A Birthday Party
Mrs. Katie WIGHT, whose pleasant home in on F street, near the Boulevard, Colma, gave a very fine party on the evening of St. Patricks Day, March 17, 1914, for the anniversary of her eldest daughter, Irene, she being sixteen years old.
There were about forty guests present and each joined in the spirit of the occasion. The surroundings were profusely decorated with Shamrock and evergreens, in which much taste had been displayed.
It was a surprise to see the young people of Colma – no one before realized there were so many nice young girls and boys. Each joined heartily in the fames and dances, following fine piano music and Mrs. C.P. LAMBERT’s concertina which was a band in itself.
It was certainly an occasion long to be remembered and many were the sincere wishes extended to Miss Irene, who is one of Colma’s most interesting young ladies.

DISASTROUS FIRE AWAKENS DALY CITY
Two Business Building Destroyed – Another Badly Damaged – Loss About $14,000
A few minutes after three o’clock Monday morning a brisk fire was discovered in the HEIME market on Mission street, between Knowles and Los Angeles avenues, and it gained headway so rapidly that by the time the volunteer fire company arrived the building was a mass of flames and doomed, so that efforts were exerted to save adjoining property on each side.
The water supply was fairly good but it was discovered that the Theta avenue hydrant would not work and that delayed the fire fighters considerably, so that the fire spread in both directions, consuming in its path the small real-estate office and setting fire to the large PESCARO building while to the north the new GENOCHINO building was also in flames, notwithstanding the heroic efforts that were exerted to keep the fire from spreading in that direction.
The origin of the fire is unknown except that it started in the building that is owned by Emelio SCRAMAGLIA and occupied by Louis HEIM.
The losses were as follows:
E. PESCARO, damage to building about $2,5000; stock about $3,5000. Fully insured.
Dr. F. BUSH, dentist in Pescaro building, total loss of about $1,000. Insurance $500.
Dr. G.L. MARION, physician in Pescaro building, loss about $1,000, no insurance.
Emalio SCRAMAGLIA, building $1,500 Louis HEIM, market fixtures $1,200, insured for $800.
Tony GENOCHINO, the new building on the corner of Los Angeles avenue and Mision, that was to be occupied by J. PANNELLI with a grocery stock as soon as complete, loss about $3,000.
KASSER, real estate office, loss about $150.

PACIFIC COAST SIDE
What Our Neighbors Along the Pacific's Shore Have Been Doing, Are Doing and Will Do
E.K. HUTCHINSON and wife of Oakland spent the week-end with Mrs. HUTCHINSON’s sister, Mrs. H. AMSELER at Farallone City.
Word has just been received by friends residing on the Coast Side of the death of Mrs. Albina B. BOFFA at her home in Petaluma.
Mrs. J.E. MEYERS of Brighton Beach was taken to San Francisco Monday where she had a very serious operation performed. Mr. MEYERS accompanied his wife to the city.
Dick DANERI is on the waterwagon again. At which the people of Half Moon Bay rejoiceth, for the streets of the town needed sprinkling, the dry weather having caused musch annoyance in migrating much dust. Dick is a good shot at deer, but when it comes to throwing rocks he is no better at it than a lefthanded cross-eyed woman. Judge KERRICK can verify this.
Death has again invaded the LUIZ household. Two weeks ago the busband and father answered the summons to pass beyond, and yesterday morning the wife and mother, Mary F. LUIZ, made the same sad journey. She was aged 55 and leaves several relatives and many friends in the community to mourn her loss.
L.H. PFISTER, an inspector of the State Dairy Bureau, swore to a warrant for the arrest of M. ALBRECT, charging him with maintaining an unsanitary dairy. ALBRECHT appeared before Justice PITCHER Friday for trial and was fined $10, with the admonition that if he did not put his dairy in proper condition within thirty days the full penalty of the law would be administered to him. He promised to be good.
