Then they went back | to the sick room to tell of the terrible struggle for life they had just witnessed. It did not occur to them that under their very eyes a more terrible, more pathetic struggle was going on daily. There can be nothing more pitiful than - the struggle the consumptive makes against disease. The greatest | belp in this struggle is gained by the | use of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Dis- covery. It cures obstinate coughs, weak and bleeding lungs, - emaciation, and other ailments which if neglected or unskiilfully treated find a fatal termina- tion in consumption.

But there is climax after climax—more than wisely be—wherein Miss Allen liam Pascoe, and is a manly and pleasant conception without being par- ticularly strong. W. E. Bonney, who is the King Philip, is one of the bést,_play- ers in the company. He presents #n ad- mirably realistic portrait of the plotting monarch, full of power and dignity. It is a case of complete fdentity - With - the character, and adds tremendously to the mosphere of the plays “An ‘exeellent sketch of the court jester is done by Arthur T. Hoyt, whose work is a, gem in ‘Walter Hitcheock s ‘a most cardinal, and J. H. Benrimo magnificence as Dolores” stern unchurchly lacks parent. The women of the company are only impertant in two instances—MissAdelaide Prince as the highborn adventuress, Prin- cess Eboli, and Adelaide Warren as Don- na Inez, the sister of Dolores. Both are adequate. Miss Princé shows consider- able cleverness as the scheming Princess, and without disdaining to ‘sound the melodramatic accent that the part large- ly demands. cient unto her part, making a touching and effective picture of the blind girl. The remainder of the cast is acceptably filled, and “In the Palace of the King” is booked for success. A large house, gowned in its best, greeted the play last night, and testified by ample applause its pleasure in the production. Orpheum. Kelly and Violette display some stun- ning costumes in their act this week at the Orpheum, and they are gaining in pépularity at every appearance. They are sweet singers and the vaudeville yell has not.afflicted them. They are as good in _coon songs as in the non-syncopated ballad and well earn the recails that are forced vpon them. Josephine Sabel has a_way of her own that takes the house. She is full ofglife. The women of the Da Coma family are clever as the men and do ‘several tunds” that are hair raisers. Adelina Roatiino warbles like a real cantatrice and sings “Coming Through the Rye” in a very fetching way. The great cyele whirl, the Faust tric, the trained dogs, Jordan and Crouch and Amerfcan’ biograph are up to the bridge across the St. Lawrence at Mon- treal, shown on the biograph, is especial- iy interesting. California. Lovers of the romantic drama should not miss the opportunity of witnessing *“The Pride of Jennico,” which is the of- fering this week at the California Thea- ter. The dramatization of the famous novel of the same name retains the prin- cipal incidents of the fiction and affords the actors every opportunity for spirited | worlk. Phe company presenting “The Pride of Jennico,” while it has some’ weak mem- bers, does‘credit to the play, and the ! audience last evening was enthusiastic in | lavishing applause. The story of love and {vittainy" is well portrayed and the human | emotions are skillfully played upon. (. The honors of the production are shared l)){ Wallace Wofsley as Basil Jennico and iss Frances Neilson as the Princess of Dornheim. “The balance -6f the cast is very acceptable and the mounting of the play is realistic. | @ Tivoli. | *“The Ameer” as presented at the Tivo. Miss “Warren, also, s suffi- | & Is one of the cleverest performances that has been seen at the theaters here in some time. The cast is made up of-old Tivoll favorites, and there is not one of the per- formers that is not up to the mark set by the admirers of comic_opera who fre- quent the house. Ferris Hartman’s Ameer is very funny, and_ his efforts are ably seconded by Edward Webb, who appears 3!cclnflunally as Crackasmile, the court ester. Harry Cashman as Heezaburd, lord high chamberlain to the Ameer, plays his part | cleverly and gets as much humor out of his lines as is possible. Little but praise can be given to Harold Gordan, the Tivo- I’'s new tenor. He has a clear, sweet voice and a good stage presence. John Cun- ningham as Blakjak is a favorite, partic- ularly when his part gives him a chanece to_exercise his splendid barytone volice, Frances Graham, Annie Myers and An- na Lichter still hold the Tivoll audience as in past seasons, and the work of the chor- us, particularly in the second act, is worthy of praise. Grand Opera-House. The opening night of “Jim the Penman"” at the Grand Opera-house was very suc- cessful. The audience was unusually large and enthusiastic, and the excellent play was pleasingly rendered. Jim the Penman is the police name for a forger whose crimes have extended over two continents. He has won a fortune for himself and accomplices by his clever work-and stolen the affections and hand of the fiancee of one of his boyhood friends. A brilliant detective, who is the leading character of the play, finally dis- covers his Tascality. His wife also learns of the trick by which she was won through a comparison of letters. 3 forger sets things as mearly right as pos- sible and is prepared to take the conse- quences of his misdeeds when he dies of heart failure. The play is replete with thrilling situa- tions and applause is frequent. Edwin Arden as the detective leaves liftle to be desired. His work is admirable and shows that his reputation is justly won. Her- schel Mayall as the forger and Laura Nel- son Hall as his wife appear to good ad- vantage. ‘Lillian Albertson has a difficult part, which she renders very creditably. Gardner Crane as the chief victim of the forger’s wiles is also much in popular fa- vor. The rest of the cast furnishes excel- lent support for the leaders. Alcazar. Joaquin Miller’s powerful play, ‘“The Danites,” was revived at the Alcazar Theater last night. The sucoess it achieved with McKee Rankin and his clever wife in the leading roles has never left it and its representation of life in the mining camps in the Sierras during ‘the days of *49 will always appeal strongly to the people of the golden West. The production of the stock company last night was most creditable in_ every respect. The parts were evenly balanced dnd the result was apparent in the curtain calls after the close of each act. M. L. Alsop as Sandy McGee, a typical miner of the early days, looked the part to perfec- tion and gave a forceful and intelligent portrayal. George Osbourne as: Charles Godfrey, the parson, achieved a marked success, Frank Bacon gave a lfelike representa- tion of the Judge who “‘flourished in this glorious climate of California,” and Henry Shumer, Carlyle Moore, Howard Scott, Paul Gerson, Royal Dana Tracy and Jack Morris were good in their respective parts. on Convere was very effective as Nancy Williams, who posed as “Billy Piper,” the boy miner, and aroused the sympathies of the audience. % Margaret Wycherley was attractive as Hulda Brown, the school teacher, and Marle Howe and, Georgie Woodthorpe were excellent as Captain To e and Bunker Hill, respectively. ~Little Ollié Cooper was Georgle and played the part intelligently. The play is well staged. “Master and’ Man,” a strong five-act melodrama, was presented at the Central Theater last night. The plece is one of FEBRUARY 4, 1902. BIG PERCENTAGE [CONLEY FIRST ON HIGH CHANCELLOR OFFERED BOXERS Twentieth Century Club to Bid for Champion- ship Fight. Offers 80 Per Cent of Receipts for Jeffries and Fitz- simmons. The Twentietlr Century Club will enter competition to secure the ncxt henvy- weight championship fight. It will reor- ganize to-day with a new board of direc- tors and will be piloted over the rough places by “Jack” Gleason. Jimmy Coffroth, ex-secretary of the Twentieth Century Club, but now affiliat- ed with the Yosemite Club, yesterday turned over to Gleason all the stock in the former club. As soon as Gleason came into possession of this stock he no- tifled certain people and was authorized to telegraph East and offer Fitzsimmons and Jeffries 80 per cent if they would bat- tle before his club. This is in opposition to_the Yosemite Club's bid. Gleason states he will apply immediate- Iy for a new license. Root Going Home. Lou Houseman, the Chicago journalist, who is managing. Jack Root, will leave to-day for the Windy City. He will in all probability be accompanied by Root, who is homesick and wants to see his mother, who is very ill. Houseman stated last night that he was willing to bind another | match between his man and Gardner. He says, however, that he will wager $25 that Alec Greggains will not bet $2500 to bring about & second meeting. He has invited Greggains to post the money to bind a match and he will bring Root here in two months to again fight Gardner. The stories published that the fight be- tween Root and Gardner was a fake have | been dissipated by the n.anly statement | Gardner made to the press that he not only bet on himself, but fouled uninten- tlonally. George swears that the blow he received under one eye only aggravated one he was handed by Dave Barry while training for battle, and that after his eye ¢losed he fought wildly. Britt Is in Training. Jimmy Britt, the clever amateur light- welght champlion, has gone into active training for his coming bout with Toby | Irwin, the “pride of Telegraph Hill™ Britt will prepare at Croll's Gardens, Ala- meda. He will be looked after by Curtis | Richardson, a bosom friend, and a_clever boxer himself. Billy Leonard and Jack Capeliss will box with Britt during his training. Irwin is at work at the Ter- minal, which is at the end of the Haight- street car line. The men have posted $100 each to weigh in at 133 pounds at 6 o’clock the night of their contest. They are to battle fifteen rounds under the auspices of the Acme Athletic Club on the evening of February 18, The preliminaries to this battle will probably be between Frank George and Gene Young and “Young” Gibbs and ““Meddls” Dukelow. Thurston and Neill. “Duteh’” Thurston, who is to box Neill before the Reliance Club on the 14th inst., went into graining at Larkspur yes- terday. Thurstd®'s interests are being looked after by “‘Fatty” Blodes. The lat- ter deposited §$100 with Harry Corbett last night as a forfeit if his man does not live up to the articles of agreement. Nelill is to battle in Los Angeles within a week and will then come to this city to prepare for his contest. 'This will be the second meeting between Neill and Thurston. They fought last Fourth of July and the bout was declared a draw. JEFFRIES NOT SATISFIED WITH THE TERMS OFFERED Promptly Refuses to Make a Match on the Conditions Accepted by Fitzsimmons. NEW YORK, Feb. 3.—Expectations of an immediate match between Jim Jeffries and Bob Fitzsimmons were shattered to- day, when Jeffries and Jim Kennedy, acting for the Yosemite Athletic Club of San Francisco, talked matters over in a newspaper office. Jeffries promptly refused to make a match on the terms accepted by Fitzsim- mons, and there the matter rests for the present. Kennedy's offer, which Fitzsim- mons agreed to, was an equal division of the gross receipts und picture privileges between the fighters and the club, each to_take one-third. Jeffries has communicated with Billy Delaney, his manager, who is now .in San Francisco looking over the ground. Jef- fries’ future actions regarding a match with Fitzsimmons will be Jargely guided | by what Delaney may suggest. Racing at New Orleans.

LOUIS, Feb. 5.—In a circular issued to- day by General Manager Russell Harding of the Missouri Pacific -Company, D. Hardy is ap- pointed general superintendent of that system, vice H. G. Clark, resigned. @ ittt i @ the best that has been put on at the popular playhouse for some time. James Corrigan, as Humpy Logan, was particu- larly clever: George Webster, Hallet Thompson, Hdwin P. Emery, Ernest How- ¢ll, Stanley Ross and William Blackmore did their ability full justice in their va. rious roles, and Miss Annette Marshall ‘:&t}_klhrguret Marshall also did good Chutes. The Chutes has another strong bill of | novelties this week. The Nambas, Japan- ese jugglers, perform some remarkable feats in their line; Alf Holt, the whistling comedian, also does a clever turn; Loraine and Howell present a laughable sketch, introducing their performing bulldog; Wwho does a clever boxing act. Other good numbers are Thomas Armand, descriptive Vocalist; Maxie Mitchell, in coon songs, and Nellie Montgomery, the favorite bal- ladist. A series of new moving pictures concludes the bill. Al HINGS seem to be coming ‘Long- shot” Conley’s way again, just as they did before he became hump- backed and increased the circum- ference of his biceps an inch and a quarter beating the bass drum with a one-night-stand, real Georgla minstrel show. At Oakland yesterday the colored rider had the mount on High Chancellor in the two-year-old event, an Odd Fellow colt, owned by Chinn & Forsythe. There were only five starters, and from 20 the | 0dds against the youngster gradually soared to 60 to 1, the bulk of the smart coin going in on Barney Schreiber’s Hud- son, the 7 to 5 favorite. The latter lacked | the speed to win, and in a rattling drive Bullman on Adirondack lost the decision by a nose to Conley, astride High Chan- cellor. The books were not hurt by the | outsider’s victory, as most of the money bet was played for the show only. The track was ankle deep with mud, and | only members of the webfoot brigade re- ceived any attention. With two excep- tions speculators met with marked suc- cess in picking the first horse. The at- tendance was exceptionally large for a card that presented no special features. With two or three dangerous ones scratched it looked as if Hilary, with Bullman up, held safe the other starters in the opening sprint, and the gelding closed a 2 to 1 favorite. At the start the first choice and Young Morello opened a big gap over the field and had the race to themselves, The latter stayed best, win- ning ridden out by a half-length. Ulloa finished third. Kickumbob, a mild favorite in ths betting, piloted by O'Connor, beat a very common assortment in the mile and one hundred yard selling race. Fridolin, a light weight, was indulged with the léad for two-thirds of the route, when O’Con- | nor picked up the running with the first choice and in a drive downed the light- weighted pacemaker only a head. Nilgar ran third. Green Morris’ mudlark Duckoy made short work of his field in the mile selling event. A 3 to 6 favorite at post time, O’Connor let the Brutus gelding go out in front, and he won galloping. Jim Hale tired chasing the leader, losing the place to Commissioner Forster. Never partial to much weight, Decoy fell by the wayside in the second mile and | one hundred yard run, after closing an 8 to 5 favorite.” He led 'Diderot for about half a mile, then, calling for his hat and overshoes, Diderot, with Lee Jackson in the saddle, went on, scoring at the wire by more than a length from Constable. The last named three-year-old closed strong, and with more Iuck at the start might have been first. Show honors went to_Sunello. The promising candidates were scratched from the closing event, which left Scorpio to go to the barrier a 2 to & chance. Harry Stover’s fast sprinter led all the way, but, tiring perceptibly as the wire was approached, only defeated True Blue half a length. Captivate took third place from Maresa. Track Notes. O’Connor and Jackson each piloted two winners. “Subscriber” is informed that Kenil~ worth and Waring did not run a match race here last winter. ‘Neither were any horses raced at Tanforan or Oakland en tered in the name of John J.

The | second round was full of wild swings, | neither man doing any damage. In the | next round Childs began playing for | Hanrahan's stomach, and was more suc- | cessful at this style of fighting. On sev- eral occasions he landed on the New Yorker’s abdomen without a return. As the round progressed Hanrahan became wilder than ever in his delivery and Childs tried for a knockout. He missed Hanrahan's jaw and the latter fell to clinching. Childs was the stronger and shook off Hanrahan with ease and reached his stomach with a right punch that made Hanrahan groan. ‘When they came together in the fourth breakaway Childs shoved a straight left into Hanrahan's stomach. The blow doubled Hanrahan up and as his head dropped forward the colored man brought his right square on the jaw. Haarahan fell flat on his back, and after being | counted out his seconds carried him to his corner, where they worked over him for fully ten minutes before he was able to walk to his dressing-room.
