not permit US to mention them, but we will tell you
this, when you come to Raleigh, don'tfall to come

Manager wyatt Returns to Take
Charge of Affairs.
For some days past the statement has
been circulated that Manager Wyatt, of
the Grand Opera House, intended 20
give up that house as well as the Los
Angeles Theater. Hearing that MIR.
Wyatt had returned from his trip with
his opera company, reporter called on
him last evening, and in reply to q1ee-
tions he said emphatically that he did
not intend to give up the Grand, and it
was his intention to stay in Los Angeles
as long as he lived. He said that he
had engaged stronger attractions than
ever for the coming season at the Gre 1d,
and that he would still continue to five
the people the best shows that come to
the Coast.
He had been relieved from his lease Of
the Los Angeles Theater at his own re-
quest, although Mr.. Creighton had de-
creased his rent three times and offered
to lower it still further if he would con-
tinue. He said, however, that he lad
lost all he could stand there, and did not
care to run any more risks, but would
stick to his "first love-" the Grand.
He said that his opera company had
done big business in San Francisco,
and that, the tide having turned, he left
them in the hands of agents while ms
came back here. The company will 20
to Portland, Ore, next Monday, where
an advantageous engagement has been

A CURIOUS ACCIDENTAL DEATH.

DIR. G. A. Cutler, of Ventura, has been
in the city for several days making ar
rangements with the Southern Pacific
road and with various producers and
dealers Of the locality about the exhibit
to be placed in the Chicago exposition.
1t is proposed to show the hundreds of
thousands of people who visit the great
annual fair at Chicago the agricultural,
mineral and manufactured products OF
Ventura and Los Angeles counties. DR..
Cutler, who has the matter in hand, is a
former Ohicagoan and originally came to
California with the Chicago colony,
which is now settled on the Simi ranch.
The exhibit promises to be a great
success, and will probably be striking
feature of the exposition. Space has
been secured by DR.. Cutler on the
ground floor OF the building at
one of the most favorable points to
attract attention.
The Southern Pacific will give free
transportation, and a large number of
dealers and producers have become in
terested in the undertaking and will con-
tribute produce of all kinds free of
charge. A large quantity of stuff has
been prepared for shipment from Ven.
tura county, and from the present outlook
this county will also be very well repre-.
sented in the exhibit.
The California on Wheels" will also
locate in Chicago during the time that
the exhibition is in progress, from Sep.
tember 9TH to October goth. The car
will stand on side track near the build.
ing, and will be visited by all who come
to the exposition. The special exhibit of
the southern counties will, however, be
all the more effective when contrasted
with the general exhibit of the entire

will be produced Karl Gardner's eight

In this play Mr.. Gardner first made his
venture as star, and he has been sue

"Vienna Flower Girl, /" O'clock Vender,"
"Jack in the Box, Alpine Guide, !" and

full Rose Coghlan, since her reputation
has been gained, has steadily refused to
exhibit herself in tights. A few years
ago as You Like II was played at Wal
lacks theater, and the coming appear
ance of Miss Coghlan in the shaped
dress of sRosalind' was looked forward
to with much interest. But she made
an innovation in the part and wore top
boots, covering both her calf, knee and
thigh, and as You Like 1t didn't draw.
1t was apparently not as they liked it.
Manager Pitou has at last persuaded her
to- drop this conservative policy, and
from being Tory in the matter of stage
costume, Miss Coghlan will become q
Liberal. Atany rate, there is scene in
Jocelyn where she enacts a boy and in
which she does not wear boots"

Hung Himself.

Word was received last night that ].
V. Sylvia, Of Wilmington, had committed
suicide. He was discovered hanging
from rafter about 7 80 o'clock last night,
and his body was still warm when he
was cut down. He was about 38 years
old, and leaves a family numbering six
or seven. He was an old resident of the
place, and was greatly respected by all
who knew him. 1t was supposed that
family troubles led him to take his life,
although no one seemed to know exactly
what they were. Coroner Meredith will
hold an inquest today.

A TRACK TO THE MAYNARD.
The District Commissioners Instruct
the Secretary of the Navy.

In reply to a recent communication from the
Secretary of the Navy in regard to the con-
struction of railway track from the Baltimore
and Potomac track to the Navy Yard. which
provided for in an act approved
March last, the Commissioners have replied.
that the statute in question only provides for
the track Ito be laid from point on the line
of the Baltimore and Potomac railroad
opposite the northwesterly corner of the
government reservation fronting on X
and L streets southeast" whereas the
proposed plan submitted represents the track
as connecting SO feet west of the west building
line of 9Th street southeast, running thence in
a southeasterly direction to and through
the said reservation. decision of the
Supreme Court of the United States rem
dered in controversy between the District of
Columbia and the B. and p railroad company
expressly declares that the Commissioners cam
not permit the construction of any track or
siding crossing any street, except in pursuance
of special authority of Congress.
In view of this fact the Commissioners have
to suggest that the track, when laid, shall be
laid SO as to conform to the authority granted
by Congress for its construction.
The plans submitted also contain track con-
Meeting with the line of the Baltimore and Po-
tomac railroad at the eastern end of the reser-
walton in question, and running in a southwest
erly direction to junction with the other
track at / street.
There seems to be no authority for the con-
struction of this proposed track, but the COM
missioners can, however, upon application,
grant permission to the railroad COM
ut their main line, as indicated, and running in
q southwesterly direction to the line of the
reservation. The control of the reservation is
under the War department.
