General Dramatic Notes.

Kate Castleton and her fellow Dazzlers have
met with very cordial reception throughout
California
"A Gold Mine," as given by Nat Goodwin,
scfntillates with wit, bristles with epigram and
corruscates with repartee.
W. A. Brady has the opening Of all the South
ern theaters with Bobby Gaylor in "sport Nc
Allister,' and is reaping the harvest.
Joseph r. Grismer and Phoebe Davis have been
playing very successful four weeks engage
ment at the Bush street theater, San Francisco.
Thomas W. Keene spent his vacation on his
farm, Castleton Corners, Staten island, chasing
potato bugs and driving reaping machine He
looks the picture of health.
The admirers of that school of comedy of
which Miss Kate Castleton Is such a brilliant
disciple, will probably turn out in large num-
bers at the Seattle opera-house next "Wednesday
night.
Kate Castleton is certainly first in her particu-
lar line. She is original always and not sue
cessfully initiated. Her success is not so de-
pendent on any particular talent, but on her de-
nghtful personality.
Manager Cordray personally Superintendent

hardt behind the scenes as we'll as the comfort
OF the patrons on that evening. He is entitled
to great credit for the complete manner with
which all the details were carried out
The London Standard says: ga Gold Nine
is a comedy with vein of serious interest, and
Mr.. Goodwin Is a comedian of genuine ability,
who can touch the sympathies we'll as pro-
woke the mirth OF his audience. Few American
actors have so soon established themselves in
the favor of a strange house, and this is the
more creditabie to Mr.. Goodwin"
1t in "a Gold Mine," which which will be
given by Nat Goodwin the first night of his en-.
gagement at the Seattle opera-house, that Mr.
Goodwin has made the greatest atistic success
OF his career. His fun is most infectious, but
his serious moments command attention, while
his pathetic scenes fully deserving OF all the
praise which they have called forth.

plentiful food for talk Of all sorts has occurred
by the slate unpleasantness' between the adju.
tant general of the state and the colonel of the
First regiment. Each man has his supporters
and opinions vary regarding the rights of the
parties in the premises.
Vigorous measures are being taken to forward
the matter of the pay of the militia for services
performed during the strike troubles in the
King comfy mines The militia claim that the
state ought to foot the bill, while the state de-
MES the responsibility, and answers that the
county is the proper debtor. In order TO avoid
the delays incident TO settling questions OF
proof, the parties to the controversy have agreed
upon certain set OF facts, framed an issue or
point upon which TIE supreme court will be
called upon to pass an opinion as soon as it con-
venes.
On Tuesday last Lieutenant W. III. Gorha,n. of
Company D, received the official notification
that the order for his reinstatement has been
signed issued and published. All the National
Guardsmen of the state are familiar with the
case. Lieutenant Gorham was charged with
conduct unbecoming soldier. He was tried by
courtmartal, found guilty and the sentence
pronounced was dismissal from the service.
The young officer felt innocent of the ofense,
and denied the authority OF the court which
tried him. He carried the case to the superior
court, and there secured a verdict In his favor,
and all persons were enjoined from interfering
with him in the performance of his duties.
Upon the verdict OF the civil court Lieutenant
Gorham reassumed his duties and threw all the
activity OF his nature into company work. The
governor waited until the time for appeal
was up, aud then upon expiration no appeal
having been taken the reinstatng order
issued.

Mr. Genrre Wesse1Ia


Seats are now on sale at Hausen's for "The
Dazzler." in which Kate Castleton appears at
the opera-house on Wednesday evening Bon
ME Kate Castleton finds in this play ample OPP
portunites for the display of the clever talents
that have made her name as familiar as house
hold words throughout the length ana breadth
OF the land, and gained for her the appellation
which fits so well as prefix to her name. Bon
ME Kate 10 a host in herself, and in addition the
managers have surrounded her by as clever a
lot of performers as ever bathed in the bright
rays of calcium. First there is
little Lena NerviIle, who will run
her charming sister artist close
second for honors, and who has sung and danced
herself into the hearts of the public by her
grace, agility and chic. The rest of the coterie
of artistic femininity who will play a part in
this two and half hours of jolly revelry are
Misses Jessie Hatcher, Helen Mortimer, Maggie
Emerson, Phyllis Allen and Eva Leslie OF the
male contingent Joe A OFT heads the list, one of
our youngest un-makers, but who has made
such rapid strides in his profession that he now
ranks with the best for artistic character work,
spontaneous humor and the true comedy in
stinct His work in "The Dazzler' last season
gained for him the highest praise of the
critics. He will be ably assisted by
such capable artists as Max Miller, Sherman
Wade, Martin 0'Neil. James F. Mcdonald, Bert
ram Bedell. Leo Wright and Harry Chase. This
makes one of the strongest combinations on the
road, both musically and dramatically, and
headed by the charming Castleton, who has
been bright particular star in the theatrical
armament, and a farce company which has al
ready received the seal of approval there is every
reason to predict for "The Dazzler" the most
generous patronage of the theater-goiug public
of this city The attraction is under the direc-
ton OF George II. Murray, manager of wide ex-
perience, and who brings to his business con-
duct OF the company a thorough knowledge of
the business and the needs and requirements of

EVERY WOMAN
Should be Beautiful

So says Jenness Miller, the famous
lecturer and writer on dress reform
and physical culture, and celebrated
writer in a medical journal says:
"Face powders and toilet preparations
have legitimate use in the toilette of
every woman and use properly made
need not, any more than the proper
use OF a perfume, displease any one,
while it can not be denied that they
add to the personal beauty and at
tractiveness and give to the wearer an
expression that can be interpreted by
any practical observer to mean that
THIS WOMAN IS NEAT AND CAREFUL
ABOUT HER PERSON AND HOLDS A JUST
PRIDE IN BEAUTIFYING HERSELF. In
the use of toilet preparations it is
easy to distinguish the well-bred from
the vulgar" Another well-known
authority, DR.. Arthur Dean Bevan,
professor of anatomy in the Rush
Medical College and P. A. surgeon
u. S. NJ. II. S., writes without re-
serve on a kindred subject. What
he says:

GONE TO HER ETERNAL REST.

The shadow has closed over the
pathway of Lucina E. Fletcher, and
with her mortality has clothed itself
with Immortality The many days of
alternate hope and fear ended in
night on Friday, June 18th, at S:45
p. m.
For her has dawned morning that
knows no close. The shock of death
comes upon the whole community.
Born April 7th, 1873, her whole life
has been spent in this city and her
smiling face and CHEEKY manner made
Lou" a welcome guest in every COM
pany and at all times. Wherever she
came she brought brightness with
her. ,-s
OF indomitable will and energy,
keen intellect and clear insight, she
was a leader at all times among her
classmates. To-day these classmates
feel that grievous and irreparable
loss is theirs. The whole community
share in their loss.
We tender to the afflicted family the
sympthy of a whole people. To the
mother especially do our hearts go
out with tears.
