THE LARGE CROWDS.
The trains from Monterey and the south
brought in large crowds, and the demand
made on the restaurants Of the better class
began to become nOticeably in excess of the
supply, potatoes and vegetables had to be
dispensed with, and prices had strong
upward tendency, In one case a party Of
four Native Sons were asked to pay 81 80
for a family pOrter-house steak, but this
was an exceptional char=e, 70 cents and 81
a meal were, however, common prices,
and beds acquired prohibtory value.
1t had been arranged that the Re
lief should leave for Monterey this
afternoon with the Golden Gate Parlnr, re-
turning thence TO San Francisco, after
brief stay but the boys were so well treated
In Santa Cruz they concluded to stay an
other day.
The final arrangement is for the Del
Norte and Reli f to leave for San Iran
cisco at noon to-day, the idea OF trip to
Monterey being abandoned. K i. D00lau
and Eugene f. Bert, both of San Francisco
have covered themselves with glory in
making visitors at home and in executive
work generally. The big event of the day
was the grand ball at the pavilion in
the evening. Some idea may be formed
of the elaborate scale On which the affair
was carried out when 1t stated that 500 had
been expended by the committee for sOuye-
mir programmes alone. The souvenir was
executed in the highest style of the lith0-
graphic art by San Francisco firm, and is
full of topical sketches and designs suitable
to the occasion.
THE GRAND BALL.
Over 1000 dancers crowded into the
pavilion just soon as the doors were
opened, and the Hastings Band of Santa
Cruz PLAYED the opening strains of the grand
march. The latter was led by Grand Presi-
dent Fitzgerald and Miss Sophia Finkel-
deY. The crush soon became so great
that many couples despariug of the poss-
bility Of getting a dance made their way to
tde headquarters of those parlOrs which
had halls large enough for dancing. Mis-
sion ParOr was one of these. and a great
time was had there. Oakland Parlor also had
a ball at the Sea Beach Hotel. Grand Orator
JosselyD, introduced by Grand President
Fitzgerald, made suitable address at the
pavilion du;iug an interval between the
dances in the evening.
MR.. JossELYN's GRAFTON.
The speaker Of the day, Mr.. W. 3. joss =
elyn, in his peroralion delivered glowing
and impassioned tribute to tie State of his
birth, to its early history and struggles. to
its development from mineral wealth to its
golden harvest of fruit and flowers and to
its sturdy sons and beautiful daughters,
born under its sunny skies and nurtured by
its fruitful fields ever advancing, never
retrogradDg, until it is ''as firmly fixed as
the eternal hills. the enduring stars and the
never fading lights" in the nations bright
galaxy of jewels. From the garden of his
Imagination he gathered the sweetest fiow-
ers of poesy, from which he wreathed
garland, brilliant in oratorical colOring.
