FOOD AND CLIMATE.

There are individuals, q few perhaps,
in England. who are strictly vegetable
eaters, while large populations exist on
little else in the tropics where a small
proportion OF animal food only is con-
sUmed and that mostly fat. On the
other hand, in northern ATTITUDES lit
tie or nothing besides animal food is at
tainable. and vegetarian diet, if pro-
durable, would not sustain life in those
Re ions. For climate is an important
factor in relation to food Man, wher-
ever he exists, has to maintain his body
at q constant temperature of at least
IS degrees Fahrenheit, and it is obvious
that an enormous difference must eX-
fst between the needs of the Individual
who E---s near the equator with all sur
rounding objects at a constant temper
allure of s. 10 IS degrees and those of
one who inhabits northern ATTITUDES
where it is continuously below the
freezing point, 81 degrees, often to the
extent Of many degrees. In each case
the temperature OF the body must be
maintained at IS degrees or a little
more, or man win cease TO exist.
In the large and populous zone we
inhabit, which forms so extensive a
portion Of Europe. Asia, South Africa,
America and Australasia ana is known
as the temperate zone" there are very

the Members of the Bay

Judge Frank II. Kerrigan was present
ed with beautiful souvenir by the mem

ing, in recognition of his four years faith
full service to the club as president.
The token is watch fob, studded with

Last night was an occasion of much
joIlity at the clubhouse on Golden Gate
avenue near Polk street, and about 15O
members and as many more of their
friends assembled to enjoy the first
smoker" given by the new board of d.
rectors.
Rumors had been rife for several DAYS
past that preparations were being made
FOR ''hot time and in this respect the
members were not disappointed, as the
entertainment was above the average.
The amusement commenced early, Pres
ident Fahrbach presenting in turn the fol-
lowing well-known entertainers, who were
warmly received. Frank Thompson, Ben
Tarbox, Gus Creamer, Fleissner's orches-
ira, Will Finnie, Jack Cathcart, Kelly and
Marlowe, Jack Cooney, bob" Mitchell

came late.
came in the middle of the evening when
the festivities were at their height Dan
O'Callaghan called the Judge to the front
on a slight pretext. and held him there.
while in few weil-chosen words he told
him and the assembled guests that the
club, deeply approaching the Judge s
valuable services during the past four
years of his presidency, proffered him a
small token of the members esteem and
good will.
Judge Kerrigan's surprise and feelings
may well be imagined and It took him
some moments to. frame a reply, thank
ing the members for their Indebtedness
and generosity.
The meeting broke up at a late hour
with cheers for Judge Kerrigan and his
candidacy for Justice of the Peace.

elopement yesterday was frustrated by
an irate husband night before last.

tors OF the Palm saloon in that city.

detectives in his employ fully verified his
suspicious.
The guilty couple were located on Fri

in The words Of Miss Dalton, the Oxford
landlady

yesterday from the detectives who came
here IN search OF him
Mrs. LANCE and Barclay were going
10 the thedter last night and went out
together early in the evening, as she
wanted TO have her hair dressed. They
We're met, il seems, on the street, by the
husband, brother, sister and brother ;
wife, and they all came back here to-
loud talk in their room, but no row
They all left together al about half-paSt
o'clock. At about 9 o'clock Barclay
returned 10 the room, packed up All
their things, both his and hers, and took
them of with him in a coupe There were

cUR1osITIEs OF THE CALENDAR

There are some curious facts that
have lately been noted about the cal-
endar No century can begin on Wed
nesday, Friday or Sunday. The same
calendars can be used every twenty
wears. October always begins on the
same day of the week as January;
April as July; March and November
begin on the same days. May, June
and August always begin on different
days from each other, and every month
in the year. The first and the last
davs of the year are always the same.
These rules do not apply to leap year,
when comparison is between days be-
fore and after February 20.

MARBLEDALE.

MARBLEDALE POSTMASTER TAKES A
 SUDDEN BATH IN THE AsPETUCK.
 The frequenters of the store have been joking George Tomlinson all the week about turning Baptist. A very good joke it was, but one that might have had a serious ending. One of those freezir 2 nights MT Tomlinson, after closing his hen house door, started to step up the river bank by placing one foot on a stone near the waters edge, thence to ground above, as he had done safely ; twice day for years. This time his foot slipped from the icy stone and he fell directly on his back into the Aspe- tuck which is quite deep at that place, and very swift. Overcome by the shock of the unexpected and sudden fall into the freezing water, and encountered by his heavy overcoat, it seemed for few moments as if there would be vacancy in the Marketable postoffice, but the swift current washing him towards the bank he recovered his presence of mind enough to scram ble out. A sorry night, but except for the soaking and for the shock, none the worse for his his invol- untary immersion.
