Indubi- tably if is not as a rival to Harold i Bauer that Blind Tom shines. His play ing, all by ear, is wonderful enough in that way, and it is further infornfed | with a pretty tenderness of tone and | feeling. He has, too, what would be called a neat technique, if it had been | made in Germany, and an astonishing memory. But as a serious pianist he is simply not on the map. Again, what the Orpheum wants is the freak. Blind | Tom is the best musical freak I know. | His recitals here of ten years ago at- | tracted musicians of all sorts through | his varied feats of memory and tone- | making. | He was supposed to be able to repeat | note for note anything that was played to him, and people were invited from | among the audience to furnish test | pieces. Needless to say, he could not | do this, but the number of right notes | he averaged, together with the gen- eral wonderful resemblance of the | transcription, was of the extraordi- nary things. However, the pianist was excellently received last night. Another good number on the bill, that | throughout is above the average, is {the dancing dervish Omar, in “An| Evening in Persia.” Mr. Omar, in a etting worthy of the Arabian nights | and a ballet skirt worthy of Held, sets himself spinning until every one but himself is dizzy, and ends up as sober as a Buddhist bonze.

The plot is one vast expanse of non- | sense, yet that nonsense is so ridicu- | lously funny and so fast and furious | that it touches the right spot and one | gees into ‘convulsions of laughter in- voluntarily.

Wood- i ruff Alexander, the tramp of the out- fit, has a great makeup and is a very versatile actor. Belle Gold and Ada Boshell, the fem- inine leading lights, make impressions. Both act well and Miss Gold is a very clever soubrette. The chorus is one of | | the best that has ever been seen here. | Each girl is petite and winsome and | their songs are all new and catchy.

PG — FATAL SHOOTING AT A COTTONWOOD RESORT » Uses a Pistol on Henry Tompkins, Who, It Is Alleged, Demanded Money, BAKERSFIELD, April 3. — Henry Thompkins was shot and mortally wounded last night at Cottonwood, about ten miles from this city, by N. H. Stoner, proprietor of a resort located at that point. Stoner, who is in jail, states that Thompkins entered the place with a knife in his hand and, demanded money. When refused, he advanced threateningly around the bar and Stoner, after warning him, fired. Stoner brought the wounded man to the hospital and then surrendered to the Sheriff, Thompkins died to-day. —_———— The Scenic Way.

She | FACTIONS GHT FOR DIRECTORS Annual Election of the French Mutual Benefit So- ciety Results in the Rout of Canac-Marquis ~Forces BEARNAIS’ SECURE DECISIVE VICTORY (. Bozio and His Supporters Are Selected to Manage Af- fairs of-the Big Associa- tion for the Coming Year ——— Two tickets and a bitter fight brought out. the largest vote ever polled in the annual election of the French Mutual Benefit Society, which conducts the French Hospital. The election of di- the main hall ‘of the Native Sons’ building, and out of a membership of more than 5000 throughout the State 1178 members were present to vote. So great was the interest in the election that several members journeyed from as far south as Riverside and Los An- geles to cast their ballots. The victorious side was known as the Bearnais ticket. The opposing faction represented the forces of Dr. Canac- Marquis, until last September chief sur- geon at the French Hospital. Balloting commenced at 1 o’clock, and from then until 6 o'clock, when the polls closed, a steady stream of voters poured into the hall and marked their ballots for the candidates they chose " BY A LABORER Robert Barnett, a Popular Politician of This State, Killed at Mexican Line PARTICULARS MEAGER Murdered Man Formerly In- ternal Revenue Collector and Chief Clerk at Mint Robert Barnett, formerly a leading Democrat of this State, was shot and instantly killed at the Taraca mine, in Mexico, of which he was superintend- ent, yesterday afternoon by one of the laborers in his employ. The report of the tragedy came to this city in a dis- patch to Hugh Reichenbach, president of the Taraca Gold Mining Company, from W. J. Hood, agent of the company in Mexico. The message was brief and only conveyed the information that Barnett had been shot and killed at | the mine by one of the native laborers. The Taraca mine is situated twelve miles west of Torres, a station on the Sonora branch of the Southern Pacific Railway in Mexico. Reichenbach im- mediately wired for full particulars of the crime and F. X. Collier, formerly superintendent of Captain Delemar’s Golden Gate property at Mercury, Utah, left for the scene last night to take charge of the property. From those acquainted with condi- tions at the mine it is believed the crime occurred as the result of Bar- | nett’s discovery of the theft of ore by one of the Mexican laborers. Consid- erable difficulty has been encountered in that regard since the company has been shipping to the Selby smelter at Vallejo, and Barnett was watching for the thieves. Barnett had been at the Taraca mine a little over a year as superintendent. Up to the time he left for Mexico he resided in this city. Mrs. Barnett to direct the affairs of the society for the ensuing year. There was an ab- sence of the usual bitterness between the two factions, and, aside from an occasional wordy argument between members of the opposing forces, there was no disorder. Two policéemen were on duty during the afternoon and aided in accelerating the balloting by keep- ing the members in line. BERNAIS TICKET WINS. It was eleven o'clock at night be- fore the ballots were counted and the result definitely announced, although an hour before that it was apparent that the Bearnais ticket had won by a heavy majority All fifteen of the di- rectors proposed by the Bearnals fac- tion were chosen. The ticket was headed by O. Bozio, well known in financial circles in this city and con- 18 a director, with the French- American and Swiss-American banks. During the last year he has acted as first vice president of the society and it is understood that when the direct- ors meet next Wednesday to choose officers he will be selected president for the ensuing yeat. Jjoined her husband a short time ago and was either at the mine or Torres at the time of the murder. Deceased was 55 years of age and was born of Scotch parents in Louisiana. With his parents he removed to this | State fifty-three years ago and settled in Colusa County in 1851. He was a man of sterling character and enjoyed the absolute confidence of all that knew him. He was one of the old line Demo- crats and a leader in the party. He served as Treasurer of Colusa County for several years, succeeding himself | four times. In 1884 he was elected to the Legislature from that county, but resigned to accept the Presidential ap- pointment as Internal Revenue Collect- or for the Fourth Internal Revenue dis- trict, comprising Northrn California and Nevada. Four years later he ac- cepted a position as chief clerk of the United States Mint in this city under Superinterident John Daggett of Sis- kiyou. P He was president from 1896 to 1898 and afterward a member of the bullding comimittee during the four /ears the present French Hospital was being erected. Since 1883 he has been a member of the society and at times of stress has aided it liberally with his private means. The other directors chosen to act with Mr. Bozio are A. Gless, Thomas Lacoste, V. Gardet, J. A. Bergerot, J. Bergez, J. 8. Godeau, C. A. Artigues, F. Cames, A. Roncovieri, J. B. Lacaze, J..B. Pon, B. P. Lapachet, Redmond Aguirre and G. Pouchan. Roncovieri, who was on both tickets, received the highest number of votes, polling 963. Dr. J. E. Artigues was chosen resident physician at the French Hospital over Dr. J. de Chantreau by a vote of 546 to 400. Dr. F. R. Orella and Dr. George M. Converse were selected as physicians to visit homes of mem- bers, the oniy other candidate being Dr. Ed. R. Berges. DIVISION OF SOCIETY. The division among the members of the society dates from last September, | when the directors asked Dr. Canac- Marquis for his resignation as chief surgeon at the hospital. He acquiesced in the demand, but a large number of his friends demanded that a special general meeting be called to consider the reasons for his removal. The meet- ing was held in October, last, and the | directors gave their reasons for de- manding Dr. Canac-Marquis’ resigna- tion. His adherents raised a storm of op- position, which ended by the directors walking out of the meeting, leaving their opponents no other alternative but to adjourn. = Since then a steady effort has been conducted by them to capture the board of directors at the annual election, which failed yesterday. In place of Dr. Canac-Marquis, Dr. Alden was installed chief surgeon last September. The annual report of the directors showed a prosperous condition of the society’s finances at the present time. —_————————— Trapper’s Oil cures rheumatism and neuralgia. Druggists, 50c flask.

ROBBERS KNOCK MAN SENSELESS Peter Clark Waylaid and Robbed Near Southern Pa- cific Railway Freight Sheds i Peter Clark, a laborer employed by Gray Bros.. was held up and brutally beaten by a brace of thugs early yes- terday morning near the Southern Pa- cific Railroad yards, corner of Fourth and Townsend streets. Clark was going home about 2 a. m., after visiting in the Potrero. He had missed the last car and had to.wend his way along the dark streets on foot. He says he got as far as the north side of the railroad yards on Townsend street, when two men jumped out from behind a box car and felled him to the ground by a blow on the head. Clark does not remember any more until he was brought to consciousness by C. P. Thompson, a clerk residing at 2142 Mission street. Thompson was going across Fourth street and noticed the form of Clark lying in the middle of the car tracks. He shook the dazed man, fearing at first that he had been hit by a train. When Clark came to he immediately felt for his watch and money, but both had been taken by the robbers. Thomp- son conveyed Clark to the City Hall Police station, where he reported his: loss.

After Meyer was discharged from San ' Quentin last December, he met another ex-convict at Redwood City and they stole a team of horses from James Curran. They came to this city with the horses and sold them to McLellan Gilmore, a liveryman at 174 Seventh street, representing that the animals were their own property. Meyer was arrested on a charge of grand larceny and was ,convicted by Judge Buck of San Mateo County and sentenced to tweo years in San Quen- tin. Gilmore was also arrested on a charge of grand larceny on a warrant issued by Justice of the Peace Hannon of San Mateo County and was held to answer. His bookkeeper, James H. Rainey, was arrested on a charge of perjury and Meyer was detained in jail at Redwood City as a witness against Gilmore and Rainey. , Gilmore has stubbornly fought the case, and after spending considerable money on two attorneys who were de- fending him, finally engaged George D. Collins, who interposed a demurrer to the information, which was sus- tained, but Gilmore was immediately arrested on another warrant issued by Justice of the Peace Hannon and the case has not yet been heard. Meyer went to Gilmore yesterday morning at his stables and demanded money from him to take him to Texas, hinting that if he were out of the way a conviction could not be obtained. Gilmore quietly notifled one of his stablemen to go in search of a policeman and kept Meyer in con- versation. The stableman returned, saying he was unable to find an of-’ ficer, so Gilmore ordered him and an- other stableman to take Meyer to the City Prison. eyer showeéd fight, but was quickly. overpowered and taken to the Southern Police station, thence to the prison. eriff Mansfield was he would send an officer to take Meyer back.
