Any one wanting more for his ducats is hoggish and shouid be compelled | to live in New York as she waves up at the Central. There is a loaded piledriver, a fire, a thrilling escape on the elevated railroad, an eighteen-carat villain,a stolen | child, a kidnaped banker and a pair of that make 20 100K would cail Pinero’'s manicure shops ana like what Sammy bnapper “thirty cents.” Just who or what is the “pulse” of New York is not very clearly defined.

True, there isn’t much time to smoke anything in the lightning course of “The Pulse oi New York.” The scene opens upon a sad state of things. Mrs. I'lorence Denantson (Miss Fanuie Mclniyre) is la- menting the disappearance of her hus- band, a banker, who is supposed to have | made away with himself 10 cover up his supposed acfaications. 10 her comes the villain and offers his hand and heart. | Florrie virtuously rejects him, but.prom- | proclivities. | i | | | | piece. ises to think it over if he will prove her husband innocent. He thinks it cheap at the ice and takes his leave, afterward sneaking in behind a screen to overhear what the bank janitor, who has dropped in io see the lady, has to say. Sammy Snapper, who has a St. Vitus deportment and a ragtime vocabulary, is tough but faithful. He comes to tell the suffering angsl that he knows what he knows and | suspects more. She extracts at last that he belleves Dennison stili to be alive, as- sisted in the vrocess by Miss Polly Mor- ton, a New York heiress of extraordinary Miss Morten and Mr. Snap- per shake hands upon a proposition to ind the banker and foil the villain, but with a bodeful cry of ‘“He knows too much” that gullty party seizes the Den- nison offspring and, to the tune of “me cheeild,” the curtain falls. And then it 1s a tussle between the heir- ess and the janitor, and the wicked part- ner of Banker Dennison. But all to no in a black beard that “*Aida,” bribes two dagoes to get rid of the janitor and his female accomplice. But Miss Morton and Sammy are onto his game. Giacomo, in a murderous looking red shirt and bandana handkerchief, trails the couple to the river side, cap- tures and imprisons the girl, and gets Sammy's head comfortably settied into the business end of a pile driver. It is of no use, however, for Polly leaps gallantly from her den and shoots just as, ete. Next scene Polly and Sammy get pos- session of documentary evidence of Holt's gullt and, findirfg Polly is a detective, the villain still pursues her. They really try to make a good job of it this time, tying down the girl to the elevated railroad track. ““The trains is coming both ways!” sings out the janitor, waves a knife, cuts the vietim's bonds, and the two of them, to wild applause, drop through the ties and hang there, just as, etc. Then the Dennison infant is rescued from a dive | by the pair, Polly in the disguise—she has the disguise habit very severely—of a German domestic. Then they rescue the Dennison papa and return him to his long-lost wife, where things are all com- fortable but for a little matter of a fire and the child being again stolen, both last flickers of the villain's revenge. If one must see New York life, one should cer- tainly go to the Central. Tivoli. There is no word short of superb that will adequately describe the performance of “La Gioconda,” that was given at the Tivoli last evening. The cast embraced De Frate, Coliamarini, Pozzi, Dado, De Padova, Zonghi and Cortesi, a wealth of vocal and dramatic talent. Replete with melody, many colored, orchestrated with consummate skill, written about a mov- ing and exciting story, all the materials were there for an entértainment of sur- passing interest, and the audience was stirred to great enthusiasm. In the mag- nificent climax to the third act, where all the resources of ensemble are em- ployed, the audience would not rest until Paul Steindorff had joined the row of singers that stood forth to accept the plaudits that were freely showered upon | In “La Gioconda” a great oppor-! them. tunity comes to De Frate in the name role, and she improved it well. Collama- rini and Pozzi also deserved much praise as La Cieca and Laura respectively. Dado made a splendid appearance in the third act as Aloise, and Zonghi filled the role of Enzo more than acceptably. De Pa- dova made much dramatically of the part of Barnaba. Orpheum. There is not a turn presented at the Or- pheum this week that is not first class. Fred Zobedie, the equilibrist, and the three Millettes do acrobatic stunts with a grace and skill seldom excelled, and the four Madcaps dance with an abandon and degree of agility and strength that en- titles them to the hearty applause that greets their every move. Lamar and Ga- briel do some very clever comedy work, particularly the little fellow, who is as clever_as many people several times his size. The singing of Atalie Claire wins her much handclapping. Colby and Way make themselves favorites with thelr very | clever feats of ventriloquism and doll im- itations. The biograph pictures are out | of the ordinary and the pictures of the M. Jean Marcel company of poseurs are the best presented since the appearance of these clever people. Alcazar. Miss Florence Roberts is duplicating her former success in “Zaza,” which began an- other week's engagement at the Alcazar last night. The favorite actress has per- fected herself in the exacting require- ments of a strong part and her earnest and effective work earned several recalls. White Whittlesey plays the part of Zaza's | lover with his customary ability and the scenes between the palr excite a tense in- terest, which only ceases when the cur- tain falls on the last agt. George Os- bourne, the old reliable, does the part of Cascart with his usual faithfulness to the smallest detail. Georgie Woodthorpe, Edith Angus, Lillian Armsby and Bertha Blanchard give Miss Roberts splendid support, and little Oliie Cooper does the child part in a very natural manner. California. “The Penitent,” a dramatization of Hall Caine's novel, was presented at the Cali- fornia Theater last night. The play is a melodrama and has some quite exciting scenes, although no one would accuse the { fllustrious Manxman of using the lan- guage contained in certain portions of the John Byrnes in a humorous part was most_appreciated, and Charles N.

ALAMEDA, Sept. 15.—Auspicious, in- deed, was the opening to-night of the three-days’ celebration by the people of this city in honor of the completion of the tidal canal, one of the most important en- gineering undertakings thus far carried out on greater San Francisco Bay. Every Alamedan appeared to realize that the oc- cagion was an important epoch in the history of the municipality, as it marked the beginning of its career as an island city. Local residents are alive to the fact that the finishing of the splendid channel from San Antonio Estuary to San Leandro Bay Is an improvement that means much to Alameda in a commer- cial, sanitary and recreative way and they intend that the outside world shall know it. Though the city is aflutter with flags and bedecked with gorgeous bunting and though the carnival spirit is in the atmesphere, Alamedans who take pride in the isiand that contains their homes are refiective through it all. They are now prouder than eyer of the beauty and natural advantages of the city that was once a peninsula, but around which the tidal currents now ceaselessly flow, | wenty-eight years ago the first opera- tions on the tidal canal project were com- menced by the United States Govern- | ment. At times the work dragged along and was delayed in a manner that was discouraging, but the water now courses through the big ditch and the end of waiting is at hand. Three large steel drawbridges span the canal, belng located respectively at Park street, Fruitvale | avenue and High street. DIMENSIONS OF CHANNEL. The artificial channel is over a mile | leng and 400 feet wide, with a depth of | about eight feet at low tide. The ex- cavating of the great ditch was done by mammoth steam shovels and auger dredgers. Up to date the cost of the im- | provement to the Federal Government has been §766,830 80. The Park-street bridge cost, exclusive of its five im- mense concrete piers,s$30,200. The plers cost §14,430 9. The cost of the Fruitvale- avenue bridge was $53,000 and of the High-street bridge 327,000 . The entire sewer system on the north side of Alameda was built on the theory that the completion of the tidal canal would supply a current through the San Antenio Estuary that would daily flush the basin and perform natural sanitary work. Had the canal project been abandcned, as some of the members of the Rivers and Harbors Committee rec- | ommended, not later than last year, | would now necessitate the rebuilding by the city of the entire North Side sewer system. As scon as day broke this morning the decorators and workers at the booths and | concessions on the carnival boulevard be- gan operations and to-night the places were thronged with visitors and guests. The land parade that opened the car- nival season to-night was the largest ever een in Alameda. Nearly all of the fra- ternal, civic and military organizations in the city were represented in the proces- slon. Tt is estimated that more than 4 marchers were in line. Thousands of | regidents and visitors from outside cities | crowded the sidewalks to view the pa- | geant and follow it to the banks of the tidal canal, where a spectacular pyrotech- nic display took place on the shore op- | posite the carnival boulevard. The fra- ternal organizations carried numerous Lanners and some of them had floats em- | blematical of the order. Queen Tot in her royal equipage, accompanied by her maid of honor, iss Ruby Schloss, and her Majesty's ladles in walting, was the cynosure of all eyes. TAYLOR STARTS PARADE. Senator E. K. Taylor, grand marshal, started the parade at 8:30 o'clock from Central avenue and Pearl street. The line then proceeded to Park -avenue, to En- cinal avenue, to Park street, to Central avenue, west on Central avenue, then countermarched to Park street and thence along the latter thoroughfare to Harrison avenue to Broadway, where the mfl'ade was met by the Fruitvale and elrose Improvement Clubs and march- ing citizens. At Blanding avenue and Broadway the parade was reviewed by Queen Tot and dismissed. Prior to the starting of the procession Queen Tot, in her royal float, drawn by six horses and accompanied by the Alameda Press Club in an automobile, was driven up to the steps of the City Hall, where her Majesty received the keys of the city from Presl’- dent Joseph . Forderer of the City Trustees. Her Majesty graclously thank- ed President Forderer and wag driven back to the head of the parade. The Queen’s float was designed like a gondola, with swans’ heads at the prow. After the parade disbanded the mareh- ers and spectators filled the booths and concessions or paraded along the boule- vard and viewed the fireworks and the glu{nlnflted mosquito fleet tied up in the asin. To-morrow will be Children’s day. TI schools will close in the alternoXn u"n‘s also on Wednesday afternoon. Wed nesday night the marine parade will oe- cur on the canal. T e P TR Good Printing.

A 0uged Victim of the Mob Claims Officer of the Day Refused to Give Him Necessary Assist- ance. e A A serious riot took place last evening at the gates of the Presidio, Lyon and Greenwich streets, in which citizens, sol- diers, police officers and firemen took part. : I'he general belief is that the riot was due to a raid on the saloon owned by P. W. Anderson last Sunday evening, In which a number of soldiers were arrested for playing poker in the place. At 7:30 o'clock last evening about fifty soldiers of different companies gath- ered on the reservation near the wall, where the Unifon-street cars enter the Presidio, and began hurling stones into the saloon of P, W. Anderson, which Is {on the corner just opposite. The yells from the soldiers and noise of crashing glass soon attracted the attention of other soldiers on the reservation, and soon there was a mob of more than 00 sol- diers, all hurling stones and other mis- siles into the doomed saloon. Officers Ly- cette, Doherty, Rooker and Attridge were quickly on the scene and made a heroic attempt to disperse the mob, but under a storm of missiles they were driven ack. The soldiers Anderson’s saloon. doors and windows, place and in a short time every breakable thing was destroyed, after which the soldiers turned their attention to the saloon of Adolph L. Rehfeld, which is situated on the opposite corner, in which the lights had been extinguished and the doors barred. But the howling mob, catching up a wooden bench, which they used as a battering ram, soon made an entrance, and in a short time the work of destruction was finished and the toreh applied to the place, in an effort to burn it gflwn. ALARM IS SENT IN. In the meantime an alarm was sent in, and truck No, and engine No. answered the call, and while the firemen were busy extinguishing the fire, rocks were hurled upon them by the soldiers. After the riot had been raging for some time, the telephone wires being down, word was sent to Sergeant L. Shaw of the North End police station and he im- mediately ordered a squad of polige to the scene of the riot. By this time word had reached headquarters at the Presidio and a squad of mounted cavalrymen and a number of infantrymen were ordered out to disperse the mob. Fortunately, no one ‘was seriously hurt, although a number of shots were fired. A great deal of credit is due Lieutenant Thomas B. Murphy of the Twenty-ninth then charged upon Tearing down the they entered the his way to the Presidio from the city. He arrived at the scene of the disturbance at the time the mob was at work destroy- ing the saloon owned by Rehfeld, Al- though he had no orders from headquar- ters he recognized that it was a case of emergency, and single-handed entered the saloon and commanded the soldiers to leave the place. His orders were obeyed and the disturbance was quelled. Reh- feld, owner of one of the places destroyed, told the following story: About 8 o'clock a large number of soldiers gathered opposite Anderson's place and began to throw rocks at the saloon to destroy the property. 1 closed my place and climbing over the fence started up the road in the reservation to notify the officer of the day, whom I met at the gate where the cars come in. SAYS AID WAS REFUSED. He had a squad of soldiers with him. I said to him, *In the name of justice, stop this outrage.” The officer said he would stop nothing and told me to get out. When I left the men hooted me, and then the attack on my place commenced. During all the time the officer of the day and his squad stood at the gates and made no attempt to quell the disturbance. My place is entirely destroyed, and my loss will amount to nearly a thousand _dollars. Captain Call of the Seventh Regiment ordered out his men, and ‘with the assistance of the cavalrymen the rioters were dispersed and soon all was quiet. Colonel Rawles says he had received no official report up to 10:30 o'clock last night on the matter, but that a thorough investigation would be made this morn- ing and all those implicated in the affair severely punished. —_—— CHAIRMAN B.

HONOLULU, Sept. 9.—It is reported that an arangement will be entered into between former Senator John M. Thurs- ton of Nebraska and the Planters’ Asso- clation of Hawail before the departure of the statesman from Honolulu whereby the latter will represent all political in- terests of the planters at Washington, where more or less Congressional legisla- tion affects these islands. Since Hawail became a Territory of the United States the affairs of Hawali have Leen watched at the national capital by former Judge Hartwell and Willam Hay- ward, former United States Consul to Honolulu. Haywarl returned to Hono- lulu on the Korea, and it is said that some other fPllcla will shortly be found for him. A fight against reciprocity with Cuba is of the greatest importance to the sugar interests of Hawall at the present time. Senator Thurston has been entertained at a smoker by the Officers’ Club, where he created a favorable impression as a story teller and humorist. He presented some ping-pong prizes and hoped to = ticipate in a game on his next visit to Hawall. Senator Burton has returned from his hunting trip to Moelokal, but ke was not fertunate enough even to catch sight of a deer.

Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 118 Broadway, Sept. 1. After listening to the testimony of wit~ nesses to-night the Coroner's jury in the case of the late Mrs. Annie Elizabeth Stewart, wife of United States Senator William M. Stewart of Nevada, who died from injuries received in the automobile accident last Friday in Alameda, rendered the following verdiet: ‘We, the jury, do find that the deceased came to her death in the Alameda Sanitorium, Al meda, Cal., at about 6 o'clock p. m., Septes ber 12, 1902, and that death was caused by shock and concussion of the brain, resulting from an automobile, in which she was riding. accidentally striking agaiast a post at Bay street and Santa Clara avenue, Alameda, and thereby throwing her out. H. Benedict Taylor, the chauffeur who was in charge of the automobile at the time of the fatal accident, was the prin- cipal witness. He retold practically the same story he told on the night of the mishap, except that it was more correct as to detalls, the result of a calmer recol- lection of the incidents that preceded it. Mr. Taylor limped into the jury-room with the aid of a cane, his leg being swathed In bandages. TAYLOR TELLS HIS STORY. Upon being asked to describe just how the accident happened Taylor sald: “Mrs, Stewart, Henry S. Foote and my- self left Oakland in the afternoon and along Santa Clara avenue. At Bay street we met a wagon. The boy driving it stopped when he saw me, and I stopped, too, to let him pass. Then, taking my cue from him, 1 started up again, intending to pass him. But he started again, and seeing a collision was inevitable I turned into Y street to avoid him. Evidently I didn't turn enough, for the automobile ran into a telegraph pole that stood near the curd at the corner.” “How fast were you going?"' was asked. “Not more than fifteen miles an hour. If T had been going faster the machine would have turned over. The machh was in perfect condition and had been use only three weeks."” “What side of the road were you on On the right side, near the center. g 'When you hit the post what occurred?” 1 have no idea. I don’t remember any- thing after being thrown out until I re- covered my senses. After coming to I saw Mrs. Stewart being attended by- standers. We were in the same relative positions after being thrown out as when Wwe were sitting in the carriage, in which we were on the front seat. e was con- selous then. She complained of internal paing, but -made no statement about the aceident.” “What part of the automobile struck the pole?’ “The axle. If we had turned just a lit- tle more the accident would have been avoided. We were in the curb, anyway. and if the le had not been there we weuld have been safe.” Walter E. Ridley, the young grocery clerk who drove the wagon that caused the accident, testified that he was first attracted to the automobile by two sharp whistles. He stopped his wagon, on which he was riding north on Bay street, to let the machine pass. SAYS HE TURNED ASIDE. “To avold a collision,” Ridley sald, “we turned away from each other, the aute- mobile going imto Bay street and I going up Santa Clara avenue. I didn't see the automobile collide with the pole, and didn’t know what bad happened until T got back and saw the crowd around the machine. Mrs. Stewart was then lying on the ground.” ‘What is your judgment as to the speed at which the automobile was running?” was asked. “I shouid say twenty miles an hour,™ replied Rldlu% Henry S. Foote, who sat on the rear seat of the automobile and was thrown cut and hurt, narrated a story similar to that of Taylor. On being asked to tell what occurred he said: “We went to Alameda in the afternoon in the machine. Mrs. Stewart and . Taylor were in the front seat and I in the rear. At. Bay street I saw a wagon start to &0ss the avenue on which we were riding. The driver stopped and Tay- lor stopped. Taylor started up again, so did the driver. That brought us to- gether, and to avoid a collision Taylor turned into Bay street. We weren't going too tast and we would have been all right if we had not struck a pole. When the crash came I was thrown out and remem- bered nothing more until I recovered my senses and found Taylor and Mrs. Stew- art lying together on the sidewalk.” “If the wagon hadn’t started up again you would have been all right, would yeu?” was asked. “Yes,” replied Foote, “if the driver had stopped we could have gone by him with- out colliding. When we started we were forced to change our course.” Coroner Mehrmann informed the jury that he had examined the broken pola and found that it was a 12x12 redwood, much rotted and braced by another 12x13, also rotted. He said this showed that it was not the speed of the automobile that PiEhe Ju ed of G. W. e jury was composed of G. W. A W, “rylalnnder. Bast Fittbogen, J. # Taylor, J.
