ADJUSTMENTS.

Hazel Kirke" was played at the
Metropolitan Theater last night by Miss
Ellsler's company to a far larger audi
ence than any it has yet had in this en-
gagement. TO say that it was admirably
played is but expression of simple truth.
OF all the Hazels Ellie Ellser is the
chief; of all Dunstans &. w. Couldock is
the greatest. 1t is the very coinage Of
art that these two turn out in this touch
ing and beautiful idyl. Miss Weston's
Pittacus Green, was capital. 1t was as
fine and discriminating piece of refined
comedy work as any one need wish to
see. Miss Athy's Dolly, too, was very
clever, indeed one of the kind Of persona
tions that evokes warm expression
of admiration because of its naturalness.
The applause was unbounded last night,
and the much use of the handk erchief
proved how moist were the eyes of the
people with tears of sympathy-tributes
10 the art OF the players. After Mr..
/ Weston had read the pretty epilogue at
the close OF the play he stepped before
the curtain and announced that Hazel
kirke" would be repeated tonight, and
that it would be the last time Miss lIllsler
and Mr.. Couldock would ever give it in
Sacramento. The piece was handsomely
staged last night tho mounting retlecting
credit upon the good taste of some one in
authority.

PROFESSOR GAYLEY's LECTURE


The Immediate Successors of Shake
speare in English Comedy.
Professor Charles NJ. Gayley gave his
third lecture Of the series last evening OH
the immediate successors Of Shakespeare.
He first treated of Ben Jonson, read
ing from his Every Man to HIS HUI
NOR" and "Epicene." a discussion OF
Jonson's style disclosed five kinds ol
comic characteristic butt, the practical
joker, the comic medium, the drOll and
the wit. The general characterization OF
the school is that the COMEDIES do not de-
velop character, but assume Il liked
character. They are not comedies Of
character, nor OF incident, but OF humors,
showing complications arising from each
man carrying out his own idiosy
cies.
George Chapman followed Jonson.
His works are to be studied only as a
type.
The professor closed the lecture by
reading sketches from Beaumont and
f1etcher's The Knight of the Burning
Poster"
The next lecture will be on the ''School
of Manners"

HETTY GREEN'S PRoMPTNEss
n Pleased the Tax Collectors, and They
Let Her on Cheap.

HBMPsTBAD, l.. l., Feb. 24-People are
ohuckling over the readiness which. the
tax assessors placed a small assessments
on the property of Mrs. Hetty Green, who
is the richest women in America as well
as one of the mostiolose listed. She resided
here last summer. II appears that her
eagerness to secure her tax bills, her fear
lest she should be overlooked when the
assessments were levied and her prompt
ness in paying her taxes so pleased the
assessors and tax collector that it did not
occur to them to inquire too particularly
into Mrs Green's affairs. Then Mrs.
Green insisted upon her husband and her
daughter being taxed They had their
legal home where she resided. Therefore
all three were assessed 81, 500 each. The
assessors thought Mrs Green an excep-
tionally liberal woman, and when she
paid her S23550 as soon as she received her
bill the tax collector was charmed with
her promptness. Now that the tax as
SCISSORS realize how very rich Mrs. Green is
it occurs 90 them that they might just as
well have assessed her personal property
at q very much higher valuation. As Mrs.
Green's tax bills are paid for this year, the
assessors will have to wait until next year
before Mrs. Green's assessment can be
raised

He had secured the services of Colonel e.
James as his counsel, who read the law
relating to the granting of certificate of
reasonable doubt. He declared that he
had been on the case only since the YER

Colonel James claimed that it was i'm
possible that during the three weeks trial
of the defendant no errors had orept in,
and argued at length for a stay.
Justice Cullen took the papers on the
application for reasonable doubt as well as
a copy of the testimony taken at the Nc
Kane trial. He said that he would render
