sIsn .ne Lines 20 a. to bring the elevator
within 4. plaintiff says that the most
Westerly Of the three mouths Of the Dr,-
vanish river Was taken, instead OF the
main channel, which Il the one treated a.

4 - claimed that the lines to the mouth

The elevator company il represented BY
Metcaife and Turner and the commission
ere oy Ex-Governor Semple and Corpora
tion Counsel Jacobs. In opening the case
M. Turner spoke Of the large amount Of
money expended by the elevator company
IN Its building and machinery, and said
that It was hoped the location selected
would make the property safe from confis-
cation BY the state through the harbor
line commissioners.
The hearing Of the case was continued
until Saturday evening, when Judge
Lichtenberg will hold special night ses-
sion for the trial Of this case.

Some peculiar proceedings were taken in
! one Of the side issues Of the Reicheneker

somebody's being fined heavily for con-
tempt Of court. About two weeks ago, in
order TO give Ill Of the creditors Of Reich

Miss Annie Baume Andrew accompanist,

WARDE AS WOLSEY.
A Night Of Shakespeare at the
Opera-House.
MRS. BOWERS QuEENkArHERlNE
Henry SIIr' seen and Appreciated By
>11arse and Enthusiassie Audi
encs Last Eyening.

The warde-Bowers company in "Henry
VIII" drew . large audiences at the opera
house last evening, in spite Of the heavy
rain. The play. even in the best hands,
mas few claims to popular favor, as it is
somber throughout, with little action. but
It was well received and the company
favored with every token Of appreciation.
Mrs. Bowers, as the hapless Queen
Katherine, found early opportunity to
assert her claims to favor. and they were
honored without hesitation. Her first
scene, the impeachment of Buckingham,
proved the charms of her voice and man.
ncr, shown in her pleadings for the people
and the disgraced lord, and in the third
act. when she is brought before the king
and cardinals for trial, she carried the
house by storm, her royal dignity and
scorn struggling with her sense of womanly
weakness making a picture which thrilled
the coolest spectator.
Mr.. Warde did not touch the feelings Of
his audience till the fourth act, when the
naughty, interruptions. plotting cardinal
is suddenly hurled from his high
position. His last words to Cromwell at
the end of the act we're given with a fine
burst OF feeling. and won for him an en-
thusiastic double recall He looks Wolsey,
a. he conceives the character, cold, hard,
proud and ambitious, but the play makes
him the central figure in but one scene,
and is no fair test Of his powers as an actor.
Mr.. Turner, as the king, deserves better
than some of his critics have given him, or
his work has improved recently. HIS
Henry is good conception and never un-
satisfying in voice or action His dissolu-
ton OF the court and final humbling Of the
cardinal were well done, and not a shade
too forceful. Mr. c. D. Herman was fine
Buckingham, impressive in speech and
action. His voice is one of the few in the
company that are clear, deep and strong.
Miss Catherine Coggswcll had little to
do as Lady Anne Boleyn, but that little
gained the favor Of the audience. Mr..
Leighton as Cromwell. Mr.. Lee as
the surveyor, and Mr.. Benedict as
the lord chamberlain, demonstrated that
they were capable actors, and any roles
which they assume will have intelligent,
conscientious treatment.
The costumes shown in the play were
rich and appropriate, and the setting as
good as the limited accessories of the
opera-house stage would admit
Tonight "virginius" will be given, with
Mr.. Warde in the title role, Miss Coggs-
we'll as Virginia, Mr.. Herman as Appius
Claudius and Mr.. Leighton as Icilius.

REACHING OUT FOR TOOLS.
Of Escape Found In I'll
County Jail Yard.

implements OF Escape Found In the
County Jail Yard.
When Jailer Pat Farraher made his
usual rounds Of the county jail and
immediate premises yesterday morning,
he found in the Jail yard a carpenters
brace and two three-eights inch bits. A
string was tied to the bits and brace and
how the tools came there was accounted
for at the first glance. Some one of the
prisoners in the corridor threw string
over the jail yard fence into the alley
adjoining Then a confederate tied the
tools on the end and threw them over the
fence, string and all. The prisoners then
drew up on the string but the line caught
a snag and broke and the tools fell in the
Jail yard where they were found.
The jailer says he is quite certain that
Frank Mason, 16-year-old boy, who
served six months in the county Jail for
larceny and who was only released few
days ago, is the confederate who obtained
the tools and tied them on the string.

"Kaianka" Next weeH.

Miller Bros magnificent spectacular
pantomime "Kajanka," which is billed
for Seattle opera-house for next Tuesday
and Wednesday nights, is undoubtedly
the biggest thing now on the road. ''Ka-
janka," the new Partisan spectacle, is in
succession of beautiful transformations,
one scene following the other in rapid sue
cession, until at the close the rise Of the
morning sun eciipses them all. Electra,
the fairy queen, is seen in the distance
travelling in q chariot drawn by four white
horses, while the ladies Of the company
are used as cherubs in the clouds. This is
without doubt the handsomest scene Of
the kind ever displayed on any stage.

Divide Muslin Il Coming.

No announcement can be made that will
furnish greater pleasure to Seattle musi-
clans and lovers of art than that Oxide
Musin, the great violin virtuoso and his
concert company Of solo artists are to be
at the Seattle opers-house next week.
Musin created furore when here two
years ago and his second visit will be
very important event. Mr.. Robert 4.
Johnston. manager for Musin, was in the
city yesterday and arranged with Man
eyer Hanna to have the concerts at Seattle
opera-house on Friday and Saturday
nights Of next week. The Washington
Post says:
d. Musin Is . violinist Of international repu-
tation, and he more than sustained what has
frequently been said OF him heretofore by his
renditions last evening He proved that his sue
cessful career a. an artist was due not only to
ability but to . warm heart, which made him
enter into his work with fervor seldom
equalled. N. Musin has played in public since
his eleventh year, and has travelled from Tobolsk,
In Siberia, to San Francisco. The routine of his
production was something remarkable, and
every individual piece drew forth rounds of ap-
plause, and he was forced to give an encore
repeatedly.
