The quintet give an exhibition that has never been excelled in this city and in both single handed and|] team work offer more than was ex- | pected. ! One feature of the show last night | was the appearance of Jimmie Britt in the audience. The victor of the last fistic encounter fought in this city | walked up the center aisle with his! | friends and befare he reached his seat received an ovation. Cheers were; heard from every part of the house | and the popularity of the champlon | was apparent. Calls were made for a | speech, but Britt refused to make one, | but bowed modestly to his admirers. | Wesson, Walters and Wesson pr | sent a farce, “Hotel Repose.” It was full of action and the plot was good. ' Coakley and McBride came second on the programme and gave the audience new gags and jokes. Their work was | | good and they received much applause. | | Mazuz and Mazett, in a sketch, “The | | Brakeman and the Tramp,” did clever | | acrobatic work and the make-up of the | | tramp was original and characterlstic. | James H. Cullen, known on the bills | as “The Party From thé West,” sang| | several comic songs, including paro- | dies, and retired with honor. La Belle Guerrero, assisted by Du-‘ | faure Philippe, in pantomine work, | | continues in her sketch “The Rose and | { the Dagger.” B Clifford, the | | “Broadway Chappy,” offers a bunch of i new jokes and songs and is called be- | fore the curtain several times. | Taffary’s dogs are on the list of hold- | overs and the little animals perform with almost human action. Adelina | Roattino and Clara Stevens repeat | their singing and dancing act and are | as popular as they were last week. | & T gL ]‘ Anna Eva Fay, the woman magi- | | cian, appeared at the California Thea- | | ter last night in a series of tests which | she characterizes as “somnolency.” A | packed house greeted Miss Fay and { her wonderful mind reading and mag- | ical acts created a deep impression on | her audience. Three gentlemen were ! called upon the stage in the first part! of the performance to examine the va- rious equipments. The woman magi- | cian introduced some wonderful feats, | such as playing various musical in- ! | struments and transforming different | articles while her hands were tied be- hind her back. She then cut herself | loose with a knife borrowed from one of the spectators. | But the most interesting part of the performance was the mind reading test, the last on the programme. Each person in the audience was requested to write a question on a piece of paper | and then sign his or her name. Miss Fay was blindfolded and she readily | picked out different persons in the au- | dience and answered their questions. | | Some of them were very funny and | | created a furor of applause and laugh- | | ter. The Fitzpatrick family and John | Lemuele, a monologist, who appear with Miss Fay, were very entertain- ! ing. A series of moving pictures was | shown between acts. —_—— FISCHER'S THEATER WILL BE ENTIRELY REMODELED | | | Front of Bullding Will Be Torn Out | and Improvements Call for Ex- | penditure of $15,000. | Fischer's Theater is to be entirely | | remodeled at an expense of $15,000. | The O'Farrell-street plavhouse will be | {in darkness for two weeks after the | | run of “Kismet.” i | When completed the theater will be | one of the safest and most complete in the city. The entire front of the bulld- ing is to be torn out and two wide | stairways leading direct from the bal- cony to the street will be constructed. | | The main entrance will be forty feet | lin width and one of the handsomest in |the city. By moving the bar and la- {dies’ parlor into the basement the | | seating capacity will be increased 300 | | seats on the ground floor. ‘ | The plans call for an addition of 500 | { incandescent lights, so arranged as to | give a brilliant effect, but not dis- | | tressing {o the eve. The house is to | I he entirely redecorated and the color | scheme will be in Nile green and gold. | New carpets in cardinal red will be | laid in the aisles, boxes and ladies’ | parlor. A complete system of fire- fighting apparatus will be installed, in- cluding perforated pipes and auto- matic sprinklers on the stage. The aisles, entrances and exits will be con- structed to conform to the theater or- dinance. a The management will also look to the comfort of those behind the foot- lights by refurnishing the dressing- rooms and providing better heating facilities, so as to minimize the danger of the principals and chorus contract- ing colds. | | PERSONAL.

FBaton, the organist and director. In spite of the very wet weather a big assemblage of worshipers ventured out to render devotion and hear the marvelously beautiful and interpreta- tive music of a master. Organist Eaton had nine soloists, in- dependent of his large and efficient choir, and the manner of the rendering of the sclos and choruses was almost thrilling in effectiveness. And with the accompaniment of the great organ, nothing indeed was lost from the su- perb religious work. The persons in the cantata “‘Calvary” are the Apostle John, the Apostle Peter, Judas Iscariot, Mary, the disciples, Caiaphas, Philo, Nicodemus, Joseph of Arimathea, the witnesses, the priests and the people. Those among the congregation last night who have had the rare opportu- nity of hearing -Spohr's work by the great choirs of the East or abroad would with full justice and without bias place the rendition at Trinity on | equal ground with the best that has been done vocally or instrumentally for the composition in other musical cen- ters, The soloists were Miss Millie Flynn and Mrs. Max Warshauer, sopranos; Miss Una Falrweather and Mrs. Nelson Lawrence, contraltos; Chester Rose- krans and A. G. Davis, tenors; Peter J. Osken, C. V. Lane and G. 8. Wanrell, bassos. - The prayer service before and at the conclusion of the cantata was conduct- ed by the Rev, Dr. O'Mara. Every afternoon this week there will be evensong at Trinity at 4:30 o'clock and Mr. Eaton will direct the soloists and full choir at a special musical serv- ice at 8 o'clock Wednesday night, when Stainer's cantata, *“The Crucifixion,” will be given. ESCAPES DEATH BY A MIRACLE Wilson Contant, a Gripman, Badly Injured by Being Dragged in Front of Car ‘Wilson Contant, a gripman on a Sac- ramento-street cable car, was serious- 1y injured last night in an accident that came near costing him his life. That he esaaped being ground to death under the wheels of his car is considered a miracle by passengers that witnessed the accident. Contant was in charge of the grip on car 520 and was making an in trip toward the ferry. The misty rain of the evening had gathered on the front window of the dummy to such an extent that it was almost impossible for him to see ahead. While the car was on the down grade between Gough and Franklin streets Contant lowered the window and, lean- ing out, started to clean it. Before he had fairly commenced the work the small double doors of the dummy sprang open. Contant's feet were braced against them and as the doors burst open the unfortunate gripman | slipped through them and fell in the | street in front of his car. In falling | Contant grabbed hold of a stanchion {and held on. The fender of the car | kept the man from being run over, but the dragging over the rough street had its effect. Among the passengers on the dummy were three Japanese who, by their shouts, informed the conductor, T. J. Leyhe, of what had occurred. Leyhe rushed to the front and, releasing the grip, stopped the car. Contant was picked up and cared for until the patrol from the North End station arrived and conveyed the in- jured man to the Central Emergency Hospital. An examination by Drs. Millar and Pawlicki showed that Contant had re- ceived a severe fracture of the hips and that hoth ankles and his collar bone were broken. The doctors express the opinion that Contant’s injuries are not fatal. e The Satisfactory Way. “The pleasure is mine,” said the en- gineer, as he brought the train into Chicago on time to the second. “From San Francisco here the pleas- ure has bheen mine,” sald the merchant to his son. “The ‘CALIFORNIA LIM- ITED' is the finest train I have ever traveled on.” MORAL: The Banta Fe is the satis- factory way. If interested ask about it at 641 Market street, San Francisco. * MERRY MAKERS Sons of Prominent Citizens Give Minstrel Jubilee to Aid Emanu-El Sisterhood —_— SHOW MARKED ABILITY Brilliant Audience Applauds the Singing and Dancing of the Talented Amateurs The amateur mingtrel jubilee given | at the Columbia Theater last night for | ADVERTISEMENTS. Colored Dress Fabries ) Spring wear. the benefit of the Emanuel Sisterhood was a success, and the coffers of that | worthy institution will have to be in- | creased to hold the large receipts de- | rived therefrom. i The audience, which packed the the- ater, was almost entirely in full oven-l ing dress and presented a brilliant ap- | pearance and bestowed unstinted ap- plause upon the clever young psrlorm-l ers, who ranged from about 15 to 18| years of age. The minstrel show opened the first | part. Seated upon the stage were 40 | aspirants for histrionic fame, arrayed in faultless fitting tuxedos, faced with | brilliant crimson satin. All were | blacked up except the interlocutor. The songs were fresh and new and utor, showed the ease and self-compos- ure of a professional and kept the show from lagging for an instant. The second part was made up of a| sort of semi-fairy spect entitled “The Dandelion’'s Escape, described | on the programme as being “a rollick- | ing rhythm of rot.”” The honors of this | portion of the bill fell to Woody Col- | man, who is a natural comedian and | entertainer as well as a splendid stage dancer. In his act Colman had the as- sistance of five stalwart ballet dancers whose get-ups and wigs were decid- edly reminiscent of the style affected by Gertie Emerson, late of Fischer's. The finale act was entitled “The Be- wildered Buttercup,” in which Morgan Gunst and the full company sang “Ma | Curley Headed Baby.” The floral offerings were so numerous that it was found impossible to hand them over the footlights, so they were piled up in a pyramid in the foyer. Following was the programme: Part I—Minstrels. Interlocutor, Morgan A. Gunst; Elkan Gunst, Elkan Voorsanger, Edgar | Sinsheimer, Fred Kahn, Charles Cooper, Victor Pollak.

In the morning a | conference meeting was held in Sun- | flower Hall, 305 Larkin street, which was conducted by Mrs. Sarah Seal. The proceedings of the convention | consisted of instrumental and vocal music, addresses and the receipt of messages said to be from spirits by various mediums, which were delivered to many in the audience. Particularly striking in this line was the work of | Mrs. Dora Akers, who gladdened many hearts by wordg of comfort she said came from loved ones long dead. The convention was presided over in a highly satisfactory manner by J. Shaw Gillespie, who delivered an ad- dress of welcome to the resident and visiting delegates. Mrs. Anna L. Gil- lespie, who was to have delivered an address during the evening session, was | confinéd to her home with illness and was unable to appear. The main fea< ture of the convention was the address in the evening of J. Stitt Wilson, the well-known socialist, who delivered a lecture on socialism, its achievements and its aims. The lecture received the closest * attention from the audience and the cpeaker was fre- quently applauded. Mrs. R. S. Lillie, one of the noted workers in the field of spiritualists, made a_forcible de- fense of the doctrine and Mrs. Addie L. Ballou, who admits to fifty-five years spent in similar work, spoke in- terestingly for half an hour.

SANTA ROSA, March second mate of the steamer Alcazar was drowned at Elk last evening about 8 o'clock. The man lost his balance and fell into the sea, and be- fore a boat could be lowered to his assistance he sank from sight. The night was dark and the water rough. and the mate was clad in his rubber coat and boots, which prevented his remaining above the surface long. A sailor sprang into a boat, which was lowered to search for the mate, but he could not handle the boat alone and made for the beach, which he succeeded in reaching. The drowned man was a Swede. 27.—The Candies Checolates Bonbons Given Away Free With Teas, Coffees, Spices Baking Powder It Pays to Trade at Gireat American Importing Tea Co’s Stores 210 Grant av. 1819 Devisadere 3006 Sixteenth 521 Montg'y ave. 2518 Mission 2732 4th | { | [ 1419 Polk 705 Larkin 855 Hayes 52 Market. 148 Ninth 483 Fourth !
