Mrs. Cleveland gave a card recep-
ton, yesterday afternoon, which would
have been more largely attended had
more cards been sent out. Ihat wound
up the season at the White House,

a social way, until after lent, and pro-
badly not before next winter.

noticeable event, but each veal it

a little oftener during the forty days
of supposed repentance which begins
today, but they WIFI continue to do
about everything they did before lent
began, except to get married-marriage
in lent is still rtabooed, as bad form,
rather than as irreligious-and some

question been asked two weeks ago it

to be a doubt as to how it should be

facts. First, Mrs. Cleveland has re-
Gently become a member of the Wom-

Assemblyman Human Of Lander
has introduced a bill fixing saloon
liquor license at 5000 per year and inn
keepers. or those entertaining man or
beast at a certain distance from towns
$500. This is supposed to be in the
interest OF the better class Of saloons
and to reduce the number Of dives and
other low driking resorts.-Ex. This
means prohibition for Eureka If the
bill becomes a law, for there is not a
saloon in the town that could afford to
pay this license. Even $25 a quarter
makes them grunt to pay it.-ED.l

Breach OF Promise In High Life.

In San Francisco, DR.. Victor J..
stearns, a wealthy physician, has been
sued for 10000 for breach Of promise
by Mrs. Bridget Ramage, q well-to-do
widow. Both are prominent socially.
Mrs. Ramage is the widow Of the Japan
agent Of the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company, who died four years ago,
leaving the Ramage property worth
500, 900. DR.. Stearns' first wife was
twenty-five years his senior, but had
10000. which she left TO him. Mrs.
Ramage says she became engaged TO
DR.. Stearns soon after his first wife's
death. She told him she would man
age her own property after their mar
riage. According to Mrs. Ramage, DR..
Stearns has been leading a dual life,
and while engaged to her was main
tanning intimate relations with other
women. Twice the marriage ceremony
was postponed by him, and finally Mrs.
Ramage becoming suspicious, she met
another Of Stearns' inamoratas. The
two women had a stormy scene, end
ing by each slapping the others face.

Henry Warfield, of San Francisco,
filed a sensational demurrer to his suit
against him to cover about $50 for
goods purchased Of F. w. Meyer. War
field was slow in paying his bill and
suit was brought against him to re-
cover the amount. In his demurrer
Warfeld says the court has no juris-
diction, for the defendant has o
ced all allegiance to the Constitution
and laws of the United States, for the
reason that they are only used to rob
law-abiding citizens; second, that the
plaintiff is incompetent to sue, as it
appears upon the face Of the complaint
that he is a monomaniac or co-conspir-
ator with Grover Cleveland and other
traitors who %conspired to sell this fair

An Unhappy Young Lady.

There is a very unhappy young lady
in Virginia. says the Chronicle. Her
misery results from a most provoking
freak OF dame fortune. She had a
ticket in a monthly drawing scheme.
After holding it a month she looked
over the last drawing and discovered
that she had won s125. Sad to say,
however, when she looked for her ticket
she could not find it, and she has not
been able to find it since. She cannot
get the money without the ticket, and
the ticket has apparently vanished
forever; hence her unhappiness.

THE BALL.
Largely Attended aud q Most En-.
foyable Affair.


The ball given at the new hall last
Tuesday evening. under the auspices Of
the Masonic and Odd Fellow Lodges, was
. splendid success in every sense Of
the term. The floor Of the hall was
crowded with dancers. while the seats
around the hall were comfortably filed
with spectators. The hall was very pref.
tily decorated with the insignia Of the
Orders Of Mssons, Odd Fellows and
Daughters Of Rebeksh, as we'll as numer.
Gus flags, banners and evergreens, while
suspended across the east end Of the hall
was the word Welcome, constructed OF
evergreens, attracting particular notice,
the whole presenting q very cheerful ap-
p~earsnce. At about 9 o'clock the grand
march was formed, which was led by
Mr.. and Mrs. William Zsdow. and the
evolutions were made in stately form.
The ladies' looked unusually pretty and
charming. They were dressed not gor-
geously or very richly as q general thing,
but in excellent taste. Although in the
beginning the exercise Of dancing was
not altogether agreeable, as the night
grew older II became cooler and the
dances were more enjoyable. There is
no question that the new hall gave entire
satisfaction. The utmost sociAbility pre-
vailed, and ell present seemed to feel en-
tirely ct home. Prof. Rice's orchestra
furnished delightful music. An excellent
supper was served in the banquet hall,
adjoining the ballroom, and the tables
were beautifully supplied with the invit-
ing dishes prepared for the occasion.
The ladies who had charge Of this branch
Of the affair are entitled to deserved
praise. Dancing was continued until a
late hour, and If all present did not have
. good time appearances are deceitful. 1t
was certainly a most enjoyable event.

Profitable Investment.

manufacturer in New York, took out a
long term endowment policy for s., 200
in the Mutual Life. At the matuity of
the policy the company paid Mr.. Far
rel 5000 05. The premium paid by
the insured amounted to $4,525 IS, and
and the dividend additions accredited
to the policy aggregated 1920 05.
Hence the actual cost of the policy
during the thirty-four years, amounted
to 1926 60. Incidents like this are a
powerful instrument in educating the
