WHEN THRU WITH YOUR PLAIN DEALER, MAIL IT TO EASTERN FRIENDS—IT MAY BRING THEM TO ANAHEIM, FASTEST GROWING CITY IN ORANGE COUNTY.
VOL. XXV—NO. 295
The Village Gossip
It is not uncommon for motordealers to advance novel claims as to the easy riding of the particular car they handle. Here is a claim that really is novel.
George Dunton, dealer for Lincoln and Lincolnettes, spent night before last in Los Angeles, leaving his Lincoln at the Fifth-st garage. When he started out about 9 a.m. yesterday a pedestrian yelled that he had a passenger on the rear.
"What is it?" asked George.
"It's a rat," was the reply.
"Dead, I suppose?" queried George.
"Not on your life," was the response.
George didn't get out to verify the discovery until he pulled up at his destination, an office building. Then, sure enough, he found a long tailed rate calmly enjoying himself while perched between the upper and lower sections of the right rear spring. Mr Rat was still there when he came out of the building. They proceeded to a parking station where the car was left two hours. When they came back, the rodent retained his position. They proceeded out Seventh-st for a call on relatives and again returned to the parking station, the rat with them.
"That rat sure must like riding in a Lincoln," said the service station proprietor.
When the Duntons returned for their car, the dealer was informed that the project being financed by subscriptions of $500 each.
Signaling their interest in the California Valencia Orange Show as Anaheim's largest looming annual publicity feature, the Board of Directors of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce yesterday gave authority to the site committee to close with J. B. Andrews, owner of a 15-acre Valencia orange grove, running from Palm to Citron-sts, just outside the north central limit of Anaheim for that tract for the permanent holding place of the show.
It was necessary for the board to act quickly in the matter, as Eygaurad and Fisher, who had the sale of the tract, have received offers from several prospective buyers and had to close the deal Friday. The consideration is $3,000 per acre, or $45,000 in all. The seller is to receive $8,000 as part payment and a contract will then be drawn up, setting forth terms for the payment of the balance.

"That rat sure must like riding in a Lincoln," said the service station proprietor.
When the Duntons returned for their car at 3 p.m. the rat was still there. They drove to the Ford factory. When they came out at 4 p.m. the rat was ditto.
"Well, Mr. Rat, you've had a nice time of it and I want to thank you for the demonstration, but you can't go to Anaheim," said George.
So, George purposely hit the high spots coming out Stephenson-ave and then pulled up when he saw a stick beside the road. But Mr. Rat evidently had taken a tumble to himself. Those bumps on Stephenson-ave were too much.
Heard out at the ball game Sunday: "Kill the umpire!"
Fair fan: "Gimme a hammer."
"The advertising department of Cal. Fruit Growers Exchange is constantly looking for new reasons for the consumption of citrus fruit," says Chas. Eygabroad.
"At the Exchange meeting Wednesday, there was read from a voluminous treatise on psychology that if everyone over 40 years of age consumed the juice from at least half an orange or lemon twice a day, he would never suffer hardening of the arteries. There's nothing gets by the advertising department."
Who knows but what orange and lemon juice will be in as much demand from seekers of youth as gland transplanting is now.
Eygabroad is a firm believer in advertising to encourage consumption of citrus fruit. The Plain Dealer recently published that the self-same advertising department had found a report from a leading eastern physician to the effect that a pup fed orange juice had developed a great deal more rapidly than one denied it. The next evening when he returned to his home on W. Center-st he found a large gathering of kids from the neighborhood with their dogs. The latter were betting encouraged to consume orange juice in copious quantities.
The setting back of the curb on the southside of Center-st, ordered by city council in an effort to force property owners to withdraw the fronts of their buildings to a uniform line, is causing considerable inconvenience to pedestrians and tenants on account of the narrow sidewalk. However, for the most part they take it goodnaturedly. This morning, Jim Stewart, robust realtor, was out spaying the unmanned horse in the narrow sidewalk.

It was necessary for the board to act quickly in the matter, as Eygabroad and Fisher, who had the sale of the tract, have received offers from several prospective buyers and had to close the deal Friday. The consideration is $3,000 per acre, or $45,000 in all. The seller is to receive $8,000 as part payment and a contract will then be drawn up, setting forth terms for the payment of the balance.
Herman Stern, chairman of the executive committee of the show, drew a warrant yesterday afternoon for $500 to bind the contract and Mr. Eygabroad immediately drew papers to accompany the deposit. He states that the purchase is an unusually good one and that a profit of 33 1-3 per cent can easily be made on the turn, within twelve months. The board and Orange Show Committee do not expect to remove any of the trees, which contain a splendid setting of fruit for 1923, but will rather accept the order of the city to use a part of the city park for the holding of the show until plans for landscaping that twenty acres are further advanced.
Several members of the Chamber were interested in private deals to secure this tract but unselfishly wafted their rights when they learned that the site committee consisted of Messrs. Eygabroad, Berger, Johnston, Benjamin and Stern, had reported favorably as to the purchase of the Andrews grove. The plan for raising the initial payment is to sell $500 units, of which the following have taken each: R.C. Berger, H.H. Benjamin, Dr.H.A. Johnston, W.J. Siemann, W.A.Dolan, A. Thomas, F.A. Backs, Adams-Bowers Lumber Company, Barney Hartfield, F.A.Yungbluth, Chas. Eygabroad and Heying Dros. The contract allows ten days for raising the balance of the initial payment.
DANCER EVADES MAN SHE SUES
LOS ANGELES, July 22.—Skilfully evading questions, Miss Evans Burrows Fontaine, beautiful oriental dancer of "The Spices of 1922," would not deny today that her presence in Los Angeles might be indicative of a possible settlement of her sensational suit against Cornelius Vanderhilt Whitney, by which she seeks to establish the paternity of her 18-months-old baby, whom she calls Cornelius Vanderhilt Whitney, Jr.

However, for the most part they take it goodnaturedly. This morning, Jim Stewart, robust realtor, was out sparing the unpaved space in the hope of settling the dust for a few hours.
"I believe we would get better results if we set this patch out to alfalfa," said Jim.
"All right," said A. V. Vall, of the Anaheim Feed & Fuel Co. next door, "I'll furnish the seed."
I wonder if it'll grow just like Anaheim.
That was some ball game out at the high school Sunday. Henry Tipton, groundkeeper, has worked the diamond until it is lightning fast. When a ball gets past a fielder it doesn't stop until the batter has rounded the bases.
Apparently on top of that, the local heroes had been reading about Babe Ruth, so they had no mercy on Huntington Park pitcher. They knocked six home runs. The circuit clouts came so fast that the scorekeepers lost track of them. That explains why Captain Buster Callan's four-base rap went unrecognized in reports of the game. Callan is so fast on bases, anyway, that his little wonder his speedy circuit was overlooked. It was no intentional slight, even if Bus failed to show the color of that dollar Lee Baker slipped him for poling it out.

WARM FIGHT
OVER DOTY
SENTENCE
A contest is being staged in Judge French's court in Fullerton in which the friends of Jack Doty, Fullerton druggist, who was recently fined $300 and sentenced to 30 days in jail, are making efforts to have Judge French suspend, the sentence because of the past good record of the defendant, and another party as strong or stronger is clamoring for the rigid enforcement of the law.
Many prominent citizens of the city are on both sides of the controversy, and Judge French finds himself between two walls of fire. It is stated that the petition is being signed by many of the business men, and is expected to be presented to the judge within a short time.
About 30 citizens of Fullerton appeared before the judge this morning, and requested that the law be permitted to take its course without fear or favor, and stated that if necessary a counter petition would be circulated that Doty should serve the sentence.

CITY MOVES WHILE DR. FOY IS JAILED
The world do move—especially in Anaheim!
Dr. A. C. Foy, chiropractor, released from the county jail today where he was sentenced to 110 days for practicing without a state medical board permit, is surprised at the number of changes in Anaheim since he left in April.
"The funniest thing," he says, "is so see that fine, new Ruether market. When I left in April they were just starting to remodel."
Foy got 5 days off for each 30 days of the sentence, Dr. Dudley of Orange, sentenced at the same time, has ten days more.
"The only reason I can give for keeping him longer is that he is married and I am not," says Foy. The world needs single men more than married."
Dr. Foy hasn't decided on plans for the future. He sold his prairie.
Over 40 were injured, several probably fatally.
The dead are Engineer H. R. Rine and Fireman Nealy of the "Meteor," and a man, wife and three children, all of one family, as yet unidentified.
Two other children of this family were badly hurt and are not expected to live.
The "Meteor," southbound from St. Louis to San Antonio, was running about 45 miles an hour when it struck the open switch and was behind schedule time. Both locomotives were demolished in the crash and the track strewn with wreckage.
Most of the injured passengers were occupants of two chair cars on train No. 2, north bound from Oklahoma City to St. Louis, which were telescoped. Members of the family which were killed were seated in the front seats of the second chair car.

SHIPPED
Fifty-eight cars of Valencia oranges were shipped this week, only a car and one-half short of last week's record shipment. One of the local organizations did not ship, and another finished shipping Friday evening.
The market on Valencias continues strong, with practically no change in prices over a week ago. Buyers in the large marketing centers are eager for supplies and are willing to pay fancy prices for best grades, desirable sizes, notwithstanding liberal receipts of local summer fruits that are offered at reasonable prices.
F. o. b. quotations are as follows: Fancy grade, sizes 200s and larger, $9.00 to $9.50; 216s, $8.75; 250s, $8.00; 288s, $7.00; smaller sizes, $6.25 per box. Choice fruit generally 75 cents per box less than above prices.
Growers in the Upland-Ontario district are figuring on at least 75 percent of a normal crop of oranges for the coming season. They report that where they were first inclined to be skeptical, a more careful examination of the trees revealed plenty of fruit on th inside and while a 50 per cent crop for San Bernardino county as a whole may be correct, the Upland-Ontario districts will make a decidedly better showing.
An official estimate of the bearing and non-bearing acreage of citrus fruit in California, compiled by the agricultural statistical service of the state department of agriculture in co-operation with the federal bureau of markets, reveals the fact that there are approximately 257,973 acres.
Commercial plantings only were taken into consideration and covered planting to and including the year 1920. On this basis there were at that time 228,927 bearing acres of oranges, lemons and grapefruit and 27,070 acres of none-bearing trees of these three varieties.
It is estimated that new acreage planted in 1921 approximated: Oranges, 1705 acres; lemons, 229 acres; and grapefruit, 42 acres This would date to 257,973 acres. The acreage of oranges, lemons and grapefruit, both bearing and non-bearing, to and including 1821, is as follows: Oranges in bearing, 179,463; non-bearing, 18,589; lemons in bearing, 45,814; non-bearing, 9958; grapefruit in bearing, 3650; non-bearing, 499.
The demand for California lemons is only fair. The generally cool weather in the east is not conducive to a good demand for lemons, and until real summer weather sets in not much change in the situation is looked for.
F. o. b. quotations are on a basis of $5 to $5.50 per box for best stock. There are on hand and available for sale within the next 30 days approximately 120,000 boxes of foreign lemons.

F. o. b. quotations are on a basis of $5 to $5.50 per box for best stock. There are on hand and available for sale within the next 30 days approximately 120,000 boxes of foreign lemons.
The damage to the Sicily lemon crop by high winds of early spring will not amount to more than 20 per cent, it is now believed. Early in the season it was reported as a 50 per cent loss. This season's crop of foreign lemons is expected to aggregate 30,000 carloads. Approximately 20 per cent is exported to the United States.
OLMSTEAD ELECTED HEAD OF BREA BANK
WASHINGTON, July 22.—Equiped with the latest self-dumping cars, trackage and derricks, Dr. Neil M. Judd, curator of American archeology of the Smithsonian Institution, has left here to begin the most extensive excavations ever attempted among the prehistoric Indian ruins of the Southwest. This is the second of five summers being devoted to the work of uncovering the dwellings and restoring the walls of ancient Pueblo Bonito in Chaco canyon, which it is believed may result in connecting the period in which these people lived with the period of the Mayan race in British Honduras, dating back to 95 B.C., according to definitely deciphered records found there.

MRS. CAFFEE QUIZZED ON NEW DETAILS OF MURDER
LOS ANGELES, July 22.—Details of the "hammer murder" of Mrs. Alberta Meadows that hitherto have been withheld were the subjects of a conference today, between Chief Deputy District Attorney William C. Doran and Mrs. Peggy Caffee, eyewitness of the killing of the pretty young widow.
Peggy Caffee's appearance at the district attorney's office was under heavy guard, the prosecution having announced it had received information that a plot was being concocted to do away with her, either by kidnapping or by murder, to prevent her appearance as a witness against Mrs. Clara Phillips, who is awaiting trial on a charge of having beaten Mrs. Meadows to death with a hammer.
Mrs. Caffee had already told her story of the most atrocious crime that ever shocked the people of Los Angeles, it being upon her testimony that the grand jury returned an indictment charging Mrs. Phillips with the murder.
But the district attorney's office wanted additional details for its preparation of the case against the accused woman, and it was announced that Mrs. Caffee had indicated she could supply them.
Arrangements had been made to form Moore for Senate Club here.
Preparations for a Moore-For-Senator club here were started at a meeting last evening in the offices of Eygabroad & Fisher on West Center street, attended by various representative citizens.
A large amount of literature with which to push the local campaign has arrived, and work beginning.
UNDECIDED OVER CISNEROS' BROTHER
Sheriff C. E. Jackson remained undecided still today whether to send for Guadalupe Cisneros, brother of the condemned slayer, Ascension of Narsico Cisneros, and have him brought from Calexico here. Jackson is not at all satisfied that Cisneros had any connection with the crime, as newspaper reports averred. While the murderer in the Mexican colony was tried only for killing Camillo Moreno, county officials have little doubt if any that it was he and he alone who slew Emiterio Escobedo, the man who lived with the Moreno woman.
Congratulations continue to reach the offices of the Sheriff and of District Attorney A. P. Nelson and the Superior Court over the dispatch with which Cisneros was tried and convicted.
HOSTESS IN EVERY PEW, CHURCH PLAN
WICHITA, Kans., July 22—Every pew in a centrally located church here has its "official hostess," whose duty it is that every chance corner to her particular seat is welcomed. If her own family is large enough to fill all the space, she is allotted the pew in front, the parceling out of seats being arranged at a weekday meeting. The house having been chartered in advance on a charge of having beaten Mrs. Meadows to death with a hammer.
Mrs. Caffee had already told her story of the most atrocious crime that ever shocked the people of Los Angeles, it being upon her testimony that the grand jury returned an indictment charging Mrs. Phillips with the murder.
But the district attorney's office wanted additional details for its preparation of the case against the accused woman, and it was announced that Mrs. Caffee had indicated she could supply them.
Arrangements had been made to have Sheriff William Traeger, Under-sheriff Eugene Biscalluz and Deputy Sheriff Al Manning, in addition to Chief Deputy District Attorney Doran, present at the conference.
Following Mrs. Caffee's repetition of her story of the murder, and her questioning for additional details, it was planned to place her under guard of a woman deputy sheriff, who would be instructed not to leave her side until the time when she is called to the witness stand at the trial of Mrs. Phillips.
Following an alleged admission by Phillips that his first story of having thrown away, somewhere near El Monte, the blood-stained hammerhead with which he says his wife slew Alberta Meadows was not in accordance with the facts, the sheriff's office doubled its efforts today to find the missing weapon.

HOSTESS IN EVERY PEW, CHURCH PLAN
WICHITA, KANS., July 22—Every pew in a centrally located church here has its "official hostess," whose duty it is that every chance comer to her particular seat is welcomed. If her own family is large enough to fill all the space, she is allotted the pew in front, the parceling out of seats being arranged at a weekday meeting.

At this time abundant opportunity is afforded for meeeting strangers and inviting them to attend services.
U. S. DESIRES NEW AIR CRAFT
WASHINGTON, July 22. — The United States army has entered the race for the honor of being the first to construct and fly a practical helicopter, it has been learned here on high authority.
Work on this machine designed for vertical flight is surrounded with greatest secrecy, and an aviation officer states that any about 20 high war department officials have seen the craft. How soon it will be ready to fly cannot be learned.
Major-General M. M. Patrick, chief of army aviation, will make no statement other than reluctantly to admit that the shops at McCook Field, Dayton, Ohio, are working on a helicopter. Air service officials say that there is little probability of the army entering its helicopter in the competition of the British air ministry for the 50,000 pounds sterling prize.
