'TUCIA" AT THE TIvoLI. Dontzetti's Favorite Opera Pleasingly
 Presented.

Two essentials necessary for the success full rendition of Donizettfs tuneful lyric opera, Lucia al Lammermoor," are full voice and art;stic costuming. That the lat ter would be found at the Tivoli goes with out saying, but just what the new mem oers of the company could and would do was a mater of uncertainty until Tuesday night.
 Anna Lichter, as Lucia, gave evidence of pure and high tones. but she showed stiffness that will probably disappear tonight Edgardo Zerui, as Edgar of Ravenswood, sang the part well, but the heetiness of his upper register at times bordered on threadiness and the notes mony
 William Pruett, as Henry Ashton. and William Schuster, as Bide-the-Bent were all that. could be wished The work of the chorus in antiphonal ais well as full singing gave evidence of a thorough ap- preciation of the harmony. and of care full training:
 While the work of Tuesday night was not all that could be desired 1t can safely be predicted that to-night's opera will fulfill all expectations

Madeline Bouton Drinks Grotto Soup While
 Miss Tinne Sips Her Broth in the E. GrilIroom.

The breach In the :Frawley Company Is widening. Social conditions have crept into the melee. Hastily improvised es- cutcheons are being brought to the front and aspersions are cast as to the secur- 3ty of the marble staircase that leads to the Grotto. The vital point now to be determined Is. Which is the more arts- tocratic-to sip your broth in the grill room or to. stay a weak and fasting stomach with nourishing. Grotto soup?
 Otherwise T. Daniel and his interesting family are very well, thank you, with, of course. the exception of Miss Madeline Bouton, who still occupies a cot in the AIcNutt Hospital, suffering with an af- lection of the spine.
 Miss BoutOn was resting more easily yesterday. and was strong enough to con fide to a Call representative her mortifi- cation and unhappiness at the published account of her dismissal from the Fraw- ley Company and the. association of her name In the same column with that of her sister artfste, Cora Tinnie.

Collapse of the Klondike Boom. Hits Hard the HumbOldt's
 ChartererS.
Baron won Schroeder Loses Heavily in the Venture and Is Now Glad to Be Rid
 of the Steamer.

While the charterers said nothing but llVed Tn hopes that business would pick in the spring.
 In order to be ready for the rush to Lawson via St. Michael and the Yukon, the charterers of the Humboldt began building two stern wheel steamers on the SSoium6ia River These were named the Game Cock and the Stag Hound While passing out over the river bar on their way north the vessels were badly strain ed, and on top of that a storm was en- SGountered Sy Ieat outside Both of them near with the greatest difficulty that their captains got them back to Astoria They now lie on the beach there of no use to anybody while the owners and under courts. -. '--o v;IIteu The war with Spain opened before the Yukon River and the prospective gold hunters enlisted in the army instead of {9aklng passage to the gold fields. The Humboldts first and only voyage to St. Michael Mic e,l was made at even greater loss than was the last one to Dyea and Skaguay, so Baron von Schroeder decid- ca that 1t was time to wind up the busi- ness and get out. This he has done and IS now poorer but wiser man.

| The steamer Humboldt has been with | drawn from the Alaskan trade ana the | people who chartered her are now Wlsh- ing they had never heard or the Boiu fields on the banks of the Yukon. Among the sufferers is the Baron Von Schroeder. He is said to be out to the extent of $lO0-
 900 on the venture, but then the money cannot be counted a total loss as his snip ping experience, acquired While hahdllhs a "Klondike rush." Is surely worth something The Baron went into the scheme with his eyes open, put no"' dc-
 cording to the water front, he knows
 thing or two about steamboating that he
 never dreamed of before. Experience
 comes high in that line and the Baron s
 cost him $100, 900.
 A year ago the rush to Dawson was at its height Men and women, too' were tumbling over each other in the mad rusn to reach the new Fl Dorado. All klnds or
 vessels were pressed into serNice anu
 craft that had been in retirement Tor years were pulled out of the different creeks and put on the Dyea and Skaguay runs Coasters were hauled off their regular routes and steam schoonerS were turned into passenger vessels. dects oiii1id and steamers that had been used Tn the cat tie trade were fixed up to carry gold hunt- CTS A dozen Eastern steamers came around the Horn to join in the rush, while in expectation of the spring stampede via St Michael and the Yukon the keels or fully hundred river boats were lalu ana ocean-going steamers were taken on their regular voyages because bigger money could be earned carrying passengers Tor the gold fields. s- ure the Australia was one and the Hnr,lo snan boldt another. Both were secured at SSOo @ day, but when the bottom began qrop- ping out of the boom the Pacihc Coast Steamship Company was able to cancel its charter of the Australia, but the char terers of the Humboldt were not so Ior- tunate. Under the terms of their con- tract they are bound to keep the vessel for nine months at the rate of $24,0o0 month and only two-thirds of the time has elapsed. Arrangements have now been made, however, by which a certain sum of money changes hands and the yes sel is returned to her owners:
 The ostensible charterer of the Hum boldt was J. A. Magee Jr., but the back bone of the venture was the Baron von Schroeder. An ironclad agreement was entered into with the Humboldt Steam ship Company after a great deal of bick- ering. Other people were after the steamer so the owners set figure and price was agreed upon, the Baron fur nished a gilt-edged bond for the due per formance of his part of the contract and the Humboldt was turned over 10 the new management
 Had the boom continued all would have been well, as the Humboldt is one of the fastest and best equipped steam CTS on the coast. During her term of made more and faster trips than any other vessel in the business, while the num- Der of passengers she carried has been above the average. Still, she did not self-evident. However the vessel was kept going, and as each month came around the sum of $24 900 was duly hand ed over to the owners of the steamer.

ton finds time to nurse an old wound. The published account of how the Bouton heart had passed into the possession of one Sumner B. Hollander Is matter of constant anguish to the fair lady.

That Hateful night I went to the Grotto with lady friend. l had been weak and miserable all day, and she said, Madeline, you must come with me and give your poor weak stomach something warm; So l went to get a cup of broth j And that is the cup of broth Miss Tinnie would use upon her escutcheon.
 In the world theatrical there are all sorts of rumOrs concerning the Frawley trouble: Some insist that Miss Bouton violated the "early to bed" etc., rule and from that insignificant breach all the trouble sprang.
 In the Tinnie matter everything Is moving agreeably and smoothly It was simply case of no suitable parts for Miss Tfnnie The management is doing 1us ni pest to repair the unwitting wrong and evitable. ---

E. CULLEN ASPHYXIATED. He Has Been III and Out of Work for @ Month and Grew De-
 enondanf

Edward Cullen, native of California. about 32 years old, was found dead in bed yesterday by his mother and his sister in the family residence, 2707 Vallejo. street. The gas jet had been turned on. The family say that water in the pipe or a sudden decrease in the pressure extin- guished the light after he went to sleep on the evening before and that when the pressure was put on again or when the obstruction was removed the gas escaped and asphyxiated the young man.
 Decedent had been i'll with rheumatism for about a month, but apparently had no intention of committing suicide, as his suit for damages will be filed against the gas company for reducing the pressure and then turning 1t on again.

 II was not dismissed" Miss Bouton said; 'the report is as absurd and unjust as 1t Is untrue. Why, Mir. Frawley and the rest of the management are more than kind to me, and the very best of feeling exists between us. It was at MT. Frawley's earnest request that L came to the sanitarium. Anxious to see me re- stored to health, with unparalleled gener- osity, my manager offered to pay my ex- penses at the hospital"
 And so it Is only on account of MT Fraw- ley and his associates that Miss Bouton is anxious to see the report of her dis missal denied.
 Respect for FrawIey Is a strong point with Miss Bouton. She seems to have an ardent desire to keep her thoughts in his direction. On the snowy coverlid of the bed on which she losses lies a letter from Frawley. On the table at her side repose the immaculate visiting cards of the ffrm-Friedlander, Gottlob & Marx. Miss Bouton has but one regret-that she may not faithfully follow the injunctions with which the Frawley letter abounds-'Don't speak to reporters

When my nephew was two weeks old he had running sores on his face, neck, breast, and hands, which continued to grow worse. They looked like raw beef. Sometimes blood would come and sometimes matter. He was awfully bad. Why, we had never heard or read of such case. My sister had to tie his hands to the hammock to keep him from scratching himself, he itched so. He often rubbed his neck and face against his shoulders. The doctor did little or no good. Said it came from the blood," etc. She heard of CUTI- CURA (ointment), and bought her box, and finding it gave satisfaction she continued to use it. The bog IS all ,oel 1lo,o and his tnce Is clear.

that I did not wish to live, although I
had everything to 1.-Two for. Had hys-

sleep and was not safe to be left
alone.
Indeed, 1 thought I would lose my
mind. No one knows what endured.
IL continued this way until the last
of February. when I saw in . paper .
testimonial of lady whose case was
similar to mine, and who had been
cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegete-

and felt better after the first dose. I
continued taking it, and to-day am .
