Bachelor Girls Club, and a few other
friends on Tuesday at 4:30 p. m. for
her sister Miss Hattie Elder Of Ennis,
who has been her guest for several
weeks. To be the guest Of Mrs. Doane
In her charming home Is on assur'

ded Joy Of meeting SO delightful an

and potted ferns were grouped ar
tistically here and there. No games
were provided, only the delights OF
pleasant conversation occupied the

oughly enjoyed by all. An Ice course
was prettily served during the party
hours.

THE DREAMS THAT NEVER COME
TRUE.

THE DREAMS THAT NEVER COME
TRUE.
Mamie Downward Peck)
Oh! the sweetest dreams that have
come to me,
Are the dreams that never come
true,
Which vanish away, with the coming
Of the day,
~ In dreamland's misty blue.
y, The longings and thoughts which
form these dreams,
D. Are the noblest and sweetest that
rings,
But these haunting dreams, It always
seems,
Are only the phantom Of things.
The sweetest songs that ever have
been sung
Are those only heard by my heart;
Their sweet. sad refrain oft echoes
again.
The dreams which OF life have no
part;
The sad, minor strain may vibrate in
vain,
For all save my soul pent within,
But these sweetest OF songs, to heart
music belongs.
And to heavenly music are kin.
So these songs and dreams which the
sweetest seems.
Tell Of things which our lives may
not know;
But beyond mortal life, Its struggles
and strife.
Who knows but these dreams may
be SO?
These songs here unsung, by swee,
angel tongue,
May be chanted In symphonies fine;
And enraptured we'll hear, they were
those to US dear.
In soul dreams and soul chords di
vine.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
 VERY GOOD


 B. M. Behrends, the Juneau banker and merchant. returned on the jeHer- son this morning from an extended business trip along the coast as far south as San Francisco. He stated today to The Empire that business and banking conditions along the coast generally are picking up and that a great feeling Of optimism per vades the entire business world.
 q saw practically no evidence of men out Of work In any of the cities visited. There seemed to be plenty of work for those that wanted it an along the coast. On Puget Sound es- peciany there is much work as the recent raise in the price of lumber has caused all of the saw mills shin gle mills, and logging camps to re- sume operations, and great many Idle men have been absorbed into tho working class.
 In the banking line ] found that an banks were well supplied with money to invest and any legitimate project can obtain good backing. However. a project must be legit- mate. Because there is O iooseness in the money market and capital is ready to invest. 1t does not necessarily follow that they are ready to wildcat on anything.
 While in San Francisco ] saw Mir. Lewis who stated to me that he would be here some time early in March and would be prepared to make the necessary extensions and repairs to put his water works in first class shape
 "In Seattle ] saw many old Alas kans, among them being Judge John R. Vim ard J. w. Troy. They were both stopping at the Frye hotel, and MT. Troy is on the Northwestern, Judge winn expected to stay in se- attle several weeks longer. but was not exactly sure when he would leave"
