S. W., Tivoli, Here. ARRY RICKARDS, one of the best known theatrical managers in Aus- tralia, arrived from Sydney, N. 8. W., on the steamer Alameda yester- day. Mr. Rickards is accompanied by his wife and two daughters, and Mr. Marcus, his private secretary. Mr. Rickards will remain some time in San Francisco, and during his stay will engage quite a number of variety artists for his theaters in Australia. His patrons want the very best in the business and they get it. The Tivoli Theater in Sydney and the Bijou and Gaiety in Melbourne are all owned and managed by Mr. Rickards. The majority of his artists usually came from England, but having decided upon a change, the voyage to the United States was undertaken in order to procure talent. From here the Rickards party will go to Denver, Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston and New York, and in all of these places a lookeut will be kept for “stars.”” After doing the United States, England, France and Germany will be visited, and then about the beginning of next year Mr. Rickards expects to reach Australia again. “I have not been very well for some time past,” said Mr. Rickards yes- terday, “so I made up my mind to make a tour of the world and inci- dentafly pick up attractions on my way. With the Tivoli in Sydney I have been connected for years, and it was there I gained my first success as a manager. It is not like your Tivoll, but is more on the lines of the Orpheum. Some of the people who played in my houses came on to San Francisco and made successes at the Orpheum here. During my tour I expect to make enough contracts to keep my theaters going for a year to come.” Mr. Rickards and his family are staying at the California Hotel.

ENGLE, N. M, Aug. 25.—W. J. Sprad- ling, a wealthy cattleman, controlling | stock Interests in Chloride, was killed by cowboys near Fairview in revenge for his murderous assault upon Miss Nellie Mc~ Kinstrey. Spradling without provocation made a threatening remark to the woman as he was riding by, both being on horse- back, and followed it up by firing at her. The bullet took effect in the woman’s neck and she fell from her horse. Cowboys near by started after Spradling, who emp- tied his revolver at them. A fusillade from Winchesters in the hands of the pursuers brought Spradling to the ground with six bullets in his body and head. He died almost instantly. The injured woman came here from Marion, Ind., to act as housekeeper for Spradling. She will recover. No cause for the trouble is known. A R OARE Trouble Over Cut Rates. LOS ANGELES, Aug. %.—It is an- nounced at the Southern Pacific Raflway | offices here that General Traflic and Pas- senger Agent McCormick of San Francis- co has notified the Rio Grande Western and the Colorado Midland railway com- | panies that hereafter it will refuse to honor thelr second-class tickets over the Southern Pacific.

He has very rich dirt and is taking considerable | gold out of his deep tunnel. Three big | boxes of dust were said to be buried be- neath the shack in which the hermit lives.
