Although the reopening of the schools is causing the departure of a number of families with children, yet the Hotel Rafael and cottages remain as full as ever, new arrivals continuing every day. The fall months of San Rafael are the most delightful of the entire season, and 8 long round of entertainments will shortly be announced. The ball of the season is announced at the Hotel Rafael for September 9th.
There is no doubt but that the hotel will be filled to repletion at that time. The greatest Interest centers on the ladies' singles in the tennis thatch. President Newhail will be on hand to represent the national committee. Doubles in tennis are considered far more enteresting by the majority of the spectators than the singles.

There is no better time or place in California than at the Hotel Raisel for a tennis tournament, Mrs. M. J. O'Connor and her daughters returned last week, and Monday the D. B.
Davidsons return from their outing in the interior. The A. J. Bowies and Friedlanders will remain until the last part of the autumn. Mr.

Since the days when San Rafael first started the Episcopal and Presbyterian churches have: held fairs, which yield a goodly proportion of the expenses of the year.

In the evening there was a concert given, and the grounds were beautifully lit up by Japanese and railroad lanterns. The suecess of the entertainment is greatly due to the untiring efforts of the ladies of the congregation of St. Paul's- Church, foremost of whom are Mrs. E. L.
Griffith, Mrs. George M. Pinckard, Mrs. William H. Berry, Miss Stay, Mrs.
Louis B. Parrott, Mrs. John F. Bigelow, the Misses Ames and many others. Among the prominent Rafaelites at the party were noticed Mrs.
