to the organization into a town of the fifth class, another election will have to be held in about six weeks. As the town trustees have submitted to the qualified electors of the town of Anaheim the question whether the town shall become organized under the general laws of the state, we deem it proper to quote briefly from the Act pertaining to municipal corporations of the sixth class. The town is now working under a special charter, and as long as it does so, no law hereafter passed by the legislature.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCH “Are Sin, Disease, and Death Real?” This question is the subject of the Lesson-Sermon on Sunday in all Church of Christ, Scientist, branches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Massachusetts. A Scriptural selection in the Lesson-Sermon includes the verses from Matthew: “And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment: For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole. But Jesus turned film about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.” One of the correlative passages from the Christian Science textbook, “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures,” by Mary Baker Eddy, presents the statements: “The Principle and proof of Christianity are discerned by spiritual sense. They are set forth in Jesus’ demonstrations, which show—by his healing the sick, casting out evils, and de- BETTER CHANGE TO ELECTRIC COOKING NOW BETTER CHANGE TO ELECTRIC COOKING NOW TRADE-IN Your Old Stove for this Wear-Ever Set $1425 GUARANTEED RETAIL VALUE A Few Pennies a Day Buys Your New Electric Range TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS LIMITED TRADE-IN OFFER Now every woman can enjoy the cleanliness of electrical cooking.
