Had John Philip Sousa been at the Tivoll Opera-house last night, which he was not, | his ornamental mustache would have curled with the delight at the way his opera of “El Capifan” was received. It reeks with Sousa’s famous “El Capitan March,” which is repeated in varlous phases and is full of music, which is of the brass band sort, but scored up for voices. It was given at the initial per- formance at the Tivoll with a vocally | strong singing cast that took in Btevens, Cunningham, I.ee, Fogarty, Jacques, Formes, Myers, Roma and Davis. The bulk of the work fell to Stevens and Annle Myers, but Lee sang one song in the first act that went well. Davis had a good song in the second act and Réma figured vocally with good effect. Taken altogether, the opera is dependent upon the ensemble to a very great degree, and that was all right. The choruses went oft with vim and the orchesira developed along the brass band lines amazingly well. Stevens and Myers were both very funny. They were a host in themselves. Myers | were compelled to respond to several cur- | marches and dances caught strongly. | Andes. | at the Tivoli th. | remembered by | 3 | star in | the villain “‘taking the count,” | George Fuller, was never more piquant.

Britt had | his audience “‘groggy” in every round of | the melodrama. There was no need to s hissed the villain will be those who occupied the plush seats. Since his appearance as a “The Bowery After Dark” Britt has improved. He declaims better and does not use his hands as though he were about to deliver an effective punch. Jimmy has a “fat” part and he makes the best of it. In the first round he folls the villain; in the second he uppercuts | him and has him going; the third finds | Jimmy delivering big words, which and fourth Jimmy scores a “knockout.”'* sides this, Britt boxes three rounds with a likely fellow with the gloves. Harry Corbett was time-keeper and Eddie Graney refereed the bout from the wings, as he did not have his dress suit with him. Jimmy received some handsome floral pieces and made his usually nice little speech. He scored the biggest hit of his career and bids fair to make Richard Mansfleld, Nat Goodwin and other stars 100K to their laurels, George P. Webster does splendid work as Bonivar, the villain.

BANK 15 WINNER ON_THE APPEAL § Federal Justices Decide a Mortgage Tax Case. Several Opinions Affecting Other States Are Handed Down. The United States Circuit Court of Ap- peals handed down the following decision The Anglo-Californian Bank, Ltd., vs. Eliz- abeth Eudey, Frederick Eudey and Alexander Eudey, executors of the last will of Henry Eudey, deccased. Judgment reversed with di- rections to the court below to enter judgment for the bank with costs. The action was begun by Henry Eu- dey in his lifetime. The complaint alleged that the Gover Mining Company, about Mag 1, 189, mortgaged to the bank for $15,000 certain mining property in Amador County. The mortgage was assessed to the bank and the taxes not being paid, the property was sold to the State. After Eudey became ‘the owner of the record title on foreclosure proceedings he de- manded that the bank should pay the delinquent taxes, Interest, percentages and penalties to the State. The bank re- fused and Eudey sued to recover the him to the State to re- | move the State’s lien on the property. | Suit was brought fn the United States Circuit Court and judgment was rendered | in favor of Eudey and against the bank. In reversing this judgment the Circuit | Court of Appeals say that it is true that | by sections 4 and 5 of article 13 of the constitution of California and section 3716 of the Political Code it is made the duty of the mortgagee to pay the mortgage tax, blit it appears from the record that the assignment of the mortgage in ques tion, made by the bank to the Abner- Doble Company, was made upon the con- that the company, its successors igns, should assume to pay all assessed, or that might be as- sed thereafter, upon the mortgage. Bu- dey must be held chargeable with a knowledge of the public records, which imparted knowledge of the facts that the | assignment of the mortgage carrfed with | it the obligation to pay the taxes that had been or should be assessed against it or the moneys secured thereby.

Captain William Brisco, formerly in command of the Southern Pacific Com- pany’s sfeamer Thoroughfare, whose 1l- cense was suspended for six months for | running into the Southern Pacific Com- | pany's steamer Transit on April 7 of this vear, received but cold comfort yesterday when Supervising Inspector Captain John Bermingham decided adversely to the ap-l peal. The following Is the summing up: | The appellant submitted the evidence taken | before the lower court as the evidence In his case on appeal to the supervising inspector, who, after giving the same due consideration, has arrived at the conclusion that the appel- lant is entitled to no rellef at the hands of the supervising inspector, as he undoubtedly drove his vessel forward in a reckless race with the Transit for the same landing in a | ferry slip, mever halting until the vessels | tically came in contact with considerable | violence in the mouth of the slip, where they | became jammed. Neither of ‘these large | steamers would give way to the other, but kept golng regardless of consequences, which must have appeared disastrous to the naviga- | tors of both vessels—which is a clear illus- | tration of the truth of the old adage, “An | ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure.” | The opinion of the lower court in the case | of the appellant is sustained, and it is o or- dered.
