And but a single house open in this
block! That's occupied by one Of
the legations. The Clover house
on the corner has been shut up for
so long. Miss Eudora Clover spent
a week or two there last autumn
and threatened to stay through the
winter. Changed her mind, how
ever. Went back to the ranch In
the Napa Valley which she has
made her headquarters since the
death of Admiral and Mrs. Clover.
The John w. Hewsons' house is

Mrs. J. B. Cromwells.' Mrs. John
r. Williams, too, has gone away
and taken the gay .orange-tinted

festive touch to the landscape.

THE Floods house, on the other
