Orpheunn.

The Great Gautier and his trained horses promise to contribute the par ticular sensation to the new bill at the Orpheum, This act, it is said, is not the usual one of marching and drilling, but something swift, dangerous and al- together different from anything ever given outside of a circus tent.
 Among other new people are the Jacksons, who do a colored grotesque comedy sketch; the Nawns, who have been seen here before, in a new skit that gives Tow Nawn the part of an Irishman; and the Brothers Damn, who execute acrobatic feats that are said to be unprofane and thrilling. The biograph will have a new set of pie lures.
 The hold-overs include Al Wilson, the German monologuist, who is very popular with some of the audience; Dollie Cole, in new baritone songs, and Carletta, the great contortionist. AL mont and Dumont have returned for an extra week of musical specialties.

California.

Tonight is the last chance to see Marie Dressler at the California in "Courted into Court" Miss Dressler has scored a personal hit of magni- tude in San Francisco, and it is to be hoped she will call again every season. MT. Sparks and MT. Kruger will be re- membered, too, for their clever work, and let us hope that this brilliant band of farce-comedy players will follow the example of May Irwin and forswear the terrible McNally.
 Commencing Monday the California will be darkened for six nights. On Sunday night it will be double dark ened by the Black Paths Troubadours. who will then commence an engage ment of two weeks. The organization numbers fifty singers, dancers and vaudeville specialists, and is said to be the best assortment of Afro American ginger that ever went on the road. Ernest Hogan, the composer-co comedian, is of the company, and will give us the authentic ragtime coon song at first hand.

I believe that some of the most powerful agents we have for the general welfare of the community at large are the people in and out of the church who are seeking to elevate our amusements.

TiVoli.

The Tivoh promises an interesting production tomorrow night in "The Pearl of Pekin,'' a light operatic piece the music by Charles Lecocq, to which has been added several solos and en- sembles by Gustav Kerker; the book is from the French of Suru and Chivot Englfshed by Charles Alfred Byrne Both MT. Byrne and MT. Kerker are Americans. and the American popular ity of the piece is in no small measure due to their work.
 Edwin Stevens, whose vacation ends with to-night's performance of Brian Boru, has the elaborate part of the great Tyfoo, mandarin and the Gov ernor of Pekin; Miss Walcott Is his daughter, the Pearl of Pekin, and Miss Edith Hall is Finette, vivandiere and the wife of Petite Pierre, the French quartermaster, who goes in for inn Keeping in China. Finette Is really the heroine, although her name does not give the title to the piece
 The law of Tsing, which prevails in the plot, prescribes that if a stranger once sees the face of a Chinese girl he must forthwith marry her. or else be impaled. The Pearl of Pekin strays from home, and is seen by Petite Pierre, the French innkeeper. When Tyfoo hears of this he buries family pride, and insists that Petite Pierre shall marry his daughter. The wedding takes place, to the immense wrath of Finette, who arrives too late to stop the ceremony The unwilling bigamist tells her that as soon as he can he will escape and join her. This, how ever, does not satisfy the jealous Fi- nette, who plots with the Pearl of Pe- kin to take her place and personate her on the wedding night. The scheme is successfully carried out, and Petite Pierre and Finette (disguised as Chi nese lady) are conducted in state to the bridal chamber. But the trick played by Finette is discovered by Ty- foo the next day, and, always in obedi- ence to the laws of Tsing, Petite Pierre is brought up for trial. The council condemn him to be impaled, but be- fore the sentence can be executed Fi- nette attends to it that everybody gets full of champagne. Then the crew of the French man-of-war arrive, and all ends happily in Franco Chinese cho- rus.
 Phil Branson has been cast for Pe- tite Pierre, part which he played in the first production, and Thomas Leary has a good chance as SoSoriki, the com ical factotum of Tyfoo.
 A Chinese ballet and orchestra, new scenery by Fest, new costumes and a liberal interpolation of new music are promised In the production.
 Fritz Scheel has been engaged to conduct a series of popular matinee concerts at the Tivoli, commencing Saturday, February 19. The band will be composed of the entire Tivoli or chestra and about twenty-five extra musicians.

 One night during her recent tour of the French provinces Yvette Guilbert found that a song which attacked her art and personality had been liberally circulated among the audience. Walk ing down to the lights she said:
 Ladies and Gentlemen On reaching your village I find that a song hostile to me has been distributed in the thea ter and elsewhere. The poet doubtless realized his injustice, for he did not sign his work But, to show that my contempt for such anonymous vuIgari- ties is equaled only by my good humor. I ask your permission to sing you these verses of a man who, perhaps. in his whole life will have but this one chance to be applauded.

Morosco's s.

Down in Dixey,' melodrama of the South, will be the new piece at Mo- rosco's. A sensational escape from death in a cotton press and the flames of burning building will be the most exciting of the situations; a pickanin- ny band and the introduction of songs, specialties and buck and wing dances will furnish the local touch and the contract to the thrilling and romantic motive of the plot.

Comment and News of Distant
 Plaus and Plauers.

Mrs. LeSl1e carter VIII soon leave Tor London. where, at the Adelphi, she will play in "The Heart of Maryland. She will return to us in an elaborate re- vival of "A Winters Tale" under the direction of David Belasco. Ye gods! By that time who will be the author Belasco or Bacon?
 Since the complete text of that ter rible Clement Scott interview, which fired the indignation of the players of England and America, has reached this country the retaliatory attacks on the London critic have in a measure abated. Principal of what Scott says is this:
 Tt is nearly impossible for woman to remain pure who adopts the stage as profession. Everything is against her. Temptation surrounds her in | every shape and on every side; her 1 prospects frequently depend upon the nature and extent of her compliance, 1 and after all human nature is very weak. These drawbacks are the things | that render 1t impossible for a lady to | remain a lady. But what is infinitely more to be deplored is that the woman who endeavors to keep her purity is almost of necessity foredoomed to fail ure in her career.
 What I have said to you will prob ably give great offense to certain peo- pie, but they are just the people l should not care about in the least, and after all, they need not put the cap on unless it fits them, and I should think if they do find it fits they will at least have the good worldly sense to keep such a fact to themselves"
 Julia Marlowe's new romantic play is an adaptation of Rudolph Stratzs "The | Tall Prussian," under. the English title of '"The Countess Valeska." Its scene is laid in Poland in 1907; it's action is supposed to pass on the evening of a battle; it presents an episode in the ex- perience of a noble young woman who is in sympathy with Napoleon, but in love with a Polish officer She har- bors the officer on the night of the bat tie of Friedland, and he repays her by 1 attempting to poison Napoleon.

''The psychopath- ology of the French drama does not include anything more morbid and un- real than this consumptive harlot sac rificing herself for a lover.

The case of John Joachim VS.. M.
Dziedzic, for wages for farm work al
legged to be due the plaintiff, came up
again before Judge Shaw this week.
1t was expected that Dziedic's mar
ried daughter would again testify t ,
Joachim having received his salary
in kisses and a large crowd of the
curious were on hand. They were
disappointed, however. The defense
claimed that the work was volun-

thought he could thus propitiate the
father OF the girl. But as she mar
ried another, the plan didn't work.
Judge Shaw reserved the decision.
