Queer Statements In Court which May

Lead TO Farther Disclosures.
SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. OF the first days pro-
ceedings in court In the Fitzsimmons-Sharkey
matter are to DO taken as a sample of what is to
follow, the facts of the alleged deal by which
Sharkey won the purse may be brought to light.
Incidentally. from good authority, the tip is cir
culated that Fitz's extreme caution in the early
rounds was due TO bets which he had taken on
the proposition that Sharkey would last six
rounds.
The suit to-day was brought by Jimmy Car
roll to enforce judgment of n 5000 bill against
Fitzsimmons. CAROLS attorneys sought to
prove.that the $4,000 check awarded to Sharkey
really belongs to Fitz and 10 open to attach
mcnt. Another side of the case was a judgment
against Lynch himself taken by George Vena-
bles at New York last year. This latter
point was the reason why Lynch was so closely
questioned to-day about his interest In, the
purse awarded to sharkey: Lynch declared
sharkey's winnings. He said he paid his own
travelling expenses. never received salary from
but that he had managed him free of all charge,
depending on private bets to compensate him.

Before Lynch could get down to Sharkey's
rooms or hold any communication with him, the
gers statements. He declared that he had
only seen the check for a few moments since
the fight: that 1t had never been out Of
Lynch's hands, and that he had never known
any man named Dowdell. Furthermore. that
to his own knowledge Lynch went up to the
court room with the check in his pocket this
afternoon. He said. In addition that Lynch got
a "divvy" out of every one OF his fights. and
that 1t was absurd to think that his manager
worked for nothing. Subsequently he repeated
these statements to Judge Groesinger, who took
a bed side deposition.
Lynch. in his evidence. said that he owned
sixteen horses in his own name. Two of those
that he mentioned are claimed by other parties.
and an attachment has been hled on the balance
OF the string on behalf of Nenables. The man

~"LOHENGRIS" MATINEE.
The Work of the Chorus Far Below the
MetroPoIItan standard.

Metropolitan Standard.
The second performance for this season of
Wagner's Lohengrin' drew a crowded house
yesterday afternoon In the Metropolitan. The
cast was in all respects like that of the first
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES, the two De Reszkes,
Olitzka, Bispham. DE Vries-and Seid! con-
Quoting.
Every one of these artists is not only either
great and gifted or at least coE petent. and all
seemed infused with that earnestness OF pur-
pose which alone can bring results even where
talent is most lavishly endowed.
Nine. Eames appeared especially energetic
and spirited yesterday. bringing to her role a
maturity aud ease only to be founed in the fn-
ished artist she may now justly claim to be.
With all the principals there could be indeed but
little fault found. Mile. Olitzka, though not
classic or graceful in either posing or move
mont, was nevertheless effective and suggestive
as Ortrud. Ably seconded and abetted. too,

dark background of jealousy and hate against
which the beauty and purity OF Ella and the
Rodlike nobility and graciousness of Lohenyrin
could stand out in striking illumination. Bis
pham's splendid vocal method, so honest,
straightforward and correct. has nowhere as
yet shone to SO great a advantage as In this role.
1t IA such a RELIEF to have good singing abso-
lutely satisfactory in tone on the operate stage.

following these they give many successive bad
ones; some apparently have no sense Of rhythm
or time.
Bat reform is evidently at present most need
ed In the chorus OF the Metropolitan. The men
yesterday were most OF the time wofully below
pitch. How they do this act is a myhtery. How
they persistently. consistently. and l~ength!ly
keep just a quarter OF a tone below the orches-
ira. which Is every moment giving them the
note in proper time. only the chorus itself can
understand.
The Metropolitan organ must, have been
played yesterday by n member OF the chorus.
for 1t. too. was a half tone Hat. This Is another
inexplicable phenomenon.
Mr.. Seidl showed nerve when he sat calmly
through tho eight or ten bars when the organ
chimed in with orchestra and chorus and three
different pitches were discoverable., There Is
no excuse for such unskil:ul musical work. II
the same slovenliness and inexactness were
shown In the scenic department or in stage
management tho whole Metropolitan Opera
would shortly be broken up.
Seidl had his men under spl0 did Control. and
when orchestra and prlnclpafs only occupied
the scene everything was smooth and con-
cordant. IL does seem a pity that, after so many
years of supposedly intelligent drilling. n re-
liable chorus which should even at times sing
with expression cannot be obtained; Perhaps,
however, this is one of tho joys only to be ex-
pected in the millennium.

Hunting the wild Goat.

The wild goat or Rocky Mountain goat
as it is unfortunately called, is spe-
cies Of big game rarely hunted by sports
men. This is not so much because Of
the difficulty Of killing the animal, nor
because Of its actual rarity. It is stupid
animal, easily shot when once found. 1t
is not, however, found in the usual nunt-
ing grounds, as are bear, deer, elk. etc.
1t is remote from the common localities.
but where found is in goodly numbers.
1t ranges very high up in the mountains.
above timber line usually, among rocks
and cliffs. This requires great labor to
get to it, but once there the hunter will
get his game nine times out of ten.
