T HE charm of summer seems to be
fading somewhat for the talk at
i society's tea tables is more Of
plans for the later season and en-
tertainments for the city visitors in
stead of the gossip from the country
that has seemed to be the sole diver
sion of the stay at homes for several
weeks past.
Many of the young girls who have
been away are returning and there is
a rumor of summer fatigue from Mill
valley and Ross that promises an early

town who is the incentive for several
of the smaller affairs is Miss Alice
MacFarlane of Honolulu. who win be

eral Funston, U. S. A

Mrs. Frederick Funston. will be among
the attractive young matrons who will
take an active interest In social af
fairs on this side of the bay this win
ter. She is established in new home
which has picturesque location on
Russian hill. It is regrettable that
Mrs. Funston must leave town within
a short time for the east and the
friends of the popular army matron
are entertaining at a series of COM
plimentary affairs prior to her depart
ure in October. Mrs. Cullen Will en-
tertain at q very informal farewell

family and few close friends among
those who will be privileged to say
adieu to the parting guest.

informal luncheon given yesterday at
the Fairmont and less than dozen

the Fairmont have a delightful atmos-
phere of returning enthusiasm, and
among those who have been entertain
ing at informal dinners recently for
his friends was Raymond Armsby.
while Mr. and Mrs. Robert Hayes
Smith have contributed not little to
the festivity of the early season at
the hotel

summer residence at Saratoga for the
later season.

The administration policy the of

How has that policy known? AS far the public
knows been moved the Sherman
law since Mr. Wckersham took Office and far the public mind

but do make objection to statements calculated msead

competition But the department Of justice has the slightest
intention OF proceeding against combinations of that and

ICE Subscriber. City. friend says that in
a river or pond that ice first forms in the bottom
freezes in mass. Is that correct?
The Scientific American in answer to
similar question says: Ice does not
form below the surface of the water
and rise to the surface. Water at 80
degrees is heavier than at any tenn
perature. AS water cools below go
degrees 1t remains on the top and the
water at the surface is colder than
anywhere under the surface after SO
degrees is reached. Hence water first
reaches 80 degrees at the surface and
ice forms there"
Possibly your friend has reference
to anchor ice." which sometimes forms
about stones and other objects at the
bottom of running or other water. and
is thus attached or anchored to the
ground Such ice is often found in
the Baltic sea.
