Utility sheriffs and investigators in the postoffice department were Rumor at Least One Ranch Is Signed Up There was a report in Anaheim today that at least one ranch in the vicinity of Orangethorpe-ave and the state highway had been leased for oil development. According to the report, the land lies east of the highway and north of Orangethorpe-ave, toward what is known as the ridge. The report follows the statement last week by rancheers in that vicinity that they had been approached by two different representatives of oil companies seeking leases. However, none of those who were talking last week have signed up. They said, however, that they had heard the report that leases had been signed in the vicinity. The Zobellen interests of Los Angeles, are dickering for a well on their property, the "Reagan place," near the Santa Fe depot in Fullerton, according to R. W. Edens, head of the Orange-co Drilling Co. ARTICLES FILED BY OWNERS OIL CO. Articles of incorporation were filed today at Santa Ana by the Owners of Oil Co.

S. mail truck here on Thursday night were believed to have used in which to make their escape was found abandoned in Santa Monica boulevard, without any lights, later that same night, and now is in the hands of the Santa Monica police, according to a report telephoned to the sheriff's office today. The make of the car is said to correspond with that supposed to have been used by the bandit trio. Articles found in the car indicate that a woman may have been a passenger in it, beach officers say. Another clew was furnished the postal officials by the city marshal of San Fernando, who reported that there was a "suspicious looking" abandoned car at that place. This also was being probed. Berlin to Offer Three-Fourths of Indemnity LONDON, March 5—The German delegate to the indemnity conference engaged on new proposals. He said to equal three-quarters of the amount of reparations demanded by the allies. A long memorandum was received by the Germans from Berlin during the morning. Earl Beatty, admiral of the British fleet, had a conference with Premier Lord George, and it was reported that they discussed sea measures to be put into effect to enforce the allies' indemnity decisions. The Daily News expressed the view that a new German offer would be made Monday approximating the Paris proposals and subject to re-examination by the allies at the end of five years in the light of the economic situation existing in Germany at that time. FINAL TRIBUTE PAID CHAMP OLARK TODAY WASHINGTON, March 5—In the hall of the house, where for 26 years he fought the battles of his party, the body of Champ Clark reposed in state today, while the nation's capital paid tribute.

The company plans to put down its own well on a lease of more than 200 acres at Hansen station west of Anaheim. Edens Says Big Firm Seeks 500-Acre Lease There is an old belief that there is a pool of oil under all of Orange co. That such a boiler appeals to others than those who live here is demonstrated by the attitude of some of the big oil operators. R. W. Edens, one of the best known local oil men, is authority for the statement that he has received an offer from a big oil syndicate to put down a test well anywhere in Orange-co where 500 acres of land can be secured in one lease. Mr. Edens says the proposition comes from a big, reliable organization and that there are no strings or qualifications attached except that there must be a minimum of 500 acres, or, in other words, a lease large enough to make it worth while in case oil is found. Mr. Edens has his eyes on several places where it is believed sufficient acres is available and it is not impossible that there will be some entirely new developments in the near future.

General, Mails Begin to Arrive Fred Minyard, driver of the Anaheir fire truck, has an interesting problem. If it takes a post card ten years to come from Los Angeles to Anaheim how long will it take to send a letter to New York. Fred's trouble is occasioned by the fact that, altho he has been married eight years, this afternoon he received a letter from an old sweetheart, mailed at Los Angeles Nov. 19, 1911. The card was written Nov. 28, 1911. He has not seen the girl in nearly nine years and does not know where she is. Where the card has spent all these years he does not know, but he hopes that if a legacy is left him in New York that the letter notifying him to the effect will travel faster than this card did. Shippers Strike for Lower Freight Rates CHICAGO, March 5.—Shippers of the country are on strike against the high rates charged by carriers. The strike is aimed to obtain lower freight rates, just as the buyers' PRESIDENT STARTS TASK OF ALLOTTING 50,000 U. S. JOBS New Executive to Consult Cabinet Members on Naming Assistant Secretaries. WASHINGTON, March 5.—President Harding settled down for work at his desk in the executive offices adjoining the White House today. One big job facing him was that of passing out jobs—some 50,000 of which will ultimately be filled from a list of applicants several times as large. But only a few of the most important received attention today. Harding expected to consult cabinet members further today regarding the assistant secretaryships of the various departments. Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., has already been named assistant secretary of the navy. Ex-senator Thomas W. Miller of Delaware is mentioned as a possible assistant secretary of war."He saw service in France and was active in organizing the American Legion. Henry P. Fletcher, former ambassador to Mexico, has been chosen under-secretary of state but there are Tustin Plans to Form High School District At a largely attended meeting of the Tustin Farm Center last night it was enthusiastically determined to form a Tustin high school district pending probable passage of the bill proposing to compel every grammar school to become part of some high school district. Anticipating the utcome of last night's meeting, petitions to form a high school district had already been placed in circulation. A number of residents of Tustin are opposed to becoming annexed to Santa Ana high school district on the ground that it would raise their taxes. Others will fight vigorously any attempt to organize a Tustin high school district, declaring that even if the district is organized a large share of the students would continue to go to the Santa Ana institution. The plan outlined by C. E. Utt and others is for organization steps to be taken so that the Tustin high school district can be quickly formed should the law be passed. If it is not passed, the project for forming a Tustin high school district will be dropped. Those favoring a plan for a new district assert that should Tustin be annexed, the district will pay $33,725 a year into the high school fund. "All country districts would pay vastly more proportionately to the number of pupils they send than would the towns," says a mimeographed statement being circulated at Tustin. WELL KNOWN CYPRESS MAN PASSES AWAY R. E. Vaughn, 55, a resident of Cypress, well known in Anaheim, passed away at the Anaheim sanitarylunar on Friday afternoon, following a short illness. He leaves no near relatives excepting a brother at Torrance, and a sister in Texas. His wife died five years ago.

This will be assessed to owners of 115 lots between Lemon and Citron-sts. Some of the lots which will face on the extended street will be given credit with benefits of $250. Most of the assessments, however, will run from $7.50 to $50 per lot. The Catholic orphanage lies along most of the north side of the extension. However, there is a strip of about five feet between it and the new street which precludes assessments upon the sisters. The new street is 523 feet long. Work of cutting it thru will begin in about 60 days. Shippers Strike for Lower Freight Rates CHICAGO, March 5.—Shippers of the country are on strike against the high rates charged by carriers. The strike is aimed to obtain lower freight rates, just as the buyers' strike of last year forced down commodity prices. A conference of shippers of the country has been called in Chicago on March 14 to discuss shipping and transportation problems. The present high prices are killing business, the shippers say. Farmers' organizations, manufacturers' and consumers' organizations were invited to send representatives to the meeting. The conference will not be especially antagonistic to the carriers, it was pointed out by those who issued the call. In explaining the seriousness of the situation, shippers' organizations today declared shipping had dropped off to such an extent that where there was a shortage of 100,000 cars a week at this time last year there is now an excess of approximately 340,000 cars weekly. HOW ANAHEIM WINS FRIENDS Dr. J. I. Montgomery, who was superintendent of the Portland Commons Mission and is also connected with the Worlds Faith Missionary Assn., the Bethel Mission of Woods, Ore., came to California to find a pleasant location to spend the winter and saw nothing that exactly suited him until he was approaching Anaheim when he said to his wife "This looks better to me than anything I have seen." his wife agreeing with him they stopped for a few days at the city free camping ground and later rented a tent near the Orange and Lemon packing house. While here he met Evangelist Olson, who also had decided Anaheim ahead of all other So. Calif. towns after traveling from Rhode Island to try our fine climate. They decided that they would build their gospel car here and make it their winter headquarters and are some of the most enthusiastic boosters of our beautiful little city. They think Orange co-can be bent and nowhere can there be found a little city that treats tourists and strangers more kindly than Anaheim. IT'S A TURNIP. NOT A POLICEMAN'S BEET There is a turnip on exhibition in the office of Frank Steadman, city marshal, that would grace any agricultural show in the west without a doubt. It was raised by Al-Pape west of Anaheim and measures 26 inches around and weighs seven pounds. Mr. Steadman says he will years he does not know, but he hopes that if a legacy is left him in New York that the letter notifying him to the effect will travel faster than this card did. Harding expected to consult cabinet members further today regarding the assistant secretaryships of the various departments. Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., has already been named assistant secretary of the navy. Ex-senator Thomas W. Miller of Delaware is mentioned as a possible assistant secretary of war. He saw service in France and was active in organizing the American Legion. Henry P. Fletcher, former ambassador to Mexico, has been chosen under-secretary of state, but there are three assistant secretaryships to be filled. Positions on the interstate commerce commission, the internal revenue commission, the federal farm loan board, the railroad labor board, together with many others, are to be filled in the near future. J. J. Esch, defeated for re-election to congress from Wisconsin last November, will be offered a place on the interstate commerce commission. Howard Mannington of Columbus, O., long interested in public utility questions, may be offered the other vacant post. Judge Welliver, student of economic questions, who was associated with Harding during the campaign, is expected to be offered a position on either the federal trade commission or the tariff board. Ex-Senator Chamberlain of Oregon, a Democrat, is sure to receive a minority appointment to the shipping board. Harding will leave the filling of thousands of postmasterships and minor approval positions to cabinet members. Meanwhile the White House today with its gates open for the first time since the war was declared, presented an old-time picture. Hundreds roamed over the lawn and through the corridors. EUROPE'S DEBT FIRST HARDING PROBLEM WASHINGTON, March 5.—Europe's 10,000,000,000 debt to the U.S. was at the top of the calendar today as one of the most urgent problems pressing for adjustment under the new administration.

Keep It That Way This Paper Believes in the People and Desires Nothing Better Than Their Continued Confidence. TWENTY-FOURTH YEAR U. S. SENATOR No Sign Necessary In Groom Chicken Yard Rivalry among the biddles still continues. This time it is the Rhode Island Red hens of Mrs. Richard Groom, 614 Zeyn-st, which have stepped into the lime light with a record that beats the previous ones mentioned in The Plain Dealer. Mrs. Groom had 14 hens and during February her egg crop amounted to 268 eggs. The hens are all young ones and began laying when they were five montha old. They have been on the job ever since and Mrs. Groom is justly proud of them. She says they do not need a sign in their yard to make them strive for honors. And here comes the personal contribution from F. W. Baker, 317 N. Los Angeles-st, whose letter will tell its own tale: "I see in your valuable paper of the 4th lot that some good laying hens are owned in Anaheim as well as in Fullerton, and as I keep a record of the eggs from my nine premium R. J. Reds, I got down my record book and I find during February they layed 182 eggs. All are pulets except one two-year-old hen, and her eggs weigh 3½ ounce each. One of the pulets did not commence to lay until Feb. 17th, so I think I can claim first honors for my Reds to date. Will say that I think they are the most perfect in feather in Orange-co. No smut or pale underfeathers, rich red clear to the skin. Who can beat the above? F. W. BAKER, 317 N. Los Angeles-st." 20-YEAR-OLD FIGHT ENDS IN GUNPLAY AT CAPITAL TODAY Henderson, of Nevada is Painfully Wounded by Assailant Named Grock. WASHINGTON, March 5—Former Senator Henderson of Nevada was shot and painfully wounded today by a crank in the senate office building. Henderson's assailant gave the name of Grock and said he was from Nevada. Police said that Grock was mentally unbalanced. Henderson's friends stated that Grock had a disagreement with him in Nevada 20 years ago and that Grock had been following Henderson about ever since. He came to Washington this week determined to get "a settlement out of Henderson," he told the police. Henderson, whose term in the senate expired yesterday, was in his office cleaning up, preparatory to returning to Nevada when Grock entered and demanded to see him at once. Members of Henderson's office force asked him to wait a minute, but he insisted on being admitted to Henderson's private office. He made so much disturbance that Henderson came out and said to him: several times as news of the most attention today to consult cabar today regard secretaryships of hens are owned in Anaheim as well as in Fullerton, and as I keep a record of the eggs from my nine premium R.I. L. Reds, I got down my record book and I find during February they layed 182 eggs. All are pullets except one two-year-old hen, and her eggs weigh 3¼ ounce each.

No smut or pale underfeathers, rich red clear to the skin. Who can beat the above? F.W. BAKER, 317 N. Los Angeles-st." And here's another: "Don't you think my hens also did their share in the 28 days of February? I have 10 Andalusions and two Plymouth Rock hens. They laid 231 eggs and two of these had double yolks. Seven of the Andalusions are nine months old.—MRS. CLEMMER, 119 W. South-st. School In the Ozarks; Dream That Came True A large number of our people remember John Brown, the evangelist from Arkansas, who came to Anaheim several years ago, and who has been at Huntington Beach for its Summer sessions for many years. He went to Arkansas as a young man and worked in a line kiln. He had no education, and few prospects. One night, after a hard day's work in the kiln, he went up town and saw the Salvation Army in action, and was converted. This changed his whole life and started him on a career of self education and conservation which has made him one of the foremost evangelists of today. He recently finished one of the greatest meetings ever held in Oakland, speaking to nearly 5000 people nightly, and the last night folks were on the roof so eager were they to see and hear. From the start of his career he has had a dream. That dream was to found a school for poor boys and girls, where they might get a practical education, learn a trade and earn their way while doing so. It was to be a Christian school, in which the Bible was to be taught to every student, but interdenominational. To the founding of this school he decided all his earthly possessions, including a finely stained Jenny farm and his beautiful home in Siloam Springs, Ark., reserving nothing. This dream of his came to fruition not quite two years ago, and last year saw 75 boys and girls gathered from every quarter of the country there, and this year there are nearly double that number. There is a farm of 316 acres which is cultivated by the students under scientific direction, a large printing plant where the "American Evangelist" and "The Southwestern," the college magazine, are published, all operated by the students under the most competent direction. Other trades are taught. In fact, every student must work four hours per since. He came to Washington this week determined to get "a settlement out of Henderson," he told the police. Henderson, whose term in the senate expired yesterday, was in his office cleaning up, preparatory to returning to Nevada when Grock entered and demanded to see him at once. Members of Henderson's office force asked him to wait a minute, but he insisted on being admitted to Henderson's private office. He made so much disturbance that Henderson came out and said to him: "It is not convenient for me to see you today. You will have to come in tomorrow or some other day." "I will see you now." said Grock, drawing a revolver. He began shooting. Henderson threw up his right arm and a bullet hit him in the wrist, passing through the wrist. Grock was disarmed by Henderson and his office force, assisted by Senator Fernald of Maine, who had just entered the office. Henderson was taken to the office of Senator, Ball, Delaware, who is a physician. Grock was taken in charge by capitol police. Ball said the bullet ranged down into the fleshy part of the forearm, missing the bone. Grock was taken to the New-Jersey avenue police station. County Assessor Will Begin Work on Monday Do you own property in Orange co? If so, you are, of course, subject to paying what has been termed the one thing that is as sure as death—taxes. Beginning Monday taxpayers of the county will be called upon to receive visits from men whose duty it will be to ascertain the amount of assessable property individuals may have. And further according to a polite announcement, by County Assessor James Sleeper, the taxpayers will be expected to treat the assessor's deputies with consideration, to the end that the deputies may not have to return a second time for data. The names of the deputies who will take the field Monday and who will keep busy until their task is completed in the time specified by law, the first Monday in July, were announced today by Assessor Sleeper as follows: Henry Vander Leck, San Juan Capistrano; Roy I. Smith, Tustin; E. F. Walte; Santa Anna; J. F. Fletcher; Orange; Frank Taughan, Anahiem; P. C. Woodward; Fullerton; Claude Ridgeway; La Habra; Frank McCarter; Newport Beach; C. W.

There is a farm of 316 acres which is cultivated by the students under scientific direction, a large printing plant where the "American Evangelist" and "The Southwestern," the college magazine, are published, all operated by the students under the most competent direction. Other trades are taught. In fact, every student must work four hours per day, and then may go to school four hours, with one hour for play, and two hours in the evening at a study hall. The board and tuition are furnished free. This is believed to be the most unique school in America. Only poor boys and girls are eligible, but they must be boys and girls of good character, and willing to work. Aptitudes are studied, and the aim is to fit the particular student for the job he can best do in life. Some are bing trained for preachers, evangelists and missionaries.
