Fear Parties at ‘¢ the County . scat
Friday Evening.
At their home on Water. street Mr.
and Mrs. Norval Douglass gave a fine
party Friday,evening in honor of their
daughter, Mrs. W. D. Read of San
Francisco, who was on the eve of taking her departure after an extended
visit with them. Tue principal entertainment of the evening was drive
whist. There were seven tables of
players, many of whom were experts.
The best scores resulting from the contest were made by Mrs. J. Naffziger
and E. A. Tompkins, while Mrs. Cal,
made the fewest points. The prize
were neat and appropriate. Refreshments gwere served at the game’s
conclusion.
The Dirigos were elaborately entertained on the occasion of their last
regular bi-weekly assembly, the scene
ot which was the residence of Mr. and
Mrs. C. J. Nafiziger. The handsome
first prizes awarded in the whist game
went to Mrs, D. E. Morgan and F. G.
Beatty who won 34 points-and lost
18, while Mrs. W. H. Crawford and
A. R. Wadsworth, who gained 23
points and lo-t 26, fizured as the boobies. When the midnight collation
had been. served Chas. E. Mulley
submitted revised rules for playing,
providing for a change of partners at
each hand and for having one person
act as score-keeper for all. It was decided to give the scheme a trial at the
next meeting, which will be held at
Geo. C. Gaylord’s residence. Pyesident Shoecraft on behalf of the hostess
presented Mr. Mulloy with a ‘‘gold”’
watch and chain as a recugnition of
his originality in concocting the plan.
A motion to challenge the Excelsior
Club to combat wes adopted, and
Messs. Shoecraft, Gaylord and Calkims were appointed to convey the chal-_
lenge and urrange the preliminaries if
it be accepted.
A large number of the juvenile
friends of Menzo Lawrence tendered
that young gentleman a surprise party
at the home of his. mother on East
Broad street. They spent the evening
in such games and other amusements
as delight the rising generation. A
choice supper was served. z
The return of Rev. Wm. Angwin to
the pastorate of the Methodist Church
of this city to serve for the £fth year
was celebrated by one hundred and
twenty-five or more members of his
congregation who tendered the popular parson and his estimable wife
a surprise party. The visitors met in
the vestry and at eight o’clock went to
the Angwin residence where they were
received with great cordiality. At
nine o’cluck all went to the vestry
where the following two hours were
agreeably spent in listening to speechi=
es and music and eating the supper
that had been provided. Addresses of
gratification at the tact of Mr. Angwin’s
return were delivered by County Superintendent of Schools A. J. Tiffany,
Rev. Robert Lennie, John Werry and
©. C. Weisenburger. An eloquent and
feeling response was made by Mr. Angwin. The latter gentleman holds a
warm placein the hearts of the people of this city. Heis a gentleman of
the best_ social. attainments—and——is
scholarly, besides which there is a
spirit of practical christianity manifest in all his relations with his congregation andthe public.

THE W. C, T. U.
Temperance Women.
The Washington Star pays this compliment to the National W. C, T. U.:
The National Woman’s Christian
4emperance Union, which holda its
sixteenth annual convention at Chiéago; from the 8th to the 12th of November, is an organization probably
unique in history. It is composed
wholly of women. It has nothing to
do with politics, except as ull secial
reforms are in their broader sense
political. The two words ‘‘Christian”
and ‘‘Temperance’’ in its title indicate
the special lines of work within which
‘it exerts ita energies. In the ramifications of these it touches even: such
subjects as public sanitation and private hygiene, on the tbeory that right
conditions of physical life make the
best basis fur moral development.
Total abstinence from traffic in, or
consumption of, alcoholic stimulants
is a cardinal principle of the society ;
and other departments of domestic
morals receive a large share of its attention in every community where it
muintains a branch. A)though sometimes charged with too radical notions
of reform, and occasionally erring on
the side of haste in scrutinizing laws
and pushing measures of importance,
the influence of the Union is wholesome, and every good citizen can _afford to encourage its work with his
countenance, and, where desired, with
financial aid. An organization which,
even at the end of sixteen years, has
by its own efforts built up a system of
ten thousand local auxiliary branches,
spread a network of juvenile societies
over the territory from Tampa Bay to
Puget Sound, established a publishing
house with an annual issue of sixty
million pages and a newspaper organ
of sixty thousand circulation, challenges univereal respect for the business ability and force of character of
the women who have had charge of
its fortunes.

He Takes a Spin Threugh an
: Earthiy Paradive.
The Virginia City Enterprise of
Thursday says:
Thomas Cocking, of Six-mile Canyon
with wife and family, bas just returned
from a visit tohis sister, Mrs. R. B.
Williams, at Fresno City, California.
In going over thé mountains he feund
the forests on fire on both sides of the
track at points beyond Truckee.
Snowsheds had been consumed, and in
places the fire looked sougly that the
train was halted-and a brakeman sent
ahead to see whether it would be safe
to attempta passage. This was before
the Cascade: bridge was burned, and
even then the fire seemed dangerous.
Mr. Cocking looks upon Fresno as
the vineyard and paradise of the world.
In this region he found his relatives
living literally under their own. ‘‘vine
and figtree.”’ He visited many ranches, and found all a mass of vegetation,
with tropical fruit of almost every
known kind in astounding abundance.
Palatial mansions were seen in the
neighborhood of grounds on which
were waving palms, the cypress, the
umbrella tree, the oleander, gum, poplar and hundreds of others.
Every where water seeme . abundant
arid every ranchman happy and flourishing. They found Fresno City rapidly growing and already a large and
beautiful place. To'an old Comstocker the whole region seemed a_ perfect
Eden.
Mr. Cocking also visited Grass Valley and many other beautiful California towne. At Grass Valley he was
perfectly at homé, for there he met a
host of old-time friends. In many
places in California he found old Comstockers, and says he found them all
well fixed and flourishing. He nowhere found the weather too hot, but
in some places (even in Fresno) was
very ready to hunt and crawl up toa
fire early inthe morning or late in the
evening.

Nevada County Preducts in, the
Pavilion There.
A correspondent of the Bulletin in
writing to that paperhas this to say of
Nevada county’s exhibit in the Pavilion of the San Joaquin county Fair:
“Nevada county shows several tables of mountain fruit for which the
region has already wide fame. Oranges, apples, pears and grapes of attractive size and color are here displayed. J. Wichman of North San
Juan shows. eight aquash that all
grew on one vine. ‘he aggregate
weight is 505 pounds.”
The same writer. says’ of the recent
State Fair exhibit by. this and other
counties :
“At the Pavilion in Stuckton there
are many interesting features. It was
through their respective-granges, compete for special premiums amounting
to about $500, but for some reason,
chiefly because the same plan was
first carried out at Sacramento, only
three counties have entered the contest here. These'are San Joaquin, Calaveras and Nevada. Amador county,
which carried off the chief honora at
the State Fair, sent here only a few
samples. of building stone. Some of
the San Joaquin exhibitors at the State
Fair were—chagrined. atthe success of
the Amador people. They claim the
success was largely due to the mineral
display, which was a feature of the
Amador exhibit, A Calaveras man
generously says Amador won at Sacramento because its people worked for
the prize, beginning early and continuing late. Geo. Woolsey of Jackson,
among othere, began early in the sun «
mer to prepare exhibits, and many
others: did likewise. The result was
satisfactory and the earnest workers
in that foothill fruit county are very
proud of the honor they won.’

THE GOLD HUNTERS.
They Are te be Written Up in
the **Cemtury.
The Century Magazine has in preparation a series.of papers on topics relating to the Gold Hunters of Califor
nia. The article will be prepared for
the most part, as were the War Papers, by prominent participants in the
events which they describe; and they
will include accounts of early explorations, life in California before the gold
discovery, the finding of gold in 1848
at Sutter’s Fort, the journey to California by the different routes (around
the Horn, across the plains, by Nicaragua, and by Panama), life in the mining camps and in San Francisco, and
other important aspects of California
life at the time. It. is believed that
these papers will be in the nature of a
revelation to the reading public of the
present day as to many interesting aspects of the pioneer period, ita romance and adventure, its tragedy and .
pathos, and its poetry and humor. A
careful search ins Californiaand e!sewhere has already brought to light
many interesting pictures never yet
engraved. The publication of the pais farther advanced.
