German Entertainment

The Washington Saengerbund gave one
of lis most popular annual entertainments
last teveniny, at tMasonicTemple, atthecorner
OF Ninth and streets northwest, when the
members and their wives and children and
friende gathered to the number of about
five hundred.
ft was a ''Children's Day" festival,
where the juvenile banner was ssupreme and
before which the seniors gave way from
$50 to 1870 o'clock, the occasion being
a masquerade bali exclusively for the little
people.
They came in all sorts of costumes,
their native witchery and pleasing dimples
being in many cases obscured by the
fantastic drapery through which the eyes
alone Were visible.
They indulged i'll grand promenade as
the initial proceeding, the merry throDg
having in it representatives or every age,
from the wee tot of three and five years
to the more sedate young men and maidcns
in their teens; and when, at the conclusion
OF the walk-around, the music changed to
polka, waltz, schottische, and two-step,
succcssively, the little feet kept time to
Bella Bocea," ''Wien Bleibt Wien,"
"Gondoliers," ooh. Mama" fVienna
DudeS,'' and other ravorite airs, while
the elders looked on approvingly. The
scene was quite brilliant, though the
heat of the evening rendered the participants
somew hat uncomfortable.
Light refreshments Were served TO the
little people prior TO the tome-going, and
when they abandoned the floor their
seniors took possession and danced until
midnight.
Among the well known people present
were: MIR. and Mrs Rudolph Schneider,
Mfr. George f. Dietrich, Mr.. w. Koch, Mr.

Large Shipment of Oranges to the

terry Cleared.

SACRAMENTO, CAL, April 13.-John
J. Clark, the self-confessed bigamist, was
sent to Folsom to-day to serve out three-
year sentence, the full limit of the law.
Clark is the man who, while working as
electrical engineer for the gas company in
February of this year, courted and married
a well-to-do young widow of this city, and
afterward left her under pretense of having
TO settle up an estate in the East. His
prolonged absence excited her suspicious.
She began to inquire around, and finding
that Clark had wife in the East, swore
out warrant for his arrest.
The officers who arrested Clark discov-
cred that the woman in the East was not
the only wife he had, but that he had two
Others, all of whom were in blissful ignOr-
ance of the existence of their rivals.
Clark, when brought to trial, pleaded
guilty in the hopes of receiving light sem
tence. He appeared thunderstruck when
the Judge gave him the extreme penalty.
In passing sentence upon him Judge Cat
lin said:
II see no reason in your case why
should be lenient. You have betrayed a
respectable lady of this city, and during
the first few weeks of your honeymoon,
while protesting the utmost affection for
your bride, you were writing to one ofyour
wives in the East. You have deceived
these women with apparently no twinge of
conscienee -

able pluck and industry that Santa Barbara
is displaying in the face of a discouraging
calamity.
1t is always a busy time, this season
preceding the flower festival, for a vast
amount of skill and planning and of tire
less labor is necessary to prepare the way
for that event, in which all Southern Cali
fornia takes pride. This year the conha-
grafton that interrupted preparations, de-
stroyed material, checked the progress of
the work and demanded new outlay and a
reorganization, has been met with undi-
minished courage and a cool executive
ability that has proved itself equal to all
demands.
Before the ashes of the old pavilion had
cooled material for the construction of a
new building was being hauled to the
chosen site adjoining the Arlington
grounds. In one week from the burning
of the old the new pavilion, floating the
American flag and strung with brilliant
pennants without, its interior bower of
beauty, stands proudly beside the tribunes.
An unfortunate misunderstanding in
regard to the canopy-top ordered for the
new pavilion caused little delay in its
completion. It has been finished, and, at
late hour tonight, the decorations are
far advanced, and a small army of men
have settled to their all-night task, which
is to make the building ready to turn over
to the Festival Association on Monday.
The circular dancing -foor-100 feet in
diameter-is covered with white waxed
canvas. The walls and double platform
for spectators, running around the build
ing, are also draped in white. The entire
ceiling is covered with strips of gold cloth,
pleated together at the center and spread
ing ray-like to the outer circumference. In
the center is chandelier 16 feet in di-
ameter, with $50 incandescent lights, to
which twenty garlands of pink roses are
attached. These are in turn joined to a
fishnet 20 feet wide studded with 80, 900 pink
and white roses, presenting an enchanting
effect against the gold ground.
The whole effect of the ceiling is of an
immense flower, the center circle OF lights
being the pistil, the rose-garlands and sta
mems and the rose-studded fishnet the en-
circling petals. Eighteen chandelier posts,
each capped with a cluster of six incandes-
cent lights, rise before the circle of seats.
The center pole is entwined with smilax.
The music stand, opposite the main en-
trance, has balustrade of potted plants.
Yellow and white draperies line the can
opied passage to the Arlington, and the
canvas-closed corridors of the hotel prom
enade, $50 feet long, are powered with hun
dreds of potted plants. Steam radiators
connected with the Arlington boilers have
l,aoY, introduced into the nayilion in case II
should be desirable to heat it on the even
ing of the floral ball, and 1000 incandes-
cent lights are strung from the top OF the
pavilion to various points in the surround
ing grounds. Gay colored streamers and
Japanese lanterns float in the breeze and
add to the brilliancy of the scene.
