with grateful pleasure the engagement

that he has not repeated his tour. No

an actor and ooholarly gentleman. From
an intimate, friend ot, his in tbis city, I

whole outlook so encouraging that he
haa already booked another American

Never was there a story written, never

nuuuuuwiuvilll,
It may be accepted without question
that the local amusement public will
welcome with unfeigned delight the ap
pearance at the Loa Angelea theater on
April 12th, 13th, 14th and 15th, of the
famoua Bostoniana, tbe representative
exponents of opera comiqne in America.
The engagement mirks the last appear
ance of this company here for at least
three years, Dekoven A Smith's de
lightful liobin Mood being announced
as the opening bill. It need hardly be
recalled that throughout the country
from the Pacific to the Atlantic this
piece has been declared a work of very
Hiiperior merit, both musically and in
trie faithful manner in which tbe old
Btory of Robtn Hood and his merry men
of Sherwood forest is reprtduced. It is
possible not only to do well, hut very
■veil, and not only very well, but very
much better than very well.
Tho axiom wonld seem to fit tho
Bostonians. They have not only
achieved snccesa, but very great success,
and not only very great success, but very
much greater than very great succeßS.
No sooner were they well afloat upon
the Boa of management than Messrs.
Barnabee, Karl and Mac Donald turned
their attention to nalive authors and
composers. DeKoven and Smith had
written but oue work, Tbe Begum, when
,tne noßxoni»ti<i gitye tueui a cOmolmmuii
for an opera. This resulted in Don
Quixote, which was played for a season
and was followed by Kobin Hood, which
has proven the most unquestionable and
enduring snccess among the many works
of American origin—a success which
bids fair to place this opera upon the
classical list for futuro generations to
11. 0. Barnabee.
enjoy. Reside this, the Bostonians have
encouraged composers and authors in
other quarters, aud have now a number
of new workß of American authorship
which make up a repertory hitherto uu
eqnaled.
It is thia apliitof thorough patriotism,
allied to artistic endeavor, which has
won for the Bostonians such large suc
cess, and in that success the public
properly takes a generous pride. With
the sagacity of thoroughly experienced
artists who have learned management
from the inside of the business, Messrs.
Barnabee, Karl cV Mac Donald have not
been content simply with finding merit
orious works, but have exercised un
usual care in the presentation of their
operas. Every accessory that money
and good tAste could provide has been
found in their productions, and this
season they have approximated tbe
grand opera standard in engaging a
double company of principal singers so
that the important rolea may always be
euog by artißta with unworn voices. In
a similar way the auxiliary forces have
been strengthened and improved and
the costume and scenic features have
bsen polished and refined in every poa-
Bible manner.
It is hardly to be expected that per
formances of such high class, involving
Buch a tremendoua outlay of money,
could be given at the ordinary prices.
The Bostonianß have found it necessary
to make their scale range irom 25 cents
to $2, and in nil the cities from New
York to Ban Francisco there has been
no reluctance on the part of the public
to meet these figures. Messrs. Barnabee,
Karl and MncPnneld frankly state that
it ia impossible to maintain the superi
ority of their representations at the
regular prices paid comparatively in
expensive compAnleß, as tbeir expendi
tures are greater by three to one than
the generality of combinations. The
four weeks' season at the Baldwin
theater, just concluded, waß the largest
in the hißtory of that house, the seats
being sold out two weeks in advance.
In addition to Robiu Hood, the latest
De Kovan and Smith opera, The Knick
erbocker, will be Eeard here. Thia piece
has made a most remarkable success,
having been accepted at once as a corn

those who know the charming qualities
of the latter work this is praise indeed,
and will stimulate interest in the new
opera even beyond ita natural limit.-
There ire three new pieces now in the
Bobtoniana' repertory, the third being
Walter and Alliaon'sTheOgalallaa,which
has jnat hesn added, and which the
public hat freely declared ie truly great.

T ausig's Valse Caprice was particularly

studies by Chopin also callH for special
mention.
Miss Aus der Ohe Is certainly remark
able for force, dignity and delicacy of
expression, which are combined with a
perfect technique and a deep artistic
spirit. Her delicacy of shading and
wealth of expression, however, appeal
most to the sensibilities, but her rank in
everything connected with her art ia of
the highest.

Not being used to it, he was yery un
comfortable, and perspired freely. The

from whom he had rented it and asked
its price. It waa satisfactory, and the
money was given up. It turned out
afterwards that the manager had be
come disgusted witb life in a dress suit
and had gone out after the performance
to drown his sorrows in the usual way.
He landed home at 5 a.m. with little
more than tbe buckle of the dress vest
left, 'this is why he sent around tbe
next day to purchase it. All of which
reminds us again that sporting life'is a

FRIDAY MORNING CLUB.
The Members' Reception by Airs. Gra

In their beautiful home, Wyngate, at
South Paaadena, Mrs. Margaret Collier
Graham and her sister, Misß Jennie E.
Collier, received on Friday the Friday
Morning club.
At 10:28 a.' m. the clab, numbering
with its guests about 150 women, took
the Santa Fe train for South Pasadena,
reaching Wyngate about 11 o'clock.
This beautiful place has a location un
surpassed for its magnificent view of
mountain ranee and fertile valley. On
its broad porches and vine-clad balconies
the gueßts lingered, loth to lose the bril
liant effecta of the sunshine on enow
peaks and orange bloom, on rugged foot
hills and brigbt-bued blossoms.
The house, itself faultless in its ap
pointments and moat exquieite in dec
oration, was peculiarly delightful. Mrs.
Graham and Miss Collier, assisted by
their mother, Mra.Collier, and Mrs. E. H.
Enderlein and Mrs. J. A. Osgood of Los
Angeles received tbeir guests in the
drawing room, which was hungand dec
orated in yellow, tbe library in Cherokee
roses, and the ball in bamboo and apri
cot bloßaome, were rhoat artistic, while
the upper floors in Duchess roses and
other.beantiful flowers were most pro
nounced iv their effects.
The refreshments, served at 12 m.,
were dainty and much enjoyed. In the
afftemoon readings and recitations, with
vocal and instrumental music, were in
order.
Later in the day the "regiater,"»in
which each guest had inscribed her
name, with a sentiment or quotation,
was read and much enjoyed.
Mrs. Grahsm is a most graceful and
charming hostess. Brilliant in conversa
tion, a profound reader of human na
ture, she entertains with rare grace. As
a writer she is well known. Many who
met her for the first time yesterday will
read her new story, Idy, in tbe April
Oenturv today with especial interest.
The Friday Morning club will long re
member her gracious and lovely hospital
ity, and mark its day at Wyngate as a
red-letter day on the club calendar.
THE GILA'S FLOOD.
The River Suddenly Went on a Ram
page.
The recent rise in the Gila river, says
the Yuma Timea of the 29th, was one of
the most sudden ever noticed. The
flood came down in a wave from five to
eeven feet high. At th* county line tbe
water rose in half an hOiSr so aa to make
an almost impassable stream.
Not much damage has been reported.
At the South Gila canal camp the pile
driver outfit, consisting of engine, boiler,
derrick and pump, was carried down
stream with tbe flood and had not been
recovered at last accounts. The water
haß since subsided, and yeaterday was
at a standstill. The Gila flowing into
the Colorado here has made the water
almost undrinkable for a time, from
some cause.

Last Thursday night tbe pleasant
home of Mr. and Mm. L. J. Llewellyn.
851 P.uena Viata street, was the scene of
a happy social event, tbe occasion being
a surprise parity in [ celebration of Mra.
Llewellyn's birthday anniversary.
Shortly after 8 o'clock the guests, num
bering about 50, old and young, reached
the house and made their presence
known by singing the chorus of the
Welsh national air, and to say that
Mr. and Mrs. Llewellyn were surprised
when they flung wide open the door,
would be putting it mildly. But, al
though completely taken off their guard,
their hospitable nature quickly asserted
itself, and ail were bidden to enter.
Every one was soon made to feel thor
oughly at ease and'at home. When all
were assembled in the spacious parlors,
Mr. J. Mills Davies assumed charge of
the gathering, which for a short time
was resolved into an informal literary
meeting. He v. D. Hughes gave a short
address complimentary to the host
and hostess; Mr. J. Mills Davies
followed with a few well-chosen words
appropriate to the occasion. An original
poem dedicated to Mr. and Mrs. Llewel
lyn waß read by J. H. Humphreys,
while all who were called upon res
ponded with song or recitation. Several
selections were rendered by Mr. and
Mrs. Llewellyn in tbeir usual happy and
pleasing manner. Refreshments were
then served, followed by an enjoyable
time spent in social converse. Before
midnight the last good-night had been
said, and all bad gone home after ex
pressing themselves as having spent a
thoroughly enjoyable evening.
The A. O. H. will have a joyful good
time tomorrow evening at Armory hall,
when they will celebrate their nine

affair promises to be a great success. Be
sure and attend, for tbe committee have
made arrangements for everybody to
have a good time.

ON TRIAL.
That's a good way to buy a medi
cine, but it'B a pretty hard condition
under which to sell it. Perhaps
you've noticed that the ordinary
Hit or misß medicine doesn't at
tempt it.
The only medicine of its kind so
remarkable in its effects that it can
be sold on this plan is Dr. Pierces
Golden Medical Discovery. As a
blood-cleanser, strength-restorer, and
flesh-builder, there's nothing like it
known to medical science. In every
disease where the fault is in the
liver or the blood, as Dyspepsia, In
digestion, Biliousness, and the most
stubborn Skin, Scalp, and Scrofulous
affections, it is guaranteed in every
case to benefit or cure, or you have
your money back.
To every suffcer from Catarrh,
no matter how bad the case or of
how long standing, the proprietors
of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy say
this : "If we can't cure it, perfectly
and permanently, we'll pay you $500
in cash." Sold by all druggists.
