The report of the committee was adopted.
j. .. Coleman of the Invitation Commit
tee stated that it was proposed to have
printed 5000 invitations and also LOCO or
more souvenirs. Several designs for the
latter We're submitted, as were also samples
OF the different kinds of admission tickets.
1t was the unanimous opinion that the
committee were fully competent to select
the most suitable and tasty designs that
were submitted to them, and they were
given full power to act in the matter
1t was ordered that the number of admis-
sion tickets be limited to 800. San Fran
cisco could, it was estimated, be relied upon
to take about 120 tickets, and the remain
der would be eagerly sought for in Sscra-
mento, Los Angeles and other of the prin-
cipal cities.
A subscription list will be opened at
Houghton's store, on street, on next Sat.
urday. 1t will be kept there one week.
The Supper Committee advised num-
Der OF changes in the menu card, and they
were authorized to use discretionary
power.
1t was resolved as the sense of the meet
ing that all military officers invited appear
in uniform. Major Ryan observed that the
majority of the officers were decidedly in
favor of appearing at the ball in uniform,
as they had no other dress suitable to
wear.
Mayor Comstock stated that he had re-
ceived replies from all of the members of
the local Invitation and Reception Com
mittee, excepting Grove l.. Johnson and
I. N. Lindley. Upon motion the names
of R. T. Devlin and R. P. Burr were sub
stituted in place CT the two gentlemen who
did not signify their intention of acting on
the committee.
The meeting adjourned until next Mon
day evening at 7:30 clock.
