At CordrAy's TheateP.

To successfully vary the attractions at a
theater where a performance is given every
night in the year is a task whose difficulty
is only thoroughly known to theatrical
managers. That class of theater-goers
who never weigh anything except the coin
paid at the box Office are often unrea-
sonably captious. The intelligent theater-
goer considers the general tone and merit
of the pieces presented within given
time. and does not Judge from any one
isolated production. Most of the amuse-
ment seekers in the city have learned to
look upon Cordray's theater as a reliable
family resort, where the quality of the
pieces staged is always of high stand
ard. The management seeks to please
patrons of the house by judicious selec-
ton of plays, and always aims at meeting
the wishes of the majority. "Muldoon's
Picnic" is a departure from the regular
style of pieces staged in the theater, and
as such it affords novelty and satisfaction.
1t is mirth producer, and affords legiti.
mate recreation to all. The auditorium
bill is an amusing collection of acts by
clever artists.

1HE SEATTLE PosT-INTELL1GENcER, FRIDAY. MAY 90 se,

mander of the ''Bonhomme Richard" but
Is only an opera comique Paul Jones, with
touch OF the Frenchman. In the first
act he is in love with Yvonne. daughter of
Breton ship chandler, Bcoquet, with
rival, Rufino. nephew of Don Trocadero,
Spanish governor of a spot in Central
America. Bicoquet favors Rufino and
Paul Jones volunteers on board of an
American privateer. In act two, three
years later. We find Bicoquet married to
Rutno's sister, Malaguena. Yvonne is
being forced to marry Rufino, when, in
obedience to laws of operetta, Paul turns
up and challenges Rufino, who by
stratagem makes Paul prisoner and car
ries him off in irons to the Spanish main.
As Paul Jones' squadron is hammerlng
the coast Trocadero is charmed to find
Paul in his nephew's hands. OF course
Paul escapes, is mistaken for BicoQuet,
and aided by Maiaguena and the other
ladies succeeds in gaining his ships. The
Americans attack the Spaniards, and all
ends in the most approved fashion. There
is an underplot involving Paul's boatswain
Bouillabaise, and his wife Chopinette, who
is sad tiirt. The king of the Mosquitoes
and other characters supply low comedy
element. Tuesday will mark the closing
night of Miss Huntington's engagement,

owner with him of property held by him
and another woman, whom he married

A HUSBANDS WRONGS.
He Claims That His wife's Cruel Jeal.
ouky Makes Life Rurdensome.


Charles A. White began an action for
divorce yesterday against Elm NJ. G.
White on the ground of cruelty. His
complaint sets ont that they were married
in Fresno county, Cal, in May. 1883, and
that few months later she began to ex-
hht her jealous temperament and to
make life burdensome for him. On one
occasion he went 20 Tacoma and on his re-
turn she grew so abusive that he decided
te leave the house. He was about to do
% when she seized hold of him and made
sach disturbance that he returned to the
house to prevent the neighbors from being
aroused.
In May, 1891, when there were guests at
the house. White charges that his wife at
the table accused him of intimacy with
another woman, member of the family,
and threw her wedding ring IN his face. A
few weeks ago he went to San Francisco
on business, and on his return she in
formed him that detectives hired by her
bad tracked him to houses used for i'm
moral purposes. She also accused him of
bringing on the steamer to Seattle q
woman who passed az his wife.
White cain. that such scenes with his
wife have become of frequent occurrence.
and often before friends and acquaint-
snces. and have at length become unbear-
able. He asks the court for a decree of
divorce and TO declare him the sole and ex-
elusive owner of property valued at $50 900,
which he holds in Seattle, Tacoma and
Thurston county.

SORROW FOR DROWNED CHINESE.
Loss or the Lottie Excites the Colony
Brokers Nav be Sued.

The Chinese of Seattle and Victoria are
terribly worked up over the loss of the
Cinnamon who were drowned in the British
Columbia sloop Lottie. which was sunk
while coming over from Victoria some
time ago. One of the most intelligent
Cinnamon in the city yesterday made the
following statement about the affair:
There are Cinnamon in Victoria who act "a
brokers in making arrangements with owners
oil vessels for bringing in Chinese. These
brokers' have grown rich at the business In
this Case they pretended that the Chinese were
10 De brought across IN a steam launch aud
landed AT Portland but instead of that they put
them on the slOop and all were lost
There were twcnty-eight Cinnamon in all.
There is great excitement among the Chinese,
both here and in Victoria and il is probable an
effort will be made to get damages from the
brokers.
A sailor named John Rafferty,, who used
to room at the California lodging house on
Main street, corner of Sixth, is known to
have been on board the sloop when she
went down. He was we'll known here,
having lived in Seattle the past three
years.

Preparing for Consolidation.
Winthrop Coffin. of Boston, who is con-
nected with the financial department of
the General Electric Company-the con-
solidatlon of the Thomson-Houston and
the Edison companies--is at the Rainier
hotel. He said last night that he was here
on trip to look over the company's various
interests on the Pacific coast. Yesterday
he spent in travelling over the various
electric lines in Seattle. In regard to the
plan for consolidating them he said:
"As yet the consolidation is merely
planned. Whether We shall be able to re-
concile all the interests here and elsewhere
is not yet certain. We are seeing what We
can do"
Touching the consolidation of the two
great electrical companies Mr.. Coffin
added: 1.-THE two organizations were each
spending money in competition. and the
stockholders of both thought that union
would bring about economy in manage
ment of nearly every department of the
business. The details of tie consolidation
in the Northwest have not yet been
arranged, and do not know what they
will be-"

one night about three weeks ago. He had
been stopping there about two months
when a messenger boy called for him and

out, and that is the last that has been seen
of him.
His valise, trunk and clothes still re-
main at the house, and Mrs. Cohn feels
sure that something has happened to him.
He seemed to have plenty Of money and
was very steady in his habits. and there is
