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 January 10, 1889 The result of the annual target practice of the National Guard held during the month of September has been received. The percentage of Co. G is 29.23, and of the First Brigade 24.39 showing that our local guardsmen are somewhat in advance of the average shooting in this brigade. We stand third in the regimental average. Sergeant E. J. Pellegrin is the first nam upon the list of Co. G's marksmen with a score of 35, the highest in the state being 39. Privates Joseph Hatfield and William Berdrow follow with a score of 34 each. Captain Wood is next with 30. Corporal William Kroeger and Handsome Edgar White show up with a score of 30. Privates Joseph Blair and Fred Smythe have 29. Otto Hussman has 28 and Corporal E. F. Kellogg Alfred Pigott come around with the same score. Corporal Ernest Browning and Privates Oscar Luedke, W. W. Weaver and Ralph Blair have each 25, and are thus within the third class limit, which comprises more than making a percentage not less than 20 nor more than 80. They are entitled to receive the Bronze Bar attached to the marksman's badge. Our friend, Private Charles Wesley Alms, is the only member of the company disqualified as a winner of the state decorations, he having attended less than 50 per cent of drills during the year. Alms' score was 34 next to the 25 Years Ago DECEMBER 26, 1913 Friday and Saturday mornings last week the atmosphere was heavy with the black smoke from thousands of smudge pots which the orange growers had been using during the night to protect their groves from the frost. It drifted here principally from the Pomona and Ontario districts, where considerable damage was done to the crop and trees by the extraordinary freeze of last winter. Nothing worse than a slight hoar frost appeared in the Anaheim district and the lowest record made by the thermometer was 30 degrees. This is not considered dangerous to the fruit and the crop was not affected in the slightest degree. Even a freeze such as was experienced last year in many sections can do little or no damage this season, as most of the orchards will be protected by the smudge pots. These pots burn crude oil and from 60 to 100 to the acre are used, or will be, in case of another visitation like the one last January. Many Anaheim growers suffered so little last year that they did not consider it necessary to go to the expense of purchasing the pots. By mutual agreement the liquor dealers of Anaheim, wholesale and retail, have decided to close their establishments at 10:45 o'clock at night. All card tables and dice throwing will be discarded and Blair have each 25, and are thus within the third class limit, which comprises maiden making a percentage of not less than 20 nor more than 80. They are entitled to receive the Bronze Bar attached to the marksman's badge. Our friend, Private Charles Wesley Alms, is the only member of the company disqualified as a winner of the state decorations, he having attended less than 50 per cent of drills during the year. Alms' score was 34, next to the highest in the company. The wooden wedding of Mr. and Mrs. J. Wagner of Placentia was largely attended by people from Anaheim and this vicinity.

Dancing was indulged in until a late hour. The house was hardly large enough to accommodate the throng that gathered to congratulate the couple upon the happy conclusion of ten years of married life. Magdaline Eleanora Kraemer died January 3, 1889 in the 64th year of her age. She was born in Battenburg, South Germany, Sept. 4, 1825, came to America with her family in 1833 and settled in St. Clair county, Illinois, was married to Daniel Kraemer in 1843, came to California with her husband and family in 1887 and settled in North Anaheim.
