These Files Contain the Only Authentic History in Prir. of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange county in the Days of the Pioneers. 50 Years Ago January 17, 1889 The Fairview school opened on Monday with about seventy scholars in attendance. The two departments are taught by Miss Baker and Miss Mead. With this number added to the 37 pupils in Prof. Ennis' department, and 49 in Miss Power's room, Miss Burton's 58, and Miss Clothier's 96 it will be seen that about 310 pupils attend school this city.

Installation of the officers of Anaheim Lodge, No. 207, F and A M occurred at the regular meeting on Monday night last. The following were installed for the ensuing year: P. Davis, W.

A. Pullen, Tyler. We are sorry to announce that Major Mason contemplates resigning control of the Planters Hotel. He departs for Pomona shortly to assume charge of the Palomares Hotel at that point. 25 Years Ago January 1, 1914 What promised to be a destructive fire broke out shortly after 4 o'clock Wednesday evening in the brick building at the corner of Chartres and Los Angeles streets occupied on the lower floor by the Plain Dealer office, the upper story being devoted to lodge services. The prompt and efficient service of the fire department prevented the entire destruction of the building and its content as the fire had gained considerable headway before being discovered. The blaze started in an ante room in the upper story which is used as a storage of trash and spontaneous combustion is believed to be responsible. Royal Neighbors had been holding a meeting in the hall during the afternoon but the ladies all declare that there had been no fire lighted by them and no matches used and it was impossible that a fire could have started from anything occurring at their meeting. The loss to the Masonic Lodge the Royal Neighbors and other orders meeting for division is fully accepted. Dr. G. H.

This is an excellent mode of keeping weeds down, which in some places are unsightly. The superintendent of streets has been doing good service the past few days in filling up depressions on our streets with sand which vastly improves the thoroughfares during the rainy season. The Sylph-like form of Br. Baker of the Santa Ana Standard was observable upon our streets last Saturday. We intended to interview him upon the question of county division, but he disappeared in the crowd of people who came to town to see about sugar beets.

Combining vivid desert distances, pine-crested mountains with a possible touch of snow at this season, and the dashing white-capped surf of miles of Pacific shoreline, the sightseer's outing by way of Palm Springs, Imperial Valley, San Diego and return to Los Angeles veritably leads "around the world."
