of tbe eraaon.

Thz Stockton baa contributed largely to tbe eutertainment of vial ton during tbe season, Mr. Horace M. Cake, tbe proprietor, having provided facilities tor tbe purpose at great expense, and It Is very fitting that appreciation for thee* effort* should be shown in the form of a testimonial benefit to Mr. Cake, wblcb la to occur next Saturday evening as announced in our advertising eolumns. That It will prove to be another of the series of grand and sacocasful affaln which have occurred at tbe Stockton this season we have no doubt. Extensive preparation* are being made by tbe committee In charge to provide many entertaining features, and the memory of last sueoesaful testimonial to Mr. Cake will attract an even larger company.
