The Directors of the Electric Street Rail
way will hold their first meeting next week
for the election of officers and transaction
Of business looking to the speedy construc-
ton of the new railway line in this city,
AS already stated, the rails for laying the
track from Twentieth street to Snowflake
Park-a distance of one mile-are now
upon the ground, and the work of prepar-
ing the grade and laying the track will
soon be proceeded with. The subscriptions
necessary for insuring the speedy building
of the road from Snowflake Park to Oak
Park-just outside of the city limits
which have also been made, will result in
not only the construction of that part OF
the line this spring, but will at the same
time very greatly enhance values in that
entire portion of the city, and lands ada
cent to the city on the southeast
The line when built will be about two
miles in length beyond Twentieth street
or between Twentieth and Oak Park-and
even if the remainder of the road, from
Twentieth to the Southern Pacific depot, is
not built at once people wishing to make
the full distance can do so by transferring
at Twentieth street and going down the o.
street line. This of course would make
an additional cost OF five cents, but ride
of nearly four miles for ten. cents very
largely gets away with going on foot
The hitch about the new line below Tween
tieth street is upon the question of sub
scriptions. 1t has not yet been determined
whether the line will be located upon NJ or
n street, and it is understood that the de-
cision, as between them, will be based upon
the extent of inducements offered by sub
scription along each of these thorough
fares. The M-street residents appear, at
the present time, to have the lead in pros
poets of location, and with the "push u
that many of its property-owners are pub
licly recognized as possessing, there will
probably be lively contest fer getting the
charter changed to cover that street, which
there would be no difficulty in doing.

minutes into the book in which a record of the
proceedings of the Board was kept,
he found that the President had
taken the book away and declined
to surrender it to him. This was done
to.prevent the Secretary from entering in the
book the proceedings. The act of the majority,
which was valid when done, could not be de-
feated in this way. The law does not require
that the Board should keep record of its pro-
eeedings; but if the law did require a record to
be kept of them, what was done by the Board
at its meeting but not inserted in the record
might be established by oral evidence. (Recla-
nation District No. 3. VS. Goldman, 65 CAL, 63s)
The evidence shows that the proceedings of the
meeting were written up by the Secretary as
soon as he obtained possession OF the book, and
that they are correctly entered. The conclu-
sion is that the election OF Michael 0'Meara as
Chief Engineer of the Fire Department at the
meeting held at Conran's house, July so, 1887, is
valid, and that he is entitled TO the Office, and
that the defendant has intruded into and
usurped the same.
The counsel for the plaintiff will prepare
findings and q judgment in accordance with
this opinion. JOHN W. ARMSTRONG, Judge.

ADJUSTMENTS.

CLUYIE OPERA HoUsE.-"Irma, the Waif'
was played for the last time last night.
Tonight, for the first time this season,
" Black Diamonds, in which Ben Cotton
takes his famous character. Banty Bob, :"
and Miss Idalene the part of Nora, the
Pride of the Valley" 1t is a play with
the scenes in the coal-minine region of
Pennsylvania, and involves strikes, coer-
cion, Mollie Maguireism, love, adventure
and heroism.
METRoPoLITAN THEATER. - he Pyke
Opera Company had a very large audience
last evening, and well pleased one.
Strauss opera "a Night In Venice" is a
capital comedy of well sustained interest,
and music that without being inspiring, is
brilliant, sparkling and embraces some of
the most charming songs, serenades and
quartets. The encores were numerous last
evening, and bestowed upon Pyke, Valegra,
Greensfelder and DeLange, and upon Misses
Winston, Manfred and the Pigeon sextet.
This latter was by young women in about
as little drapery as even the ballet ventures
to adopt as the minimum of costumery. 1t
was a clever imitation of the cooling OF
doves. The gem of the evening was
an interpolated song The Red Rose
by Miss Winston, which was given with
remarkable dramatic effect, and was a lyric
effort of such high order as to win the
most enthusiastic applause. The company
is deficient in male voices in the chorus.
Otherwise it is capable of very pleasing
comic opera work. 1t costumes hand
somely and is managed on the stage with
skill. 1t has the support of a good orches-
ira of eight pieces, directed by marked
ability. There are besides the orchestra
twenty-six people in the troupe, with
eleven leading singers and an accomplished
low comedian in the person of DeLange.
Miss Winston's and Miss Manfred's are the
principal voices, and these are well known
here. Mr.. Pyke and Mr.. Valegra have
been frequently heard here, and Mr.. Green's
fielder once in Cartoons company. To-
night Millocker's opera THE Beggar Stu
dent"
