Dean gave a dinner last evening at the Palace Hotel in honor of Miss Edith Huntington and J. D. Spreckels Jr., whose marriage takes place on Monday next. Covers were laid for twenty-four. The table was elabor- ately decorated by Miss Willlams in lav- ender orchids and white hyacinth ar- ranged with tulle of the same color and ‘Williamsi ferns. The candelabra shades were white and silver. Over the table was a shower of silver bells. The name cards were decorated with heads in water colors and tied with bells and hearts. No effort was spared by the hostess in mak- ing the affair thoroughly enjoyable. Those present were: Miss Edith Huntington, Miss Pear] Landers, Miss Daisy Parrott, Miss Spreckels, Miss Lily Spreckels, Miss Elena Robinson, Miss Helen Dean, J. D. Spreckels Jr., Knox Maddox, J. O, Tobin, Edward Tobin, A. B. Costigan, E. Warfleld, Guy Skipwith and Mr. and Mrs n Walter E. Dea: e Tl Miss Pear] Landers’ luncheon in honor of Miss Helen Dean yesterday at her home on Octavia street was a delightful affajr. The twenty-four guests were seated at two tables of twelve each. One table was made artistic with red and + purple fuchsias, with red shades on the candelabra. The other table was done in red berries, shaded to yellow, and the lights of the candelabra were softened with yellow shades. Those present were: Miss Emily Wilson, Miss Maud Bourn, Miss Gertrude Josselyn, Miss Margaret Mee, Miss Elsie Sperry, Miss Mabel Toy, Miss Edith Huntington, Miss Lurline Spreckels, Miss Kate Brigham, Miss Beth Allen, .Miss Margaret Wilson, Miss Gertrude Jolliffe, Miss Genevieve King, Misg Hazel King, Miss Ruth Allen, Mise Frances Harris, Miss Helen de Young, Miss Helen Murison, Miss Lucie King, Miss Mabel Landers. Misg Ethel Hager and Miss Olive Holbrook. A pleasant and informal hop was given at the Presidio last evening by the artil- lery officers and their wives. Twenty young ladies from the city were present with the chaperones and the gathering was a merry one. Light refreshments | were served and the dancing continued until 11:30. . . The music section of the California Club, under the leadership of Mme, Emilia Tojetti, has undertaken a very valuable work which will be halled with delight by musicians, students and music lovers. For some time Mme. Tojetti has been in correspondence with every public library throughout the United States and ascertained that finely equipped musical departments were a part of a large num- ber of the public libraries, the finest be- ing in Boston, Buffalo, Chicago, Philadel- phia and New York. Many of the smaller cities, such as Peoria. Ill.; Suffield and Bridgeport, Conn.; Utica, N. Y., and not- ably Los Angeles, in our own State, pos- sess fine music departments in connec- tion with the public libraries. San Francisco is known to be one of the most music-loving cities in the United States and it should have such a library. It would stimulate students to a higher degree of culture, for it Is a well known fact that it would be impossible for the average musical student to purchase for his own use the musical works needed as the groundwork for a thorough musical knowledge. The musicians of the city are intensely KITCHEN REQUISITES. Jim Dumps was father of a Who, by her brightness, / | The teacher asked Miss lass ; led her class.

Financial Showing Is That Citrus Fair Oomes Out Even. —_—— The recent citrus fair representing the counties north of Tehachapi was discuss- ed by the State Board of Trade yester- day afternoon. Secretary Filcher present- ed a draft of a report in part for the pur- pose of getting the ideas of the commit- tee on publication, which committee will put the matter into final shape for print- ing. It is determined that the results of the citrus fair shall be exploited fully and officially for the benefit of the people of the East who may not have heard about it. - For this purpose excellent plc- tures of the various county exhibits that were displayed have been obtained to be used in {llustrating a pamphlet relative to the fair, which will be printed to the | extent of many thousand coples, Secretary Filcher made the Tollowing assertions in his preliminary report: While the falr was attractive-in, its early stages, continued additions in frult and decora- tions materially added daily to the beauty and impressive character of the show. The central purpose of the falr was to emphasize some facts which are vitally essential to an intelli- gent understanding of the true climatic and productive conditions of the northern and cen- tral portions of the State. There is no doubt that it has accomplished its purpose. Another purpose of the falr was to show that oranges and other citrus fruits ripen earlier in Northern and Central California than in other parts of the State and the display made has_settled the fact beyond further possible doubt. The fruits of a country are the best possible indication of a country’s climate. Hav- | ing demonstrated the citrus fruit possibilities of the great. areas of Northern and Central California we have, at the same time, demon- strated the mild character of the winter cli- mate of these portions of the State. We have proven what has hitherto rested on assertion, that Redding on the north and Riverside on the south are practically one in the matter of temperature and production. From all stand- points the exhibition has been more satistac- tory than we had dared-to hope it would be. The attendance has been large and the edu- cational features have been greater than were anticipated. ‘With the report was a resolution adopt- ed by the California Real Estate Board, commending the fair as ‘‘the most prac- tical method of exploiting the great cit- rus portions of Northern and Central Cal- ifornia.” i Ben L. Brundage of the Bakersfield Board of Trade and J. W. Da&s of Por- terville, Tulare County, took ®rt in the proceedings as members of the board. The financial showing fpr the citrus fair was that the collections amounted to $843 50 and the expenses were $892 17, mak- ing a deficit of less than $50. It was estimated by Secretary Filcher that 150,000 adults and 50,000 school chil- dren attended the fair. St. Agnes Church Benefit. The parishioners of St. Agnes church have just completed arrangements for a grand benefit for the new children’s hall which, will soon be erected by Rev. Father Kirby, the pastor of St. Agnes. The performance will be rendered at Steinway Hall on December 18 and will be entitled “The Engagements of Cupid.” The young people of the parish have vol- unteered their services and some very clever talent has been secured for the oc: casion, —_——— Important.

Very SMVES HORSES FAOM SLIPPING Scheme for Improveme;nt of Streets Gets Trial The Board of Public Works commenced an experiment yesterday for overcoming the slippery condition of the bituminous rock pavement on Market street. The operation consists of profuse sprinkling, followed by squeegeeing. The experiment was conducted over that part of the thor- oughfare extending from Second to Sixth streets. Teamsters, policemen and others scheme was very successful. On wet and foggy mornings Market street has been so slippery that it was impossible for horses to secure a sure foothold. The Soclety for the Prevention eral animals whi¢ch have broken their legs by falling, and the policemen state that it is no uncommon sight to see more than a dozen horses down at the same time- within a space of two blocks. The Humane Society and the Merchants’ As- scclation have both sent communications to the Board of Supervisors asking for relief, and the experiment inaugurated yesterday is the result. The method of operation, somewhat modified, was imported from New York City, where it has proved very success- interested in the matter reported that the | of Cruelty to Animals has had to kill sev-| ful. wide open go along the street two abreast on each side, and the water gushing out with great force cuts the dirt and slime Sprinkling wagons with the valves loose from the pavement and it sweepers provided with squeegees follow immediately behind these carts and thor- oughly. squeegee the pavements. The carts on the return trip give the pave- ment another washing, which carries off all remaining dirt, leaving the pavement thoroughly clean and with its slipperi- ness entirely removed. The beneficial results are immediately noticeable. While the teams . traveling ahead of the sprinklers have difficulty in securing foothold, those following after the street has been flushed trot along without any difficulty. Many citizens while watching the work have expressed thelr emphatic approval of the idea. The work will be continued for several days before any movement is made to in- corporate it as part of the regular street cleaning system. It is suggested by the Merchants’ Association that meanwhile it would be wise to modify the method in various ways so that the most satisfac- tory experiment may be adopted. DUNKARDS OF KANSAS IMMIGRATE TO THIS STATE Special Train of Two Hundred and Fifty Settlers Passes Through Sacramento. Advices were received at the ‘‘yellow bullding”” yesterday that a special train composed of eight cars had passed through Sacramento en route to Lillis, Cal.
