THE

What n San Francisco journal Has
to Say of h Troupe and Play.
The S~trategists are to appear in Eureka
next week. The speciality Of the company
is pronounced the most mirth-provoking
representation that has been put upon the
boards in many a long day. The San
Francisco Alta gives some idea Of the play
in the following notice Of the first appear
ance Of the troupe in that city:
1.-THE Strategists is one OF the most
amusing farcicial comedies hat has been
presented to the San Francisco public for
many a long day. 1t is in four acts, and
moves the audience to repeated shouts Of
laughter from almost beginning to end.
The plot in brief has been described as
follows: Young Jack Ruttledge and Miss
Nellie Howard are in love their respective
fathers disapprove of the match young
Jack, who prides himself on his strategy,
proposes to utilize this gift in gaining the
consent Of the respective governors -
the main evidence Of his strategetic powers
seems to consist in his ability to disguise
himself by clever "make-ups, so as
to pass himself off successfully, in turn,
for his wi father and the elder Howard
so successfully, indeed, as to deceive Mrs.
Howard and her daughter themselves
and further, he seems to carry slowed
about his person the wigs and other arti-
Giles Of his disguise, and to have the power
Of transforming his personnel with a ra-
pidity that rivals the experts in this line.
Exactly how he accomplishes his purpose
through this device it is doubtful If any
one in the audience clearly understands it
after the play is over, or cares, for that
matter. 1t was enough that the trick
gave the opportunity for a long string Of
funny situations, depending mostly on
mistaken identity. The action of the piece
lies in the development of these opportu-
mites. The result, as can be imagined.
when the artists are thoroughly adapted to
their roles, is an unquestioned success of
laughter. Mr.. Polk had a very warm re-
ception, and played the chief role, a very
arduous one, in a very successful manner.
The leading lady, Miss Gilbert, is petite in
figure, handsome in face and person, and
a bright, vivacious and charming actress.
She won the hearts of her auditors as well
as amusing them. Harry Linden is a
sterling comedian, who developed the char
acter Of the irrascible Major to its full
value. Harry Bell had a small role. which
he gave in a neat and satisfactory manner.
All the smaller parts were well filled, and
from beginning to end "The Strategists
moved like clockwork. So thoroughly
amused an audience we have seldom seen,
and judging from the unanimous verdict Of
last evening the new combination, with
their new comedy, have made a decided
popular hit.

Our Reasons.

In fact, we sell all goods at San Francisco
prices, and NO HUMBUG. For the benefit Of
those who want to know how we sell Goods so
cheap, we will explain Our buyers are al
ways in the market, and are thoroughly con-
versant with the Dry Goods business, being
brought up to it from childhood, and therefore
know the texture Of any piece of Goods. and
the actual value thereof, and being in the
msrket all the time know when they see a
piece of new goods, and no old stocs that has
been in the store for years can be pslmed of
on them as being of the latest pattern. And
as we buy our goods for cash we get a certain
percentage which those who do not cannot OBJ
tain. These are some of the reasons why we
sell SO cheap. Another reason is we sell for
cash, thereby lessening our expenses. II we
had to keep 3 set of books we would need
more help. And again, we do not believe in
the theory of charging good customers with
the debts of others to make good their losses.

NEw YuRK, May l7.-An Albany special

give the Legislature power TO fill expira-

ALBANY, N. Y, May 1.-THE opinion is
