PIERPONT MORGAN has
been socially entertained in
San Francisco. He was the
guest Of honor at a banquet
~ y IN the Pacffc-Union Club last
night. William H. Crocksrs
was the host. Bishops and
clergymen, Eastern visitors and proml-
nent local citizens. men on the higher
rungs Of professional, commercial and in
dustrial life made up the gathering.
No fault could be found with the menu.
The decorations reached the limit Of
artistic excellence, the appointments were
perfect and the speeches that shortened
two hours ran a gamut from light witt
cisms TO the heavy problems of religion,
education and finance.
Gathered round the fruit and flower
bestrewn table were some Of the biggest
men IN America to-day. First there was
the guest Of the evening, J. Pierpont Nor
gan, and his personality furnished the
theme Of every speech and dominated the
tone Of the entire banquet. Then there
we're College Presidents Benjamin Ide
Wheeler and David Starr Jordan; Bishops
Of New York, Massachusetts, Kentucky
and South Carolina; distinguished law
yers from many Eastern States, and our
own big men. Many Of them had their
say. and they spoke well, some eloquent

BEAUTY OF DECORATIONS.


Not one Of the guests could help re-
marking the beauty Of the decorations.
AS they sat down to the dinner the first
thought in the minds Of all was the ar
tistic and decorative effects of the table.
Two horseshoes with ends joined together
was the shape Of the table and all the
central portion was solid But for the line
Of plates all was flowers, grapevines and
fruit-the choicest of chrysanthemums
and the finest quality Of the fruit that
California could produce. Depending and
radiating from the central chandelier was
a green bamboo plant. On the walls were
indian maize vines and flowers Of every
description. The room was bower.
The dinner hour had been set for Z, but
fl was some time later before. the guests
fled into the banquet hall to take their
appointed places. With a hearty and a
courteous welcome the host Of the even
ing bade his friends be seated. Then
came course after course and the merry
click Of glasses and the conversational
sallies that make sauce and condiment to
the best Of dinners. And then the speeches
and the parting handshakes.

Wheeler talked Of the wonderful posi-

Bishops Of Massachusetts,, Kentucky and
