Mendslson at her residence, 1882 Temple

a number OF her friends participated.
The evening was spent in games, songs,
solos and dancing until q late hour,
when dainty refreshments were served,
after which the guests departed for their
homes wishing the fair hostess many
returns OF the day. Among the
principal characters noticed were those
of Mr.. Charles j. Blumenthal as the
colored sport, and Mr.. H. Shoneman as
the pugiist. Miss L. Stone as Gin
derella was very good, as was Mr..
Becky as the anarchist. Others, too
numerous to mention, representing
different characters, were very we'll at

We have always a great regard for
mensions OF true rhetoric. Our esteemed
contemporary, the Express, in its issue
of yesterday, had an article on the feast
of the Immaculate Conception. In ad-
dition to several big gobs from the
Encyclopedia, and other sources OF in
formation, relating to this sacerdotal
event, the Express hits upon the happy
expression that 'some traces of this
dogma may be traced" to period pre-
vious to the ninth century. Following
up the hint of tracing traces there is
really no saying where one would land.

SACRAMENTO, Dec. S.-The heaviest
judgment rendered here in msny years

over the coast, but got into trouble with
Lasb, when the fact came out in court
that the same formula was used that he
sold to Gregory. The latter then began

Next Sunday the first service in the

The most partial friends of the ad-
ministration will find it very difficult to
defend the Hawaiian policy of Mr..
Cleveland from any point of view. The
treaties OF the United States are made
under the Constitution by the President
and the Senate. Congress- is intrusted
with the responsible Office of declaring
war. All the sensational phases of the
Hawaiian embroglio were developed
while Congress was in special session.
Mr.. Cleveland declined to so much as
mention anything that related to Hawaii
while Congress was in special session.
This was at least breaking the purport
OF the Constitution OF the United States
in the spirit if not in the letter. 1t
forms one OF the most sensational epi-
sodes in American history. The whole
scheme of Gresham's Mugwump diplo-
macy has miscarried. Mr.. Cleveland
ought to ship Gresham, and the quicker
the better.
