20 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, JUNE 16, 1895. Tue Pray anp THE PLAVERS. Rudyard Kipling is writing a play. Morosco's scenic effects this week are 1aid in London. Colima survivors are still appearing at the Circus Royal. “The Prude’s Progress” is the title of Jerome K. Jerome’s new play. Many a hero would never play his part un- less he was paid for it. A Boston theater gives its patrons a free ride to and from the playhouse. The Calitornia Theater reopens on the 24th inst. with “The Old Homestead.” Nordau asks, “Has the world gone mad?” No, but Dr. Nordau has made it mad. The Earl of Rosslyn has signed a contract with Charles Wyndham and will attempt to | | act. Georgia Cayvan is going Starring mext sea- son. She has a manager, but won't tell his name. Magistrate—What induced you to throw a dynamite bomb into the theater? ‘Anarchist—My desire to elevate the stage. Daniel Frohman will personally direct the coming engagement of the Lyceum Theater Company at the Baldwin. He will arrive here early next month. De Wolf Hopper will next season make his first trip to San Francisco and during his Paci- fic Coast tour he will present ‘‘Wang” as well as “Dr. Syntax.” Wilson Barrett has deciaed to return to this country next season. The success of the “Sign | of the Cro: ad a great deal to do with his | change of min Wailter Hale, an old-time favorite in this | City, will be seen with the Lyceum Theater | Company when that orgenization appears at the Baldwin Theater next month. “Too Much Johnson” has just closed its sue- | ful run of seven months in New York. ette and the comedy are coming to the Baldwin eiter the Lyceum Company. An American actress, interviewed on her re- turn from Paris, expresses the opinion that there are no new French plays that would not have to be “washed” for American use. The stock companies at the Tivoli, Mo- | rosco’s and the Columbia Theater will con- | tinue to furnish most of the dramatic en- | City it will have, to many people, the charm of novelty. . Laura Millard will appear for the first time in the role of La Perichole, the stroll- ing singer. Louise Royce will play Piquillo, a part which she has already sung successfully. W. H. West, a charac- ter comedian and singer, who_created the role of Leo in the original Tivoli produc- | tion of “‘She,” will make his reappearance as Don Pedro, the Governor of Lima. John J. Raffael will be the Viceroy and Ferris Hartman theold prisoner, the Marquis de Santarel. The chorus has been enlarged, and the original orchestration, which was procured from the Opera Comique in Paris, where the opera was first presented, will be used. AT THE ORPHEUM. Two Californians Who Withstand Strong Electric Shocks. The Salambos, brother and sister, who puzzled Orpheum audiences last week with their fire and electric acts, are natives of San Luis Obispo, but have spent most of their lives in Australia and Europe, where they have interested physicians by their endurance in resisting electric shocks that would prostrate any ordinary man or woman. Just before going on the stage the brother charges himself with a quantity of negative electricity by a process which he keeps secret. His sister 1s charged with the positive current, and when they bring their fingers together, without touching, a k is produced. The Salambos will in- troduce new features into their electrical act this wee Amann w 1 add the chief executive offi- cer of the State to his impersonations to- MOTTOW. Jules Levy, the veteran cornet- s matinee, when, by request, he will “Then You’ll Remember Me.” The brothers Martinetti will be the prin- cipal new attraction this week. They are acrobats of considerable originality, who perform remarkable somersaults. CIRCUS ROYAL. Survivors From the Colima Are Still Depiot- ing Their Rescue. The Colima rescue scene has proved so ccessful at the Circus Royal and Water al that it has been decided to con- t for another week. tinue The picture of the storm is made real- s his farewell performance at to- | now recognized by many of the leading architects of the country. As there are not less than 50,000 eleva- tors in operation in the United States, the commercial importance of this addition to the electrical field will be seen. Central stations are already laying themselves out for electric elevator business, and one sta- tion in New York is now running some 250 electric elevators of a total of 3000 horse- power.. Although this system is adapted or heavy work, especially in tall build- ings, and is coming into general use on account of its saving in space, ease of handling and high efficiency for business purposes, one of the most important of its utilizations will be for domestic needs. In five years’ time a well-appointed house will as naturally have an electric elevator as a bathroom. To many delicate and elderly persons the mounting of stepsisa grievous burden, if not a serious source of injury, and before long stairs will be looked upon as & barbarism. It is now as easy and cheap to have an electric elevator in a }frivute house as in a large office building. | he cost of operating itin, say a five-story | house, making fifty or sixty trips every | day, will not exceed $3 or $4 per month. It |is made to work automatically, so that | there is not the slightest danger. An in- | valid or a child can operate it; it stops only | at each floor and starts only when the ele- | vator door is closed. For starting the old | lever is discarded, all that is necessary is to press a buttor POSSIBILITS 1y TELEGRAPHING WITH- { our Wires.—The continued success which has attended experiments in sending tele- | graphic messages through space promises to lead to remarkable developments. An English electrician says it is difficult to forecast the future of this new telegraphy, So far, signaling has been carried on by this means in one direction only, but there is no reason why messages should not be duplicated, and even quadrupli- cated. Further details are now to hand of the establishment of communication between the island of Mull and the main- land, near Oban,a few weeks ago, when the connecting cable broke down. It will be remembered that an insulated wire was laid along the shore of the island, |and messages through it were sent to the mainland across two miles of in- | tervening space.® The official report states: “An ordinary Morse circuit could not have given better results. The chief difficulty was the incessant scream- ing of the wild fowl.” W. H. Preece, in commenting on the achi i | very different explanation of this supposed ‘“screaming of the sea fowl.” He says that strange, weird and mysterious sounds are frequently heard on long | lines of telegraph in the calm stillness of the night, but whether they are due to ter- restrial or to cosmic causes remains to be discovered. The sun’s photosphere when disturbed by spots may be subject to vio- lent electrical storms, and the vast jets of incandescent hydrogen that flame up with TivOL tertainment at the San Francisco theaters this week. On the 24th inst. the California Theater | is to reopen with “The Old Homestead” | and the Baldwin soon follows suit with the New York Lyceum Company, which will appear under the personal direction of Daniel Frohman. Judging from present indications the coming season will give Jocal theater-goers more famous artists and | new plays than was the case during the | past dramatic year. With regard to the | artists at least this is certainly a consum- | mation to be wished for, as it is some- what surprising that of the new s and actresses who - played in East last season — new that is to America—not one of those who had just gone home to Europe, with their pockets | full of dollars, has come west of Chica Ysavye certainly charmed California audi- ences, but he isnot adramatic artist, in the theatrical sense of the word. The fact that San Francisco has not been hearing many of the newest plays, is not, erhaps, a great loss. Critics and the pub- ic alike, in the Eastand Europe, are begin- | ning to weary of the eternal problem play, which never succeeds in solving a single social problem, and is only written to pan- der to a certain fin de siecle craze for sensa- tionalism. Works like “The Notorious Mrs. Ebbsmith,” may be cleverly con- structed to make a bid for popular favor, but even the people who enjoy them most, | do not pretend that such plays have merit enough to live. MOROSCO'S OPERA-HOUSE, Walter Sanford to Appear in an English Melodrama. Morosco’s production to-morrow ni;.vht‘, consists of a stirring melodrama, “The | Power of Gold.” It is a humorous and emotional rather than a lurid melodrama, and is set in a framework of realistic stage pictures. The background of the story consists of the constant struggle for bread on the part of the poor, and of the greed for gold among the prosperous and wealthy. The scenes are laid in and near London, and there are a number of realistic stage pictures of various parts of the big city, in- cluding a view of the exterior of the foundling asylum, and a scene on the banks of the Thames, where the lights of London are seen in the distance. 5 In “The Power of Gold’’ Edmond Hayes plays the part of a_cosmopolitan adven- turer, Maud Edna Hall appears undera number of aliases, and Walter Sanford assumes the role of an English thief. The cast is as follows: Hadgi Zambrs, Edmond Haves; Paul Jud- son, a mechanical engineer. George L. Montser- rat! Sammy Smudge. & butcher's boy, ’as ham- bitlous 'opes of being a Hem Dee. Charles W. Swain; Dr. Stephen Saunders, a man of delicate feelings, who believes in mild punishment, Frank Hatch ; Tom Burley, another advocate of the mild punishment theory, J. Harry Benr, mo; Peter Maguire, who knows his duty as w as his prayers, W. L. Gleason; Cabby, Sam Cole; Meg Judson, Paul’s patient, loving wife. with & ast clouded in mystery, Mina Gleason; Lady randon, Maud Edna Hall; Norah Donnelly, the leader of fashion in Lady Brandon’s ser- vants’ hall, Julia Blanc; Sister Marie, kind but resolute, Bessie Savannah: and Mark Harley, with an unserved sentence out in Africa, Wal- ter Sanford. TIVOLIZOPERA-HOUSE. W. H. West to Reappear in “La Perichole” To-Morrow Night, Offenbach’s opera “‘La Perichole” will be produced at the Tivoli Opera-house to- morrow night. The musical setting to the pretty story of the Peruvian street-singer, who loved her poor Piquillo in spite of all the Viceroy’s blandishments, has always been considered one of Offenbach’s hap- | Lillian istic by putting the house into complete darkness, while the water in the arena is heard dashing and splashing to the accom- paniment of the low rumbling of thunder. Momentary flashes of light reveal the sea- men strugzling in the water grasping bits of wreckage. When the calcium lights are turned on the seamen are seen inan ap- parently exhausted condition attempting to gain a portion of the deck, which has floated into view. There is a good deal of hope and despair expressed in pantomime before the small boat from the San Juan appear and rescues the men. The suryivors from the Colima who ap- pear in this scene have fallen cleverly into a realistic way of acting their parts. The Columbia Theater, The comedy, “Nancy & Co.,” will be produced at the Columbia Theater this week, beginning to-morrow evening. Alcazar Theater, To-night will be the last night of the row and all next week the great comedy, “A Night Off,” will be presented. Lillian Russell Alarmed, For a few hours last Thursday night Russell: was pretty badly fright- ened. Her voice gave out during the finale of the first act of “The Tzigane”— ‘“dried up,” as the singers say. The ex- pression which came upon her face when this event occurred was not observed by the general public, but those of Miss at the moment could read it easily enough. It said, as plainly as if the words had spoken: “My voice is gone. Will it ever come back?’ It wasa look of intensest agony. As soon as the curtain came down M Russell rushed to the dressing-room, ere she wept bitterly for a long time, her understudy finishing the performance. Happily, there turns out occasion for any alarm. The voice of this beautiful woman needs a period of rest, that isall. It has been overworked for & very long time, and when Miss Russell recently caught a_severe cold, instead of endeavormg to lighten her labors, she about doubled them, by rehearsing her new opera all day long and singing the music of “La Perichole” at night. The task would have been severe enough, in all conscience, had_she been in the best of condition. Ill as Miss Russell was, it ex- ceeded her endurance. The physicians say there is no permanent impairment, but that she must keep quiet for a reason. able period. 7 VATOR FOR BUSINESS AxD DoMEsTIC UsE.—There has been fierce fighting during the last twelve months he- tween the hydraulic and the electric ele- vator systems. It is hardly surprising that the older system, which has done good service, and is still efficient for buildings of moderate height, under certain conditions, has had to give way to the more flexible electric system, which is equal to the re- quirements of the tallest sky-scraper ever built. The question of rivalry has been virtually settied by the adoption of the electric elevator in large, new, representa- tive buildings in Chicago, Minneapolis and piest efforts, and as it is many years since this melodious opera was produced in this an ncisco, — after open competition with the hydraulic, and its mp:nl:}ity is laughing comedy, “Humbug.” To-mor- | Russell’s friends who were watching her | to be no| | terrible velocity may excite electrical oscil- lations through ethereal space of such a | frequency as to influence our terrestrial | circuits. It may thus become possible for us to hear on earth the electric storms of | the sun. Ax Erectric INcuBaTorR.—The idea of hatching eggs by electricity may appear somewhat far-fetched, but electric incu- bation is not only being carried on in Ger- many, but is growinginto a large industry. | A Strasburg electrician, who has been ex- perimenting for three years, proves that | with the electric incubator 90 chickens can | ordinarily be counted on out of every 100 eggs incubated. His apparatus is made for 50, 100 and 200 (~gfis, and not only obvi- ates many of the difficulties connected with the ordinary form of incubator, but makes the process of hatching surer and quicker than it has ever been. The | manipulation of the apparatus is | brought down to a very simple phase, the main feature being the maintenance of a carefully regulated and uninterrupted supply of current. An automatic attach- | ment keeps the temperature within a tenth of a degree of the normal heat of in- cubation. The degree of saturation of the | air is similarly maintained. The guantity of current required is very small. After the chickens are hatched they are turned | into an ‘‘electric mother,” the upper part of which is devoted to the freshly hatched | birds only,while the lower part is arranged | so that the chicks can run around on the ground and at the same time find heat and protection when they desire it. The elec- tric incubator has been found of great ser- | vice for winter work. FiNisHING CLoTH AND PAPER BY FErrc- | TRICITY.—An electrical journal gives a new method of finishing cloth and paper by electricity. In the finishing of certain kinds of woven fabrics and obtaining moire and figured effects it has been the practice | to use hydraulic presses and heated plates. | The plates are heated in furnaces and | subjected, after the fabrics or paper have been placed between them, to hydraulic | pressure. The difficulty with this" system | 1s that during the operation the plates cool and the action is not regular. The adoption of a form of electric heating gives exactly the required regularity and | constancy of temperature and makes the | process perfect. The plates are made hol- low, and the heating wire is wound within it in the shape of a spiral, impedded in sufficient resistance to produce the neces- sary heating effect. ~A flexible cable asses from each plate to a switchboard, where electrical connection is made. As the current is turned on in any of the cables the plate to which it is attached is raised to the required heat, which is main- tained undeviatingly until the process of finishing is completed. The invention comes from Germany, but it is such a man- ifest and radical improvement on old methods that it is certain to be applied largely by American manufacturers of woven fabrics and paper. A PowEr Loox Run BY ELECTRIC MOTOR. — The running of textile machines by elec- tricity is gradually but certainly supersed- ing the old costly and troublesome shaft- ing, pulleys, etc. A German firm have put upon the market a power loom actuated entirel rl:f electricity. The loom is of the “Bradiord” form, which is much used in Europe for light woolen and cotton weaves, and has a 6-drop box motion on one side. The medium size has a breadth of reed of 6-4, and makes in the neighborhood of 145 picks per minute, using something like one-third of a horsepower. The electrical connections are so made that the stoppin; and starting of the loom are regulate automatically, and should the filling break or the spool become empty, the loom ceases work in the usual manner. There is by this arrangement a great saving of labor, and the weaver can superintend a large number of looms. WONDERS IN HOME TRADE The Largest Borax Refinery in the World and Its Products. A THIRTY-FIVE-TON CABLE. Interesting News from the Big Coast Centers of Pro- duction. Alameda contains the largest borax re- finery in the world. There are, no doubt, very many people in the State unaware of the fact that there are but two borax refineries worthy the name in the United States. The other one is located in New York City, and isa part of a general chemical works. There is con- sumed in the United States about 140,000 tons of borax a year. The Alameda works supplies half of this, and not an inconsiderable amount of the remainder is imported from England, not- withstanding a duty of 2 cents a pound. The Pacific Coast contains all the borax deposits yer discovered in the United States. Nevada for years furnished the crude supply, but just now it is being drawn from Southern Californi: The mines are about ten miles from Calico, and the crude borax is hauled out by twenty- mule teams, a picture of one of which is to be found on every package of refined borax. The use of horax has greatly increased of late years. Not very long ago it was used only as a drug. Now 1t is used in the manufacture of soaps for toilet purposes, as a disinfectant and curative, and very largely for preserving meats, in the latter supplanting saltpeter, and to some extent taking the place of salt. Itsprice for years forbade its use in large quantities in com- mon manufactures, but owing to improved methods of refining the price has greatly declined. F. M. Smith is the owner of the Alameda works (the Pacific Coast Borax Company), and is also owner of or controls all the other accessible deposits on the Pacific Coast. He has greatly enlarged the in- dustry and stimulated the market for the prodict. The company has recently de- vised a new compound called “Boraxaid,” which itis now manufacturing extensively. It is of the same nature as Gold Dust Washing Powder and other compounds. The works gives employment to a large number of men, and is one of the perma- nent and importantindustries of the State. The Pacific works of the Washburn & Moen Manufacturing Company has just delivered to the upper Howard-street cable- road a 35-ton cable. They report their works, formerly the California Wire Works, as running up to full capacity. They have large orders from South America, and re- port a great improvement in general trade. They have advices from the East of an ad- vance of $1 50 per ton on material for the manufacture of fine wire, caused by the general improvement in trade throughout the United States. M. O'Brien, the San Francisco mill- builder, is building a fifty-barrel flourmill at Gardnerville, Nev., and a_fifty-barrel mill at Durbam, Cal.; also a 25-ton barley and feed plant for Miller & Butler of Oak- land, and one of the same size for Irvin Bros. of Orange, and a cornmeal plant for Moore & Sons of Santa Ana, pesides filling orders for his perfection barley-rolls for the following first-class mills of this City: Capital Mills, Delmonte Mills, Yosemite Mi‘l"]s, H. R. Robbins, one for the Capital Mills of Los Angeles, and for Groat & Wil- ams of Portland, Or. He is also putting in grain-cleaners and_elevators for Eppin ger & Co.—a 600-ton separator and a 180-ton smutter—the two largest grain-cleaners in the State; also grain-cleaners and eleva- tors for the Farmers’ Union and Ware- house Company of Stockton, and a barley- mill for a Riverside company. The National Base Ore Reduction Com- pany’s works near Shell Mound is about completed. The big mill for grinding and amalgamating the ore after 1t has passed through the furnace will be in place in a few days, and then the plant will be started up full blast. Several carloads of ore are now on the way for treatment by this com- pany, which is done by the quick-roasting process, and it anticipates being able to operate its plant constantly up toits full capacity. Fhe “Pacific Coast Co-operative Cigar Company reports a gratifying increase in trade. The inquiry for home made i is more constant than ever be- fore, and seems to have been greatly stimu- lated by the recent agitation in favor of home made goods. £ Murry Bros.” Machine Works is manu- facturing one of their patent friction drums for the Albion Lumber Company of Men- docino County, which with a single wire rope is capable of raising an entire car of lumber at a single liit. They are also con- structing one for Palmer & Rey of this City, to be used for mining purposes. The Oriential Gas Engine Company has just closed a contract for two 20-horse- power engines for the Piper, Aden, Goodall Company, the schooner Piute to operate | twin screws. They also have orders for several smaller launch engines, as well as three stationary engines for irrigating pur- poses. . The Pelton Waterwheel Company has recently furnished the Preston School of Industry at Jone with a plant of 400- horsepower capacity, consisting of five wheels with accompanying transmission machinery, this_being for the purpose of supplying the institution with hghtvand owWer. ’g‘he plant was designed by W. R. Eckart, consulting engineer of the State, and is one of the most complete installa- tions of the kind in the country, reflecting great credit on all concerned. This com- pany has also recently furnished a 600- J:orsepower plant for the Petropolis Electric Light Power Company in Brazil. The Perkins Pump and Engine Company has just closed a contract with the town of Newman, Cal.,, for two engines and a pumping plant for water works. This company also shipped several engines to other interior points during the past week and one to the rock quarry in the Potrero District, this City. A steam-power elevator of modern de- sign has just been completed by the Cali- fornia Machine Works for an Oakland canning company. 5 The Union Proto-engraving Company re- ports May as the banner month since the revival of trade began. They have large orders for the new departure in half-tone work in colors, the invention of which process and 1ts practical application for ordinary printing is a success with them. It cheapens very materially the heretofore more expensiye and limited use of litho for many purposes. The Amerjcan Condensed Milk Com- pany, the only condensed milk company west of the fiocky Mountains, reports a gratifying- increase in the use of the product of its factory, and believes that the movement 1n the Interest of home indus- try will yet work wonders in building up the State. - The Pacific Coast Boiler Works are build- ing four large salt-dryers for the new salt works of the Carmen Island Salt Com- any. The Golden Gate Woolen Manufacturing Company has finished the sample of cloth for the police uniforms, and itis now at their salesroom on Market street, ready for ingpection. One of the largest im- porters of foreign cloths in this City, after a careful examination of it, unhesitatingly pronounced it the finest piece of beaver ever placed on exhibition in the United States. This statement is doubly gratify- ing to the manufacturers, as it comes from an expert, and one who, being engaged in the foreign goods trade, would not natur- ally be quick to recognize the merits of a home-made article. Another telephone company has been organized in Qakland to construct and maintain telephone lines in Alameda County. These independent companies are making matters lively for the Bell Company and are forcing prices to a nor- mal level. According to J. D. Culp of Santa Clara the tobacco industry of California will soon boom. He claims that California is bound to become one of the best tobacco- roducing States in the Union. Re("enk]y Ee brought the matter to the attention of the committee of the Manufacturers’ and Producers’ Association. Mr. Culp says he is already making big shipments of leaf tobacco to Eastern manufacturers. Some time ago an English syndicate offered him $300,000 for his plantand method of cur- ing. A contract for 6,000,000 feet of hemlock, to be used in the manufacture of paper, has been let to parties on the Lower Co- lumbia. It is claimed that hemlock makes a superior quality of pulp owing to the whiteness of the fiber and freedom from pitch. Hemlock, hitherto considered worthless on this coast for almost any pur- pose, will now take rank with cottonwood or spruce as a pulp material. The Girard Water-Wheel Company of this City has manufactured and is now shipping to the Ontario (Cal.) Electric Company two 100-horse power water- wheels to be operated at a speed of 360 rev- olutions per minute under an effective head of 160 feet. One of the wheels is to drive a 65 K. W. G. E. Multipolar R. R. dynamo, and the other a 60 K. W. alter- nator for electric lighting. o The pneumatic gun battery in the Pre- sidio is about completed. To enable the contractors to secure an adequate water supply the War Department has extended the time to November 27, 18 A The Detroit Copper Company at Morenci has engineers in the field surveying a rail- road line from that point to Solomonville, where it will make connection with the Gila Valley, Globe and Northern. English buyers are bidding for all the ’95 salmon they can secure, and an exten- sive dealer states that 100,000 cases of Co- lumbia River salmon will find a market in that country this season as compared with about 30,000 cases last year.
