But for the aforesaid momen- { tary flashes there is not an ounce of con- | viction in the whole conception. A worse actor would easily have made a better Romeo, with all the bend and weight of Morgan's personality and tem- perament pulling in the opposite dire tion. ‘Anything more curiously out of kéy would be difficult to imagine, anything more perfunctory, impossible. Sparks few for a moment during the killing of | Tybalt, but before that, at Mercutio’s | taking-off, the Romeo restraint reached an indifference . that was truly wonder- { ful. Once in the ballroom scene also, | Mr. Morgan appeared to rouse to a sense | of * the " romance of the situation, {and one rose to the bait, only to drop deeper into disappointment ~afterward. Fromi the unwillingness of the actor's clegant leanness to -fit itself into cloak and tights, to the refusal of his tense, taciturn modernity to lend itself to the leisurely and graceful extravagance of the part, Mr. Morgan's Romeo may be gaid to be almost a pattern misfit. His diction 4s as distinctly unclassic as his voice is beautiful—and that is saying not | 1ittle—and, altogether, it is up to the actor the famous query (slightly “Morgan, wherefore art thou to answer edited): Romeo?” Miss Fealy's Juliet wus}xerhaps a con- giderable excuse for the Morgan Romeo. By no stretch of imagination was it pos- sible to conceive of last night's Juliet be- ing even in stage lofe with the unlucky Montagu. The conception lacked from every side, in sympathy, in spontaneity, in truthfulness. It was unillumined by | even a glimpse of the Juliet spirit and technically stagy and insincere. The best work of the evening was done by Herschel Mayall as Mercutio, and Gil- bert Gardner, who gave a thoroughly happy sketch of Peter. Margaret Terry undertook with fair success the nurse’s role, and the rest of the cast filled in without distinction. The settings are of the handsomest ever seen in the city, and great credit is due thereupon, to the management. The first street scefie reminds one of the Grau pro- ductlons at their best, and other fine pic- tures are the garden and ballroom scenes. The play is given with the various pro- logues and with other usually omitted features, California. - TWO PROFESSIONALS NOW AP- | PEARING HERE AND AN ASPI- RANT FOR HISTRIONIC FAME. = ge | was heartily indorsed in the way of ap- | her solos in excellent | Joseph Fogarty made a very good Count | Ballenburg, | with Schwartzenbach.

Outside of a few trifling .discords in the rendering of certain of the parts, the play goes forward with a vim which absorbs the interest of the spectator. The plot is clear cut and works out logically. Neill as Captain Swift, a supposed Australian highwayman' who is In reality quite an estimable young man, is very good. Edythe Chapman in the strongly emétion- 2l role of the former bandit's unfortunate mother is, however, the leading light in “Captain Swift.” The others of the cast are all excellent and their work last night plause.

R iy Its Faculty Will Test the Law Under Which the Action Is Taken. —_——— At a meeting of the California State Board of Dental Examiners at the Coi- lege of Physfclans and Surgeons yester- day the following resolution regarding the Dental Department of the San Fran- cisco College was adopted: Whereas, After a thorough investigation by a majority of the members of this board, it has been found that the San Francisco Dental College is not conducted in the manner that & reputable dental college should be, Resolved, That we do not indorse the same. The board will refuse to examine.the applicants of this college this morning on the ground that they do not come under the provisions of the first ciass of section 12 of the State law which reads: No person shall be eligible for examination by the State Board uf Dental Examiners who shall not furnish satisfactory evidence of hav- ing graduated from a reputable dental coliege of the United States of America, which must bave been indorsed by the Board of Dental Ex- aminers of California, and be a member of the Natlonal Assoclation ‘o Dental College Facul- tes, H. M. Owens, attorney for the college, stated that the action of the board would e reviewed and that one of the graduates would immediately bring suit to test the law’s constitutionality. FACULTY IS SUBPENAED. As this will be the first case to come into effect September 1, 1901, watched with keen interest by all dentists of the State. The board adopted a resolution ex- punging from the minutes the resolution of the former State Board indorsing the San Francisco Dental College. The members of the faculty of the San Francisco College were subpenaed to ap- pear before the board yesterday and show why their graduates should be allowed to take the examination. The board gave its reason for holding the investigation that it was not satisfied with the college books showing the records of attendance and standing. In behalf of the college Drs. A. E. Blake, A. E. es, H. A, Tennyson and C. Deichmiller and H. M. | vens, profegsor of jurisprudence and at- for the college, testified that the college was run in a reputable manner. It | was found that out of the forty-six grad- | it will be | the ance, when every graduate should have | attained 7 per nt. H. M. Owens ad- mitted that the books and records were not kept as they should be, but said that was the wa¥ with all new colleges. QUESTION OF VERACITY. Dr. Frank E. Platt, former lecturer at | the college in question, testified that he | lectured there for one year, and that at | | the end of the year students who had never attended his lectures came up for | examination. When he spoke to Dr. Al- fred Blake, the dean, Blake said that it was all right, he was out for the stuff. Blake, however, emphatically denies this The members of the faculty of the San | Francisco Dental College contend that the State board, nearly all the members of which are graduates of the University of California, is acting with prejudice; that their college was recommended to the natfonal association by last year’s board, the other dental colleges to report upon the college to the association the indorse. ment by the national association was de layed. RACING SEASON OPENS LATE IN NOVEMBER NEXT Events Will Be Run at Tanforan and Oakland — Changes in Officials. The racing season on this coast will| open on November 15. Tanforan and Oak- land tracks will be used alternately. The stakes have been prepared and will be made public shortly. They will be the same as formerly and are all for added money, with the exception of the Burns handicap, which will be as usual, $10,000. There will be no purse less than $400. The officers will be: Presiding judge, E. C. Hooper; assistant judge, C. T. Pet- tingill: starters, Dwyer and Holtman; secretary P. W. Treat. Charles F. Price, Joseph Murphy and J. W. Brooks will be absent from the judges’ stand. @il @ Last night the Alcazar was packed to overflowing and the applause was spon- | taneous and liberal. This clever and‘ popular star gives a phenomenally strong | and artistic portrayal of the woman of | the half-world with a big heart, who is finally purified by her love for a man who could not make her his wife. White| Whittlesey, George Osbourne, Charles | Wyngate, Georgle Woodthorpe and the other members of the company give her admirable support. A word of special praise is due little Ollle Cooper for her clever piece of acting. The play will have a long run, Orpheum. The Orpheum patrons are being treated this week to a number of good things in vaudeville and large and well pleased au- dlerices are the result. Cushman, Hol- comb and Curtis duplicate their success of last season in “The New Teacher,” and their vocal numbers are well ren- dered. Curtis is possessed of a fine tenor voice and uses it to advantage in one or two ballads. Loris and Altina give a won- derful example of skill with the rifle and ick off glass balls located in close prox- mity to each others’ heads with marvel- ous precision. The twin sisters Meredith do a pleasing song and dance turn and Eleanor Falk and ten assistants create something of a sensation when they ap- pear attired in pajamas. The rest of the programme is well worth seeing. Fischer’s. It was the same old story at Fischer's last night. The house was packed, though this is the eleventh week of “‘Fiddle Dee Dee.” 8o great is the rush that Propri- etor Fischer has had to get inside to help Manager Friedlander out with the glad hand, while Sam Aaron, the popular treas- urer, has to use all the swiftness for which he is noted to pass out tickets, and the handsome special is compelled to hypnotize the ladies with his smile to keeY‘ them from breaking in at the front of tHe box office line. Though there seems to be no lessedfing of the demand for seats for “Fiddle Dee Dee” it i{s the intention of the management to soon take this bur- lesque off and put on the second of the series of the Weber & Fleld bills, three productions in one night, *“Pousse Cafe,” “A Royal Family” and ‘“Antony and Cleopatra.” Chutes. This week's programme at the Chutes is the best presented at that popular resort since the opening. and large au- diences enjoyved both performances yes- terday. James F. Kelly and Dorothy Kent made a hit in ‘their whirlwind farce, “Ginger Snape Murphy and Slater are amusing colored singers and dancers, and Edythe Tilden, a New York soprano, displays a pleasing voice to good advantage. Nellie Montgomery and her illustrated songs were warq’l]}r ap- plauded. Sid Baxter did some ‘original comedy juggling o the slack wire, and the animatoscope displayed a complete change of moving pictures. The Romany Trio appeared to even better advantage than last week. They are local musicians who have heen masquerading under stage names, but now that their success is as- sured they acknowledge themselves to be ‘Eva Tenney, formerly soprano of Trinity Church; Elsie Tooker, the . well-known guitarist of San Jose; and Frank Howard, the favorite ’cellist.

A collision occurred yesterday shortly after the noon hour between Kearny street car No. 1111 and a Sutter street car at Sutter and Kearny streets. Roland A. Boucher, an employe of the Vienna Mar- ble Company, who was sitting on the dummy of the Sutter street car, received slight bruises about the head, and a boy, Alfred Roberts, residing at 145 Dorland street, received a contusion of the head. Boucher was removed to the Rallroad Hospital in a hack, but his Injuries are not severe. At the time of the accident one Sutter street car was going east and another west at Kearny. Motorman Webb on the Kearny street car allowed the car on the other road to make the crossing going east and then turned to the lever, not seeing the other Sutter street car coming west. The Kearny street car dashed into the dummy of that of the Sutter street line, breaking the dashboard and throwing the car off the track. Boucher and Roberts were thrown to the ground and several of the passengers on both cars were shaken The front windows of the Kearny by the police regarding the identity at the request of the officials of the West- ern National Bank, 805 Market street, and the cause of the trouble was a draft on an which was irregular in some way.

Detectives McMahon and Whitaker last evening arrested a handsomely dressed young man on Market street and took kim to the City Prison, where his name was placed on the detinue book and he was locked up in the tanks and kept ab- solutely incommunicado. In the City Prison he gave the name of J. Black and his residence as Chicago ‘When searched over $1700 in currency was found on his person. In addition he had several valuable dlamond ornaments and other jewelry. The most absolute secrecy was observed £ the prisoner and the reason for his dete tion.
