HEART THROBS OF ISRAEL.
Lecture by Miss Ray Frank in B'nai
Birth Hall.

Miss Ray Frank was greeted by select
and cultured audience in B'nai Birth hall
last night on the occasion of her lecture on
Heart Throbs OF Israel" Every seat was
occupied and several of the sterner sex
were compelled to stand for want of seat
Ing accommodation.
Max Pepper. the chairman of the State
Democratic Committee, presided and ia
neat speech introduced the lecturer as a
native daughter of the Golden West.
MISS Frank was becomingly dressed in a
canary colored costume. She is youn6
Iady OF progressing appearance and fasci-
mating manners. Her delivery is clear and
iuil, gestures appropriate and graceful and
u was apparent that she quickly enlisted
the sympathies of her audience.
As preface to the lecture she remarked
tnat she had been asked by the press and
private individuals what her ultimate OBJ
Ject was and what her mission was. She
would give the same answer to all IN
quirers, that as to her ultimate object she
knew nothing about it, and as to her mis-
sion it was of the present She was
seeker after truth as gathered from the rec
ords OF the past and as it is now. She then
plunged into her subject and handled IL in
mastery manner, eliciting frequent ex-
pressions of approval.
Al the close of the lecture a large number
went forward and complimented her upon
her fine effort.

OAKLAND THEATER
Opening of the Marlborough
Last Night.
LADIES REnOVE BONNETS.
A Large Audience Witnesses the
First Observation-Disclosures of
the New Place of Amusement.

All fsshiopable Oakland turned out last
night to do honor to the opening of the Mac
donough Theater. The beautiful little
building was crowded long before Professor
Josephs' b atom was raised and the first
strains from the orchestra floated forth
upon the air. 1t was one Of the most bril-
liant occasions Oakland has known in years.
and the enthusiasm Of all present bore testi.
mony to their hearty rejoicing that Oakland
has at last a theater worthy of the name
and of the city.
A great many. In fact the majority OF the
elegantly dressed ladies who graced the oc-
cason. were unbonneted-a pretty custom
which they would do we'll TO continue, since
they have so successfully inaugurated it.
"Ips the best thing about the whole OPEN

where standing room only" had become
the order of the evening. and II was indeed

$4,000 if the bills Of ali the papers are al

With these accounts in, and there are
more to follow, the cost of the election is
now over $4,000. or little over S. for
every vote cast.
1t is true that this time there have been
250 booths purchased, which it is supposed
may be used at the next election.
AS matter Of fact the booths were not
the best In the world. and had IL not hap
pened fortunately that there was fac
weather ballots, ballot-boxes and returns
would have been completely spoiled, for the
roof would let in the sunshine and the rain.
One great necessity of the Australian
ballot system to insure its success must be
the organization Of complete system OF
polling places.
Taxing the figures Of $4,000 and adding
the cost of the official count and all extras
1t will be seen that the guess OF the re-
porter will be rather too small than too
great. and that results in the statement that
each vote cast in the city aud county of
San Francisco costs little over So and
probably nearer So so than any lesser sum.
This sum of $4,000 is larger than the
whole amount of the salaries to be received
by the officials to be elected and serious
burden on the city, but of course much of
the material purchased this year can be
utilized in 1894 and that expense will be
saved
