THE FINE WINTER CLIMATE


Of San Francisco with US, are not
altogether to blame in considering
the climate failure when their own
warm sitting rooms in the East are at
a temperature of everywhere from 90
to 20 and even upwards-much more
desirable. The human mind is prone
to grumble, but what can be more
disheartening than to see the ground
for weeks together saturated with
moisture, the sunny south winds
turned to ice-carriers, and not the
slightest intimation of any change OF
programme 2 But so it is. Cal:for-
mia is fraud in regard to climate,
and she may consider herself out in
the cold altogether as far as our good
opinion is concerned about it.
We have had Wade's Opera House
thoroughly ventilated; indeed, SO
we'll ventilated that, unless the wealth
er changes, we advise all the good
people who come in town to visit it
to provide themselves with suffi-
cient number Of
BED BLANKETS
To keep themselves from shivering.
1t is fine building, large and airy,
we'll arranged in some respects, but
of course, not perfect. 1t has line
entrance, is we'll appointed in regard
to dressing rooms and has accommo-
dations for as many people as are
ever likely to attend it. 1t is on
Union street, between Third and
Fourth-the classic regions of hood
iumism, and is likely to have some
annoyance in consequence.
The piece entitled Snowflake y
was originally intended for Christ
mas, being spectacular, and more
suited for children's enjoyment than
that of grown people. The ballet is
the best we have ever had here, and
probably it reconciled the papas to
sitting for the amusement OF the
little ones, who were probably less
interested in that part of the perform
ance than some Others. 1t will moi
have a long run, and whether the
management will be able to sustain
themselves in other new perform
ances remains to be proved.
The wooden wedding of j. G. Dun
can, of the Safe Deposit Company
took place on Tuesday evening. Il
was fine affair. The cards were t
novelty, being issued on
THIN SLIPS OF WOOD.
Mr.. Duncan has young wife and i.
the blessed proprietor OF seconc
family of young children.
As a general thing society is quiet
stirred up from time to time with
rather mournful activity by the
suicide of some we'll known citizen.
The death in this city the past week
of Henry c. Kibbe was received with
some establishment. He was Secre-
tary of the Belcher and other min
ing companies, but had stepped be-
yond himself in various ways til
only one course seemed left him, anC
death by his own hand was tine re
suit.
The suicide epidemic is upon us
and from time to time we hear OF III
victims. The weather is enough tt
account for great deal of it--tha
is if the nervous system becomes de
pressed by its influence and people
feel less able to fight against unto
ward circumstances, which is yer,
likely.
THE STOCKS
Took a downward tendency after thu
death of Kibbe. Whether that even
had anything to do with it is some
thing ''no fellah can find out"
The Literary Society connected
with DR.. Stones church is t. give a.
entertainment on Thursday evening
for the benefit of the society. Music
dramatic representations, ETC., are t.
be the orde, Of the performances
The greatest possible attention j
to be given to propriety, two maidel
ladies having been very much shocked
at the introduction of the word dane
on former occasion. The fact is tn
religious part Of the community hol'
his Satanic majesty in too mucl
veneration or awe to admit the takin,
of his name in vain in any form
whatever, and hence the result.
