THE ANDREWS OPERA COMPANY.

lttls RNlllNf. " = vi ERA NtJMI y
The Andrews Opera company concluded
their engagement at the Howard Opcra
House Saturday, singing The Mikado" in
the afternoon to very small house and
"Giruftc- Girofa" in the evening to II fair
sized audience. The evening performance
vas the best one OF the three but IL was
not an unqualified success because there
was no orchestral accompaniment, the in
strumental score being entrusted, as on
Friday evening, to u piano and one Vio-
lin. Tho opera house orchestra was pres
cnt, but played only between the acts.
In the afternoon three members Of the or
CheStra assisted the pianist and violin
list belonging to the company. The solo
lists with the exception of one or two Of
the comedians, who should never be al
lowed to try to sing, were very satisfac-
tory, Mr., Walters and Miss French being
entirely SO. while the excellent chorus left
nothing to be desired in that respect.
The managers of the Andrews Opera
company have the singers and comedians
with which TO present their list of operas
in an entirely satisfactory manner: but
they are making II mistake in trying to
get along without an orchestra and with
out particle OF appropriate scenery.

A Plea for Fireworks.

Eds. Record rd-Union': The outlook
is that the coming Fourth of July Will
surpass In grandeur and patriotic spirit
anything ever held in this city. But
there is one feature in connection with
the coming celebration that surpasses
in point of attractiveness all others,
and that is a good evening display of
fireworks. If, as the Executive Com
mittee fears, the funds will not warrant
the carrying out of this portion of the
programme, one of the best features Of
the celebration will be spoiled
1t has been urged for years past that
this city should set aside from its
annual tax levy a suitable amount for
the proper celebration of this great day.
Why should a few merchants and busi-
ness men be bled to death every year
for this and other purposes, when, by
a general tax, an ample amount could
be raised which would not be felt by
the humblest of our citizens?
To show the injustice of the present
system, we will take for instance, the
hundreds of non-residents who have
large and valuable rental properties
here They are never called on for a
cent to defray the expense of occasions
like this while, on the other hand, the
merchants who do business here have
to stand their own share, as we'll as
that of absentees. BY a general tax
the absent ones would have to come up
like little men and pay their portion,
and they would do it, too, without a
murmur.
But we should not look to the past
the present is what we have to deal
with. We want good, rousing display
of fireworks this year above all others,
to show the State that Sacramento II

Notice to Beer Consumers.

Consumers and distributors Of beer
are reminded that the additional price
OF 81 barrel is not imposed by the
brewers for their own benefit, but rep
resents exactly the amount of tax levied
by the National Government upon each
barrel of beer and is part of the special
taxation for defraying the expenses of
the Spanish American war. So far as
my Gilt Edge steam beer is concerned.
l could continue to furnish it at the old
price byslightly cheapening the quality.
l have always taken pride in maintain
ing its standard of excellence and pur-
lty and in proclaiming it "The Best
Beer in the World 1 am unwilling
now to cheaper it by using inferior in
gradients or by employing less skilled
and lower priced labor, especially as
there is a heavy demand for my beer
at good prices as at present made. in

And when the band did play Dixie"
the Tennesseeans (and we-uns as welD
cheered Justify and long, but for a mo-
ment when the notes of Yankee
Doodle" snapped and cracked like OK
goads and broken bottles. the yell that
went up was all together and
with will. Nearly an hour passed be-
fore the wants of the First Battalion
were supplied, and then the train rolled
out with the boys from the South still
cheering.
The second trainload arrived here at
4:oO o'clock, and they, too, were cared
for by the Red Cross Society, as were
those who came after them.
On the first train was a twelve-year-
old boy who. it is understood. ran away
from his home in Nashville, and was
not found until the regiment had been
day on the road. The officers took
care of the little fellow, fitted him out
with a uniform and looked upon him
as their mascot.
In the evening when the Red Cross
ladies, who had been at the post of
duty most of the day, We're aweary, Mr..
and Mrs. VIM. Gropp distributed among
them enough ice cream to satisfy their
appetites in that direction, and there
was goodly quantity left over.
The third trainload of troops arrived
at 6:30 o'clock, and they, too, were
cared for. They were from the interior
counties and We're quite different, as a
rule, from the companies from Nash
vile. They were far quieter and less
demonstrative, and appeared to have
much of the Southern country gentle
man" mixed in their makeup that was
lacking from the men from the capi-
tai of the State.
The fourth and last train did not ar
rive until $50 O'Clock, but the Red
Cross Society people stuck to their
posts and fed the weary volunteers.
The ladies were indefatigable in their
efforts to give the boys from the Sunny
South a genuine California welcome
and they came near exceeding any
former effort in the same line.
