The dog and the cat fish

The dog barked with fury.
The eat scratched and spat;
Then climbed a sunk masthead
He couldn't get at.
Two swordfsb they dueled,
Two skates became jagged;
A horn-pout blew loudly
And had to be gagged.

Got into a gale,
To which soon was added

CAST OF CHARACTERS
IN THE DRAMA
"RiuhfS MiQhf'

Rights Might was played for the
hrst time in San Francisco, or any
other place for that matter. except
Petaluma, yesterday afternoon at the
American theater. The authors. Frank
McGlynn and Jack Gleason, both well
known in this city, were called before
the curtain and had to make speeches.
At the matinee and at the evening
performance the audiences enjoyed the
drama, and good houses are assured, it
is believed, for the balance of the week.
Frank McGlynn, in the role of SEN
ator Hardy, has fine character part
to which he does full justice Thomas
McLarnie as the sorely tempted SEN
ator with the instinct to do right and
the great temptation to do wrong is
another convincing figure. Miss Elaine
Davis as Major Hardys wife has a
pretty part and plays it with SYM
pathy and artistic discretion. She
shows promise of being able to do big
ger things
The role of leading woman is in the
hands of Miss Rose Sheridan, and Nor
val McGregor has the character of the
villain to portray, which he does well.
A review of the drama was printed in
the columns of The Call following the
tryout of the drama at Petaluma last
Friday night.

When Robert Homan3 as Pirate Hook

wedding march from "Lohengrin'' in
stead of the incidental music. Homans
had become benedick in an afternoon
After the matinee performance he dis

aid of Rev. Cecil Marrack of St Stephens

The bride was Mrs. A ]. Maynard.
When Homans as the terrible pirate

the wedding march, nearly upset the

with difficulty, though his bushes were
concealed discreetly under the grease
paint OF his awesome pirate makeup.
Ihe wedding was a surprise to his
fellow players. Homans had been a
good enough actor to disguise the usual
appearance which the romantic malady
IS wont to give It's victims. Nobody
knew of his impending dip into the sea
OF matrimony. and so when he came to
the playhouse last night and calmly
announced to Stage Director Platt that
he was marGed man there was little
time to pay him any particular honor
save to play the wedding march and to
laugh when he repeated his lines about
the roses on his cheeks.

MRS. EVANS MAKES
HIT ON STAGE
Fair Divorce Wins Big Bouquet
Of Flowers From English
Woman Admirer

After L years of domestic life Mrs.
Maad Evans. former wife of Lieuten-
ant Commander Evans as she is
billed, returned to stage life yesterday,
opening an engagement at the Pan
tages-E Empire theater in Sutter street.
In the yernacular of vaudeville, Mrs.
Evans got away with it," That is,
she successfully sang little song and
won several recalls, but unfortunately
she did not have an encore piece with
which to acknowledge the apprecia-
tion of the audience.
Her act was simple. The stereopti-
con threw on the moving picture drop

wife OF Lieutenant Commander Evans"
When the drop was raised the stage
held the woman who was the center of
lively bout with Cupid at the Mare
island navy yard, who later appeared
in the divorce court on the complaint
of her husband and whose most re-
cent experience was with an alleged
baronet who had more space in the
rogues' gallery than in "Burke's Peer
age"
Mrs. Evans was gowned in salmon

IS the curtain rose.
Encouraged by few bars from the
orchestra she stepped to the footlights
and sang little coon song. "Ah Want
You. Nah Honey; Yes, All Do" 1t was
a song she used to sing in England
when she was musical comedy star.
Then she daintily danced few pretty
steps, flashing lingerie gracefully.
She got away with it, One bouquet
was handed to the singer over the
footlights. Skeptical play goers
thought that the flowers came from the
generous management, but they were a
real tribute from Miss Hilda Seymour.

city, who admired Miss Evans years
ago when she saw her in her English
shows, and who remembered old times
with sweet peas.

during the afternoon Mrs. Evans did
her turn, and twice in the evening,
each time with increased confidence.
