SHALL WE BUILD THE CANAL.

The petition Of the San Francisco
chamo Der OF commerce urging upon Con.
gress the completion OF the Nicaraugua
canal under Government control brinos
this important scheme again into con.
sideration. The view which all Ameri.
cans should hold upon this subject has
been given considerable prominence in
the February Forum by Courtenay De
Kalb from whom we quote as follows:
1.-The American people must answer
momentous question before the turn
ing OF another year. They must de-
eide whether American influence, by
peaceful means, shall dominate the
Isthmus of Nicaragua. The responsi-
bility cannotssbe sbirked Forty years
OF indecision, with itful, but unavail-
ing outbursts of enthusiasm for the
building OF Nioaraguan ship canal,
has at last provoked conditions which
are critical. The world has waited for
us, recognizing our superior interests in
the undertaking. We.have been put to
the test, and the result so far has bee
failure! Four times have concessions
been placed in our hands and forfeited
by inaction, and now ifth concession
awaits action.

AT THE PLAY.
Small House. But a Satisfactory
Performance

The Golden Giant" last night
had a small house. OF the play it
may be said that people who like
that sort of thing will be pleased
with it. The story is highly i'm
probable. Some rewriting might
make it powerful piece. Interest
is sustained throughout and there
are several really strong situations.
The climax of the second act Ia OF
great merit, and the same may be
said of the closing of the third act.
The sentiment is healthy. Mr..
DALEY mounted the play well.
There has not been enough time for
study or rehearsal. Nevertheless
the production was smooth and
there were no waits.
Mr.. Scott was an exceeding y ca
pable Alex. Fairfax, and Mortimer
Snow was excellent Throughout as
Jack Mason. Snow looks very
slender in a dress suit. Al. IL.
Hallett was good enough villain to
elicit audible reprimand from the
gallery. This praise was we'll
earned. Louis Belmour sustained
the character of Bixby with fideli-
ty. P. A. Nannary's acting was up
to the standard, but he did not
seem to be in good voice.
Miss Dalgleish gave further evil
dence of her great talent and YER
satility by her Interpretation OF the
soubrette part. Her description of
the capture of a trout was splen-
did effort, and her acting through
out was pleasing to all. Miss Nan
merry had a character calling for all
her reserve force and fine art. She
summoned this and the result was
a highly praiseworthy evenings
work. Her costume in the third
act was much admired. Miss
Nannery is not strong woman
physically, but was equal to every
requirement of a character calling
for a strong leading lady. Both she
and Miss Dalgleish received flowers
over the footlights. Miss Belmour
was excellent as the landlady OF
the Gold Run hotel. The child OF
the play was very well done.
On Saturday evening the popular
Black Flag" will be again pre-
sented, and there will doubtless be
a crowded house.

PREPARE TO DIE VERY SOON.
Harden on the Coast and Junius
Kaae Here.
The Exile sends n Letter-It IL Called
Good News-A Messenger who
Was Mouthy.

When the Monowai was in port
on the 25th, sailorman from the
crack passenger boat entered the
Penhallow house grounds on Bere-
tania street. He seemed to be feel
ing his way and stood near the gate
for some time. He was a big,
heavy fellow in jersey and with
the name of his ship across his cap.
Finally he pulled himself together
and with a decided air walked to
the nearest door. He knocked and
was invited into the room of G. l..
Dodge, foreman of the Star, who
had as a visitor Allen w. Clarke.
In one hand the tar had a folded
sheet of paper and huge official
envelope that was bullying with its
contents. He said he desired some
information. Placing the heavy
letter face down on table, he I'M
folded the paper. Spreading it out
he discovered to Messrs. Clarke and
Dodge a very good map of Berelan-
la street from Fort to Punchbowi.
All the prominent places on either
side of the road were plainly marked.
Especial care had been taken to
indicate the residences of Mrs.
Dominis and Junius Kaae with
reference to the Central Union
church.
On the map, in the approved
English penmanship of the versa
tile liar himself, appeared the
name of Francis Leo G. Harden.
The sailorman said the letter
was for Junius Kaae and was from
the man whose name was written
on the map. He gave an excellent
description of Harden to Messrs.
Dodge and Clarke directed the
messenger to the residence of Kaae
as located on the map.
Next day there passed around the
town word that cheering news had
been received by the royalists.
Restoration was once more in sight.
EvenKaLeo had some unusually in
sane paragraphs. The talk let loose
by Kaae was to the effect that there
was being organized ON the Coast
a force which would sweep the rev.
olutionists into the sea. 1.-THE next
steamer" would bring still more
substantial evidences of the bright
future. A few days later more of
Harden's letter was fioated from
other monarchical strougholds.
Harden is the man of the hour.
He is their savior. Annexationists
hunt your holes. Seek the cyclone
cellar. Fly to Tantalus. Engage
canoes or bathing suits. Harden
who, with his mouth, fought in
every naval and land engagement
in South America for five years,
will soon be in the saddle. He
will settle with those who exiled
him.
Junius Kaae, who received the
letter from Harden, is not unknown
to local fame. Junius handled the
$4,000 opium bride and a lot of it,
so common report said, stuck to his
fingers. He was also at one time
accused of stuffing the pay rolls OF
the land registrars Office.

BEYOND PATTI.
An American Girl the Worlds
Greatest Soprano.

The sensation in the musical
world just now is the voice of Miss
Ellen Beach Yaw, the California
prima donna. She is the successor
of Patti and will honor the mantle
that falls to her shoulders. Miss
Yaw is a soprano. The range of
her voice is the marvel of all. She
easily reaches B, going two full
notes above Patti and leaving in
the distance Nelson's famous F.
Miss Yaw's voice is remarkably
pure, sweet, clear and even.
