The Two O'clock Train.

It was a very small Western town,
and the only train out that night left
at 2 o'clock. The travelling man had
impressed upon the night porter of the
hotel the Importance of calling him in
time for this train. Promptly at 1:30 a
rrodigious knock reused the sleeper

2 o'clock thrain?p

well, yez can shape an hour longer,
for she's so much late"
The heavy feet shuffied off down the
hall and silence ensued. Another hour
had passed, when Pat again knocked.
Say! be yez the felly what said he
wanted to ketch the o'clock thrain ?"
"Yes!" and there was a sound of the
man hastily springing from his bed.
We'll" drawled Pat, "yez can go
back to bed again, fer she's another
hour late
A forcible remark or two proceeded
from the travelling mans room, and
were audible to his awakened neigh
bors, as was the departure of Pat, but
soon all was quiet again, and the few
occupants of the hotel were left for
some time to undisturbed repose. Just
as the first faint strokes of dawn were
tinging the sky Pat once more made
his presence known, and, in terms CIV
ing unmistakable evidence Of recent
and heavy slumber, remarked:
Say! If yez was the felly what want

Los Angeles, comprises actors who
stand high in their profession. AT the
head of the organization are the we'll
known stars Joseph j. Bowling, ster-
ling actor of heroic parts; Myra Davis,
q charming singing s2ubrette, and Ar
thur Z. Moulton, an inimitable come
dian long associated with Frank Dan
iels in Little Puck" who will be well
remembered here. This clever trio has
a supporting company Of exceptional
merit, made up of artists who have been
associated with high-class attractions.
The repertoire of the company is va
ried one, and comprises well-knoWn
comedies and dramas, which for the
first time will be played here at popu-
lar prices during the season of the Da-
vis-Moulton Company.
The play in which the company will
make its debut here will be Paulton' S
sparkling comedy, ''Niobe," which made
so decided a hit at the Metropolitan
three seasons ago. 1t deals with the ad-
ventures OF a married man living IN
New York City, who is possessed OF
Jealous wife and mother-in-law. TO
oblige a friend he takes care of a ia
NOUS statue of Niobe. A legend tells
that the statue was never carved by hu-
man hands. but that Niobe, the beau
tiful Queen of Thebes, was turned TO
stone by magic power. Two thousand
years after this event the statue comes
to life in the house of the married man
The manner in which he fabricates
stories to explain to his wife and
mother-in-Iaw the presence in the
dwelling of the beautiful stranger give
rise to the funniest complications
There is not a dull line in the play, and
from the rise of the curtain to its fail,
the fun is kept at the boiling point. The
character of Niobe will be played by
Rose Stuart, who starred in the play
for two years and who, by her beauty
and talent has won hosts of admirers
Myra Davis will be seen as a hoydenish
young lady of mischievous tendencies,
and her magnetic style of acting viii
probably win for her general admira-
ton Arthur Moulton, as Peter Amos

has part which fits him perfectly, and
will enable him to repeat here his
clevar impersonation which received in
the East the hearty Endorsement of
press and public. Mr.. Moulton has a
budget of new songs, and ii will only
be but a few days ere everyone will be
singing them, for they are catchy, up
to-date and pleasing. The balance of
the characters in Niobe will be played
by Fanny Yantis, Helen Harrington,
Maud Archer, Lester Lonegrau, Will
lam Sellery, Henry Stockhridge, Charles
Gibney, all of whom are clever people,
who were specially selected for their
individual ability.

! the other artists of the company. AL
fred Cellier, the lamented composer of
Dorothy" had written a song for Mr.
Carleton, which he interpolated in "The
Queens Lace Handkerchief" entitled
Woman, Fair Woman" The cue for
this song had to be spoken by Mr.. Carle-
ton:
'Ah, woman, sweet woman, what
would we not peril for thy sake?'
Wilson had found in the property
room an enormous caricature of a fat
woman, such as are displayed outside
dime museums. AS Carleton in ro-
mantle tones gave the cue for the song,
Wilson stood in the wings holding up
this enormous picture of adipose femi-
| ninity, and, unfortunately, it caught
Cartoons eye just as the orchestra
played the symphony for the song. The
| singer bit his lips and tried to think
Of serious things, and made a great
effort to shut out the ridiculous picture
from his mind, but it was useless. After
| attempting to sing the first phrase. he
burst into almost hysterical laughter,
and realizing that the situation also had
serious side, he apologized to the
audience and explained his unusual ac-
| ton by saying something very ludicrous
| had occurred in the wings and left the
! stage. Recovering himself, he again
appeared in front of the audience and
| sang the song with more than his usual
| effort.
| In the meantime Colonel McCauIl.
who was a fiery Soutnerner and a strict
| disciplinarian, had witnessed the re-
| rnarkable scene from the front of the
house and demanded of the stage man
aeer an explanation. This having been
| given him, he Immediately repaired to
Wilson's room and with language more
| forcible than choice, said:
well, Mr.. Wilson l pay you to be
| funny on the stage. This will cost YOU
| $f00."
| The fine was exacted, and from that
period the comedian confined his hu-
| morous efforts to their legitimate
| sphere.

For the ''Record- Union
There was time when ladies wore
Big hats to every snow;
Thick trimmed with gewgaws, flowers ga
lore,
And birds and jimcracks from the store,
Where such things seem to grow.
At theaters it was their wont
To spread themselves around,
But chiefly foremost, or in front,
While those behind might snort or grunt
And mutter things profound.
The ladies learned (at lasD that they
Were somewhat impolite
In hosting, like load OF hay,
A lot of rubbish in the way
OF those who dearly had to pay
To see things out of sight
And so the ladies, one and all,
Gave their big hats away
To Mary Ann and Mrs. Call
To maids in kitchen and in hall
And poor girls who had none at all,
But wanted something gay.
All! then, we thought with joy, that we
Could go to every play,
And visit sights that we could see,
While for the same we'd gladly pay;
But woe, alas; Och hone a riei
Our hopes have periShd now for aye
We go to shows, we cannot see!
The hats are there, although they are
A dead cold give-away!
From representations made by COM
petent authority a welcome surprise,
we think, is in store for theater- -goers of
Sacramento in the forthcoming en-
gagement at the Clunie Opera-house of
the Davis -Moulton Company, which
makes its first appearance here to-mor-
row evening. During the past few years
the regular theatrical season has been
curtaiIed, and the closing of road COM
panies early in the year" led to a move
ment for the formation of summer stock
companies to play at popular prices
What at first was an experiment is now
an assured success. All over the coun-
try the public have opportunities to see
prominent players and plays at popu
lar prices, which during the regular
season command the higher scale of
prices charged for high-class attrac-
tionS.

Herne. U. S. A.; MY Partner" "A

The dramatic menu to be thus pre-
sented at the Clunie Opera-house is
varied enough to please the most exact
ing, and when the fact is taken into
consideration that plays and players or
such high standing are to be seen at
regular Clunie prices, it is safe to pre-
dict crowded audiences during the sea-
son.
The sudden death of Frank Mayo, the
accomplished dramatic artist, came as
a great shock to his many friends IN
Sacramento, and he had host of them
here. For Mayo was an old-time Cali
fornian and in early days was a prime
favorite here, and so remained not only
as an actor of sterling merit, but he
was a gentleman whose private life re-
flected credit upon his profession and
gave dignity and honor to it. One of
the first actors we saw in California on
our arrival here, now nearly forty years
ago, was Frank Mayo, then playing as
leader in the splendid stock company at
Maguire's Opera-house on Washington
street in San Francisco. His confreres
in those days were such choice spirits
as Dave Anderson, William Barry,
Walter Leman, Charles r. Thorne, Mr..
and Mrs. Stark, John Wood and wife,
Sophie Edwin, the Vaudeville sisters,
Kate and Sue DENIM, Sue Robinson,
Mrs. Judah, Mrs. Sanders, John Will
son, Louis Aldrich and a score of others
whose names are familiar to early Cali
fornians.
