Simplicity Marks Decoration of Ballroom. The Greenway assembly, given last evening In the new ballroom of the Palace Hotel, was a brilllant affair, marked by unusual epjoyment. appointments were characterized the greatest simplicity. In the ballroom palms and ferns were simpl!y arranged at one end to scr2en e orchestra. This was the only dec- oration, ve for baskets of woodwar- dia ferns and clusters of huckleberry by branches, arranged in the conserva- tory. It was the smiling faces of the | guests and the shimmering gowns and flashing jewels of fair women that gave the brightness to the scene. All the available rooms on the floor Adjoining the ballrpom were first util- ized for the occasion. These included the Empire, Conservatory and Louis Quatorze rooms, which were arranged =0 the guests could sit and chat be- | tween dances and enjoy the delights of champagne punch and ices. The guests were very late in arriv- | until just before midnight. Fully 200 guests lent their presence to the scene. There was no cotillon, as Mr. Greenway preferred a straight pro- | gramme of informal dances, the cotillon being arranged for the Christmas ball, which will take place on the 18th of the present month.

Special Dispatch to The Call: SAN MATEO, Dec. 4.—1In its issue to-morrow the San Mateo Times will publish a tabulated statement fur- nished by the builders of this city showing the location and ownership of all new buildings erected during the calendar year just closing, with the cost of each, which aggregate the sum of $402,160. , Commenting editorially on this phenomenal growth, the Times says: “It is safe to say that no other town in the West of equal population has shown so great an increase in build- ing. It follows that the access of population has been proportionate. It has been conservatively estimated that the population of San Mateo to-day is not less than 3000, as against 1832 in 1900, The present year's growth has been largely in excess of the two years preceding, and everything indicates that it will be much larger next year. “There have been many other im- provements in addition to those named. During the year the exten- sion of the United Railroads’ electric line was completed in double track to this city, representing an outlay of about $1,000,000 from here to the San Francisco line. The Southern Pacific has made improvements to its lines in bridges, culverts, double tracks, straightening, leveling, etc., which for the entire county aggregate about $300,000. The United Gas and Elec- tric Company has expended about $35,000 in new generator, engines, boiler and power extension. A new girls’' college has been erected and a High School purchased. “The transactions in real estate have been enormous. Exact figures are not available, but dealers place the fig- ures slightly above $300,000. “Before the closes it is most likely that plans will be perfected for well in white chiffon, triinmed with broad bands of lace.

Miss Florence Bailey wore a pretty gown of Arabian lace and net over white silk. The decollete bodice was trimmed with mink fur and a cluster of pink roses. Miss Frances Harris wore a hand- some gown of white brocaded silk and chiffon. Miss Elsie Tallant wore a white gown, embroidered in spangles. Miss Gertrude Hyde-Smith wore white chiffon crepe with gold cloth and white chiffon on the bodice.

Q—Bnck- ed flnancially by the United States Government, a salmon fisheries con- gress will be convened in Seattle, Feb- ruary 23, 1904. The attendance will be large and every man attending the session will be practically connected with the business. It is considered more than likdly that after the initial meeting there will be a gathering an- nually. The delegates will represent establishments from San Francisco to Alaska. One of the most important matters to be dealt with is probably that of the question of the canners of the State of Washington being given per- mission by the Dominion Government to erect and maintain a large hatch- ery on the Fraser River. As planned by those who are now working to make the meeting a suc- cess, the sessions will occur daily, ex- tending over a period of twelve days. It is intended the first two days shall be entirely devoted to the formation of an association or congress, election of officers, etc., and that the remain- ing time shall be taken up by the dis- cussion of matters of general interest to the canners all along the Pacific Coast. ———— e Keeps His Wife Chained to Bedpost. CHEHALIS, Wash., Dec. 4.—For treating his aged wife with ingenious cruelty J. B. Conklin, a veteran of the Civil War, is serving a sentence of thirty days in the county jail here. The evidence showed that Conklin habitually’ kept his wife chained and padlocked to a bedpost. He would bring her meals to her as to a dog, and release her only for brief intervals. Shame and humiliation kept the woman from making any effort to have her plight known, and when in- dignant neighbors finally released her she was nearly dead. @ ciiviviviieiriniviie el ik @ the erection of a large tourist hotel, which will be ready for the reception of guests by the beclnfln‘ of sum- mer. “During the year raflway franchises have been secured which will connect this city with the coast towns of the county and ultimately no doubt lead to a new coast line.” 5 Lack of Formahty Pleasing to Guests.

Regard- ing this episode of the war the major sald yesterday: “Lieutenant Cordua was captured with a number of Boer soldiers, but later released on parole. Barely had h Mise Katherine Dilion. | 88ined his liberty before he was en- gaged in a plot to assassinate me and the spiriting away of General Lord Roberts. The British, however, were warned of the plans of the German and | his co-conspirators and a trap set for Albert | and Mrs. | How- | the latter led to the recapture of Cor- dua, disguised in a British uniform. “After a trial by court-martial that extended over a long period, the lieu- tenant was sentenced to be shot and I was ordered by General Maxwell to execute the death sentence. FIRST EXECUTION. “The execution was the first to take place in South Africa under military. law and the case was complicated for me by reason of the fact that I had had charge of the German leutenant for eleven days, during which he had come to regard me as a friend. The day preceding the execution, shortly | after Cordua had been informed that there was no longer any hope for clem- ency, he requested permission to write | @ letter, which was granted. | | nt. Mrs. Eleanor Martin, George | Cordua’s | | Mizner, | | “The following morning the prisoner | faced a firing squad of ten men. Of the ten shots fired seven pierced Cor- dua’s heart. “In the afternoon of the day of the #xecution I received a visit from a | young Boer woman, who claimed to be intended wife, and appealed for permission to see him. She had not E. Avery Mc- ( been advised that Cordua had paid the penalty for violating his parole and the news of his death that morning com- pletely prostrated the unhappy woman. “The same evening the officers of the barracks were told of another plot to assassinate me. I was quietly warned to be on my guard. Several nights later I was aroused from my slumbers by a strange noise and detected some one slowly raising a window near my bed and a few seconds later the head and shoulders of a man protruded into the room. KILLS A PLOTTER. “Stealthily drawing ome of my revolvers from beneath my pll- low I took deliberate aim at the intruding figure and fired. Hur- riedly rising and summoning a guard I discovered lying across my window ledge the dead form of a stalwart man, which I readily recognized as that of a paroled Boer, who had evidently been delegated by the plotters to murder me and avenge the death of Cordau. “The midnight shooting apparently caused the diotters to abandon any fur. ther plans-they may have had to assas- sinate British officers, for no further trouble was had.” The major has been traveling through the Southern States, visiting former South African friends, and he says his trip to California is for a similar pur- pose. The man with a tender heart does not need to demonstrate it by the softness of his head. e —— Habit is an incubator; everything de- pends on what yqu put into it. ADVERTISEMENTS.
