seriously. Martin Welch thereupon
knocked Valooz down, and kicked him
so severely in the abdomen that he died

brought in by constable. WEIGH, who
did the kicking, has been arrested.

The thinking fad now in San Fran
cisco and Oakland is to imagine that the
Santa Fe company is pushing its road
down from Pacheco pass on one side of
the bay, with big Y at San Jose,
whence it shoots out another Enc to
Oakland. The man who does not see
this road steaming along in his minds
eye is looked down upon with serene
pity as a mental wreck.

ADJUSTMENTS.
The Nominee.


Mr.. Goodwin received last evening
the seal of approval from Los Angeles,
for the opera house was literally packed
with all the regular patrons and as many
more as could find places.
In The Nominee Mr.. Goodwin is his
old SELF The play is considerably super
ior to Confusion, and not equal to The
Gold Mine. 1t is what is termed "a
roaring farce,p and would be dreary
with anyone else in the title role.
1t appears as if the farce writer can
never free himself from two ideas-that
no plot can be funny unless based
on the escapades of gay husband, and
the acidulous utterances Of domineer-
ing mother-in-law. These two PROPOSE
tions are all there is to The Nominee, as
play, but with Mr.. Goodwin in the
main role it is really uproariously gay.
He is funny without putting himself
INTO perspiration in the attempt. A
flip OF the hand, confidential smile, a
colloquialism uttered in an everyday
voice-any of these is sufficient to make
the house guffaw from orchestra to
dome. The part OF Jack Med
lord, from what the public
knows of Nat Goodwin, fits him
like his makeup. 1t is the character of
tiippant, good-hearted but selfish man
OF the world, careless, witty and up to
date. There is no knock-down-and- drag
out fun IN his work, but it is laugh
making from start to finish.
Miss Amber plays most gracefully.
Her accent is peculiar, in hard to de-
line, provincial way, but in attraction of
person, as well as a sympathetic man
ner, and quiet force, she is admirable.
Mr.. Howard, as the efficient private
secretary to Jack Medford, Leopold
Bunyon at times almost shared the
power, OF fun-making with the star, but
he did not sustain an even excellence.
The mother-in-law of the comic pa-
pers and of the funny paragrapher was
pictured to dot by Miss Walters whose
towering person aided her greatly in
her scenes with Mr.. Goodwin.
The other members of the company
did what little they had to do with good
effect. No star ever travels with a good
support, but that of Mr.. Goodwin is
above the average throughout.
Tonight the nominee.
wv
Most everybody who is anybody knew
Miss Maud Rowan when sine was in the
social swim in this city couple OF years
ago. She comes back as leading lady of
Hoyt's Midnight Bell company, and will
play on Thursday evening at Manager
Wyatt's Los Angeles theater. The play
itseltand the company come highly rec
ommended, but the curiosity to see Miss
Rowan would alone be sufficient to take
all the fashionables to the first night.
x##
Mr.. Charles Dickson, on Thursday
night, will succeed Mr.. Goodwin at the
opera-house in farce called Incog. Mr..
Dickson has the credit of having been
about the best actor in leading iuve-
nile role. In his new part as star he
has been highly commended wherever
he has appeared.

The Duke Of Orleans Forced Flight,

A special cable dispatch to The STAR from
Vienna SAYS: The enterprise of certain Journals
has caused the precipitate flight from this city
of the Duke of Orleans, who was lately in st.
Petersburg. The prince arrived here last
week accompanied by Nine Melba. the we'll
known prima donna Of the Paris grand OPERA
and his friend, the Duo de Luynes. The party
took rooms at the Hotel Sacher, where Mme
Melba was registered as Nine. Armstrong Of
London, that being her husbands name. The
duke yelled his identity under different title
During the first two days the prince and his
companion INDUCED in long prone nades in the
Ringstrasse and Prater. but at the end OF the
week occupied a private box at the opera. This
indiscretioE proved fatal. as Nine. Meiba from
being attired in rose-colored gown and wear
ing many diamonds at once aroused the
curiosity of the audience, and during the Sec
ond act every glass in the house was turned
upon her. 1t was not long before the prince
was recognized by a noblenan in the audience
and Mime. Melba was also identified. In a few
minutes the news had circulated among the
boxes, and the prince realizing that he was
discovered beat hurried retreat. The follow
ing day the Wiener Tag1iah announced the dis
tinguished arrivals and in its next issue was
able to again insert their names under the head
Of departures, as the prince and the Duke de
Luynes hastily took the express for Brussels
while Mime. Melba left for Paris.

His Military Services.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Will you kindly permit me to occupy a little
space in your columns to complete what has
already been too briefly said with reference to
the military service OF Capt. Charles c. Cole,
who has Just been confirmed as United States
attorney for ttis District? The simple an
nouncement that he served continuously with
his regiment during the war will scarcely give
the pm bic an adequate conception of the ma
ture Of his service or of the perils that con-
fronted him during this time. Capt Cole en-
tered the military service a sergeant August
l. 1862, in the seventeenth Maine volunteers,
and by reason of brave and meritorious con-
duct was promoted successfully 70 be second
lieutenant, first lieutenant and capt ain holding
the latter rank when mustered out with his
regiment June 10, 1855. He participated in
every engagement of his regiment. twenty
seven in number. commencing with the battle
of Fredericksburg December Is. 1862. includ-
ing the great battles Of the Army of the Poto-
mac. and terminating with the close OF HOSTILE
ties at Appomattox, April 9. 1855. The dangers
through which he passed unhurt will be better
understood by stating that the regiment lost
2O7 men in killed and died of wounds and in
addition $50 wounded. NV
