Knox, of Santa Ana, announces that excellent progress was being made. Knox, who personally superintended the surveys, which extended over several weeks, said it was probable that contracts would be awarded in 60 days. That there is marked interest throughout the county in the plan to construct the joint outfall sewer system, is attested, Knox said, by the fact that he is receiving letters from contractors in all parts of the United States who are anxious to bid on the proposed work. "One of the chief things to be considered is the rights or way. Altho we anticipate no serious delays in this connection, it remains for the city attorneys to advise us as to the proper course to pursue." "I do not know just how many men will be employed in the work of installing the sewerage system, but I should think there will be upward of 80 or 100 men actively employed when the work starts." Knox said that, among other things, the construction of the system would require the use of 4½ miles of 36-inch pipe, which probably will be of reinforced concrete. This type of pipe, the city engineer said, is being used in a number of the leading cities throughout the country and has proven satisfactory in every way. The treatment plant, to be operated in connection with the joint outfall sewer, will be erected below the Talbert bridge, at an estimated cost of $75,000.

Leavitt read letters of appreciation from the First Christian Church of Redlands from which charge Mr. Myers comes to this place. One letter is a resolution passed by the unanimous vote of the church in Redlands. The other is a resolution from the Redlands Ministerial Union. After words of greeting in behalf of the church of Christ at Anaheim the new pastor addressed his congregation upon the subject of "Brotherly Love." He made "Love" the basis of all Christian enterprise the lack of which would render any effort not only ineffective but unworthy of the Christ who was himself the Gift of God's Love. The evening service was filled with good things. The Rev. Geo. H. Whipple and wife sang a duet. Mr. Myers then announced that he had been called by the Redlands Ministerial Union to return next Sunday evening to address a union service there and had accepted the invitation which he considered in the nature of appreciation from that Union. Mr. Myers spoke in the evening upon the subject "Am I my brother's keeper." In the sermon he held that Christians were often neglectful of the welfare of others for whom Christ died. He said that in Anaheim there was presented to the church a rapidly growing community in which to do the will of the Master. He believes in the future of Anaheim and is enthusiastic about the opportunity offered in this community for service for Christ. Following are the resolutions: Whereas, Rev. L. L. Myers who has so efficiently and faithfully served as Pastor of the First Christian Church in Redlands the past five years is now being called to another field of labor, therefore be it resolved, That the Redlands Ministerial Association do hereby express their appreciation of the excellent work done by our Brother in our midst and we earnestly hope and trust that in his new field he FOREIGNERS FLEE CANTON PEKING, June 20.—Canton has been evacuated by foreigners, who began to flee as soon as the gunboats of Sun Yat Sen, former Provisional President, began shelling the city.
