These flies belong to the same family as the melon-cucumber fly, against which California has quar- antined. So great have been the ra ages of the fruit flies that in Queen land and Western Australia fruit ca hardly be raised. In Cape Colony, South Africa, fruit trees must be cov- ered with mosquito netting® to enable the horticuiturists to raise a crop. This makes fruit growing a very ex- pensive business, even where the Gov- ernment buys the netting and furnishes it to the farmers free of cost to them.

Mrs, Henrietta Haswell, 227 Ala- bama street, réported to Captain Bur- nett yesterday that her daughter, Menica, 17 years of age, had been kid- naped by Mrs. Martha Adair, who is only 18 years of age. She believed that Mrs. Adair was hiding the 1 semewhere in Fruitvale. :ecufl:, Bailey was detailed on the case and he applied to Judge Mogan for a vmc for Mrs. Adair’s arrest on a charge o child stealing, but the Judge dbcungd to issue it because there was no evi- dence that Mrs. Adair had used force | or intimidation. A warrant was, how- ever, issued for the girl's arrest on a charge of vagrancy. She is about to become a mother. —_————— mblm“‘pfmfn—fil the annual meeting of the Ohabal congregation, iz} paper .lraom and its annex, in:which were | | make their selections from the 1 | cisco’s best critics who viewed the dis- m Be Heard | Mrs. Wiliam Ger- | | | | ' | | San Francisco lovers of art found a ‘!real at the Palace Hotel yesterday on | the occasion of the opening of the sec- »cmd annual exhibition of the News- Artists’ League. . ‘The Mabple, | displayed in a most attractive manner ithe clever drawings and paintings of | local newspaper and magazine artists, | was crowded during the day and even- |ing by the patrons of the exhibition. | | to whom the first day yas allotted for | the purpose of giving them a chance to, e | | collection: In the opinion of San Ffan- ! play the present exhibition excels the! one of last year. This year’s exhibition is larger and possessed of more merit than the ini- | tial show, and ineludes the work of many more artisfs. ‘Fhe line and wash drawings, the water colors and the few but splendidly executed -oil paintings | have an attractiveness for the’visitors that holds their attention. A npoticeable feature of the .‘exhibition is the col- lection of caricatures of prominent men of San Francisco. Another is the well- | arranged collection of posters. There are also a number of {llustrations that have been reproduced in the daily pa- pers during the past year. The work of the color artists has been | displayed to a great ddvantage, and it provokes much favorable comment. This work is striking because of the difficulties - that attend their produc- tions by the brushes of men who are daily actustomed to work almpst en- ‘tlrely in ‘black and white.

The first concert of the twenty- | eighth season of the Loring Club was given at Natlve Sons’ Hall last even- | ing In the hearing of a large audience. Davi@a W. Loring, the director, was | prevented through an accident from conducting the concert. W. C. Stadt- feld carried out the work with genuine success. The singers were found not one whit less effective than in former vears, and of all the fine numbers superbly sung special mention should be made of the tender interpretation of Mendelssohn's “The Voyage.” The merry, quaint and whimsical number, | “The Three Chafers,” by [Truhn, was | rendered with stunning effect and ad- | mirable judgment. Miss Ruth W. Lor- ing, the pianist, accompanied the sing- ers effectively and A. A. Macurda and W. R. Kneiss, the soloists, rendered their respective numbers artistically. B e — North Goes on Vacation. United States Commissioner North has gone op a vacation, and Charles Mehan, recently appointed head the Chinese Bureau, will act as chief of the Immigrant Bureau during Mr. North’s absence. Dr. John Endicott Gardiner will act as chief of the Chi- nese Bureau. The Federal Govern- ment has adopted officially a Chinese calendar prepared by Dr. Gardiner. It covers a period of sixty-five years, from 1849 to 1914, and was compiled at the request of Commissioner Gen- | eral Sargent. ———— EXCURSIONS TO SANTA CRUZ.

COMING---GADSKI1 BASEBALL. SAN FRANCISCO vs. OAKLAND If you are, or ‘even expect to buy a piano shortly, you must not overlook a few indisputable facts. In the first place, it is very important that you select a reliable dealer, for pianos are risky things to buy and are often very deceiving in tone and appearance. In the second place, it is better to go to the concern selling the most pianes, for they naturally have the best makes. Manu- facturers always seek, as agents, the firm making the most sales. In the third place, if you are going to buy on the monthly payment plan, you must go to a firm well known for honest, upright dealings. Some contracts are very dangerous instruments. Sherman, Clay & Co. are one of the oldest established music houses in San Francisco. They are the second Iargest concern of the kind in the United States. Their new rent contract plan is an innova- tion. It binds them, but it does not bind you. SHERMAN, CLAY & CO. Kearny and Sutter Streets, S. F. AMUSEMENTS.
