 These officials occupied positions on the stage, robed in ancient costumes of days long gone by. The farce opened with a burlesque in which such prominent cciti- phy, c. c. O'Donnell, Sam Rainey, Long John Wilkins, pr. Rottanzi and His Whis- kers Judge Campbell were proposed for membership. Several objections were of fered against their admission and they went by the board until the name of Dr. Rottanz was reached, when quite dis cussion was had on his availability It was finally agreed that the doctor was not eligible for the degrees conferred In purgatory but was a fit candidate for the higher degree of that conferred in sheol; he was passed on his merits.
 The initiation of two candidates was full of humor, especially the second degree in which Dante's Inferno was but mild picture of the lavish consumption of sul- phur which was burned in cleaning the two cahqaTeS tba GI tne5T ittdd fres pTepiara i ship with the kings of the middle region.
 The spectacular and lurid stage effects were representative enough to give vivid picture of what preachers in early days presented to their f1ocks in order to keep them on the straight road to the good place above.
 After the stage scenery and the bur- lesque initiation had been gone through with. the hall was cleared of the seats and dancing became the order of the night.

WILL ERECT A THEATER. An Opera House Is Projected for Sar Francisco by a New Syndicate.

When a sufficient number of stock holders can be secured to subscribe for stock in the new theatrical company which will be shortly inaugurated in this city for the purpose of erecting an opera house on the corner of Eddy and Jones streets, opposite the old Republican Wig wam, active work will be begun.
 A number of capitalists of San Fran cisco are interested in the venture, among the most prominent of whom are James D. Phelan, who bought the property on Eddy and Jones streets expressly for the purpose of the erection of theater, and Mir Bouvier recently connected with the Al Hayman management of the Bald win.
 The idea is to erect a theater where accommodations would be sufficiently ex- tensive to warrant bringing to this coast big first-clasS operatic attractions. The building will not be devoted exclusively to theatrical purposes, but will be pro- vided with halls, meeting-rooms of all kinds and assembly-rooms large enough for convention purposes.

EDITOR p. c. Al know it is none
of my business, and can only offer IN
way of excuse my personal interest in
yourself, but what reason existed for
the riding you gave Rev. klLcaId in
yesterdays issue? What end in view?
What principle at stake?
You may say and suppose you will,
the truth, but the truth was not N
question, and if the reverend gent.e-
man left any skeletons hanging in The
closet for Gods sake where was the
necessity of dragging them out and
rafting their bones in the faces OF the
American family?
Now as to the reason of my writing
this it so happened that / sat under"
the reverend gentleman and was much
interested in and hugely enjoyed his
address, and although not hysterical,
but rather, an analytical American,
with him, | thank God for the victory
of American arms by land or sea, but
in my case, right or wrong; with him
believe our country the most progress
sive and the most magnificent on the
face of the earth; with him l thank
God for those patriotic feelings that
have induced the flower OF the Ameri-
can youth to offer themselves as sacri-
fees on the altar OF patriotism; nor
less the sacrifice whether re means
be the bullet, the fever, or the incom-
petence of the officer, and with him
hope that God will preserve in the
breast of every American that uevo-
tion that will lead to the sacrifice, even
of life if necessary, for the flag, right
or wrong.
For myself l think that when the
veins cease to thrill, the heart to beat
faster. or the eyes to fill upon hearing
| a patriotic song, tale or address; when
the blood has grown so cold LIN fact
that patriotism is but a word, that the
| decadence only of American lnstltu-
tons is to be expected.
Yours very sincerely,

Base Ball Gossip.

DooC Dali 0ooctPs
According to the papers Ned Stiles is
playing great ball on the University of
Vermont team. In the game with TUFTS
last Friday he gathered in six "pick-ups"
and caught difficult fly at critical
time. The Burlington correspondent Of
the Rutland Herald says, "Stiles at sec
ond added to his reputation as one of
the fastest second basemen on the col
lege diamond by accepting seven difficult
chances without an error"
The Bannon boys who played ball on
theSt. Johnsbury nine half dozen years
ago are playing in the Eastern league
this season. Tom Bannon plays left
field for the Montreals and Jim Baunon
plays center field for the Sprng6elds.
The two brothers bat flies TO each other
almost every day, as both of them are
heavy hitters.
II. P. Patey, the Academy graduate
who is one of the pitchers in the Dart
mouth team, puzzles all the visiting
teams with his left hand curves. In
the game with Tufts only two hits were
made off from his pitching and in the
game with Brown on Monday, wher
Dartmouth won by the score OF six tc
FIVE, the press dispatch says,
"Patey, the Dartmouth pitcher, main
tanned his excellent record, puzzling thu
heavy hitters of the Brown team wher
runs were most needed"
