Changes in Officers in Local
Society.
The first Friday morning in the
month will usually show a number of
waiting carriages in the yard of Queen
Emma hall, and the interested passer-
by may know by them that a monthly
meeting OF the Board of Supervisors is
in progress in the Froebel room up
stairs. Yesterday morning the num-
Der of carriages indicated a meeting.
and judging by the time they were to
be seen, the meeting must have been
longer than usual. And so it was.
Mrs. Hyde, the president, was in
charge, and after the reports of secre-
tary, financial secretary and treasurer,
the chairman of the visiting commit
tees reported the status of the various
kindergartens.
A few changes were made in the per-
sonnet of the committees. Mrs. Twins

ma committee, for which Mrs. A B. In
gals was recommended, Miss Castles

member on the Japanese committee.

that committee from the publication
committee, and her successor on that
committee will be appointed later
Hereafter the financial burden will
not be so heavy for any one person, as
a committee of ways and means was
appointed, Mrs. S. NJ. Damon, Mrs. F.
r. Day and Miss Helen r. Lewis, to
assist Mrs Coleman in raising funds.
In the Hawaiian kindergarten Miss
Minnie Morris has presided for a year
with great credit, and it was hoped
that she would hold the position long
er. Her resignation was read yester-
day, however, and accepted with re-
greet Miss Morris returns to her home
in Monmouth, Ohio, and the associa-
ton loses an able worker. No one has
yet been appointed to succeed her.
The success of the kindergartens
and training school the past year has
been greatly due to Miss Lawrence,
trainer and supervisor, and it was the
unanimous wish of the meeting that
she be re-engaged indefinitely. When
the motion was put Mrs. Hyde read
from a private letter a glowing tribute
paid to her by Colonel Parker of Chi
cago, who is sorry that he allowed
Cook County Normal School to lose

renee. Needless to say, her unanimous
reelection is unmistakable proof of the
regard in which she is held by the as
ISOLATION.
For two years past one of the most
interested officers has been a vice-pres-
ident, Mrs. T. r. Walker, who is soon
to depart for a two years sojourn in
England. Her resignation was accept
ed willingly, and with recognition of
her efforts in the kindergartenS, but
only in the hope that upon her return
she would renew her connection with
the Board of Supervisors.
1t is just possible that a Japanese
kindergartener may come from Japan,
to have charge of her own little coun-
trymen and their sisters.
June 18th is the date for the gradual
ing exercises of the Glass of '97 Of the
Training School, Miss Morris and Miss
Carrie Bray being the only graduates.

1t portrays in a pleasant way some of the
phases OF life IN the interesting bluegrass
region OF Kentucky. The scenery is good
and the mechanical effects are we'll man

life, horserace and death struggle fur

enjoyable.

methods of good old melodrama, and it is
sometimes useless to criticize these
methods.

and magician, and it is vouched for t! at
his work is quite different from anything
that has been seen in San Francisco.
Harry Edison is assisted in a

laughable turn. From the Conservatory

to be a singer of great reputation. The
great Haverstraw tunnel scene will be

Following upon the success OF LA
Boheme," the local music-iovers are an
tlcipating something exceptionally good
in Puccinis version Of "Manon Lescaut.
The music, bar the intermezzo, which
was played by Vallini at last Sundays
concert, is unknown here. The iiDretto
is supposed TO follow the main in
cidents of the story of "Manon
Lescaut." The first act discloses
the scene where Geronte de Ravoir kid
mars Manon and carries her oil In
the coach of her lover. The second shows
Manon in all her vanity, capriciousness
and am bition adornlng the apartments or
Geronte; the finding of her by her lover,
Des Grieux, and the discovery OF them by
the iniuriated Geronte. The third act
shows the port OF Havre. where meet Des
Grieux and Manon and her brother, after
she has been discarded by Geronte and
Des Grieux has escaped from the Paris
prison. the fourth and last act is in the
American territory of New Orleans, where
Manon and her lover die.
Those who heard Puccinis "Manon
LIE caut" when Gustav Hinrchs brought
it out several years ago in Philadelphia
say that the music follows Abbot Pre-
vost's book with the same fidelity OF color
that marks B oheme."
''Manon" wi IL attract a big Monday
night audienc e. and THE Force OF Des-
tiny" althoug an old work, should be of
interest to opera-goers, ii for no other
reason e. an that it has never been given
before in San Francisco.
There is a rumor on the Rialto to the
effect that th e Italian company will play

Alcazar.

commencing tomorrow night the stock
company at the AIcaZar will play the
farcical comedy "Incog." written by Mrs.
Pacheco, the wife of Ex-Governor Pacheco.
The comedy was quite a success when
Charles Dickinson played it some years ago
at the Bush-street Theater. it also en-
ioyed the distinction OF running a hundred
nights in London. The story is one of
humorous complication. Tom Stanhope,
the son Of General Stanhope, becomes
enamored of Kate Armitape, the hired
companion OF sabella Howard the gen.
erals ware. The father has arranged it
carefully with himself that Tom shall
marry Isabella, and when young Ned
Moreland asks for Isabeila's hand he is
told that it has been reserved for Tom.
Ned tells the general of Toms infatua-
ton for the companion, and the old
gentleman raises NICE rumpuS. He dis
charges poor Kate and threatens to cut
Tom off with the proverbial 25 cents. In
the meantime Tom finds the photograph
of the betrothed of Miss Sumner, who
figures largely in the play, and proceeds
to make up in imitation of it. In this
guise he goes again to his parent, asks for
the hand OF Kate, which is given him
post haste. Then comes the complica-
tons of misidentity, which finally land
Tom and two other characters in an
ylum for the insane. Explanations fol-
low, the general admits that it is one on
him ana everything ends happily.
In the cast are: MessTs. Huntington,
Shaw, Clay ton, Arper and Carleton, Mrs.
Bates ana the Misses Foster, Crosby and
Kingsley. The Alcazar will have a matt
nee performance on thanksgiving day.

1 heard O new argument against the litho-

of com bination house. He proclaimed his
firm belief in the theory that the holders of
lithograph passes drive good people from the

"and blame them for the fact that openings at
my house are never as well attended other

My patrons know 1t Many OF them simply
won't come on that evening. Why, I've had
tried-and-true attractions open to only $3.50,
and yet play to $4,000 on the week. Now,
how can you explain that except upon the
theory that the paying public doesn't want to
