THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY , SEPTEMBER 17, 1901. TERRIBLE FATE OF COAL MINERS Terrific Gas Explosion Caves in Mouth of the Shaft. N One Hundred Men at Work in the Levels Are Be- yond Aill Aid. —_— COLORADO SPRINGS. Colo., Sept. 16.— A frightful gas explosion occurred at 5:30 9\"en|ng in the coal mine of the Colo- Fuel and Iron Company at Spring h, probably resulting in the death of © miners at the time engaged in . estimated to be 10 men. o The concussion of the explosion was ter- c and the entire entrance to the shaft badly caved in. Three men were rescued from near the entrance soon after the explosion, but hey were so frightfully mangled as to be recognizable. 41 The telephone line to Spring Gulch is gut of order, and a messenger was dis- to the Pocahontas mine, eight tant, where telephone communi- n was had with Glenwood, and a spe- clal Midiand train was ordered. All the :‘f‘r?oxs in Glenwood Springs were at once 1o the scene of the accident. No inite information has yet been recetved f‘vre as to the number of men killed, but it supposed that the men at this mine work until § o'clock except those who do contract work, and in that event it is ght that almost 100 men must have in the mine at the time of the ex- There is not one chance in a for any of them to escape with lives The following c have occurred JOH are known to n.

It is a queer mix-up of socialism, senti- mentalism and pathos, with occasional glints of genuine humor 1n the plot, and a lavish absence of anything approach- ing character drawing. Mr. Seabrooke has the only part of any weight in the play—a muiti-millionaire helplessly de- pendent on the push-the-button habit, who is cast on a desert island—and he is evidently not at hig best in it. The rest are cardboard figures merely, with about the same relation to life as tha ancient and respectable tintype, and the acting is on a par with the author's conceptions. The plot is sufficlently in- genious, and handled differently would have made a success, but the treatment is haphazard in the extreme and the hit of the evening was the coon song lugged in by the ears when Mr. Seabrooke wisely decided there was nothing better to do. After the hopeless muddle of the first act the second flops unexpectedly into a mildly humorous scene and the audience hoped for better things. But the third act, where the heroine, attired in dodo birds and a Parisian cut of a Samoan bark toilet, with a similar inspiration to Mr. _Seabrooke's, is persuaded into a timid cakewalk, effectively disposed of any expectations of that kind and the impatient ones who did not leave after the second act found their way out then. One caught a glimpse of what Mr. Sea- brooke can do when he is not trying to play muiti-millionaires, and one wished him, for his own sake, 'safe in the bosom of the Orpheum, where he belongs. He has the pleasantest voice in a song, and if he would but yleld to his own inclina- tion and sing some more, it would be bet- ter for the play. Lynn Pratt, in his sup- Leighton Leigh, Helen Gladstone and Isabelle Evesson are | also much better than their parts. 'UISARD. Orpheum. The Orpheum, as usual, was crowded to its utmost capacity last night, and every number on the new programme was heartily applauded.

Those holding tickets for last Saturday's matinee and for Thursday evening next are requested them as_ early as possible. a rarely heard Verdl opera, a in the fine name part, is one of next week's attraction: Grand Opera-House. Joseph Haworth gives the wily Cardinal Prime Minister a very flattening imper- sonation, but one in accord with Bulwer's estimate of the statesman priest. The well-known lines receive full justice at his hands, although his interpretation dif- fers in many particulars from that of the old and fondly remembered Richelieus that bave trod the boards before. But be that as it may, Mr. Haworth’s per- formance was a very satisfying one, and was thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated by an audience, critical, it is true, but not cold, as was evidenced' by the warm ap- plause bestowed upon Mr. Haworth and Florence Stone, whose Julie de Mortimar was all_that could be desired. The play affords Mr. Haworth the opportunity that he makes the most of, and that enables him to give the San Francisco public a taste of his real quality. The piece 1s splendidly scened and costumed, and the setting of the gardens of the Louvre in the fourth ‘act are especially applauded and admired. The star is to be congratu- lated upon the support given him by Her- schell Mayall, whose De Mauprat is virile and soldierly, as the author intended that it should be. Mr. Mayall divided the hon- ors with Mr. Haworth and Miss Stone and well earned them. Harry Plimmer's De Baradas may be criticized on the score of being a little too dramatic, but that fault is preferable to the opposite ex- treme, and when we can't get what we want on the stage we are thankful for the next best. Richelieu is a success, abounding in clean, honest work, and de- serves the best recéption that the theater- going public can bestow. Central. “A Volce From the Wilderness” has undergone quite a change and for the better. The pruning knife has been uged and the powerful Biblical drama is given with greater force. Last night Howard Scott, the popular actor, portrayed the art of Herod. He displayed great ability in this most difficult part and was given many curtain calls for his' zlever work. The ‘second act was cut down in thus saving iwelve minutes. The ing act has been completely changed by the stage manager, and as a result runs more smoothly and the climax at the end of {he act is more stirring than before. The last act is full of life and color. The streets of Jerusalem are shown, and the effect {s beautiful. The scenery in this expensive production is admirably paint- | second week at the Alcazar Theater last | Lo ed and does credit to the artists who per- | formed the task. | A large audience enjoyed the production | last night and the sale of seats is an as- surance to the management that the at- tendance will be very big the remainder of the week. This magnificent production will be taken across the continent and produced in New York. Manager Fred Belasco goes East to-morrow night with this end in view. Fischer’s Concert House. Von Suppe's “Beautiful Galatea™ scored a great success at Fischer's Concert-house last night. It was splendidly sung by | competent artists. The Bernards, sketch artists, were immensely amusing; the Gagnoux, unusually artistic jugglers, per- formed remarkable feats. Mae Tunison’s soprano_solos were applauded to the echo. Dilges, an aerial gymnast, rised “the large audience and Billy | night, a black-face comedian, and Mabel Martin, balladist, completed a most satis- | factory programme. Alcazar. Shakespeare's delightful comedy, “The | Taming of the Shrew,” 'commenced its night to a crowded house.

BOOMING CANNON WELCOME THEM The Duke and Duchess of York Arrive at Qu_ebec. French Frigates at Anchor in the Port Fire a Royal Salute. O G QUEBEC, Sept. 16.—Amid the booming of cannon and the whistling of hundreds of the steam vessels the Royal High- nesses, the Duke and Duchess of York, arrived here on schedule time to-day on board H. M. S. Ophir. The arrival of their Royal Highnesses was witnessed by tl_’lle largest crowd that was ever in this city. As the Ophir and escort arrived in port a royal salute was fired from the fort and one of the French frigates in port and also from the citadel. Immediately after the salute the Ophir and all the frigates half-masted the stars and stripes out of respect to the deceased President of the United States. At 10;80 o'clock Lord Minto, Governor General of Canada, and Sir Wilfrid Lau- rier, Premier of Canada, boarded the Ophir and had a short interview with the Duke of Cornwall ard York. On their return to shore a salute was fired from the citadel. The following telegrams of .sympathy were sent by Lord Minto, Governor Gen- eral of Canada, upon his arrival here: ! To Colonel Roosevelt, President of the United States: My deepest sympathy with people of the United States in this terrible sor- Tow which has fallen upon them. . MINTO. To the Secretary of State. of the United States: The announcement of the death of the President has created deepest sorrow here. Please accept our heartfelt sympathy in_your heavy loss. MIN To Mrs. McKinley, Buffalo: Please accept my deevest and heartfelt sympathy at the cruel blow that has fallen on you. MINTO. CHILD FALLS FIFTY FEET AND ESCAPES UNSCATHED Strikes on the Shoulders of a Man, ‘Who Is Temporarily Laid Up for Repairs. SANTA ROSA, Scpt. 16.—A peculiar ac- cldent occurred hecre to-day and that it did not terminate fatally is little less than miraculous. Mary, the six-year-old granddaughter of Mrs. Littleton, who re- | sides in the Hopper block, found her way to the roof of the building and attempted to walk across a skylight. She fell through the glass and down the light- well, a distance of fifty feet, landing in the harness-room of a livery stable below and directly on the shoulders of Oliver Cottrell, who was washing harness. The child escaped with very slight bruises, Cottrell is laid up for repairs, but will recover.
