FORGERY ALLEGED. Warrant Out for the Arrest of F. T. Duncan, a Druggist.

A warrant was issued by Judge Joach- imsen yesterday for the arrest of F. T. Duncan, druggist in the Press Club build ing, on a charge of forgery. The com blaming witness is E. c. Heller, a clerk in Raphaels store.
 Duncan prior to July g, had a drug store at 359 Deyisadero street That day he removed to the Press Club building While in business on Devisadero street he became in arrears to the Bell Tele- phone Company and was put on their '.black list,' which meant that he could not get telephone again.
 After removing to the Press Club build ing he went to the office of the telephone company and, it is alleged, represented that he was E. c. Heller and made a contract for a telephone in his store He paid up for a month or two and fell into arrears again. The telephone company found that Heller was employed at Ra- phael's, and when seen he denied all knowledge of the contract and also de- nied that he gave Duncan authority to sign his name to. the contract. Hence the warrant for Duncan's arrest for forging HellerS name.

THE SIXTH ANNUAL BENEFIT
POTPOURRI OF THEATRICAL
 ADJUSTMENTS.
The Show Was of an Exceptional Character, and Despite Its Length Was Run Off
 Smoothly.

| The annual entertainment of the San | Francisco Press Club packed the Colum- | bia Theater yesterday afternoon with an
 audience of the typical matinee genus all silent and absorbed appreciation and but little applause. The entertainment furnished was potpouri in which noth- | ing theatrical but deep, breathless trag- l edy was omitted.
 George Lask whose recent transconti- mental adventure for Cyrano's sake has | told on his weight, held the rudder lines, | and he did his best to run off a pro- gramme that was long enough for a con- | tinuous performance. By some gigantic | mental process he succeeded in material l zing the larger part of the bill. The | relict he attached to the index expur- | gatorius when the clock struck 5, MT. | Lasks dinner hour.
 | The entertainment was ushered in by an overture by Rosner's Hungarian or | chestra. This was succeeded by Miss | Louise Veiller's Keeping Up Appear ances," in which the AlcaZar company has l won much success. Then came vaude-
 vile, John Morrisey's contingent from | the Orpheum, which was most cordially received. The audience clamored for en-
 cores and the trouble began to boil and surrendered to the omnipotent star. | Straight down the line of vaudeville the | show went without hitch until the fe- l male barytone, Miss Emma Carus. was
 reached. Just then it was discovered that | Miss Carus had left her music and her | hat pins at home. both of which mes | senger boy brought into court, and the show continued.
 | In order to please the lovers of the | fadum modernum, "Cyrano de Bergerac" | was given a chance. Those who had not | seen the performance at the Tiyoli and who expected to see a CyraneSe de Bric-
 abrac were again disappointed. The third l act, the most beautiful of Rostand's wild | fire comedy, was the one to which the Ti- | voli Company limited itself. and it was 1 the most artistic number on the pro- | gramme. Miss Lichter's singing of the serenaie, "To Roxane,' was applauded with more than the matinee abandon. After the Tivoli Company had had it's brief hour on the stage the vaudeville re- serve was called into action. The Gay est Manhattan" stars took the front this time and they worked as amusement servers until the striking of the stage clock warned the manager that dinner time was upon him, so the rest of the card was scratched.
 The benefit to the club from the per- formance will exceed that of former years. Every seat in the house was sold and the advertisements in the souvenir nrogramme. which is the handsomest vet produced, netted large returns.
 The programme was as follows: Overture (Benoist), For Love and Glory Rosner's Hungarian Orchestra, E. M. Rosner director The Alcazar Theater Company in
