The eighth public reception Of the San
Francisco Nationalist Club was held in

fair. The stage was artistically decorated
with flowers. The following programme
was rendered:

accompanied by Mate Hildebrand; closing adj
dress, Burnette G. Haskell.
Professor Wilmots address on "Nation-
alism" was a lucid explanation Of the prin-
cples and aim of the cause he argued for.
lie introduced his subject by relating a hor-
rible dream which disturbed his slumbers
the previous night. He had fancied the
riots on Labor day all over the world were
most disgraeeful, but when he awoke In
the morning he was delighted to find that
he could appear before this assembly with
out being subjected to the humiliation of
making excuses for excuses committed by
the laboring classes in their parades on
Labor day.
He claimed that Charles Dickens was the
most thorough-going ally that nationalism
has ever had. and that true religion and
nationalsm were inseparable. He said that
capital may be concentrated labor, but the
labor is not performed by the capitalists.
The President, Mrs. Ballou, addressed a
few complimentary remarks to the report
ers present, bidding them welcome to every
meeting of Nationalist. and thanking them
for the fairness with which they ever treat

BOUND To GET EVEN.
A Barn-storming Tour That Ends in til

a transforming Tour That Ends in the
Police Court.
j. P. Craig, who at one time acted in
cheap theaters in this town and subsequent
ly bloomed out as theatrical business
manager, was arrested yesterday on COM
plant of Rose Easton, an actress, on a
charge of felony enlightenment
Craig, it seems organized a company to
travel in the small interior towns, and got
as far as Dixon, Solano County. when his
company disbanded, as they would not go
farther from home without receiving their
salaries.
Miss Easton claims she compelled him to
give her note for $50 for salary due and
not paid This was the last straw that
broke the company's back, and she at
tached the property at Dixon. On the re-
turn journey she alleges in her complaint
that Craig managed to get possession of
her trunk from the railway company, rep
resenting himself as the business manager
of the travelling troupe, and therefore enti-
tied to look after the property. The trunk
contained jewelry and clothing, which were
valued at $500.
Miss East0n lost sight of it completely,
but last week heard that it was concealed at
1888 Eddy street, where Craig was lodging
She secured a search warrant yesterday,
and also warrant for the arrest of Craig
Ofhcer Cummings, who was Entrusted with
the service of these documents, searched
the premises but failed to find the young
actress property. After a tiresome hunt
through the various rooms he discovered
Craig hiding in a dark closet on the top
flour and placed him under arrest.
Craig's landlady at first denied that he
ever lived in her house, but when con-
fronted by the officer she unhesitatingly
said lie was the man wanted.
