Anniversary Celebration at Santa Ana. A Public Drill and a Banquet at the Hotel Brunswick. An Enthusiastic Sugar-beet Meeting at Santa Ana. Concert by Prof. Sherwood of Chicago Freight Shipments from Tustln Why the Brunch Road is Not Better Patronized.

SANTA ANA. Monday night will long be remembered by wives, mothers, sisters and sweethearts of the members, of Co. Ninth Regiment, N.G.C., as well as by the members of the company themselves. The occasion was the second anniversary of the company, and a most enjoyable affair it was. On Wednesday night, January 6, the company will be two years old, and as the nearest regular drill night was on Monday, January 4, this was the evening chosen tor the celebration.

At 8 p.m. sharp, Bugler Sexton advanced to the center of Armory Hall and sounded the assembly call. "Fall-in! Fall inl" was the command from Sergt. Hall, and the boys quickly took their places, coming to a "right dress" according to the new tactics, and facing the ladles who were seated on the east side of the ball. A lively drill, in which the boys participated with a will, was given by Capt.

Matthews and Lieuts. Ulm and Roper. Roll was called and the company dismissed but only to re-assemble immediately at "mess call," at which the boys In blue marched to their lady friends, accompanying them to the Hotel Brunswick dining parlors where a most excellent spread consisting of all the delicacies of the season as well as the sub-stantials, was discussed. The dining par. lors were elaborately decorated with the national colors and evergreens, beautiful bouquets of the choicest (lowers adorning the Heavily laden tables.

The menu was all that could be desired and the tables were handsome In all their appointments. Capt. H. T. Matthews was toast-master and the following toasts were called lor and responded to: The NatlonalQuard of California, and the men who compose it Maj.

The great pianist was driven to the private parlors of Mr. and Mrs. M. A. Yarnell, where he was entertained dur-ing the afternoon.

A Times representative called upon him early In the afternoon to ascertain something of his impressions of Southern California, and although the gen. tleman was being dined at the time the reporter called, when he was informed whq was at the door, he excused himself from his entertainer, and appeared a moment later In the parlor. "No sir, this Is not my Initiative trip to California," said the gentleman. "I was in San Francisco three years ago, but this is my first trip to Southern California. I arrived in Los Angeles Saturday night from Chicacro, traveling the longest dis.

tance I have ever traveled at one time to fulfill an engagement. My reception in Los Angeles was private, and was, I assure you, most agreeable and pleasant. I was due to appear at the reception rooms at 0 p.m., and my train did not arrive until p.m., but by dressing on the train and going directly to the reception rooms, the appointment was fulfilled, and friends were not kept In waiting. Los Angeles, I think, is rather wonderful city. It is a more metropolitan city than I expected to see.

"Yes, sir, saw a great deal of the city through kindness of friends who took me out driving each day Then I am very fond of bicyling, and I made a tour of the city on the 'silent I play in Los Angeles on Thursday night. "I certainly am pleased with San Diego. It Is a beautiful city, and I think statements In regard to its unparalleled climate have not been exaggerated. In fact I am well pleased w.th all portions of Southern California through which I have passed, and I sincerely regret that my trip is of necessity so limited. I will leave California on the night of the 14th of January.

I am due at Chicago on the 18tr. I will return to California with my wife next summer during my vacation, at which time I hope to learn more of your country and enjoy your beautiful mountain scenery at my leisure." Upon Prof. Sherwood's return to. Chicago he will enter upon a twenty weeks' engagement as musical Instructor in the Chicago Conservatory of Music. Neill's Hall was packed tonight to hear the great pianist, all reserve seats being sold long before the doors were opened.

The following through freight In carload lots was shipped from the Tustln branch of the Southern Pacific Railroad for the year ending December, 1891: Thlrty-seven cars of stock, 3.600,000 pounds of barley, pounds of corn, 120,000 pounds of potatoes- 90,000 pounds of onions, 30,000 pounds of peanuts, 30,000 pounds of walnuts. 30,000 pounds of beans and 17,750 boxes of oranges. The above shipments represent but a small portion of the products of Tustln, By a close approximation the last year's crop of oranges for Tustin was 70,000 boxes, or 233 carloads.

Had our total orange crop been shipped from the Tustin depot it would have made it the third largest orange shipping depot in Southern California, Riverside and Los Angeles being the first and second. Our local railroad is not patronized as well as It might be for various reasons. First, the storage accommodations for shippers are entirely Inadequate. There is at present stored in Santa Ana between 50.000 and 60,000 sacks of barley that were hauled from the San Joaquin ranch right past the Tustln depot. The ranch raised last year about 200,000 sacks of barley and 5000 sacks of wheat, besides hay, corn, beans, etc.

If this is a favorable year a much larger acreage will be culti. vated and the barley crop alone will probably reach 300.000 sacks. Tustln being less than half the distance between the ranch and Santa Ana, it is reasonable to suppose It would be the shipping point, if storage facilities were afforded. Our local passenger train, as It is run at present, Is no accommodation and our people have got into the habit of going by way of Santa Ana. Our people feel friend'ly toward the Southern Pacific Railroad, and there is no reason why our depot cannot be our prlnci.

At a meeting of the Board of Agriculture at San Bernardino last Saturday the following resolutions relative to the coming citrus fair were unanimously adopted: Wberea8, the fruit-growers of San Bernardino county have In the past won the leading premiums at the State citrus fairs held In Los Angeles, thus placing this county In the front as containing the very cream of the real citrus belt of the State; and whereas, another State citrus fair is to be held at Los Angeles, commencing on the 2d day of March, 1802; and whereas, we believe It to be the best public policy of this county to retain its position at the head of the list of citrus fruit-growing sections and maintain the high reputation It has already established in that branch of fruit therefore be it Resolved, by the Board of Agriculture of the Twenty-eighth District Agricultural Association (San Bernardino county) that we urge the fruit-growers of the county to at once take action to make the finest and best exhibit of citrus fruits at the coming State Citrus Fair ever made in this State, to the end that the premiums and honors of that exhibit may still further emphasize the fact that we produce the finest citrus fruits to be bad in the State, Resolved, that the fruit-growers in mak. ing that exhibit should carefully select each specimen of fruit placed on exhibi. tion, and that none but perfect fruit should be taken to the fair, as experience shows that careful selections of fruit is better than artistic display. Resolved, that our fruit-growers are also requested to save some of their finest fruit for the fair to be held In this county by this at some time and place hereafter to be determined, as a pro. gramme is being arranged for the forthcoming district fair that will excel any.
