Rumor was busy last night in regard to a forthcoming marriage between the handsome, dashing vocalist, Miss Lizzie Raymond, and MT Montgomery of Mont gomery & Stone, the black face team. Miss Raymond, who closes an engage ment in this city tomorrow evening, was asked about her marriage, and said:
 'I am not married to MT. Montgom- cry
 Do you intend to marry him?"
 ."I certainly do, as l am engaged to him. was the reply. T shall soon go East to marry him. He opens in St. Louis Sunday evening. I told him when he left here not to worry, as I would surely keep my word, notwithstanding the persistent offer of marriage from b wealthy Boston stock broker, who I fino is rated way up in c by Bradstreet know that with Montgomery the course of true love will run smooth, and hence it is all off with the broker"

ASSAULTED BY THE MAN
 SHE LOVED Etta Murray, a Young w oman, Danger
 Ously III. Attacked by Mike Valve and Seriously h.
 jured. Her Assailant, Fearing Arrest, Quietly Leaves the
 City.
THE POLICE ARE NOTIFIED
Threatened to XIII Her If She Tolc Her Parents of His
 Crime.

Etta Murray, an attractive young woman, Is lying dangerous i'll at her mothers home, GOA Third street. Last Tuesday night. she claims, she was as- saulted by Mike Valve, 8 young man with whom she had kept company.
 According to her story Valve entered her home during the temporary ab- sence of her mother and assaulted her. She screamed for help, but her alleged assailant placed his hand over her mouth and threatened to kill her if she continued to make an outcry. After he had accomplished his design he left the house after threatening to return and make her subject for the Coroner if she informed her mother
 When the latter returned several hours later she found her daughter ly- ing on the floor in a semi-conscious condition. She at once sent for a doc tor, who after considerable trouble suc- ceeded in reviving the injured girl. Af- ter regaining consciousness she told her mother what had transpired.
 Mrs. Murray lost no time in notifying the police, and two detectives were sent to make an investigation. They ob- tained the story of the girl, and at OliCS SldIleU out to lIIlQ Ter dlieSSl dS- sailant. They visited his residence on Broadway but were unable to find him. An examination of his room disclosed that he had taken his clothes.
 Last night the detectives learned that Valve. evidently fearing arrest, had left the city. He was traced to Stockton. and Sheriff Cunningham of that place was notified by telegraph to arrest him. Cunningham. after making an investi- gation. telegraphed back to Chief Lees that Valve had left that city
 A description of him has been sent to the various Sheriffs throughout the country and every effort will be made to arrest him.
 Late last night 1t was reported that the girl was in a dying condition and could not possibly recover. Her mother is heartbroken over the condition of the unfortunate girl and is determined to prosecute Valve to the bitter end in case he is arrested. She was aware that he was in the habit of calling on her daughter. but thinking that he intend ed to make her his wife she offered no objection. He evidently knew that Mrs. Murray was absent when he en- tered her house Tuesday night. After gaining an entrance. 1t is. claimed. he struck his unsuspecting victim. felling her to the floor. before accomplishing his base design.
 The police are determined to make Valve suffer for his heinous crime and will do all in their power to apprehend

For Alaska's Trade.

Since the affairs of the old Alaska Trade Committee have been in the hands of the State Board of Trade, Manager J. A. Filcher has had several lively men in the field soliciting subscriptions for carrying on the work of advertising the fact that this city is the best on the coast for out fitting for the gold fields of the north. His men have met with very good sue cess thus enabling MT. Filcher to send to all parts of the country information such as prospective Klondikers want
 For time the canvassers were not as successful as they are now. The reason was that all whom they approached stated that they would not give a cent unless a certain storekeeper near the city front also contributed to the work. They held that he was getting the cream of the trade and still not paying a cent.

ROSTER STAYED AWAY.
An Evenings Sport Spoiled by the Mission Pugilist Not Appearing
 to EjUht Lynch

About five hundred disappointed sports filled the gymnasium of the Excelsior Athletic Club last night. watching two wild-eyed colored "dubs" wave their hands at each other until one fell to the floor in a hypnotized condition.
 The event that crowded the clubroom was an eight-round go between Tom Lynch of the Excelsors and Gus Roster of the Manhattans. At the last moment Roster "crawfished," as one sport put it, and the go was called off. To satisfy the gore-loving followers of the squared circle the management substituted Henry Lewis and young Peter Jackson, two dusky "dubs.' As was expected, Lewis went to the floor to save beating, while the crowd wondered why he stayed that length of time. Jackson was power full fellow, with as much knowledge of boxing as a Spaniard has of fighting. Lewis, on the other hand. had some knowledge of the game, but is totally devoid of courage. With two such men in the ring the crowd simply lay back and yaWned. waiting for the bout to be over. It came in the fourth round and no one felt sorry.
 The events that preceded the farce were interesting and partly made up TOT the rank go. Deacon" Jones and Clown Wiley created merriment at the start by their mode of sparring. Dev1ne ana MO Deavttt also boxed three Imaginable rounds, while Jimmy Lawler and Jimmy Rielly, Craig and Lynch, O'Brien and Kane boxed interesting rounds. Will Sul-- livan contortioned and Mir Casey warbled the Wabash so realistically that the spectators nearly drowned him with ap- plause. He then gave pathetic reel tation about an Indian who deserted his love in the far West. His gestures were left lead for the stomach with right hand in pocket: sometimes changing to a right cross for variety. Casey was so enraptured with his own voice that he forgot his lines, and had to retire amid tumultous applause Lynch and Ken nedy then boxed four lively rounds.
 In announcing the absence or Roster President Kennedy charged Alec Greg gains with trying to put his club on the bum because they were getting pros porous He defied the referee in the SharkeyJeffries bout and all his push to injure the Excelsiors, and then an nounced another bout, which will take place at the clubrooms in a few weeks

 Next Saturday a new supply Of money will be added to the fund of the assocla- tion The Baldwin Theater will give matinee and the total proceeds will go 10 help build the home for the suffering widows and orphans. The offer or the management of the theater is generous one Not one cent of the expense Of pro- ducing the entertainment, which IS not small, will have to be borne by the Masons, and in the evening after the spectators have left the theater the re- ceipts will be handed over to the commit tee that is to see to the building or the home The Masons expect to reanze large sum of money from this source, ana this added to the sum taken in at the fete will without doubt be sufhclenI to fulfill their object.

 The complaining witness Is A. $. Paree, a civil engineer. Some time ago Farce sued Gorter for preparing the plans of the water tower and was awarded $250 by jury in Judge Hunts court.

O ALIFORNIA COMMANDERY en-
 +er+atned the guests at the Masonic
 ,Festival last night, and right roy
 ally it entertained. It was decided loue nrior to the opening of the festival +hat California Commandery must take ;+ ,,no, itself to furnish the entertainment for at least one night, and Mrs. J. F. Lo- gan Mrs. Gus Dorn and Mrs. Alfred Bat kin. the executive committee of the com mandery. promptly responded ana LOOK the matter in hand. The features or tne o,,o-iny,s entertainment were exhibition drills bv the drilll corps of California Conouandery No 1, Knights Templar, R. p Hurlbut commanding, and the Ladies California Drill Corps.
 The ladies' corps was beautifully dis ciplfned and prettily uniformed Blue suits chevroned with white and having gaiters to match completed the uniform. Shortly after o'clock, to the tune or ..The Festival March" composed by U. w Bennett. leader of the fete band, the corps made its appearance. With the precision of machinery the ladies marched. Each carried a silken nag ln place of a saber or more formidable ln- plement of war, and at each command wave of red. white and blue, unbroken by any strangling hand, moved gayly through the calcium-light tinted air. The drill was not long. but it proved the pro- ficiency of the participants and their superiority over the drill corps Of the Knights Templar. The various move ments of the Knights in drill was little less than perfect, but with the saber they did not equal the ladies with their flags. The drill of the rival corps concluded, the members and friends of California Coumandery were entertained at the handsomely decorated booth of that com mandery.
 A multitude that crowded the big hall from floor to gallery was present last evening to witness the drilling and enjoy the various features of the programme Many who went to the festival to hear General W. H. L. Barnes speak however left disappointed, as the orator did not respond to the call of his name. Why General Barnes failed to make his ap- pearance was not known by the manage ment, and 1t regretted, as did many others, his absence. The music was se- lect and the march composed for Cali fornia Commandery night by MT. Ben nett called for considerable comment The selection Is without doubt striking and will live when the festival exists only as a memory.
 Tonight will be the biggest night of the festival. Besides the fact that it will see the close of a successful 'fete inaug- urated in the cause of charity-the most laudable cause in christendom-it will be ''raffie night" Thousands of valuable articles, everything from piano down to pincushion. will pass from the festi- val into now unknown hands.
