In Proper Shape at,Last.

The sealing regulations for 1896 have ar
rived at last, and but for Broker Thornley, they
might stiu be in the hands of the clerks of the
Treasury Department at Washington. Mr..
Thornley, has been importuning the customs
authorities so much about the untimely regu-
lations that it was with sigh of relief that
Deputy Collector Farley was able to hand over
score or more OF the regulations in pamphlet
and date on them The numerous clients OF
the industrious broker are now ready to trim
their sails and put to sea for the little bit OF
the season that remains. The winter season
closes April 30. The sealers do not see why
the regulations could not have been prepared
by the Treasury Department and sent here
from Washington early in December

MRS. WADDILL'S RETURN
The White Wife Sought Shelter
Among Strangers at San
Rafael.
By Advice of Colored Woman She
Came Back and Told Her Story
to the Police.

Mrs. W. NJ. Waddill, the white woman
who left her colored husband last week, as
told in Sundays edition of THE CALL has
been at San Rafael.
She returned yesterday to see Chief
Crowley, and to him she told her story
The Chief said he could do nothing for
arranged for to-day.
At San Rafael Mrs. Waddill, accom-
panied by her three-year-old son, went to
the home of Mrs. James Dowan, a colored
widow, and asked if she could stay there
over night. She said she was passing by
and happened 10 notice that colored people
lived there, and she knew they would be
friendly to her.
Mrs. Dowan lives in small house on
Third street, near A. She was interviewed
yesterday afternoon by CALL representa-
tive. She said that she did not know Mrs.
Waddlll before the latter came to her home
yesterday. The little boy accompanied
her and Mrs Dowan after hearing the
story said that the two might remain.
Mrs. Waddill told Mrs. Dowan that her
husband had been beating her and abusing
ner IN thousand ways and for that reason
she had left him. Mrs. Dowan says she
told her many stories of her husbands
cruelty to her and the child.
II told her," said Mrs. Dowan, that
she had better go over to the City and tell
her story TO the Chief of Police, who would
see that she was protected. She said that
she would do so. / think she will come
out all right, if the story she told me is
correct"
Mrs. Waddill also told the story to
others at San Rafael, one of those persons
being Manuel Ramos, proprietor of a res
taurant on Fourth street, where she took
lunch.
Waddill denies that he has abused his
wife In any way. He says that he will
make no attempt to compel her to live
with him against ner will, but that he will
insist on having the custody of the child
if his wife noar a ,rn,r

A NEW GENERAL COMMITTEE.
The Old Guard Reappeared to Help
Organize It at Odd Fellows
Hall.

Nine hundred Buckley Democrats and a
few others came to order late in Odd
Fellows Hall last evening, when Joseph
Rothschild hammered vigorously with his
gavel and called together the old and new
Democratic general committees.
The hall was crowded, the galleries were
well populated, the sawdust was thick, the
cigar and cigarette smoke was soft and
brooding, and the programme was ready
for action. Those present were more used
to sawdust on the floor than was Odd

At Grnvar,s Alnazar

The good old comedy drama, "The
Wolves of New York" is drawing good
houses at the Alcazar. It has certain
attraction that makes it worth witnessing,
and Mr.. Grover brings it out in the best
possible style. Il is beyond a doubt one
of the best pieces he puts on, and his con-
ception of Robin O'Malley is just about
right. Charles Bates as Pud Filters is a
new man, but he is very clever in his
tough parts. He has rich Bowery brogue
that would delight Ned Townsend,
Josephine Gassman sets out a few negro
songs IN the character of Topsy blue, and
owns the house when she twitches her
heels with a down-South movement.
Francis Powers plays the sharper just as
though he was one, and is SO neat at it
that the audience really gets down on him
for being such a crook.
'"The Wolves run until next Monday
night, when Hereward Hoyt, the pride of
the matinee attendant, will return to his
admirers

the dialect and the mannerisms of the
class of mountain maiden-rough, but
good hearted-whom she represents. Her
embarrassment when she found herself in
boys clothes was prettily assumed.
Alace M. Snyder played the part of the
colonel's fiancee naturally, and the
colonel himsef was well impersonated bv
ii. B. Bradley. Ralph Stuart was at home
as the hero, Frank Layson, and Peirce
Kingsley was properly brutal as the savage
and jealous lover.
One of the features of the performance
consisted of the negro specialties, which
were excellently realistic as well as being
true TO the locality represented.

Ixion at the Tiyoli,

The NEUROLOGICAL opera is still on at the
Ilvoh. A great many new songs have
been introduced and several improve
ments have been added. 1t is not
however, what it used to be. A great
deal OF the glamour of Ixion has faded
and the tinsel needs renewing. Ferris is
still laughable and Alice Carle sings some
good songs. Thomas Leary springs few
local hits in an unmusical ditty, while
Jack Rafael proves his right to sing barry
tone on any stage in the country
About half of the characters in 'Ixion"
are said to be immortals. 1t looks from
the way it is running that they all are.

THE STOCK MARKET.

The bottom dropped out of Thursday afternoons s
boom yesterday and prices went down about as
fast as they had gone up will be seen by the list
of sales. The drop was caused by less favorable
news from the front. AT first it reporte ed that
three feet of ore had been cut In the bottom OF in
cline shaft in Norcross ground on the Brunswick
lode lying on the footwal which the incline is
scalping along in its downward progress, and that
this ore gave average assay of $3S per ton.
The shaft is down about $50 feet the slant, and
the point where the was found is about so feet
vertically below the 400 level, which is being
opened by north and south drifts from the sh aft
station. Yesterdays news was that the assays
were much smaller than at first thought, hence
the break.
Superintendent Gorham makes the following
report of work don in the Savage Brunswick
ground during the past week: Brunswick lode
Shaft mo. shaft is down 64 feet on the ope,
16 feet having been added during the week; the
footwail IS exposed in the bottom, on which lies
streak of low grade quartz feet wide.
On the 200 level the Joint Savage-Norcross-
Chollar Potosi vertical upraise has been advanced
feet and is now up 65 feet; top in hard rock. On
the 800 level the west crosscut started 100 fee.
north OF the south line, has been driven 1S feet
through porphyry and clay, at which point the
main foOtwell was encountered. A eas crosscut
has been started opposite 1t and extended 3S feet
through poTpnyry and clay, face being that
material On the 400 level he joint Savage N Or
cross north drift, under the supervision of the
Norcross company, has been extended 40 feet;
total length 175 feet; face in porphyry and clay,
which is good working ground.

Company and Edwin R. Dimond, executors of
the estate of W. H. Dimond. 1t appears that
some years before his decease General Dimond
insured his life for $4,000. In 1898 he as
Abell who demanded payment of the COM
pany. At the same time the executors also
laid claim 10 the $40, 1000, with the result that
the insurance company was placed in some
what embarrassing position. In order to be
on the safe side of the legal fence the Penn
Mutual Company seeks to have the executors

great reversal of form in the next 10
or IL DAYS, he will surely start favorite
in the Oakley Derby, If only on his
reputation, and 1t is not unlikely that
he will find himself in harder game
than that at Louisville.
Under the conditions of the Oakley
Derby, which, by the way, is worth
s12, 500 more than double the value of
the Louisville event, a winner of
81 500 3-year-old stake must carry
weight for age; winners OF such
stake arc allowed five pounds; win
ner of $1,000 3-year-old stake must
carry three pounds penalty; OF three
stakes for 3-year-olds. five pounds pen
atty. Mr.. Dwyer will hardly send him
for anything but the Clark stakes, so
that his weight in the Derby will be
122 Under the rule of estimating win
nings the Louisville Derby was worth
S. 900, less the amount OF the winners
stake, so that he just escapes the three
pound penalty. Under such conditions
Ben Elder gets in at III. and, on form,
should beat the other Ben; but there
are others.
At Louisville there were IL elig1blei
alt Oakley they are 40 that have made
the last payment and are entitled 10
start All that went to the post IN the
Falls City race are eligible at Oakley
and 80 more Among them are several
known qualities. or the former Hops
I.audeman's great Ramiro, the second
choice in the winter books for the
Louisville Derby, will certainly be
ready for the great Cincinnati event.
The other Ramiro from the racine
coast, Lucky Baldwin's crack, will
also be there.
Byron McClelland promises to be
close contender with his new Henry or

| of any 3-year-old in America, and ne

Nimrod. that was in the first flight OF
| 2-year-olds last spring. Some thlnk
! he Is the coming 3-year-old. Pat
| Dunno. who has a habit of bringing
| ont great race horses, has Frontier and
Captive in. The former will hardly do
but the latter is surely a high class colt

| highest opinion. His temporary lame
\ ness at Memphis was nothing serious,
| and Dunno is very likely to SEND MIN

/ Lean, which is playing in rather hard

Louisville Derby, and the latter was

! Rem Elder has called the Ben Brush
bluff. and trainers are not so much
afraid of the eastern owned colt, as
they were a week ago. Then IT is GER
tain that an unusually large field OF
the greatest colts in the country VIII
