An Elegant Repast.

There assembled in Koster's res
taurant last evening, at $50 P. NJ,
seven gentlemen to do honor to an
elegant repast ordered for them by
Mr.. E. Rosenthal, manager of the
Riverside Fair, and Mr.. d. L. Wilbur,
also of Riverside. Both these gen.
tlemen are directors in the Riverside
Board of Trade, and that alone is suf-
ficient to guarantee that the repast
was one that will long be remembered
by those present as one of the most
agreeable evenings they ever spent.
Those present were Mr.. Carl Brown,
of the Cactus, Mr.. j. j. Gee, of the
the Tribune, Colonel G. H. Shaw,
of the Tribune, Mr.. H. q. Os-
borne, of the Eapress, Mr.. H..
P. Orvis, Of the EGpress, Mr.. N. j.
Levinson, of the Portland Oregonian,
and representative of the HERALD.
At. 6P. M. the meal began, and to
Judge by the way the viands disap-
peared, every one present had a
splendid appetite. The finest wines
were served with each course. Jokes
and stories were told in abundance,
and all enjoyed themselves perfectly:
Mr.. Carl Brown created great deal
of amusement by his cartoons, and at
$3.50 P. NJ, two and one-half hours
from the time the cover was lifted
from the first dish, the party left the
table in the best of spirits, after
thanking Messrs. Rosenthal and Will
bur for their handsome entertainment.

The Berke mansion, on the corner
of Bunker Hill avenue and Second

The occasion was leap year party
given by the young ladies OF the fam
lily to number of their friends. The
Misses Berke received their guests
with most cordial welcome, and for
several hours pleasant games, music
and conversation whiled the time
away in very agreeable man
ner. Nor must the refreshments be
forgotten, to which each one present
did ample justice.
Among those present who aided
very materially in making the time
pass pleasantly with music and song,
were Mrs. Eden, Miss Lemon, Mr..
Lemon, Miss Bradshaw, Miss Penning
and Mr.. Burbeck. Miss Lemon per-
forms very delightfully."- on the violin
and her brother is an expert on the

The later hours Of the evening
were devoted to dancing which all
the young people enjoyed, and which
was continued until long past mid

STOLEN GOODS.
Recovered from San Diego by
Emil Harris.

Recovered from San Diego by
Emil Harris.
1t will be remembered that few
weeks ago, a Mrs. Nelson was arrested
on charge of being a receiver OF
stolen property, and that at the same
time it was stated that partner of
hers, r. G. Davis, by name, had gone
to San Diego taking along with him
q number of cases of goods which
were supposed to have been stolen.
Detective Emil Harris, who was given
charge Of the matter telegraphed to
San Diego, and Davis was arrested
and the delivery Of the goods stopped.
Davis was examined but the goods
not being obtainable as evidence he
was discharged and shortly afterward
commenced suit against Mr.. Harris
for $4,000 for damages caused
by alleged false imprisonment.
This suit is still pending;
but late Saturday evening the twelve
cases shipped by Davis were returned
to this city, and yesterday Detective
Harris searched them. Among other
articles, he found five pieces Of cloth
valued at $4O0, which had been stolen
from tailor shop on Spring street on
the 21st OF November. This cloth
was identified as that stolen from the
firm on that date. There were also %
watches, 21a dozen plated table
spoons, 5-12 dozen forks, half-dozen
teaspoons, three fine opera glasses,
three microscopes, all valued at about
5000. These were identified as hav-
ing been stolen from iewelry store
on West First street on the oath of
December. Besides these articles,
there was large amount of jewelry,
trinkets and silverware, which has as
yet not been identified. There were
also several cases OF spectacles which
were stolen from travelling sales,
man, who is wanted to ID nifty them.
This is an important recovery, and
the manner in which the whole case
has been worked reflects great deal
of credit upon the sagacity of Mr..
Harris.

AP OF

has gIven rvs cACTusIvB aJrenJlOn 10
shipments of through freight. There
has been no deception on the part of
the California Fast Freight Line, or
any of its agents in regard to time
made. In fact, all efforts have been
directed towards crowding shipments
through with all possible dispatch.
Sincerely l think that the railroad
man who predicts short life for the
fast freight lines, is evidently of an
envious disposition. no doubt for the
reason that the California Fast Freight
Line has succeeded in getting many
of the shipments to which he, as o
competitor, deems himself Justly en-
titled. The prestige brought about
by the good service rendered, and
which has been the result of winning
patronage from competing lines, un-
doubtedly causes this railroad man to
feel very sore, and it is with a cores
ponding degree of delight that he
halls the so-called collapse of the
California Fast Freight Line"
"Right here Twill say that his period
of happiness will be short if he builds
bis hopes upon this foundation, for
business by the California Fast
Freight Line, if so routed, shall have it's
usual good attention. 1t will hereafter
be known as the Union Pacific Cal
ifornia Fast Freight Line We pro-
pose not only to give the same courte-
GUS treatment to our patrons, but also
to better our service, and make as
good, if not better time, than any
line across the continent. l have no
doubt this railroad man has been
making every effort for several years
past, to convince shippers that the
California Fast Freight Line is a "de-
ception." The volume Of business,
however, carried by the California
Fast Freight Line, has been such, no
doubt, as to stir up the enmity of COM
peting lines. 1t goes without saying,
judging from the few remarks
that this so called railroad man
makes, that the California Fast
Freight Line has been thorn in his
side, and l am quite positive that this
thorn has lost none of its sharp edge
and will still continue to irritate his
flesh. In fact I do not think, if he
does justice to the line which he rep
resents, that he will have much op-
portunity of warming the seat Of his
chair, unless, perchance, he be a fig
urehead and shifts the burden of his
labors upon some poor soliciting
agent. Shippers of experience under
stand fully that far from deception
are the aims of the California Fast
Freight Line, but an unusual combin-
alton of circumstances, brought about
by the Great Ruler who controls the
elements, caused many delays from
which no line was exempt. do not
doubt that this railroad man has in
al probability been endeavoring very
hard to practice little deception, not
to mention perhaps a device or two.
At the same time it will be we'll for
shippers by transcontinental lines to
understand that through freight by
the Union Pacific California Fast
Freight Line will have all possible at
tention, and that by this line there is
no slow freight"

the construction Of the new depot
building. These men all came from
the California end Oregon line, and
are the most experienced carpenters
the company could obtain anywhere.
Over three car loads OF the iron to be
used in the structure are upon the
grounds, and in addition to this, there
are great quantities of brick and other
materials, including one car load of
glass which is to be used in the roof
and upper sides of the structure.
A new plan, is one regarding the
heating of the offices and waiting
rooms. For this purpose cellar is
being dug, and in it will be placed
large furnace, which will be used to
heat every part of the building by
steam. Any near idea of how long it
will take to complete the work cannot
be obtained, but guess places it at
between three and four months. Work
will commence in earnest next week.

The following joint notice was re-
ceived at the office of the Union Pa
cific company in this city yesterday
morning. Mr.. AL. j. Hechtman said
that he had been expecting it for the
past six weeks and that it did not sur
prise him in the least. AS regards
the California Fast Freight line, it will
not make any difference, for the with
drawal Of the above roads will only,
SO it is said, increase the earnings OF
the Union Pacific, which will no
longer have to pay them anything.
On the other hand, the cost OF operat
ing the line alone will be great deal
increased, but the Union Pacific in
tends to stick to the business
until the last, and hereafter
what has been known as
the California Fast Freight Line"
will be known as the "Union Pacific
Fast Freight Line" and the freight
handled by it will be sent through in
rush. The Union Pacific Co. has
plenty of rolling stock, and will not
be in the least embarrassed for it. An
official of rival route says that 7. J.
Potter, Vice-President of the Union
Pacific road, told him that the line
would be abandoned, but this state
ment is positively denied here. Fol-

In regard to this matter the San

ing in its issue of the Sd inst:
"'The collapse of the California
Fast Freight Line,' said railroad
man yesterday, shows conclusively
that this element OF the railway oper-
alton is to be short lived on all the
railroads in the land. Why? For
the simple reason that it no longer
deceives the shipper to be told that
his goods will be sent by fast
freight line. He knows we'll enough
that all that will be done to his ship
ments will be to send it through in
the same train with others that have
not been carefully marked, Via the
fast-freight line.' 1t was a pleasant
little deception while it lasted, but
now all shippers Of experience under
stand that slow freight on the trans.

canoe as fast freight in this connec-

SAN Francisco, March 5.-It was
settled this morning that coasting
sailors are not subject to the provis-
ions of the shipping act, no matter
at what port articles are signed.
Judge Sawyer, by quashing the in
dictment against Thomas Mason and
four others for desertion, has effect
ually settled this question. The ac-
cusations against these men originated
in the sailors strike on board the
Queen of the Pacific last fall. Mason
and his associates left in body just
as the steamer was about to sail and
after they had signed the private
articles of the Pacific Coast Steam
ship Company. They were arrested
and Judge Hoffman decided that
there was no case against them. The
company wanted a test case made
and had the men indicted again by

Judge Hoffman was sustained.

estimates for 1888. The net decrease
is shown to be 99O5,5S1 excluding the
