a number of young ladies who sit all
day waiting for such splaShes from the
business waves. After reading this
subscriber will be conscious that his call
is overfiowed by a slight delay in the
inquiry for the number and two or three
sharp clicks which precede it. From
the overflow board the process is the
same as from the subscribers sections
just explained.
Now it is a fact that 80 out Of every
100 calls are received, connected up and
disconnected without any loss Of time
whatever, and the other 10 come to us
in times Of rush and are subject to a
slight delay. Furthermore, most of our
operators Will get little confused If the
rushes are long continued and perhaps
make the wrong connections, neglect
the signal to diSconpect, or make an
error in the number. If this occurs fire.

will not again be favored by these en-

evening that for the second year, be-
ginning IN April, the exhibitions will be
for members only, associates and a
new class Of members who are, by
quarterly subscription, to have certain
club privileges, among them admission
to club exhibitions. These will be given
at the clubrooms, where they can be
more frequent and at less cost But if
the quarterly subscriptions of 81 run
up to sufficiently large number, then
a hall will be taken. But hereafter
there will be no single admissions to
club exhibits. This will be better for
the club, put it's membership to less
cost and trouble and tend to strengthen
it and add to its maintaining force.

(Santa Rosa Republican,

Late Friday afternoon Governor Bddd
issued his proclamation for a general
holiday throughout the State on &C"
count of the defeat of the funding bill.
The issuance of such a proclama ton,
even if due notice had been given, would
have been a matter of doubtful pro-
priety The defeat of the funding bill
is but one step in settling a veXed
question, and it has been said not to be
best to ''holler until out of the woods"
Little attention was given to the Gov
ernor'S proclamation. Banks and busi-
ness houses were kept open throughout
the State. Saturday evening public
meetings were held in three or four
towns, but there was no general demon
stration. Instead of helping to con-
vince the world that California is in
earnest in it's opposition to funding, the
Governor pursued course in this mat
ter that has resulted in giving out exact
ly the contrary impression. If it was
wise to have a holiday on account of
the defeat of the funding bill, the people
should have been given time properly
to arrange for and celebrate the oc-
currence.

SO the evening flew away with guess

The promulgators of the Epworth
League deserve great credit for the
success Of the social evening. Other
young peoples societies will soon fol-

series Of musicales are now being ar
ranged, so that the association rooms
will be bright with healthful nlirth and
song during the remaining winter even

the Forward Movement Club, will give

On Sunday afternoon the Y. M. c. A.

pomona Times. }

Governor Budd proclaimed last Sat-
urday a legal holiday, the excuse be-
ing to give "the people" a chance to
celebrate the defeat of the funding bill
by Congress. Some people and jour-
mails said that in doing this he made a
fool of himself, but he didn't. Budd
isn't a fool, though like many sane men,
he does foolish acts and this was one
of them. It was denagogical. The
proclamation was made Friday, and
on Saturday morning lawyers, clients,
witnesses and jurors assembled at
courtrooms expecting to do their busi-
ness, but were abruptly told the Gov
ernor had made it a non-judicial day.
What a farcei And yet Governor
Budd prates of economy and of his
great desire to promote the welfare Of
the people! The people of the State
were damaged tens of thousands of
dollars by this foolish denlagogical act
of the Governor of California; aye, per-
haps hundreds of thousands. We don't
think anybody in Pomona recognized
this holiday-not even the banks.

The fifth lantern evening of the Sac

last evening Professor Edward Howe
was the delineator. The views were
the best ever shown here. They were
of great variety and interest, and were
worthy Of more praise and fuller de-

and likewise of something more of
warmth of expression on his part.
There is a good deal in a delineator
carrying an audience into the heart of
pictures such as were shown last night.
Mr.. Howe was too modest regarding
the beautiful works his club were show
ing. The views were mainly premium
pictures of the American Association
from the exhibitions of 1898. 1894 and
1895. In addition there were views
from the st. Louis and the Chicago
