Tt s full of clean fun and pretty music, which the Tiveli people bring cut with fine effect, - and the staging is about the best that has been seen at this house. The toy matinee last Saturday was such a success that the management will give another on next Saturday. An extra matinee will be given on Thursday. Orpheumn. Henry Lee, a splendid character imper- sonator, is the new face at the Orpheum this week. The holdovers, however, are so good that they are worth seeing many times. ‘‘The Major's Appointment,” a playlet that makes the gentle weep, is Barrow’s offering for this week, and in it he finds ample opportunities for, himself and company. Grace Van Studdiford has some new songs and Lew Sully a batch of clever new jokes that make the pro- gramme appear even to the regular Or- pheum goers a brand new thing stuffed with joy. California. “Phroso,” the dramatized version of Anthony Hope's novel, was again pre- sented at the California Theater last night by the Neill Company to a well- filled house. All the characters are well sustained and the many stirring situa- v + marsh frogs, fireflies and will o' the ‘wisps, some of them richly costomed and others tastefully attired in very little of anything, all making a fetching comoina- tion that will insure success. The Alameda ladies who have so often contributed to_the hospital fund through their successful entertainments have ‘“carried the war into Africa” and are coming over to give San Franciscans an opportunity tosee what talented Alameda children can do under the successful di- rection of musicians and artists of high standing.

To-night, at 8 o’clock sharp, the curtain will rise on the Elks’ entertainment at the Alhambra, under the auspices of San Francisco Lodge No. 3, B. P. O. E. The lodge has put forth every endeavor to make the occasion a memorable one and a programme has been prepared that will go down in the annals of amusements on the Pacific Coast. Among the volunteers are Camille d’Arville, the great operatic star; Josephine Gassman and her pick- aninnles; Mr. and Mrs. Tobin, ~refined musical artists; George Matthews, the Golden Gate barytone; the Corinthian Minstrels, the Elks, Rincon and Corinth- % 2 HE Importance of Being Earnest. a trivial comedy by Oscar Wilde, was presented at the Columbia | Theater last evening by Henry | Miller and his talented company. The audience was keenly alive to. the wit ]n_nd satire of which de was a mas- er and the clever work of Miller nd his associates brought out the eartiest approval of those who wit- nessed the play. Miller's company is not as strong as it was last season and while | the performance last night was excellent, | it lacked the finesse that characterized | the previous presentations of Miller's company. Margaret Anglin and E. J. Morgan are not easily replaced. Of those who shared the success of last night, speclal mention must be accord- ed to Miss Jennie FEustace and Miss Florence Rockwell. The change from a costume play to a society comedy serves to show the versatility of Miller and his | company. “The Importance of Being Earnest” is well presented and should servl? to crowd the theater during the week. Grand Opera-House. San Francisco gave to Melbourne Mac- Dowell last night an open handed wel- come, as warm as a California summer, and filled the Grand Opera-house with a discriminating and well pleased audi- ence that applauded all the good things in Victorien Sardou’s ‘‘Cleopatra,” and was tolerant of the indifferent. The costumes were rich, the scenery beauti- ful, and the spirit of the play well car- ried out. Mr. MacDowell has improved in appearance and even, in style since we last saw him and he well earned the ap- plause that was showered upon his first appearance. Florence Stone made the most of the role of the Egyptian queen and, although boisterous where force was indicated in the lines, amply made up | for that error by the excellence of her acting in the magnificent fourth act, the . gem of the play. Jack Webster, the | Kephren, wasover loud and authoritative for a slave. The thunder storm before the temple of Isis was well worked up and earned curtain calls for the princi- pal characters. ‘“‘Cleopatra’ will have a good week's run if the reception last night is to be taken as an indication. Central. “The War of Wealth” began what prom- ises to be a most successful engagement I at the Central Theater last night. The play is described on the bill as a romantic melodrama, and it fully measures up to that designation, being replete with thrill- ing and lurid complications in almost every act. mmings as John Warfleld in the leading role earned re- peated_applause for his emotional work. {Oza Waldrop as Hallie Worley, the in- #enue part, is very clever. Other ‘members of the cast who_acquit- ted themselves satisfactorily are Richard Scott, George Nichols, Paul Gerson, George Webster, Lorena Atwood, Fay | Courtney and Margaret Marshall. Tivoli. “The Toy Maker” opened its third week last night at. the Tivoll Opera-house to the usual big audience. The merry plece goes better than ever and the people do tions are admirably worked out. The play is gorgeously mounted and sheuld be well patronized. Alcazar. The “First Born” began its second week at the Alcazar last evening. There was no diminution in the attendance and the play was warmly received. ‘‘Gloriana,” the curtain-raiser, recelved its meed of applause and everybody seemed pleased with the night’s entertainment. Howard Scott, Barton Hill, Charles Biyan and Miss Lila Condere made their usual hits in their parts and were warmly applauded. Fischer’s Concert House. Merle Stanton, lyric soprano, and Mlle. Atlantis, fire dancer, were new at Fisch- er's Concert House last night and both scored hits. Carter and Gerald, singing and talking comedians, presented an amusing speclalty; Gladys Middleton sang new songs; William De Boe, the “upside down’ man, continued his won- derful act, and Clara Palgier Hyde, the violinist, responded to six” encores. The rest of the bill was good and the house was packed. ’ Chutes. The famous Flying Jordans are the headliners at the Chutes this week and proved a big card with their sensational aerial act. Clinton Montgomery has a fine barytone voice and sang several new songs with beautiful illustrated pictures. Mile. Adelaide appears in a graceful high- wire act. Guilo Rosetti has a fine tenor volce and sang selections from popular operas. Other good numbers are Jeseph- ine Gassman and her pickaninnies, the Wilson novelty dancers, Baby Rut]-\ Ro- land and new moving pictures. Olympia. There is an exceptionally good bill this week at the Olympia. The aerlal trapeze act of the Samayoas is one of the most daring pleces of work ever seen on the local vaudeville sta. Ethel Barlow, Ma- bel Hudson and Mabel Rutherford were all well recefved last night and all the other numbers were thoroughly appreci- ated. Wonderful Fairy Play. All the wonderful things of fairy lore that delight the children and entertain those of more mature years will be seen and heard in the pretty fairy operetta, “The Marsh Xing,” to be given at a matinee next Saturday at the Alhambra Theater, for the benefit of the ‘Little Jims” and the other little sufferers at the Children’s Hospital in this ecity. There is the “gloomy wood,” where the wonderful Enchantress weaves her spells and stirs her caldron; there is the mys- terious Marsh King, Flamado, who liyes in a shadowy cavern under the marshes and who holds In- captivity the brave knight Roland, brother of the beauteous maiden, Hildegarde; there are mysterious conspirators who plot the downfall of everybody, an most two score of lovely moonbeams, who, attending their fair Moon Queen, assist her to straighten out all the complications. All these, with a dancing, slnzlnf. playful, dainty’ throng of sprites, trolls, elves, gnomes, SCENE FROM THE THRILLING DRAMA “PHROSO,” WHICH IS BEING PRESENTED TO CROWDED AND EN- THUSIASTIC HOUSES AT THE CALIFORNIA THEATER BY THE NEILL COMPANY.

Grass Valley Mining Case. Blennett Ople and Ross E. Browne were the witnesses examined vesterday in the TUnited States Circuit Court in the case of thu Pennsylvania Consolidated Mining Company vs. the Grass Valley Explora- tion Company. Their testimony was as to the direction of the Pennsylvania vein. Nothing new or important was eliclted. The trial will be resumed at 11 o’clock this morning. GADETS APPEAL FOR REHEARING Complain That Fair Trial Was Not Given Them. Secretary Root Says That He Can Do Nothing For Them. WASHINGTON, May 27.—The five cadets dismissed by the Secretary from the West Point Military Academy called at the War Department this afternoon and were presented to Secretary Root by Senator Hawley of Connecticut and Sen- ator Cockrell of Missouri. The object of the cadets’ visit was to complain to Sec- retary Root that action had been taken in their cases without giving them access to the testimony against them, or without permitting them to offer any testimony in reply to the charges made as to their con- duct. Each cadet made a long statement | to Secretary Root, and all were persistent tLeir representations that they had not treated fairly. At the conclusion of itements Secretary Root asked y had not been given a copy of the rges against them, and they re- pli=d Y\ the afirmative. They also admit- THE EMPORIUM.

Sidney Smith’s Prayer for Edward. To the Editor of the Spectator—Sir: On the Sunday after the birth of his Majesty King Edward VII, then Duke of Cornwall. | Sydney Smith, preaching at St. Paul's| Cathedral, made an addition of the Bid- ding Prayer as follows: *We pray also for that infant of zhe‘ royal race whom in thy good Providence | thou hast given us for our future King. | ‘We beseech Thee so to mold his heart| and fashion his spirit that he may become a blessing and not an evil to the land of | his birth. May he grow in favor with man, by leaving to its own force and di- rection the energy of a free people. May he grow in favor with God by holding the | faith of Christ fervently and feelingly, | without feebleness, without fanaticism, without folly. As he will be the first man | in these realms, so may he be the best; | disdaining to hide bad actions by high | station, and endeavoring always by the | example of a strict and moral life to re- pay those gifts which a loyal people are so willing to spare from their own neces- sities to a good King.”"—New York Sun. _———————— Women in Dead Letter Offica. Germany has taken a leaf out of Amer- jca’s book. Each head branch depart- ment of the German Postal Departinent throughout the empire has its own dead- letter office, and the work of opening re- turned letters in each office has always been assigned to four men. The Berlin head office has now, however. appointed four women to do this work. The Central Postoffice at Washington, D.
