Making Money Out Of It.

Primrose and West found them selves, in Michigan, the centers of excitement. When their show ap- peared in Kalamazoo, news was re- ceived at the Democratic headquar- ters from the chairman of the State Committee that the minstrels were using jokes especially designed at Republican headquarters. It seems that this report grew out of the fact that George Wilson, while ill Detroit, made some comical allusion to the Democrats. When the news was received, the Democratic paper of Kalamazoo took occasion to make d bitter attack on the show. Prim- rose and West have instructed theic attorneys to bring suit for libel against the Kalamazoo paper. as well as the Democratic State Com mittee, claiming in each case $100, 000 damages The funny part of the story is that the excitement has widely advertised the show, W hich has been playing to packed houses all through Michigan Mirror.

Louis James, in Romeo and Juliet /" "Hartacus'' and My Lord and Some Ladies" has inst com pleted weeks engagement in New Orleans. Of the latter play B drama tic critic says: "Z1dy Lord and Some Ladies, /" adapted from the French by Theodore Kramar, a young journal ist of San Francisco, was produced here 29th, for the first time on any stage, 5y Mir. James, Go. The comedy is somewhat historical, deal- ing with the adventures of Lord Bolinbrook at the court of Queen Ann of England. His Lordship is great statesman, member of Parlia- ment and brilliant wit, according to the play, and has as his opponent the crafty and celebrated Duchess of Marlboro, who. through intrigue and weIl-laid pit-falIs, endeavors to ruin his Lordship's favor with the Queen. The clever manner in which Lord Bolinbrook avoids all snares is the principal theme of the play. As background two love stories run their troubled course to happy mar riages. The play was well given and well received, and no doubt will meet with the same success elsewhere.

toned by Mettler about the missing goods
West always declared that they had been
sold and the money put into the drawer.
The proprietor was 10th to believe that his
clerk was dishonest, and let the m after
pass.
West recently returned from a vacation
and was informed that his services were
no longer required. He then rented a
storeroom on D street, and proposed to
open a hardware-store in his own name.
This fact excited suspicion. and a search
warrant revealed the fact that his stock
would have consisted of the goods stolen
from Mertler. They were found in q
locked room in Vests house. There were
kegs of nails, coils of rope, oil stoves,
plains. saws, hammers and hundreds of
other articles and small trinkets. West
was promptly arrested. The goods stolen

IS A GREAT FORECASTER
Arrival of Clement L. Wragge,
Who Has Charge of All
Australasia.
He Says He Will Soon Predict the
Kinds of SeasonS-Antarctic
Mysteries.

Clement L. Wragge, Government Meteor
ologist OF Queensland and director of the
chief weather bureau of Brisbane, Aus
tralia. is at the Palace. He is en- route to
Paris to attend the international Meteor
illogical Congress, which meets there on
September 10.
While on his way he will visit many of
the weather bureaus of the United States.
He spent a good deal of time yesterday at
the weather bureau here, and was greatly
interested in what ne was told concern
ing it.
Mr.. Wragge is meteorologist OF world
wide fame. He established the hydro
graphic station on the lofty Ben Nevin, in
Scotland, and had charge of ita number of
wears. In Australia he has made great
triumphs in his particular line. From his
Office in Brisbane he receives daily weather
reports from Manila, Hong-kong. Snga-
more. Batavia and all Australia, including
Ia smania, New Zealand and New Gale
donia.
The Queensland Government is receiE-
ing. he says, vast amount of irforma-
ton pertaining 10 the agriculture, pastoral
aud shipping interests. Itorganized spe-
cial meteorological department first in
1887, Mr.. Wragge then taking charge OF 1t.
He has been preparing iso5aric maps for
the whole region between 40 deg. north
latitude and 55 deg. south latitude, and
between 30 deg. east longitude and 130
deg. west longitude.
News is received by post from many
places not reached by telegraph. Informa-
ton is furnished to those interested in
shipping, based on the principles emanat-
ing from Washington and England. He
SAYS there is a splendid service, and that
inform alton in reference to monsoons and
great storms of various kinds is furnished
from one to sixteen days ahead OF their
arrival.
ave are now,n said he, "inaugurating
plans so that we may forecast the seasons
with good degree of accuracy. We are
looking to exploring into the mysteries OF
the Antarctic, which, by the way, is a
great held for photographic investigation.

to Samoa, Tonga, Tahiti and the various
outlying islands of the Pacific"

Society Punished for Past Neg.
lect of the Pigeon
Shooters.
UPPER CLASSES ARE THINKING
Failure of the Meet Ascribed Il
Bsd Management From
NB ing'um."

Society is perturbed. The usual COM
placent calm which is the class distinc-
ton is conspicuous by reason of its alb
sence. The elect are wondering why it is
that the BurIingame-D Del Monte meet Is
not success.
Sad though it be to acknowledge the
fact the successors OF the Country Club
are tending toward that slippery path
that spells failure" Unhappy word
that. Society shuddeIs and asks why
Numerous theories have been advanced as
to the cause OF the glacial reception of
Burlingame's first effort. The Country
Club has held aloof and Del Monte is
dreary.
The story Of the early frost is thus told
by one whose fortunes are cast with the
Country Club.
81 do not understand that there is any
GOODNESS existing between the Burlinga me
Club and the Country Club. 1t is tr ne
that the present meeting at Monterey is
nat a success, but the failure to get an
audience of admiring spectators and par
ticipants is due TO bad management.
Vain wright does not understand how to
manage a paper chase. He should have
placed this event in the hands of ArchI-
bald.
The San Rafael people know what
Archibald can do, and il he had been Sc
lected they would have gone 10 Del Monte.
The fact is that the BurlIngame repre-
sentstives are not clever enough to gain
success. The members of the Country
Club are not staying away from Del Monte
because Of feeling toward *he Burlingame
Club, but because there is nothing to at
tract them there"
well-kno#n society man, whose 10y
atty to the Burlingame set cannot be ques-
toned, gives this explanation OF the cold
wave:
Years ago the Country Club people had
1t all there own way at De- Monte. They
took their guns along aRd shot live
pigeons TO the delight of the ladies' and
so gained great applause.
Two years ago they invited the Bur-
l1ngame Club to Join them. Well, the
Burlingaule members went down and put
up beautiful entertainment IN polo and
racing. The members of the Country
Club were of IN the field shooting pigeons,
but society didn't go near them. Nobody
cared for pigeon shooting or pigeon-shoot-
ers ThentAe horses were in sight Every
one wanted to see the beautiful turnout
Hngame. Next year there was repe-
tition. The Country Club pigeons hooters
were more neglected than ever, and the
attractions which Burlingame presented
caught the admiration OF all visitors.
Now the Country Club stays away.
Society has had enough of pigeon shoots.
The displeasure which the Country Club
is now manifesting will not hurt Burlin-
game in the end.
Whatever may be- the true explanation
of the trouble it is obvious that many OF
the leaders in society, who were once only
too glad 10 join the throng at Del Monte,
are at home complacently reading the
meteorological reports from Monterey and
wondering il any of the buds of BurIin-
game will be nirped by the early frost
