TOWN IN REVIEW BY OLD TIMER "Did you see the representative of that mattress factory?" inquired William B. Moody, chief of police, this morning. "What mattress factory?" was the counter-inquiry. "Oh, that Los Angeles mattress factory that sent a man down here to see Marcus." He had his mustache shaved yesterday," and Chief Moody tried to look serious, but his Irish just would out. The subject was Marcus Andrade, popular patrolman, whose mustache has been one of his chief points of pride. Nor was Moody slow in finding a plausible reason for Marcus' action. Marcus recently went on a vacation trip to San Diego, and Moody affirms: "The police down there have too good a description of him; he's trying to disguise himself. And do you know," continued Moody, "when you get the light to strike him just right now, he looks almost human." I don't know how to get in communication with Mrs. Wm. Knott but someone ought to tell her that while she's down at the beach Bill's leaving that new Jordan stand out in the sun in front of the shop all day every day. I don't know why Bill has to have it so handy while Friend Wife is away. Dr. J. W. TRUXAW can't help but think that Henry Ford is going to cut considerable figure in the next presidential campaign.

"Of course, every Ford owner will believe that Henry would soon have the government on a paying basis. It really would be nice for everyone to receive a nice dividend check along about Christmas." But, doctor, would that be good business for Henry? Who would drive a Ford if he got sufficient dividends at Christmas to buy anything else? INTRODUCING: another Anaheim oil magnate, Mr. Johnny Fisher! When the Russell No. 2 at Santa Fe Springs came in Thursday doing 6000 barrels of 35 gravity, worth $1.04 per barrel, Johnny was hoisted to the bloated boardholding class for he has a substantial interest in the outfit. A total of four wells will be drilled on the ten-acre lease. One stands cemented and rig is up for another. The news came as a surprise to congratulating friends because Johnny kept his operations to himself. "If she flivered I didn't want to get the rags," says Johnny, who ignored all hints of a celebration banquet but offered to buy a cigar. PEAKING of oil wells— George W. Hankler wants to know they're going to drill in the city park. "A derrick wouldn't look much worse than that stable at the head of Clementine-st," says George.

STRIKE AT SILVERA eriffs Confiscate Quantity of Liquor Phone Omaha People Typhoid Fever Fear OMAHA, Aug. 25.—In a frantic effort to check the spreading of typhoid fever, the feared result of the water famine in Omaha, people were awakened at all hours of the night by the telephone company and warned not to drink city water for at least ten days. When City Health Inspector Pinto announced late last night that city water had greatly clear, ed in color "but was filthy", fairly alive with typhoid germs", city officials became alarmed and demanded telephone company officials to broadcast the warning at once.

"We are facing the most appalling epidemic of typhoid fever FILES ACTION FOR $300,000 DAMAGES L. A. Attorney Charges Louis Henning With False Arrest FRUIT PRICES UP 25 CENTS THIS WEEK Shipments of citrus fruit from the Anaheim district took another tumble this week, with a total of 75 cars compared with 89 last week. All but one, a car of lemons, were valencias. The reduction is the result of the limitations set by the principal shipping organizations. Prices gained 25 cents per box this week, which, on top of a 50 cent gain last, has renewed optimism of local growers who have held back their fruit on advice of marketing organizations. Fruit at three cents a pound is looked for by the end of the season. The advance from now on will be steady, it is predicted, and the question now is how long to hold on to fruit, which is dropping to the usual extent. Practically twice as much deciduous fruit was shipped from California this year as last to the middle of August. Thirty-six hundred cars of Alberta peaches alone have been moved. Shipments from this valencia crop continue steadily until as late as Nov. 15, the Anaheim Orange & Lemon Ass'n predicts. The 100-car limit set by the California Fruit Growers' Exchange has not been increased and is not likely to be, it is said.

Attorney Charges Louis Henning With False Arrest Charging that his professional reputation had been ruined by unfounded charges of grand larceny. William Summers, Los Angeles attorney, today filed suit against Louis Henning for $300,000 damages. The suit was originally tried in the Los Angeles county courts. Summers declares in his complaint that on August 25; last year, the defendant swore to a complaint alleging that on March 9 previous he, Summers, had stolen $250 from him. A warrant for Summers' arrest was obtained the same day and on Aug. 28 at 11 a.m. Summers was put into the County Jail, remaining there until noon of August 29, when he gave bail of $2500. On Dec. 22 last after repeated continuations the case was dismissed. On or about December 22 Henning, the complaint continues, and Alonzo Cleaver who had testified to the alleged theft, and B. McMoore, Hugh P. Fay appeared before the grand jury of Los Angeles county and swore that Summers had represented himself as qualified to practice in California and Nevada. The grand jury returned a true bill, charging false pretenses by Summers. He was arraigned in the Superior court and ball of $5,000 was fixed, which he paid. On Jan. 4 the case was dismissed on motion of the district attorney. Summers alleges that he has been admitted to practice in all the courts of Michigan, Nebraska, Colorado and Washington and before the Supreme Court of the United States.

OVERADO MINES Liquor in General Cleanup CANDAL SHAKES MOVIEDOM; TAR'S BROTHER BADLY BEATEN OVERCOME OLD "FAULT" IN RICH HILL High Values, Broken Into Thursday, Contine to Improve RICH HILL High Values, Broken Into Thursday, Contine to Improve The Silverado mine, 12 miles from the county park, probably the oldest silver property in the state, has staged a comeback under the development of No. Orange-co men. L. O. Curtis, prominent stockholder of Anaheim and Los Angeles, announced today that on Thursday a long-sought main ore vein was opened up, rich with values. "This new strike is hundreds of feet below any other successful workings, and the fault, which has precluded results for many years, has been overcome. The lost vein appears to have been found," says Curtis. "The company is confident that future development will make it one of the most valuable silver mines in the entire west." The strike was considered so important that a special meeting of stockholders was held this afternoon at the local offices of the company. On and off for a century, the mine has been worked and high graded. Repeated efforts have been made to locate the lode beyond an existing fault, but with fruitless results. A few hundred feet of top of mountain evidenced rich silver ore values, but a fault occurred and fortunes have been expended in efforts to find the lower portion of the vein. For nearly three years, C. Stanley Chapman, of Fullerton, an active and well known fruit and oil man, together with Anaheim men, have endeavored to bring back this prospective valuable mine. This week their efforts have been rewarded. The ore body was found below the fault at top of mountain. It was found to be misplaced less than 200 feet and the ore body there encountered appears to carry the equal, if not better values, than had been found above the fault. After the solution of the fault above, the Blue Light Silver Mine Co., present owners of mine, have opened up the vein many hundred feet lower down. After running a tunnel nearly 500 feet in a broken up condition, the company last Thursday opened up the first ore shoot or chimney. This ore shoot is now over eight feet wide and getting larger as advancement is made. Ruby or pure silver is showing and the whole vein appears to A number of Anaheimers expect to be cashing in shortly on oil at Signal Hill. Rapid progress is being made on the Hall-Webber five-acre lease at Hill and Cherry-sts since contract for four wells was let to the Gillseple Oil Co., which thinks so much of the prospects that it will take its pay from production. The first well was spudded in four weeks ago. In the first ten days, using a new, heavy rotary disc drill, 3000 feet were made. The hole now stands cemented at 3700 feet. The company expects to bring in a gusher within 30 days as there is heavy production on four sides. Oil has been flowing since the 3300 foot depth was reached. The capitalization is only $175,-000. Among interested Anaheimers are I. Curtiss, Max Nebelung, Charles Eygabroad, Charlie Hollingshead, Wm. Stark, Dr. J. W. Truxaw, J. B. Fisher, Ray Fisher, John Flaher and Charles Walker.
