VOGLER of the old reliable Vista Grande Bakery and Grocery, is making an extensive improvement in his baking department.

Last Tuesday, a party consisting of Judge Ellis C. JOHNSON, F.A. SMACK, G. SEILLEY, G.F. WILDE and Stephen SPONDER visited Redwood City in SMACK’s machine and appeared before Judge BUCK for the naturalization of the three latter gentlemen, SMACK and JOHNSON being the witnesses. They passed their rigid examination in fine shape and with intelligence that insures good, progressive citizenship.
About 4:30 Monday afternoon fire started in the paint shop of Victor ROSENBAUM on Los Angeles avenue and the flames spread so rapidly that the shop was entirely destroyed, notwithstanding the fire ladies responded promptly and did fine work. In saving the shoe shop of Abel AFIBISH, one side of which caught fire and was burning briskly, the fireman deserve particular praise for their promptness. ROSENBAUM’s insurance could not be learned, but AFIBISH had a policy for $800, so his partial loss is covered.
