ALAMEDA, Nov. 18.—Francis Dal- ton Bacon and Miss Leoma Gilbert, both of this city, have just imparted to their relatives the secret of their wedding, which took place at San Jose June 18. When the ceremony was performed the bride was 17 and the groom barely 21. The young cou- ple are now residing at 1144 College avenue. Bacon is the son of Mr. and Mrs. F. D.

Scaly 'scalps Nine people out of every ten have trouble with their heads. Many of them suffer from a species of eczema, which forms a dry scale upon the skin of the scalp, popularly known as_dandruff. If this condition be neglected the hair follicle loses all its vitality, the hair becomes brittie and falls out and baldness is the inevitable result. Coke Dandruff Cure has proved to be the only reliable cure for this annoying condition. Tt positively removes, with one or two applications, every trace of dandruff. Faithfully used it will cure every diseased condition of the scalp [except constitutional blood disorders), and will produce a luxuriant, glossy growth of hair after all other remedies have failed. This is a strong statement and one which we would not dare to make if we were'not in possession of thousands of grateful letters from people in every walk of life, who have proved, to their intense gratification, the wonderful powers of Coke Dandruff Cure. If you are annoyed with any scalp trouble whatsoever, get a bottle to-day. Your druggist will tell you the same story of uninterrupted triumph.

OAKLAND, Nov. 19.—The orying need of Cakland for an auditorium was never better exemplified than at the Redfield concert last night. Maple Hall is a pretty, comfortable and convenient place of meeting, but was never in- tended as a music hall. A delightful programme had been prepared by Mr. Redfield and the musiclans who as- sisted him, and Maple Hall was crowd- ed with his many friends and admirers, who appreciated the fact that a treat was in store and had come to enjoy it. But two or three of the finest numbers were almost spoiled by the "noise of dancing feet overhead. Then again, the acoustics are not good. But what are we to do? There is no more musical town in the State than Oakland, and ‘we have not a single hall where a con- cert can be given with anything like satisfaction to,either audience or pro- grammers, The Home Club is an ideal auditor- ium, but would be too small if in the heart of town. Perhaps some day some one with F. M. Smith’s spirit and love of the beautiful will awake to Oakland's need and give us a building that will inspire every lover of music with gratitude so long as stone rests upon stone. Many musical events, In spite of the auditorium handicap, are being ar- ranged for this winter, but they are all rather “‘up in the air” as to dates; the projectors seeming to hope against hope that a suitable hall will suddenly fall from the clouds. Mrs. Henry ‘Weatherbee—that always enthusiastic patroness of the arts—is engineering a couple of operatic affairs for ‘“‘charity’s sweet sake” that promise to be enjoy- able events of the new year. That old favorite, ‘‘Pinafere,” has been dusted off and given over to the tender mer- cles of a number of young soclety girls and men, who have already established a reputation as clever amateurs. Many of them have good voices as well as talents, and when one glances over the names of the participants—Misses Marietta Havens, Crissie Taft, Pauline Fore, Gertrude Gould, Joe Rosborough and others of that ilk—one's expectant hopes rise buoyantly and we eagerly await the production of “Pinafore,” for we know it is bound to be good. A little bird also whispers that Mrs. ‘Weatherbee is planning to give “Es- meralda,” with dainty, winsome Laura Sanborn in the leading part. Let s hope the report is true. [ The wedding this evening of Miss Julia Summers and William Kincaid, though a simple home affair, was one of the prettiest nuptial events of the year. The decorations of the resi- dence on Hobart street, the handiwork of the bride’s friends, to their credit be it sald, were graceful and delightful- ly artistic. Portieres of smilax were draped over each door, and the falry- like bower where the lovers plighted their troth was also of smilax. Pink blossoms were arranged canopylike in the front drawing-room, and every- where the effect, in pale pink and ten- der green, was dainty as the petite bride herself. A blonde of an unusually fair type, with pale, silvery hair, the bride was a charming picture in her gown of chiffon satin. The decoration of the skirt was unique, shirred sétin bands forming ‘“sunbursts,” in the heart of each being a chiffon rose. The long train was outlined with a wide puff. Rare lace and diminutive sunbursts fell the long veil that swept to the very hem of the train. Orange blossoms from the south covered the bride's beautiful hair and she carried a shower of snowy roses. Misses Beulah and Mirlam Summers, in white, attended their sister and led the way to the bridal bower, unfolding long gaglands of smilax as they went, thus forming an aisle. The bride was escorted by both father and mother, an innovation gthat seemed to give an unusual sacredness to the nuptial bless- ing. Mrs. Summers was handsomely gowned in white and carried pink roses. Rev. E. 8. Williams of Saratoga, an old friend of Mr. Kincaid, read the Episcopal marriage service and the {groom was attended by Willlam H. Jordan Jr. On their retur? from their honey- moon trip, Mr. and Mrs. Kincaid will reside at the Hotel Touraine for the winter. The bride is a daughter of Dr. and Mrs. R. A. Summers. The groom is in charge of transportation of the North- ern Commercial Company. s e Mrs. Jennie E. Manuel of this city and George W. Klopp, a business man of San Francisco, were married this morning at the bride's home on Four- teenth street, by Rev. Charles T. Walk- ley of St. Paul's. The bride is the sister of Mrs. Charles H.

DROP DURING NIGHT lemeeings W YORK, Nov. 19.—To-day’s stock market contested the reaction- ary tendency which 'developed yester- } advance. ward movement after the appearance held, and the closing was and generally below the best. During the first hour many prominent stocks went below last night’s level. The bank statement seemed to reassure sentiment to some extent. The decline cated by the week’s currency move- ment, but the Jpan, contraction reduced the deposits and the reserve require- ments so as to ralse the surplus slightly. But some misgiving over the money outlook was reflected in the late renewal of the pressure to sell. The bank statement reflects this week's gold outgo to France only in part, owing to the average system of c@mputation. To-day’s shipments, both to Paris and to Cuba, are not reflected at all, and go over to next week’s statement. The bespeaking of all avallable gold bars at the assay office for export to France next week shows the unsatis- fled requirements from that source, and the $1,500,000 shipment arranged for next week to Cuba is also to be reck- oned with. The loan contraction was'not unex- pected, but only because the effect of trust company operations upon the loan account of jhe banks is known from abundant precedent. It is obvious that the week hag mad® large encroachments on the available supply of loanable funds by reason of the active speculation In the stock market, as well as for subscriptions to the $30,000,000 of the Japanese loan and the purchase of $25,000,000 of Rock Isl- and bonds. The closing tome was ir- regular. Total sales of bonds, $4,780,000. The news of the week has offered much to confirm the expectations that business and industry would be stimu- lated by the passing of the election contest. In the stock market there have been traces of hesitation based upon the doubt whether the extensive rise in prices of securities which pre- ceded the election had not been suf- ficient to cover the enhancement of values based on improvement of busi- ness. Very heavy selling to take profits has been the evidence of this apprehension and this has caused oc- casional irregularity. But the ab- sorptive power of the market had the effect of dissipating the fears of specu- lators to a large extent, and the lat- ter part of the week shofved a revival of speculative confldence and some sensational advapces in market values as a consequence of a rush to buy cer- tain stocks. Bonds were very active, but business was still largely In speculative issues. United States bonds were unchanged on call for the week. —_——— The elephant in his prime sleeps only five hours a night, and the older he grows the less sleep he needs. day, but prices showed a reluctance to | There was a sprightly up- | i also of San Franc of the bank statement, but it was not | irregular | in cash was rather larger than indi- | 1 1 | LIBRARY ASSOCIATION MEETS IN SACRAMENTO SACRAMENTO, Nov. brary Association 19.—The Li- of California to- night held an interesting meeting in this eity.
