Special to THE MORNING CALL

SANTA Rosa, Sept. 10.-With the dawn
of another and better day Santa Rosa's con-
dition has experienced a decided change
for the better The town is not SO feverish
now, and the public pulse is gradually
dropping down to normal. 1t takes some
time to recover from the effects of such a
gigantic celebration, and it is best not to
be too hasty for fear of relapse.
JOY was unconfined all night, and symp-
toms of unrestrained hilarity aud general
rejoicing are still visible on the faces of the
celebrators. The centers OF attraction dur
ing tie night were in the five commodious
halls devoted TO headquarter purposes.
Here the parlor in charge received delegates
from the other parlors, shook hands with
them and hunted up girl for the dance.
There were no wallfiowers, and partners
were always at a premium. Then, every
body wanted to dance at once. and, as the
space for terpsichorean exercises was some
what limited the pastime took on more OF
the features of q cOrn-cruShiDg match than
a dance. They danced just the same and
enjoyed unlimited icecTeam and cake be-
tween the numbers.
The committee in charge of the music saw
that the bands earned their money. There
We're few stops for meals, but the hats for
sleep and breathing spells were few and lar
between. Before the balls opened the bands
put in the time sereDading in front of the
various headquarters, and then took their
places on the platforms TO furnish insplra-
iiOn for the poetry Of motion.
Owing to the departures last night and
this morning the city is not 50 thickly pop
ulaIed as it was yesterday, but there is
enough excitement TO let the casual visitor
know that the celebration is still in prog
ress. There is more reom 10 the hotels and
consequently fewer cases of that tired feel
iRg which pervaded so many OF the visitors
yesterday. Where once man was won't Il
slumber in cot he can now have two oil
more large sunny front rooms at reduced
rates If he wants them.
The o'clock special TO the city last night
took away over 1000 of tho visitors, and
there was another revolt this morning in
which a large number got away. All the
folks from the country and neighborine
towns drove home last night with slumber-
ing babies slowed away IN the bottom OF
the wagon. They have not returned and
there are now many desirable hitching
posts 10 let III the town,
All tie veteran fremen are still here, and
are resolved to stick ii cut TO the last. Sen.
Rtor Mahoney is in charge, with a large

quet protruding from the muzze. The local
fTemen have made it wonderfully pleasant
for their visitors, and have spared no pains
to entertain them as veteran fremen should
be entertained.
Some IF the ancient ladies were quite eX-
hausted last night but an alarm Of fire a
10 O'clock revived their dropping spirits in
remarkably short order. The alarm was
subsequently found to be a canard, and the
suspicion is gaining ground that The veter
ans were being trifed with. No mishaps o.
any kind whatsoever have been reported
ana the celebration passed of according t,
prO0Tamme.
