LIFE ON A PACIFIC STEAMER.

T. Hurle Writes of His Experiences on
Board an English Steamer-F'or
ties Observed Amusing to Americans
Recreation on Board Ship-A Bur
ial at Sea-
The following entertaining letter has
been received from a. correspondent of
the Journal and Courier, Mr. T. Hurle,
Of this city, now on trip around the
world, who writes on board the r. M.
S. Steamer Warrimoo, of the Canadi-
an-Australian line:
Dear Journal and Courier:
1 left Victoria October Sth on board
the Canadian Pacific steamer "Warri-
moo" with forty first-class passengers
and full cargo, for Sidney via Homo
lulu. She is a very comfortable we'll
equipped ship, with large roomy state
rooms, a fine dining and music saloon
and splendidly ventilated.
1 was very much amused at the stiff
formal ceremony on these English
steamers; for instance, at the dinner
table, the walters, of which there are
eight beside the head waiter, who are
all in uniform, stand in row like sol
diers on a dress parade. AT a signal
from the waiter they all move in line
to the cooks galley; they return each
with q silver plated dish held breast
high in front of him, containing the
first course; standing in a line they
wait the signal from the head waiter
when they march and pass the dish ir
front of each guest to help himself
There is the same ceremony through
each course, of which there are usual.

Hyperion

Cleopatra" was brilliantly presented
at the Hyperion last evening by Miss
Fanny Davenport and her excellent
company before q delighted audience.
The stage effects were magnificent, and
the audience was held spellbound in the
great climax of spectacular effects in
the tempest scene in the fifth act. Miss
Davenport's Interpretation of the role
Of the great Egyptian queen was SUI
perb, and in this character she achieves
in the opinion of many of her admirers,
her highest dramatic success, and dis
plays to the highest degree her dra-
matte ability. She is ably supported by
that sterling actor, Melbourne Mellow
ell, as Mark Antony. Mr.. w, II. ELL
wood as Kephreu, Cleapatra's slave,
was specially excellent. The support
ing company, as a whole, is very meri-
torious.
Miss Davenport presented "Cleopat-
ra" for three successive weeks at Phil
adelphia's leading theater, with the
theater crowded to excess each night,
and hundreds turned away. To this
American artist is due the credit of
mounting the play of Cleopatra in a
mannerrefiecting glory upon the Amer
lean stage, and of course to her art as
an actress is due her success as the
royal Queen of Egypt Sardou, 1t has
been remarked, owes more to Miss Da-
venport's business capacity than to any
other artist in the world for whom he
has written special plays, for his great
success as a playwright.
Cleopatra" will be presented again
tonight and tomorrow night, with
matinee this afternoon. Very large
houses are indicated for the Thanks
giving day performances, as also for
the closing performance on Saturday
night, when Fedora" will be given.
This being the farewell tour of Miss
Davenport in the Sardou plays, costly
silver souvenirs will be presented to
the ladies' as mementoes of the occa-
sion on Saturday night.

The Heart of Chicago" a scenic
coin Carriers new plays, was presented
at the Grand Opera house last evening
before large audience. In the pro-
duction are wrought a number Of thrill
ing climaXeS, the finest of which, and
which is immensely realistic, is loco
motive and train coming head-on TO
the audience-frst appearing in the
distance and then finally brought to a
standstill in full view Of the auditor
and just in time to avert going off the
supposed drawbridge into the river.
The effect is something entirely new
and highly interests the audience. The
scenes depicting the memorable Chi
cago fire are quite realistic and the
settings of Michigan avenue and the
roof garden of the Masonic temple, the
latter being the scene of an attempted
tragedy, are excellent brush effects.
The company, a well balanced one, in
cludes Miss Louis j. Mitchell, Miss
c. Philips, Charles Sellou, Winfield
Conger, Allen A. Hampton and George
Wood The advance sales have been
very large for the performances to-day,
the evening being well sold, but some
choice seats still remain for the matt
nee.
The very clever and capable actor,
Charles Cowles, comes to the Grand
opera house tomorrow and Saturday
nights and Saturday matinee and will
introduce for the first time in New Ha-
ven "a Country Merchant" a play
which from all accounts has the proper
ring from q comedy as well as dramat-
ic point, and offers various incidents
replete with all the elements of popu-
lar favor
If you really enjoy a funny play, be
sure and witness a performance of
Ioyt's "a Tin Soldier" when it comes
to the Grand opera house next Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday nights and
Wednesday matinee. You will certain
ly laugh from the time the curtain goes
up until it drops on the last act. 1t is
without doubt one of the best things of
the many clever farce comedies Charles
H. Hoyt has written.

ut was built by the devil, senor,"
said old Rodrigo Otero, in answer to a
question once1ning the age of a dilap-
idated adobe house that stands on the
banks of Alameda creek not far from
Niles.
And old Rodrigo may be right for all
anybody living knows. The house re-
ferred to is used as sort of storeroom
for a nursery, but none of the work of
storing is done by the Mexicans or In
dams living near by. They would al
most as soon think of cutting off their
right hands as going inside the ac-
cursed structure.
There is no record known to exist
that tells who built the place. 1t is
said to have been there when the mis-
sion back on the hill was built.
The present owner says it was on the
land when he bought it many years
ago. 1t did not take him long to find
out that it was haunted. In his esti-
nation it may be only the imagination
of the natives, but if the stories they
tell are true the place ought to be the
abode of spirits.

house than l do, senor,'' continued OLD
