o 1 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1900, SECOND NIGHT PUDIENGE ENTRANGED Wiaf ERNESG VAN DYRK'S SPLENDID GANNHAUSER Overture Unfolds ltself Like a Bursting Flower of Music and ls Greeted as the Finest Ever Heard in San Francisco. HETHER itf were that the new order of things rally down at Mo- Grand Opera- house, or the particular unfamiliarity of begin- ning the programme at 8§ o'clock sharp, which has been inaugu- rated by Mr. Grau, confused the authori- ties in charge of the curtain arrange- ents, may never be known; but the curi- spec vered gambols hs of Venu e of a group of merry supers heaven knows what eccen- among the enchanting sberg was the first taste * a la Grau, accorded the ht ted situation was accept- One has heard the “Tannhauser” over- ture to weariness, with all sorts and con- ditions of orchestras, but never given as it was given last night. It was like a great flower of music, opening ever into a greater glory of color, texture, tone; a rich arabesque, its line ‘and pattern ever changing with the shifting lights of the orchestration. And so it was throughout with the orchestral work, in its accompa- niments more marvelous even than in fts svmphonic intermezzos. There is the nicest balance in th hestral make-up— woodwind, brass, strings, all in their per- fect place and shape, and the richest color, most complete discretion, phrasing, into- nation, rhythm—all as good as may be, characterized the orchestra work through- cut. Bravo! Mr. Damrosch, and again bravo! It is curious now to recall the earlier . | A | OR i STERPIECE, GRAND OPE SINGERS IN THE CAST OF “TANNHAUSE: NTED IN MAGNIFIC! = LAST NIGHT. The or- nothing had happened n t tips of their toes 1y reclined in ap- til their cue Dyck and Miss Susan peacefully under. the roses of “Tannhauser”: Mendels- sohn’s gentle sarcasm and faint praise of the new Wagner; Spohr’s objection to his “lack of definite rhythms and rounded pe- riods,” “his ugly attacks on the ear”; the cabals of Paris st the mad German; mild capellmeister’s inquiries as to why Wagner could not have made “Tann- hauser” marry F abeth, and so on Strangely enough, in our ears this sounds now, with the broad, simple, limpid clar- ity of the Wagner we know so well be- fore us, vet there are still those who pre- fer the old Italian school, and to the ex- clusion of the new order of opera. But it was a Wagner audience last night at the Grand Opera-house, and, like most Wag- ner houses, eminently discreet In ap- hough it roused to unwonted en- Ki we have heard before, with her silver throat and_exquisite method. She is at her best in Elizabeth—acts the part in a graceful, simple fashion, looks the royal Tetiton maid with acclaim and sings in velvet voice the sustained periods of her part. She received the tribute, of ab- solute silence after her exquisite rendering of the famous praver of Elizabeth. The Venus of the evening, Susan Strong, has a full, round voice of mellow quality, ex- ceedingly well used, and she pleased much by her reading of the role. Mme. Olitzka, who sings the important little part of the shepherd boy in the first act, is also a q:xr»ah]e artist, and gave her alternate “pipe” and song with excellent effect. As to the Tannhauser—Ernest Van Dyck, great among Wagnerian tenors and new here to us, to our considerable mis- fortune, is an admirable artist—a splen- did actor, with a suave, strong, sweer, tenor voice used in exquisite fashion, and of a personable, graceful figure. = His conception of the recreant knight is un. questionably, unreservedly splendid, and s such it was appreciated by last night's dience. David Bispham has the Wolfram role, and this favorite of last season was heartily welcomed on this his second ap- pearance in San Francisco. Mr. Bispham's fine barytone is in good shape, except for a slight huskiness which' was apparent occasionally, and his a Wolfram was all that might be expected from this finished and conscientious ar- tist. The part of Herman was finely sung by Mr. Blass, who has an excellent basso- g{rorundo voice. Mr. Jacques Bars, Mr, ubbenet, Mr. Muhlmann and Mr. Vivi- 2ni all sang well their minor parts. The mise-en-scene was perfect, the cos- tumes and scenery picturesque, splendid and sufficlent, and the large chorus above criticisny. A speclal announcement is made by the opera management of a ‘“‘popular night” to be given next Sunday evening, when “Il Trovatore,” with Nordica, Van Caute- ren, Olitzka, Campanari, Journet, Maslero and Dippel will be put on, and at'prices to suft all pockets. BLANCHE PARTINGTON. The Tivoli. Collamarini gave her admirers another sample of her rare art when she appeared at the Tivoll last evening as Mignon in Ambroise Thomas' opera of the same name. ‘‘Mignon” is as different from “Carmen” as it is possible for one char- acter to differ from another; still Col- lamarini adapts herself to the require- ments of the waif heroine with the sama easy grace which made her Carmen the thing of joy it was. The artiste was m fine voice, and her support was excellent, Repetto made a spiendld Fillina, and she gave the scintillating (;)o!onalse with a wonderful brilliancy and dash. Russo was at his best as Wilhelm Meister, and Nicolini found himsell happily cast as Lothario. “Mignon” will be repeated on Thursday evening. To-night “Ernani,” with Bar- bareschi, Castellano and Nicolini in’ the cast.

The Retail Shoe Clerks’ Protective As- sociation held a largely attended meet- ing in the hall at 320 Post street last night. Two weeks from the present date the charter of the organization will expire, and the by-laws will go into effect. All shoe clerks desiring to join the organiza- tion are recommended to do so before this occurs, as a raising of the initiation fee will result. A committee composed of J. A. John- Kauffman, ston, J.

G | Valentine, decedent’s ‘husband. - In . the contest It is alleged that the deceased at the time the will was executed, Sep- tember 21, 1899, was not of sound mind, but at frequent intervals was an inmate of asylums and hosgfla]s for the treat- ment ‘of chronfc alcholism and the de- mentia and mental .aberration that re- fi\l’}thlherefmm. - e contestant further charges that hig deceased wife was unduly influenced by Tloyd J.

In conclusion the con-' testant prays that the will be denied ad- mission to grohate. and declares that he is her sole heir at law and therefore en-. titled to letters of. administration upon Valentine also filed .a claim against his Wwife's estate for $2400, which sum- he ai- leges he loaned ‘her some time prior to her death. Mrs. Valentine left the bulk of her. es- tate to Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Well of 415 Locust street, Philadelphia. These bene- ficlaries took the deceased into their home When- she was a tiny child and cared for her as though she was their own until she grew to womanhood. Decedent oniy left the home of her benefactors when she married a well-known Eastern horse- man, a Mr. Mulvany. Her second mar. riage was to Mr. Valentine, and was sol- emnized at San Diego in 1897.

The wheels of the vehicle passed over the lad’s body, breaking his arms and crush- ing his chest, He lived but a short time after he had been taken to the Harbor Recelving Hospital. Timothy Leary, the boy's father, “is proprietor of the City Hotel, at 512 Howard street. Shortly after 5 o'clock last evening a number of boys were playing ball on the sidewalk near where the accident oc- curred. The ball at one time was accl- dentally tossed into the street, and young Leary made a rush to get it. He did not see the wagon approaching, and almost in an instant he had collided with the horse and.was thrown to_the pavement. The driver made an effort to stop, but before the horse came to a standstill the wheels of the wagon had crushed the boy. Wiliing hands lifted the unconscious lad and carried him into the hotel to awalit the arrival of .the ambulance. The child suffered great pain and bled much in- ternally. ‘At the Harbor Hospital he was treated by Dr. Robinson, but he died in * S Bren his add en, the driver, gave his address as 1441 Market street. MINERS TALK O‘VBE- CONVENTION TOPICS Oil Men Reported to Be Coming to the Session in Large Numbers. The executive committee of the Califor- nia Miners' Assoclation met last evening at the Union League Club and talked over matters to come Before the State conven- tion next week. Secretary Benjamin re- ported that there would be between 500 and 600 delegates at the State gomvention. Lieutenant Governor Neff reported that Nichols, the owner of the Polar Star mine, Wwould not hydraulic this winter and that the litigation concerning that mine was in statu quo. Charles G. Yale suggested that John M. Wright should be invited to at- tend‘ the ‘ul:an\;lenzlon ‘zo present facts con- cerning the oil situation. The executive committee of the Califor- nla Petroleum Miners' Assoclation last evening elected the following delegates to the State miners’ convention: Profes- sor Heald, W. B. Winn, W. B. Simmona, E. D. Berrl and Colonel Crane, the presi- dent of the association. —————— Robbed Another Roomer.

LT T The duty of appointing the standing committees of the State Senate of ths next Legislature will ¢evolve upon Lieu- tenant Governor Jacob H. Neff. Accord- ing to his ideas of fair representation there should be at ieast ome Democrat on each committee, but of the holdover Senators ‘only five are Democrats. The only Democratic Senator elect is Joseph M. Plunkett of the Seventeenth District of San Francisco. Six Democrats there- fore comprise the strength of the party in the upper branch of the Legislature. If there be thirty-four standing commit- tees, a number sufficient to give a chair- manship to each Senator of the majority, each Senator of the minority may be obliged to serve on at least five commit- tees. The Lieutenant Governor wouid find the work of adjusting the committees somewhyt easy if he had a few moro Democrats to fill in with. The holdover Republican Senators are: James T. Laird, Dr. W. F. Maggard, Willlam M. Cutter, John F. Davis, Dr. Chester Rowell, John A. Hoey, Frank W. Burnett, Sig M. Bettman, Frank W. Leavitt, E. K. Taylor, Charles M. Short- ridge, 8. C. Smith, C. M. Simpson, A. T. Currier, A. E. Nutt—15., The holdover Democratic Senators are: J. W. Goad, J. C. Sims, J. B. Curtin, R. Porter Ashe, H. L. Pace—5. The Republican Senators elect are: T. H. Seivage, John R. Tyrrell, W. B. Lardner, Robert Corlett, J. J. Luchsing C. M. Belshaw, Robert T. Devlin, A. E. Muenter, John G. Tyrrell, BE. 1. Wolle, Richard M. Welch, John .. Nelson. G. R. Lukens, James D. Byrnes, Louis O'Neal, Thomas Flint Jr., C. B. Greenwell, Fred M. Smith, A. A. Caldwell—19. The_single Democratic Senator-elect is Joseph M. Plunkett. The official count in the Fifth Senato- rial District may turn the scale against W. B. Lardner, but advices from Placer and El Dorado counties are to the ef- fect that Mr. Lardner is a winner by a slender majority. There is much manships. John who held the second place on the Senate Judiciary Committee iu the last Legisla- | ture, wiil doubtiess be promoted to chair- man, as_ Senator Gillette of Humbold*, who held first place in the last session, was not a candidate for re-election to the Legislature. Common report is to the effect that Sen- ator Cutter of Yuba will be appointed chairman of the Senate Committee on Ap- portionment. Twenty different bills to ap- portion the State into Congressional, Sen- atorjal and Assembly districts have been prepared. Should the national reappor- tionment give California eight Represent- | atives in Congress the plans already mapped out would have to undergo read- justment or provision be made for electing one Congressman at large. The appor- tionment scheme prepared by Senator Cutter is not acceptable to Congressman Metcalf and other leading men of Ala- meda County. Senator S. C. Smith of Kern County is in line for the chairmanship of the Finance Committee. Service on the committee for three consecutive sessions of the Senate is pupposed to count for something. He was slated for the first place on the Finance Committee at the beginning of the session of 1899, but at the eleventh hour the slate was mysteriously changed. Charles M. Belshaw, who has made a record 1n the Assembly for economy in the disbursement of public funds, is spoken of as one who could render the State ex- gellent service as chairman of the Senate Committee on Claims. It is conjectured that either Mr. Lard- ner of Placer or Mr. Tyrrell of Nevada will be appointed chairman of the Senate | Committee on Mines and Mining. Thomas Flint Jr. will be re-elected pres- ident pro tem. of the Senate. His ability as a presiding officer is universally recog- nized. Frank Brandon will doubtless be again chosen secretary of the Senate. It seems to be settied beyond all doubt that Alden Anderson of Solano will be re-glected to the position of Speaker of the Assembly. He served in that office to the satisfactfon of both parties during the greater part of the regular session and throughout the extra session of the last Legislature. C. W. Pendleton of Los Angeles is spoken for as an aspirant for the Speakership, but he seems to be the only one that regards his candidacy as a serious proposition. F. E. Dunlap, who was recognized in the last sesslon as one of the leaders of the Assembly, will doubtless be placed at the head of the Committee on Rules. W. S. Melick is an _applicant for the chairmanship of the Ways and Means Committee. He has served on the com- mittee throughout three sessions of the Legislature. =~ W. C. Ralston desires to serve as chairman of the Assembly Com- mittee on Mines and Mining. According to the semi-official count sixty-five of the eighty Assemblymen- elect are Republicans. The patronage of the House consists of ninety-eight places. There is one position at $8 per day. There are fourteen places at $6 per day; four- teen at $6 a day; forty-two at $4 per day: gossl% concerning chair- F. Davis of Amador, twenty at $3 per day and seven at $2 50 per day. Of course, there will be the usual scramble for the spoifls and the usual effort of the hoggls! get more than his share. A contest for the chalrmanship of the San Francisco_delegation is in progress. Arthur G. Fisk, Assemblyman-elect, Thirty-seventh District, who ran %0 ahead of Ms ticket and recelved 1400 ma- Jority, is supported by many members of the ecity delegation. Martin Kelly is booming the candidacy of Martin Brady of the Forty-third District. The Alameda County delegation will hold an early meeting to organize. Tt is presumed that one of the holdover Sena- tors will be elected chairman. The hold- overs are E. K. Taylor and Frank W. Leavitt. legislator to The preference of the people, as shown at the recent election for Republican principles, is equally as great for the ‘‘American” clear Ha- vana clgar. - —_—————— Margaret Raabe Is Not Insane. Mrs. Margaret Raabe, who was arrested last Saturday on complaint of her hus- band, Fred Raabe, the Democratic poli- tician, and charged with insanity, was re- leased from custody yesterday by order of the Lunacy Commission.

Beeman, of chewing gum fame, whose bald head, or rather a striking like- ness of it, is plastered on billboards, fences and telegraph poles from Maine to the Pacific Coast, arrived in town last evening and registered at the FPalace. After affixing his autograph to the hotcl | book, an autograph that looked for all the world like a streak of lightning, the man who has made millions from the sale of | his jaw-exercising material left instruc- | tions {with the clerk to be allowed to rest | late on the morrow for he had spent six days and nights on the train and accord- ing to his own confession was “tired clean | through.” A reporter met him as he started for | the elevator. “You are a devotee of gum-chewing, of course?’ Beeman was asked. 0, sure! 1 was formerly a victim of | the worst kind of indigestion. Look at me now,” and as he spoke his chest ex- panded until it seemed as If his coat but- tons must give way. “The ostriches get he track when I roll along.”” O oS Californians_chew much gum?" he went on. “Well, I should say they did. We opened a branch factory on the coast l‘a:t Year and what do you think the re- celpts from our coast sales amounted to? Just $120,000 a year. The Beeman factories are turning out three tons of gum a day, Our company belongs to the gum trust now and the six concerns in the combine manufacture about ten tons a day. “When pepsin gum was first placed on the market ten years ago the W. C. T. U. wouldn't even look at our advertisement. But after we had convinced them thal the sale of our composition had cut off the use of chewing tobacco 50 per cent we had them all passing resolutions indorsing oduct.” D“B‘inl’cl; the trust was formed, something over a year ago, dividends of 17 per cent on common stock and 7 per cent on pre- ferred stock have been declared. e trust is capitalized at $9,000,000. Mr. Bee- man expects to be in the city a week or two, after which he will spend a month in Tos Angeles. His trip to the coast Is purely for pleasure. Mr. Beeman said: “It will be just eleven years the 13th day of next month that the first stick of pep- fin gum was made. I was practicing med- icine at the time and as a side issue ran a pepsin manufactory. One day while I was dictating a letter my stenographer, Miss Nellie Horton, interrupted abruptly and wanted to know why I didn't mix pepsin with gum and thereby increase the ufe! of the pepsin. t was a capital idea and without wait- ing to finish the letter I sent Miss Horton after half a dozen packages of common chewing gum. We got an ol stove, mixed the gum and pepsin with some water and then after the mixture had cooled we un- dertook to chew it. But it wouldn't chew 1 was not discouraged, however, and after repeated experiments the first genulje g‘qisln gum was placed on the market in e ruary of the following vear.
