Lovers of base ball will have an opportunity of witnessing a winter schedule of games in this city, beginning early in October. J. E. Stewart has been granted a franchise and is now negotiating for new grounds. The leagues will include Los Angeles nines, as well as nines from Pasadena, Santa Barbara, San Bernardino and other live towns in Southern California. Walter Johnson will pitch for the locals. He will return from Washington next month, after the close of the season. Johnson is probably the most celebrated ball player in the east. He has been pitching great ball. He is with a tail-end club, and although Johnson has pitched gilt-edged ball, his team clings to the hindmost place. Meats has returned and will catch Johnson. All the other favorites are looked for, viz: Mott, Head, Isbell, Crips, Fuqua and possibly Jack Burnett. Stewart himself will appear at all games, and his fog horn voice, "He missed it; He missed it", will be a feature of the games.

Mr. Harry R. Hanna, a former valued attache of the Gazette, came in from Arizona on Monday for a visit to his parents. The fates have been kind to him since he left here two years ago and he is one of the few for whom Arizona has attractions. He will remain here several weeks.
Dr. Ellis was called hastily to Anaheim Landing Thursday to the relief of Theodore Lynell, Esq., who has been staying there for a few days. In arising from his bed on Thursday morning he in some way twisted the tendons of his knee, rendering the leg perfectly helpless and giving intense pain. The doctor describes it as a sprain of the worst kind, but no permanent injury is likely to result therefrom.

A band of forty young Indians who have been at work in the beet fields at Los Alamitos for some time past, boarded the Southern Pacific train at Loara on Tuesday for their home in the fastnesses of Arizona wilds. One of the bucks seemed to be very much under the influence of civilization.
C. O. Rust is preparing for the wine-making season, and will probably begin crushing grapes the middle of September. Other wine makers who will also start wine making next month are: Tim Boege, J. Casson and Fischer Bros. The quality of grapes is said to be superior to that of several years past and the yield is good.
