J i i 1 ill ills T-ho ladIes an(1 gentlemen who live in the cities If I If y have a startling fad which should become very 1 1 II 1 1 popular, especially in the windy states. It is ( ! if: II I tnat of PlacInS niottos on the stockings, not the 111 1 garters, mind you, but the hosiery itself, and it is L, ! bound to spread, especially among tennis players, Jjj 'n and golfers, so upon your first visit to the Council Coun-cil h try Club this season, express no surprise if look-4 look-4 ' i ! Ing toward the rail of a piazza it will appear like jj a miniature bill-board with a life story written in ill jjj three words, such as "Ever Constant," "Honi," If , etc., "See you later," and other old saws used since jjl ?" that first apple bobbing. 11! This is a subject that will require deep thought if il on the part of the original folks, and one to wnich I j p we will pay a great deal of attention as the sum- j f mer progresses. , Jack Rooklidge was the first man to start the I Jlf fad here, and his motto reads, "Come Up Some I ! Time, We Need the Money." Will Hall uses the I Iji' one word, "Coo!" Frank Judge "Give Me the I 1 1 1 Sunny South," and Archie Milner has the simple j Ji 1 1 inscription, "Some Men Are Born Great." It id a i j charming idea, and is destined to spread rapidly. t ' x & & t The third annual banquet of tho Press Club ; will take place at the Commercial Club this even- gi ing. There will be no elaborate accounts in the s ( I , , morning papers, and most of the news of the event Ijf J ' will be hearsay, but it is best to go to the ban-i ban-i R if quet if you have the time. It will pay. lit! . '" j I J I I The following special to The San Francisco If I I Chronicle may bo of some Interest locally: Helolse f I Titcomb, an attractive woman with a Spanish ac- 1 I i ; I I cent, arrived here today from Europe. She said j I II I she was a native of Argentina and a singer by oc- ffl cupation, and she departed this evening for Chi- ''1 p ' 1 cago, accompanied by a distinguished-looking, ij, I ! j j ' middle-aged man, whoie white beard parts in the 9h I I I , , i middle. While here, Signorina Titcomb was ex- " fe I l tensively interviewed by reporters, and she told I j i I I them she was a member of the merry bunch of fl I 1 1 ! 1 1 ' theatrical women Grand Duke Boris took with him i I I j Ml on his glorious Manchurian campaign. ii nil; Signorina Titcomb gave Interesting details of the champagne bottles left in the wake of the Boris train. One paper here has been unkind enough to intimate that Signorina Titcomb has no right to a Spanish accent. She is the divorced wife of Dr. Titcomb, a San Francisco dentist. She also was formerly a member of various musical comedy companies in this city, but drifted to Buenos Ayres and later to the music halls of Europe. ?
