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 July 23, 1891 The announcement of the death of John Fischer, which took place in Los Angeles on Sunday morning at 5 o'clock will be received with profound regret by his many friends in Anaheim. He was born in Hamburg, Germany, April 15, 1818, and came to Anaheim in 1861. He established the Planters' Hotel shortly after, and in 1865 built a large two story hotel which was burned to the ground in 1871. He rebuilt the hotel and it was again destroyed by fire on the morning of July 5th, a year ago. He lived continuously in Anaheim until some ten years ago, when he removed to Los Angeles. He was elected city assessor to Los Angeles several times. He leaves one son, "Fritz," and four daughters, all of whom are married. They are Mrs. J. I. Defries, Mrs. Geo. Hull, Mrs. F. C. McKinnie and Mrs. Robert Bain. In response to the mysterious announcement in the San Francisco papers a few days ago that an Orange county syndicate had raised $300,000 for an irrigation right on the shores of the new Salton sea in the Colorado desert, the Santa Ana Press rises to remark as follows: "It seems that a party of Orange county capitalists among whom are Plez James, Joel Parker, Sheldon Littlefield, Jos. Helmsen, W. M. McFadden and others are interested in a large body of land lying between In- 25 Years Ago July 27, 1916 These damp mornings are not ideal walnut weather and a number of the growers say the nuts are falling prematurely. However from some quarters reports are that the crop will be heavy notwithstanding the unfavorable climatic conditions. Dr. McFarlane has his ice factory working to full capacity, and is turning out a fine product, but is meeting with opposition on the part of some of the local ice-dealers, who are bucking the home industry because the proprietor has seen fit to put on a wagon soliciting retail trade, thereby coming into competition with them. Whether an ice war will be precipitated remains to be seen. John Selinger estimates that there remain about 5,000 carloads of oranges in southern California, out of a total aggregate estimated at 45,000 cars. The prices for Valencias this season have been good, and it is believed that by the end of the season, along about November 1st, very fancy prices will prevail. Many growers intend to hold their remaining crops until a later date, expecting to receive the increased price, which it is confidently said will be quoted. The navel crop this year was short, and together with an increased demand, has had a tendency to jump up the Valencia San Clemente Picnic Mr. and Mrs. J. V. Stuart Lincoln Ave. attended the California Game Breeders' Association picnic at San Clementine Sunny They took Mr. and Mrs. Tillow Long Beach with them.

Mr. Ta announcement in the San Francisco papers a few days ago that an Orange county syndicate had raised $300,000 for an irrigation right on the shores of the new Salton sea in the Colorado desert, the Santa Ana Press rises to remark as follows: "It seems that a party of Orange county capitalists among whom are Plez James, Joel Parker, Sheldon Littlefield, Jos. Helmsen, W. M. McFadden and others are interested in a large body of land lying between Indian Wells and the new lake. These gentlemen proposed some time ago to perfect a system of irrigation from the Colorado or New River for their land, and raised $300,000 for the purpose. That's where the $300,000 story came from. The forming of the Salton Sea has upset all their plans, but it is claimed now that the gentlemen will irrigate their land from the new sea. They visited the land some months ago. They dug a well on one section, finding water at twenty-two feet, and going through nineteen feet of red clay. On Tuesday Ben Kraemer and Fritz Ruhman took a run down to the Aliso canyon, where William Hill's threshing outfit is at work. Fourteen hundred sacks of grain are threshed daily by this outfit, and Mr. Hill expects to continue until the middle of September. There are two threshers at work on the ranch and they make things hum. One outfit works twenty hours a day and Hill's men put in about eighteen. Water is carted from the San Joaquin ranch, twelve miles distant. In the window of Miss Mosseman's millinery store is a beautiful specimen of the cactus, with several lovely dark red flowers in bloom upon its stems. It attracts great attention. There is an advertisement on the second page this morning that will interest carpenters. The Buena Park people are about to build a school house and they ask for proposals to do the work. Richard Krebs was stung by a stingray at the Landing while bathing one day last week. Although the sting was painful, no serious consequences resulted. While Joe des Granges was working on Mrs. Strodthoff's windmill last Saturday, he fell a distance of twenty feet, but was Valencias this season have been good, and it is believed that by the end of the season, along about November 1st, very fancy prices will prevail. Many growers intend to hold their remaining crops until a later date, expecting to receive the increased price, which it is confidently said will be quoted. The navel crop this year was short, and together with an increased demand, has had a tendency to jump up the Valencia market. The latter fruit can be kept on the trees until the holidays, and by the further fact that all other fruit is off the markets, strengthens the prediction that Valencia growers, will pick up a lot of easy money. The supervisors have called for bids to be opened August 2nd on a concrete bridge across the Santa Ana river on West Chapman avenue. Bids will also be opened on the same date on a wooden bridge at the Villa Park crossing of the Santiago creek, foundations for which have already been constructed.
