Levy, one of San Bernar- | dino’s leading business men, arrived In town yesterday on his semi-annual visit. Superfor Judge | Del Norte Fletcher A. Cutler of County, one of the leading spirits at the last Democralc convention, | |1s a guest at the | Baldwin, and y | day afterdoon, fter attending to consid- erable business about town, feeling a It tle fatigued, he decided to retire to his room for an afternoon nap. He was walking out Market street, and, in some unaccountable way, he got the entrances of the hotel and the theater mixed up, and entering the playhouse he soon found himself treading the intricate paths of orchestra and dress circle, finally reaching the stage. It must be known that the theater, as well as the hotel ve been turned over to the carpenter and the painter for extensive alterations, but this very | fact only added to the confuston of the | judicial mind, for Judge Cutler had al- been made familiar with scaffold- nt pots and other paraphernalia y to renovation by having often come into contact with them in the hotel. Therefore when he found himself on the stage of the theater he addressed him- | | selt to one of the workmen and sald somewhat impatiently, ‘“Where is that infernal elevator in this hotel. I have been looking for it for ten minutes, but everything is so topsy turvy I cannot find it. I'll be blessed if I walk up five | filghts of stalrs, either.” By this time M | ing the actions of the Judge and over- hearing his remarks, sald to him, I beg your pardon, my friend, but you are not | in the hotel.” | *“Not in the hotel,” sald “Well, where am I, then?” “You are on the stage of the Baldwin Theater,” sald Friedlander. The Judge looked aghast at his inform- ant and said in his most tragic manner: “Well, I must say that this Is my first appearance on any stage. I can now tell my political friends that I have made my professional debut. But I see so little enthusiasm displayed that I think T had better make my exit,” which the Judge did forthwith. the Judge. Fresno Republican, is spending his vaca- tion in this city, in company with his wife. John S. Mosby of Denver, Horace S. Bradford of New York and J. W. Knox of Merced are among the arrivals at the Palace. P. A. L. Mannheim, who has large min- ing and smelting interests in Helena, Mont., will be at the California for a short while. Judge E. V.

NEW STEAMSHIP LINE TO PLY ON THE PACIFIC First California and Oriental Steamer to Sail From San Diego in December. LOS ANGELES, Aug. 20.—The first steamer of the California and Oriental Steamship Company will safl from San Diego for Japan and China, via Hono- lulu, in December, and thereafter steamers will leave that port for the Orient every twenty-five days. This was the assertion made to-night by A. H. Butler of San Diego, president of the steamship company. Mr. Butler has just come back from New York, where he has been for several months successfully endeavoring to interest capital in the new steamship line. He returned last night to so arrange his business affairs that he can leave for Honolulu, Yokohama, Hongkong and other important ports to be touched by the steamers of the new company. Un his trip to Asiatic cities he will be ac- companied by Vice President Tweedle of the company, their purpose being to establish agencles for the company in all the important cities on that side of the ocean. They will leave early in September and expect to return in time to witness the sailing of their first vas- sel three months later. —_—e———————— NO LIMIT ON COST.
