News of Fullerton CAR OF ORANGES TO CHICAGO IN 72 HRS. The boys around the Santa Fe station at Fullerton are telling with a good deal or bardonable pride of a recent famous run made by a carload of Fullerton district oranges to the Chicago market. The car in question was billed out for the Mutual Orange Growers' Assn. of Fullerton and left there on the evening of the 14th, arriving in the Chicago yards on the evening of the 17th, being in transit almost exactly 72 hours, a performance which comes fast on the heels of the best passenger trains. It is the fastest movement of a car of freight between the Pacific coast and the great lakes thus far recorded.

STANDARD LEAVES MILE DEEP WELL Hawthorne-Inglewood The Standard Oil Co. is tearing down the rig and moving away from Cienega No. 1 after drilling to 5,175 feet. At no time was there any indication of oil. Kestelman is the heavy operator at Hawthorne with three wells under way. Morton No. 1 stands cemented at 2600. Hicks stands cemented at 1875, Hicks No. 1 is drilling at 800 feet. All three wells of the Milwaukee Fountain Trust Co. are standing. Lausinger No. 1 at 1500 and No. 2 at 1035, and Lawndale No. 1 at 1050. The Standard Oil Co.'s Bohon No. 1 and Landowners No. 1 are both standing cemented at 1100 and 1030 respectively. From the Union Oil Co.'s Sommera No. 1 a report came in today that oil had been struck at 1200 feet. The report could not be verified. Accept Offer of Wm. Wallop for Elk Park After considerable study, Chairman Geo. M. Ross of the California Valencia Orange Show and his committee have decided to accept the offer of Wm. T. Wallop for the free use of five acres in the Elks' Park tract at Los Angeles and North-sts, for use in the valencia show, it was stated today. It was found that the city council were not quite sure as to what permanent use might be chosen for the Palm-st side of the Anaheim city park and they were rather doubtful as to the wisdom of cutting out as many orange trees as might be necessary to furnish room for the valencia show. They have assured the committee that by next year this problem will be fully solved and that the show can find a most desirable and permanent home in the MUTILATED MONEY That mutilated paper currency will be redeemed by the U.S. treasury department is generally known, but the rules prescribed for redemption are less clearly understood. It may be sold broadly that U.S. notes, treasury notes of 1890, fractional currency notes, federal reserve notes, federal reserve bank notes, national bank notes, gold certificates and silver certificates are redeemed at their face value if three-fifths or more of the original proportions remain. Also, if less than three-fifths, but clearly more than two-fifths of an original note or certificate is offered one-half the face value of the whole note will be paid. This does not mean that an entire three-fifths or two-fifths of the note in one piece must be presented. On the contrary, it is necessary only that the fragments aggregate the required proportions of the original note. It is possible, also, to receive full original value for a very small part of a note or certificate. Any portion of it less than three-fifths, if sufficient to identify the instrument of which it was a part, will be redeemed at its face value when accompanied by an affidavit of the owner or person having positive knowledge that the missing portions have been totally destroyed and stating the manner o f destruction. Into these general rules are written certain modifications. One prerequisite to the acceptance of a mutilated bank note is that the name of the issuing bank must be discernable. The department reserves to itself the exercise of such discretion as will be a protection against fraud, and the accuracy of some of its employees in determining the value and the identity of some of these mutilated notes is a revelation—From the Journal of the American Bankers Assn. OMGINATION OF THINGS THE ENGAGEMENT RING An old Roman custom decreed that on completion of an engagement to marry, the man should give the woman a plain iron ring as a memento of the contract. This came to be made gold, and was exchanged at the ceremony, but another ring APPROVE GREGORY PLAT The R. S. Gregory sub-division, tract 157 Jacaranda-pl, was accepted last night by Fullerton trustees. The sub-division of George Welton on E. Amerige-ave, was discussed again, but no action taken. Bob Strain said he wanted to look over the "lay of the land" before approving it. OIL CO'S FIND SOFT WATER Ben Dupuy, city engineer, reported to Fullerton trustees last night that water tests in wells of the Standard and Union Oil Co.'s, close to Fullerton, showed the water in these wells is softer than any of the city wells. The water proposition was discussed, but no action taken. SUB-DIVISION APPROVED Fullerton trustees last night approved a rural sub-division a mile north of Placentia on Bradford-ave. Approval was made on petition in accordance with the law which provides that rural sub-divisions must get the approval of trustees of the nearest incorporated city. SEEK CONTROL OF BARRANCA Steps were taken by Fullerton trustees last night to acquire control of the barranca west of Nicholls-ave, in order that its flood waters may be kept in the channel. Members of the board will call on Mr. Carhart relative to the matter. SHOW MOVIES AT SCHOOL "The Bottom of the World" was shown today at the Fullerton grammar school auditorium.

Shattuck, an oil worker, left yesterday over the Santa Fe for Elmira, N.Y. The Fullerton grammar school art class visited the art exhibit at the tact at Los Angeles and North Attica, for use in the valencia show, it was stated today. It was found that the city council were not quite sure as to what permanent use might be chosen for the Palm-st side of the Anaheim city park and they were rather doubtful as to the wisdom of cutting out as many orange trees as might be necessary to furnish room for the valencia show. They have assured the committee that by next year this problem will be fully solved and that the show can find a most desirable and permanent home in the park grounds. On Tuesday morning, Mr. F. M. Renfro, manager of the National Orange Show at San Bernardino phoned the local committee that the largest tent, owned by the National Show people could be rented by the valencia show. It will be enlarged to a depth of about 300 feet by the addition of sections from other tentage belonging to the National Show. The width of this tent is 130 feet. It is square at the ends, thus giving a maximum of space. This housing is practically new, having been used only once by the National Show and is now rented out to the Long Beach Exposition, after which it will be stored in a local walnut house through the courtesy of Mr. Ross' associates. It is planned to have the main entrance of the show on Los Angeles east and run the amusement concession parallel with the main tent. Mr. Fraser of the local C. of C., was in Los Angeles Monday and Tuesday and obtained the permission of the S. P., Santa Fe and Salt Lake routes for the display of the railway lines. Vic LaMont of the executive committee reports that these three railroads and the P. E. have tentatively promised to furnish exhibits in the feature department. It is probable that the Santa Fe will put in a miniature locomotive, artistically bedecked with valencias. The other lines have not yet chosen the style of their feature exhibits. The poster committee reports that a sketch of the proposed poster will be in Anaheim within three days and that the entire job will be ready for delivery by April 18, in ample time to secure proper distribution and advertising advantage. Arrangements have already been made for the furnishing of a sketch for stickers to be used on envelopes and letterheads by hundreds of merchants and other friends of the show and these will be on hand about April 1.

PLAN CONTINUOUS CENSUS Maintenance of records that will make definite population figures of Santa Ana available at any period of the year—or from day to day—is proposed as a result of the religious canvass of the city now being made by the churches. Cards representing 90 pct. of the 270 blocks in the city are now in the hands of Chairman W. W. Floy and it is expected the full returns will be within the next week or ten days. It is proposed to make these records permanent, with new arrivals in the city and those departing being reported in every week.

In 1752 Johann Sulzer discovered that if joined pieces of lead and silver were placed on the tongue, a curious salty taste was noticed, while the metals separately produced no taste. Volta found that the two metals, acted on by the saliva, which was saline, generated an electric current, and devised a cell on this principle.
