As Presdent Wheeler did not 'd the meeting it was impossible to come to any definite conclusfon with regard to the new laws, | but In the absence of such decision the committee determined that there was no further time to be lost in the selection of a coach, as Keily, who seemed to be the first cholce of the members, had other offers under co on and had asked for an immediate answer from California. Therefore, in the face of the fact that the faculty recommendations, already signed by President Jordan and only ewalting President Wheeler's signature to become law, forbid the employment of Eastern coaches, they elected Addison Kelly of Princeton as head coach for the biue and gold during the season of 1900.

'MISS MAY BLAYNEY IN WILDE'S PLAY M ISS MAY BLAYNEY strikes one of the hatchetmen, and the, | fmmediately. I feel the charm of her personality before she has spoken and I ascribe her influ- | ence most emphatically to her refinement | of manner and voic Her voice is the English voice that we hear about but sel- | dom really hear; not the high-pitched ut- | terance so many English women are af- | fected with, but a voice that is low, sweet- ly modulated and indicative of breeding. | | Her manner is also prepossessing and she | is a very pretty woman. In the part of Lady Windermere, which she s taking in the Alcazar company's production of Oscar Wilde's play, “‘Lady Windermere's Fan,” she makes a good impression by virtue of these qualities and acts with admirable reserve and taste. Her first appearance before an American audlence reflects credit upon her and there is little justification for her nervousness, which 1 am sure she will soon control. Miss Blaynev {s not an actress who can rise to the helghts of passion or strike to the depths of intensity, but she knows the value of reserve and pleases with a multitude of delicate touches that are perhaps not so much in her art as in her nature. Her expression of feeling is too much a matter of quivering from head to foot, but she finds in the operation no doubt a safety valve for her nervousness, which the cordiality of her audience is sure shortly to dispel. The play is kneen of course. An epi- tome of cleverness, the fabric of which is closely knit and the thread of interest in no wise sacrificed or slighted for the sake of the dialogue, which teems with epigrams. 1 err perhaps in saying ‘“in no wise slighted,” for in point of fact, there are gome lines introduced that are not contributory to the plot, but we can for- give Wilde for that consciousness of his own powers which betrays him into dis- plai'l and which prevents him in common with all facile and brilllant writers from doing anything perfectly artistic. And, by the way, it is amusing to note how in the finish of the third act the charac- teristic cleverness of the author resulis in the curtain being roled up several times to exhibit the mummers who in- terpret it, but who, in spite of their Veri; gnud work, have really little to do wit | bringing about the applause. Hastings, who Is Lord Windermere, is quite interesting in point of sincerity in the first two acts and again in the last, but his restraint in the third is, I think, untrue to the situation and too conspicu- ous to be natural. Mrs. Erylynne in the hands of Juliet Crosby is symmetrical | and teiling, and is but another proof of her ability.” The company is not seriously defleient. PORTER GARNETT.

Spectal Dispateh to The Call. PASADENA, Jan. 16.—Recently Secre- tary David Heap of Throop” Polytechnic Institute asked Collis P. Huntington for a donation of $20,000 for the school. In refusing Mr. Huntington penned the fol- lowing: “I note carefully that you write on the subject of an endowment or chair in the institute for $20,000 or upward and in re- | sponse to that grcposltion let me say that the name of those who come to me for | money for this and other purposes is letglon. My daily mail is largely made up of appeals for help to relieve actual dis- tress and suggestions similar to yours. The former calls appeal more strongly 1o me, I confess, than do the kind you make, l‘nlthouxh I fully recognize the good your institution is doing and the admirable character of its work. I have done and am in fact doing a great deal for the negroes and their schools and I do this because the negro has not had a fair chance in the world and he needs not merely the moral sympathy and support of the kind-hearted, but their substantfal! help to put him on a footing where he | can stand among his fellows and have, not perhaps an equal show, but at least a good working chance. There are plenty of men In the United States who are not | only financially able to help institutions like yours but are willing and often glad to do it, as all their sympathles, through | their training and_experience, lie with , such enterprises. It is because the field of helpers in other directions seems to me scanty and 1 think what money I have to give away can be bestowed to greater advantage along lines of more actual need. The fleld of my donations | is already so large that I cannot in reason | widen it, hence I do not feel that 1 can accede to your request.” NATIONAL GUARD NOTES. One More Step Toward Getting the First Regiment in the Guard. Another step has been taken In the | placing of the First Regiment of In- | fantry in the National Guard. To- night four surgeons—Drs. W. D. Me- Carthy, P. H. J. Farrell, J. G. Morrissey and J. Fitzgibbons—by order of Major General Dickinson reported at the armory | on Page street and the one on Ellis street for the purpose of mkai a physical ex- amination of the men who are to enter the regiment. Companies B and I met at Page street and C and G at the Ellis street Armory. Then the other compa- nies were to be examined on the fol- lowing meeting nights: F and K on Tuesday, E and H on Wednesday, A and L on Thursday and D and M on Friday. It is probable that by the end of the week the men will have been examined and the reports will be transmitted to their proper destination, there to be acted upon. The rifles that were obtained for the First Reglment from the Benicla Arse- pal and which had been stored on the Marion have been removed from their place of storage and delivered at the ar- mories. There were thirty-six cases of these, each case containing twenty pleces. ‘The caps ordered by the uniform board for the Guard have been received from Philadelphia and are ready for distribu- tion. The “home industry’” blouses which were ordered by vote of Colomel Cutler and Lieutenant Colonel Geisting of the uniform board have not vet arrived. These are the blouses which are to be furnished by Mandel, Pursch & Co. from their fac- tory in New York City. The contract was awarded to this firm by the vote of the two members named at a cost of 20 cents more per garment than a contract was awarded to another firm at the same time for the same kind of goods. The reason assigned was that the two members wanted to patronize home industry. It turned out that the “home industry” is located in New York. —_—ee—————— COURT NOTES.
