GLOVES OF THE SEASON.

SnoT-white gloves stitched with black
or other color are considered most cor
rect for day wear on all smart occasions
Not only are these gloves seen at re-
ceptions, weddings, lawn parties and like
functions, but they are worn in the
street with white costumes. With church
or visiting dress, plain chamots or
lemon suede gloves stitched with black
take the place of white, and often tone
better than pure with the Joseph's-coat
style of apparel now prevailing; but when
the handsome costume is black or
dark in color, the white kid glove shows
to great advantage. Though 1t must be
admitted that light gloves soil quickly,
they look, when cleaned, almost equal
to new. Darker gloves, on the contrary
though much more enduring at first,
never clean well. To remove the sotled
portion means removal of the gloves
dye, also, and betrays the economy prac-
t3ced. Thus gloves in pale shades Of
fawn, putty, gray and mushroom, which
have been cleaned several times, when
put on look almost equal to new gloves.
The process Of renovation no longer IN
cludes the scenting of the gloves with
some offensive securing agent.

The attitude of the daily press of this
city is not such as to convey the i'm
preston to outsiders that any opposi-
tion to free silver coinage exists in Cali

not take the declaration of the daily
press too seriously They should be re-
minded Of the late municipal campaign

the support of single daily paper
We can assue the people of the east that
there Is very strong and Intelligent SEN
timent among business men of this coast
against free silver coinage at 16 to /,
and 1T is extremely doubtful If a major
ity of the people Of the state favor the
silver agitation. 1t will be pretty thor
oughtly demonstrated here before the
conventions are held next year how
strong the opposition to free silver is,
end 1t will not surprise us II California
Is found in line with New York and New

CALIFORNIA AND SILVER.

San Francisco Nerve.
In its quite full and very fair presenta-
ton OF the silver coinage agitation in
various parts of the world, the Review Of
Reviews for June has the following re-
garding the Golden State: California
was formerly counted single standard
gold state in its prevailing sentiment.
Paper money has never been used in Cali
fornia, and the eastern visitor who at
home never sees a gold piece from jan
uary to December, finds thai on the Pa
c.fic coast no money is in circulation ex-
cept gold and silver, one dollar bills are
unknown. AMI . silvaI dollar Is current
ev.rywhcre. lie people OF california
seem now to have become very generally
convertd to the belief in the free and un-
limited coinage oe both metals. Their
opinions may not be very wise or dis
crimina ting. but their growth in pro-
silver sentiment is not to be denied. The
Pacific coast commerce with China. Japan
and the Orient may account somewhat
for the growing belief in the necessity for
hnetalllsm. The construction OF the

The Finance Committee to Call Upon the

Messrs. G. j. Trenchard, John Kopp,
z. C. Hughes F. NJ. Overlook and s. %.
Harris, the committee appointed TO solicit
subscriptions for the regatta fund, will
call upon the business men and citizens
generally today, and expect that all will
respond literally. 1t is generally admitted
that the regatta can be made as grand
a success as could be wished, provided the
necessary funds are forthcoming. De-
SPITE the great success attending last
years affair, the directors of the club
were heavily handicapped by having so
little, comparatively, to offer competitors,
but this could not be avoided, because
many of those from whom subscriptions
were asked gave unwlllinglly, and not
few discouraged the project altogether
asserting that st was not possible to score
a success. This year, however, those who
were backward in giving for the regatta
Of 1894, have expressed themselves as will
ling to contribute Hberally, and judging
from the benefits the citizens generally
received from the immense influx of visit
ors last August, 1t would seem that the
efforts of the finance committee for the
regatta of 1895 will be rewarded with
all the success that is deserved
