A Pleasant Affair.

The "Old Maids Convention al
the Opera House Friday evening, for
the benefit of the Baptist church
was greeted by large and apprecia
tive audience. The stage was APP
propriately decorated for the occa-
sion. The program was pleasing
and entertaining from start 10 finish,
and Mrs Chattin deserves special
mention for her able management
in this affair. Miss Ellsworth of
Boise made model president and
was Unanimous in every decision,
/ and each and every member of the
play did their part we'll Pratt Dam
ron, as Prof Make-over," and Bert
Kelsey as his assistant, were equal
to the occasion, and the manner in
which they transformed the "old
maids" into young beauties was
wonderful to behold. Two "old
maids" were transformed into a
dandy moke very much resembling
II G. Madison, who sang a song in
his usual pleasing manner that
created great applause. Two "old
maids were transformed into sum
mer girls, blushing and sweet An
other with her parrot asked to be
made into a rosebud, she was tired
of being a full blown American
beauty, and her wish was soon full
filled Another desired to be made
thin, and the Remodeiscope accom-
plished this feat to perfection The
"old maid" and her dog-one trans
formed into "prima dona" and
the other into a long string of sau-
sage-was greeted with applause.
! There was also one tall and one
short "old maid" transformed irto
beautiful twins. But when the
president entered the machine to be
made a Trilby it Immediately col
collapsed, that was too much for it.
One of the dear 'sistern" read an
interesting article on Woman's
right to vote, that was thoroughly
enjoyed.
The entertainment was concluded
by concert and recitations. Misses
May Burns and Dona Harris rem
dered a piano Duet with much
credit. Misses May Kelsey and

with vocal Duet, with guitar &C

ALBERT PARIS DEATH
YELLED IN MYSTERY
Peculiar Circumstances Attending
His Fatal Plunge Over an
Fmbankmeut

SAN JOSE, Jan. I.-There are some un-
explainable things surrounding the death
of Albert Parr, the blacksmith who drove
over an embankment of Los Gatos Creek,
near St James street on Thursday night
Parr left his home on the Almaden road,
six miles northwest of here, at 2:30 o'clock
in the afternoon. AT $50 he was in the
City store on Market street and an hour
later he called at the blacksmith shop of
James Robinson at 6,El Dorado and San
Pedro streets. After this no trace of him
could be found until his body was discov-
cred the next morning under his team in
the creek.
Where Parr spent the evening is a mys-
terry. 1t is thought he must have driven
over the embankment at about midnight
or he would have been seen or heard by
passersby. Parr was probably stunned
by the fall and died from exposure and
from being tramped on by his horse
He had been Ill with the grip and very
