AN ENJOYABLE OUTING.
Members of the Gross Country
Club Go to Bolinas Ridge.

A number of the members OF the Gross
Country Club lett on the o'clock Sausa-
Ito boat for Fairfax. via the North Pa
cihc Coast Railroad. for a tramp to Lar
sens Inn, on BOlinas Ridge. and thence re-
turning TO Ross station, distance of some
twenty miles. The intention at starting
was 10 take the hOmeward- bound train al
Wildwood. but the trampers found that the
rain of the previous night had left every
thing so wet on the trail that the beaten
road was followed.
After lunch al Larsen's the homeward
trip was made. The driveway, though a
trifle muddy in some low places, was found
to be in good condition and the pedestrians
had a very enjoyable outing, a heavy
fog obscured the view of the surrounding
country from the ridge, but occasionally
the sun broke through The clouds and lit
up the landscape in most picturesque
manner.
1t is the intention of the club to hold
outings every other Sunday through The
winter. except when rain interteres.
On next Friday evening the annual re-
union and election of officers for 1894 will
be held at the residence Of John Thomp-
son. The programme for the ensuing
year will also be discussed. Several new
members were admitted to the club re-

OBJECTIONABLE MEMBERS.
A Close Scrutiny of Names of Appli-
cants to the Olympic Club.

The memb ers of the Olympic are in the
thrOes of another election for new men,
bers. Since the reduced initiation fee was
put in force with desire to increase the
membership to $500, there have been many
applications for membership. Out of the
large number proposed there have been
several names of possible members pre-
scented whose occupation and social stand
ing was not such as commended Itself to
the other members.
A notable case is that of a jockey at the
Bay District track. The members whose
attention was called to This fact are N ak
ing quiet vet active canvass against his
admission, and from present indications
are horeful of defeating him. Other
names upon whose qualifications there is
considerable doubt are being talked about,
the members being determined to preserve
the high standing of the club.
For those members who have proposed
these Objectionable names the others are
seeking some adequate means of dealing
with them. Indignation runs high, but no
steps will be taken until after the polls
close on the 18Th inst.
1t is expected that the next batch of
names submitted under the reduced initia-
ton rates will raise the membership to
$500. A close estimate has been made of
the chances for admission of those now
proposed. and il is expected that the num-
Der will be raised to 2450, leaving only fifty
vacancies to be filled.

The association is always ready to open
its doors to homeless and friendless young

Its inmates all pay their board, save in

sickness or misfortune makes such pay

Many young women are yearly received
into the ests blishment and MAKE their

exception and not the rule when any one
OF them fails to pay her own way while
she emaiuS there.

HE WANTS DAMAGES.
A Citizen of Eureka Brings Suit
Against the CITY.

EUREKA, Jan. THE city of Eureka
is again about to figure in a damage suit
The plaintiff, Charles Richardson, owns
property in the city at the southeast
corner of Z and Fourth streets. Several
years ago. when Richardson purchased the
property. there was natural waterway
running through the premises, which kept
it well drained.
When the streets were graded Richard
son alleges that his property was left sew
.eral feet below the grade established. He
petitioned the city to provide for the drain
age Of bis property, having destroyed that
which naturally existed. Richardson
claims that this was not done, and, as a
consequence, his property was greatly
damaged by the water, which was con-
fined for want of proper drainage.
In 1891 he brought suit for $1,000 on the
same charge. The suit was decided in
Richardson's favor, and the city was re.
Guired to pay the damages and costs.
Richardson now appears again and claims
that the city failed to make provision for
the drainage. and in the time which has
elapsed his property has suffered to the
amount of $500. He now brings suit for
that amount, and prays for an injunction
asking that the defendant be restrained
from combining the waters upon his lot
and that the nuisance be abated.

Faith nv Hearing.

II people were unable to act except after per-
sonal knowledge OF the facts with which they are
to be concerned, very little could be accom-
plished in any department or human activity. 1t
Is because men are capable OF believing and
willing to put confidence in any statements of
fact which are based upon trustworthy evidence
that they are able to transact business make
eagements of any kind. There is, doubtless, a
general Keeling of dstrust in the virtue of adver-
tsed remedies, especially when they are offered
mercy upon recommendation of the proprietors
and promise to cure any and every msIady. But
when the reality OF these virtues is established
by the testimony OF respectable and reliable
people who have been cured, the case becomes
the same as any other which depends upon evil
dence given by witnesses. Probably no remedy in
the history OF medicine has been so highly
praised. not by its proprletors, but by those who
have experienced its benefits, as that well-known
9lood-puriher, Hoods Sarsaparilla." which. I'M
Ike many advertised medicines, has never pre-
tended to be a panacea for every ailmeDt Ii has
been, however. highly effective in the permanent
cure OF diseases arising from impure blood, such
as Scroiula, Salt Rheum. Rheumatism, Catarrh.
ETC., and the cures of these diseases which have
oeen reported by the persons themselves show
that HOODS Sarsaparila possesses powers of
healing which are hardly less than marvellous.

serious damage to the orange crop. The

The cold weather of the last three nights
has been unprecedented In the history of
orange growing In this part Of the State.
The cold wave from the north set in before
sunset and prevailed until some hours after
sunrise each day, and although the Their

years for two or three hours before sun
rise, there have never before been three
nights in succession in the orange pro-

AS a result there has been the freezing

Now that the number of visitors to the

increasing crowds of strangers, many citi-
Zens are criticiZng the appearance of the
plat about the new City Hall.
The grounds are not at all in condition
creditable either to their keeper or to the
city government. On the north side of the
hall the plat Is especially unprepossessing.
What should be a grassy sward is desti-
tute of grass and looks like playground
for goats. Such condition of affairs
could be easily reme6ied. The gardene T
now employed to look after the new City
Hall grounds could extend his labors to
the planting of few additional square
feet and the care OF the same when the
grass appeared.
The additional expense would be infini-
tesimal and the Improvement in the ap-
pearance of the city's principal public
building would be great in proportion to
