DICKENS CHARACTERS
COME TO LIFE AT THE
ORPHEUM THIS WEEK

Dickens characters stepped back into
life again on the Orpheum stage last
evening through the agency of Edwin
Stevens and company. Those famous
old personages lived again by master
hands and Dickens himself must sleep
easily, knowing that none but an artist
is touching the creations of his brain.
Spencer Kelley and Frederic Rose, in
melodies past and present, have ex-
cellent voices. Their tones are rich
and clear and they sang the good old
songs that mother used to sing.
The three Les Maze brothers, knock
about comedians, If watched long
enough, would certainly give one ner-
vous prostration. They fall over every
thing in sight, and head first into the
orchestra pit, until last evening even
Mr.. Frankenstein, the orchestra leader,
looked careworn through trying to
catch the man with his baton.
Charley Case, the man who talks
about father, sings songs and tells
stories that are overwhelmingly funny
with him, but from another man would
not draw forth even smile.
The holdoVers are Merri Osborne and
company in Tanning an Actress"
Joseph Adelman trio, European xylo-
phone virtuosi; julius Tannen, mimic,
and Dan Burke and his school girls.

REFUGEES WILL
ARRIVE TODAY
Hy 5erry's Team vii Be Up Against
Real Players This Week-LocaIs
Are All Back in
Shape

Hy Berry will be up against a new
proposition at the Chutes this week.
Now that the Oakland is gone the San
Francisco team, which arrives this
morning, will line up against the An
gels in the fight for the pennant and
as the Refugees led the league until
Sunday hot fight is expected.
Many old faces will loom up when
the locals get in action against the
northerners. Spencer. Kid Mohler, Fat
Wheeler, Nick Williams and Three
Hundred Hildebrand will all show theil
phySiogs to the local fans, and they
are assured of a royal welcome. Muir
ply, Street, Quick and Henley are
some of the newcomers, and if they
make good the chances are that they
also will be given the royal hoorah be-
fore the end of the weeks playing.
If they play the same grade of ball
as they put up against Oakland, Ber-
ry's hirelings should get away with the
series with the Seals, Notwithstanding
the fact that the latter have been put
ting up a swell article of ball. All of
Berry's men are on edge now and
ready to play the game of their sweet
young lives, and if they don't do things
to the visitors it will be because some
thing is the matter.
With two days rest in which to get
ready, the locals are expected to ap-
pear in their regular lineup. Bernard,
who has been on the ailing list more
seriously than any other member of
the team, is ready to don his uniform
again, and the chances are that he will
appear in the central garden this after
noon. The other members of the team
are all fit and ready and will be there
to put up the best article of ball they
know, and will endeavor to make it
hot for the visitors.
Judge Nagle will probably officiate
for the home team this afternoon. The
judge, since Freddie Bergman crippled
his arm, has been Berry's chief sup
port in the center of the diamond, and
to give the other slab artists a chance
to recover he will be called upon to
sling them over in the opening contest
with the Refugees.

HONEY AND MIKE
START TO WORK
WELTERWElGHTS WILL KEEP
AT HARD GRAFT
While Sullivan Has Been Seen In
Action Here, His Opponent Is
a strsnger-Mellody May
BE FaVorite

Honey Melody and Mike Twin Sui
Ivan, who are to fight for the welter-
weight championship at Maud juno
tion in the near future, went at the
training grind in earnest yesterday,
and from now until they line up on the
23d of the month the boxers will do
their little best to get in shape for a
grueling battle.
When Melody started out yester-
day morning he was going up against
the game without the able assistance of
Molly Mcdonald, who left for San
Diego Sunday. Honey, however, had
plenty of good advice from the trainer
of champions before the latter left for
the bay city, and the eastern fighter
started oGt as though he intended to
profit thereby.
Mike Twin, on his part, is out at the
Oakwood inn, and also started to do
things to the roads. AS is usual when
one or the other has fight, the twins
Mike and John, help each other, so
already Mike is getting plenty of rough
work from brother Jawn.
Sullivan and Melody are almost
strangers to the local fans, although
the former has already appeared in
this city. The one memorable occa-
sion when the five man trust of Frisco
tried to buck the one man trust of Los
Angeles was the time when this hap
pened, and but few of the fans were
on hand to see Mike Twin fight Joe
Cans out at the Chutes. Therefore
Mike will be welcomed as a newcomer,
but with brother John in his corner he
should present familiar appearance.
No betting has been INDUCED in on
the fight yet, but when the spectators
get busy it is expected that Melody
will have a shade the best of it, Sui
livan, although he has whipped some
good ones in his career, is not looked
upon as the winner of the battle, and
the consequence is that Honey will
have the call in the money mart.

.CURLEY IS BACK
FROM GOLDF|ELD
Fight Manager Does Much to Boost
the Coming Go in Nevada Fight
Center-MiIl Is Now
Assured

Special to The Herald.
TONOPAH, New, April 15.-Jack Cur
ley, who was sent to Goldfield to boost
next Mondays fight show by Managers
Johnson and Brown, returned on this
mornings train. Like his fighter, Willie,
who spent a day there, the hustle and
hustle of the mining camp electrified
the easterner.
According to Curley, there is a big
demand for reserved seats at Goldfield,
and there are now but four choice re-
served seats left at the Palace and the
Goldfeld Turf Exchange.
The Wille-Schreck fight is now an
assured fact. The financing of the
show and prompt payment of bills by
Johnson and Brown has given the fight
ing game a lift which will be proven
| best by the box office receipts.
| Mike Schreck's burlesque boxing stun;
and the volunteering OF his services al
the Mizpah club last night has added
immensely to the Cincinnati fighters
popularity, and the one stunt in itself
will draw every member of the Mizpah
club. A special section, in fact the en-
| tire south end of the building, has been
| reserved for the ladies, so none of the
with or without a male escort
The advance sale agents are handling
the pasteboards with alacrity, and the
general admission So seats will be
placed on sale at the box office the
night of the fight. Light arrangements,
including four strong electric arc lamps
over the center of the ring, are now
complete, and not detail will be over
looked by the managers for the comfort
of the fight game patrons.
Referee Otto Floto is due at Tonopah
on this evenings Frisco train. The fol-
lowing by Otto Floto in the Denver
Post of April is. of interest just now
on the local fight situation:
1T looked for day or so If the WILLIE
Schreck fight scheduled for Tonopah on
Monday night next was going to fall
through and that Hogan and Curley
would have all their long trip for moth
ing. But 1T seems that with a little
manipulation matters were Strengthened
out satisfactorily to all concerned and
the match is stronger financially backed
now than ever before and what is
more Tonopah is going to be the fight
center of Nevada before the present
promoters get through.
1T seems that Mike Riley, the orig
inal manager, is out of the club. Press
reports state that Riley Is no longer
connected with the affairs of the Casino
organization and that Messrs. Johnson
and Brown are now the sponsors Of the
club. The fight itself is one of the best
possible that could be arranged, and
the spectators present will never regret
having seen the mill. 1t will do more
to boom the game than any other con-
test they ever had there.
Both Jack Curley and Billy Hogan
the managers of the principals, are con-
tident their men will win, and with that
kind of confidence permeating the air
nothing but crackerjack contest can
be the result. The press readers will
get an account from the ringside, as
many sporting editors will be there"

UNCLE TOM BOTH
SORE AND HAPPY
Glad Because Council Repudlated the
AntI-Prlze Fight Ordinance, but
None Too Happy at o'Brien's
Attitude

Uncle Thomas Jefferson McCarey was
two persons in one yesterday-he was
both pleased and disgusted. Pleased
because the city fathers saw fit to kill
the anti-prize fight bill and sore be-
cause j. O'Brien had seen fit to keep
the good word to himself and not COM
municate with the local impressario.
Although the Philadelphian called for
a goodly share of his attention, Nc
Carey spent most of the afternoon in
the vicinity of the city hall. Until the
council met he was on the anxious
seat, but after the venerable dads who
are running the municipal government
had held their little session there was
nothing to the trouble market but a
bull movement. Not even failure to
hear from O'Brien and his plan of ac-
tion could put damper on McCarey's
spirits, for he felt that he was safe
for another year.
Jack OBrlen's actions still puzzle
McCarey. Uncle Tom, after he had
been informed that the Quaker intend
ed TO make his headquarters at Bald
wins ranch, thought thta the main
trouble was thing OF the past, but as
the day went by without word from
O'Brien, Uncle Tom began to worry
From the way he figures 1t, McCarey
feels that O'Brien owes him a few
words on his intended plan Of action,
and until he hears from the Philadel-
phian In person Mac win not rest In
peace. Jawn has been more or less OF
a nuisance ever since he signed articles
for the fight with Tommy Burns, and
until he IS on the ground and within
easy reach Manager McCarey will not
feel easy in his mind.

1t does give Miss Russell opportunity
TO prove that she can act not perhaps
as we'll as once she could sing, but still
enough to permit her legitimate right

II all go well with her, she will yet

HEADS OF ROADS
TO Be ARRESTED
WARRANTS OUT FOR RAILWAY
OFFICIALS
Men Held Responsible for Lack Of
Tenders on Street Cars Will
Be Hailed Into Police
Court

Several high street railway officials
and many motormen will probably be
arrested before many days have passed
and hailed into police court to answer
a charge of breaking a city ordinance
in running street cars without tenders.
The members OF the city prosecuting
attorneys office have at last decided
to carry actions against the street, car
companies with a firm hand, and force
them to obey the ordinance they have
for so long a time refused to recog-
nize.
For more than two weeks detectives
have been gathering evidence against
the street car company, learning dhe
names of members of the operating
department as we'll as those of motor
men, until now nearly 100 warrants are
waiting to be sworn to and 1t is stated
by Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Guy
Eddy that they will be ready to be
issued this morning.
Delay in Warrants
There has been some delay in getting
these warrants issued, owing to the
fact that the prosecuting attorneys
office is running short handed. The
warrants are now ready and all last
night stenographer worked copying
them.
Attorney Eddy will handle the cases
against the street car companies as
they come up. No effort will be made to
have high fines assessed against the
members of the operating depart
ment or the motormen, as 1t is not
felt that these men are in any way to
blame for the lack of tenders. 1t is
the managers of the railroad companies
the prosecuting attorneys office is
after, and it Is thought If these men
are forced to take their places in po-
lice court and pay fines for breaking
the city ordinance they will look upon
1t with more respect in the future and
try to obey it.
1t is thought if the managers of the
roads are found guilty of breaking
the laws in the lower courts that they
will at once appeal the cases and car
ry them to the higher courts in an
effort to prove the ordinance, which
says all cars shall be equipped with a
certain kind of fender, unconstitu-
tional
This is the point Attorney John Pope
tried to make in the recent case
against Thomas A. Gabel, manager of
the Los Angeles-Pacific railway, who
was arrested charged with not having
cars on his road equipped with fen
ders. According to Judge Popes ar
gument the ordinance was unconstitu-
tional, as it demanded certain things
of the tenders which apply only to
those manufactured by a certain com
pany. Mr.. Pope argued that this
would compel the company to purchase
tenders manufactured by that firm and
said such a law was unjust.
Mr.. Gabel was found guilty of the
charge and fined 5000. The case was
at once appealed and this appeal is
still pending.
