One of the prettiest outfits on the
hoor was q wagon drawn by four
pretty little girls, charmingly cos
tuned, and covered with profusion of
flowers. They represented Spring.
Half q dozen merry little clowns
created lots of fun both for themselve
and the others by their comical antics
and tricks.
The three little maids from school
We're there and locked charming.
Several representatives of his Sa-
tanic majesty we're there and danced
with the pretty angels and fairies.
The spectators were reminded that 1t
was ga starry night" by . pretty lit
tie girl. The bats were represented
The sailor and the negro bootblack
were also there.
Several pretty little girls as FOL
ly," promenaded with gallant
knights. Geo. Washington was there
in miniature.
And a great many others, dressed
in half hundred different
styles, danced with each other.
They romped and danced in masks
until $3.50 o'clock when they assumed
their natural selves and adjourned to
the refreshment rooms and enjoy
ed sandwich. cakes, candy and
lemonades. After finishing this
delicious lunch they again Joined in
the dance.
AT 10 O'Clock with tired feet and
happy hearts they went home to
again enjoy the pleasures in dreams.
Their elders took the floor then and
danced the morning hours In.
Mr. Julius Reicn, the gentleman
who keeps the hall deserves q great
deal of praise for the manner in
which he had the hall prepared.

MORE FIRES.
One Is Quickly Extinguished and
the Other Is Larger.


the Other Is Larger.
Sunday morning, about 1870 O'Clock,
fire was seen climbing the rear of the
four-story brick Maverick printing
office, in the rear OF the postoffice
building. The lattice work addition
to the building, which screens the
water closets, was burning, and an
alarm being quickly turned In, Engine
company No. rapidly appeared on
the scene and saved the building.
Two hydrants opened would potget
a stream to reach to the top OF the
building but No. engine succeeded
in throwing very high stream. En-
CINE No. did not have steam up un-
til some little time after reaching the
fire, and the Mission Hose company
was also little late in getting there.
The damage will be about 81 900,
fully insured.
This morning at about 4:30 O'Clock
fire was discovered in the chop house
Of the City saloon on West Commerce
street. 1t spread with astonishing
rapidity and, though the alarm was
given as soon as the fire was discover
ed, before the department had arrived
the whole building was wrapped in
flames.
The firemen set to work, but the
first plug opened did not give any
water and 1t was some time before
water could be procured,
In the meantime the fire
had spread and the adjoining build
ings caught and burned like finder,
although some were iron clad.
BY daylight all of those small
shanties between the San Pedro creek
aud the Washington theatre, except
ing one, had burned to the ground.
They were owned by Geo. Stumberg
and Chas. Guerguin. The formers
loss was about two hundred, probably
insured for half that amount. The
latter lost about $4,000; insured for
$1,000.
The origin of the fire is not known,
except the place where it started.
The following is q list OF the
firms burned out and the insur-
ance on each, commencing at
the Washington: First came an
italian fruit stand owned by Frank
Dorsa, loss $500. He saved about
half of his goods.
The Seem" saloon and chop house,
L.. M. Mckee proprietor, loss, $500,
no insurance.
A fruit stand owned by Tony
Cuccis, loss $500, no insurance. He
saved about 400 pounds of peanuts, .
bed, showcase and some clothing.
A Jewish clothing store owned by
man named Doddia. His loss
amounted to S.. 900, insurance, $3.50.
The "City" chop house and
saloon, was owned by the firm of
Hubbard, Stagner & Go though the
former owned the whole place, as
Stagner left the city some time ago.
A Chinese laundry owned by Sam
Lee was burned and q lot of clothing
belonging to patrons of the place was
lost. The amount of the Chinaman's
loss is not known, but 5000 would
probably cover 1t.
A, man named Tom Harris, who Is
an employee of one of the chop houses
burned, was heard to say this morn
ing that he knew something about
the fire. Officer J. Brown thereupon
arrested him as q suspicious charac-
ter. There seems to have been some
rivalry between the two chop houses.
