Nearly two hun- dred of “the best people on earth’” occu~ | pled seats at the very tastefully decorated tables to enjoy an excellent menu. The guest of honor was Grand Exalted Ruler J. B. Fisher, and at either side of him at the head of the table sat H. 8. Manning, past exalted ruler of San Francisco Lodge, ecting as toastmaster; the district depu- tles from the north and from the south, | and. the officers of the local lodge who were elected last Friday night and those | who served during the term just expired. | It was a gathering of representative men | from all walks of life, and it was a jolly | one. The menu card was in the form of | an immense elk tooth, surmounted by ‘a | clock with the hands pointing to the hour | of 11, the time when all Eiks rise and in silence drink to the memory of those who have gone before. The menu having been | discussed, Toastmaster Manning called upon the guest of honor to respond to “The Grand Exalted Ruler.” His response was a masterly effort, full of the broth- erly love for which the order is specially noted. Other toasts were: “The Exalted Ruler Elect,” by Thomas E. Dunne; “‘San Franclsco lndse" Past Exalted | Ruler T. F. Bonnet; “The Good of the Order,” | 3. J. Barret; “Eleven O’Clock Toast,” J. "Kierce; '*“The Northern Jurisdiction,” Deputy Frank Gray; “The Southern Jurisd! tion,”" V. Colonel J. R. Howell; B4 Beck; “Oakland Lodge,” Between toasts vocal selections were | rendered by the Elks' quartet—O'Brien, | Ogilvie, Lloyd and Kay. Mr. *Lloyd also rendered “The Holy City"” as a solo. Signor Castellano gave a tenor solo, Mr. | Todge Meivin. | O'Brien sang “The Palms," Mr. Ogflvie‘ sang “Romany Lass” and Signor Pardini gave selections from operas.

The summonses were issued by the collection concern without the formality of filing suit, and the offense is held by Willlams to be forgery and punishable by imprison- ment. On the face of the summonses the name? of E. W. Williams, the Justice's clerk, has been forged. The attorney for the company is J. N. Ross, who has of- fices in the Montgomery block, at the cor- ner of streets. The attention of Willilams was called to the fraudulent practice when an an- swer to a complaint was filed yesterday by Zenas U. Dodge as attorney for Mrs, S. Moffatt. The answer was numbered 22,684, and in it Dodge specifically denied all the allegations in the complaint. Upon investigation Willlams learned that no complaint had ever been filed, and he recollected a similar occurrence in'a com- | plaint purported to have been filed by A 33 Buuzfl Yesterday Attorney Ross ap- t the Justices’ clerk’s office, and he was sharply calied to account by Wil- liams, who said that the frauds must cease forthwith. Willlams later wrote an official communication to. the collection company, in wkich he expressed his in- tention to bring the matter before the Grand Jury at its next session. The fraudulent summons was signed by E. W. Willlams, by George W. Riley, dep- | uty clerk. Willlams says there is no such person as Riley employed in his office, and charges that his signature is clearly a forgery. Ross denies that he signed the names, and claims that it was done by some one in his office. Williams says that the concern has been illegally using the Justices' Court as a means of collecting bills. By falling to file suit in the regular way the concern saved the fees that are usually collerted. A few high grade sample corsets at oyal Worcester corset fitting parlors, 6 Geary st., cor.

Sexton, convicted in Placer County of an attempt to extort money by threatening to expose a cigar dealer for using unstamped cigar boxes containing cigars, appealed to the Supreme Court and judgment was affirmed some weeks ago. Yesterday Sexton applied to the appellate court for a writ of error. I appears that at the time the Supreme Court upheld the decision of the lower court it stated that Sexton should have been prosecuted for misdemeanor, but the court did not have the power tg set aside the judgment. The petition for’ writ of error is on the ground that the offense, if any, was com- mitted in violation of the Federal laws relative to the Internal Revenue Depart- ment and should have been acted upon solely by the authorized Federal officlals. ———— Large and select assortment Easter cards; prices right.

ISMAR THE GYPSY Discovery of Oil Lands Made as a Result of the Cclebrated Egyptian's Marveclous Powers. If Ismar, the wonderful Egyptian clal voyant and palmist, who for months has drawn crowds to her Oriental office, 1143 Market street, two doors below Weinstock & Lubin's, was at liberty to use the names of some of the people to whom she has glven sittings, together with their testi- monials as to some of the wonderful work she has done for them, there would be absolutely no room for any doubt as to her ability to forecast the future. Ismar numbers among her patrons some of the most prominent people of the city, and.the things she has correctly predicted con- cerning the future of some of them would, it properly connected, form an intensely interesting story. BSeveral months ago a prominent business man, who does not re- side far away and who is well known here, called to consult Ismar.
