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 June 18, 1891 The graduating exercises at the Opera House on Saturday evening were largely attended by people who came into town from the entire countryside. The exercises were under the supervision of Prof. Grogan, who acted as master of ceremonies. The class was seated upon the stage and over them their motto "Laurels after Victories," depended from the ceiling. Miss Helen Bancroft officiated at the piano. The following program was rendered: Song, "Red, White and Blue;" Declamation, Harry Davis; Recitation, Nellie Weaver; Recitation, Bessie Bates; Declamation, Major Schultz; Recitation, Lottie Brown; Recitation, Zelma Bailey; Recitation, Mallah Godfrey. Oration, Blanchard Snyder. Presentation of Diplomas. The scholars acquitted themselves admirably, and each number on the program was roundly applauded. Blanchard Snyder was the only graduate. There is a vacant chair in the "Skat" club. Since Bob Wetzel put in such a mysterious disappearance the club has been without a president. Wetzel must have cleaned up $800 before he skipped—Great wasn't it. He is probably in Seattle by this time. The Board of Horticultural Commissioners met yesterday at Santa Ana and organized with Messrs. Ralph Burry, J. N. Rafferty and H. 25 Years Ago June 22, 1916 Water was turned into the new siphon of the Anaheim Union Water company in Horseshoe Bend Monday night. This is the largest siphon in California. It is 1053 feet in length, 66 inches in diameter and has a capacity of 5,000 inches. It was built by the Western Reinforced Concrete Pipe company, at a cost of $10,000. This siphon was constructed to take the place of the ancient ditch which was destroyed in the January floods. The company first proposed to build a wooden flume, but decided later to put in a concrete siphon. It will carry an immense body of water down into the Yorba reservoir whence it will be distributed to the ranchers.. Work on it was begun in March and a large force of men have been employed in its construction. Dick Menzel arrived in town Sunday on a visit to old time friends who were glad to see him. Dick is rated as one of the best bass instrument players in the coast and has filled many prominent engagements with some of the leading musical organizations throughout the country. Dick's solos upon the tuba have attracted attention from no less than Sousa, and the other great leaders, and he has been a valued acquisition to their bands at various times. Mr. Menzel while in town called on Charles Hille, who was years ago, a partner of the late August Home from Hollywood Mrs. Edward Kraeger, of Anaheim, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. M. C. Hausladen, came Fathers' Day to visit her parents on North St. Three Month Visitor Mrs. G. H. Avery is here visiting her sister, Mrs. Mary Hedges at 715 W. Center Street three months.

Since Bob Wetzel put in such a mysterious disappearance the club has been without a president. Wetzel must have cleaned up $800 before he skipped—Great wasn't it. He is probably in Seattle by this time. The Board of Horticultural Commissioners met yesterday at Santa Ana and organized with Messrs. B. J. Perry, I. N. Rafferty and H. Hamilton present. Uncle Hiram Hamilton of Orange was elected president, and I. N. Rafferty secretary. The county is divided into three districts, Anaheim being first, Orange second and Santa Ana third. Anaheim district takes in all the territory this side of the river. The line runs from the Southern Pacific bridge, across the Santa Ana river, due west to the ocean. Mr. Perry is the commissioner for this district, and is the right man in the right place. All complaints of neglected or scale ridden orchards should be referred to him. Grasp the hand of Ed Morgan and you'll grasp the hand that grasped Sullivan's. He went to Los Angeles to see the big bruiser—says he wouldn't miss seeing him for the world—and declares that John L. is just too sweet to live. Miss Nellie Gardiner, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alex Gardiner of Orangethorpe, was married on Monday afternoon to F. M. Shrode of Duarte. We tender the happy couple our congratulations.

Mr. Menzel while in town called on Charles Hille, who was years ago, a partner of the late August Menzel Sr., in the bakery business. Mr. Hille gave a photograph of Dick's father to him, which was taken over forty years ago, and which Mr. Hille had in his possession ever since. It is needless to say that he values the photo highly. On Tuesday Dick departed for San Diego whither he went to arrange for an engagement on the vaudeville circuit. J. A. Wilson, city recorder of Santa Ana was buried Saturday. He was a colonel in the Confederate army during the war and was an intimate friend and neighbor of General Robert E. Lee. He was the last survivor of the eight pall bearers of General Lee.
