Excelsior IT," a Frost,
but the Chill Concerns

Rumors That the Company
Would Disband Denied by
Everybody.
The Piece Is Owned by Berry AMI
How &C rptain Starr Is the
Real Back.r.

The extravaganza Excelsior Jr." will
go out tonight, after two weeks en-
gagement at the Colum bia. Financially
the piece has not been success, notwith-
standing the wealth of scenery, gorgeous
costumes and the presence of Miss Mar
tinot and Mr.. Cawthorn in the list OF
stars.
There were stories on the street yester-
day that the company had gone to pieces
owing to sudden attack of chills on an
angel. who, it was said, was backing Miss
Martinez in the enterprise. These re-
ports did Miss Martinez an injustice.
Excelsior Jr." has an angel all good
enough in the person of Captain P. r.
Starr OF Nicksburg, Miss, at present COM
handing the United States steamship
Meers, but 1t happens that Miss Martinez
is sim ply salagied player.
1T is simply scandalous that any body
should connect my name with that OF
Captain Starr" said Miss Martinot, "I
had concluded my engagement with the
'Gay Parisians" when I was offered posi-
ton by Mr.. Berry, which [ accepted, as I
would with any other company.
There is no angel behind me and I
need none. If the box receipts show poor
appreciation of the piece | have heard
nothing of it. / don't believe the COM
pany is going to disband-in fact, never
heard any of the people talking of such a
thing
Captain Starr advanced the money to
Matt L. Berry and Junius Howe, whose
names appear as proprietors of the piece.
Miss Martinez joined the company IN
New Orleans on its way West, and de-
cares she never saw Captain Starr but
once in her life.
In all there are some forty people in the
company, and these are unanimous in de-
clarng that they will stay with the ship,
although sailing is rather slow Just at
present. Manager Berry managed TO ac-
cemplish wonders with the means at his
disposal last night. Salaries were paid in
proportion to the funds in the treasury,
with the promise that arrears would be
fort booming within few days.
The company is billed in Los Angeles
for Tuesday night, but 1t may be that the
frosty weather experienced here may re-
sultin through jump to Kansas City.
A number of chorus girls, who were en-
gagged only for the season here. will be
dropped this evening. From there the
company will go to Chicago for four
weeks engagement. Junius Howe left
for that city last Wednesday.

BUYING HOME UTENSILS.

He Knew How to Do 1t on Business
Principles.
"Now, let me talk to that agent" said
the owner of a fine residence just oil
Woodward avenue to his vile, relates the
Detroit Free Press. THE trouble with
you women is that you're too easily per-
suaded. I'll use the fellow well, for he's
striving TO make living, but III get rid
of him in short order"
The others left to give the head of the
household C ear deck, and soon he was
list ening to the smoothly flowing talk of
the agent. Here were pans that retained ali
the juices of the meat or fowl while baking
it. This sadiron put polish on starched
liuen and cut off the expense OF a laundry.
Here was glue That would make broken
furniture stronger than the original wood.
This preparation would make old carpets
like new and reduce the work and annoy
ance of house-cleaning to minimum.
The latest thing in coffee-pots insured
just the desired strength and cleared the
brown fluid without the aid of any foreign
substance. There were these ana several
other articles that i'm pressed the house,
holder as being essential to domestic COM
fort at its BEST and he wondered why they
had not been provided long ago.
When tie oily agent departed he left
his patron surrounded by wares that he
had bought at high price He at once
called in the family, and with something
of the enthusiasm OF the agent told what
each thing was for, how much better it
was than anything heretofore used and
how fortunate it was for him to have been
at home to make these discrimin atlng Sc
lections.
His sails did not collapse till his wife
informed him that she was supplied with
everything he had bought, when he went
into something that closely resemb led a
fit.
