MERRY GOMED! 1T CALIFORN Bill at the Orpheum Con- tains Many Excellent Numbers. » A Entertaining Plays Are on This Week at All the Theaters. It was a big audience that packed the California last night to laugh over the | funny complications of ““A Stranger in a Strange Land.” Fun reigned from the | rise to the fall of the curtain, at times the laughter becoming so vociferous as to delay the action on the stage. It is | without doubt as good a farce as we have iyet had here, and the presenting com- | pany is exceptionally clever. An American Indian forms a conspicu- | ous feature of ‘“‘A Stranger in a Strange Land.” There is a real Indian and ‘two bogus ones, and the complications that | arise from mistaken identity are intense- ly ludicrous. The fun is so_ clean and | wholesome that one cannot fail to _enjoy this farce from-.first to last. William Friend, who has to do all the lying in the farce, is very dexterious in the art, and manages to wiggle out of the tight- est corners with a smoothness that is as- tonishing. Charles Drake is very unctuous in the part of the old uncle who is always get- ting into scrapes, and F. J. Donnelly as the real Indian gives a characterization that is positively startling. The parts are all well sustained, and the entire action goes with a swiftness that fs only at- tained through long familiarity with the different roles. Big business should be the rule this week at the California. Next Sunday_ night 8. Miller Kent fol- lows In Clyde Fitch's famous comedy ‘‘A Cowboy and a Lady,” which has never been out to th- coast b.e(ore. There is a good show at the Orpheum | this week. The Dumond Parisian Min- strels is about as funny a combination as has appeared here in some time. There are three in the troupe“and each one is a clever musiclan. 7They sing and per- form on several stringed instruments and while dolng so amuse the audience by their faclal contortions. Their appear- jance on the stage is a signal for great { avplause, as their makeups are most gro- | tesque. Mlle, Taglione is a good dancer and her | terpsichorean efforts are enhanced by at- “lrhcfl\'e stage settings. The turn of Wer- | den and Shepherd, iilustrated song voc :l- ists, met with a hearty reception. The pictures illustrating the songs sung are { wonderful reproductions. Andy wis, | tue ““Cocaine Fiend,” is still on the bill |and is as popular as ever. The Kauf- | manns and Goleman’s trained dogs and | cats_are still favorites of the audience. | La Belle Tortajada, vocalist and dancer, | did not appear last night, owing to sud- den fllness. She will appear to-night. L S At the Columbia Theater this evening the attraction will be the much-talked-of French farce from the Criterion Theater, New York, entitled “The Girl From Max- im's.” From all accounts it is a lively and laughable piece and well presented by | the company organized for its interpreta- | tion, which is headed by Lena Merville fsin the role of Praline. “The Girl From | Maxim’s” is from the pen of George Fey- | deau, author of the other clever farce, “The Gay Parisians.” Besides Miss Mer- | ville the company includes Florence Ger- ald, W. H. Turner, Joseph Allen, J. H. | Armstrong, Harry Dull and twenty oth- ers. The next attraction for the Colum- bia will be Jefferson de Angelis and a big musical organization in “A Royal Rogue.” | ¢ T4 @ | _ The sale of seats for the engagement of Miss Minnie Seligman at the Grand Op- | era-house opens this morning. It is ex- pected that this engagement will be one | of the most successful in the history ot | the theater. The first play to be present. | ed will be “The Crust of Soclety,” and the opening performance will be given Friday evening, December 6, There will | be the usual Saturday and Sunday mati- ne?ls and the same popular prices will pre- vail. sl The Alcazar Theater has an excellent attraction this week in Robert Stephens’ romantic drama, “An Enemy to the | King.” The drama takes for its presenta- | tion almost the whole resource of the Al- cazar’s strong company and will be ac- ceptably mounted and staged. Next week “Christopher Jr.” will be put on. wsiieoite Russian melodrama_ gives way to the home variety at the Central Theater this week, with the “Streets of New York’ as the current bill of fare. The cast will be up to the usual mark and the manage- ment advertises a realistic fire scene as a feature of the performance. They do that kind of thing most effectively at the favorite uptown house, and the drama al- together should prove a strong attraction. « e o At the Tivoll, with the clever young Pol- lards, ‘“The Geisha' will contihue to re- main’ the programme for this week. “The Gelsha has so far been the season’s hit with the Australian Opera Company. The plece is presented in most effective fashion and most of the alert youngsters have made individual hite. Little Daphne Pollard. aged 5 years, will be Wun Hi, the Chinaman, and is as clever as they make them all round. This is a show for children, though it is just as entertaining for their self-denving escorts. But no child should miss it. The Juvenile Opera Company remains but two weeks longer. R The sale of subscription seats for the series of three symphony concerts that are to be given by the San Francisco Symphony Boclety will open this morning at Sherman & Clay’s musi® store and will close on Saturday next. The single seat sale will open the following week. The first concert of the series will take place | on Friday afternoon, December 13, and the following concerts on the afternoons nf January 10 and 17. There is every indi- | cation of a large and substantial interest | being taken in this important musical event. H T Charity Martin has returned to Fischer’s Concert House and. will be one of the star attractions of the week’s bill. Others on the good list are: John Desmond; four Lerners: Blanche Reynold cier; Dunning snd Grimm: Oro. and Oro, and Hinrichs' orchestra. siier The Chutes has provided another strong hill of novelties for its patrons this week. New people ovening to-day are the Lockos, England’s celebrated bag punch- ers: Leando Bros.. comedv acrobats, and Maud_Frazer, Gotham’s favorite singing comedienne. 'The hold-overs are Leslie Bros.. musical artists: Levey and Parent, invenile singers and dancers. and Clinton Montgomery in fllustrated songs.

Mr. Mihran comes forward to fill this need of rug lovers with his fa- mous stock augmented by the arrival of delayed shipments, making in all the most stupendous collection ever exhip- ited, which he will offer at absolutel ‘- gitimate and unreserved auction sale to give the public a fair opportunity to buy rugs for holiday gifts at nominal figures, thus popularizing the good custom preva- lent in Eastern cities.

Accord- ing to mall advices from the Orient, Chi- nese officials are resorting to all kinds of means to raise money to assist in pay- ing the indemnity agreed upon by theé owers. Beside a gigantic lottery scheme, Iy Which more than $L000,000 is. myoived: half of which wiil go into the indemnity fund and half be given away in prizes, and which scheme has recelved the sanc- tion of the court, it is now proposed b,‘ Prince Ching to impose a head tax on all Chinese, whether residing within the llr‘n!u of the empire or in foreign coun- tries. Prince Ching’s plan, the court, is to send commissioners to all foreign countries to collect the tax from Chinese residents, claiming that, as they do not become citizens of other countries, they should assist in paying the indemn- ity. Prince Ching's project has ereated considerable dissat'sfaction in the south- ern provinces of the Chinese empire and is liable to result in serious disturbances. It is claimed that residents of the north- ern provinces were alone responsible for the Boxer movement and that they should he called upon to bear any ex- pense caused by their action. Chinése of the southern provinces were friends of the foreigners, and as most of the mer- chants in foreign countries are from the southern provinces, the movement on foot to resist the taxation for indemnity is rapidly gaining ground. Tt is said that the Chinese abroad will refuse to pay the proposed tax. Prince Ching, accordine to Chinese pa- pers, says that if they refuse the burden will fall upon their relatives in the southern provinces; that other oppressive measures will be enforced against them and tbat merchants abroad refusing to pay the proposed tax will not be allowed to return to their mother country and will be classified as traitors. According to the Manila Times, Fiske Warren of Boston. a_Filinino sympa- ihizer, who toured the Tinited States with Sixto Lopez. the Filipino cmissary, was held up by the United States commission upon his arrival at Manila, and. before he was allowed his I'berty, was made to hold up his right hand and swear thal he would refrain from any uttetance or action which would tend to incite resist- ance to his Government. Warren accom- panied Sixto Lopez as far as Honzkong. where Lapez remained. Befrre Warren left the steamer be was handed a copy of the act passed by the commission with reference tn Lopez, after which he came ashore under gnard and with but Jittle hesitation took the prescribed oath.

Graduate German Expert Opticlan, 1071% Market st., near Seventh, San Trancisco, HONOR MEMORY OF J. M. GLEAVES Masons Show Respect to Late Surveyor General. Hundreds of Friends of the Deceased Present at Obsequieg. Impressive to a degree were the Ma- sonic funeral rites held yesterday over the remains of James Malcolm Gleaves, United States Surveyor General, who died last Wednesday. The services were held at Mission Ma- sonic Temple, 2668 Mission street, under the auspices of Mission Lodge No. 169, of which: General Gleaves was a distin- guished member. The members of the lodge were present In large numbers, wearing the insignia of the order. Fifty brothers of the Scottish Rite Masons took part in the funeral services, dressed in the uniform of their rank. The Mission Masonic Temple was too small to accommodate the hundreds of friends of the deceased who desired to tender a last token of respect to the dead. ‘When the hall was filled crowds gathered at the entrance to the building, satisfled to get a glimpse of the flower bestrewn casket that held the body of their friend. The hearse which carried the body from an undertaking parlor was followed by carriages bearing the relatives of the de- ceased and the pallbearers. The proces- slon was met at the entrance to the Ma- sonic Hall by the Masonic fraternity and escorted into the lodgeroom. The casket was placed in the center of the room, while an organ softly played a funeral march. The impressive service of the Masonic fraternity was conducted by Master C. F. Libby of Mission Lodge No. 169. He was assisted by Senior Warden Willlam Ord- way, Junior Warden E. W, Tucker, Mar- shal Charles Janes, Steward Otto Stewart and Tyler James Parmalee. The eulogy was pronounced by Willliam 8. Jordan, who thrilled all present by his recital of the life of the deceased. At the close of the services the Masons marched in procession around the bier and depos- ited sprigs of evergreen on the coffin. The quartet of the lodge, composed of Alfred Wilkie, E. C. Boysen, Robert D. Burness and Alexander Mennice, ren- dered the hymn “Good Night” while the casket was taken from the lodgeroom to the waiting hearse. Preceded by the uniformed Scottish Rite Masons and the members of Mission Lodge No. 169 the cortege wended its way to the electric funeral car waiting at the corner of Twenty-third and uerrero streets. The body was escorted by tle following pallbearers: Dr. T. J. James, Dr. E. L. Howard, Frank N. Marston and David Stark, representing the Scottish Rite Masons; H. W. Thorp and J. W. Richards, of the Ohlo Soclety; Judge George H. Bahrs and Edwin Danforth, representing the Anclent Order of United Workmen, and Robert Allan and M. Jenessy of Mission Lodge No. 169, F. and A M The electric funeral ear conveyed the body and the mourners to Cypress Lawn Cemetery, where the remains were con- signed to their final resting place with ap- propriate Masonic rites. General Gleaves was 49 years old at the time of his death. He is survived by his widow and two sons. At a meeting of the board of directors of the California Petroleum Miners’ Asso- ciation held last Saturday morning, the following resolutions, which bear the sig- natures of M. H. de Young, president, and Dr. C. T. Deane, secretary, were unani- mounsly passed: Whereas, Death has suddenly and unexpect- edly entered our ranks and summoned to his long home our comrade and fellow director; therefore be it Resolved, That we feel deeply the loss we have sustained in the death of our beloved friend and co-laborer, General J. M. Gleaves. That we deem his death to be in the natu of a public loss to the city and State In whica he lived. That in him were united those steriing quali- ties that go to make the well rounded man and an unright citizen, and that his quick appre- hepsion of men and of business methods, his wide experience and sound judgment, and his love of truth and justice placed him in the first rank in all the business enterprises in which he was engaged. Resolved, That the board of directors of the California Petroleum Miners' Association, fully appreciating his noble character, his loving soclal nature, sincerely mourn his death, and that we ténder to the wife and children of our friend and comrade our deepest sympathy, and beg to assure them that we with them mourn for ““The touch of a vanished hand and the mound of a voice that is still” and that we will ever bear him in appreciative remem- brance. = Resolved, That the foregoing be’spread upon the minutes and a copy of these resolutions be cent to the family of our deceased friend.
