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 October 22, 1891 Since the city trustees began their onslaught upon the weeds on the streets our thoroughfares begin to look something like. But the streets in the neighborhood of the school house need cleaning badly, and the trustees would do a humane act in clearing them of weeds. The little school children might get lost in them. William Hill's steam thresher has been at work on the Coyotes ranch during this week. A couple of weeks ago it came up from the San Joaquin, where it threshed 90,000 sacks of grain this season. On Tuesday while at work on the Coyotes, a shaft broke, necessitating the shutting down of operations for the day. Five hundred sacks of grain were threshed on Tuesday before the break occurred, and operations began again yesterday. Today the outfit moves down to Tim Carroll's ranch in West Anaheim, where we shall try to pay it a visit tomorrow. Mrs. Joseph Bennerscheidt died at her home on Lemon street yesterday afternoon at 2 o'clock. She had been ill for a week and died from the effects of a stroke of paralysis. She was aged 36 years.
