wrote her name deepest and most In
delibiy in the annals or Mormonism.
But had she never have become an ad-
herent of that faith, her fame would
doubtless have shone with lustre In the
nation. ii not throughout the world.
Few writer's of the gentle sex In this
country were possessed of the genius OF
poetry In richer degree. While her SUI
perb endowment was more or less op-
secured from general recognition by the
fact that she chose her abode among
IA humble people, yet some effusions OF
her pen found favor far and wide. The
poem that is considered her MASTER

monographs In many home or the

AFTER THE BALL.
CALIFORNIA; First Clearing House Was
Net a Financial One.

The meaning OF the term "cleaI
ing house may not perhaps be IA
miliar TO all people outside of bank
ING and commercial circles. An IN
eidcnt which occurred during our
civil war may give a clear though
homclv idea OF what a clearing
house Is.
The occasion was in 1864, when
the citizens of San Francisco gave
the famous "Russi&n ball. to the Of
ficers Of the Russian fleet of war
ships in San Francisco's harbor,
which had been sent to the federal
government by the emperor of Rus
sia to the assistance of the northern
states in that war.
That ball was the most brilliant
affair of its kind that has ever taken
place in California. 1t was attend
ed by the governor and all the state
and municipal officers, the members
of the supreme and superior courts,
all the foreign consuls and the Off
GERS of the army and navy within
reach of San Francisco, besides
many of the old and wealthy Span
ish families from southern Califor-
MIA, all handsomely dressed and re-
splendent in diamond ornaments.
The large hall was splendidly dec
grated with Russian and American
flags intwined. The flags of the for.
eien consuls and lines of cages OF
singing canary birds were hung
around the gallery. A military
band and a string band supplied the
music. On the stage Of the hall
were stacks Of arms and accouter-
ments of war. while the rich dresses
of the ladies and the uniforms OF
the officers of the navy and army,
together with the grand official re-
gala of the foreign consuls, made
it scene of splendor and a wonder
and delight to the Russian sailors.
After the supper, which was serV-
ed in keeping with the rest OF the
ball, the Russian officers, the con-
suls and many of the guests OF hon.
or retired, but "the dance went on"
Soon afterward it was seen that the
walters in the hat room had become
confused in their deliveries, and
gentlemen, finding their hat checks
useless, were obliged to 60 inside
and search for themselves. which
resulted in soon covering the floor
with articles of clothing, from which
each man took that which fitted
him best and went home.
The following day a notice ap-
peared in the newspapers inviting
all persons who had lost their over
coats or hats and had taken others
instead to return them to a place
DESIGNATED in the notice and receive
their own. The result of this move
was a success, for every man who
had lost his own and had brought
the article he had taken recovered
that which belonged to him. the
writer being one Of them. This,
then, was California's first clear
ing house, though not a tinancla'
one, in so far as the basic principle
of the bankers clearing house Is
concerned.-Los Angeles Times.
