LOCAL HAPPENINGS.
HIGH PR1oE oYsrERs.

One of the most enjoyable occasions of
the season was the shadow social given at
Tacoma hall last night by the Good Temp
lars. The hall was crowded with young
folks and meTriment, and good fellowship
prevailed on all sides. At the conclusion
of program of more than usual interest
came the selling of shadows. A large cur
tain had been stretched across the end Of
the hall, and behind the curtain was placed
a strong light with a powerful reflector.
One by one the young ladies connected
with the entertainment stood between the
light and the curtain, so their shadows
would be outlined upon the Cbrtain In full
view of the assembly. The shadows were
sold at auction, the understanding being
that the person who was willing to pay the
most would be permitted to enjoy the ma
terial substance of the shadow for the re-
mainder of the evening. Prices ranged
from so cents to $4. One girls shadow
sold for $3.50, and when she was placed on
placed on exhibition a second time she
brought $500. The prices quoted
included oysters and other refreshments
provided for the occasion. A young man
who paid 81 for a "shadOw" demanded a
second plate of oysters on the score that he
wanted to get the worth OF his
money. G. G. Foster acted as auctiOneer.
A great deal of meriment prevailed through
out the evening and all present pronounced
the affair complete success. Inc pro-
ceeds Of the entertainment amounted to
S6065.
The program rendered early in the eve
ming was somewhat different from the one
published. 1t was as follows:
Guitar duet, Misses Taylor and Allen.
Short address by Rev. W. H. Shearman,
g. +. Templar.
Vocal solo, Miss Hopkins.

ABoUT THE TIDE LANDS.

Alfred Martin, clerk of the harbor line
commission, says in regard to the late de-
oision of the supreme court of the United
States, involving the title to certain
Submerged" lands on the lake front of
Chicago, as affecting the states ownership
of its tide lands. 80 far as [ can learn
the decision has but little to do with the
case of the state of Washington, except
that it, perhaps, strengthens the claim of
the state to the absolute ownership and
control of the tide lands. As l understand
the matter the court held in the Chicago
case that the state had no right to interfere
with 'navigable waters over which the
tide did not ebb and flow, beyond holding
