age from the country for which he had
spent the best years of his life fighting.
Gori was thoroughly effective and dra-
matte as the old soldier, and Mrs. Bianci
Cafe gave graceful Interpretation of the
daughters role. E. Bonini showed con-
siderable dramatic ability as Don Andred,
the kind old village priest, and f. Bar
beris, G. Vezzetto and P. Pedretti were all
good in their respective parts.
1t was the 'sFantocci Coloniali," how
the evening. These comic sketches, COM
posed for the occasion by Pietro Gori, were
skits on some Of the leading members of
the colony.
The scene was supposed to pass in the
foyer of a ballroom, with number of dis
tinguished officers and other guests dane
ing within. The makeup of the actors,
who kept passing back and forth, was i'm
mediately recognized. An orator of the
colony, who likes to reduce social ques-
tions to Equations" was at once recog-
niZed in his prototype on the stage. So
were two distinguished 'cavalieri," who
wore ribbons and orders and were called
upon by the populace to make speeches.
Among the other characters were q
bright young journalist with passion for
photography and gentleman of social
istic tendencies, who strongly disap-
proved of anarchists. Taken altogether,
the skits were amusing, without being cal
culated to wound the feelings of those car
featured. Mrs. Bonini, who had played
the mother in 'Senza Patria," showed her
versatility by giving sprightly. inter-
pretation of masked dancer. The enter
tainment ended by Gori reciting his fine
poem, "Addio San Francisco"
The San Francisco call., 1896-03-16

The new organization numbers nearly
90 members, and most of them were
present, with following of friends
and admirers of Gori and of his eloquence.
The enthusiasm was immense, for Gori' s
farewell address had Just been delivered,
and when his remarks eliminated by pre-
senting the banner, the red and black
bunting was received with as many ac-
Carnations as if 1t had been flag round
which the audience was rallying to fight
for hearth and home.
The flag of the anarchists proved to be
of blood.red color, tastefully bordered
with deep black, and on the red ground
was inscribed in black the legend, ST. S.
A. L. I. N. X. Allianza Socialism,
Anarchica di San Francisco" (Socialistic-
Workmen of North America, San Fran
cisco branch).
The banner was handsomely mounted
on black staff tipped with gold, and it
presented an extremely picturesque and
imposing appearance.
When the acclamations which greeted
the flag had subsided enough for Pietro
Gori to make himself heard he presented
Mrs. G. Cafe, the best-known lady orator
in the italian colony. and asked her to say
few words from the feminine side of the
question.
This young lady, who spoke with re-
markable earnestness and conviction,
said, among other things: "Weak OF
voice but strong OF soul, / bow to the grea:
populace. Salve! to you, fellow-laborers.
To-day we clasp our hands in eternal fra
ternity. To you, fellow-laborers, consign
this flag, red with the blood of the popu.
lace's. martyrs, the symbol of suffering
and of future triumph. To this banner,
the only one in the world that is not a
symbol of tyranny, solemnly swear love,
fidelity and respect. When the day of
struggle and of vindication shall have
come, this banner will conduct you to
the noble ideal for which we all ardently
sigh"
Another wild burst of applause foil owed
this invocation, after which Gori exhorted
his followers in more elegant phrases,
however, not to "hello!" till they were
out of the wood. at is useless to delude
yourselves; you cannot fight in the van
guard of great movement if you are not
ready to make sacrifices. The greatest
bitterness will come to you from those to
whom you wish well and who will not un-
derstand you. Buffoons will laugh at
our simple ceremonies but heed them not,
for you are to work for the future welfare
of humanity. We are an association OF
propagandists, not shop for the dissem-
ination of bombs. We can offer you no
hopes of Office; you will never become

the words of Dante:

AS these words were pronounced band
situated in the rear Of the hall struck up
the 'Marseillaise." Some of the audience
applauded wildly. others took up the
strains of the terrible hymn and sang the
refrain, "Aux Armes, Citoyens, Formez

piackmailing, in which Mrs. Davidson re-
views her case In somewhat defiant man
ner. The woman who received the letter
was quite intimate with Mrs. Davidson
when the latter was member OF the Rev.
a. a. Williams congregation, and is one
OF the very few people who stood by Mrs.
davidson during here troubles here. When
Mrs. Davidson was arrested she began cor
responding with her, and this is the Sec
ond letter received.
In the letter she SAYS:
SAN FRANCISCO, March 8.
Ny Dear Sister an Christ: Your dear letter
feaehed me yesterday. was so glad to hear
from you and your goodness I'll never forget.
There are so very few of my old friends who
care to know me now that l can't help feeling
good TO know that there is one friend OF mine
LETT in Lynn. The rest forgot me when was
unfortunate there.
| am feeling much better now than l was
when wrote you last. l cannot talk much
about my case, because my lawyer says not
to. but can tell you that I'm going to De VIC
torlous. Dr. Brown is having al ne can hanoie
before the church council, and he's lucky II
the council, in spite of his powerful friends,
don't find him guilty.
Another girl besides Miss Overman Will be In
1t, guess.
Anyway, he's convinced by this time that /
told him the truth when l said the people
would believe him guilty. They do and Will.

as I'm concerned when the court takes up my
case he'll be very sorry he was so smart Not
half has come out in the church favorable TO
me that will come out in court. My lawyer
says no jury in California will ever con-
vict me.
Cora's husband (Edgerley) has been shown
up again, this time for new club he's formed,
and one of the papers here printed 1t under
big headlines because he was my son-ln-law.
l felt bad at that, because it may make people
think my whole family are disreputable.
But then He will look out for us all.
No; shall not leave here. When this case is
over I shall resume my usual life and live
down this scandal. l can do 1t, and know
when the people know the truth they will
not blame me. They will be more Christian
than DR., Brown Had been less of a Chris
tian, and not done by the doctor as l would
have him do by me, would have been all
right. and never had this trouble. But, then,
no cross no crown.
She then goes on to speak of her friends,
family and of the Rev. Mr.. Williams and
other Lynn acquaintances, and closes:
So good-by, dear sister. shall hope to hear
from you soon again. Please send me what
the Lynn and Boston papers say about me-.
Yours in Christ, MARY A. DAVIDSON.

and, with the .'Marselllaise" ringing in
their ears, the audience was about to dis
perse, when F. Bairbaris sprang forward
and asked the members of the federation
to express their sense of gratitude for the
propaganda Pietro Gori had made among
them. The response to this was storm of
applause and "Evvivas"
In his address, which preceded the in
auguration of the banner Gori summed up
all his argument used in previous lectures
and aimed some special shot at some mem
bers of the Socialistic League who have ac-
cused him of being confusionist. "Your
Order and Our Disorder was the title of
his discourse, and he labored to prove that
Governments, by their examples of armed
force, are responsible for all the sin, crime
and misery in the world.

TWO SUDDEN DEATHS.

The Bodies of Max Levy and James
Mccarthy Taken to the Morgue.
Two sudden deaths were reported at the
Coroner's Office yesterday. The first was
that of Max Levy, aged So years, who was
found at 1880 o'clock in the forenoon at
the residence of his sister, Mrs. Nicholson,
1206% Turk street, where he had been
stopping for some time. The deceased
had been in poor health for some time
previous, and when found by his nurse,
a. @. McMaster, he was fully dressed and
lying across the bed.
An examination of the body by the
Coroner showed that death had resulted
from apoplexy.
Officer Jennings discovered the dead
body of James Mccarthy, aged 38 years, a
horseshoer, in the vegetable market on
Pacific and Front streets at o'clock. 1t
is supposed that his death resulted from
natural causes, as be had been dissipating
of late.

"Let others call anarchy folly and mad

presented the red and black flag of an

The Dog-KilIers of Japan.

Quite new departure in insurance has
been devised in Kioto. The dogs of that
city, as in many other places, are (the Brit
ish consular report says) harassed by their
inveterate foes the dog-killers. Some
shrewd persons have, therefore, conceived
the idea of starting dog insurance COM
death of a dog by payment of small
monthly premium. Death from natural
causes is, however, not insured; it must
be death at the hands of dog-killers. What
the KILLERS" do with the dogs is notstated..
In the neighboring empire of China they
would eat them.

John Holmes, an Intoxicated Sailor,
Discharges His Pistol on the

A drunken sailor with a loaded pistol
and bowling crowd of men and boys at
the Broadway wharf was one of the Sum-
day afternoon excitements.
The arrival of the police brought the
circus to an end, not, however, until the
sailor had discharged one shot at man
named Jackson. The latter imagined, at
least, that the shot was intended for him.
Sailor John Holmes was locked up at the

an assault with deadly weapon against

where grand feast OF good things was
enjoyed by the rusticators.
During the shoot Tanning scored thirty

Simply c Lie-Nothing More.

We take this opportunity of de- nouncing as lie the story now being circulated by interested par ties that a combination has been entered into between Anson H. Smith and John s. Kolar, by which the former is to become undersher- if in the event of the latter's elec- ton to the office of sheriff. Mir. Kolar has been a friend of the edi- tors for many years, and while we would like to see him advanced po- litically we have no inter. st in the matter. At present we do not even know that we will support Mir. Kolar in the MINER. If the per sonnel of the democratic ticket suits us we will support it, if not we will not. The democrats of Mohave county do not care wheth- CT they are supported or not from present indications and we are in a similar frame of mind.

Honest old John Sherman made the remarkable statement at Col umbus Saturday last that twenty years ago sixteen ounces of silver were worth one of gold, but that legislation could not now give sil- yer a greater value than it could be purchased for in the open mar ket. Honest Old John failed to state that the market value would rise to the coinage value under free coinage and that the small amount of silver on the market would not cause a depression in the price. John Sherman's assertions are the babblings of a diseased brain. His assertions are simply reiteration of the old gags he has been pour ing into the public ear for years.

A question has been asked, Does the standard silver dollar pass at it's face value in England? IL does not. An exchange is charged on it just the same as greenbacks, with the additional charge of trans portation added. Our republican theory that the dollar is backed up with gold should make it an in- formation coin, but in this they are mistaken.

Kisses were mingled with cheers during the speech. Altgeld- ism. Tillmanism and repudiation was the text of Hon. w. Burk Cockran's speech. It made no voters and more firmly set the minds of the Bryan supporters.

It is impossible to reconcile the arguments of the eastern goldbug press. One editor of note says that Bryan is the hired instrument of the mine owner; that he seeks to legislate fifty cents worth of silver into a dollar and thereby enrich the miner two hundred fold. An other of the prominent fellows says that silver dollar is only worth fifty cents and that as the work man will be paid in silver his sal ary will be cut in two. Which is the correct proposition? We rath- CT think the eastern farmer has posted himself on the question and will negative the goldbug proposi- tion next November at the polls A silver dollar will be as good as any other dollar under free coinage, as it is to-day.
