IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Riles of The Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 88 Years Ago... June 24, 1871 A special to the Gazette from Sacramento says the entire Republican state ticket has been nominated. The candidates are: Governor Newton Booth, Lieut. Governor Romualdo de Pacheco, secretary of state Drury Malone, supreme judge (short term) A. C. Niles, (long term) Rhodes, comptroller James Green, treasurer, Bachi, surveyor General B. Gardner, attorney general J. F. Love, clerk supreme court Grant Taggart, superintendent of schools W. H. Bolander, state printer T. A. Springer, harbor commissioner J. A. McGlyn. On Tuesday last a social convention was held at the grand ranch of Ashcroft & Pryor, at San Juan Capistrano and at which Santa Margarita, San Luis Rey, Las Flores and Anaheim were represented by delegations, old and young, male and female. Preparations were made on a magnificent scale, and the gathering of the parties at noon was the signal for the beginning of a good time, which ended not until fourteen hours later. At night there gathered beneath the hospitable roof of Senor don Juan Abila a fine array of the beauty and aristocracy of the lower country, including the beautiful young lady from Santa Margarita, whose name we have forgotten.

He disposed of the ostriches for $200, and will in the future content himself with settling down to the humdrum of every day existence. The Professor will take back his barber shop and will abandon ostrich training. He didn't make a mint of money while away, but he got a whole lot of experience which will be valuable to him in his future life. The Professor was the feature of the show as long as it lasted. He wore, when driving his trained ostriches in the hippodrome, a pair of green silk trousers with gold fringe, red top patent leather riding boots, red silk cap, white shirt and diamonds throwing a flashlight big enough to be on the assessment roll. Plez James is said to be about to start a five cent restaurant in Los Angeles, together with a 5 cent lodging house. One of the 5 cent restaurants in that city feeds as many as 2700 daily, so it is said, and the proprietor's profits amount to upwards of $350 a month. A substantial meal is given consisting of a plate of soup, a piece of meat, bread and potatoes. For breakfast the bill of fare is a piece of bread, one bolled egg and a cup of coffee. Our informant tells us one would be surprised to see apparently well- magnificent scale, and the gathering of the parties at noon was the signal for the beginning of a good time, which ended not until fourteen hours later. At night there gathered beneath the hospitable roof of Senor don Juan Abila a fine array of the beauty and aristocracy of the lower country, including the beautiful young lady from Santa Margarita, whose name we have forgotten. Dancing—with native, American and Spanish, was the order of the occasion and it was late when the guests departed for their homes. The next day the festivities were transferred to the residence of Senor don Juan Foster at Santa Margarita, thirty miles below and we judge from numerous telegraph dispatches received from that place, that they are still being continued — and long may they continue. The new dwelling houses of Phil Davis & Bro. now being constructed on the site of the building lately burned on Center street, is to be two stories in height, and in other dimensions 50 x 75 feet. It is to be of the composite cottage style of architecture, and intended to eclipse in beauty and convenience the building lately destroyed by fire. C. Tustin announces that he will give six large lots to any society offering to build a church at his town, and will donate $100 toward building material. An attractive exertion is being made to raise enough money by subscription to purchase a fire alarm bell for Anaheim. The grapes in the vineyards at Anaheim are now about the size of hazelnuts, and where not infested with grasshoppers, have a very healthy appearance.

July 2, 1896 Deputy Assessor Jennings has completed his real property assessment and has turned his rolls into the assessor's office. The total county assessment will probably be what it was last year—ten million dollars. The personal property shows a decrease in places as compared with last year. Prof. Franz and Frank Eastman have returned from their circus trip, having forsaken the glamors of that sort of existence. The Professor is of the unalterable conviction that traveling with the circus is not all that it is cracked up to be.

Gets Honors Members of the Orange County Fair board of directors honored retiring member, W. F. Croddy of Santa Ana when Irvin C. Chapman, board president, presented Croddy with a plaque showing appreciation for 12 years of service on the board. Chapman lauded the long-time member of the board for his "uniting efforts and undying interest" in development of the annual fair and in building up interim use of the fairgrounds. Croddy had served on the fair board since before the fairgrounds were established in Costa Mesa. He began his 12 years on the board when the fair was held in Anaheim. In other business, the board of directors of the 32nd District Agricultural Association (Orange County Fair) awarded a $1,250 contract to the Orange County Neon Sign Co. of Garden Grove for installation of neon tubing at the fairgrounds turnstile entrance. Chapman remarked that installation of the "flashy" entrance is another step in a long-range Master Plan for development of the fairgrounds. The entrance is expected to be completed in time for the opening of the 1959 fair on July 14. Add a new look of charm and graciousness to your home with...
