CAN'T LOAN 'E,M.

Mayor Callaghan declares he is not
in favor of loaning the public schools
for any purpose during vacation, be-
cause in the first place there are so
many applicants for the privilege and
secondly, there are other halls owned
by private citizens; which are available,
and thirdly, because the schools need
fumigation and repairs during the va
cation to fit them for occupation during
the succeeding term.
This decision has been reached be-
cause of the application of the Sons
of Hermann, and of several other par
ties to open summer schools in various
public school buildings

At A COLONIAL
DINNER PARTY
Mr.. and Mrs. !. w. HelIman
Entertain Fifty
Guests.
The Little Hatchet and the Cherry
Tree Artistically Utilized for
Decorations.
Clinging Ivy Vines From Washington's
Grave Twined Round the
Menu Cards.

In no world more than in that sphere
where pleasure rules supreme does nov
city make leader and create following.
In spite of this undenable fact for
some time past it has appeared as though
society had exhausted all the resources
for the creation of the new, and it remained
for Mr.. and Mrs. I. w. HeIlman to present
to the devotees of fashion an entertain
ment at once patriotic, unique and
original.
This entertainment was nothing more
nor less than a colonial dinner to cele-
brate the birthday of Washington.
The history of the father OF his country
and that of the cherry tree are so closely
allied that it was most natural that the
decorations should consist entirely of
cherry blossoms. Neither was the historic
little hatchet missing, but was found
deeply imbedded in the cherry bark that
nestled in the midst of much floral love-
illness. The menu cards were an inspira-
tion-each course was marked by some bit
of wisdom of the first President, and the
card was tied to tiny piece OF cherry bark
and trimmed round with ivy that had
been brought from the last resting place
of Washington.
Mrs. Hellman and Miss Hellman, at
tired in colonial gowns, received the
guests, fifty in number.
Three round tables were used ana an
elaborate menu discussed. During the
service of the dinner there was music,
patriotic airs, OF course, being shown

SOLDIERS TEAM DEFEATED.

A Picked Nine With an Inrocent Name
uumbles PresidiO Pride.
The soldiers baseball team from the
Presidio was defeated yesterday afternoon
al Central Park by q nine nominally made
up of employees of the California market,
but really picked team, including much
of the available professional and expert
enced talent of the City.
The score was 8 to 1, but the teams were
very nearly matched. Wheeler, who
pitched the last few innings for the SOL
diers, showed form that might have saved
the blueboats the game had it been used
from the start. Among the few brilliant
plays was a pretty iight-hand stop by
Lanigan of a high liner that he took in
time to double up on a soldier stealing
from second. About 600 persons were
present. Many OF ;hem fingered on the
grounds after the game, hoping that big
hot-air balloon and pendant airship with
an advertising notice attached miaht
finally be made to raise, but they wer.
disappointed. The big balloon would
only swell out slowly and barely maintain
a rotund form.
Following is the detailed score of the
