"A YANKEE rouRIsry

The long delay OF Raymond Hitch
cock and his company in reaching the
coast had not exhausted the patience
OF patrons OF the Novelty. and there
was a large audience 10 see them in the
new comic opera. "A Yankee Tourist" /"
last evening Hitchcock was greeted
with an ovation. and was at last pre-
vailed upon 10 make a speech, in which
he expressed his delight at seeing San
Francisco. thanking all present, espe-
cislly the ilshers, who often applaud
when no one else dares."
The performance needed no such aid
The applause was genuine, lasting and
well deserved. The book, by Richard
Harding Davis. Is full OF bright con-
ceits. and the songs by Wallace Irwin
and the music by Alfred @. Robyn are
very pretty. The costumes are varied
and brilliant. and there are a number

Not for many moons has there. been
such gathering of society as was
found at the Chutes last night. when
the elect decided TO brave the elements
and see Alice Nielsen in La Boheme.
Although the audience was somewhat
smaller than on the opening night il
was decidedly more fashionable and
we'll known people were seen on every
side. There was a deliberation on the
part OF these aforesaid society folk in
the matter OF arriving that made the
first act a matter of rising and falling
for those already seated and filled the
house with the hurry. hustle and the
frou frou OF silken skirts TO the detri-
ment Of musical enjoyment. At. S
o'clock there were hardly a handful OF
people in the house. and IL was 3
o'clock before the last were seated.
There were a few dinners preceding
the opera. which were responsible for
some of the delays, but it seemed TO be
largely a case of miscalculation as to
the length of time required to make
the trip 10 the Chutes.
There were some handsome gowns
last night, although many people took
advantage of the weather and went in
tailor suits

told some time ago in The Call, in an
action in a Justice Court. has expand
ed. as was prophesied, into serious
action in the Superior Court before
Judge Graham.
The complaint. which was filed by
Attorney George D. Shadbourne, de-
mands an accounting of the estate
which was left by Mrs. Crowley's hus-
band, who died several years ago.
The widow became a charge and was
incompetent Sharpe placed her with
Mrs. Donohue and promised TO pay. out
of the estate. $40 a week for her care.
This, Mrs Donohue alleged, was not
done, and for a year, she says, she
went without pay.
She brought suit. finally, in Justice
Golden's court, during the pending of
which case Sharpe called on Shad-
bourne and offered to compromise by
paying the back bill in full. Shad-
bourne accepted the sum and turned
it over to Mrs. Donohue.
The suit brought yesterday by Shad-
bourne for the Widow Crowley is to
have shown before Judge Graham what
has become of the $4,000 left Mrs. Crow

Mrs. Crowley is at present at the in
digent camp in Ingleside. and Shad-
bourne believes she is entitled to some
thing better than that from the es-
tate which he demands an accounting
for.

early yesterday morning to the head
of the detective department of this city

ing that a man be stationed at the
office of the County Clerk to prevent
the issuance OF the license.
AS luck or ill-luck would have it,
the patrolman arrived in the office of
the County Clerk just as the youth
and maiden modestly appeared. The
girl was willing to say she was Is and
it would have been clear sailing il the
officer had not been there. He took
them to the station, where a lecture
was delivered by the authorities, who
seek to prevent perjury on the part
of young girls, and the two were re-
leased. The girl. who looked forlorn,
went home with her mother, and the
would-be bridegroom disappeared sadly
Miss Howell stated to the officers
that she was unhappy at home. She
said she felt that her stepfather did
not love her and that she was always
in the way" Her mother was kind to
her. the said. but as she loved Neal
and he loved her she could not see
why she should be made to suffer be-
cause she was guilty of a fault so soon

youth.
She said she went at once to the
Gould House in McAllister street on
arriving from Oakland and remained
there until yesterday. when the we'd
ding preparations were completed.

SOME COMMENT
PASSED ON THE
OLD HOME WEEK

There is. OF course, some doubt which
was the best day. Every one will have
his or her choice. The parades yesterday
were remarkable fine. II was worth all
the trouble and money OF the self-sacri-
ficing citizens to have furnished the pub
lie with such elegant spectacles.
The weather clerk has certainly been
good TO this city and Boston.
There Is a sort OF balance In this world
that keeps things going right. II the
"Japs" furnished us the troublesome
"ticklers" they also gave us the pictur-
esque sun shades that held over many a
pretty woman's head. made her even
more than usually attractive. Hundreds
OF the states fair daughters were not
slow to use the new article that combines
beauty and utility.
The ones who did not come back GER
tainy missed great treat
Those who claimed Rhode Islanders
could not be noculated with the carnival
spirit were certainly mistaken.
LIZ YOU noticed costumes much perhaps
nothing seemed more In keeping with
the spirit Of the carnival than the bright
colors Sometimes you have thought they
were not consistent with severe taste.
worn by the young and old Italian
women. Somehow they make you feel
even merrier.
There may be evils a&sut us that were
unknown in the old dayf. but electricity
has certainly added no less 10 the beau
~ OF the world than II has 10 the lessen
ing OF irksome labor. Last nights glo-
rious parade certainly left no doubt upon
that
And. by the way. is anyone complain
ing OF Mayor McCarthy's selection of our
energetic fellow citizen, Marsden j. Perry.
as leader OF tho very successful affair.
We all OF us owe Mr.. Perry a hearty
vote Of thanks.
In the matter OF decorations the mer-
chants certainly done themselves proud.
Certainly our visitors who listened 10
the music of the several bands could not
say but that we were fortunate in the
music line.
DR.. r. T. Rogers did his best TO make
the bay illumination all that IL should be.
He was the only one the weather man
went back on, but those who went 10
Edgewood and saw the preparations made
TO delight thousands join in regretting
that the doctor and his associates did not
have better luck.
Though the carnival is over the vaca-
tons go on. Many will only feel the need
of one more now.
Some of those who have returned have
found the city and state even more beau
tiful than their memory pictures were.
Few places would this be true of.
When you go back home just do your
part In keeping the country big, free and
united by dispelling any unreasonable
prejudice7- you may hear concerning New
England You know there is plenty of
sectional feeling in this country that IS
unpleasant, though not dangerous.
