An amusing incident occurred one
evening lately, when an Eastern young
lady, who was unaccustOmed to our
California sights and sounds, stood
with a party of friends ON a street
corner awaiting the advent of the cleo
tric car. 1t was quite dark, and as
they stood in a group chatting. afar up
the street was seen the faint glow of q
lantern. and as it approached nearer
the faint cry Of a tamale Vender was
heard. Nearer came the light and sound;
out of the one spot of brightness in the
darkness of the night issued the re-
sounding cry of "Tama-le," Grasping
one Of her companions nervously by
the arm the startled girl gasped:
What s-what's the matter with that
MANI" Her chagrin can be better
imagined than described when the sit
tuation was explained to her, amidst
the hysterical laughter of her COM
panions.

meeting at the Kingsley Art Room yes
terday afternoon The day being
rather unpleasant there was only a fair
attendance, but the programme was
nevertheless much appreciated. The
composers were Chopin and Brahms,
and the paper read by Miss DeLaguna
on the former was exceedingly graceful,
treating of the composers character
and disposition as affecting his compo-
sitions as we'll as the effect on the lat
ter of Poland's sad condition, rather
than giving incidents of his life and ca
reer.
