The members and invited guests of the Hayes Valley Athletic Club, numbering several hundred in all, gathered at new clubrooms of the organization, La- guna street and Ivy avenue, last night to take part in the first annual high jinks of the club. The affair was a decided success in every vited guests were loud in thelr praises of the | particular and . the in-| the management for the evening’s enter- | | tainment. The night was devoted to boxing and other athletic sports. Many well-known members of the professional fraternity appeared, ‘including Eddie -Hanlon' and Harry Foley. In all there were twenty spirited boxing bouts. As soon as pair of boxers would finish one two__more | 1ads would take their places, so the sport was kept up without ‘intermission. Special Officer Gould, marshal of the Jub, was presented with a fine Panama hat as a token of esteem by his many friends. He was called upon to make a speech, and while he was thus engaged some one took the hat as a joke and the offended officlal went around the gym pasium threatening to make a rough house unless the headgear was restored. He finally got it back. After the entertainment refreshments were served. e e e VETERAN POLICE OFFICER PASSES AWAY SUDDENLY William T. Morehouse, One of the Oldest Retired Bluecoats, a Vic- tim of Heart Disease. ‘Willlam T. Morehouse, one of the oldest surviving members of the San Francisco | Police Department, passed away suddefily at his home, 2601 Sacramento street, last night of - heart disease. Mr. Morehous> was In good health up to the time he was stricken with the fatal malady. No ar- rangements have as yet been made for the funeral. Morehouse was one of the most familiar figures on the streets of this city. He be- came a member of the Police Department more than forty years ago aund was in active service up to a few years ago, when he was retired on a pension, being nearly 80 years old at the time. For a number of years Morehouse was stationed at the corner cf Kearny and Sutter streets and he became known to every one who passed along those two streets. He was very popular and was noted for his gallant manner and cheerful disposition. He was a great favorite at the Central police station with both his fellow officers and his superiors and the news of his death will come as a shock to thousands who knew and honored him.

Palms waved beckoningly in shady nooks and a minlature forest cunningly hid the makers of the music. The Entre Nous has grown almost to adult age in its successful career, this be- ing the fourteenth season that the mem- bers have assembled for their winter's amusement. An innovation that -brought joy to the hearts of the dancers was the relegation | the | of on-lookers, except chaperones, to reception-room, for it is the choicest nooks in the ballroom that. the non- pleasant exclusion of the dancers. The cotillon was led by Sanford G. Le-| wald, assisted by his partner, Miss } Five figures were introduced Maltese cross,.flags of all nations, lctter Z, grand march and the basket.

Miss Fraser wore a pretty frock of prim- rose silk fashioned in folds. Miss Edna Mohr was quite the daintiest maid on the floor in a gown of point d'esprit, trimmed with white satin, rib. bons and pearls. The figures were carried through with- out a flaw, and many pretty effects were produced. Particularly was this true of the “flags of all nations” figure. 30 te b orfeln drioieek The ——— .

Millionaire Director Is Not Mascagni. —_— | Though the Metropolitan Opera-House orchestra has almost persuaded to dis-| bellef in the necessity of a conductor | this week, there are still “times.” There was one at least at yesterday after- noon’s concert.

Silk Beaver Hats For Girls Good fortune again for the girls commodating Mr. Duss substituted by | general request for the programmed | “Lorna Doone” suite of Nevin. Over this | he waved a coloratura baton witheut dis- | aster, the orchestra going its own way | with delicious sangfrold. It was in the| “‘Pathetique” symphony that the orches- | tra fell perceptibly short by a head. And how one regretted Mascagni’s Mascagni did many things better than others, but nothing better than the Alle- gro con Grazia from the Tschaikowsky symphony. Yesterday's reading, compar- ably, had the poetry of the multiplication | table. ' Nor could this be wondered at. Some things must have a baton behind | them. The Con Grazia is emphatically of ! the brand. All of the supple pulse of the | movement was lost in a sort of clock- | work stride, that was indeed the only re- | source of an orchestra without a head. | rhythm, is chiefest charm of the move- ment. Mascagni, with a scratch orches- tra gathered in from everywhere,. gave | truly more pleasure in it than this rarest { band of artists. So much for a leader. | Btlxll'ye 80ds! How Duss does enjoy him- | self! 1 The *“Lamentoso” went well, the rich | palette of the orchestra giving its som- ber values with adorable beauty. ‘And then came the extraordinary Strauss, given first at Stanford on iuesday, then aghin on Thursday evening here and in | response to wide demand repeated at yes- terday’s concert. { To me the “Don Juan” possesses im- | mediate appeal, at second hearing taking on even a grace of familiarity. This tone | | poem is the first of the important works of the composer, 1858 its date. In all like- lihood therefore Strauss had genius, called “ugly” music, the favorite epithet | flung at his later work by the composer’s | | detractors. Nor is it willfully complex, | nor grotesquely colored. It is written | about a poem of ‘Nikolaus Lenau—for it | | is frankly programme music—with as its | keynote the following lines: So.long as youth lives on with pulse af: Out to the chase! To victories new a But there is the sinister ending, {on the hearth the cold is flercely cruel.” | And all this Strauss tells with illuminated | eynicism, for prir-arily the work strikes | one as intellectual. He has used to tell | the story themes sane and easily appre- | hended, a sometimes sinister harmonic | scheme, rhythms original and biting, and |a briluant play of instrumenial color. The resulting atmosphere is compelling. One is swept into the rrenetic joy and | shudder of it willy-nilly, drawn bodily { into the deep sweetness of its calmer mo- ments and left wondering after it as to the wholesomerness of the indulgence. At any rate, it leaves one with a deep de- sire to hear more Strauss. And more | Strauss.

But we rhould be than ful for her in any of her moods. The frank Mr. Duss confessed that the or- chestral scores of the Erkel aria programme were lacking, and that Mm Nordica would sing the “Di Tale Amo: “Trovatore” instead. The substi- of Tuesday singer gave the fine aria. Then she tucke. up her sleeves—or rather shed the royal ermines that she femininely came on in - and her neck ribbon—to the Erkel aria, with plano-forte accompaniment. This, written for her, turned out to be a aingu- larly fascinating Slavic song and was giv- en with_superb sympathy. The Wagner “Dich Theure Halle” and “Liebestod” of Tuesday’s concert were both repeated, but Mme. Nordica was not in their mood yes- terday. They failed of climacteric vaiu the radiant abandon of Tuesday’s render- ing being almost wholly lacking. She gave as encore the ' delightful ‘“‘Spring Song of Oscar Weil, and I hope M Weil was there to hear it.

Some weeks ago Jacob Eppinger of the bankrupt firm of Eppinger & Co. was Referce Green four questions, which he declined to answer on the ground that his answers might tend to criminate him. Judge de Haven | handed down an opinion yesterday sus- taining the ruling of the referee as to two of the questions and reversing his ruling as to the other two. The following are the questions: 1. Who attended to the financial the business? 2. 'Who, it any one of the firm, had charge of the financial department of the business? part of 3. 1s the firm interested In a warehouse business? . 4. Was there any one interested in the stock of the Pacific Coast Warehouse Company other than the members of the firm of Ep- pinger & Co.? Judge de Haven said: The first two questions ruled upon by the referee do Mot seem to be very material, but 1 am unable to perceive how answers thereto would tend to erimi) the witness. In re- lation to questions 3 4 the ruling of the referee should be sustained. The ruling of the referee in sustaining the | objections to questions 1 and 2 Is reversed, and his ruling sustaining the objections to ques- tions 3 and 4 is affirmed. ————————— NEWSPAPER CARRIERS ARE President Gompers Decides That They Cannot Enter the Ranks of the Toilers. The San Francisco Labor Council has a communication from President Gompers of the American Federation of Labor, in which he decides that newspaper carriers are employers and as such are not eligible to membership in the labor unions. The question has been before the local branch of the Labor Council for many months and after much discussion it was decided to refer it to Gompers, Gompers has also decided that the newsboys are laborers and that they will be eligible to membership in the Labor councils throughout the country and should receive the support of the labor leaders. Gompers ruled, too, that the junk dealers are in the same class with the newspaper carriers and that they will not be allowed to enter the Labor Council. The various photographic workers in the city have decided to form a union and their ~delegates will be received at the headquarters of the council. Henry Thie- ler, secretary of the Woodworkers’ Union, announces that the union did not issue an order requesting its members to vote for any one candidate for the office of Magor. v —————— * Piso's Cure for Consumption has cured coughs for forty years.
