IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of The Anaheim Gazette by MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 88 Years Ago... August, 1871 In view of the discouraging circumstances under which we have labored, the amount of improvements made in the southern part of the county during the past year and a half, is something wonderful. We cite only a few instances with which we are familiar. In the present limits of Farview school district there was at the beginning of last year not more than ten families, there are now more than seventy-five. They have a school house, paid for. The new colony of Westminster has sprung up and a number of families already located. To the south of Santa Ana dwelling of many new comers are dotted over the fertile plain from the river southward to the great San Joaquin ranch. Of these the dwellings of J. Cosad and E. W. Squires deserve special mention. A thriving town, Santa Ana has sprung up in the midst of the settlement and does a flourishing trade with the surrounding country. The town of Richfield has been started and a new port opened at San Joaquin Bay, whence the settlers derive much of their lumber supply. In Anaheim many valuable buildings have been erected, two of which the residences of Phil Davis and H. Kröger are being completed. Two fine hotels are also to be built. In the way of water works Chapman and Company have expanded some $20,000 upon their new canal and flume and many ditches have been constructed. Hana Weisel, the twelve-year-old son of Peter Weisel, injured the thumb of his right hand in a corn sheller on Sunday last. Although the thumb was quite badly mashed, amputation will not be necessary, and the lad was yesterday reported to be improving under the treatment of Dr. Lee. The partnership heretofore existing between J. Harry Whitaker and George Witaker at Buena Park has been dissolved, George and B.C. Robinson under the firm is composed of J. Harry Whitaker and B.C. Robinson under the firm name and style of Whitaker and Co. Bishop Francis Morel, of Los Angeles, who recently resigned the bishopric of southern California after a long term of years, came down Monday to remain on a short visit with Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Rimpau. George Boyd has a force of young ladies packing lemons at Conrad's old building on Adele street. August Nagle and bride returned from the east on Monday afternoon. They are temporarily the guests of Louis Miller and wife. No MWD Water new port opened at San Joaquin Bay, whence the settlers derive much of their lumber supply. In Anaheim many valuable buildings have been erected, two of which the residences of Phil Davis and H. Kroeger are being completed. Two fine hotels are also to be built. In the way of water works Chapman and Company have expended some $20,000 upon their new canal and flume and many ditches have been constructed. To give an idea of the amount of lumber used, we will simply state that our two lumber firms at Anaheim Landing have this year sold over two million feet of lumber and besides this several cargoes have been sold at Newport. Mr. John Fischer informs us that the question of the insurance of the late Planters House has been settled and that the proceeds immediately to the erection of a new building upon the site of the old one, to be 72 feet front on each street and two stories high. The nucleus of an excellent brass band has been formed among us by four public spirited citizens who deserve praise for their efforts in this behalf. Messrs. E. A. Pulley, Andrew Cretty, Albery Johnson and George Sipple compose the present force. The band was organized about four months ago. Numerous instances of petty stealing have occurred lately. Mr. Bittner's fruit trees were robbed of their fruit and Mr. Phil Hammes has suffered two visitations, first losing a valuable chess table and set of chess men, and secondly a couple of clocks, one of which was a valuable regulator and had several articles of value inside it, all of which was carried off. A fine refreshing thunder shower occurred yesterday morning, commencing about 4 o'clock and continuing two hours. We feel better. Born in this city on the 16th to the wife of M. Callisher, a daughter. 63 Years Ago ... August, 1896 The water board met on Saturday. George Boyd has a force of young ladies packing lemons at Conrad's old building on Adele street. August Nagle and bride returned from the east on Monday afternoon. They are temporarily the guests of Louis Miller and wife. No MWD Water Shortage Seen For City Homes Despite the record low rainfall this year, there will be no water shortage in the Southern California areas served by the Metropolitan Water District, including Anaheim, thanks to the Colorado River Aqueduct, Robert B. Diemer, General Manager and Chief Engineer of the District, said this week. In seeking to ally any fears of water rationing because of shortages, Diemer pointed out that during the recently completed fiscal year the District delivered more than 600,000 acre-feet of Colorado River water to the coastal plain of Southern California. "This is the largest amount of water the District has delivered in any one year since the Aqueduct was placed in operation in 1941, and by early next year we able to deliver double that amount or more than one billion gallons of water a day," the District official declared. He said that the increased deliveries will be made possible by the $200 million Aqueduct expansion program started by the District in 1952 and scheduled for completion early in 1960. Anaheim Doctor Heads Heart Fund The large number of doctors serving with the Orange County Heart Association is a clear indication of the high regard that the medical profession holds for the work of the Association. Doctors recently elected as officers of the Association included Sidney J. Adler, M.D., Anaheim Born in this city on the 16th to the wife of M. Callisher, a daughter. 63 Years Ago ... August, 1896 The water board met on Saturday afternoon and levied an assessment of a dollar per share. The company must meet a note of $10,000 forthwith, and although a diligent search for money here and in Los Angeles resulted in locating the whereabouts of $14,000 that was promised the company, the most of it melted into thin air when it came to the borrowing point, and the company had no recourse but to slap an assessment. The Los Angeles banks are not loaning a cent. The banks are fortifying themselves all over the country, and when a loan of $23,000 was recently asked of one of the best known banks in southern California, for ninety days, the bankers laughed at the proposition, saying they did not care for the security — the borrower might just as well ask for twenty-five million. There will be no large loans made until after the election. Orange and Pedro are both talking of following the example set by Long Beach, and discorporating, and petitions are being circulated in both places, the first Heads Heart Fund The large number of doctors serving with the Orange County Heart Association is a clear indication of the high regard that the medical profession holds for the work of the Association. Doctors recently elected as officers of the Association included Sidney J. Adler, M.D., Anaheim president. Countinuing to serve on the board is Aldis A. Johnson, M.D., Anaheim. NEW TEACHERS HIRED Employment of five new teachers was approved by the Board of Trustees of the Anaheim High School District last week. They are Mrs. Norma L. Peterson, Fremont; Edwin Beamer, Trident; James R. Belt, Western; George A. Rosacker, Western; and Judy Johnson, Fremont or Orangeview. EXTENSION GRANTED The Anaheim High School Board of Trustees has granted an extension of 40 days' time to McKernie-Thelen, general contractor for the Walker Junior High School project because of the plasterer's strike. TAKES LEAVE Theodore J. Smith, Anaheim High School District warehouse truck driver began a two-week military leave of absence Monday. He will return Sept. 1.
