Duty.

General Forsyth, commanding the De-
partment of California, in special orders
No. S8, dated August z, directs the First
Infantry, .. S. A., to march to Santa Cruz.
The field, staff, band and companies OF
the regiment serving at Angel Island and
Benicia Barracks will be concentrated at
Angel Island Wednesday, August II,
whence they will proceed to the Preside
and thence march to Santa Cruz, arriving
not later than August 2l.
The regiment will go into camp at Santa
Cruz and be instructed for four weeks in
"evolutions of the regiment" and in field
exercises by methods similar to those
illustrated at Mon terey last year. On COM
pleting this duty the regiment will return
to Angel Island, arriving not later than
Septem Der %.
Captain Guy L. Edie, Assistant Surgeon,
with a detachment of the Hospital Corps
and an ambulance, will accompany the
command.
The C<A4's special dispatches from
Washington during the past week consti-
tute the chief topic of comment in army
circles. The transfers and changes affect
every battery of the Fifth Artillery. The
extent of the "shake-up' was not appre-
ciated until the CALLS dispatches gave
details.
The law requires that there shall be one
light battery in every regiment of artillery,
and one additional light battery may be
created at the pleasure of the President;
hence, every artillery regiment in the SER
vice has two light batteries.
Every three years the detail of lieuten-
ants for light battery dnty is changed.
therefore some of the changes announced
were not unexpected.
To account for other changes foreshad-
owed it may be explained that General
Schofeld while commanding the army
held it to be sufficient for only one first
lieutenant to serve with light battery,
thus requiring three second lieutenants.

Chauneey olcott and his company opened
their second week in the California last even
ing, bringing new play, "The Irish Artist, %
to notice. This is a pleasing production which
ends up in the old-fashioned orthodox way,
with three couples to be married, with the old
time invitation to ''come out and dance upon
the, green where the fddlers are ready"
and with q story of. much loving and a
wrong and reparation. The company which
so well supported Mr.. Olcott last week was IN
the cast last evening. Mr. Olcott was natur-
ally the leading attraction, with his Irish
songs. in which the brogue is soft and pleas
ing, and the melodies are sentimentally and
effectively rendered by him. The plot of the
play has already been published. The an
nouncement that it is ian Irish idyl" very
well describes it. In such production MIR.
Olcott is well fitted by nature to move. There
is some pretty little byplay with children. as
there was in "Mavourneer."
Mr.. Olcott presents the dramatic type Of man
who takes life humorously if earnestly. In
the audience were observed many who were
in the house last Monday evening TO see and
hear "Mavourneen," which is pleasing CON-
ment upon the popularity which Mr.. Olcott
has already gained here. ''The Irish Artist

FAIR CASE POSTPONED.
Judge Slack Has Not Had Time to
Settle Knotty Question.

Action in the Fair case has been delayed
for one week. Yesterday Judge Slack was
to have cleared away the last obstruction
to its progress by deciding the question of
the standing in court of Van r. Paterson
as the legal representative of Herman
Oelrichs Jr. and several other minor heirs
of James G. Fair. The matter had come
up on demurrer lnterposed by the at
torneys for Miss Virginia Fair and Mrs.
Theresa A. Oelrichs to Judge Paterson's S
opposition to the probate of the pencil
Will.
Arguments were submitted on briefs to
Judge Slack in regard to the affair ana his
Honor was to have decided it yesterday.
The briefs were delayed, however, and
not submitted until Saturday evening, so
the Judge had not enough time to con-
slider them. Monday next at 10 A. NJ. the
case will be resumed and the decision as
to the demurrer announced.

At the Orpheum, 2,

At half-pasi o'clock last evening there was
still string of hundred people waiting for
an opportunity to secure tickets for admission
into the Orpheum Music Hall. Herr Techow
and his performing cats scored another sue
cess. Biondi appeared in another one-man
Italian opera, but in this he did not have the
same opportunities that he had in the one
given the previous week.
Black Patti was encored again aud again,
and the Vaidis twin sisters were the perfec-
ton of grace in their act on the trapeZe and
the electric revolving wheel: The event OF
the evening was, perhaps, the appearance OF
T. A. Kennedy, the hypnotist and laugh
maker. With twenty people around him on the
stage he put number under his influence
and caused them to perform all sorts of ridicu-
lous things and obey his will as II they were
automata. Whatever the secret of his per-
formance may be-hypnotism, mesmerism or
a deception with confederates-it is an ex-
ceedingly clever performance, one that keeps
the audience in a constant roar of laughter
for fifty minutes; People go. to this place to
laugh and Kennedy succeeds in giving them
what they want.

ers of Song.

Henry Arthur Jones' play, 1.-THE Mas
queraders," was produced at the Baldwin
last evening by the Frohman Company,
and as this was the first representation in
this City it was an event of considerable
dramatic interest. The drama has been
discussed with some vigor in the Eastern
papers. 1t is easy to see Row this could
occur Astounding in cynicisms, artificial
of the artificial. filled with utterances
of Mephistophelean sort, inspired by a
very questionable sort of morality, Its acts
flicker on to a series of climaxes and in it
has enough of the picturesque sense Of
virtue and truth to 6tly foil all the rest. 1t
has been said that the father of all sin is a
polished gentleman. Reversing this order
of thinking, it has come into the minds of
certain dramatists that sin per Sc is, if not
tive lacquer with which to encase
more. or less obtuse people, and at
any rate that it is spicy, and the
ally if not the source of stage
vivacity. Therefore Mr.. Jones has seen fit
to endow most of his characters with satire
instead of sincerity, with skill in scandal
rather than with wholesome earnestness.
But it takes polished company to per-
| form such drama aid such the Frohman
combination is. Its bantering spirit is
well brought out. 1t is amusing in places,
but never provokes boisterous fun.
Through it runs the real, earnest char
acter of one woman and the equally
earnest character of one man. These
two are naturally in love. The
dramatist by introducing gambling
scene has bestowed the woman and
her child on the only real lover in the
play, thereby taking her away from her
husband, who parts with her on the turn
of card. This is the real climax of the
play, and it is this incident which has pro-
voked criticism. Not that there has never
been precedent, for men have gambled
away wives, but the apparent improha-
bility of such a happening in fash
| ionable circles has been debated.
The effect of the gambling scene
on the audience at the Baldwin
| last evening seemed to be an ample justi-
| fcation of the authors dramatic handi-
cap inasmuch as Judgment could be
reached at first performance. The play
was capitally cast and capitally DONE and
the stage settings and costumes realized
| fully all that had been promised for them.
! The heroine was Viola Allen as Dulcie
| Larande, and William Faversham was the
hero David Remon, the astronomer lover
Capital work was done by them, and also
| by Robert Edeson as Sir Brice Skene and by
| T. E. Dodson as Montagu Lushington.
! The support was worthy of the manner in
which the principal roles were assumed.
| Frankly speaking, the play is debatable
| from various points OF view, but it is inter-
! esting and not dull in any place.

MORE TYPHOID FEVER
Two Cases Taken From Buchanan 8
Grading Camp to the City and
County Hospital.

Two more cases of typhoid fever were
taken from the grading camp of A. E.
Buckman to the City and County Hospital
yesterdaymorning, making nine cases in all.
Buckman claims that while the men may
have been taken from his camp suffering
from the fever, the epidemic did not start
there and the camp is in a good sanitary
condition.
There is prospect of lively time be-
tween Buckman and the health authori-
ties over the matter, the contractor claim
ing that Health Officer Lovelace acted in
an arrogant, arbitrary manner in refusing
to visit the camp when written to and in
Vited to do so. The Health Officer says
that the camp must be cleansed and there
the matter rests.
The board will probably take hand In
the matter and either condemn the camp
or give Buckman a clean bill as far as he
is concerned

Meyerbeer's tragic operate masterpiece,
"The Huguenots," opened last night and was

the Tivoli's large audience. Michelena seems
still to be the favorite, the sterling timber of
his magnificent voice setting the most exacting
critics wild with admiration. He uses none of

One of the cleverest comedies seen here for
some time is "The Great Unknown" given by
the Frawleys last night at the Colum bia. The
piece is one adopted by the versatile Augustin
Daily from German play, and in its English
dress is charming. 1t has a sort of a
plot, more than some recently presented
comedies can boast; but its great feature
is the startling succession of strangely
tangled situations. all of which
right themselves eventually. In the second
act Miss Blanche Bates, as Etna, gives won
