Edward SoIomon's comic opera in two
acts bearing the above title will be played
on the Tivon boards tomorrow evening
for the first time, and form the pro
gramme for the week. From a glance
at the argument we judge the
business 10 be duplicated. but not lacking
in spirit. The Gentleman in Black" under
the name Of Nicholas de Vile, plays a very
conspieqpUs part among the dramatis
persona. and so does Nubbles, railroad
contractor and an employer OF "BaYvies."
These two make il very warm for each
other, till in the end Nubbles gets the best
OF tie deyil-s result. il may be added, par
parenthese, very seldom accomplished ex-
cept on the stage. and then only by a con-
tractor Your contractor wins always.
Here as In Little Tippett," there is
confusion of children; there is also plenty
or love-making. Jealousy. etc.-enough to
keep things moving at lively rate til the

Miss, Jeffreys Lewis Bonne Bouehe

Everybody. who has heard Of Miss JEFF
'freys Lewis has heard mentioned in con-
jairctiOn with her name the character OF the
Countess Zcka III Diplomacy" With this
impers0nation she introduced herself to the
San Francisco public many years ago, and
made such a good impression that she has
retained the dramatic favor Of all our
theater-gOeTs ever since. Some question
arose in regard to her proiciencyCand nice
finish In oheT assumptions, but all cOntro-
YerSy ceased when the name OF Baron STEMS
diplomatic female agent was mentioned.
] es, she could play the Countess TO the life
beyond peTadyenture, aud. tomorrow even
ing we are to see her iu the same character
al the StOckwell. We really believe there
is curiosity enough left in the community TO
. insure "a full house on the occasion. Some
VIII be present 10 make comparison be-
tween now and then, some TO find how far
the encomlums laVished on the actress in
: this particular part are borne out by the
fact OF her acting Interest also will
effort with Baron Stein. Mr.. Kahn is a
comparatively young and al the same time
Intelligent actor, but he will be under the
disadvantage Of such predecessors in the
difficult part as Shannon and Osbourne,
who always divided the honorS Of the even
ing with the star. 1t may be that Mr. Kahn
has never had chance to get a hint from
these actors in regard to the Baron. He
viii therefore have TO create Stein, so TO
speak, for himself If he succeeds in doing
this. as judging By his previous work we
think he viii, the greater will be his honor
and deserving. These are the chief points
that We can mark calculated to make ''Di-
plomacY" tomorrow evening an object os
interest, unless il be the appearance Of
Miss Ethel Brandon as Dora-a part by no
means unimportant. Careful study and
precise acting are required to make DJra an
effective peTsOnation.

TOOK ROUGH ON RATS. "

Suicide OF John Davidson. a DaIrymen'
From SonomS County
Trough on rats" is a poison that seldom
falls to result fatally when taken with sui
cidal intent. 1t was so with John David
son, a middle-aged man, who was conveyed
10 the Receiving Hospital few minutes
after IL o'clock yesterday morning.
Davidson arrived last week from Bloom
field, SOnoma County, and went 10 the
Franklin Hotel. Frequently he acted In a
peculiar manner, and told some Of the guests
that be was ashamed to be seen among re-
spectacle people. Nothing WAS thought Of
his actions until 9 o'clock yesterday morn-
ing. when he was found in a semi-uncOn-
scious condition In his room. An empty
bottle labeled Rough on rats" was found
by his bedside. 1t took the attaches OF the
hotel nearly two hours to comprehend that
the man was suffering from stryennlne
poisoning. Then friend, named Robert
Ryan, had him removed 20 the hospital
The stomach-pumD was put IN operation,
but too late TO save the sufferers lie, Tor
the pois0n had become thoroughly Infused
In his system.
Alter the treatment. however, Davidson
rallied a little and was able 10 talk teebly.
He muttered that he was very desp0ndent
because he had sold a dairy at Bloomfield
for $500 and had been cheated. Before lie
could say anything more on this subject he
lapsed into Inconsistencies. lie sank
rapidly until o'clock in the afternoon,
when he revived sufficiently TO say that 1t
was his dying request that his friend James
Parker of Petaluma see that his body was
buried in the southeast corner of Bloomfield
cemetery. Twenty minutes later he
breathed his last, and his remains were sent
to the Morgue. The deceased was neatly
dressed and appeared to be about 50 years
OF age. An inauesr will be held TODAY.

found at Stanford University and at Indiana
University that the presidents were DESTROYS
of placing women on the faculty, but when
it came to the practical question Of "wbo?"
they were met by the difficulty that any
woman who might offer had to come into
competition with young men who had
several years Of graduate study at institu-
tions not open TO women.
Miss Marietta Kies of Mills College spoke
OF the graduate opportunities at Michigan
University, and Miss May Treat of her ex-
perience at Zurich. DR.. Emma Sutro-
Merritt and DR.. Agnes Lowry gave an &C
count of professional and graduate studies
at the University of Paris. AT both Zurich
and Paris equal opportunities in all respects
are given TO men and women.
This year there will be 60 graduates from
the State University of California. OF
these Is are young women, nine of whom
rank among the first 20 of their class, and
three among the first five.
A bureau of collegiate information has
been established for the purpose of answer
ing inquiries regarding the leading colleges
for women. Miss E. K. Tompkins of
Souther Farm. San Leandro, is chairman of
this bureau.

COLLEGIATE ALUMNE.
Proceedings OF the Quarterly Meeting o
the Pacific Association.

the Pacific Association.
The quarterly meeting CT the Pacific
Association OF Collegiate Alumn@ was held
at the headquarters, $50 Suffer street. last
Saturday afternoon.
Reports of the committee work during
the quarter occupied the first half of the
meeting.
The committee on endowment of colleges
reported progress III its work and pointe
out that the small amounts sometimes
devoted by ambitious persons to the found
ing OF what they call universities" or ''col-
leges" would make good and ereditable en-
d0wlnents fer academies or for professor
ships, lectureships. fellowships, special
buildings. etc, in some great university,
which would carry the donors name honor
ably to posterity in the current of its own
fame.
The committee on educational progress
reported as the TWO important items of the
quarter in this State the increase of Mrs
HearsPs scholarships for girls in the State
University from five to eight and the ap-
p0intment of Mrs. Mary Sheldon Barnes, a
member OF the association, rs assistant pro-
lessor Of history in the Stanford University.
No woman has ever been admitted to the
staff OF the State University. and the more
liberal attitude OF the Stanford University
is therefore looked on as not only valuable
in itself, but as good example.
The committee on child study reported
the successful organization of a large aud
interested section.
The principal topic of the meeting was
that of graduate study, and especially of the
work of the fellowship committee. which
has charge OF the support of one young
woman every year in graduate study in
Europe and another in this country. Miss
Lee gave the results of correspondence
with the presidents of a number Of colleges
as to the reason no women were on their
faculties. The usual reason given was that
they had not the graduate training in such
Institutions as Johns Hopkins, Clark orthe
German universities. The opportunities
for graduate work at home and abroad were
set forth, especial attention being given to
the recent action of Yale in opening its
doors.
Letters were read from Miss Alice Carter,
Ph.D., OF Syracuse, now at Cornell. and
Miss Ruth Gentry OF Michigan, now at
Berlin, where the professor of mathematics
speaks Of her as "a great find"
