Wednesday evening next, November lab,
the Gait Histrionic Club will play "Ameri-
can Born, at Whitaker & Rays Hall. The
piece is calculated to merit the full apprecia-
ton of the audience, and will no doubt be
presented in manner fully up to the ex-
pectations of the many friends of the club.
The reserved seats for the evening have all
been taken by residents of Sacramento, Elk
Grove, Lodi and local patrons, and the
chances are that reserved seats will command
a premium on the evening of the perform
ance. The scenery and costumes used on
this occasion deserve special mention. A
fortress mounted with cannon-a genuine
80 pounder-will be one of the scenic st.
fractions. Jones, Grant, Beebe l. Flansgsn's
full orchestra from Sacramento viii furnish
the music, and those who witness the per-
Torrance will not be disappointed. After
the theater is ont the floor will be cleared for
dancing, when sll who desire :" may dance all
night, 'till broad daylight, and go home with
the girls in the morning"
A very good joke is told on a Gait young
man who attended the Elk Grove dancing
school last Saturday evening. On his return
home the next morning. and as he drove into
Calf, he was sccosted by friend who asked
what kind of time he had. "a glorious
time, was the reply, and be went on to tell
what good little team he had that he
drove into Sacramento the previous evening
and took a young lady from certain we'll
known hotel to the party, and left her home
10 the morning. and drove the team back
from the city in less than three hours. OF
course this story was never questioned at the
time. But now, however, it leaks out that
the gentleman's partner on that evening lives
At Clay station, and after wandering round
that little burg all day Saturday he finally
persuaded her to accompany him to the
party, and both had good time that even.
ing. However, getting home was q very diff
icult job, so difficult that they got lost and
did not reach Clay station until after z
o'clock in the morning. The funniest thing
connected with the affair was the manner in
which the young gentleman made believe, in
conversation with the young lady coming
home, that he had joined the Good Templars
and was the possessor OF so much money and
property that he turned his saloon over to his
young brother, and that the saloon business
was beneath his dignity, etc. We deem it
entirely unnecessary TO give the whole con-
vsrsation. But suffice it to say what we have
mentioned actually occurred, and "'Twas
ever thus in childhood days." etc.
