EDITORS HERALD: Our exhibit at
at the approaching Flower Festival
engages most Of our time and atten-
ton at present, and matters are pro-
crossing very satisfactorily in regard
to the preparations. All our residents
are most assiduously nursing and
cherishing each little tender bud and
delicate blossom, and profusion of
exquisite flowers are promised,
freshly cut each morning to be sent
on the early train from here to the
"City of the Angels" Some of the
"not-knowing" ones felt little
anxious lest the unusual heat-unus-
ual for this time of the year OF the
last three days would injure the flow
ers, but it proved to be Of more benefit
than injury to all vegetable growth.
We want to take the 5000 prize, and
may our efforts be success.
One day, not far distant. Anaheim
will wake up and find herself in one
of the loveliest valleys on the face OF
he earth. We live in perpetual
summer, bright flowers bloom the
year around, warm breezes blow with
just delightful sniff of sea air to in.

miles inland--and we are surrounded
by the grand old mountains, etern-

broad avenues are aligned with tree g

roads. New streets are being made,
old ones re-opened, and all are kept
in order. Otner lasting improve
ments are constantly going on. Ana
helm property has always been held
at prices exceedingly reasonable, and
this week there have been several sale g
consumated, the amour is in each i'll
iance being somewhere between
81, 900 and $1,000.
One of our Wholesale butchers has
this to say of the growth Of our town,
last year he sold five or six beefs a
week-he sells that many a day now.
We are still shipping oranges and
we will have at least a hundred Car
loads, which is doing excellently.
The Town Trustees are considering
the granting OF rights to some gentle
men for the purpose Of laying mains
through the streets for gas, for light
ing, fuel and power purposes.
The new store ia Los Angeles street
is to be opened in short time as an
ice cream and confectionery parlor.
There is soon to be fine new resi-.
dence built on Los Angeles street, and
the Hotel Del Campo, the Reisel
Block and the new Methodist Church
are all progressing rapidly. There
will be much building done next

for our townspeople. There are a
great many strangers here from all
parts OF the East who intend to make
this their permanent home. A brother
OF Mrs. Marshall Haight, with his
wife are among the late arrivals. Also
a nephew of Mr.. J. Everhardy, with
his wife, came last night. The new
comers, particularly the ladies', are
delighted with the place.

great agony and told bis wife he had
taken laudanum in mistake for some
other medicine. He was overcome
with drowsiness and wan'ed to lie
down in the yard and go to sleep, but
his wife recognized the danger he
was in, and managed to keep him
awake until she could send for medi-

Notice was sent to the police station
about the mans condition, and the
Chief, as soon as he could, dispatched
DR.. Wright and an assistant to render
relief. An examination by the doc
tors proved that the patient
was not in any immediate
danger. His circulation had not
been much impaired, but he showed
symptoms Of having taken something
that deranged his system and caused
him considerable suffering. A hypo
dermic injection and other rem
edies were applied and the
physicians left him in a COM
paratively safe condition. Fisher
was somewhat fiighty when inter-
viewed as TO what he had taken and
for what purpose. 1t was cleaned
from his remarks though that he
had drank some beer, and becoming
sick on the way home on the cars b e
