ELKS LODGE
Every town of importance in Southern California contributed its delegation to the gathering of the Protective Brotherhood of Elks which assembled in Anaheim Tuesday night to assist in the birth of the baby lodge, which is the 1345th to be instituted in the United States. About two thousand visitors were present among whom were representatives from nearly every city in Southern California. A large circus tent had been secured and pitched at the corner of Chartres and Lemon streets in which the work of institution and the banquet were held. Ninety-nine charter members compose the new lodge. There were one hundred signatures on the roll, but the death of Largo Bayha created a vacancy which could not be filled. The officers installed were: Exalted Ruler H. G. Ames; Esteemed Leading Knight, H. P. Noll; Esteemed Loyal Knight, T. L. McFadden, Esteemed Lecturing Knight, W. W. Davis; Secretary, M. C. Goff; Treasurer, F. A. Backs Jr., Tyler, A. V. Vail; Trustees, M. W. Mar50 Years Ago

CITY ELECTION
The city election last Monday passed off quietly, a very light vote being cast. There was no contest except for marshal, and the excitement was not what could be termed at fever heat. Voting was by the Australian ballot system, it being the second time the system had been tried here—the first being at last year's county high school election, when we buried the little high school scheme out of sight. One hundred and fifty-five votes were cast, eight of them being thrown out. Of these, five were stamped improperly, and three were not stamped at all. The vote is as follows: For trustees, long term, E. J. Pellegrin, 115; C. O. Rust 106; short term, S. Littlefield 105; for treasurer, Plez James 103; clerk, Max Nebelung 106; marshal Frank Steadman, 88, Wm. Schumacher 59.
Frank Steadman is elected city marshal and we believe will make a No. 1 officer. The other gentlemen elected are well fitted for the offices they are chosen to fill.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
The Lesson-Sermon subject all Churches of Christ, Scientist on Sunday, will be “Doctrine Atonement.” This quotation from Paul’s letter to the Hebrews is Golden Text: “Christ is not entailed into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of true; but into heaven itself, not to appear in the presence of God for Us.”
Included in the Lesson-Sermon is an experience of the Apostle Philip who went to the city, Samaria to preach Christ to people. “and,” reads the account as given in Acts, “the people who one accord gave heed unto their things which Philip spake, heart and seeing the miracles which did. For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. And there was great interest in that city.”
Selections from “Science Health with Key to the Scriptures” by Mary Baker Eddy include the following: “Jesus’ teaching and practice of Truth involve such a sacrifice as makes us adhere to his disciples, speaking for their day only but for all time.” “Highest earthly representative God, speaking of human ability reflect divine power, prophetical said to his disciples, speaking for their day only but for all time.” “He that believeth on me works that I do shall he do all and ‘These signs shall follow that believe.’”

ANAHEIM EBELL
Anaheim Ebell was hostess at the fifth annual convention of Orange County Federated Women's Clubs on Saturday. The addresses were excellent. One of the most interesting was the splendid talk on "The Old Missions of California" given by Mrs. Victor Montgomery of Santa Ana. Mrs. Montgomery has been interested in the early history of our state for many years, especially the old Missions and her talk was intensely interesting and instructive. Another pleasing number on the program was the violin solo by Clarence Chamberlain. One hundred and forty-five were seated at the four-course luncheon. The waitresses were high-school girls dressed in white with white and green caps. They were Misses Jessie Boyd, Frances Backs, Edith Simpson, Leone Hauck, Mary Owens, Harriett Corwin, Elsie Jesserun and Ruth Coons. The newly elected officers are: President, Mrs. E. W. Hauck of Anaheim; Vice President, Mrs. Talbert of Huntington Beach; Corresponding secretary, Mrs. Hoppe of Fullerton; Recording secretary, Mrs. S. W. McColloch of Placentia; Treasurer, Mrs. Cushman of Santa Ana; Auditor, Mrs. Carrie Drake of Yorba Linda.
OLDEST CLUB
Mrs. John Hartung entertained the Ladies Euchre club at her West Center street residence last Thursday afternoon. Mrs. Joe Carroll won the first prize, a gold almond dish. Mrs. Edgar Hartung the second, gold salt and pepper shakers, and Miss Dora Zeyn the consolation, hand-painted salt and pepper shakers. Appetising refreshments were served at the close of the game. The Ladies' Euchre club is the oldest social club in Anaheim having been born 22 years ago. Mrs. Hartung and Mrs. Adolph Rimpau
FIX THAT BRIDGE
The bridge on North street be low Palm is in a shockingly back condition, and should be put in immediate repair. A subscriber informs us that while crossing it with his team a few days ago one of his horses came clear breaking its leg by stepping through a hole in the structure. An accident was averted only by prompt assistance. Fix that bridge.
OCELEBRATED PIANIST
The celebrated pianist Paderewski, now in this country, is not the spring chicken his business managers would fain have to believe him to be. It is said that he was a suiter for Henena Modjeska's heart and hand as far back as 1864, at which time he was a professor of piano playing in the conservatory at Crakow. But he was cut out by Count Charles Bozenta Chlapowski, political editor of the Crakow Daily Polander. It is furthermore narrated that the constant practice of eating lomons has given Paderewski's hair the peculiar tint and still more peculiar willowyness which makes it so remarkable a feature of the artist.
HOG BUSINESS
Uncle Jake Everhardy has been buying up a lot of hogs the past few weeks, and tells of a farmer down in the Peat lands, who bought about a hundred shoats for a mere trifle and after fattening them on boiled potatoes sold $1200 worth out of the lot in no time. There seems to be big money in the hog business.

ABUNDANT CROP

Rust 106; short term, S. Littlefield 105; for treasurer, Plez James 103; clerk, Max Nebelung 106; marshal, Frank Steadman, 88, Wm. Schumacher 59.
Frank Steadman is elected city marshal and we believe will make a No. 1 officer. The other gentlemen elected are well fitted for the offices they are chosen to fill.
