For several months the parlors in this city have been making preparations for the. event, which is expected eclipse anything that has heretofore been undertaken in this line. It is thought that thls movement has greatly strength- ened the fraternity, as speakers have been sent to every one of the twenty-four pariors In San Francisco to urge that hereafter no one be admitted who 4s not 4 man of high character and industrious habits. All the parlors report that their respective lists of candidates for the ini- tiation to-night embrace men who will be a credit 1o the organization. Native Sons' Hall, where the exercises are to be held, will be illumined by elec- tric displays emblematic of the work of the order. Palms and potted plants will be used in great profusion. Tc signify the patriotic purposes of the fraternity American and bear flags, besides bunting and banners, will make up a large part of | the decoration. No effort has been spared to make the hall present an ap- pearance in keeping with the importance of the occasion. Stanford Parlor’s uniformed drill team, captained by Rudolph H. Schleuter, will’l act as an escort té the officers and initi- ates and will give an exhibition of its drill work, for which they have been long | practicing. Music will be furniched by a | selected orchestra composed of members | of the order. In the front of the hall the grand offi- cers, past grand presidents and joint ini- tiation committee will be seated in a | body. The candidates will be seated on | the sides, facing the middle of the hall, and the members who come to witne the ceremonies will sit in the rear of the hall and in the galleries. The exercises are open to all members of the order upon their giving the usual signs and pass- words entitling them to admission to a parior. Three prizes will be awarded to the parlors presenting the largest percentage | of candidates. These consist of handsome American and bear sltar flags, hand-em- rcidered in silk, South San Francisco *arlor will undoubtedly carry off the first rize, as it will have sixty-five men initr sted. Grand President Lewis F. Bying- ton will make the presentation address. The Initiatory team of officers consists | of the following named: Past precident, Supreme Justice Charles H.

We may say we are So sorry it happened, but we are privately certain that the two young people | should thank their pverlasting stars for finding ouvt in time that they were not really in love. This may safely be given | as the reason for the breaking of nearly | all plighted troths because were the par- ties deeply in love they would be unable to see each other's faults with an X- | ray, while an apparently well meaning | but meddlesome friend would make no impression whatever, To be sure the gossip does not always realize how far the love affair has gone { until the engagement is announced and even then she feels it is not too late to warn one or the other, sometimes both, of their eminent disaster. When the “warning” takes root the vride or groom- elect is not madly in love and the en- is luckily, if not happily, | gagement broken. Two weddings in the islands this week { will form a surprising sequel to a love story that was wafted to us some months ago when the engagement of Miss Kate Cornwall and Frank E. Thompson was | announced. Miss Cornwall is a stunning girl and always attracts admiring atten- tion. She is a cousin of the Macfarlanes and a sister of Mrs. Jimmy Walker, who is quite a social leader in Honolulu, but does not. go out much. Mr. Thompson is a bright and rising young attorney of Honolulu. The wedding was to have taken place last February and the trous- seau was completed in January, but while it was yet morning the young people dis- covered they were not really in love af- | ter all and the wedding was indefinitely | postponed., Each will be -married this | week, however, to a later choice. To-day | Mr. Thompson will wed Miss Ella Lewis, | a sweet voung girl with flaxen hair. The | wedding will take place in Manoa Valley { at the home of the bride. On Thursday | Miss Cornwall will wed Arthur Braymer, | at Central Union Church in Honoluiu. | Mrs. Jimmy Walker will be the bride’'s | only attendant and I believe the wedding wiil be a large affair. Verily, all's well that ends well. { . . | Now that we are on the subject of broken engagements, I might whisper the reason Miss Catherine Du Val did not merry Lieutenant Charles Stone, but it 1s such an open secret that you probably know it already: The girls are say! that the lieutenant wanted to be trans- ferred to another regiment so he could be stationed here for some time, in which case Miss Du Vall would have married him. The transfer could not be accom- plished, however, which means the Philip- pines in the spring, and straightway the favor of the bride-elect began to wane, | for she was not used to the Orient. Lieutenant Stone's engagement to an army girl, Miss Catherine Bonesteel, is now made public and he will go to the Philippines alone. The new bride-elect has grown up in the army. She is a daughter of the late Major C. H. Bone- steel and granddaughter of Brigadier General Oliver Green of the Cosmos Club. Miss Bonesteel was once said to be en- HOTEL THEVES IRE PERATING Complaints Are Lodged by Two Prominent Hostelries, The police are diligently searching for a couple of young men who have been rob- bing rooms at various hotels during the last two weeks. The latest report of their operations came in yesterday from the Tremont House on Kearny street, where a raflroad contractor, on returning to his room, discovered that the door was bolted on the inside. He heard some one mov- ing in the room and went downstairs and notified the night clerk.- When the door was forced the room was found to be in a state of confusion and a revolver and a razor were missing. Evidently the thieves had been frightened away before they secured more valuable plunder. The man whose room was robbed is in the habit of carrying large sums of money | with him and the attempt to loot his apartments is believed by the police to be the result of a plot on the part of two | young men who rented the adjoining room after they had ascertained he was pos- segsed of considerable money. They gain- ed entrance to the room by climbing over a fire escape and getting through the window. When the alarm was ‘raised they disappeared, leaving behind them a valige filled with clothes and some photo- graphs, which the police believe were stolen from some other hotel. Detective McMahon was detailed to look out for the thieves. v A similar crime was committed at the California Hotel last Tuesday night, when a guest lost jewelry valued at "100 De- tective Tom Gibson was detailed on the from New York for Cherbourg and Ha and proceeded. ¥ gy L) case and arrested one of the bellboys, Troth Is Broken and All Ends Well.

Every one is interested in the Oriental Symposium to be given by the California Club next Saturday afternoon at its club rooms. These clever women are always getting up something new and making a rattling success of it and the new affair is still more promising because it will be so unique in character. I believe a fea- ture of the occasion will be an odd col- lection of Philippine nheadwear to be loaned by Douglas Young, formerly con- nected with the Philippine Clvil Govern- ment. Mr. Young's fad for two years past has been collecting hats of all sorts worn by the natives, and the assortment includes everything from the combination gourd hat and rain coat of Cagayan of Northern Luzon to the headgear of the warrior. Some of the specimens are of such manufacture that months are re- quired far their completian and the setret of their making is handed down in cer- tain families from one generation to an- other. Mr. Young will be much in evi- Gence on Saturday to explain his rare hats and exhibit fabrics, arms and other curios obtained from the Insurgents. Madame Emilia Tojetti, who is at the head of the symposium committee, al- ways makes things inieresting with her enthusiastic nature, good taste and artis- tic judgment. Of course, it would not bei an Oriental affair without tea, and Mrs. C. 8. Fonda has this feature in charge. The decorations, which are to be elab- orate and in keeping with the occasion, have been designed by Mrs. Emilia Kal- isher, assisted by Mrs. L. Eugene Lee, Miss McElroy, Miss Ball, Miss Murray, Miss Greenhood, Mrs. Buckus, Mrs. R. E. Mulcahy, Mrs. Louis Hertz, Mrs. Edward L. BaJdwin, Mrs. Horace Coffin, Mrs. John | R. Hanify, Mrs. Snedaker and Mrs. Adolph Meyer. Dr. Yamel Kin will lecture upon “Glimpses of the Orient” and an original play, “The Widow Chang,” will be pro- duced, to say nothing of surprises that will brighten the afternoon. Tickets are going as only tickets can with a large club of zealous members who Interest their friends. . Miss Eugenie H. Hawes, who left on the Korea a few days ago for a three years' trip around the world, was the guest of honor at a breakfast given by Miss Constance V. Lawrence on Thursday last. The favors and decorations were Oriental. Those present to say bon voy- age were Miss Hathaway, Miss Bessie Baxter, Miss Viola Plercy, Miss Rachel Hovey, Miss Beatrice Spivalo and Miss Harriet Thompson.

TACOMA, Wash., Nov. 9.—Hongkong advices state that there is a great revival in the slave trade in girls between Hong- kong, Canton and distant provinces. Hun- dreds of girls, chiefly of tender years, are known to be living in slavery in Hong- kong. The trade is carried on so secretly that it is doubtful if it can be broken up. In the secret quarters of the slave trade girls are said to be bought and sold daily. Lately there has been a large demand for good-looking girls from Hoi How, Island of Hanian, with the result that prices have more than doubled. At Hof How last month a farmer sold his moth- erless children, one of 3 years for $30 and one of 5 years for $6. Officials recently seized a man who had succeeded in sell- ing 130 girls before he was imprisoned. At Canton and Hongkong it is not unusual for girls under 10 to bring $100 and those of 14 to bring $200. e e e e S S Y ) who is still in custody, 2lthough the evi- dence seems to disprove his guilt. Nu- merous other complaints have come in from hotels and now the police believe that the work is being done by the two men for whom they are looking. ———————— 3 The deposits of the Bowery Savings Bank of New York aggregate $75,000,000.

New Turns Make First|Officers Tracy and Brown Night Hit at the Orpheum. Bills of Merit Produced at All the Local Play- houses. Lo The sfar performer Herne's good old play, “Hearts of Oak,” at the Call- fornia this week is a soft, dimpled, cooing little bunch of batyhood that had last night's audlence completely at her tiny toes. The young lady's big scene, in which she is tossed like a meal sack from one performer to another, is a triumph. She permits one actor to play “Pat a cake, pat a cake, baker's man,” with her with the most sublime good nature imaginable; goes off over the shoulder of another with her little heels in the air as if that were the position de luxe { for babies, and very properly whimpers a bit when her papa says *I am r-r-ruin- ed.” She touched the by no means hard- hearted audience that follows the Herne play in its tenderest spot, and the hon- ors are with the baby. After her at- tractive two feet two is another very taking child performer, Leona Evans, who does the usual Herne child with The others cf the com- J. Gross as Uncle Davy, Grace Estelle { Clarke as Chrystal and Emily McPher- son in a stunning little bit as Tawdrey, the ‘“model help,” being all well above the level of the road show. The play, with its dialect, saflor folk, babies and real Boston beans—smoking hot!—is familiar to all playgoers, and perenuially pleasing. Clean, wholesome and.dealing Wwith the plcturesque, simple life of a seafaring folk, it will appeal to a large class of playgoers and doubtless fill the California this week as it is acgustomed to fill other theaters. Next week “The Irish Pawnbroker,” with Sullivan, Mack and Mazie Trumbull as the stars, will materialize. RRASRRL The Orpheum presents’ an excellent bill this week, well entitled to the bounteous patronage it received last night. The house was crowded and hundreds who sought admission were turned away. The holdover acts were of the best and the new ones were alone worth the price of admission. Sparrow, “the mad juggler,” is so funny that he is compelled to laugh at his own turn. George H. Wood is behind the footlights in new attire and with a new bunch of clever specialties. Genaro and Balley, cake walkers, recelve their share of applause. The Dillon brothers, makers and repairers of popular songs, certainly made a first night hit. Their parodies on popular airs were well worded and their singing was good. They were encored un- til their stock of songs was exhausted. The three Nevarros continue to please in their acrobatic act. Smith, Doty and Coe appeared for the first time in S8an Fran- cisco as comedy musical artists. They are clever and introduce several new fea- tures. Lizzie and Vinie Daly opened in a high class dancing specialty and Evelyn Ormsby in popular songs. . . As offset to the strenuous modernities of “La Tosca,” the Tivoli offers as alter- nating bill this week the quaint old opera “Martha,” with Its familiar and charming melodies and simple story. The opera bas not been heard here for many years, and there will doubtless be a large num- ber of people desirous of renewing ac- quaintance with the pretty opera, as well as many others who will now have the happy opportunity of adding it to their repertoire. There is an excellent cast, in- cluding Tina de Spada, who will sing the title role; Collamarini as Nancy, Russo as Lionel, Dado as Plunkett and De Paoll as Sir Tristan. The opera will go to- night, Thursday and Sunday nights and urday matinee. “La Tosca” is crowding the house to its every corner at every performance, and is a production in every way eminently sat- istying. De Padova, Montanari and Agos- tini are all at’ their very good best in the opera, and the small parts are all filled in with competence, De Paoli and Cortesl deserving particular mention for their clever work as a sacristan and a soldier. “La Tosca™ goes this week, and its popu- larity points to its prosperous run to the season’s end. . o asle Undeterred by the “Florodora” snippets that every band, pianola and distin- guished hand-organist of the town has been dealing out with heavy hand for the last year, the crowd still goes Columbia- ward to get more. The houses have been of the record kind this week, and for people who like the kind of thing *“Floro- dora” is as good of it as is going. The present people sing better, and in Miss Hazard’s and Alf Wheelan's case, act bet- ter than last year, and the famous sextet is fully as fortunate in its interpreters as last year. Following “Florodora” will come the Bostonlans, with Grace Van Studdiford as the prima donna. The ever popular “Robin Hood"” is in the repertoire, and ‘“Maid Marian,” a sequel opera, will also be glven " during the season. ‘“Maid Marian” is by De Koven. R R The Grand Opera-house cffers this week, for the fifth and last week but one of iss Marle Wainwright's engagement, Tom Taylor's famous comedy, “An Un- equal Match.” The part of Hester Graze- brook, the village beauty, who marries above her station, affords Miss Wain- wright an excellent opportunity for the display of her capabilities. She appears first as the rustic maiden, simple, un- sophisticated, awkward, charming. Then comes her attempt to square herself with the Philistines, among whom she has married, and her final triumph over them in winning them to a slow knowledge that kind hearts are more than coronets. There are good acting opportunities for many in the large cast that will doubt- less be excellently cared for by the good company down at the Grand Opera-house. Next week for her farewell bill Miss ‘Wainwright will appear in her famous dual role in “East Lynne.” Bl “A Stranger in a Strange Land” will give the Alcazar people this week a chance to see what they can do with a very funny farce. The piece is one of the W. A. Brady and Joseph Grismer con- coctions and is good for a full evening's fun. The story twines about the embar- rassed young man who is shipped to the great West by a company of devoted rel- atives, who have prescribed a course of “roughing it for him. He does not get the .“roughing it,” but takes back with him a bogus Indian as a specimen of his friends in Buffalo, where he has been supposed to go. His uncle springs a real Indian upon the imitation child of na- ture, and all kinds of amusing complica- tions ensue. Next week “The Case of Rebellious Susan,” the clever comedy by Henry Ar- thur Jones, will be staged. . s ow “The King of Detectives,” an eighteen- carat thriller, will be the Central's shock- er this week. The players will be in the familiar haunts of New York in the drama, and there are all the hairbreadth escapes, wonderful rescues and striking situations that they usually contrive to enliven the evening with. Landers Ste- vens, the new leading man, has the title Make Clever Capture. Bl gy Thieves Confess to a Con- spiracy to Rob a Cigar Man. s Through a piece of clever detective work performed by Officers George Tracy and George E. Brown, three burglars, G. A. Gibson, Ed McShane and Edward To- malty of 1324 Howard street and their ac- complice, Sam Brooks, were arrested and ledged in the City Prison last night. The officers not only landed their quarry, but induced the men to confess to their crime. The burglary for which they were ar- rested occurred yesterday morning at 1 o'clock, and was of the nature of a cul- mination of a conspiracy to reb George Ferris, the proprietor of a cigar store at Sixth and Mission streets, of a portion of his stock. Ferris had determined to move his place of business, and in order to accomplish the change he intrusted about $100 worth | of his cigars, cigarettes and other mer- chandise to Sam Brooks to be kept by him until the move was made. Brooks took the goods home and then, according to the story he told last night, entered into a conspiracy with McShane, Gibson | and Tomalty to rob the room in which he piaced them. Brooks told the police that the other three went to his room at 24 Sixth street | at 1 o’clock yesterday morning and broke open the door and took the goods. He said that Tomalty was the one who | smashed in the door. After securing the cigars and cigarettes, the burglars sold as many of them as they could and di- vided the money. The burglary was reported to Ferris, the owner of the stuff, by Brooks, and he immediately informed the police. Of- ficers Tracy and Brown were at once detailed on the case. They suspected that | Brooks knew considerable more about the | ‘burglary than he had told Ferris. They accordingly placed him under arrest, and he then proved as faise to the men who were in the conspiracy with him as he had to Ferris who intrusted him with the goods. He confessed to everything and gave the names of his assistants. cShane was arrested at Ninth and Na- tdma streets and Gibson at Sixth and Minna streets. They both admitted their share in the crime, but declared that it was Tomalty who broke open the door. Tomalty was not caught until late last | night. He also confessed. Most of the stolen goods were recovered by Officers Tracy and Brown. L e o ] ] rele, and the rest of the clever company will assist. The scenic and mechanical arrangements will, as usual, be of the novel sort, and the bill will doubtess be | deservedly popular. . . . the sixth week of “Whirl-1-Gig” and ‘“Way Up East” at| Fischer’s Theater. The latter burlesque has made as big a hit.as the former, and the house roars with laughter at every | performance. New features will be added ! to-night. “Theé Geezer” is in rehearsal. ' CTE The clever thought reader, Dr. Alexan- der J. Mclvor Tyndall, will give two en- /tertainments at Fischer's Theater on Thursday and Friday afternoons of this week. It is Tyndall's first appearance | here for eight years, he having just | closed a tour of the world. His entertain- | ment will include many startling features that have not yet been programmed in this city. Seats are now on sale. SR There is a capital array of talent at the Chutes this week, including Rowe and Ferguson, comedy sketch artists; Fay and Morton, comedy jugglers; Cowie Ers- kine, an eminent contralto; the Marco | brothers, comedy contortionists; Maude | Merian, an Eastern singing soubrette, and Doherty’s canine circus. The animato- scope presents a new set of moving pict- ures, and the babies in the life-saving in- cubators are objects of undiminished in-| terest. To-night begins Requiem at St. Ignatius. } A solemn requiem mass will be cele- brated at St. Ignatius Church this morn- ing at 9 o'clock. The mass will be said | for the departed students of St. Ignatius | College. By a mistake it was annuonced that the mass would be said yesterday and a great many who are interested in the affairs of the church were disap- pointed. e Railroad Surveyors in China.
