Trouble Occurs in Baldwin Lodging House on Ellis Street. Mrs. S. Hynie of Sacramento fired a shot at her former husband, Varney Dean, in the Baldwin lodging house, B Ellis street, last evening. That the wom- an meant murder is.evidenced by her sub- scquent assertion that she would kill the man at the first opportunity. Dean and his former wife went to the lodging-house shortly after 8 o'clock. Accompanying. them was the 7-year-old grandchild of thé woman. Soon afterward the guests were startled by a pistol shot, | and running into the room found the | clerk of the house struggling with Mrs. Hynie for the possession of the pistol.

Ahlers Secures a Warrant for the Arrest of Alfred Arens. H. C. Ahlers, a jeweler ift the Thurlow block, 126 Kearny street, secured a war- rant from Judge Cabaniss yesterday for | the arrest of Alfred Arens, a manufactur- | | irg jeweler in th® same building, on the | charge of grand larceny. Ahlers alleges that on October 10 | Arens called at his place and asked to see some sunset diamonds, as he had a cus- tomer who wanted one. Ahlers kept them in a bag, and he took the bag and | showed Arens the stones. He weighed cne, but Arens did not purchase it. “A few days later,” said Ahlers, “I had cceasion to examine the stones in the bag { and found two missing, one valued at 3175 and the other at $150. I made an investi- gation and discovered that Arens had | s0ld an unset stone similar to one of the | two missing from my bag to Fred Stan- ley, a barber living at 1310 Castro street.” Hence the arrest. e Livingston Jenks deserves your vote for Superior Judge.

The Nathan-Dohrmann Company gave its 200 employes an enjoyable entertain- ment last Saturday evening in honor of the twenty-fifth anniversary of Major Charles Specht, one of the prominent em- ployes of the company, who entered the service as a messenger boy. The affair | was held on the sixth floor of the Bush- street building. Major Specht was pre- sented with a diamond ring, F. W. Dohr- mann making the presentation speech. NEW ADVERTISEMANTS. NEW SCIENTIFIC PROCESS. A Preparation Discovered That Will Destroy the Dandruff Germ. For some time it has been known that dandruff is caused by s germ that digs up the scalp into little white flakes, and by sapping the vitality of the hair at the root, causes falling hair, and, of coursé, | finally baldness. For years there have been all kinds of hair stimulants and scalp tonics on the market, but there has been no permanent cure for dandruff un- til the discovry of a preparation called Newbro's Herpicide, which" destroys the dandruff germ. Destroy, the cause the effect will cease to exist.' Kill the dan- druff germ and you'll have no dandruff, | no itching scalp, no falling hair. | | | IRISH MOSS COUGH BALSAM PRESCRIBED BY THE BEST PAYSICIANS FOR 8 Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Bron- i chitis, Croup In Children, and AH Throat and Lung Troukles Try & bottle to-day; don’t wait till the doe- tor says “CONSUMPTION.” 26c; 50¢ AT ALL DRUGGISTS CURES IN A DAY, Don’t fiet Excited Over the laundry question—let us solve it for you and you'll'win a degree of satisfaction realizable at no other laundry’s hands.

Frank Pallma's white gloves and the “Pretty Malden” sextet are still the smartest things in “Florodora,” and for either of them it is worth while going to che Columbia this week. A good house greeted the comedy musical last night in spite of the exciting tag end of the rival political comedy that was acting outside. The piece was also productive of much of the pleasure of its first performances here last year and it is evident that there is not a little color that does not come out in the wash in “Florodora.” This is the more apparent in that the present pro- duction gives less chance to the piece than last year’s. Theré\is about it a little of the air of last year’s bonnet—the flowers rather weary, the ribbons tossed, the out- line frankly of yesterday. The miracu- lous smartness and spick and span up-to- dateness that made the first “Florodora™ the successful rival of all comers of its kind is not here, and yet there is plenty left to make the comedy enjoyable, even to those who heard it before. Of all the last year's cast but one re- mains, Charles H. Bowers, whose pleas- ant voice still wins much favor for his; song, “Under the Palms.” Uncommonly well Mr. Bowers sings, in a well-trained in fact, to -say ‘she-eltering” and “she-ade” for their violated equivalents in his song. He retains the right senti- mental fervor in his rendering and was greeted warmly. For Miss Grace Dudley, the piquant young English person who introduced Lady Holyrood to us, there is considerable charm. Miss Falk can sing, which is more than Miss Dudley could do, and has manner and intelligence. She does mnot possess, however, quite the same delicate aristocratic flavor and chic that characterized Miss Dudley, but she makes a satisfy- ing Lady Holyrood nevertheless. Miss Grace Hazard as Angela Gilfain also pos- sesses more voice than her pink and pleas= ing predecessor and does pretty work in the role. Corinne does the Dolores and— unfortunately for Dolores, who was al- most as badly done last year by Laura Millard. Alf Wheeler, the classis ‘*hoot mon,” is valuable, but not exceptionally happy as Tweedlepunch, the particular sort of gro- tesquerie in which the fake phrenologist indulges not being quite Mr. Wheelan's best kind. Still, his is always good work. Cyrus Gilfain is done by Charles Dox | with some enthusiasm, but no large result. The sextet remains the chief attraction, and was excellently done last night by a handsome set of youths and maidens who were applauded to the echo. The whole performance goes with clockwork smooth- ness, and the show will doubtless see ex- cellent business California. The second performance of “Lost Riv- er” at the California Theater last night was well attended and applause was fre- quent and emphatic. The play abounds in thrilling features. There are races for l:ife and money on horses and on bicycles. The hero, single handed, holds at bay a mob of enraged Italians. There are high- waymen, pistols and murderous looking knives galore. A soclety belle engages in | dark intrigues with an outlaw. A lost lather returns rich and repentant. The sun breaks from the clouds at lagt, the right people get married, the evil ones are put to flight and the curtain falls on the last act with all the characters hold- ing hands and smiling in complete hap- piness. A tramp quartet carried off the honors by the criterion of applause. Lot- tie Briscoe, the heroine, played her part nicely. Elwood F. Bostwick, the hero, also did very well. Olive Briscoe and Robert Sanfcrd, as adventuress apd vil- lain,” were hissed heartily at every turn of the plot. Fred House, Howard -Missi- mer, Pauline Duffield and Nellle Claire were quite successful in humorour roles. The others of the cast furnish excellent support for the leaders. Alcazar. The comedy “Because She Loved Him So0,” adapted from the French by Wil- llam Gillette, was the attraction at the Alcazar Theater last night and it scored a pronounced success. The plot is simple, but it gerves to evolve some very amus- ing and at times pathetic situations. The greatest part of the work falls upon Frank Bacon and Miss Marie Howe as John Weatherby ahd Mrs. John Weather- by, who have lived a quiet, peaceful life for thirty years, but assume the task of appearing to quarrel bitterly for the pur- pose of reconciling their daughter and her husband. Bacon surpassed himself and made the part full of life and vivid- ness. A touching and pathetic scene was s at the close of the second act that stamped Bacon and Miss Howe as true artists. They deservedly recelved numer- ous curtain calls at the close of .the act. Charles A. Millward and Miss Suzanne Santje were excellent as the young hus- band and wife. Clifford Dempsey as Ed- ward Marsh did well and Albert Morri- son as Pritchard, the butler, was satis- factory, his dialect being perfect. Miss Margaret Marshall as Margaret, the old servant, was rich and racy and earned much applause. Miss Juliet Crosby was also successful as Donna Adelina Gon- zales. Grand Opera-House. Like a novel by Miss Braddon is “Daughters of Eve,” which is put”down on the playbills as. a ‘*‘strong modern drama by A. E. Lancaster and Julien Mangus,” a drama with which Marie Wainwright and the Grand Opera-house Company open the fourth week of her en- gagement. The first act reads as if it were from a woman's pen, it contains so much small talk, until just before the fall of the curtain, when the ‘gentleman’ friends of the hero insult him and coolly tell him that the woman to whom he is WHITE SCORES MORGAN'S FIRM Says Insolent Message Was Sent to His Company. Denies the Truth of State- ments Contained in the Financier’s Letter. , - LONDON, Nov. 3.—The acrimonious controversy arising from the Morgan- Yerkes tube rivalry was added to this evéning by a statement given out for pub- lication by George White, chairman of the United Tramways. White character- izes as “mythical” one or the assertions in- the letter from Morgan, printed in the Times on Monday last. He declares that another statement in the letter is “not a fact” and continues thus: The facts are that after an experfence of the methods of Messrs_ Morgan extending over four months and cuiminating in their insolent message to us through their solicitor that they absolutely declined to discuss our proposals e determined that nothing on earth should in- duice us to continue business relations with that rm. The principals now seem inclined to drop the newspaper campaign. Tq-day Edgar Speyer said: * 1 @eprecate all such press controversies. We certainly should never had appeared in print but for the harsh words of Sir Louis Melver in_the House of Commons debate, which, com- ing from the chairman of the tubes committee, might easily have been misunderstood. Since his lettér to the Times, entirely exonerating my fifm of any Imputation of improper deal- ing, the matter, so far as we are concerned, Is engaged to be married is a notorious wanton. Then Herschell Mayall, who plays Robert Hawthorne, strikes a Booth- esque attitude and demands the instant proof of the slander or the life of the slanderer. Mijss Wainwright warms up the second act with a defense of erring women and blames it all upon the men, whereupon half the audience applauds her. As the good sister of Rhoda Daintry, the woman of the half world, Miss Wainwright has ample opportunity for the display of her emotional talent. She is well supported in some of the strongest scenes by Fred J. Butler, the unforgiving father. Mr. Butler plays the part with pathetic fidel- ity and well merits all the applause he receives. For a first night's productlon the play went very smoothly. Central. In -the new melodrama, “War on ‘Women,” the Central has the most at- tractive bill of the present season. It is founded on an Indian outbreak and be- sides possessing a stirring and interesting story, affords a splendid opportunity for scenic display, .which the management has thoroughly availed itself of. Nothing prettier In the way of stage pictures than the Apache camp by moonlight has been witnessed in this ecity. The exterior and interior of Fort Scott and the country railway station are also particularly worthy of commendation.. The cast was a very strong one. Landers Stevens made his first appearance at this theater and was accorded an ovation. He was excel- lently suited to the heroic role of Captain Jack Sterling, in which he scored a great hit. He was several times called before the curtain and enthusiastically applaud- ed. Eugenie Thais Lawton carried off the chief feminine honors as Margaret Pres- cott. ' She looked very handsome and act- ed with considerable grace and feeling. The remaining characters were well ren- dered by Agnes Rankin, Georgie Cooper, Elsie Van Braham, Maggle Francis Leavy, Charles Stine, Ernest Howell, ‘Thomas Keirns, George Nicholls, Edwin Emery, Walter Whipple and Willlam Harris. To-night the election returns will be an- nounced from the stage between each act. Next Monday the new Eastern melo- drama, “The King of Detectives,” will be produced for the first time in this city. Tivoli. Collamarini repeated her success . last evening as Carmen. The audience was full of enthusiasm for her artistic work, dramatically and musical]ly. She was never in better voice and never gave a more finished performance in this role, which is saying much. Signorina de Spada also added to her vocal laurels as Michaela, singing brilliantly at times and uniformly well. Russo as Don Jose was good. D’Albore won the customary en- core with the toreador song, which went off with dash and spirit. The work of Anna Wilson and Gertrude Hopkins in secondary roles was good enough to de- serve mention. The remainder of the cast included Cortesi, De Paoli, Jacques and Zani. This evening Tosca will be given for the first time with Signorina Monta- narl as Tosca, Agostino as Cavarodossi, De Padova as Scarpia, Jacques as Ange- lottl and Cortesi as Spoletta. Orpheum. Sparrow, the mad juggler, is beyond a doubt the funniest performer that has ap- peared at the Orpheum in a long time. He is.so mirth-provoking that all one can do while he is on the stage is laugh. After he leaves the stage you wonder what makes your sides so sore, and then laugh afresh, for you hear the noise made by the stage hands in sweeping off the crockery demolished by Sparrow. during his turn. The entire show at the Orpheum this week Is better than good, the new numbers, aside from Sparrow, adding much to the quality of the show presented by the holdovers. George H. Ward, the Three Nevarros, Genaro and Bailey and Arthur Habn are all clever people. ),, Theatrical Managers’ Benefit. Good things without end will be inciud- ed in the programme for the fourth an- nual benefit under the auspices of the Assoclated Theatrical Managers of San Francisco in aid of their charity fund for the sick and needy in the profession, to take place at the Orpheum Friday after- noon, November 14. The famous” double sextet from ‘Florodora” volunteered its services last night, and some of the prin- clpals of the company will be heard in gems from the opera. All of the best theaters in the city will be represented on the bill, the performance will be con- tinuous and, on account of the great num- ber of volunteers, the overture by the combined orchestras of the city will be- | glin at 1 o'clock sharp. Fischer’s. “Way Up East,” a travesty on “Way | Down East,” opened at Fischer's Theater last night. The house was packed and the audience went away well satisfled .with the show. The burlesque is by the well- known writer of musical productions and- war correspondent, Richard Carle. The production had the longest run of any |! travesty in the EaSt. “Whirl-I-Gig” con- tinues to receive the same applause. AT SR 'Chutes. There is the usual entertaining bill at the chuv.es PAm!

WARRING TRIBES RAZE VILLAGES Heavy Loss of Life Espiritu Santu Island. on One Faction l\ed by Nandai, Son of a Notorious Chief. VICTORIA, B. C., Nov. 3.—Advices were received by the steamer Miowera of a tribal war which has resulted in heavy loss of life on Espirftu Santu Island, ithe largest of the New Hebrides group. The coast tribes were attacked by a powerful irland tribe, and several villages plun- dered and burned. The hill tribe, led by Nandai, a chief whose authority is exten- sive, attacked the mission of the New Hebrides Society, whither severaktraders had gone for safety. The assailing blacks ‘were driven toward the hills, whence they made a number of raids on the coast vil- lages, plundering and #urning. Letters have -been sent to the French authorities asking that a warship be esnt to prevent further massacres. Four year ago, Nandai's father,. who was considered the most powerful chief on the island at that time, magsacred the entire population of a village of a neigh- bering tribe, besides murdering several traders. For this act his own village was bombarded by sailors from a French war- ship. All of his huts were destroyed and ! he was killed In the fighting. At Pentecoste (or Whitsuntide Island) the natives are said to be at war among themselves. The trouble was indjpectly due to an epideriic, which the natives be- lieved was caused by their enemies on the island. According to mail advices from Sydney, severe earthquakes have been causing much alarm at Adelaide and neighboring places, which are violently -shaken. The citizens were thrown gnto a panic by heavy subterranean rumblings, and then hclises and buildings were rocked to and fro, chimneys brought down and much damage to property done. The night of the earthquake was very dark and the people were terrified. Theaters and con- cert halls were quickly deserted, the crowds rushing panic-stricken to the street. Experts said afterward that a very little more force would have ruined the city. cured at Troubridge, where the light- house, built at a cost of $30,000, collapsed, burying the keeper in the ruins. Advices state that the bark Timaru of Sydney has been burned at sea. She left Sydney for Wellington with a general cargo and was seen off the New Zealand coast on fire. The Miowera brings letters from the master of the Scottish Hills, overdue 119 days to Adelaide. She had jettisoned her deck cargo of 130,000 feet of lumber three days out from Puget Sound. The captain says the fact that his vessel's hull is foul accounts for her long pas- sage. The bnrk Cardigan Castle, which has arrived at Sydney, had a rough passage She was on her beam ends for days as a result of mountainous seas caused by hurricanes. It seemed during the gales that the vessel could not .survive the storm. Livingston Jenks is thoroughly qualified for the office of Superior Judge.

Detective Bailey brought back from To- ledo, Ohio, last night a man named W. H. Clise, who was held there on a war- rant issued in this city on the complaint J4of Mrs. Mary Simpson, who charged him with having robbed her of $1100. She al- leges that Clise, with whom she was rooming at the Oaks lodging-house Third street, disappeared on September 19 last, after robbing her of nearly all the money she had. He was traced to Toledo, Ohio, and held by the authoritjes there pending the arrival of a detec from this city with the warrant. Mrs. Simpson claims to have been a nurse in the hospitals in South Africa during the Boer war and while there met Clise, who was employed as a scout for the British troops. He had gone to South Africa as a soldier In a Canadian regi- ment. When the war ended Clise and Mrs. Simpson came to ‘San Francisco on the same steamer. The woman had about $1800, and on Clise’s advice deposited the money in the Wells-Fargo Bank, f!om which she withdrew it on Clise’s Te) resentation that he had a good investme for it. She placed it in her trunk and one morning she awoke to find the money missing. When Clise disappeared Mrs. Simpson swore out a warrant for his ar- rest. —————— WILL IS WITNESSED BY LIEUTENANT HOBSON Naval Officer’s Wife Testifies Before Judge Melvin, Recalling Well Known People.

Theodore H. Hittell delivered a unique | and most Interesting lecture last night at the Academy of Science: entitled “Pioneers in Death Valley.” e describ- ed the journey of W. L. Manly and John Rogers with their followers from Salt Lake to the Pacific Coast in 1840 and traced their determined steps from point to point and their valiant trudging along until they reached Death Valley, where many of the members of the expedition toward the gold flelds perished. Mr. Hit- fell told of the long tramp on foot by Manly and Rogers to bring to the sufferers and the weary sustenance and of their pushing fo d and arriving at San Fer- nando, where the Spanish received the footsore travelers and gave themi wei- come.

A number of men werc | talking In front of the hotel when Ander- son toek offense at some remark and at- tacked Wyrick. The latter slapped An- derson and scught to avold further trou- ble by walking away a short distance. Anderson further attacked Wyrick with a knife and was knockéd down with a stick of wood. Wyrick went to his saloon | and was followed by his antagonist. Wy- rick locked the doors and awaited devel- opments. Anderson began to batter the front doors and soon had them in a weakened conditlon, and Wyrick, who had armed himself with a revolver, shot through the door. The- bullet hit Ander- son in the left breast, near the heart. He lived a number of hours and suffered much agony. The body was viewed by a coromer's jury and Wyrick was exonerated.

The essence of nourish- ment—a predigested food. A | condensed fat made palatable {and acceptable to the most | delicate stomach. The first food a baby receives, mother’s mitk, is an emulsion. Scott’s Emulsion is the milk or cream of cod liver oil, and contains | the elements needed to supply the nourishment that may be lacking in a mother’s milk. If a babyis fat it is comfor- {table and happy; a thin, scrawny baby is never quite well, never thoroughly com- fortable. Its ordinary food may .not contain the right nourishment. For such a baby Scott’s Emulsion is intended. It supplies the needed nourish- ment as well as heat and fat; it makes babies comfortable. Why? Because Scott’s Emul- sion contains the elements that possess in the highest degree -the principles of nourishment. : Cod liver oil has for years been known as one of the | greatest foods in the world. It stands at the head of the list as containing, in a given quan- tity, the most nourishment of | ranyfood. But cod liver-oil in its raw state is repulsive. Weak _stomachs cannot retain it; | delicate tastes rebel against it. It was to overcome these { objections and still retain the full value of tha oil that Scott’s Emulsion was mntroduced. But it does more than offer the full strength of cod liver oil in a palatable form. It combines with the oil other splendid ingredients — hypo- phosphites of lime and soda and glycerivte. The proper and perfect combination of these, found only in Scott’s Emulsion, represents a most valuable food-medicine. The mission of the oil isto stop waste, supply the loss of flesh and furnish nourish- ment; the hypophosphitesfeed and sustain the nerve tissues and nerve centers besides stimulating the action of the blood; the glycerine furnishes bone material and marrow, upon which latter the blood depends. How are these results se- cured? By the easyactionand mild progress of Scott’s Emul- sion through the body. Being partly digested it does not tax the stomach; being perfectly { blended it is quickly and easily assimilated, that is, distributed with exact regard for the par- ticular need of each part of the body. On every package of the genuine Scott’s Emulsion there is a trade mark label of a man with a fish on his back. We will send a sample free tr anyone on request. SCOTT & BOWNE, 409 Pearl St. New York.
