full affairs of the week have been in
compliment to the popular couple. Mrs.
Sebree has a charming personality and
the rear admiral has host of friends
on his own account, so that in or outside
the navy set they are favorites and al
ways the center of much entertainment
wherever they happen to stay. They
are at the Fairmont temporarily until
their plans for the summer are COM
pleted, and in the meantime are to be
entertained at many of the parties of
the Lenten season. Last evening Mrs.
John McMullin was hostess at dinner
party for them. Among those who met
at the table were Judge and Mrs. Err
skine NJ Ross, Mr.. and Mrs. Francis j.
Heney and Judge Gilbert. On preced-
ing evening Giles B. Harber, the COM
mander in chief of the Pacific fleet, and
Mrs Harber entertained at dinner
party at the Fairmont for Admiral and
Mrs. Sebree. Among those who assem-
bled at the informal affair were Major
General Thomas H. Barry with his at
tractive daughter, Miss Helen Barry,
and several officers from the Presidio,
among whom We're Captain Ferguson
and Lieutenant Leahy.
A portrait is reproduced on the
society page today Of Mrs. William
Meek, who has been the hostess at
informal house parties at her country
home during the Lenten season. Owing
to the recent bereavement in the family
Mrs. Meek has not taken as active a
part in society as she did in the earlier
season and will not be in evidence at
the formal parties for many months.
Miss Gladys P1att, whose photograph
appears on the society page today, is
one of the younger girls who has been
entertaining in an informal way, but
has not made her formal curtsy to
society. She is an attractive girl of
the demib1onde type and will be quite
an addition to the circle of debutantes

The of an army engagement that

Keyes of Los Angeles. Captain Oven

certs TO which society is lending its
patronage. Among those who are fore
most in promoting these latter concerts
are Mrs Emma Shafter Howard and
Mrs. Mary E. Huntington.
There were Iuncheons and teas last
week that were informal and quite in
keeping with the Lenten season. Tn
younger girls have managed to arrange
any number. of these delightful affairs
for Lent. not to mention the sewing

CASE
OF DESTITUTION
Charitable People Are Requested To
Assist Widow And Orphans in
Hour of Need.

A pathetic case of restitution and
suffering has just been brought to
light in this city in purely an acct
dental way, and the prospects are that
If relief had not been given just at
this time, mother and perhaps four
children might have persisted for want
of food.
The case is that of widow woman
who, with four, snail and helpless
children, resides out on Hardy street.
The woman is in very feeble state
of health, and is dependent en- lrely
upon her own resources f-r -e sup
port of herself and children. Until
within the past two or three weeks
she has been able to provide the ne
cessities of life for her little ones, by
taking in sewing, but owing to illness
she has been compelled to give this
| up.
Possessing a refined and modest dis
position, this little woman has con-
cealed from the public her true condi-
ton, and until it became impossible
for her to supply bread for her little
ones, she did not consent to accept
assistance from the public.
The mother, with her children, re-
Gently came to this city from Texas,
and, knowing that she had recently
lost her husband and was compelled
to provide for four little ones, Judge
j. E. Davis, who knew the family,
provided them with a house free of
charge. He did not know. however,
the destitute circumstances of the
family else they would have been re-
lieved of want without the necessity
of appealing to the public.
A charitably inclined citizen who
accidentally learned of the family's
condition, made an investigation OF
the case, and when he visited the
house on Tuesday afternoon discover
ed that there was not so much as
crust of bread on the place, and the
mother was sick and almost distract
