For over a year some of her relatives living in this city have been of the belief that her ladyship was not of sound mind, but no oc ion has arisen that would give them a valid reason for having her examined regarding her mental condition. This afternoon Lady Yarde-Buller went to Jackson's drug store in West Oakland and asked the clerk to order her carriage to be sent for her. She talked very inco- herently and behaved in such an excit- able manner that the proprietor of the store concluded she was insane.

The great popularity of the Orpheum with the theater-going public of San Francisco has led the management to lay out plans for the remod- eling and enlarging of the present building, which will make it at once one of the most commodious and best-equipped buildings in the country. Gustav Walter returned Friday evening from a long tour of investigation and inspection and the result was that he at once set an architect at work drawing plans for remodeling the structure. The property adjoining the theater on the east, which was known as “Three Fingered Jack's Place,” comprising forty feet, will be added, giving the building a frontage of 167% feet on O'Farrell street. The annex will also be completely remodeled. The bar will be run the full length of 125 feet against the west wall, and a handsome arched doorway will lead into the theater proper. Probably the best feature of the whole arrangement will be the new stage. Instead of being directly opposite the O'Farrell street entrance it will be placed in the southeast corner, after the fashion of Ronacher's famous establishment in Vienna. This will leave every seat in the build- ing, even to the farthest corner, in a direct line with the stage, and the view will be equally good from all parts of the house. This will also give greater facilities for handling scenery, which is now the chief drawback of the house. The present entrance will be used only as an exit, or in case of fire, and a large and handsome entrance will be constructed at the west end of the building on O'Farrell street. This will be directly opposite the stage. The new stage will be triangular in shape, and can readily be made smaller or larger, according to the scenery used, without interfering with the view in the smallest degree. The building will also be ralsed and two new galleries put in, which will give the house a seating capacity of 6000. The house will be completely refurnished with the most comfortable chairs obtainable, and will be fin- ished off in a style of simple and harmonious beauty. The Orpheum circuit now includes San Francisco, Sacramento, Kansas City, Los Angeles and St. Louis, and a new house will be opened in Omaha early in the fall. Negotiations are also being made for houses in Chicago and New York. With this enlarged circuit the management will be able to put on a better class of productions than have ever been seen on this ast. % = The work of remodeling will be begun at once, and the theater will be reopened at about the same time as the new house in Omaha. It is not expected that it will be necessary to close the house over two, weeks.

To-mor- row morning she will be examined by doctors who will decide whether her in- sanity be due to legitimate weakening of the brain or to other causes. Some time ago Lieutenant Blair, the elder of Mrs. Buller's two sons, returned to his regiment in England, and the younger one remained with his mother. E. H. Wakeman, Lady Yarde-Buller's attorney, at whose home she has been residing for the past six months, and her son Arthur were at the hospital to-night. Mr. Wakeman was terribly put out be- cause his client was charged with insan- |ity. “Why, she is no more insane than you are,” he said. “We were out late iast night, and she drank pretty heavily. To-day she got out and was boisterous. The police dia not know her, and when she asked them to call for her carriage they thought, of course, she was in- sane. Why didn’t they charge her with drunkenness and lock her up until her son or myself could be noti- fied. Then we could have taken her home in a carriage. Now she must be examined before she can leave this place, She will surprise the examiners in the morning, for she will be all right then. It is a wonder Oakland police don’t know a drunk when they see one.” ————————— Elections Come in the Spring. OAKLAND, April 11.—The annual elec- tion for town officials was held in Em- eryville, Haywards, Pleasanton and San Leéandro. The polls opened at sunrise and closed at 5 o’'clock. While considerable interest was manifest in most of the places, there was no party strife, every candidate being placed in the field by pe- | titfon. Emeryville was qulet, there being little | interest taken in the result. The vote stood: 1lam Fleldwick, 23 le, 232, Mrs. Smith, 8. Mr. Plerce, 33. Treasure; James Billis, 62.

J. A. Fenton then offered a set of reso- | lutions, calling for the election of a new general committee, which were adopted almost immediately after their reaglng by Secretary McGovern. | In substance the resolutions called for a primary election to be held on Monday April 25, and calling for the election o 450 members, twenty-five from each As- sembly district; also that the enrollment of Democratic_voters should be held on April 14, 15 and 16, between the hours of 7 and 10 a. m. It also called for the or- | ganization of the various district clubs on April 20, and the election hy roll-call of a permanent chairman and secretary. The resolution then told how the election should be conducted. At the conclusion of the reading a com- munication outlining the history of the two factions was read and was listened | to with interest. The legality of the two partie§ was touched on in an able man- | ner, which led every one to believe that the paper was prepared by a lawyer. It | waslaid on the table. A recess was then taken to allow the | representatives of each district an oppor- | tunity to determine where the places for enroliment in their several districts should be heid.

TRIP T0 THE TENDERLOIN Hoyt's “Stranger” Is the Thirstiest Play Ever ‘Written. The Strange Adventures of Mr. Pascoe at the Alcazar. Another Morosco Melodrama— Con- tinuances at the Other Play- houses. This time our genial friend, Charles Hoyt, has forsaken the small suburban settlement with its modest delights and dissipations and has hied him to New | York, and written a farce about the great metropolitan tenderloin. And— sad to tell—he has written not in satire, but in glorification. Hoyt, our | one hope, our comic antidote for a nation’s sins, has evolved a piece with the largest capacity for cocktails, wine and “wow!"” that is yet | on record. I have seen “Ten Nights in | | a Barroom,” “Drink,” New York Casino “reviews” and many plays that could | hold their own in the consumption of a bond election to purchase the Adams Point property, but no date is set. —_————— Alameda News Notes.

EDWARDS DAVIS MAKES ANSWER His Scathing Arraignment of Those Who Belittle Him. OAKLAND, April 11.—The following self-explanatory letter was received to- day from Rev. Edwards Davis regarding the Central Christian Church affair: *ACIFIC GROVE, Cal., April 11, 1898. strong fluids—but this piece, “A Stran- | ger in New York,” is the limit. It is a dramatic tank. It drinks from the rise of the first curtain until the drop of the last; it swims, splashes, soaks in it, until your brain grows dizzy and your chair reels. I prefer Mr. Hoyt in a more temperate mood, when he shouts less and says more. The fun of this piece depends wholly on its rat- tle and glitter and thirst; there is lit- tle observation in it and none of the good natured satire that is usually the best part of a Hoyt play—in fact, the author seems frankly enamored of the tenderloin, and for three acts he paints it an inflammatory red. Such plot as comes to the surface Is this: The “stranger,” after picking up a letter of introduction, delivering it to the person addressed, and being wel- comed with all sorts of brotherly love and libation is led off to the French ball, the host under the impression that he is entertaining the man in whose be- half the letter was written. The man who has lost the letter becomes the victim of a practical joke of his own which sends him to a pesthouse. He is compelled to assume a spurious name, while the “stranger” enjoys the wine, the glory and the girls. a bit of side plot in the victim's wife, who employs a detective to discover incidental and very trivial The action and interest are centered in the phenomenal thirsts and capaci- ions. The ball scene, or rather a room in the Madison Square Garden on the | between drinks. Joseph Coyne, a young extravagantly mobile countenance and considerable magnetism, plays the “stranger,” with finished tenderloin as- surance, and sings several songs with entertaining humor. Charles Dungan does all that any one could do for the “host.” This is not the original New York | cast, but it includes Anna Boyd, Ca- | | mille Cleveland, Minnie Bridges, Harry | Rogers, Sam Marion and John Dudley, | who certainly do not make the play out | to be any less than it really is. In| | fact both Mr. Hoyt and the company | do the tenderloin to its very rarest. ASHTON STEVENS. Alcazar. When Eddie Foy essayed to portray the | “Strange Adventures of Miss Brown” in | | the play of that name no one accused him | of being a good female impersonator. nor will any one accuse Willlam H. Pascoe, who plays the part in the present Alcazar production, of appearing anything but male. Mr. Pascoe’s masculinity is more | positive than his humor, but the good | work of Mrs. Bates, Wallace Shaw and | Gertrude Foster does a lot to make the performance a go. Morosco’s. The patrons of Morosco’'s were enter- tained last night by an elaborate melo- drama, *“The Pavements of Paris,” in which the regular company did its usual reliable work and La Petite Lund intro- duced several little special es, besides appearing advantageously in the part of Marie.
