MuTINEERS HELD THE WARsHIP.
Threatened 10 BOmbard Lisbon and Forced
Officers to Yield to Them.

Special came DcSphlCH 10 lHE NUS.
LONDON, April 13.-The following details
have been received of the mutiny on Wednes-
day on board the Portuguese flagship Dom
Carlos at Lisbon. The discipline aboard
the warship had been lax and new officers
were recently put in command. The men
resented this, and when shore leave was
refused them they seized a Lieutenant
and carried him to the bulwarks, shouting:
Throw him overheard" Two warrant
officers, by threatening to fire on the
mutineers, saved the Lieutenant from
taking an involuntary bath, hut the men
insisted that he be put ashore, which was
done.
Upon landing he informed Admiral
SCUBA, who accompanied him back to the
ship. The crew, however, refused 10 let
the Lieutenant aboard. They told the
Admiral that unless the Government prom
ised to pardon them and give them an
entirely new set Of officers they would sink
the ship. The Admiral promised to comply
with their demands il they would sur
render
The men showed him that they had pos
session of the ma gazine and that the guns
were loaded. They threatened to board
any warship that approached them, and
also to fire on the city If they were attacked
Admiral Anaral also conferred with the
men and promised them justice and free
dom from arrest. Eventually the men
yielded, and 4S5 of them went ashore. Their
fate has not beer reported.
A smaller mutiny has since occurred on
the torpedo boat destroyer Teio. Naval
officers say that their prestige is gone, and
that it would have been better to have
sunk the Dom Carlos thar to have capitu-
lated To the mutineers.

feet.

SEVILLE, April liking Alfonso further
increased his popularity here to-day. He

his sister, Infanta Maria Teresa, and her
husband, Prince Ferdinand, when he was
suddenly missed, together with the lnfanta

A search was made for them and they
were found in the street in the midst of d

The royal party then wormed their way
through the crowd, who wildly cheered
his Maiesty, whose democratic behavior
has COMPLETELY won their he arts.

pany No. 1, of the Madison Avenue sta
ton, has succeeded Henry GLAND as
captain Of the North Montgomery sta
ton. other new men at this house are
]. A. d. Smith and J. A. Finley.
It will be remembered that. when
this station was first opened. only six
me6 were appointed to serve In opera
ting the hose wagon to wait until the
commissioning of the steamer for the
force to be increased to nine. AT the
time Henry GLAND was transferred
from the Scott street station and was
Idesienated as captain until further no
tice.
While the steamer was formally
commis sioned by Chief BrOwder at noon
Monday, still 1t did not go into actuai
service until yesterday morning. Tne
engine was formerly at the Scott street
station and gave way TO the new
Ahrens steamer. The old engine has
been stored in North Montgomery for
several weeks and. now that 1t has
been commissioned, 1t will be known
as steamer No. 8.
Pursuant to request. Chief Browder
yesterday sent to the mayor a list OF
appointments and changes at the North
Montgomery station occasioned by the
service of the new engine. Mayor
league approved every appointment
c. A. Ayres became captain at mid
night Sunday and Henry GLAND was
named as engineer. The chief thought
1t best to have a man in charge who
would be in position to direct his men
ana be with them in leading q fight
on fire. He did not doubt the abili-
ty of Engineer GLAND. but 1t occurred
to him that an engineer is always too
busy attending to the operation OF his
engine to have an opportunity to be
with his men in the thick OF fire and
flame.
F. E. Brown who has heretofore been
pipeman in North Montgomery, was
appointed driver Of the steamer. and
J. A. D. Smith and ]. A. Finley. new
men, were given positions as pipemen,
completing the force.
Shortly after approving the appoint
ments. Mayor league sent the follow
ing letter to Mr.. Young:

An additional fire horse for pulling
the North Montgomery steamer was
purchased by the city last week. The
city already had one horse for this
purpose.

appointed by the chief. but 1t Is ex-
pected the appointment will be an

THEATRES


Some' OF Americas geniuses must in
vent something new for minstrelsy or
minstrelsy must die.
Al q. Fields Greater Minstrels proved
this statement in Montgomery yester-
DAY at matinee and last nights per-
Torrance
Even Is the people grew tired of the
old first part. with blackface jokes, tam
DO and bone rafting, and plantation
songs. and demanded the spectacular.
Gemi-vaudeville performance that makes
up the minstrel show Of TODAY. so the
people of today are becoming tired OF
the modern performance and want
something newer
AL Field cannot be blamed for this
condition. He gave the audience at the
montgomery Theatre yesterday, lust
what the audiences OF five years ago
went into ecstacies over. And thereby
hangs tale. Audiences don't like
anything short of the classic thrown at
them five years in succession.
Mr.. Field has surrounded himself with
capable company of the obsolete mod
ern minStrels The audiences at the
Montgomery Theatre yesterday saw the
singers come in as the curtain rose
They wore court costumes of the seven
teenth century. just as they have been
wearing these costumes for five years
or more. The black face men came on
in scarlet suits of silk, even as they
have done for half a decade. The tenor
singer sang lay. which was at least
a near relative to the song which the
tenor singer sang several twelfthmonths
ago, and the baritone falsetto follow
ed in the same style approved by long
usage. The chorus ran up behind the
soloists and got their heads together
The comedians told variations of the
mother-in-laW Joke and sang loud coon
songs. but AL Field did not get off his
Anderson monologue.
The singers of this years show are
good The chorus work could hardly
be improved on. An excellent orchestra
was provided and once or twice the
comedians caused good, hearty laughter.
But the theatregoing American is de-
manding something new. That is the
cry of managers all along the line, and
AL Field and modern minstrelsy does
not provide It,
Many of the number were entirely
praiseworthy. Mr.. Field has captured
a rare funmaker In Press Eldridar. His
r1onologue was clean and laughable, and
he sang songs with fine expression and
humor. Doc Quigley was ever the
rrince of minstrel dancers. but Doc
Quigley has been doing that dance for
these many years. I'VE Never Seemed
So Far Apart Before" by Walter Sher-
Martel, were both well rendered Let
Me Down Easy" by Harry Skunk, and
where Is Brown" by Harry VanFos-
sen. were cracking good coon songs
The chorus sang the Sextette from
Lucia in a pleasing fashion.
The olio was composed of yodel
song and chorus "a trick musical turn,
and an acrobatic act, all of which were
we'll rendered, but all OF which were
old.
Mr.. Field is q great favorite in this
country He IS always honest with
the public and his performances are
ever clean and wholesome. II we are
to have this style OF entertainment that
of Mr. Field is as good as any of them
But the Impression grows that the So
called modern minstrelsy is decaying.
The two Montgomery audiences seem
ed to get their moneys worth out OF
the entertainment. and certainly every

"A Wife's Secret" the emotional
drama which is the attraction at the
Biiou Theatre. was attended by larger
audience last night than on the open

lines and the actors presenting 1t are
capable.
Miss Grace hopkins, in the leading
role, as the wife with an unhappy Sc
cret. has all the scope that she needs
to display a highly developed dramatic
talent, She runs the scale of emotion
entirely and in every part and under
all circumstances does her work well.
Her support Is good. There can not be
said to be a weak character in the
cast.
The emotional phase of the play is
iieved by some good comedy work on
the part of Miss Winona Bridges as
Aunt Dilsey." an olC-time negro mann
my, and Tommy Toner as Dannie Nc
Glynn, a newsboy.
Good songs and' comical situations

A quiet, cool and comfortable house of particular excellence, conveniently situated at the corner of Second and Hill streets, in the heart of the city. but just enough removed from the cen ter of trade activities to be away from the hustle of traffic. Its location is not only the most central, but the most convenient to all theaters, art galler. ies and other places of amusement American and European plan. Rates very reasonable.
