But these facts, interesting as they may be, are, after all, but side issues. Grievance arises -from the ecircum- stance that Schwerin does not intend to permit the public to know how the ships chartered from the Pacific Mail for carrying soldiers to-Manilla are be- ing fitted up. When the City of Peking was being prepared the truth concern- ing it leaked out and naturally excited indignation, for the bunks put in were | wholly without regard for the health or comfort of the boys who were to oc- cupy them.

It will be remembered that the Australia, of the first expedition, was provided with every appliance for convenience, room, and. sanitary ad- vantage. Anybody who wished to see the progress of the work had the priv- ilege of viewing-it. At every stage the work was satisfactory. On the Peking | it was different. The public was barred, | and the work was sofdr from perfect as | to excite general protest. Therefore when | Schwerin again attempts to be ex- clusive, a suspicion arises that he is up to his old ‘tricks. Incidentally there is extant a biog- raphy of Schwerin, showing his con- nection with thenavy.andhisdisconnec- | tion with the same, as well as sundry | characteristics such as * beseem the czar of the dock, lord of the teredoes | and acknowledged terror of the steve- | dore, but there is no room for it here. | 'What people may think-of Schwerin is really not important so long as he re- ). | 1 frains from his swagger and does not | mistake himself for the quintessence of | all earthly wisdom and authority. ARRIVAL. OF THE FRAWLEY: COMPANY THE MANAGER BAS ENGAGED A | 'HIGH-CLASS AGGREGATION. | The Plays to Be Presented Will Be | the Latest and Best East- | ern Successes. | The theatrical company which J. J. Gottlob and T. Daniel Frawley have been collecting for some weeks arrived last night on a special éar from New York, | after a most enjoyable ‘trip. The party | was minus the central figure, .Frawley | himself, who will arrive this morning. The company as it now stands consists of Madeleine Bouton, Cora Tinnie, Maude Winter, Fanchon Campbell, Eleanor Ca- rey, Edward M. Bell, Samuel Edwards, Alf Hickman, Robert G. Wilson, John T. Burke, David Conger, Theodore Roberts, | Louis Payne and Fred Williams. The lat- |'ter gentleman will be stage manager for | Mr. Frawley, a position which he Is ex- | pected to fill with great ability from. the fact that he was the original stage man- | ager of the Lyceum Company for many is beyond all doubt the greatest aggregation of players that the astute Frawley has ever gathered together, and what is more, it is the highest salaried | stock company that has ever played un- der his management. Each member has | been engaged with a view to the peculiar | fitness of the artist in his or her particu- | lar line. - The greatest difficulty was expe- ['rienced in. securing a leading lady who | came up to Mr. Frawley's ideal and final- Iy Miss Bouton was chosen, All the artists expressed themselves as an Francisco and as anxious to begin | rehearsals for the epening piece on Mon- June 13, which is to be Augustin Da- ast comedy success, ‘“‘Number 9” or the “Lady of Ostend.” The season will be for sixteen weeks and the company | will present some of the latest and very s.

He spoke particularly of the attempt being made to deny the Catholic soldiers at Camp Richmond the right to recelve religious instruction of their church. He urged the members of the so- clety to use thelr influence and protests to get the evil remedied by the Government. In in- stancing the evil be spoke of a lady who one day last week was - distributing circulars among members of the Minnesota regiment notifying them that mass Wwould be celebrated in the Cathedral last Sunday morning.. She met the chaplain, a Methodist clergyman, who objected to the distribution of the circulars, and informed her that the men would receive religlous instruction from him.

PAWNBROKER IS IN vLUCK’ | DETECTIVES AS COLLECTORS FOR BURGLARS’ FENCES. How Baker Walka Is Puzzled to Un- derstand Why Lees’ iMen Won’t Let Him Have His Own. Here are a few facts which demonstrate the peculiar methods of the Police Depart- ment. The Police Department is controlled by Chief Lees. Mr. Lees is the stately looking old gentleman who at parade events bestrides a high-stepping horse, displays:a bloodless sword and pines that no drum corps trails at the tail of his steed. As an additional preliminary, it may be added that the partaker is as bad as the thief; that the receiver of stolen goods has no standing in law, and that, beyond peradventure, the police are not paid for protecting him. With this explanation, a little story may be told and a moral drawn. 7 Gustav Walka, by birth a Swede, by trade baker, and at present out of a job, recently had a $45 suit stolen -from his room. Having acquired somewhere a no- tion as to the potency of the police, he reported the matter to'them. Two of the sleuths of Lees were put upon the track, made the round of pawnshops and found the suit at 617 Washington street, at which place the proprietor had advanced $7 50, with the stolen booty as collateral. Walka identified the clothes, but he did not get them. This is the peculiar part of the narrative. He was told by the police that before he | could get the suit he would have to pay the pawnbroker $7 50. They took the suit, and have it yet, awaiting the time when Walka shall be able to redeem his own. In other words, they are acting as col- lector for a pawnbroker who has no right One advancing money on stolen goods does so at his own risk, according to the statute; but the police seem to rise superior to the statute. They are with- holding from Walka a suit he has once paid for and is under no obligation to pay | for again. They are siding in with a | pawnbroker who not only is entitled to no protection but who should be arrested as a receiver of stolen goods. These circumstances ~are: respectfully called to the attention of the Chief. Per- haps in his anxiety to have a drum corps organized for his glorification he has over- looked the act of these underlings and will be glad to make them explain to the | commission why they.are keeping from the owner one $45 suit of ¢lothes to which he has clear title, to- which his right is undisputed and to which neither they nor their pawnbroking friénd has the slightest claim. 2 A FORESTIC CIRCLE.
