NEW YORK, Dec. 4—The actual trial of Roland B. Mollneux, cha:rged with causing the death of Mrs. Catherine J. Adams, by sending poison to Harry S. Cornish, with intent to kill, commenced | to-day, though legal preliminaries have already occupled twelve days, that much | time having ben consumed in getting a jury. The proceedings to-day were occu- pled by the opening address to the jury of Assistant District Attorney Osborne. At the request of the counsel for the defense the jindictment found by the | Grand Jury was read in full, the prisoner | listening attentively and com -aSIy. When the reading of the Indictment had concluded Mr. Weeks moved for its ais- missal, on the ground that the proof was not sufficient. The court overruled the motion, and As- sistant District Attorney Osborne began his opening speech. Throughout the scath- ing introductory remarks of the attorney for the prosecution the accuser remained cool, calm and indifferent. In striking contrast _ with the demeanor of the | younger Molineux was the attitude of his father, General Leslie Molineux. Again and again, as Mr. Osborne attacked the character o the prisoner, the old man burst intod tears. To the aiempt of Mr. Osborne to bring into the case the name of H..C. Barnet, who died at the Knicker- bocker Athletic Club from the effects of cyanide of mercury poisoning, Mr. Weeks, representing the defense, objected in most energetic fashion. He asked the court to order the Listrict Attorney to not again refer to the Barnet case. The recorder refused so to rule or to.order. This is considered significant, as showing a dis- sition on the part of the recorder to al- ow the introduction of evidence regard- ing the death of Barnet, In so far as it re- lates to_the Adams soning case. The court adjourned until to-morrow. S French Suppressed.

Undoubtedly Francis Powers has a man- ner; his touch Is unmistakable. He has originality, though without scope, which lack is manifest in the frequent reminders of “The First-Born” that occur In “‘Mother Earth.” The development of his plot depends largely upon the gossip of minor characters, a dangerous expedient. He is given also to the pantomimic epi- sode, which, in excess, distorts rather than harmonizes. A first performance is roperly the moment for suggestion, and f Mr. Powers will take to bed with him these friendly hints I shall not have writ- ten in vain. . | “One may overlook the incongruity of the nauve of Bt | )inguage In which he makes his charac- ters speak, for Mexicans in Mexico speaking broken English is not precisely consistent. A semi-literal transiation of the southern tongue—always within the limits of dignity—may be used to advan- tage to preserve the color and tone of nic environment. 1 would state, how- | ever, that such transpositions of adjective “the friend distinguished" in the serious con- sideration of a serious play. The first performance of this last effort of Powers' was painstaking and honest, and I may sprinkie praises on the cast without fear of falling amiss. Ormonde in the part of Manuel Quinterro was re- moved from his usual primacy, though not so much from any failing on his part and noun as K His is l;](ll a big part, nor, ln; eed, are any of the parts monstrous, and when I say ot the best acting wab done in the slenderest roles I may be giving some ldea of how admirable is the per- formance as a whole. Miss Crosby was Carmenesque as Caro- lina and Miss Fallon as an old Mexican woman was in excellent character. Frank Denithorne overacts and is too conscious, but he may be tamed in time. This ap- plies also to_ George Webster, though | there are credit marks due to both of these. A part of the nigh to passing over was the incidental music by Emile Bruguiere, which served no important purpose (incidental music never does) and was lacking In character and interest. “Mother Earth” was preceded h! a farce, “Up to \\':ukI?s." which should not keep any one away from the Alcazar. b PORTER GARNETT. layers. ( | Grand Opera-House. Once more the Grand Opera-house gave | hospitality to the work of local compos- | ers. This time it was the comic opera | entitied *“His Majesty,” by H. J. Stewart | ana Peter Robertson. While it is rather difficult to forl a decisive opinion from a first hearing, and especially when this | was easy to observe that the music and 11k to were worthy of earnest approval. | In fact, the idea which underlies this story s exceedingly ingenious. An al- | most bankrupt country advertises for a | cheap king (350 per week), who because of | this insignificant stipulation is hardly able to exist. In the midst of his starv- ing condition the crown prince of a wealthy empire is announced, and there is no court to receive him. Fortunately, a stranded opera company arrives in the capital, and the king promises to be pres- ent at the Ker(nrmunce as a drawing card provided the company acts as his court during the reception of the crown prince. With this there is interwoven a love story which it is not necessary to discuss. The gist of the piot lies in the idea of a hired king, and this naturally gives room for many humorous situations, which Robertson was careful to emphasize. So we find in the second act the king and | queen ‘“‘cleaning house.” And yet the ma- terlal is so good that there couid be still | more fun introduced, especially in the first act, which seems rather long drawn out. William Woolf_as the king did not do full justice to the splendid roie he as- | sumed. Neither could Hattie Bell Ladd | grasp the exceedingly delicate characte | fstics of a stranded “prima donna asso- | Juta.” This in itself is a role which could 1y humorous, but which in the hands of idlss Ladd lost all bur- lesque quality. Far better than the con- ception_of Miss Ladd was the work of be made exceedin Ethel Strachan, who impersonated the soubrette of the opera company with | much ingenuity. She ought to receive | more prominence in the Grand Opera- house company. Bessie Fairbairn as the queen; Edith Mason, Winfred Goff and Thomas rsse gave very satisfactory renditions offtheir respective roles. The music is throughout “chic.” 1 want to call especial att@ntion to the finales and to the ensemble Busic in general. 1 am now more than evef con- vinced that Mr. Stewart is leaning t@ward the serious side of composition, andi am sure he would make a success of grand opera. The best points in this opera are t| rious passages. The quartets, qu and trios and one or two arias, tog with the finales, prove the truth o assertion. A very funny idea wa burlesque of the opera company, wi a great credit to Stage Manager The same may be said of the march ages, which the music by Mr. St ts admirably.

Jordan, a former citizen of San Francisco, has been arresied in the City of Mexico ‘'on a charge of attempted murder. One night last wdek he calied Mrs, Hegeman, widow of a Mexican rail- road contractor, to her bedroom door, and drawing a pistol fired twice at her, both shots falling of their effect. Jordan met Mrs. Hegeman several months ago while on a business trip in Mexico. He and Mrs. Jordan, who accompanied him, do not seem to have got along very well to- gether, and a short time after their ar- rival his wife left for her home in this city, ffl\'in‘ him _to understand that she should institute divorce proceedings. After his wife’s departure Jordan pald marked attentions to Mrs, Hegeman, and their marriage was set for October, when the widow received a letter from Mra. Jordan, which was the first intimation ghe had of that lady’'s existence. Upon this she postponed the marriage, and this £0 weighed on Jordan'’s mind _that it started him to drinking. Half crazed by bad whisky he attempted to kill the woman_he loved but could not marry. When Mrs. Hegeman saw his desperate intention she fled to the street, and her cries attracting the gendarmes, Jordan was placed in jail, where he is now awaiting trial. Previous to Jordan's attack on Mrs. Hegeman he had made a will leaving haif his estate, including a $25,000 life insur- ance policy,*to her. Died in His Wagon.
