Since there has | { been something said about variety being | | the spice of life; no doubt it was imagined | that a little variety mixed up with a big | { potion of blood-rousing drama would | | | prove the more satisfying, and therefore |-| | the greater draw. |~ No one'could complain about the size of last night'’s house, and certainly those | who attended in support of so worthy an object could not find a complaint to level | at the performance, which was in_every | sense admirable. Edwin Arden received | evening next. the compliment of plenty of applause, and the company supporting him was egually appreciated. T olio the names of Swor and Hathaway, dancers and comedians; Gilbert and Gilmore, a vocal duo, and William and Edith Fletch- er in a German comedy skit called “A Social Visit.”” That the Eye and Ear Hospital free ward and clinic has been substantially benefited from the entertainment is an as- sured fact. The charitably disposed la- dies who have given up hours every day | for weeks to bring about the succes ul results of last evening are hence gratified. | - The Chrysanthemums are working dili- | gently for théir charity ball on Saturday One hundred invitations have already been recelved, which repre- sent $125 toward the support of the free bed in the incurable ward of the Chil- dren’'s Hospital. People who are ac- quainted with the earnest work of the Chrysanthemums in providing _the pepse of this bed from season to season are only too anxious to assidt in the good work by attending the ball.

SANTA BARBARA, Jan. 30.—Madame Lillian Nordica, the singer, will leave here in her private car for San Franeisco to- morrow. She is much improved in health. | She has had two days of uninterrupted rest, and on Tuesday evening will com- mence a three nights’ engagement in that city. From there she will continue on her tour. About two weeks ago Madame Nordica was severely bruilsed and shaken up in a railroad wreck in Georgia. Although her injuries pained her somewhat she contin- ued on her tour, filling all of her engage- { ments through the South. At Dallas, Tex., a week ago she suffered consider. ably from the effects. Then came her long Yrip from Texas to Los Angeles, where she sang Tuesday night, and to this city, where she suffered an atiack of alarming severity. Dr. H. L.

The way Salva-cea cures Piles, i ~ UNCLE SAM 15 AKED T0 D BOERS GovernmentApproached on the Subject by the Netherlands. Proposal Is Discussed by Min- ister Gevers, Secretary Hay and Lord Pauncefots. Should Great Britain and Boer Rep- resentatives Be Willing to Ac- cept, Anterica Would Use Good Offices. —_——— Special Dispatch to The Call. e, CALL BUREAU, 14068 G STREET, N. W., WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—The Government of the Netherlands has in- formally approached the United States Government with the understood purpose of securing its aid to induce Great Brit- ain to consent to treating with the Boers. The matter has been discussed by Secretary Hay with members ot the diplomatic corps, notably with Baron Gevers, Minister of Holland, and pre- sumably with Lord Pauncefote, the Brit- ish Embassador, but in no case has ‘the mattter ever progressed beyond ver- bal exchanges. Bbaron Gevers was at the State Lepartment to-day ana had a brief conversation with kay. In the talks between the Secretary ot State and the Minister of Holland neither official committed hig Government in auy way, | no suggestion or proposai veins reduced to wriung. Neither side has regarded these exchanges of views as officlal, al- though notes of the conversation may have been made, and with propriety, for the information of the Dutch Govern- ment and President Roosevelt. The attitude of the present administra- tion is similar to that of the administura- tion of McKinley. This Government is ad- | hering to the rule that in war between | civilized nations an offer of mediation cannot properly be made unless both parties to the conflict request it, or it is known that such offer will be favorably recelved. While McKinley was President he went as far as he deemed proper in suggesting to Great Britain that the United States Government would be glad to serve as mediator for the transmission of any message to the Boers. The re- sponse of Great Britain left no doubt of the purpose of that Government to con- duct the Boer war without outside dip- lomatic aid. Recently the Boer repre- sentatives in this country have made frequent appeals to the State Department to take some action to bring about a cessation of hostilities, but in view of the British Government’s attitude and the rule mentioned no further action has been taken, although it cannot be said that Secretary Hay has not discussed the subject privately with Lord Pauncefote. Should, however, the British Government and the authorized representatives of the Boers show any indication of being will- ing to accept the good offices of the United States President Roosevelt will act promptly. Suggested by the Netherlands. LONDON, Jan. 30.—Answering a ques- tion on the subject in the House of Com- mons to-day, the Government leader, A. J. Balfour, =aid that as the reply of the British Government to the.communica- | tion of the Government of the Nether- | lands on the subject of the South Afri- ! can_war would not reach The Hague un- til January 31, it was impossible for his | Majesty's Government to give the House | the papers this week. In the meanwhile the Assoclated Press | is able to confirm the statement that the Government of the Netherlands: suggest- | ed granting a safe conduct to a Dutch commission to be ‘appointed for the pur- pose of conferring with the fighting burghers and enlightening them as to the | real position of affairs. | PARIS, Jan. 30.—The Temps to-day prints a dispatch from The Hague, in which the correspondent says he learns { from a trustworthy source that tne re- cent journey of the Dutch Premier, Dr. Kuyper, to England prepared the way for peace negotlations in regard to South | Africa, which were begun with the con- sent of the British Government. He adds that the more rccent step taken by Hol- land was supported by some of the other governments. A correspondent was informed in offi- cial quarters to-day that so far as known Holland's action was quite spontaneous. France was not consulted and is | aware of the terms of the Dutch note. Doubt Concerning Kritsinger. LONDON, Jan. 30.—The report that Commandant Kritsinger, who was cap- tured by General French December 17, had been condemned to death is not con- rmed here. It was announced from South ‘Africa January 20 that Kritsinger's trial would begin this week, but nothing has since been heard of his case. The report of the Parllamentary com- mittee appointed to investigate the charges of bribery and corruption made by Sir John Blundell Maple (Conserva- tive) against the British officers who purchased army horses in Austria-Hun- gary censures Sir John for unjustifiable attacks on the integrity of the officers. At the same time, however, the commit- tee finds that an excessive price was pald, whereby horse dealers were enabled to divide a profit of about $15 on horses which cost the contractors £12 to £17. The committee also expresses surprise at the fact that the Government remount department took no steps to ascertain the the South African war had been in pro- gress for six months, thereby involving the country in a loss of £12,000 on a sin- gle contrac MONEY IS SUBSCRIBED FOR IRON WORKERS ILarge Meeting Held in San Jose, but Mayor Schmitz Is Not Present. SAN JOSE, Jan. 30.—Turn Verein Hall was crowded to-night by the working people and their friends, who turned out to ald in the benefit for the striking iron- workers of San Francisco that was given under the auspices of the Federated Trades Council and the Building Trades Council. Mayor Schmitz of San Francisco had promised to be present and deliver an ad- dress, but he failed lg?nppear and the au- dience was greatly dfsappointed. V. M. Trace of Palo Alto presided as chairman of the meeting and upon the stage as vice {rrenldenu were most of the prominent abor leaders of the city. The following message of regret at being absent was read from Mayor Schmitz: It is with great regret that I am unable to be present with you this evening. Complica- tions have arisen in the Justices' Clerk appoint- ment and the strenuous ovposition of the “push” makes it imperative that I remain in San Francisco to-night. My heart is with you in the movement and I wish you every sue- cess. My absence will, I am sure, be made up Dby other speakers and ‘devotees to' the cause of unionism. R. L. Wisler of San Francfsco, president of the Iron Trades Council, nng ‘Walter McArthur delivered addresses reviewing the labor situation in San Francisco, Harry Ryan of San Jose also spoke. At 10 o'clock dancing was taken up and the rest of the evening was spent in this man- ner.

SCHOONER DISAPPEARS AND T1ARINERS MARVE \La Gironde, Which Was Wrecked on the Southern Coast Late Last Year, Mysteriously Leaves Her Position on the Sands and Officers of the Cutter Bear Are Puzzled AN DIEGO, Jan. 30.—The topmast schooner La Gironde, which was wrecked on San Nicholas Island last October, is gone from the beach on which sho stranded and no one seems to know when, why or whither. Captain Tuttle of the revenue cutter Bear, who sailed from here a week ago for the purpose of taking a pull at the stranded vessel with the expectation that he would be able to get her off the beach and into deep water without any trouble, reports that when he reached the island there was no sign of her on the beach ;vhere he had left her only a few days be- ore. The captain, supposing that the steam MYSTERIOUS EXPLOSION STARTLES THE CITIZENS People of Santa Ama Find Railroad Platform Wrecked by Upheaval at Night. SANTA ANA, Jan. 30.—This city was startled to-night shortly after 9 o'clock by a terrific explosion. Many citizens started on a search for the cause and the Southern Pacific platform on_ Second street was found badly wrecked. Some explosive, the nature of which has not yet been learned, had been placed under the structure, and it was thrown about in a manner thaf indicated an unusually powerful force. About half an hour later another but lighter explosion occurred, this time in the woodpile of a local dealer, but with little damage., Monday night a water pipe was loaded with some powerful ex- plosive and discharged about midnight, causing a good deal of alarm. The offi- cers investigating the explosions have thus far been unable to get any clew to the perpetrators. Freight Cars Leave the Rails. REDDING, Jan. 3.—Owing to the turn- ing of a rail at the south edge of the town of Delta last night a heavily loaded car of the south-bound freight train left the track and was followed by three others, which piled up in confusion. No one was injured. Traffic was delayed ten hours. Special Dispatch to The Call. schooner Samoa, which was working on the La Gironde when he left them, had succeeded in getting her off, continued on his way to Santa Barbara and there learned that the Samca had not suc- ceeded. The only explanation Captain Tuttle can think of for the schooner’s disap- pearance is that the winds of a week ago piled up an extra big tide on the San Nicholas beach, and that the men left by the Samoa were able to float her. What became of her then no one pretends to guess. She might have gone to the bot- tom in the same rough weather which was instrumental in floating her. She has not been reported from any “place, but with the prevailing wind would have brought up at Redondo or Santa Monica before now. SACRAMENTO MOURNS FOR MRS M. E.

CHICAGO, Jan. 30.—Professor Charles 'W. Pearson of the Northwestern Univer~ sity, who recently created much comment by reason of his attacks on certain parts of the Bible, to-day caused surprise at the chapel exercises of the university by asking to make a statement. before the students. The occasion was the observ- agce of the day of prayer by the Ameri- can colleges. Just as the services were /| ending Professor Pearson arcse and, on being given permission to speak, briefly buried his head In his'hands a moment and then sald: This may be the last uma that I will have the opportunity of addressidg you on a sim- flar occasion. This is my reason for desiring to make a few remarks. I believe in Christ, I belleve in prayer and I believe in the power of the holy ghost. Anything I have done or said was for the benefit of the Christian re- liglon. I think that it has done some good. I do nat ,care to retract and I regret nothing I have said or written. The students at once took Professor Pearson’s meaning to be either that he would resign or that he was being dis- missed. But both he and members of the faculty said no stich action was contem- plated. Earthquake Breaks Mountain Peak. PORT TOWNSEND, Wash., Jan. 30.— According to a report reaching here tg- day an earthquake and landslide occurred in the Olympic mountains in the western portion of Jefferson County, just prier to the big storm of lasl week.
