Ladies Witness Impressive Ceremonies and Agree| { That All Will Be Well e .BY LAURA BRIDE POWERS. “Congratulations to the California Club!"—so say every one of the five | hundred women who participated yes {terday in the services incident to lay- ing the cornerstone of the long- ‘dreamed of clubhouse—that famous ! clubhouse that has caused so many | headaches, used up two building com- !mittees and a couple of architects. | The latter, however, have both sur- ivived, and the clubhouse is well on its way. } The plans of the clubhouse are said |to be highly satisfactory to all the on-kicking” members of the club, | who, the gods be thanked, are greatly iin the majority. And thus were the | ceremonies of yesterday of intense in- {terest. The papers incident to the service were read in the clubrooms, and were las follows: i Mrs. J. Feunde Dr. Amy Bowen, a summary of the | club’s achievements. Scoville, a paper on “The Mrs. James W. Orr, “The Future of | the Club.’ ! It had been announced that Mrs. | Lovell White would talk upon “The { Origin and Achievement of the Club.” but legislative work at Sacramento | caused her to remain at the scene of | battle. Mrs, White’s paper was greatly ! missed, as interesting details of the { club’s beginning are at her fingertips. | Quite the sensation of the day was | Mre. Orr's prophecy—for such it really | was—and right ‘cleverly was it told. | The many thrusts at the weird [ idiosyncrasies of the clubwomen were heartily enjoyed—by . those they didn’t hit. The paper was written after the fashion of a fortune-teller's | manner of revealing the vour home, to yourself, your club, to ur family, etc., and there are those ho insist that Mrs. Orr is assuredly | | the possessor of ‘“‘second sight,” else | | she never could have said so many | | “really, truly things.” fter the exercises were over gt the | clubrooms the members adjourned to the building site on Clay street, near Polk, and with simple ceremony—but with deep feeling—the cornerstone o their new home was laid. And thus is writ the first chapter | of the home-making of San an-. cisco’s big club. And may it be happy and prosper- ous therein, and as potent a factor in the city's development as it has been in the past. . BOARD OF BUYS LA EDUCATION | D FOR SCHOOL | | | | | | | Outbids Two Competitors and Jndge. Coffey Coufirms the Sale I to Ciry. | | Judge Coffey yesterday confirmed : | the sale of a lot at the corner of Ma- son and Washington streets to the Board of Education for the sum of $7500. The land adjoins the Wash- ington Grammar School and will be appropriated by it on the erection of | the new school under the bond issue. The lot was owned by Louise C. Kaufmann, and there were two othel‘ bids for the land. Both were less than the amount paid by the Board of Edu- cation. Robdrt G. Brotherton, who is | the administbator of the estate of| Louise C. Kaufmann, received a bid from Henry L. McKnew of $7305 and | from Josephine Cockrell of $7000. | The Board of Education imme—; diately sent a communication to the | Board of Supervisors apprising that| body of the purchase of the lot and requesting that $7500 be set aside out of the proceeds of the sale of school | bonds to pay the purchase price. Recommendation is also made that Jannth-r lot immediately to the west of the lot be purchased for the Wash- | ington School. The following divorces were grant- | ed in the courts yesterday: By Judge Troutt, Maud P. Dix from Charles W. Dix; by Judge Hebbard, W. J. Baker | from Maude Maybelle Baker, on the ground of desertion, and Joseph Sar- | nik_from Mary Sarnik, on the ground | of desertion; by Judge Murasky, Mor- ' ‘itz Abramowitz from Tony Abramo- witz, on the ground of cruelty; by Judge Seawell, Marie E.

H | The Supervisors’ Printing Commit- tee yesterday recommended that the | contract for doing the official advertis- ing be awarded to the Post Publishing’ Company at 26 cents for each half inch. 'I‘hn bid of the Journal of Com- merce at 832 cents was rejected be- cause sworn statements as to the ‘pub- | lication and circulation were not filed. ' Frank Gould, attorney for the Post, explained that the bid of 15 cents of last year was too low in view of the | fact that the cost of paper has ad- | vanced 40 per cent and the cost of la-Q bor is higher. The matter will be | taken up by the board next Monday.l ————e——— ‘Wants Property Partitioned. Fannie A. McKinnon, one of the heirs to the John J.

The other elected members of the board are Charles N. Champion, Hugh Blackmann and A. E. Foster. The directors are all San Francisco | men with the exception of Messrs.

Irritability and snappy retorts uko the place ot pleasantness, and all sun- | shine is driven out of the home, and | lives are wrecked by woman's great enemy—womb trouble.
