Ihe Foresters Entertain on Their Thir-
 teenth Anniversary.
 The thirteenth anniversary of Court Merritt Heminway, No AS, F. of A, was very fittingly celebrated at town hall last evening with an elaborate en- tertainment and dance. The entertain ment was somewhat delayed onaccount of the crowded stage. Chief Ranger James flaming gave the welcoming address i'll very clever manner He also gave a few statistics as to the financial condition of the order and in an interesting manner explained the reasons why young men should join the order of Foresters. These are not only for social benefit but also to ob- tain financial aid Mir Hanning's ad dress, which lasted about twenty min utes came to close at 8:45, and inn mediately after the curtain arose to the greatest delight of the then impatient audience. The first number on the program of entertainment was the play entitled 'sTess of the Tenderloin." Each and everyone of the actors played his part in such manner as tO please the most exacting critic. The members of the cast were:
 Mrs Alice Danville. ..... Miss Bryant Charley Spencer. Michael McFadden Mrs Dollie Spencer. Mrs NJ. McFadden Dr Spencer. ....... R. V. Magee Cerise ................ Miss M. Dunn Tessie Lagrande. Miss A. Rodden
 The next number was soprano solo by Miss Rose Macdonald. This was followed by a monologue act by a tramp, Harry Dunn being the star. The Concluding number of the program was a tabIeau entitled Dear Old Stars and Stripes, Goodbye" The song was sung by R. N. Deland and the tableau was enacted by Messrs Claffey and Jarlott. After the entertainment the floor was cleared of seats and dancing was indulged in until the small hours of the morning. Refreshments were served in the banquet room. All the members of the order worked in har- mony and it was this fact that caused the affair to be carried on successfully.
 The Misses Hannah and Nellie Dow ney are visiting with T. F. McGowan and family.
 Edward BellerY is entertaining his sister from Putnam for a few days.
 The question of sidewalk between the depot and D. c. Sullivan's store on Shafter street, which received such sudden agitation at a meeting of sev- eral prominent citizens a short time ago. seems to have received the solar plexus blow. as nothing of late has been heard of it. At the meeting above named it was llinted that good cinder sidewalk could be laid for the sum of $250. Since that meeting there have been in the daily news items sew eTal arguments both for and against the expending of such an enormous sum for the laying Of sidewalk 100 yards in length. Although the writer does not wish to express any personal opinion. it is hoped that in the very near future somethinG will be done with rprard to this conjecture.
