the law impartially, inaugurated a new
era Of advancement and prosperity for
Sacramento and has provided work for
the workingmen, and at all times has
shown himself to be in favor Of lair

ing to be held this evening on Fourth

A BIG-HEARTED MINER.
He Fed Nineteen Hungry Men in
One Night.
How Trinity County Mining Philan-
thropist Practically Applies the
Golden Rule.

OF all the disinterested and genuine ex-
hibitions of true and worthy charity and
assistance to the deserving needy that
have come to light in this city-so filled
with hungry men of late days-the acts
of a mountain miner. few nights since,
take the golden prize, and by all odds
break any former record in Obeying the
injunction and carrying out the Christian
beatitude of feeding the hungry"
About Z o'clock that evening an ordi-
narily-dressed man walked into res
taurant on K street, between Third and
Fourth, having in tow very seedy and
needy-looking individual. The former
gave the clerk orders to give the latter
something to eat, and laid down quarter
for the reckoning. He then quietly left
the place. In a few moments ae re-
turned with another, and made the same
request as to furnishing something to
eat" and making payment. again retlr-
ing.
The fact of one man performing two
such acts Of generosity in one night at
tracted the attention of the guests pres
sent, and they praised them accordingly.
But they became interested as the strange,
honest miner" soon put IN an appear
ance with third supperleSs unfortunate
and paid, as before, two bits for the fare.
Here the interested spectators saw they
had in their midst character" of re-
nown. and they determined TO see the
outcome of the good beginning; so they
tarried after settling their own scores, Tor
they felt the unknown phlianthroplst
would again return; and they were not
amiss in the surmise.
70 avoid the detail of the nights doings
of that man, let it suffice to say that by
10 o'clock he had taken from the streets
and fed nineteen men with supper, for
each Of whom he paid quarter, or 81 10
altogether.
Nor were they drunken, worthless, un-
deserving ''bums'' or hobOs, but men
simply out of work and needy, and their
in requiring that if the proprietor knew
any of them to be drunken or dissolute
characters not to feed them with his
money.
Ofthe nineteen persons fed, one was a
boy about Y years OF age. One of the
men obtained permission to secure his
breakfast instead. saying he could get
along till morning. One peculiar fact
was noticed in every one Of that multi
tude fed, and it was that not one of them
thanked or III any way recognized the
kindness of the stranger who gave them,
perhaps, the first square meal they had
had for days.
The liberal man would not give his
name, only volunteering the fact that he
was returning from San Francisco to his
home in Trinity County.

eagerly looked for to commence work on

wood work of the machine has been con-

is being built in Ohio. 1t was expected
that the machine would be at work before
this, but the contract is a big one and
difficult of execution, and it is no wonder
that very slow progress is being made.
The dredger will use a clam-shell dipper.

ADJUSTMENTS

AT the Metropolitan Theater tonight
Katie Emmett. the charming soubrette,

OF the Ivy Leaf" We are told that there
IS an abundance of strong sensational
scenes, sparkling comedy, and inter-
woven with the main plot is pretty love
story which makes the whole deeply in
teresting. The scenic effects of the play
are fine, everything used in the produc-
ton being carried by the company. The
troupe is represented as one of unusual
strength, among the names being those
OF W. A. Mack, the balladiSt Stella Barr,
and others equally well-known. Katie
Emmett is one of the most popular OF
soubrette stars. She is magnetic; there is
sp0ntaneity in all that she does; her
laugh is infectious. she draws her audi
ence so her as does the magnet, and with

one Eastern journal not given to warm
praise. the New York Recorder, says Of
Killarney: 1.-The play possesses far
more originality than the average of new
dramas. The action is brisk, the dialogue
almost always interesting, and the ad
vantages for scenic display fully utilized.
Miss Emmett does not attempt 10 mOnop-
olize the stage, and several other char
acters share the honors with her. The
company supporting her was distinctly
excellent, and consisted of a class of
players not usually found in Irish
dramas" The troupe goes north tonight,
but not until late hour and the play,
says Manager Todd, will be given in all
its fullness, and without any haste or cut
ling.
In the play of Killarney tonight
Miss Emmett makes a leap across a cata-

attempted by a woman, and is a most

LET Us MAKE 1T A GO.

The Chamber Of Commerce last night
got down to practical business aud
made arrangements for a celebration
that will be Of real value to the city.
THE Last Days of Pompeil," as it will
be presented on the old Fair Grounds
beginning on the Glorious Fourth will
be worth coming long distance TO see.
It's merits have been proven in several
cities thai have offered this great spec
tacular show Inducements and sufficient
space and facilities to exhibit.
There is no doubt the railroads will
cooperate and offer reduced rates
to those living at distance who will
want TO see it, as most everybody will.
The Chamber OF Commerce has exer-
cised wisdom in abandoning the
former impracticable Fourth Of July
project and. if carried to a successful
issue. the present arrangement will not
only give US q Columbian Fourth wor-
thy Of Wheeling. but one that will be
OF great practical benefit to the city.
The amount that already has been
subscSbed shows that our business men
will not be slow in giving the project
the necessary practical aid.

MR.. HENNIG AS "ANrONY."
"HamIet" to BE Given Saturday Ever
fnU

"HamIet" to BE Given Saturday Even
ing.
In spite OF the miserable weather and
general sloppiness under foot, induced
by the heavy rain In the afternoon, the
Opera House was crowded last night by
an audience, whose size, as well as its
quality, testified to the high esteem In
which Mr. Frank Hennig is held In his
own town as an actor. In "Marc Antony"
Mr.. Hennig is probably at
big best. His delineation OF the
silver-tongued and crafty "Antony"
has probably never been excelled on
the boards Of the Opera House. 1t Is a
character Of which the talented young
actor has evidently made a special
study, and the most captious Shake
sperean critic could not find point In
which Mr.. Hennig is lacking. True,
the play gives this character but two
specially prominent scenes, but after
both of these the audience insisted on
having Mr.. Hennig before the
curtain. Antonys Grafton over
Caesars body is the most difficult
passage In the play, requiring, as II
must,to be effective, the finest apprecia-
ton OF the character, and in this scene
Mr.. Hennig is at his best. Smooth and
insinuatIng, eloquent and grand, the
talented young tragedian fully deserved
the ovation he received at the drop Of
the curtain. Mr.. Hennig has the
faculty, which is rare, espec-
tally among young actors. Of avoiding
over-actinR. he is never STACEY, and
always easy and graceful.
BY request OF his many admirers Mr..
Hennig has consented TO appear at the
Opera House on Saturday evening next.
Dune 3, 10 Shakespesre's sublime TRACE
DIV, Hamlet" which also is one OF his
strongest characters. The "Ophelia"
will be Miss Emma Vaders who was not
seen In the cast Of Julius Cesar. Miss
Vaders was for years the "Ophelia"
with Edwin Booth and that great actor
has often declared her the greatest he
had ever seen. With the strong com
pany that Mr. Hennig has supporting
him, we can promise our readers one
OF the best representations Of that IA
nous tragedy ever given in the city.
