IN THE CITY PLAYHOUSES,
"Robin Hood" Draws Another
Large House at the Column
bia Theater.
"Confusion" Raises Hearty Laugh.
Opera at the Tivoli-Nobles in
"The Phoenix."
The Baldwin.

For the third successive Monday night
the Baldwin was crowded last evening.
The fact that every seat was occupied and
that the space usually allotted to the or
cnestra was fitted up with seats, and that
these were also filled last evening, was
proof that the people are not tired of
"Trilby" and that awful Svengali. The
audience was wrought up to such pitch
of enthusiasm when the curtain went
down on the third act, just after the death
of Svengali, that it was not satisfied until
the curtain had been raised six times.
"Trilby' will be presented at a special
matinee tomorrow afternoon.
Great preparations are being made for
the presentation of "The Passing Show"
next Monday night. This is a pleasant
travesty of the dramatic and operate sue
cesses of the past two years, and it contains
nearly every feature of the amusement
world. The company that will present
this play is very large one, containing
more than 100 people.

Morosoois Grand opera-House.

The success of Milton MOBILES at Morosco's
Grand Opera-house has been marvellous.
Every night he has played to crowded
houses and last night was no exception.
The production of ''The Phoenix" which by
many has been considered his masterpiece
was received with well-merited applause
The action of the play was well carried out
by the author and those who assisted him
in the several parts.
The numerous tableaux that are given
in the three acts were exceedingly realistic
In the fire scene at the clost of the first
act several new effects were introduced, and
these served to render the stage far more
realistic than any heretofore shown
in this City. Of course no one can
equal Mobiles in the character of his own
creation, Carroll Graves, the New York
Bohemian, who subsequently becomes Jim
Bludsoe. Maud Edna Hall was all that
could be desired in her dual role of Sadie,
the flower girl, and Efie Elmore, while
Charles W. Swain was at home in the
character of Moses Solomon. Julia Blanc
gave an excellent portrayal of Alice Black
burn, the sister of Leslie Blackburn Erred
J. Butler), the heavy villain. The attend
ance last evening is forerunner of the
number of big houses that will witness
this melodrama during the week,

WheeImen of the verein Eintracht Club
Have an Eventful Outing at San
Rafael.

Rafael.
A number of the members of the Verein
Eintracht Club of this City went to San
Rafael on Sunday as the guests of the Bay
View Club of that place. T. J. Lynngreen
and Ham Franks, both members of the
Verein Eintracht Club, met with serious
mlshaps that will cause them to remember
their outing for many a day.
Mr.. Lynngreen is one of the record
breakers of his club. He was scorching
along the streets of San Rafael with his
fellow-cyclists close in his wake and made
too short a turn when he reached Third
and B streets. AS result his wheel
slipped over and Lynngreen shot through
the air with great violence, lighting on his
LETT cheek and shoulder. His face was
badly torn and his shoulder was dislocat ted
DIR. Grove was summoned. He had no
difficulty in getting the arm back in it's
socket, but several stitches were required
to repair the wounds on the face. which
will leave two bad scars.
Mr.. Franks accident occurred in most
peculiar manner. He rode too near the
heels OF vicious horse, who, not liking
the looks of the queer animal he saw ap-
preaching him, let both heels fly at it. He
struck the bicyclist under the chin, scor-
ing complete knockout. There were no
more serious injuries than bad jaw and
several bruises
The wheel was uninjured.

DIR. Mclaughlin had substantially the
same explanation to make, save that he
was a little stronger in his Statements
went more into details, and argued, while
condemnlng the parents of such children,
that experiments of the past that of the
French physician, Bibiere, for example
had proven that if 10 per cent of such
foundllngs were saved it was to be consid-
cred as medical triumph. He was very
euloglstic of the devotedness of the Sisters
OF Charity to their work.
DR.. David B. Todd corroborated Sister
Mary's explanation also. He was physi-
clan at the institution for three wears.
Both doctors positively declared that the
supply OF milk at the orLh hanage was from
It's own source. DR.. Mclaughlin said he
had analyZed it at times and ALWAYS found
it of excellent quality.
Come up and go all through the inst1-
tuition and spend day there" said DR..
Mclaughlin. "I'll show you how these
infants are cared for by the Sisters, and
you can also then see for yourself how the
| cows are kept. No milk is obtained from

deserve great praise for the work they are

ACTORS FUND BENEFIT,
To Be Held at the Baldwin on Fri
day Afternoon-An Excellent
Programme.

At the Baldwin Theater next Friday
afternoon there will be held a benefit per-
formance in aid of the Actors Fund of
America. The entertainments have always
met with success, and those in charge of
the coming affair have arranged a pro-
gramme of unusual excellence. The pro-
gramme contains among other numbers
the famous second act, studio scene, from
''Trilby." This act has been chosen as it
calls for the full strength of the company
and some of the best scenes and situations
of the play. In this act will be seen the
merry making scenes of the artists models,
their singing, dancing, etc. Svengali and
Trllby are there also, and several strong
situations between the two famous char
acters are depicted. The cast of the Sec
ond act of "Trilby" is as follows:

ney Tobin. He gave evidence in his own
behalf, and in answer to his attorney said

"What is your true name?" asked Judge
Conlan.

"And you were never arrested before?''
"No, sir.

At the Tiyoli.

The good old "Trovatore" was enthusi-
astically received at the Tivoi last night,
it's melodious airs were applauded and re-
demanded. All the tremendously heroic,
as well as the villainously cruel characters,
were welcomed as old friends.
Rafael, as the Count di Luna, villained
so tunefully that his sins were forgiven
him and he was applauded as no
right feeling, audience would have ap-
plauded such a double-dyed monster
if he had not atoned for his shortcomings
by acting that was far from villainons
and by singing that was pleasant to
the ear. Miss Valerga was properly in
tense as the prosecuted Leonara, and the
vocal scene suited her voice excellently.
Martin Pache was melodramatical1y
heroic Manrico, and sang his lines SO ener-
getically that he won several curtain calls.
Alice Carle, as Azucena, fairly reveled in
the deep subterranean notes that a large
number of people denominate as ''rich"
contralto, but that are scarcely legitimate
singing. The choruses were good.

The People's Theater.

The very strong melodrama CATER
Dark" from the pen of Dion Boucicault,
drew another large house at the People s
Theater last night. Several weak people in
the cast have been replaced by better
ones. and the performance enthused the
audience to a high pitch. The turns
between the acts instead of musical inter-
ludes appear to please the audience. To-
morrow night will be bicycle night at this
house, and special rates have been made
for cyclers. Over 800. male and female,
have announced their intention of appear
ing in the audience in bicycle costumes.
The management has made arrangements
to take charge of all wheels.

Dixey will give matinee next Sunday
at the Tivol.

The second week of the Bostonians
opened last night at the Columbia Theater
to as large and almost as enthusiastic an
audience as greeted the popular singers on
their temperance here last Tuesday.
The only important change in the cast
consisted in the substitution of Frank V.
Pollock, the other new tenor, for Harold
Blake, who made such favorable i'm
preston in the title role of "Robin Hood"
last week.
Pollock proved to have pleasant lyric
voice, not particularly powerful nor ring
ing, but it was sweet in quality and he
used it easily and without striving and
straining after dramatic effects beyond his
powers. In addition to his vocal equip
ments, the new Robin Hood acted grace
fully and brightly, though his appearance
was too frail to give an heroic impersona-
ton to the part of the bold outlaw.
The rest of the principals aroused the
wonted applause by their spirited acting
and fine singing, and the orchestra and
chorus were up to their usual high stand
ard. "I.obin Hood will run all week.

Aloazar Theater,

Confusion at Growers Alcazar last
night was adorned with scene which was
not in the original play, but which had a
touch of dramatic profanity about it that
at once reached the comic side of the au-
dience. The plot hinges on letter which
wife writes to her husband. con-
Tossing to the possession of an inter-
esting yellow pug dog which is con-
cealed in cabinet. When the
wretched man opens the piece of furniture
he discovers an infant of tender years,
which his servants have concealed there.

over this discovery last night, when to
