encores was Tosti's "Penso," to which
she PLAYED her own accompaniment in a
very effective manner.
There was no doubt about the good

addition TO all the above mum bers she also
sang a romanZa by Mascsgni, "Pena d.

sympathetically accompanied by j.

M. Louis Crepaux, who is we'll known in

The new coasting steamer Coquilie River

picture as she sped up and down the
water front. Pictures of both vessels
have appeared In IHE CALL, ana de-

Tho Pacific Mail Company's City of
Peking sailed for the ORIENT yesterday.
The big liner never looked in fairer trim
than when she moved away from her
dock and encountered the Doric in mid
stream. The former was loaded to her
full capacity, while the latter was flying
light.
The steam schooner Crescent City ar
rived and sailed a. ain yesterday. The
vessel was long overdue, and considerable
anxiety was teIt on her account. When
off her port of destination the storm
caught her, and Captain Allen had TO put
out to sea. Time and again the steamer
was swept by the waves, and everything
movable was washed overheard. Finally,
however, port was reached and the pas
sengers landed in safety. The Crescent
was eleven days overdue, but the delay
was entirely due to the weather.
People on the Mail dock would like TO
know where David G. Craig is. The last
seen OF him was when he was taking pass-
age on the steamer UmatilIa, for Victoria.
B. Z. A little while previously he was
seen in the Safe Deposit building drawing
money from the bank.
Craig accused Superintendent Anderson
of taking coffee beans away from the
wharf without accounting for them. This
was in letter to the Office and when the
superintendent heard OF it he at once had
Craig arrested for criminal libel. Craig
got out on bonds, and the last heard of
him was when he was taking passage on
the Umatilla for British Columbia.

A Music Festival.

Four California oratorio societies have
decided to combine in order to give a
music festival during the month of April
These societies are the San Francisco and
San Jose oratorio societies, members of
the Oakland Oratorio Society and the
Alameda society, which recently gave
1.-THE Messiah" under the conductorshi2
of Edward Crandail.
The leading feature of the festival will
be grand performance of THE Mes

of selections from well-Known oratorios.
Nine. Geneva Bishop, one of the best
known oratorio singers IN America, will
come from Chicago as the soprano soloist
She has sung extensively i'll the East and
in Europe. During her sojourn in the
British Isles she rassed some time with
Patti at Craig-y-Nos. Negotiations with
otner Eastern soloists are also in progress.
Singers of moderate ability will be re-
ceived in the chorus James Hamilton
Howe will conduct and Bernhard Molten
hauer will be concert master and one of
the soloists of the festival.

D. B. WooIf, secretary to the Supreme
Court Commissioners, is at Sacramento
with big budget of statistics for the en-
lightenment of those legislators who may
desire information as to the work of that
body during the discussion of the bill to
continue its life. The Supreme Court
Commission will, as such, die in May of
this year unless the bill passes.
The bill provides for the continuance of
the commission for four years more. The
business of the commission is to assist the
Supreme Court in its work. The court
assigns to it such cases as il sees ft and
the Commissioners study these cases and

Beatty has taken but one vacation-a ten

Ward P. Winchell, passed assistant en-
gineer of the United States ship PhiIadel-
phia, has written Mrs. WInchell here from
Callao, stating that a day or two before
Christmas the officers of the ship went
over the celebrated Meiggs road in the
Andes to height of Is, ,665 feet. Many of
the officers were almost deathly sick, the
sickness in some cases lasting several
days. Mrs. Winchel is the daughter of
A. P. Minear, the mining man, who was
yesterday seen at the Palace.
The officers of the Philadelphia were the
guests of the road and were taken up in a
special train. The train climbed from sea
level to the enormous height alluded to in
going but 106 miles. There were alway,
two or three tracks in sight on different
levels, and in one place five were observ-
able.

hiring a State Senator as Attorney
Does Not Secure Delay.
Judge Seawell has decided that liti-
CANT has no right to demand postpone
ment OF trial until his attorney comes
back from his work as member of the
Legislature at Sacramento.
In the case of Ames against Frost in the
court of Justice of the Peace Carroll the
defendant objected to going to trial on
the ground that his attorney is Senator
Eugene f. Bert, who is not able to be
present in this City because he is serving
the State in the Legislature, and cannot
get back until after that body adjourns.
Justice Carroll was disposed to grant
the delay, but Judge Seawell was appealed
to, and he said this was not legal ground
for continuance; so the defendant must
speak for himself or get another attorney
and let the trial 60 on.

Excellent Concert Given at
the California
Theater.
The Young Vocalist Sings 0per-
attic Arias and Simp
Songs.
Herr Weiss, a New 'Cellist, Makes a
Good Impression-Louis Crepaux
Applauied.

Mile. Trebelli's second concert, which
took place yesterday Afternoon at the Cal
ifornia Theater, was as great an artistic
treat to lovers OF singing as her Tuesday
nights recital. The more one hears this
remarkable young singer the more one
learns to appreciate the exquisite natural
qualities of her voice and the finish of her
art. Mile. Trebelli vas assisted yesterday
afternoon by Mons. Louis Crepaux, basso,
and by Herr Arthur Weiss, a violoncellist
recently arrived from Europe, who made
q very favorable impression.
AS rule when a concert singer, pur ct
simple, essays an operate aria. the result
is at best a cold, mechanical rendering,
devoid of any dramatic Interpretation.
This is by no means the case with Antoin-
ette Trebelli, however. She sang the
weIl-known "Ah, forse lui," from LA
Traviata," with all the operate express
sion of prima donna who is thoroughly
at home in the role of Violetta. The same
is also true of her rendering of "Alleluia, T"
the Infanta's aria from lie Cid." Her
singing was so dramatic that one almost
saw the stage and the Infanta distributing
aims outside the cathedral on Easter
morning. No doubt her power of dramatic
Interpretation is largely owing to her hav-
ing lived in an atmosphere of operatic art
from child hood
While she possesses this dramatic gift
of the prima donna, Mile. Trebelli has
been spared the wear and tear that opera
involves on the voice, and as a coDse-
ouence her rioh sweet organ has the fresh
ness, purity and coloratura that are rarely
heard nowadays in conjunction with dra-
matte singing. The audience received
both her operate arias with warm ap-
plause. As an encore TO the scene and
aria from the "Traviata' Trebelll sang
"Une Mutt d. Espagne," by Massanet.
In the horid vocal EN- broideries of the
''Vulanelle," by Eva DELI Aqua, TrebelH
showed her remarkable vocal agility, and
in this song her perfect intonation was
made more noticeable by the long pieces
OF horatura which she had to sing without
accompaniment. The tours de force in
this song brought clamorous demand
