A telegram there, | too, brought t.e reply that ne had that amount to his credit there.

Some of it is sent to the- British Columbia Smelting and Min- ing Company of Trail Creek and the ri mainder to Everett, Tacoma and East Helena. We have shipped a little, too, to Great Falls. *It looks to me as though there would be a tremendous rush to British Columbia this year, and particularly to the country | avout Rossland.

A Meeting of All the M:mb:rs Called for Tuesdav Ev:ning at the Baldw:n Hote', The San Francisco Boulevard and Driv- ing Association will hold a meetiug at the Baldwin Hotel Tuesday evening of next week. The following letter has been sent to tha members calling them together for the first time in a long while: SAN FRANCISCO, March 25, 1897. Dear_Sir: ‘As a member of the San Fran- cisco Boulevard and Driving Association you are hereby notified that a meeting of the asso- ciation will be held at the Baldwin Hotel on Tuesday evening, March 30, at 8 o'clock. Whiie we have not had a geveral meeting for a while, the executive commitiee and the construction_committee have been sctively and faithfully at work,and have accomplished much, althongh they have been working un- der many difficulties, . You have no doubt become familiar with the fact that we have succeeded 1n having the water company and Masor Sutro execute deeds 1o the City for the land necessary to build a bouleyard from teventh avenue (which we already have had graded and macadamized) to the Trocadero, that suoscriptions smount- ing to_$10,000 nave been obtained and that tne unemployed men of the City are at_this time engaged on this great public and char table work. » It 1s the intention to continue this enterprise and ultimately to reach San Jose. To Ao so successfully we must have the co-operation of every citizen as well as tbe public officials, We request you 1o attend this meeting, hear what our construction committee and officers have to report and to help us with your advice and presence, Faitnfuily, Bex1s, President. Y. ARLES JOSEPH MAGNEE, Secrel The construction committee of the asso- ciation is composed of Cornélius O’Con- nor, John McCord and C. C. Bemis. The greatest of these, it is admitted all round, is Cornelius O'Connor. He has labor hard and fast and Jong for the great drive. All the commitieemen, directors and of- ticers have done that. They see in the fu- ture a practically unparaileled drive from io and the Palace Hotel to San splendid mucadamized - road ked” and planted with a border of shade trees, over fitty miles in a stretch through a beautiful country—from the Golden Gate to the heart of Santa Clara, “It has been very difficult to get thi: we know not ol.” one would be materialiy benefited except the lawyers. The change would cost the State a large sum of money, while no I think San Francisco is the interested party in this proposed change, and her ardor might be cooled somewhat if our laws were amended so as to prevent so much State interference in her municipal affairs. Cities of her class should be allowed to govern themselves, and the rest of us should be glad to be relieved of the responsibility. i thing going,’” said Secretary Joseph Mag- rer last evening. “Such a movement is slow at getting under way, but now bas acquired a momentum toat should be taken advantage of to carry it to comple- tion. We have now $15,000 coliected. The money comes in much easier than it did. We need $30,000, however, to carry the road to the Trocadero. We want every member of the essociation to put his shoulder to the wheel at this juncture and create public interest and enthusiasm in behadt of the big drive. “I wish people would go out there and look at the work being carried forward there now on Seventh avenue. It would do them good just to see it, and, besides, ! itis a very pleasant streetcar ride. As I bave said, the idea is to conunne the drive fror the Presidio, and, having com- pleted the road to the Trocadero, to switch off near the Ingleside roadhouse lnud run almost due south to the County ine. “I had a talk with an influential man from Santa Clara County to-day who said that a movement is on foot there to bulld aroad up trom San Jose to connect with ours at the county line. Itis a splendid scheme, and should enlist the enthusiasm of horsemen and people who like to drive, as well as bicyclistsand pedestrians, We expect the meeting on Tuesday evening wiil be largely attended.”” At the meeting an interesting report was received of the big work already ac- complished; how after long and hard work the opening wassecured from the park to Seventh avenue, and then, block by block, Seventhaventie was graded and macadamized; how the Spring Valley Water Company, after long persuasion, has at last consented to the filling in of its “‘waste park,”” which lay directly in the way, and how the ocean boulevard or the great highway from the cliff to the Ocean- house road was built—all forming s very interesting report of well-directed and un- remitting effort toward securing a drive- way of which the City may be proud.

Still some were a good fit, and were handy to have in the house.

Putting the Finishing Touches to the Handsome New Quarters. Rich Furnishings in Which Solid Comfort and Elegance Ars Combiacd There is to be a housewarming at the new quarters of the Cosmos Club to night. The house will be thrown open for the in- spection of members and friends. Fires will glow upon the hearth, the scent of spring blossoms will pervade the rooms and 125 gentlemen will gather at the table to partake of the good cheer the hospitable club offers them. For the past two months workmen have been busy converting the old Lake school building, at the corner of Sutter and Oc- tavia streets, into this handsome, commo- dious, modern clubhouse. Nothing that taste could suggest, wealth command and the love of comfort desire has been leit undoue. The result is an ensembie of solid elegance. There is not a superfluous piece of furniturein the house; nothing ornamental that may not at the same ! time be converted into_the useful. The coloring of the interior is in rici subdued Carpots and walls blend. Warm terra cotta shades haye certainly been the favorites. They mingle with the ex- quisite Japanese papering of the wails in the lounging and biiliard roomsand blend bharmoniousiy with the carpeting of these apartments and the hall and reception- | rooms as well. The furnishings of these apartments are for tiie most part in Russia leather. There are great armchairs, the very look of which suggests rest, couches, divans—yes, and rockers. Then there are numberlqss tables. Large, round, mahogany tables, obiong tables, square tables, carved-wood | tables, and even the senseless little shelf on four legs, so closely identified with “my lady’s boudoir.” The dining-room and the adjoining music-room, which can be thrown open into one, are the most gorgeous apart- ments in the clubhouse. They are all done in white and gold, and are the acme of good taste and elegance. At the further end of the dining-room isa magnificent mahogany sideboard, twenty feet long. The dining-hall, ‘the music-hall, the private dining-room and the great kitchen, in which five white-capped cooks are kept | continually busy, are on the ground floor. | On the first floor are the reception-rooms, the lounging-room, the billiard-hall, the cardrooms and the big and littie grill rooms. The two upper floors are given over en- | tirely to the sleeping-rooms, thirty-one | in number. One fact of which Cosmos | members are very proud is that every | room is light ana sunny. After the dinner to-night there is to be a reception, for which 200 additional guasts have been invited. The c mmittee of arrangements—Me-srs. J. E. Runcie, J. P. Langhorne, William Tappenbeck, H. R.

She returned to the company, and was wishing them all good-by when sbe went into convulsions. She said she had taken poison and was anxious to die. Her friends sent for Dr. 0. L.
