THE COMING RELAY"
C. C. w. Preparations-Cap Smith
Sick and Lieutenants in Charge.


CAPTAIN Smith of the Capital City
Wheelmen, has been taken seriously i'll,
probably with appendicitis The
Acting President has therefore, deS-
ignated Lieutenants Payen and Milne
to take charge of the duties of Cap
tain Smiths office and handle the men
entered for the try out" in prepara-
ton for the hundred mile relay race
with Stockton next month, it being the
third, and it is to be hoped final con-
test between Sacramento and Stockton
for the beautiful cup now held by the
Capital City Wheelmen, and which the
club has twice won.
The sickness of Captain Smith is
particularly unfortunate at this juno
ture, when all the men, some thirty in
number. are in active training for the
coming event, as the Captain has full
charge and responsibility for the make
up of the teams for the contest, and for
the condition of the men to take part.
Happily, however, in Messrs. Paycn
and Milne. the club has two thoroughly
experienced officers, accustomed to
handling men and to putting up teams
and training them to the highest state
of fitness.
The sickness of both President Goethe
and Captain Smith, and the removal
from the city of Readman, Young and
Hubert, three swift riders, are seri-
ously felt by the club just now, but the
membership rallies about the tempor-
ary officers splendidly, and there is no
relaxation of club spirit The deter
mination is to win and prove to Stock
ton once and for all that it is mot in

YOUNG MAN FROM VISALIA.
A FOOL AND HIS MONEY WERE
SOON PARTED.
He Imbibed Freely and Then Thre "
Dice in q Lower K-Street
Saloon.

A young man from Visalia, who gave
the name of John McGinnis. but whose
real name is said to be Duden, ana
who arrived here on Wednesday, on
his way TO Omaha. was taken in as a
drunk in the afternoon by Special OIL
Ger Katzenstein, nothing being known
of any unusual occurrence, he being too
drunk to talk
Yesterday morning, however, he, nav
ing sobered up. inquired for a check
for $50 which he had brought to the
city with him, and which was missing.
He then told his story, saying that
when he arrived here he dropped into
John Norton's saloon, between Second
and Third. on K street, and there met
George Green. They became friendly,
and as he was drinking considerably
and treating. he displayed the check,
and the police say that Green went
with him to get the check cashed at
D. O. Mills & Co.'S bank, Duden hav-
ing been identified by a business man.
d. O. Mills & Co.'S bank, but did not
succeed, and that afterward it was
cashed at the California State Bank,
Duden having been identified by a
business man.
Duden claims that he was enticed into
a dice game for high stakes when they
returned to Norton's and in a short
time his $3.50 and $23 that he had be
sides, had passed out of his possession
into the pockets Of two other parties.
He said a third man steered him to
Uncle Ike's" pawnshop to pawn mis-
watch, for the purpose of replenishing
mis- pocketbook, but the proprietor re-
fused to advance anything on it.
AS he had a ticket for Omaha and
business that required his presence
there, he took the train for the East
yesterday. but said that he would be
back in about three weeks to swear out
a warrant for the arrest Of the men
who, ne claimed, had f1eeced him. The
proprietor of the saloon called on Chief
Dwyer yesterday and claimed that
Duden entered the saloon and chal-
lenged anybody there to throw dice at
$50 a throw and that he was taken up
and lost his money.
Green also called on the Chief OF
Police last night and stated that the
young man wanted to throw dice for
high stakes and that he lost his money
fairly.

ADJUSTMENTS.

At the Metropolitan Theater this
evening Marie Wainwright and a ca
pable company in the new domestic
drama, Shall We Forgive Her?' 1t
is represented as a play of wholesome
character, of absorbing interest and
that it is picturesquely staged and is
acted with the skill of fine art, Mr..
Lift, the well-known manager, pur-
chased the play after witnessing its
successful production at the Adelphi
Theater. London, when Julia Nelson
played the leading role Miss Vain
wright was in London at the time. and
Mr. Lift then offered her the leading
role, and a long engagement, and
though it was out of the line of char
acters she had been assuming, she ac-
ceptad, and at the first attempt scored
q signal success, which has continued
una bated since. The story, it is said,
is told in a simple, but strong manner,
concisely directly and without any
wearisone dialogue or slackening of in
terest. 1t all hinges upon the devotion
Of a woman to her lover, that leads
her TO follow him into the wilds of
Australia. She finds him very different
from the man who Won her heart in
his young manhood; cold, heartless and
vicious Her efforts to lead him to
better paths fail, and the love she held
for him being at last broken, She re-
turns to her home land, and seeks TO
reinstate herself. There the love of a
good man seeks her out, and she be-
comes his wife but with the secret of
her youth untold to him. The early
lover breaks in upon the new and
happy home and threatens to reveal her
past. and she bribes him with coin to
hold his peace. But a jealous woman
learns Of her past and exposes her, and
she IS driven out but with her love for
her husband unshaken. The outcome
is not altogether a surprise, but it is
very adroit finish to the story and IS
interviewer with some very striking
scenes and incidents. There is COM
edy aside to the play that is well sus-
tanned by capable comedians. Miss
wainwright is said to have succeeded
in the new line she has chosen fully
as we'll as she did in Shakespearean
characters, in which she achieved re-
markable success. The scenic effects
of the rlay are all new, and the scenes
from the brush of Homer Emens, New
York. The leading support of Miss
Wainwright is Edward MawSOn, j. j.
Farrell. Henry Napier, T. c. Hamil-
ton Harry Webster. F. z. Jameson
Madeline Lack and Gertrude Whitney
The New York press gives the drama
and he company commendation, and
the San Francisco press. at first in
clined 10 treat the play coldly, before
the close of the engagement came to
its support with acknowledgment of its
excellence.
Miss Price was the recipient of a
marked compliment at the Orpheum
last night. After responding to encores
and the curtain had descended, she was
long ana loudly called for again, a very
unusual thing in a vaudeville enter
tainment here. She is unquestionably
a finished artist in mimetic work, and,
besides. has a fine musical voice, and is
of very pleasing stage presence. Man

the English farmer attaches as much

but such crops render the mineral mat
