A Social Reunion,

The party given Thursday evening by
Mrs. Geo. W. Baker was a very pleasant
reunion, and was much enjoyed by the
numerous guests of the amiable hostess
and her husband. 1t was an evening full
OF entertainment for all that were present.
There was singing and dancing, rubbers
at whist, and every other diversion that
the guests wished to indulge in. Late in
the evening a sumptuous and elegant lunch
was served, and heartily enjoyed. While
the fun was at its hight a number OF the
guests, seized by the fashionable craze that
prevails in the social circles of San Fran
cisco, awaited themselves of the oppor-
tunity to make a test Of the remarkable
phenomena usually ascribed to spiritual
ism. Some amusing experiments with the
mesmeric circle Of hands were tried sue
cessfully on some persons, who seemed to
follow entirely the impulse Of the minds
Of those endesvoring to influence their
thoughts and actions. Some very stub
born subjects were encountered, however,
with whom nothing could be done. Tho
party seemed about equally divided be-
tween the skeptical and the credulous.
This and the old-timed, but still remark
able, phenomenon of body-lifting are very
interesting and thoughtful pastime.
