WILL BUILD A NEW
HOME OF VAUDEVILLE
ED FISCHER TO ERECT a HAND
SOME THEATER.
The Proprietor of the Oberon Is
About to Engage in an Ambi-
tious Amusement Venture.

Two hundred thousand dollars is about
to be invested in the construction of a
new theater in San Francisco. The pro-
moter of the enterprise is Ed Fischer,
proprietor of the Oberon, and the location
chosen for the new playhouse is on O'Far-
rel street, adjoining the Alcazar.
For some time contractors have been
at work on the premises. A large three
story building was removed and excava-
ton has been made for a basement. The
plans were submitted to contractors yes
terday by the architects, and their esti-
mates will be finished to-day. Fischer
will push the work with all possible
speed. and by October the doors will be
thrown open to the public.
Vaudeville will fill the bills.
For this class of theatricals the plans
will differ somewhat from other speciality
showhouses. There will be three galleries
and a graduated scale of admission prices.
The pit, however, will be built on the or
binary plan. In general appearance it
will resemble the Tivoli, only its seating
capacity will be much greater. The speci-
fications call for a building of 80 feet
frontage and 1876 feet deep. The cost will
be great. but Fischer says he expects 10
realize handsomely on this investment.

citation. with a capital of two and half
million dollars.
The new concern is composed of some
of the largest fruit-packing establish
ments in the State and its object will be
to control and regulate the prices of
canned fruits. 1t will also ship goods to
all parts of the world. 1t is organized on
practically the same lines as the Alaska
Packers Association, and the members
hope to be able to minimize the cost of
preparing fruit for shipment and thus
dictate prices.
Under the plan agreed upon it is prob
able that some factories will be closed
altogether and others which now can
fruits of all kinds viii limit their output
to a single variety. For instance, facto-
ries in cherry growing districts are now
canning not only cherries but peaches.
pears and apricots. The fruits not raised
in that particular district must be
shipped to the country, often at great eX-
pense. After having been canned they
must be Teshipped to the point of distri-
button, which may be in the neighborhood
where they were grown. 1t is the plan of
the corporation to save this double ship
ping bill by treating each variety of
fruit in the portion of the State where it
grows in largest quantities.
The new concern held q meeting yes
terday afternoon and organized with the
election of the following directors: A. d.
Cutler of the Cutting Fruit Packing Com
pany; NJ J. Fontana of Fontana & Co !;
E. H. Nelson. California Preserving
Company; +. Tillmann Jr, Oakland Pre-
serving Company; ]. H. Hunt, Hunt Bros.

Company; w. j. Hotchkss Russian Riv-
er Packing Company; James Madison, A.

The concerns which have not entered
into the combination are the Southern
California Packing Company, the Pacific
Cannery Company and the California
Canneries Company.

ANTIOCH GUN CLUBS
ARE GETTING READY
SEVENTH TOURNAMENT OF THE
TARGET ASSOCIATION.
Men From All Parts of the State Will
Meet in Competition at the An
nual Festival

Trap shooting is now one of the lead
ing outdoor sporting features which has
numerous supporters in all parts of the
State.
Four years ago a few enthusiastic
sportsmen in different parts of the coun-
try, desiring to develop the trap shoot
ing skill of individuals and to promote
acquaintance and good fellowship among
sportsmen. met and organized the Cali
fornia Inanimate Target Association. I'm
der its auspices six successful trap shoot
ing tournaments have been held at San
Francisco Stockton, Alameda, San Jose
and Monterey. Now the seventh tourna-
ment, which promises to eclipse in every
particular all previous tournaments, will
be held at Antioch on the 18th and 30th of
this month
will provide for five twenty-bird races
each day. Glass shooting is to prevail
and a trophy is to be provided as the
first-class prize in every event and the
prize money will be divided between the
successful competitors in the four classes
Heretofore it has been the custom where
four moneys We're given to allow 40 per
cent to the first class, 80 per cent to sec
10 per cent to fourth class. But this year
the old way of doing business-that is in
segregating the money in priests to be
the first class, 20 to the second - Class S. 30
to the third class and 40 to the fourth
class. The philosophy of this division is
to place the greatest amount of money
where there will be the greatest number
of men to share it's division.
The trophies to be shot for this year are
"three-man team trophy will be con-
tested for at Antioch for the third time,
and this promises to be one of the hottest
will be provided for the ''six-man teams
and the usual cash prizes will be given
for high averages Decorations will also
be provided for the best two averages be-
tween so and 80 per cent. three for the
best three averages between 20 and so per
cent and four for the best four averages

Harry CoGor's Famous Checks-Captured in
Austria ia-Bothered a Rail-
way Train.

Harry COnor, who is at the head of
the HOyt-McKee Co., is the main figure
in an amusing story told last evening
at the Hawaiian hotel.
When ne was in Australia two years
ago, plaids were all the rage at the
time and few days before he was to
return home he gave an order for
pair of trousers 10 be made from a pat
tern that was very pronounced, the
tailor assuring him that it was the
proper thing. The trousers arrived at
Mr. Conor's hotel the morning of the
day he was to sail for America.
"Whew," he cried when he looked at
them, there is only one use l can put
them to, and that is to enter them in
competition with a vest Mr.. Hoyt Oc-
casionally wears"
The morning the steamer was due
to arrive in San Francisco, Mr.. Conor
appeared on deck with the trousers
on, and all the members of his COM
pany complimented him on his good
taste, assuring him they were neat and
becoming.
The company rested for a day in San
Francisco and Mr.. ConOr with his
trousers was the cynOsure of all eyes.
The next morning as he paid his bin
| the cashier at the Occidental hotel re-
marked: You look pale, Mr.. COnOr.
Yes said Mr.. Conor, loss OF sleep.
| was foolish enough to leave that pair
| of trousers | wore yesterday in my
room last night, and they were so loud
they woke me up about 1 o'clock and
| couldn't get to sleep again" On his
| trip east he took the trousers with him
into sleeping car. In the middle OF
the night he got up, called the porter
and, taking the trousers from satchel
! he handed them to the man with this
presentation speech: 1T lis my inten-
| ton to give this pair of trousers, not
as an evidence of esteem nor as lure
to secure your good will. l simply
| give them to you because they keep
me awake nights, and l make this
clean breast of my motives because /
would not have fellow blindly relieve
me of this burden unacquainted with
the nature of what he is taking upon
| himself. Knowing what you do now,
will you accept the trousers ?"
| The porter cast one look at the trOus-
ers and turned haughtily away. Upon
| that Mr.. Conor opened the window and
| threw them out. The train was stand
| ing at a station, other cars were being
attached, and just as he ~lropped the
trousers the train received a fearful
| bump, awakening everybody in the
sleeper, who asked, whats that?"
"Oh, nothing" replied Mr.. Conor, 81
| just dropped those COMPOUNDED trousers
out Of the window" A merry chorus
shouting Rats greeted his infOrma-
| ton.

A Fund of $4,000 Needed-Presi.
dent and Secretary

The special committee of the Chamb
er of Commerce on the Greater Omaha
Great Colonial Exposition has been
busily and generously engaged for
many hours since it's appointment and
is now ready to report. meeting OF
the Chamber to hear from the commit
tee will be held today or tomorrow.
Members of the committee stated Sat
urday and yesterday that they consid-
cred their proceedings and conclusions
strictly private until handed over to
the appointing body. There was re-
fusal to give information for publica-
ton. 1t was stated that the committee
was very enthusiastic"
The last that was learned definitely
OF the work of the committee was that
it was hesitating or celebrating on the
sum that should be named for eX-
penses. The amount agreed upon was
$40 900, but this looked pretty large for
the total of a popular subscription and
there were suggestions that it be re-
duced somewhat 1t was argued, how
ever, that $4,000 could be used advan-
tageously in the work that has been
outlined There is not much hope of
securing any financial aid from the
Government.
Two gentlemen we'll known to the
community and who will doubtless be
entirely acceptable to the Chamber OF
Commerce, are named by the special
committee for the posts of president
and secretary of the Hawaiian commits
sion to Omaha. They are Governor
Cleghorn and Daniel Logan.

now devoting all of his time to the
proposed First American Bank, left for
San Francisco by the Gaelic and hopes
to get through with his business in the

done to advance the interests of the
business in hand. Mr.. LiIienthal will
return to Honolulu with Col. Macfar-

the assessable stock signed for here is
to be made at San Francisco.
