IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of The Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago... August — 1882 Reports from Anaheim Landing are that the campers at that delightful resort are enjoying every minute of the time. One of the young men from Anaheim has his violin with him and there is no lack of dancing. Then there are many candy pullings and other amusements to while away the time. Among those at present camping there are: Mrs. J. W. Landell and family, Mrs. Josephine Butler, Mrs. Hughes, Mrs. C. Mosseman, Miss Clara Moseman, Miss Marie Horstman, Mrs. Richard Melrose and family, Mrs. R. W. Scott and family, Mrs. Arthur Heiman and family, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Helman and family, Miss Bertha Boldt, Mrs. F. W. Koll, Miss Della Rust, Misses Lacey, Rev. and Mrs. J. A. Emery and family, Mrs. R. W. Northam and family, Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Smith and family, Mr. and Mrs. A. Meade, Mr. and Mrs. A. E. White, Mr. Ward, Mrs. Fred Laugenberger, Mr. Ernest Brownning, Mr. Victor Browning, Mr. and Mrs. Newham, Mrs. W. H. Harper. Mr. Charles Lorenz is building a fine residence at his vineyard. 50 Years Ago... August — 1907 Walter Johnson and Jack Burnett, the two Anaheim boys in the big eastern league, are holding their own in fast company and their work this week is of the gilt-edged variety. In a game against Cleveland, Johnson outpitched his rival, winning the game for Washington by a score of 7 to 2. Burnett has caught on with St. Louis, his batting is over 300, and his fielding is a feature in every game he plays. Miss Roerden of Placentia, who delivers butter in town twice weekly, had her buggy demolished in a run away accident on Friday. While in Hartfield's jewelry store, her horse, which had been left unhitched in front of the establishment, took fright at a passing auto and started to run. It was caught at Dickel's, but not before the rig had been badly wrecked. Manager Schwinkert of the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph company announces that an additional section to the switchboard in the local exchange office will be installed in a few days in order to meet the constantly increasing demand for telephone services.

Northam is about to add several rooms to his home, and work on Mr. Hippolyte Cahen's new dwelling will soon commence. Barns, fences, etc. are going up on all sides and every available carpenter has work contracted for months ahead. Mr. C. E. Leuard has returned from Forster City, nine miles south of San Juan Capistrano. He thinks that for a summer retreat that point is the finest in this part of the state. Excellent bathing, spreading sycamore trees, and good accommodations are among some of the advantages of the embryo city. At the meeting last Saturday, the Board of Town Trustees, in view of the fact that property had been assessed at about one fifth of its value, fixed the tax rate for the fiscal year 1882-83 at $1.00 on the $100 valuation. The tax roll amounts to $316,375. We are indebted to Mr. A. L. Pellegrin, the photographer for views of the streets of Anaheim as they appeared with the Fourth of July decorations. The views are finely taken and should be purchased as souvenirs of the noted celebration. The mail route between Santa Ana and San Luis Rey is as follows: Leave Santa Ana daily at 1 p.m., arrive San Luis Rey at noon the following day.

A number of friends were present at the ceremony and accompanied the happy couple on a short auto drive after the ceremony. Mr. Green of Miraflores sold 50 tons of chill peppers to Los Angeles parties at $22.50 per ton.
