SANTA ANA
A Funeral Joke - Stealing Water-Some
News Notes

NcWS NOtt5
SANTA ANA, May PA ludicrous
incident occurred to Rev. L. ]. Mynard
as he reached his home in Oakland after
a weeks visit with friends in this city.
One of the leading undertakers of that
city had a funeral in Rev. Mr.. Mynard' s
church last Saturday. and when the ser
vices were over he left his bier in the
church. Some ladies found it there in
the afternoon while decorating for Sum
day service. These ladies telephoned to
the undertaken to come and get his bier
that he left in the church. Others heard
the message, and OF course supposed it
was spelled ''beer," and soon the word
spread that the undertaken had a keg of
beer in the church during funeral. The
church people were terribly worked up
over it, and finally with reporter went
to the Rev. Mr.. Mynard about it, who
said, ''it sometimes makes a great deal
of difference the way word is spelled. ~
1t took about week to undo what was
done in a short minute.
The Santa Catalina Marine band, COM
posed of twenty pieces, was in our city
tonight, and gave one OF their popular
open air concerts to a large crowd. A
large platform was erected on the east
side of the Hotel Brunswick, but it was
soon found that the vast crowds could
not be accommodated in one street. so
the platform was taken down and moved
to the center of the crossing of Fourth
ard Sycamore streets. The crowd began
to gather early, and by o'clock the
streets were pretty well filled with people,
and after few pieces were played the
streets became completely blockaded. 1t
was the finest open air concert ever given
in theIcity.
For some time. yes, for the past three
years, it has been known that some party

supposed to be going on, still the pumps
would have to be kept going all the while.

one party has been irrigating his alfalfa
patch, his garden or his orchard, using
more water than twenty families would
use in a legitimate way. This is a steal.

PASADENA, May A.-Appropriate ex-

also in Throop polytechnic institute, in
memory of the dead soldiers, whose sur
viving comrades had charge of the exer-

pupils entering heartily into the spirit of
the occasion rendered patriotic recita

few remarks on the objects and uses OF

Commander j. d. Gaylord of the G. A.

He spoke of the value OF the Stars and
Stripes and what they represent to each
American citizen, and W hat it had cost
in human life to uphold this standard oi
liberty. Father Throop had himself ap-
preclated this when he sent forth his son
to defend it and to help in keeping Old

Post Commander q. Q. Brown recalled
to the minds OF his hearers the facts tha
such schools as Throop were not accessi

the students were blessed with many ad
vantages not possessed at that time, 10 I
which they should be duly thankful, an d
moreover should make the greatest pos
sible use by diligence and industry, wi tn
out which all the advantages in the world
are of no practical benefit. He paid a
warm tribute to Father Throop, who's Sc

this respect as well as in practical phi il
anthropy, OF which the present institu-
tion is a lasting monument.
DR.. II. A. Reid called attention to the
arrangements for Decoration Day and
Memorial Sunday, and the exercises
closed by the Battle Hymn of the Re-
public being sung by all.

THE SCHOOL CENSUS.

With some grumbng on account OF the extra
work imposed upon them. members Of the police
force began on Monday TO take the school census
OF Ncw-York The act of 1895 requiring such
an enumeration to be made Is defective in some
respects. and may have TO be amended in order
that It may be effectively and conveniently ap-
piled to this city and TO Brooklyn. The Board
Of Education, having no funds to Use for the
purpose. was in dilemma, from which it has
finally been rescued by the Police Department
and no harm may result this year. But the
statute ought to make It's way plain hereafter
1t Is by no means certain, however that the
police ought TO be relieved Of this task Doubt
less it would be possible, IL neither money nor
organizing skill were lacking, to enroll and train
a force Of enumerators whose services would in
most cases be available year after year. and
which could be steadily recruited as necessity re-
qured But TO conceive Of such a possibility
is very different thing from concluding that
1t would surely, or even probably, be realized In
a city like New-York On further reflection II
may appear TO the Legislature and to the Board
of Education that here at least the school census
can be most successfully taken by the police
Certainly in some obvious respects the police
are peculiarly qualified for this task Their
knowledge Of the buildings, the people and the
life Of the neighborhoods which they patrol is
Of special value for census purposes. and Of most
value in cases Of exceptional difficulty. More.
over. though any enumerator would have in the
DRY all the authority he needed to elicit the re-
quired information, the uniform and the official
character Of the policeman are sure to give him
a considerable advantage in dealing with cno.
rant and obstinate persons.
This year the extra demand upon the police
force came rregularly and somewhat unexpect
edly. and furthermore II found the force reduced
below its normal strength. 1t Is not surprising.
