Grand Opera-House.

1.-THE Brand of Cain" is the name OF the ro-
mantle play given at the Grand this week.
Miss Mamie Sheridan Wolford, rather clever
little woman. made her initial appearance at
the Grand and promises to establish herself as
a favorite. Her part is tn at of an Irish servant
whose chief mission in life is to save the hero
and heroine from horrible deaths. This she
does in most diverting way. She and Nat
Willis have all the comedy there is in tho
play.
Fred Butler plays dual role, the usual
thing, a good and a bad brother, in an effec-
tive manner, ana surely the stage has no
other such u "dyed IN the WOOL villain as
John Person. Landers Stevens plays the
"good old man." who as usual. is doomed 10
death in the early part of the story, but he
makes q most wonderful escape and lives to
accuse the wrong man of the crime. Lorena
Atwood has but little to do. but such as it is
she does it we'll

lowing letter 10 The CALL for publication:
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, June 80. 1897
Morning Cdu Market street, City-DEAR SIRs:
We wish to state the facts regarding the tire on
the ship Commodore which took place yester-
day at 3:15 P: NJ, as the statements in the Ex-
aminer and Chronicle were not correct regard
ing the captain.
When the fire alarm sounded the captain
was in our office and Immediately ran to the
ship Commodore and just arrived there in
time to get on board before the gangplank
dropped off the wharf as the men had already
cast off the stern fastenings. He then had
line run over to the opposite wharf and hove
the ship over with the engine clear OF the hre
While getting the hose from the steamer we
were surprised to find the ship drifting astern
into the flames on account OF the head lines
being let 60 on the wharf and without any Or
ders from the captain.
While drifting past the wharf the ancnor
hooked on to the wharf aud carried away the
cathead-stopper and the anchor dropped to
the. bottom, the chain running out as she
drifted clear of the wharf.
Permit US to say that had not the headline
been cast off the ship Commodore would have
sustained but very little damage.
Trusting you will give this your careiuI
attention, we remain, dear sirs, yours very
truly, w. A. hooLE'
j. DAVIDSON,

work in saving the ship from total destruc-
