| Last evening was a gala night at the
| Sutter Club, the programme bemg
smoker and impromptu parior minstrel
| Sy by local talent who Shone III new
role and were assisted by Messrs. Ros-
| borough and Taylor of the Olympic
Club of San Francisco. as well as by
Assemblyman c. NJ. BelShaw.
| Most of the members of both houses
were present and seemed to tho ioughly
enjoy the performance, which, in truth
was far better than that given by many
professional troupes that have played
| here. The singing was excellent, anc
| the whole programme was carried ou'
with vivacity, unity and correctness
| that was remarkable, considering tht
| limited opportunity the performers mac
| TO reheaIse together. T.. Myron Wolfe
| as interlOcutor, with three different SETS
of end men, kept the audience in a roal
and the hits at both legislators and res
| denIts We're neither few nor far be-
tween, and We're thoroughly enjoyed by
| the audience, not excepting the recip-
| tents.
Belshaw gave some excellent imita-
| tions of the style of speaking of various
AsSemblymen that brought down tht
| house, everyone recognizing then
| quickly. The stump speech of Edwin f
Smith and the warnings he gave to re-
formers We're thoroughly appreciated
and when he gravely informed them
| that 'reformers have no future" ano
gave his supposed experience in thai
| role and the reasons why he was moi
sent back as a legislator the second
l = +1.r,% II
| situat ton was appreciated.
| If any of the guests failed to find the
occasion an enjoyable one, there was
no indication that such was the fact
Refreshments were served and a socia
bic time followed the completion of thf
programme, and it is safe to say thai
the legislators who attended will carry
away many pleasant memories of theil
evening at the club.
