HEARD AROUND
THE CORRIDORS
ANeELUs BANQUET ROOM
BECOMES A PAPER SHOP
BY THE BAvnsDRopPrR


The banquet room at the Angelus,
which has been the scene of so Much
mirth and feasting, is given over to
a new purpose this week.
To the Angeus came ]. P. CoyIe.
representative of the whiting Paper
company Of New York, and with Mr..
Coyle came ten trunks filled with sta
tionery. There was not sample room
big enough to make the display which
Mr.. Whiting had in mind and thus
the banquet room has for the nohce
become a paper shop.
Seems to me there is much more
attention paid to the boxes than to
the paper inside of them" said one
young woman who happened to be
looking at the stock. wouldn't that
tapestry box be perfectly lovely for
collars and gloves, or that leather one
over there. 1t Is a dearl"
The young woman was not far wrong.
for the display of boxes made of every
imaginable material seemed to be of
far more Importance than the paper.
Asked what kind of paper is the
most fashionable with the "smart"
people this year Mr.. Coyle said:
PLAIN white is the best. Organdy is
used most. OF course we have to carry
q large line of fancy papers for the
few who follow all the fads and fancies
What about checks? Are they as
fashionable in letter paper as in dress
goods?" asked the girl, and Mr.. Coyle
nodded assent.
The girl seemed to be most inter-
ested in some little gray cases with
a piece of white note paper attached
to be used in writing brief notes. The
gray paper is doubled and gummed
around the edges and this serves as
an envelope She also seemed to be
attracted by some thin white envelopes
| correspondence and in some note paper
bearing the day of the week at the top.

Tenderfoot Catches YeIIowtail
A twenty-one pound yelowtail for a
tenderfoot on his first trip to Catalina
| Is not so bad, thinks w. e. Brothers
jr., of New York.
Young Brothers, who has not long
been out of college. is a guest at the
Alexandria with his father, a wealthy
New Yorker They came to California
for pleasure trip and determined to
see everything that could be seen
Their desire led them to Catalina and
the young man succeeded in landing,
when he had been fishing only a short
| time, a fine yellowtail. He is now
having the fish mounted to be sent
east, and he is very much more proud
over his capture than he would be at
hearing stocks had doubled.
