William Z. DOrrance and John Stewart,
after which all present proceeded in a body,
headed by two pipers to a restaurant at the
corner of Post and Kearny streets, where
the first banquet was held. Sixty members
were present and very pleasant time was

The first public affair given by the Thistle
Club was grand ball. which took place at
Union Hall October q, 1882. and was known
as "Tbe First Halloween Ball." The affair
was managed by committee consisting of
Andrew Crawford, George Wilson and Hugh
Fraser, and was a success in every sense of
the word. That ball was the means of in
creasiug the membership Of the club, and
applications to the number Of twelve and
fourteen were received at each subsequent
meeting. At the end Of the year 1882 the
reports of officers showed that the receipts
amounted to $500 % and the disbursements
to S342 30, leaving a net balance in the
hands Of the Treasurer amounting to SAT %.
The membership at that time had increased
to 126. In the beginning of 1888

When Judge Murphy asked the young
prisoner whether he had anything tosay why
sentence should not be passed, Barclay Hem

move for new trial, on the ground that the
jury received evidence out of court; that the
Court misdirected the jury on questions of
law arising on the trial; that the verdict
was contrary to the evidence, and on the
ground of newly discovered evidence.
Mr.. Henley added that for want OF time

B. Ross. The Thistle Club has been very
fortunate in the selection of its officers, aud
to that, in great measure, may be altrib-
uted the many successes achieved by the
club during the nine years of its existence.
The men see ted to perform the very
functions placed in their charges were all
imbued with that energy and enthusiasm
that are absolutely necessary in order to
bring about such results as those achieved
by this club; and itcan be said, without fear
of contradiction, that no better men were
ever selected TO preside over the dcstines
of any organized society than those chosen
by the San Francisco Scottish Thistle Club.
The present officers are-aliye to the wants Of
the club and no doubt at the end of the
year will be able to show to the members of
the club that their efforts will be productive
of much good, and that the year 1891 will
exceed All previous years in the phenomenal
growth Of the order and the number of sue
ceSses achieved. AT the present time the
club Is making great preparations for the
annual gathering and games to take place
at Shell Mound Park on the 4th of July.
The committee in charge ara already busly
engaged in making the necessary arrange
ments, and there is not the least possible
doubt that the whole affair will be greater
and grander than upon any former occa-

putting any money in the hands of the

the clubs Indebtedness.
Through this series Of misf0rtuneS the
members were not dismayed, and resolved
to work the harder in bringing about the
end they had in view-namely, that their
club should yet take its stand among the
leading clubs of the Coast.
A this critical state of the clubs financial
condition, ClanSman Alexander Sharp, who
WAS then the Royal Treasurer, came to the
rescue, and without any security whatever,
advanced the club sufficient money to meet
