THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY OCTOBER 14, 1902 GOVERANOR ODELL OPENG CAMPAIGN Appeals to Both Parties to Support Repub- lican Ticket. Says National Administration Has Shown Itself Faith- ful to the People. [ | i | NEW YORK, Oct. 13—Governor Odell | night opened the Republican State | ampaign in Brooklyn by making a num- | ber of speeches. In the early evening he | attended a dinner given in his honor by | | % the Union League Club of Brooklyn, at| | which Senator Depew was one of the| | speakers. The Governor was then driven to the Academy of Music, where he opened the Hebrew Fair. After this Governor| | Odell was taken to the rooms of the Brooklyn Young Men’s Republican Club and thence to the Claremont Rink, where he made the principal address of the night The greater gart of the Governor's speech was devoted to State affairs y. He appealed to the people of | both great political parties for support | of the State ticket on the ground that the | Republican admipistration had shown it- | eclf faithful to tWe interests of the whole people without Tegard to-political. ex igencies After declaring that Democrat- ic attacks upon the national administra- tion and upon the policies of Government | h had to do with the great problems | came as a result of the 'war with | | Spain had been met and the issues solved | upoa American lines and for the benefit of humanity and the advancement of civ- tion, the Governor said: They now seek to ignore these great ques- tions and to appeal for support condi- tions which exist in a neighboring State, .and for -which the people of New York are-in no responsible.

The first act of ‘Il Trov- atore” and the finale parts in the third sct of *“Lombardi” were given. In the “Lombardi”’ scene Zonghi was Orontes 2nd Signor Dado Pegano and De Frate Viclinda. Dado’s rich voice was heard to great advantage, and Zonghi also distin- guisfied himself. In thé ~II Trovatore” scene Venerandi was once more Manrico, while De Padova sang the music of Count di Luna. The scene from the fourth act of “Rigo- letto” again brought De Spada on the scene with Russo as the Duke, Golda as his daughter and Collamarini and De Paoll in the other roles. Very clever work was done in the final number as in those that preceded. Not all of the honors of the evening went to the soloists. There were Verdl overtures on the programme, Forza, Del Destino and Nabucco, and here Paul Steindorff came in for a well-earned share of applause. The audience would have had the last-named overture repeated if Steindorff had consented, but he modest- ly declined after gracefully acknowledg- ing the pladits of the lovers of Verdi mel- odles. California. ¢ “The closer you lock the less you see,” is the motto of ‘“Herrmann the Great,” who is at the California this week, but in any event there is no way of divining how he accomplishes his wonderful feats of legerdemain. At the first of the per- formance his observers weary themselves in vain guesses; at the end they are hyp- notized enough by his magic to believe that he can do anything. As a prestidigi- tateur he undoubtedly has not to-day and probably never bad an equal. He produces cverything, from coins to globes of gold fish, from no zpparent source. He has borrowed Powell's trunk trick and does it better than the originator. His me- chanical devices and optical illusions are neither so numerous nor mystifying as were Keller's, but the latter's fifteen vears’ of study with the jugglers of India 21d not give him the power to do the mar- velous sleight-of-hand work that Herr- mann is doing at the ‘California. Herr- mann has several new tricks since he ap- peared in this city last year and many of the oid ones, which lose none of thelr mystery by repetition. The house was crowded last night and the magician’s’ wonders were given un- mistakable indorsement in the way of ap- plauge. In addition to Herrmann's expo- sition of the black art the Coolmans pre- sent some very pleasing musical novel- tles. Orpheum. The Athos family, every member. of which is strong, active and graceful, do an acrobatic stunt at the Orpheum this week that the patrons of the theater will not see duplicated for many a day. There are six of them and every one of the six is an athlete par excelldnce. The Yankee Comedy Four, Crawford and Stanley, Ric- cobono’s performing horses and canines, George W. Day, Ned Wayburn's Jockey Club, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Thorne and company, O'Brien and Buckley and Sato, the juggler, furnish an evening’'s amuse- ment even above the high standard main- tained by the Orpheum. Central. | It was a redletter occasion last night | | at the' Central Theater when “Under Sealed Orders,” a spectacular melodrama, was recelved with tremendous enthusiasm by a packed house. The play is full of exciting situations and climaxes, and as a scenic production it has never been sur- passed in this city. Eugenie Thais Law- ton, the new leading lady, made her first appearance at this theater and scored an immense hit as Julle. She is an exceed- ingly handsome and graceful woman, with a musical and well cuitivated volce >f considerable volume. She is also an ac- complished actress. Miss Lawton was cordially received and honored with many curtain calls and floral offerings. Henry Shumer gave a striking and clever per- formance of Victor Sanson, the French criminal, and as the hero, Tom Melville, Edwin Emery proved acceptable. George ‘Webster as Henry Mortimer was a con- spicuous and excellent feature of the cast. | Thomas Kelrns made a comedy success as Jetry Sprowles and Georgie Cooper played | Kitty Bell with a delightful archness nnflJ vivacity. Agnes Rankin was a pjgtur- csque Algerian girl and Margaret Mar- shall as Mrs. Melville left nothing to be desired. ‘Ernest Howell did good work as Captain Hubert Devereux. To-night will be wheelmen's night and there will be a home trainer bicycle race for the®cham- plonship of the Pacific Coast. The Cen- tral Theater will present a silver trophy to the winning club. Monday night next *Under the City Lamps" will be produced. Chu The three Millettes,- wohderful hand- balancers and acrobats, pleased large au- diences at both performances at the Chutes yesterday. Ola Hayden, the girl with the extraordinary barytone volce, reappeared in new selections, and Clau- dine Riley, a cornet soloist, made an em- phatic hit. Josephine Gassman and her pickaninnies, World and Dreyfuss, the singing and dancing novelty duo, aand John Gelger, trick violinist, repeated’ their success of last week and the animato- scope showed interesting and amusing moving plctures. Resseur’s infant fncu- bators, with their happy and thriving bables, attract a great amount of atten- tion. Many novelties are promised for Thursday, amateur night. Alcazar. “The Maneuvers of Jane,” a comedy in four acts, by Arthur Henry Jones, author j of “The Liars,” opened the week at the | Alcazar last night to a house that was packed and that laughed and enjoyed the fun from the beginning to the end. The comedy i8 foll of character and brough WIDOWS AND ORPHANS ENRIGHED BY SPLENDID BENEFIT PERFORMANGE AT GRAND OPERA HOUS + MARIE WAINWRISHT s stock company, the principal characters befng Jane Nangle (Miss Suzanne Santje) and Lord "Bapchild (Frank Bacon). The role of Jane is one that requires much acting, and was portrayed to the life by Miss Santfe, who was almost Kaleido- scopic , in ~ her varying moods of petu- lance, anger, coaxing and defiance. She had the héuse with her from the start and kept it to the finpish. Frank Bacon was himself again as Lord Bapchild. If the ‘part’ had been written specially for him it could not have been a better fit. After he had fairly started it was only necessary for him to appear on the stage to start the house laughing. Oza Wal- dorp had an excellent part, that of Pa- mela, the ‘Inquisitive, tattling little girl, and played it with fidelity to nature. The old men, George Osbourne as Jervis Pun- shon, Charles J. Stine as Mr. Nangle and Howard Scott as Bostock, were clean-cut, artistic characterizations. Miss Juliet Crosby, always the true artist and one of the swcetest women on the local stage, was excellent support to Miss Santje as Constantia Gage. Georgie Woodthorpe, California Quinn, Adele Belgarde and Marie Howe made up the remaining characters. of notc. Mr. Lamp did not have much opportunity to shine, his part being no. better than that of a walking gentleman. The play was marred by sev- eral miscues, and on two occaslons a catastrophe was averted only by the pres- ence of mind and ingenujty of Mr. Os- bourne and Miss Santje. Columbia. Marguerita Sylva and her comic opera company commenced the closing week of their engagement at the Columbia Thea- ter last night in the musical play *‘The Strollers " The theater was well filled and the audience was aporeciative and generous in applause. Miss Sylva has es- tablished herself as a favorite and all her numbers were encored and the “Flo- rodora"” number had to be repeated sev- eral times. She has a charming person- ality, which is brought prominently into notice in this fetching *pretty malden’s" part which she does all by herself. George C. Boniface Jr. and John D. Gil- bert are clever as the funmakers and the foot gymnastics of D. L. Don are ex- ceedingly amusing. David Torrance had to repeat his song ‘Loretta” and Dorothy Hunting made a hit in her song “Eyes of Blue.” Lou Middleton’s coon song “Rosalic” came in for its share of the applause. The last scene “The Fete of the Fans"” is very pretty. Next week the comedy opera “King Dodo” will be pre- sented. Fischer’s. To-night commences the second week of “Whirl-I-Gig” and “The Other Way” at Fischer's Theater. The house still enjoys the large patronage which the burlesques merit. Owing to the numerous encores which delayed the travesty, Manager Lask has cut the lines In “The Other Way,” and the play is now liveller and the more fascinating. On Wednesday aft- ernoon, October 29, the Zech symphony concert will be given at Fischer's The- ater. -— . ' Wheelmen at the Central. ‘Wheelmen's night at+#he Central Thea- ter takes place to-night. In conjunction with the elaborate performance there will be a home trainer bicycle race for the champlonship of the Pacific Coast. The Central Theater has donated a valuable silver cup for the winning club. The race will take place between acts. Lace Down- ing and C. Limberg will represent the “Twelfth Night” Is Produced Before an Immense Audience 2 ITH every seat in the house sold, the benefit performances of “Twelfth Night” for the benefit of the Widows’ Orphans’ Aild Association of the San Francisco Police Department opened -most auspiciously last night at the Grand Opera-house. It is but seldom that the ‘men in brass buttons make any public appeal, but that their services to the community are appreciated was heartily evidenced . last night by the crowded and enthusiastic house that gath- ered in honor of their benefit. Seats for “Twelfth ‘Night” have been bought In numbers of from.fifty to tive hundred by single persons, and that thé whole week, which will be devoted exclusively to the | big benefit, will see as large houses as on last night is already practically assured. The Police Commissioners, with Chief ‘Wittman, were among those who attend- ed the performance, and Mission street lcoked like the Grau days with the long line of carriages. The benefit week at the California Theater of five years ago, when the Frawley company were the en- tertainers, was the last affair of the kind to be given until the present one. Seven thousand dollars was netted on that ac- casion; but: it is fully expected that the receipts for this week’s entertainment will reach not less than $10,000. Besides - the worthiriess of the cause. there is in the exceedingly attractive bill | every inducement for the playgoer to at- tend the' Grand Opera-house this week. With Miss Marie Wainwright, who this week begins a starring engagement at | the house, the company is giving a very pleasing rendering of the delightful old comedy, “Twelfth Night.” Miss Wain- wright is one of the best Violas now on the stage. She reads the part with much charm and distinction, investing it with a graceful humor and tenderness that make her conception of this most pleas- ing. character delightfully acceptable. There are others also in the cast to whom much credit is due. The self-conceit and fantastic grandilo- quence of Malvolio are very well, though somewhat over-extravagantly conceived by Herschel Mayall, who in ‘“yellow stockings, cross-gartered,” looks the part most ~ excellently. Mr. Mayall's deep, pleasing voice and clear enunciation come just as. gratefully as ever. That mellow toper, Sir Toby Beich, is thoroughly well done by H. D. Byers, and his crony, Sir | Andrew Aguecheek, is effectively sketched in by Gilbert Gardner. is the Duke, and handsome in the part. Miss Blanche Stoddard has the role of | Ohvia, and ‘a very pratty Olivia she makes. Her enunciation is not all it might be, but from the picturesque side che is irreproachable and agreeable, also dramatically as the wayward Olivia. Miss Walker furnished a mischievous and mer- ry Mistress Maria, and the rest of the cast was effective. Camille d'Arville kindly furnished an agreeable diversion with a song, for which the fair singer was encored until she declined: to grant any further fa- vors. Her numbers were ‘‘Love Letters,” “Beyond the Hills” and *“The Honey- suckle and the Bee.” To-night Lydia Yeamans Titus will give her famous specialty, and every evening a new spe- cialty will be introduced. Thrown, From His Motor-Cycle. R. G. Austin, manager for the Austin sisters, trapeze artists, now performing at the Woodmen's street carnival, fell from his motor cycle yesterday afternoon at the corner of Market and Jones streets, Austin was taken to the Emergency Hos- pital, where it was found that he had sus- tained a fracture of the right hip.

SAN JOSE, Oct. | reception was tendered Congressman Lit- | tiefleld of Maine this evening by the Re- | 13.—An enthusiastie publicans of San Jose and vicinity. It was the largest and most demonstrative meeting of the campaign. Congressman | Lattiefield arrived at 4:30 o'clock. He was met by a committee of Republicans and | escorted to the St. James Hotel, where for an hour he held a reception. This evening the Army and Navy Republican | League, headed by a band, escorted Lit- tletield to the Garden Theater. The place | was filled and members of the league oc- | cupied the center section of the house. E. A. Hayes, chalrman of the Republican County Central Committee, called the mecting to order, and introduced Major W. A. Coulter, who presided as chair- man. Congressman Littlefleld received a warm reception. He sald nothing made one | teel the greatness of the Republican party more than to come 3000 miles from home | and meet his fellow citizens and know they were all interested in the same great | questions. To maintain this unity of party _sentiment Republicans must be | elegted. He said an effort should be | made’ to elect a Republican Congress, and he spoke of the work of Congressman Loud as representative of the Fifth Dis- | trict. He advised the citizens of Santa | Clara County to return Loud, who by | bard-work and attention had reached the ]chairmanship of one of the great com- mittees. | INFLUENCE OF LOUD. | If present conditions were to be main- | tained, he said, a Republican Congress must ‘be elected. The election of Demo- cratic Congressmen in the various States would mean a Democratic Speaker and the appointment of a Democratic Ways and Means Committee. A committee of that complexion would undertake to | frame a pelicy based on tariff for revenue | eniy, and Republican protection would be like a strange cat in a garret. American labor and fndustry would suffer. He con- tinued: Ths Republicans of this district can do_no better than to return my friend Loud to Con- In getting things for his constituents than & | Democrat possibly could have.

Then if a vacancy occurs in the otfige of United States Semator he will appoint a Republican, TAKES UP THE TARIFF. After paying a handsome tribute to the | resources of California, Congressman Littletleld took up the tariff question) | Said he: It is a peculiarity that no man running for Congress has the manhood to stand up and say he is in favor of free trade for any product of California. The Democrats are trying to make the people believe that they can have protec- tion for everything raised in the State and free trade for the other parts of the country. The Democratic_party of California dares not go upon record as opposed to the poliey of the Republicans. | " Although the eight Democratic nominees for Congress, it elected, should oppose free trade, what intiuence could they have in preventing legislation antagonistic to Californfa? The re- duction of the tariff on prunes from 2 cents to | 1 cent a pound by the Democrats was aceom- | plished notwithstanding the influence of the late | Senator White. Since then the Republicans | have re-enacted the old revenue of 2 cents a | pound. 1f you want the Democratic tariff to | again apply to prunes, why vote their ticket! | But for a continuation of the presenit prosper- ous times every man should vote for the Re- publicans. Littlefleld said the Democrats claimed that the tariff would regulate the trusts and proposed a free trade remedy as a cure for the trusts, that were now con- demned. The Democrats hoped to kill the trusts by taking off ‘the tariff, but this would kill all of the great industries and throw men out of employment. DRUGGISTS ENJOY DAY ON TOP OF TAMALPAIS Local Committee Accompanies Visi- tors on Trip—To Leave for the | East This Morning. The visiting members of the National Wholesale Druggists’ Association, to- gether with their friends and familles, took a trip to Mount Tamalpais yester- day, in charge of the local entertainment committee. Special arrangements were made for ac- commodations at the hotel on the moun- tain peak and when the druggists arrived there they sat down to a splendid lunch- eon. The weather was not as pleasant as it might have been, but it was not in- clement enough fo impair the day's en- joyment. The visitors returned to the Palace Ho- tel about 6 o’clock and spent the evening resting up, preparatory to their journey to their homes. The entire party leaves for the East this morning on a special train. . _————————— Sousa’s Concerts.
