The third annual meeting OF the stock
holders OF the Seattle Athletic Club was
heid IN the gymnasium room last night,
and an exhaustive report by Secretary
Bean showing the condition Of the clubs
finances and reciting the Improvements
made during the past year was read and
well received President Goldsmith. with
a few well-timed remarks, told OF the
good work that had been done, and called
on the members for that loyal support
which should be forthcoming from every
one interested in the clubs welfare. The
meeting was largely attended. and rapt
attention was given both officials AT thu
conclusion Of Secretary Beams report
President Goldsmith addressed the club,
IN substance as follows:
The 5. A. G. Is now four years DID,
having been started al the time when the
commercial depression struck the Sound
In spite Of this. from the very start the
club has been a success. In fact fattering
success. The last year has shown a phe-
nomenal increase OF the roster. no less
than Ss5 members being admitted. bring
ing the total membership 10 date 10 S34
This Is undoubtedly the best showing Of
any club on the Pacific coast. and was
greatly due 10 the reduction OF the initia-
ton fee from SIS 10 s.. This has PLACED
the club on solid paying basis and after
the nrst OF the year the initiation will un-
doubleday he advanced TO the old figure
Sia. The success of the club in football
this fall has been such that We can conf
IDENTIFY hope 10 gain permanent possession
or the Great Northern trophy by beating
Multnomah on the 18th Of this month.
Mr. Goldsmith paid a deserved tribute to
Prof. Van Derveer. who left the club Of
his own accord to accept position with the
state university; he also mentioned with re-
greet the resignation OF Mr.. Otto Ceilings,
who left 10 folloV a new line.
The president thanked the newspapers of
the city for their loyal support. of the
club, and especially mentioned the mag
nanimity of the Post-lntellgencer in do
mating a magnificent tug-of-war trophy
and always standing ready to help out the
club in any OF its enterprises.
Mr.. Goldsmith spoke OF the esprit du
corps which is developed in the club, and
encouraged the members 10 foster II in
every way. He said the club was one which
every member might we'll be proud of and
called on each and every one TO lend his
aid in encouraging the football. baseball

with great qualification the financial con-
dition OF the club, and said by March /,
1885. the debt would be entirely wiped out
and the club be in a condition 10 put aside
a good amount each month for a sinking
fund.
At the conclusion of these remarks both
Mr.. Goldsmith and Mr.. Bean were given a
royal send-off by the strong lunged rooters
of the hrysanthemum-topped football rep

ADJUSTMENTS.
Daniel suliy in Daddy Nolan. :"


Honest. impulsive. open-hearted. with
mother wit buboilng as a refreshing spring
from almost overwhelming misfortune
that is Daniel Sully as Daddy Nolan. At
the Seattle theater last evening the char
acter was delineated faithfully, with
quiet effectiveness in itself a charm. before
an audience fully appreclative OF the eff
fort OF the actor As the Irish father. n
whose brain ragged the mental conflict be-
tween pride and love over the thoughtless
misdeed OF his son. Sully was true 10 life,
and hts representation throughout was one
OF artistic finish
On a level with the leading character
was that Of Frederick Eichler. by Dan
Mason, who set off the Americanized Ger
man in manner that was comedy itself.
Miss Miehelena appeared as Lena, and in
troduced several songs, which she rem
dered in a clear and melodious soprano
voice. She was recalled each time. Her
selections were Killarney" The Sweet
est Story Ever Told" and as an encore
TO the latter The Last Rose of Sum
mer." Her vocal accomplishments sup
plemented 10 a nicely the rendition Of the
part assigned TO her. Tom the hayward
son was given by Herschel Mayall, whose
portrayal was satisfactory. The remain
ing characters were in the hands of Mr..
Allen. Mr.. Walsh, Mr.. Robinson, Miss
Hanchett and Miss Marie Leicester Allen.
the last taking the part of Patty, a per-
sonincation OF mischief.
There is but one fault 10 be found with
the play as rewritten. and that is there is
a superabundance of petty comedy. which
might be Judiciously culled. a very funny
scene IS given over Patty's pepper pie at
the Christmas dinner.
Tonight "A Day in June" new play by
Mr.. Mason. will be put on for the first
time in this city. Mr.. Sully will appear
as Michael Nolan Mr. Mason as Rudolph
Bunger, and Miss Michelena as Helen
Farwell. an emotional part, which viii
be enhanced by the introduction OF a vo-
cal solo.

comfortably inside the door on which IL
is to hang. on the large piece, which We
may call the background. is arranged
series of pockets in rows. the bottom strip
being at least twelve inches wide and
about six inches longer than the width
OF the large pieces. Fasten this strip on
by cat-sttching II down with dark blue
linen floss. making the stitches rather
short TO render 1t secure. The pockets
on the lower strip are generally made the
largest of the series, for in these are plac-
ed the largest articles. Two inches space
is sufficient to allow between this and the
next strip. which is also divided into small
pockets and fastened down in the same
way with the floss. and so on, but the
top row should not be placed too high for
convenience in reaching.
When all the stitches are hemmed. and,
IL YOU please cat-stitched or bound across
the top with dark blue braid. the strips
are laid In place and stitched to the back
ground by machine. and the whole piece
is bound around with the blue braid. Three
stout loops are sewed on the top to hang
it by.

are designated by strips Of wide white
tape or cotton stitched to each pocket and
marked In bold letters, white or black cot
