THE BUDD MARCH.
SCheeI Wins Applause as
a Composer.
How the Governor-Elect Described
Scheers Music as "Heav-
enly."

The combined attractions of being able
to gaze upon the face of James Il. Budd,
the Governor-elect OF California, and of
hearing Fritz ScheePs latest composition,
The Budd March," caused people to flock
IN great numbers to the Auditorium last
night. The Governor-elect sat in a box
profusely adorned with American flags,
interpreted with yellow bunting, and
opposite him sat Adolph Sutro, in box
trimmed to match. With Mr.. Sutro was
Colonel Little and with GoVernor-elect
James Fl. Budd we're: Mrs. II. F. Emeric,
Miss Lorena Barber, Miss Gertrude
Thompson, Miss Mabel Love, Harry Budd,
Bradford Thompson, Hon.W c. Murdoch,
Hon. II. +. Emeric.
The new march was given as an extra
after the fifth number on the programme
and sympathy was shown for the popular
conductors work even before the public
had heard it, for as Scheel stepped onto
the stand to direct the extra he was greeted
with thunders of applause. The march
proved to be a bright, popular style of
work with good swing to it, the orcnes-
tratiou was telling, and there were some
particularly fine effects for the strings. At
the conclusion OF the march, In response TO
great clamor and cries of "Bravo, R"
Scheel repeated a portion of 1t.
The demonstration that greeted the en-
core was all directed toward the Cover
nOr-elects box. Evidently the public felt
that the Circumstances demanded that
Governor James II. Budd should go on
record as publicly expressing an opinion
on the march, indeed several voices were
heard to cry "Give us a speech, Jim.'
Thus adjured Jim" rose to his feet, and
indicating the orchestra, which had Just
given him military salute, by a gesture,
he nodded in friendly manner as much
TO say. They're all right" But the audi
enee still demanding a speech the Gov
ernog-elect was forced to comply, which
he did in the following words: Il do not
want to talk while such harmony as his
is being performed. | have made speeches
before ia my life. but do not think it is
the time to make one now. How can the
human voice contend with such heavenly
music as Fritz ScheePs? 1t is too pre-
sumptuous for me-" Ana with this modest
expression Of feeling James II. Budd sat
down amid general applause, and the pro-
granrme was proceeded with.
The music rendered during the evening
was among the most popular in the Scheel
repertory, being such works as the Blue
Danube. 1.-THE Zt-Muller-Berghaus" Ii un-
garian Rhapsodie." a mum Der from Rubin
STEMS bal Masque' suite, and other
effective modern music. The overture TO

being exuberant as to fortissimos, showed

THE WORD DINNER.
1t Is Supposed That 1t Had Its Or

It seems to me, indeed, that the word diner
lin one or other FORM is more used IN the south
of France than In the other parts. have often
been surprised TO find how little IL is used
among the peasants, though now, no doubt.
since communication is so easy, the word is
everywhere understood. Where I have made
inquiries, which was not IN the south, have
generally found that dinner was called either
la soupe, or else COULTER. and that the word
diner was not used.
As long as the French soldiers had boulli

TO believe that the word diner originated in
Italy, especially as there desinar (disinar) Is

poorer classes, while pranZo and pranZar are
rather used of the more delicate dinner of those
who are lii higher social station.
In Tuscany, indeed Gas Tuscan lady tells

Dummy Telephones.

"There are lots OF dummy telephones coming
into use,' said r. c. Owens, a New YORK cleo.
trcal expert, at the Ebbitt yesterday. what
are they? Well, in the first place. they
are necessity 10 busy man who
does not keep public telephone, and In
another place they present an excellent means
for getting rid of bores who don't intend to be
bores, who don't know that they are bores and
who would resent any supposed dis
courtesy in pretty emphatic way.
Since the telephone came into general
use and pay stations were established a class
has also come into being composed of people
who want to use phone perpetually and etern-
ally, but whose messages are NOT important
enough TO allow the expenditure of a dime.
These eople always want to use a phone
whenever they see one, and, as they
are becoming more numerous every
day. the dummy phone has been introduced.
It looks exactly like a telephone, but is
made of PAPER mache. When a man asks
to use your phone and you have a dummy
you just refer him TO 1t, and then he rings
away for central until he wearIes OF get
ting no reply. OF course, he thinks the in
strument is out of order. He may come In AT
some other time and ask to use 1t again. but he
never comes the third. Two whacks at a
dummy telephone will break the biggest tele
phone beat in existence OF ever trying to use it
again. Washington Star.

The Board of Election Commissioners

the few score or more erstwhile election
officers whose peculiar mode of conducting

little criticism.
As consequence twelve warrants were
issued yesterday for the arrest of as many

batch will be sworn TO before the close of
this week. Judge Wallace, who Temporal
rily acted as a Police Magistrate, signed
the orders of arrest ana will personally

STICKS TO HIS TEXT.
Ex-Minister Stevens Fully Justified
His Own Course.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-Ex- Minister
Stevens was befure the subcommittee of
the Senate Committee on Foreign Rela-
tions to-day. Senator Gray of Delaware
examined Stevens very closely upon points
where he had been charged by Commits
sioner BlOunt with abetting the revolution.
The ex-Minister stood by the statements
he previously made and gave the commit
tee no opportunity to show by his test-
mOny the United States was in any way
responsible for the revolution. Stevens
was emphatic in the declaration that the
revolution would have occurred in any
event; that it was only question OF time,
and that the Queen, by trying to overthro w
the constitution. forced il at the particular
time when it occurred.
Stevens proved a willing witness. He
defe nded his course on the islands, and
found abundant opportunity to reply to
and characterize in no complmen tary
terms the reflections made by the President
and by Commissioner Blount upon his
policy. He admitted frankly that be had
been an advocate of the annexation of the
islands, but asserted that instead of al
lowing this fact to influence him in hay-
ing American troops landed, in the ac-
knowledgment of the Provisional Govern
ment and in assuming protectorate over
the islands. be had held back as long as
possible without doing grave injustice
and permitting matters to assume Such a
shape as would have been detrimental to
the interests OF this country and its
people, not to say repugnant to his sense
of humanity.
1t is reported that Ste vens furnished the
committee copy of his dispatch to the
State Department which Cleveland with
held when submitting the CORRESPONDENCE
to Congress in December, and that it re-
lated to the intrigues of British Minister
W0dehouse for the purpose OF securing
the supremacy of British influence in the
islands

sensational reports are intended TO infiu-
ence public opinion in the United States,
and are entirely without foundation.
Since my arrival l have carefully avoided
all expression of opinion except in con-
ference with the United States Minister.
and have ordered all my command to pur-
sue similar course. l may further add
that Mr.. Willis has never given me the
slightest hint that there was ever any in
tention on the part Of the United States
Government to use force in order to restore
the Queen. My own orders to preserve
strict neutrality have been implicitly
obeyed. It has been asserted quite often
that we were prepared to land. which is
true, but our motives have been Intention
ally msconstrued, as Willis stated openly,
and the statement was published. that he
would land solely for the purpose of sup
pressing riot and to protect the lives and
property of the defenseless. Were 1t not
for the course of the newspapers in their
endeavor TO influence public opinion in the
UnKed States DO uDeasiness would be felt
and business would 60 on as usual. Very

NEW YORK. Jan. 20.-Justice Barrett of
the Supreme Court was to-day seen re-
garding the application TO be made by
Lillian Russell for an order allo wing her
to marry Perugini in this State. The JUS
tIce admitted that an informal applica ton
ha been made to him by Lawyer A. Ii.
Hummel on behalf of Miss Russell The
facts were presented to Justice Barrett in
an informal manner. without being put in
shape in the form OF papers, and Hummel
asked for an expression of opinion as 10
whether the court would grant the order.
The Justice stated that upon the facts
presented to him he expressed grave doubt
as to whether the court would grant the
order asked for; he did not think from
the facts stated by counsel that it could
be considered that Miss Russell had lived
a uniformly good and moral life'
within the meaning of the law for five
years past.
