SUFFER- CLUB CHRISTMAS.

santa Claus Arrives and All Make
Merry.
The handsome rooms of the Sutter Club
were the scene of hilarious festivity on
Christmas night. The bachelor members,
led on by the gallant Majors, Ormsby.
Douglas and Robie, had prepared a mag
nlflcent Christmas tree and decorated the
rooms with evergreen and holly in an
elaborate manner. Appropriate bachelor
mottos were hung up around the walls,
such as: There Is No Place Like Home
Thank God There Isn't" and "Club Men
Make the Best Husbands-Only Few OF
Us Left"
r. L. Devlin called the assemblage TO
order and introduced Santa Claus, who
was personated by A. Abbott in an ideal
"make-up." He briefly sketched his
trip from heaven, and told how he left
General Sutter there gazing through 81.
Peters telescope at Sacramento and ap-
plauding her evidences OF progress. His
speech was a very cunning mixture OF
sense and nonsense, and his auditors
were surprised at his versatility.
Santa Claus then proceeded briskly to
hand out the presents, each recipient be-
ing required to open his gift in the mid
die OF the room. While some handsome
presents passed between friends, most of
the gifts were simply intended to create
sport, and they were eminently success
ful. All the employees of the club were
remembered, as well as every member
present, and some who were absent.
The music OF the occasion was fur
nished by the most remarkable band
which has yet appeared in this city. AL
together the affair was very Jolly one,
and made the old members feel young
again.

STREETS OPENED AT LAST.

Churchman'S Persistency Wins the
Day. With the Trustees Aid.
A petition against opening the streets
between Twenty-third and Thirty-firs
b and F, which the board had been asked
by I. C. Churchman and others to open,
was received. There are about thirty
blocks which are at present in asparagus
and fruit, and the owners of the gardens
and orchards naturally object to giving
up a good thing.
Trustee Green said that he considered
that the people owning property there
had the use of the eity's streets TO use
their crops on for the last forty-tWo
years, and it is about time that they gave
them up and the streets be opened.
1T. c. Churchman rehearsed the condition
of affairs and the action taken on the mat
ter some years ago by the courts. These
people, he said, had so far been able to
prevent these streets from being opened
and have enjoyed the use of the city's
streets for their own profit.
One of the parties, he stated, had said
last week that it had broken him up to
keep these streets from being opened. If
that was so ne would like to know where
the money had gone to which was paid
for that purpose. 1t is for the best inter-
est of the city that these streets shall be
opened and built up so as to become tax
producing. There are also number who
own little property there and wish to
have chance to get into and out from
their places and some encouragement to
improve them.
G. S. Won Ray said he owned little
property there and lived on it. He would
like TO have the streets opened so that he
could get to his work easier.
w. O'Brien said Won Ray could not
get to his work any easier if the streets
were opened. He thought the streets
should be opened through Agricultural
Park if these streets were opened. There
are thlrty-one blocks in this tract, and
the owners of tWenty-one of them had
signed this remonstrance.
Churchman said If he had had the use
of $40, 900 Of the city's money for forty
years without interest, and he was called
on to pay it back, he would probably say
as these gentlemen do, Let me have it a
little longer, / am satisfied to keep it.
am good citizen and pay taxes; let me
keep it,"
Mr.. O'Brien asked that, if the streets
were opened, his crop should not be mo-
Tested till he harvested it, which would
not be before next September.
The streets were ordered opened, Trus-
tees Steinman and Green voting aye, and
Trustee Conklin no.

The Weather Bureau reports show the

f. Siege Breaks a Wooden Shovel on
Charles Nelson's Head.
There was little Christmas frolic out
at Scheld's brewery on Monday evening,
and it resulted rather seriously for one OF
the merry-makers, Charles Nelson.
The latter, it seems, was "full'' and got
into row with a big fellow named f.
Siege, who came near making Nelson a
subject for the Coroner. He assaulted
Nelson with heavy wooden malt
shovel, which was splintered by blow
on his head. Bystanders, it is said, in
terfered none too soon to prevent Siege
from continuing the one-sided battle by
using the handle of the shovel on bis
victim.
Captain Simmons and Special officer
Goods went out and arrested Siege and
secured the pieces of the broken shovel,
which were we'll spattered with Nelson's
blood. The latter had been removed to
his home, where he was attended by City
Physician Terry.

A MISTAKE SOMEWHERE.
The Report Concerning the Death OF
Mrs. w. II. Winning.


Mrs. w. II. Winning.
A rumor was afloat in the city yester-
day to the effect that Mrs. Minnie Myers
Winning, wife of w. H. Winning (late
an employe of Mebius q Co. in this city,
had died in Buenos Ayres on the 10Th of
October last.
There Is a mistake about this, at least
so far as the date is concerned, for A. H.
Rott, Mr.. Winnings brother-in-law, re-
ceived long letter from the latter few
days ago under date of October 10th, at
which time Mrs. Winning was in the best
of health.
They left here in May last, and after
visiting the Worlds Fair sailed for
Buenos Ayres, where they arrived Sep
tember 30th. Mr.. Winning writes that
they both liked the country very much
the climate being very similar to that of
California.
Mr.. Rott regards it as very strange that
he has received no further word from his
brother-in-law if Mrs. Winning died
after the letter was written.

a very simple ana picturesque gown
from Paris is an adaptation of the First
Empire style. It is cut in princess"
shape, with flowing skirt, and is worn
with a very wide Sash of a contrasting
color, which makes the short waist seem
still shorter. The stocklike collar of
soft folds matches the sash. The long,
close empire sleeves have a puff covering
the elbow, with an inflated balloon puff
above. A fur collarette is worn with
this costume. This is a suitable gown
in which to make calls and to attend
day weddings, afternoon receptions and
the theater. 1t may be made Of silk vel
vet of a single hue, or Of miroir velvet,
or of the new wool velvets with dark
pile over a lighter background, or else
of Russian velours with changing sur
face of cords. The girdle or sash may
be made either of velvet o=-satin. Emil
hence purple, Russian blue, dull green,
chestnut brown and black velvet dresses
will be made by this model. The hat is
of black felt, the brim faced with velvet
and trimmed with a cluster of black os-
trich feathers.

CARE OF THE PIANO.
Some Practical Suggestions Which Should
Be Remembered.

Some Practical Suggestions Which Should
Be Remembered.
'sThe care of a piano must be begun
the moment the piano enters YOU
house." a piano maker said to a New
York Recorder writer, sand to be effect
i've it calls for the employment Of some
good common sense. If it be an upright
piano, do not stand it close to the wal
unless you prefer to have the tone muf.
fed. 1t will sound best across a corner
of a room. Keep a piano in the winter
in the coolest part of the room-not ex.
posed, of course, to frost or dampness.
1.-THE most serious injuries that befall
pianos are usually the results Of temper.
allure; either it is too dry or too damp.
From careful observation it is safe tc
say that 30 per cent. of the pianos in
cold latitudes have after the first year
one or more cracks in their sounding
boards. If your house is heated by q
stove, put your instrument in a room
without a stove-in one that is heated
from an adjoining room. If you have
steam or furnace heat, your piano will
do better if kept in a room that is not
quite warm enough for comfort.
"You know the sounding board-the
life of a piano-is forced into the case
when it is made SO tightly that it bulges
up in the center. The wood is supposed
to be as dry as possible, but of course it
contains some moisture and gathers q
lot more on damp days and in handling.
Now, when you put a piano in an over.
heated. dry room ell this moisture is
dried out, and the board gets fabby and
finally cracks.
"How can you prevent it? Easily
enough. Keep a growing plant in the
room, and as long as your plant thrives
your piano ought to, orelse there is some
thing wrong with it. Just try it and see
how much more water you will have to
pour on the flower in the room where
your piano is than on the plants in any
other room.
every one has observed, after pur-
chasing a new piano, that it soon takes on
a dull, smoky appearance. To remove
this use a fine sponge, tepid water and
CASTLE soap. Go over the case a little at
a time. The water alone, with the soap,
will usually be all that is needed. A
channels skin, as dry as can be rung out
of water, should be used to dry the sur
face after using the sponge. For old
pianos a polish of raw linseed oil, two
parts, alcohol and best venegar, one part
each, may be applied with good results.
Shake the polish frequently, use a soft
cotton cloth, n piece to rub it on, and
a large, clean piece to finish off with.
Bruises, usually on the front, can be
taken off by rubbing with powdered
pumice stone and water, or with sapolio.
Clean the keys with alcohol and water,
equal pats.
