FILES WATER RIGHT APPLICATION Residents of Orange co. who would protest against Santa Ana acquiring a water right in Santiago creek that would insure a supply of water for a population of 50,000 or more inhabitants, must file protests with the water division of the state department of public work. Call building, San Francisco, within sixty days from Nov. 5, such fact being disclosed when Walter Wray, superintendent of the municipal water department of Santa Ana, received notice of the application of the city. The application for the rights was filed with the division July 21, 120, and is for 40,000 acre feet. Wray was advised that the application was made in correct form. Charles H. Lee, chief of the division, advises that "protests should contain nature of injury which would result to protestant from such appropriation; the basis of protestant's water rights; protestant's past and future use of water, both as to amount used and land irrigated, or use made of water if other than for irrigation; the approximate location of such land or place of used and of the point of diversion or rate water." The project of the city is one that will involve, if successful, the expenditure between $600,000 and $700,000 in the building of dam and main line from the diversion point to the distributing system in Santa Ana. It does not include the cost or land that would have to be acquired or the cost of cleaning. Application of the city covers 13,-000,000,000 gallons of water, with the first page containing a statement about the paper's acceptance of advertising on the understanding that its PAID circulation equals any three others in the field. New York Letters NEW YORK, Dec. 1. — Can you imagine anything more intriguingly fitting than that the first fortune in Wall street should have been made by an alchemist—except that an alchemist should have selected Wall street for the site of his gold-transmutation factory? So it was. It was Jan Max Lichtenstein, a native of Pomerania, who brought here in 1783 his dream that the old alchemists were right and that gold could be made from dross. He purchased a little house on Wall street, erected a triple-furnaced chimney and went to work. He was the original Wall street "lamb," I suppose, but in spite of that, he made enough money to retire on, because of just owning and sticking to his little house and furnace there, until the city went mad, according to him, and grew up around him so that some absurd person paid him $23,000 for his property.

It does not include the cost of land that would have to be acquired or the cost of cleaning. Application of the city covers 13,000,000 gallons of water, with the first unit of construction being a dam that would impound 4,500,000-500 gallons. The first dam is to be located at a point a short distance west of the two story house located near the creek bed to the north of the second hill on the Villa Park road to Orange county park. The reservoir and rights will embrace about 450 acres. Provision is made for construction of other dams up the creek, when it becomes necessary. The city's application does not contemplate interruption of the water supply of companies and individuals which now secure irrigation water from the creek. The city contemplated the impounding of winter flood waters and conserving the flow that is now going to waste in the winter seasons. The American Academy of Arts and Letters is growing as it deserves to grow. The other day Marshal Foch laid the cornerstone of its new building out on 155th street, between Riverside and Broadway. Diplomats and hundreds of men and women prominent in the public eye of the country attended the ceremonies. Arts and letters are acquiring a more important place in the American mind with every year that passes. Once in a while, some one maps to write a play whose locale, politics, and prejudices are totally foreign to our own and yet make it interesting and amusing to us and without, in fact, losing any of its values through its transportation. Arnold Bennett has done that in "The Title." It is an English play, written by an Englishman, attacking what he considers to be a growing and objectionable English policy—the giving of titles more or less indiscriminately. And the American public is going to the Belmont theatre where it is being produced, to laugh and sympathize and appreciate just as though it were a session of our Congress which was being satired. Maybe this is partly due to Arnold Bennett's cleverness and partly to the fact that social aspirations of the same sort exist in this country, too, even if there is no such definite thing as a "My Lady" to strive for. The only living star of more than a Blanche Chapman, w stage and is playing "Those were the days," she said the other actress of Ophelia in 'Hamlet,' Van Winkle,' Joseph and some others all Saint Nicholas Arrives at Our Store Here's a Jewelry Store where the true spirit of Christmas prevails.

HARTLD THE JEWELER STORE Established Delivery lea Ain Deal LEADING NEWSPAPER OF NORTHERN ORANGE COUNTY Anaheim, California, Friday, December 2, 1921 Ork Letter The gala event of New York's whole year—the National Horse Show—is even more gala than ever this season. For the first time in its 36 years of recurring it has departed from Madison Square Garden and is held in Squadron A's Armory, which has been transformed into a replica of Mount Vernon and the surrounding estate. A hedge of real green circles the entire building and the schoolhouse in the garden which the children of the Custie family attended is erected along the Eastern wall. Reginald C. Vanderbilt is as usual the most enthusiastic, prominent and constant attendant. The noteworthy visitors arrived in New York simultaneously the other day, to spend some time with us. One is Marchioness of Crewe, whose father is Lord Rosebery, and the other is Juan Belmonte, foremost matador of ancient Castile. His wife will remain in this city during her husband's tour of Mexico because she doesn't like to see him in action. Time Square, when the air is moist and heavy and the smoke weighs it down, experiences a most remarkable sensation these days. "Angel voices" is what the office denizens and the astonished passerby call it. Mysterious music, unhearable and from an invisible source, and of marvelous beauty floats down through the atmosphere. You whirl around in front of taxes and protesting traffic cops to discover what it is. No use. You must go. WIRE FACTORY OPEN WITHIN TWO WEEKS The Calif. Wire Manufacturing Co. an industry that will add very materially to the business life of Orange, will begin active operations within two weeks, according to announcement made today by F. H.

CONDITIONS IMPROVING Pacific Coast conditions are improving rather than receding, according to a financial writer for the New York Evening Post. The present outlook in California is brighter than for a year, is his opinion, after a careful study of the situation.

UNION PACIFIC TO SPEND $2,996,510 The Union Pacific will spend $2,-995,510 in its building program in Orange-co. according to a quoted statement of A. S.

Blake, Presno; George Burke, San Francisco. Time Square. When the air is moist and heavy and the smoke weighs it down, experiences a most remarkable sensation these days. "Angel volces" is what the office denisens and the astonished passerby call it. Mysterious music, unhearable and from an invisible source, and of marvelous beauty floats down through the atmosphere. You whirl around in front of taxis and protesting traffic cops to discover what it is. No use. You can't solve it. It seems to be wafer from the clouds, and is enough to arouse the superstitious sense of almost anyone. Then some one who has tracked it to its lair will tell you. It is the chorus of the Metropolitan Opera House, practicing in the big building at Broadway and Fortieth street. The murky atmosphere does the rest. The only living actress who ever played with Edwin Forrest, glowing star of more than a century ago, is Blanche Chapman, who is still on the stage and is playing here this season. "Those were the days when we worked," she said the other day. "Just imagine an actress of today playing Ophelia in 'Hamlet,' Mimi in 'Rip Van Winkle,' Josephine in 'Pinafore,' and some others all in one month."

The present outlook in California is brighter than for a year, is his opinion, after a careful study of the situation.
