Lines were forgotten at times, but it made no material difference to the dramatis personae. With a wave of the hand @nd an unexpressed but de- lineated apology to the audience, the cast carried their performance through to the end and then the house broke in a five minutes’ applause. A “pas de quatre,” as it was billed on the programme in which Miss Mae Slessinger, Miss Florence Greene- baum, Miss Marion Lewis and Miss Beatrice Sachs took part, was distinct- ively French in execution and treat- ment. The dance caught the favor of the audience and was applauded for three encores. Coons in Dixie,” which oresented Miss Etta Son, ILevy, Mfiton H.

A B e = T ) WENT TO HUNT FOR DUCKS gt HIS COMPANION IN THE BOAT BARELY SAVED. R e The Youth Carried Sixty Cartridges and His Feet Were Tangled in a String of Decoys. P T o Weighted with sixty shotgun cartridges and with his feet tangled in a string of decoys, Wallace Anderson, a 19-year-old | youth of this city, sank to his death in | the muddy waters of San Pablo Bay, near Ellis Landing, yesterday morning. | The drowned boy lived at 330 Brannan | street. He left here Saturday evening in | company with two other youths, John | Casey of 15 South Park and George Long, who lives on Harrison street, near Fourth, to go duck-shooting in the bay. The trio spent the night at San Pablo, and yester- day morning at 7 o’clock started out after ducks. The young men procured two boats. Long got into one of these alone and An- derson and Casey took the other. Their | boat was noticed to be old and leaky, but | was not thought unsafe by them. As al- ready stated, Anderson had sixty shotgun | shells on his person. They were in a belt about his body and made quite a welght. He was further encumbered by a heavy hunting coat. The hunters pushed off and had not pro- ceeded far up the bay when the boat con- taining the two began to leak badly. The water came in faster than it could be bailed out, and the boys saw they could not reach shore before it sank. They called to Long, but before he could reach | them their craft had gone down. The minute the boat sank Anderson dis- appeared. His feet were tangled in the decoys and he could not swim. Long reached the place in time to extend an oar to Casey, who was still struggling in the water. Anderson’s body was recovered later on with grappling hooks, the water being but eight feet deep where he was drowned. The body will be brought to this city to- e COLUMBIA THEATER IN FIGHTING BOERS GALA DRESS| Irishmen Pass Strong e The Programme Full of Bright and Interesting Numbers.

SOME VERY WARM SPEECHES PATRICK’S DAY PROFITS TO BE DONATED. e Celebration Committee Sets Business Aside to Discuss Affairs of the Struggling Men of the ‘Transvaal. R Had England’s Premier, Lord Salis- bury, been connected by telephone with Red Branch Hall, 1132 Mission street, yes- terday afternoon he would have been for- cibly impressed with the fact that the ST. sons of down-trodden Ireland sympathize very much with the Boers who are strug- over gling to retain their freedom in Africa. When the words Cooney, Richard O'Connor, “Bill” Broderick and others went sizzling into his ears he would probably have sprung up with a jump, thinking a live trolley wire had crossed his own line. The convention of delegates from Irish societies to arrange for the celebration of St. Patrick’s day was in session when the Boer matter came up. Sub-committees were to report on a programme, the choice of an orator and so on, but the meeting never got beyond the discus- sion of the Transvaal war. There was a large assemblage of delegates. C. B. Flanigan, chairman of the meet- s, as soon as it had been called to or- der, announced that it had been decided to donate the profits of the entertainment to the Eoer reijef fund. “There may be some objection made to such a donation, and as it is specitied fo what purpose the money is to be used,” eid Captain Filgate, it had better be ted that it is for the widows and or- al and relief Just donate it for ho 3 work,” said Judge Coon “That will relieve the committee of the danger of any breach of internatio; law. After the money gets over there we'll not ask what A burst of use it has been put to.’ ap- plause swept the hall at this last remark. Mr, Flanigan then introduced the fol- lowing resolutfons which had been pre- pared by his committee: Whereas, Great Britain is waging a war of ‘Uransvaal and Orange Free ts show it to be conciusively selfish and mercenary mo- the heroic ense of the and the fa dy Boers—a defense glorious in victories, where the few fighting for homes and independence have hurled back great armies of the invader— invites the admiration of mankind; and whereas, the British Government, under the humiliation of constant reverses and defeats its armles, and with hatred and envy of the vallant foe, has put in motion machinery for another gréat army of invasion, by conserip- tlon If necessary, it is meet that our Gover; ment, allled to the South African States by unity of principles and with a vast majority of its people in sympathy with the South Afri can republic, should intervene to stop the fur ther shedding of blood, such intervention b ing in accordance with our history as a Chr! tian people, and it should maintain the sov- ereignty of the Boer republic. , Resolved, That the Government of the United States be requested to tender its friendly of- fices, With & view to stopping further blood- hed. Regolved, That this convention of the Irish socleties of San Francisco, assembled to pre- pare for the celebration of St. Patrick’s day, send greeting to President Kruger of the Trans- | vaal and President Steyn of the Orange Free State and congratulate -them on the glorious victories of the armies of their republics; that we salute their commanders, Joubert, Cronje, Meyer and our fellow Irishman, Blake; that We hope for continued success in their defense God that ultimate vietory may dom and independence of South Africa. Resolved, That this convention appeals to all people who love Ifberty to contribute gener- { ouely to the fund for the Boer wounded and an ambulance corps. Resolved, That coples of these resolutions be sent to President Kruger, President Steyn and Dr. Leyd and our Senators and Representatives in Congress, and that they be fu shed to the daily press. & John Ganey moved the immediate adop- tion of the resolutions, but Willlam Brod- erick objected to the part asking that the stop the war. The conven- a very small body and Was’ perhaps assuming too much when it requested this Government to step in. 'Ths best way to stop this war,” said Judge Cooney amid laughter, to ask Kruger to enforce peace. England can't and Kruger must dictate. Of course we are a small part of the population, but mass meetings to express Boer sympathy are belng heid everywhere and our voice Should be added. ,We but express the entiments of citizéns of ~every other nationality, except the full fledged Eng- lishmen.’ ; Delegate Conniffe said the resolutions just as they stood were nothing to be hamed of. ‘T think what we ought to do. Judge Ferral, amid more laughter, {0 express sympathy for old England. I always believe in sympathizing with the under dog in a fight. That's the only ob- jection I see to adopting the resolutions as they stand.” John J. Barrett made a stirring speech upholding _the Boers and saying that strong and concise resolutions should be adopted. On motion of M. J. Gorman the resolu- tions were adopted as read, with the un- derstanding that another set, more brief but just as strong, should be prepared for reading St. Patrick’s night. L. C. Cnopius, 1. K. Van Baggen and Theodore Pinther of the California Transvaal relief commit- tee also addressed the assemblage. The executivg committee will meet again on Thursday night. AROUND THE CORRIDORS D. M.
