ADJUSTMENTS. A

hermann, the magic worker, with a
oelclously fascinating repertoire of IL
luslons and feats of necromancy, will
appear tonight at the Metropolitan
Theater. This is the same company
that belonged to the late Hermann, the
Great" his graceful and accomplished
widow, Adelaide Hermann, having
kept it together, maintaining the high
standard of entertainment furnished by
him. The gap caused by his death has
been filled by his nephew, Leon Her
mann, who was chosen some years ago
as his successor in event of his death
The new Hermann has succeeded be-
yond all exDectation in taking his
uncle's place as magician. The critics
OF the large cities where he has ap-
peared this season have been unanimous
III pronouncing him one of the greatest
OF necromancers. His Illusions are new,
startling and have a flavor of originality
about them that is unique. He has a
new trick or illusion known as the
'clock trick that is one of the most
niystefying feats ever performed. In
paiming he is universally admitted to
be even superior to Hermann. the
Great" while his tricks with cards are
wonderful. Another charming feature
of the Hermanns' entertainment is the
part taken by Adelaide Hermann. This
plucky woman who has done so much to
perpetuate the magic name of Hermann
will aoDear in the spectacular dances
that have won her popularity every
where. These dances are dazzling and
| bewildefing. A host of colored lights
are used. and all colors of the rainbow
range themselves upon her voluminous
and ever moving draDeries. The house
| and stage are entirely dark, and there
fore every fold of the draperies has it's
tint and scheme of color intensified by
reason of the fact that her graceful
| figure is all that can be seen in the house
In one of the dances, the fire dance,
Nine. Hermann actually seems to be the
| living center of a column Of fame and
smoke. The. success of the Herlnanns
in San Francisco recently was pro-
nounced. Not a few Of the critics there
placed Leon on level, and some above
his famous uncle as a general performer,
While all conceded that in palming he
is the most adept worker ever upon this
coast

RECEPTION TO A VETERAN.
GRAND ARMY PEOPLE HONOR
THEIR COMMANDER.
The Local Posts and Auxiliary
Bodies Entertain General N.
p. Chipman.

General N. P. Chapman, Department
Commander of the Grand Army or the
Republic in California and Nevada
met with the veterans of sacramento
at their regular meeting at F'orestefS
Hall last evening. and after the regular
business was transacted, the doors were
thrown open and the Ladies of the
Grand Army and of the Sumner and
Fair Oaks Relief Corps were usnered
in and gave the General a reception ne
will remember for many days.
After quiet had settled down COM
mandar A A. Dassonville called Tor at
tention, and addressing the ladies IN
formed them that General Chlpman
wished to take them into his confidence
and tell them some Of his thoughts and
experiences.
General Chipman greeted the ladies,
and said he had been attempting to re-
call war time days, with scant success.
1t was difficult, he said, to realize that
In 1S61-65. a million young men march
ed to the front TO uphold the nation.
The women of the country, General
Chipman said, were one of the great
est factors in the outpouring of the
nation in the defense of liberty, and
but for their noble and heroic support
he did not believe the boys in blue
could have won. The self-denial OF
those women was more patriotic, and
more deserving of praise than the ac-
tion of those who marched to the front
because In those days it took more
courage to stay at home than to GO
to the war.
But If the women had been instru-
mental in upholding the flag in the
dark days of the war, General Chapman
said, there is work for them to per
form still. The social problems of to-
day. he said, are vastly different from
what they We're thirty years ago. The
question of immigration is assuming
montsrous proportions, and is to-day
the NEST weighty of any before the
National Congress. He could name, he
said, ore of the United States, So per
cent OF the population of which is OF
foreign birth. He had, he said. nc
fault to find with the descendants OF
foreigners who have become Ameri-
caniZed. but the time will soon come
when the people will be called on to
say whether the gates shall be closed
and for him, he is ready to say, 'Close
them"
Mrs. G. II. Herr, Past President OF
the Laeies of the Grand Army, respond
ed to the Generals remarks in her usu-
ally happy style, and after listening to
piano solo by Master Adams, every
body adjourned to the lower floor
where an elegant banquet was par
taken of. A number of toasts We're
given and responded to, and reminis
cences of war times filled the inter
walls. It was late before the old soldiers
and their ladies left the hail. and the
reception was over

GEORGE SHAW NOW IN JAIL.
HE DISPOSED OF A QUANTITY
OF STOLEN CANVAS.
How the Officers Nailed Him-He
Is Suspected Of Various
Robberies.

About six weeks ago a youth named
George Shaw, whose residence was a
tent on the Yolo side Of the river, at
tempted to sell two bolts of canvas TO
the proprietor of a secondhand store
on Second street. He was promptly
! arrested by Officers Ash and Douglas,
but as they We're unable to find an
owner for the goods he was not pros
ecuted
The same evening Of Shaw's arrest,
and about an hour and a half subse-
quent to it, Ferauts saloon at Second
and o streets was robbed by two men,
while third, partner of Shaw's. kept
watch. They crossed the river IN
Shaw's boat and made their escape, but
were subsequently arrested by Consta-
bic Fitzpatrick of Suisun.
The officers We're not long in finding
that Shaw knew a great deal concern
ing the robbers. and he was witness
against them at their preliminary ex-
| animation, and gave some damaging
| testimony.
Shaw was released a few days after
| his arrest, and shortly afterward again
showed up with the canvas, 1S5 yards,
and sold the same to a Mr. Litzenstein,
who conducts a second hand store on
K street. The officers had posted the
second hand man and requested him
to purchase the goods if offered
To Mr.. Litzenstein, Shaw said that
the canvas was crooked" and that
he could turn lots Of such stuff his
way.
officers Douglas and Ash apprised
the business houses and transportation
companies that the canvas had been
sold. but until few days ago no own
er appeared. Then the San Joaquin
