Orpheum Has a Splendid Show and Other Houses Offer Good Bills. g “La Favorita” the first appearance of | Agostini, the Tivoll's new tenor, and a very good cast generally, drew a most ap- preciative and sizable audience to the lit- tle opera-house on Eddy street last night. “La Favorita” is one of the least hack- neyed of the older operas, and one of the most tuneful and might better be heard more frequently, in place of some of the later operas that campare with it neither in musical nor dramatic interest. Last night’s performance was not all it might have been, though the principals were all in very good form. Some of the cho- rus work was decidedly uncertain, though much of it was very good, and the ensem. ble generally will be better to-morrow evening. -4 Favorita” does not sing itself, like *‘Aida” and more familiar, if more difficult, operas, and needs, there- fore, even fuller rehearsal. To-morrow evening, then, the work will be surer, and with Mr. Steindorff’s cleverly handled or- chestra, “La Favorita” will heard. Agostini has at once established himself as perhaps the best tenor of his kind | since Fernando Michelena sang Romeo at the Tivol and though ver night, showed himself v nervous last ssessed of a D | smooth, powerful tenor, admirably culti- | vated, and of superb athletic timbre. He of course sang the part of Ferdinand and was sufficient, from the dramatic well as vocal standpoint. Collamarini appeared as Leonora de Guzman, and | sang her part with characteristic sweet- ess and abandon. Her duet with Fer- rari—Alphonso—was charmingly sung, though I have heard her in better voice. Signor Dado was cast as Baldassare, and his fine bass and good stage presence made a_very effective figure of the old monk. Ferrari as the King was Ferrari, with perhaps a little less vibrato than usual in his valuable voice, and Sannie Kruger is vocally inadequate in the part of Inez. To-night “Otello” will be given, with the new soprano, Linda Montanari, as Desdemona, Salassa in his famous role as Iago, and Castellano as Otello, one of the best efforts of this conscientious singer. BLANCHE RTINGTON. Alcazar. There was a crowded house at the Alea- zar last evening that split its gloves and cracked its voice applauding Charlotte new play, “Silver-Mounted and shouting ‘‘Author, au- thor!” At the end of the third act Miss Thomp- £on came before the curtain, murmured a few words of thanks and then, pushing Miss Roberts to the front, lookéd on ap- provingly while the charming little act- ress neay}y expressed what the authoress ‘was too nervous to say. There is nothing startlingly new in Mi Thompson’s play as far as the situations go. There is a flower dance, however, or- iginal and beautiful, that tells with charming rhythm the story of life, a tale of happiness, love and destruction. While in some parts of the play the dialogu drags, there are some smart lines smart women that brighten the situa- tions. There were the usual waits and drags of the premiere, but by to-night the play will probably run more smoothl Miss Roberts has cast the play to the fu strength of her company. In the role of Laura Latimer the star finds a congenial part. Agnes Rankin is a gentle Mary Latimer and Marie Howe a smart Mr: Terhune. Georgie Cooper rather overd Miss Pendraon and Edith Angus was trifie too youthful for the awful M Tewksbu White Whittlesey as Gordon Crevelt, a villain who reforms in the last | act, i played with taste and discretion George Webster was a painstaking Lati- mer. The play is well mounted and should do a good week's busine The hearts of the patrons of the Cen- tral Theater overflowed with delight last night at the exciting and tense situations | of the melodrama, Robbery.” The applause at the fall ““The Great Diamond of the curtain of each act was deafening | and it bad to be raised again and again. Several times the “‘gods” fairly shrieked with delight, and Robert Cummings. who played the part of Brummage, the etec- tive, met with repeated ovations. He de- served the showers of applause, as he en- acted the part with rare judgment and skill. James Corrigan as Senator Me- piece of character work, the interpreta- tion being exceedingly lifelike and eff tive. Howard Scott as Dr. Livingstol Willard Blackmore as Bulford, Stanle Ross as Marino and Edwin T. Emery Kennett acquitted themselves well. Juliet Crosby as Mrs. Bulford showed her ver- satility by playing the part of the “ladv villain” with marked ability, and in the final act, when the diamonds she wore at McSorker’s ball exposed her villainy, she was particularly effective. Georgle Wood- thorpe made an inimitable Mrs. O’Geogan and Mabel Pennock as Mary Lavelot and Lillian Elliott as Mother Rosenbaum did | excellent work. The piece is magnificent- Iy staged, the Hoffman House Cafe scene being especially rich. Grand Opera House. Henry Arthur Jones' comedy, “The Liars,” was presented last evening by the Frawley company before a large audience that keenly enjoved the charming play. The honors of the evening were won by E. J. Morgan in his original role of Ed- ward Faulkner, who in his blind love for a married woman is ready to sacrifice ali. Morgan's intense acting carried the audi- ence away and he was accorded well de- served plaudits. Frawley essayed the role of Sir Christopher Deering, but his rendi- tion of the role was colorless when con- trasted with the superb work of Morgan. Mary Van Buren was cast for Lady Jes- sica, and only served to revive the de- lightful memories of Margaret Anglin in the character. Where Miss Anglin was sweetly sympathetic and natural Miss Van Buren is theatrical. Harrington Rey- nolds was altogether wildly melodramatic in the role of Lady Jessica’'s spouse. The balance of the cast was hardly up to the requirements of the play. They lacked in the finesse that is characteristic of aris- tocratic English society. Orpheum. The best show that has ever been put upon the Orpheum stage is running this week. That is saying a good deal for th> Orpheum, but nevertheless it is a fact. Every number is a gem; every performer | a star. The newcomers are just as good as the holdovers and the combination is singularly happy this time. Charles H. Bradshaw and his clever company in the mother-in-law comedy keep the house in a continuous cascade of laughter. Re- marc and Riley, grotesque acrobats, do an act that is as novel as it is bloodcurd- ling. The holdovers, Hill apd Silviany, the stetuesque Alexandra Dagmar, Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Kelcy, the Standard Quartet, the Molasso-Salvaggl troupe and Os- car P. Sisson, Ester Wallace and com- pany make up an entertainment that will not be equaled in many and many a moon. Columbia. “Mrs. Dane’s Detence” began its second week at the Columbia Theater last even- ing. There was the usual large attend- ance. Miss Anglin received numerous cur- tain_calls for her excellent acting of the leading part. There will be a matinee on Saturday and the last performance of the play will be given on Saturday evening.

A matrimonial tangle of years' standing was unsnarled by Judge Ellsworth this morning when he decided that the sup- posed widow of the late James Johnson was entitled to keep property sued for by the Public Administrator, on the ground that she was never legally married to the deceased. Mrs. Johnson—or, as she is now entitled to call herself, Mrs. Helen A. Edgar— testified that she supposed herself to be the legal wife of Johnson until in 1897, when she learned that the supposed wife of Rev. B. F. Huddelson, then president of the American Protective Assoclation, was adjudged to be Mrs. James A. John- son. She discovered that this first wife had been married by her supposed hus- band in 1872 and had been abandoned by him. Mrs. Johnson No. 1 married Hud- delson in 1885, and in 1897 sued him for maintenance, which was denied her on the ground that her second marriage was void as she had never been released from the first one. . The Public Administrator sued Mrs. Fdgar for $600, which he clalmed as com- munity property, belonging jointly to her- self and Johnson. George N, Tyler, the Alameda florist, whase wife is suing him for a divorce, has employed an attorney to defend the suit. He denfes the accusations of cruelty brought in Mrs. Tyler's complaint.

FALL RIVER, Mass., Aug. 12.—The Fall | River cotton manufacturers this evening | at a meeting for the purpose of discussing the work of reduction unanimously voted to reduce wages to a basis of 17 cents for weaving, the reduction to go into effect September 3.

R < Thought to Have Been Iden- tifled Through Article in The Call BERKELEY, Aug. 12—Word has been received from Lowden Ranch, Trinity County, which will probably solve the mystery of the disappearance of Henry Pearson, who dropped out of sight in ‘West Berkeley three weeks ago to-day. A man answering Pearson's description commenced work on the ranch there on August 1, about the time it would have taken the missing man to have reached that place. He gave his name as Henary Peterson and his home as San Francisco, but has given no information regarding his past life. Mrs. Pearson, after reading the descrip- tion of the ‘“Peterson” in Trinity county, furnished her by The Call, declared the man was undoubtedly her husband. He is working with a friend, N. Andersonm, and Mrs. Pearson says that she knew he had an acquaintance by that name. She has communcated with the managers at Lowden and Is awaiting an answer. Pearson, at the time of his disappear- ance, was residing at $00 Cortland ave- nue, San Francisco. He left home Sun- day. July 21, taking with him all of the money there was in the house, about $100, four children in destitute circumstances. The next morning he appeared in West Berkeley and borrowed $25 from his brother-in- law, I. A. Crowther. Police and private detectives have been working on the case, but to no-avail. An article published in The Call of July 30 giving a picture and description of Pearson has led to the coupling of the Trinity county ‘“Peter- gon” with the missing man.

Research has proved that the human mind is at its fullest power between the ages of 40 and 60. There are, of course, exceptions to the rule, such as Byron, the young Napoleon and Alexander. but tak- ing it “full and by"” the prime age of the mind of man is between 40 and 60. Swift was 43 when he wrote “Gulliver's Trav- els,” and John Stuart Mill 58 when his essay on “Utilitarianism’™ was published, although his “Liberty” was written three years before. When ‘“Waverley” came out Sir Walter Scott was 44 years old, and nearly all of those tales which have made his lasting fame as a novelist were writ- ten after he was 46. Milton’s genius made its loftiest flignts when he was between 54 and 59. It was between those years that he wrote “Paradise Lost.” *“The Task™ and “John Gilpin” were written when Cowper was over 50, and Defoe was within two years of 60 when he wrote ‘“Robinson Crusoe.” Of all the writings of Thomas Hood “The Song of the Shirt” and “The Bridge of Sighs” are the best known and will live the longest. Hood wrote those two poems at the age, of 4. Darwin wrote his “Origin of Species’ when he was 50, and was 62 when he gave to the world his “Descent of Man.” Long- fellow wrote “Hiawatha" at 48, and Oliver ‘Wendell Holmes gave us “Songs in Many Keys” when he had passed his fifty-fifth birthday.—Chicago Journal.
