Pygmalion ami Galatea."Mr. and Mrs. James Car.leu, assisted by

"Pygmalion

and Galatea," last night nt Odd Fellows'Hull. Mr. A. L. Wise, their business' man-ager, had managed to nearly fill the house,and n large nnmlier of tickets had been soldwhich were not represents! by holders.

Tnose who failed to attend niissedja treatfor the acting was distinctly above theamature standard and the play i-> very in-teresting. The story is brief and the ac-tion of the play is comprised within a spaceof twenty-four hours. Pygmalion, a highlygifted Greek sculptor, repines because hisstatues— richly endowed us they are withbeauty of feature and grace of form

—must

ever remain lifeless. His wife, Cynisca,his constant model, speaks of his calling"the senseless marble iuto life," and then,referring to his eh ef work,(a figure of Gal-atea be replies bitterly;

The lifeless, senseless mockery of lire.The gods make lire,Ican make only death.His wife chides him for this feeling of in-

gratitude as to the powers given him.Having to leave him for a day, she bids himpour out his love for her to Galatea.While Cynisca is absent Galatea comes tolife, declares that she owes her existence toPygmalion and expresses' strong love forhim. Carried away tor a moment by thepassionate utterances of the innocent,warm-hearted woman who embraces him,Pygmalion forgets his wife uud the strongbond that exists between them, each havingreceived the power to bring blindness onthe other should there be even a thought ofunfaithfulness. Cynisca returns, finds Gal-atea alive, calls down the curse upon herhusband.

(jalatea learns she has been the cause ofthe misfortune that lias overtaken Pygmal-ion :uid has brought tinhappiness into hishome. Inanswer tv her prayers she is abletv speak N'.iiii Cjrnisca's voice, and so speak-ing she forgives Pygiualii n .1^ for lu^ wil -,

ALAM DA.

A Sensational Scene on the ISroari-GaiigeLocal.

It.B.Tappan has resigned as a memberof the Free Library Trustees.

The Board of Education, after a ion;; dis-cussion, ha* finally awarded the contractfor the furniture for the new school-houseat Bay street, and placed $5570 insuranceon it.

The police discovered two men hidingbe-hind « lumber pile a few night* ago andthought they were burglars. They wereabout to lake them into custody when theymade known their identity. They we Her.Mr. Crowder and Mr. Griffin, members ofthe AlanieJa Home Protective Association,and were watching a saloon to observe whenit closed, expecting to secure evidence thatthe owners were violating a city ordinance.

A sensational scene took place on thebroad-gauge local train, which left Alamedaat 12 o'clock yesterday for Oakland. Amongthe passengers was Justice of the Peaceliyler, who was on his way to his home atthe West End. When the train reached Bay-street Station Mrs. Flora Morris, the di-vorced wife of Gtorge Morris, approachedHid, and, in a reproachful manner, askedhim why he had made an allidavit chargingher with being an immoral woman, andupon what grounds he base! such a charge."IJudge people by the company they

keep/ was Justice Byler's reply,"Yuu are a dirty liar," exclaimed Mrs.

Morris, and at the same time she struck thoJustice three times with her clenched fist.

'1 lie Justice was not prepared for such anattack, and could not defend himself fromthe stinging blows of the intimated wo-man. Upon recovering from his surprisehe seized her by botii wrists and held herstill until the train reached Mastick Station.But, although her arms were powerless, hertongue win free, and sho gave the Justicea most severe tongue-lashing.

"The next time 1 meet you Iwill killyou," she exclaimed in a rage, as her breastheaved to ana fro. ''You will not get olfwith a few siaus, but 1 willtake your life,Iwill teach you to defame my character,"and she poured upon the bewildered Jus-tice epithets that made is blood run cold.When the train reached Mastick Stationshe had almost exhausted herself, and theJustice, releasing the bold winch he had onher, alighted, while she continued her jour-ney to Oakland.

The domestic troubles of the Morriseshave made them notorious, and the sceneof yesterday was only one of many disgrace-ful ones in the drama of her life. She hadalready been a divorced woman when shemarried George Morris, which was aboutseven years, ago. Their wedded life did notprove a happy one arid she became a di-vorced woman for a second lime. Theissue of her marriage with Morris was achild, over whose possession the couple Isnow in litigation. When the divorce wasgranted the custody oftbe child was awardedby stipulation to the father, and about threemonths ago the mother desired the child andinstituted proceedings in the Tehama CountySuperior Court to have the order annulledby which the custody of the child was givento the father.

She accomplished her object, although theattorney for the father states that he wasnot treated justly by the Judge who heardthe motion, and was not allowed to provethe character of the mother. But the an-nulling of the order^did not have the resultshe had anticipated. The father dis-appeared with the child ns soon as hi?learned that its custody had been awardedto the mother, and lias since been in Hiding.A new Judge has taken his seat in the Te-hama County Superior Court, and a motionis now pending before him asking that theorder give tho custody of the. child to thefather. Insupport of this motion, severalaffidavits were filed, and one was made byJustice iiylcr to the effect that he had fre-quently seen Mrs. Morris in company withaman named Keller, and that he does notbelieve her to be moral. Itwas to this thatMrs. Morris referred when she in:\de hersavage attack on the Justice. Justice Hylerhad her arrested on three charges—ing the peace, battery and threatening tokill. She was unable to furnish bail, andwas taken to the County Jail last evening.The complaints were issued out of JusticeSwasey's court. \u25a0

Berkeley.Now that the railroad detective has

ceased to frequent the local trains the smallboys commence once more to amuse them-selves by jumping on and off the trains.

Marshal Schmidt will have the do/-taasready very soon. To tho regular cost of $3per year for tho licensing of each dog, 50cents i- added to remunerate !Town Mar-shal for the trouble of issuing the licenses. :

The Town Marshal lias also been in-structed by the Town Trustees to removethe pe.sthouse belonging to the town from1). IS. Boswell'iranch. The town has beenpaying rent for the land on which tho littlewooden structure stands for somei mouths,but has had no lisa for it,mid as itis not in-dependently rich;at present it was con-sidered a good plan to take down the struct-ure. •

CV K. Lloyd surrendered the key'

to the

.Justice's office at West Berkeley to TownMarshal Schmidt, but refused to give up thedocket. He claims that he was elected forone year, and that his term does not expireuntil May. The Town Trustees have re-quested him to turn over his cilice and doc-uments to S. A. Penwell, who was electedat the recent general election to the office,but Lloydsays he willnot do so until or-dered by the Superior Court. He waselected at the town election, but recentopinions are to the effect that the Justice ofthe Peace for this place should be elected tin-der the general law and at,general elections.W. T. Weleker, who held office under thespine conditions, is satisfied that the elec-tions should be under the general law andhas turned ovor his oflice to Justice-electLung.

tide Was Treated.

A special meeting of the Board of FireCommissioners was held yesterday to makeinvestigations into nmlicious statements re-garding the looting of a burned building onCommercial street, made by the Stock Re-port, an evening circular.

The unreliable account of the fire rs pub-lished by that sheet contained urave accusa-tions. Firemen were charged with ran-sacking trunks nnd stealing money nndvaluables belonging to Chinese occupantsof the building, and Captain While el theFire Patrol was cited as authority for thesesingular statements.

Captain White stated at the meeting yes-terday that a number of the Chinamen whooccupied the place. reported to him that theirtrunks had been broken open. One of themhad lust 850, iinuther some money and threerings and others clothing, etc. He deniedthat hn had ever said to the reporter of theSheet in question that members of the de-partment were the guilty parties. Therewere a number of strangers mid outside.people in-.ide tho fire lines who had uobusiness tliere.

Tbe Commissioners decided that the arti-cle was without any foundation whateverand should be treated with silent contempt

MAYMAKENEW LAWS.

Important Mission of ConsulConey to Mixico.

In Personal Eeports to the Ministers He WillSug-gest Customs and Other Laws to

Foster Anerican Trade.

A.K. Coney, Consul-General of Mexicoon the Pacific Coast is In the city ofMexico on business connected with hisoflice and also on pleasure, ilis visitto the capital of the sister republic is saidto be nn important one, and full ofsignificance for merchants and others inter-ested in commerce between the United Statesaud Mexico. What Mr. Coney is now doingin a quiet and unassuming way with hisGovernment will,beyond a doubt, affect theMexican trade of San Francisco very favor-ably and that in the near future.

This city by its geographical situation issingularly favored for tindevelopment of alarge business with Mexico, and, accordingto Senor Trellanis, Chancellor <<f the Coa-sulite, all that is ncce.-s-uy to secure thistrade is a proper spirit of enterprise.

"San Francisco," said he, "is nearfcr tothe mining, industrial and commercial cen-ters of Mexico than any other larje Amer-ican city excepting St. Louis, which isabout soi-distant from these places. Buttiiero is the ocean inSan Francisco's favor."

BSPOBTB TO MIMIBTBRS."To the west coast freight of allkinds

can be carri.-d at very low rates, and thentaken into the Interior from Mexican ports.We may soon see, Mexican ships in this har-bqr. Itall depends on the removal of cer-tain restrictions of the American Shippinglaws.iou know there have boea and are sumo

oid-liishiuued methods of transacting lusi-ness between the twocountries.which, iffornothing more than the annoyance theycause inert-hunts, should be aoolished. Korexample, live invoices have to be made outhere fur every consignment to Mexico—oneeach for customs, purchaser, Government,etc. i.ut this is really about the least of theexisting difficulties that militate aaaiustcommerce trom this side. To remedy themMr. Coney willuse his influence gained bya knowledge 0! bntii countries. He willmake personal reports of his business here,iiii'J ijivesiiKKestiuus to the Minister oi Fi-nunce aud the Minister of Tublie Works inMexico of what remedies or amendmentsare considered best to develop internationalcommerce. And he will aNo endeavor tobavelaws passed by the Government thatwill foster American trade. Probably thiswillchange customs laws m favor of thiscountry by reducing the duty on many com-modities.

Vi:i:y INFLUENTIAL."Though no changes may bs made in the

immediate future, this official re, willhave great iullueuce with tile homo govern-ment. Ofcourse Mr.Coney's opinions willreceive trie c.ireful consideration due (hem,and be acted upon by the ministers.

"The Mexican Government has neverthought of adopting reciprocal measuresgainst the United States on account of the

McKinley bill. Kuiier willaction be takeninanother direction. We like to see tradewith this country made, easier if anythingthan .it present, and also to rdopt laws thatwillinduce American merchants to extendtransactions across the border in merchan-dise, machinery and enterprises."

Consul Coney has been hard at work inh is illiee for the last three years, and tookadvantage of his present trip to combinerecreation with business. During his in-cumbency hero trade on this Coast has In-creased considerably with Mexico, showingthat much interest is taken in building up abis business in the Southern republic, andthat every courtesy possible has been ad-vanced indoing so. With the expected newcustoms laws a still greater increase is ex-pected. On the Consul's return next monthit is believed that some interesting newsfor the mercantile community engaged inMexican trade willbe received.

Tlie nature of the case against Palmer isbriefly set forth in the opening statementof the prosecution, made by Mr. Jones. Itwould be shown, he said, that Palmer hadsigned receipts for money paid to fictitiouspersons, purporting to bo lor labor per-formed. The sums so paid were small, outnumerous, and extended over a period oftwelve or fifteen mouths. As a matter offact, these petty sums were embezzled byPalmer and the receipts forged to cover upthe deficiency. The total shortage is aboutfee '.

Senator Fair was the Erst and only wit-ness examined yesterday, lie said Palmerbad entire control of the ranch and all itsatfairK, and denied with much emphasU theintimation that Palmer's chief witness oneItolKhad been spirited away by Fair's de-tectives when on Ins way to S;in Francisco,kept in a close room for some tune and pre-vailed upon to appear before tho GrandJury against Palmer.

The case will be resumed to-day at 10o'clock.

AN OLD-TIME OFFICER.Dratll Of Andrew HaeKt'lizlo at the

Comity Hospital.Andrew MaeK'iizie, who was a member

of the police force of this city from 1852 to1804, died in the Cityand County Hospitalyesterday morning. MacKeozie, during hiscareer in the troublesome period of pioneertimes, was regarded as a brave and efficientman. He participated with his brother,John Mac.Kenzie, who was later a Captainof police, inseveral famous arrests, one ofwhich v.as the capture of a gang of cut-throats on the water front. One evening arelative of General Taylor, named French,was robbed in a saloon on Front street andthen thrown through a hole in the wharfinto the bay. French fortunately fell intoan ojien boat ami was picked up by theUacKemde brothers, who entered the saloonand found the thieves in the act ot dividingtheir spoils. The men wor.i sent to SanQttentin to serve lons terms of Imprison-ment. Owing to family troubles Andrew,in 1654, one day suddenly left the city andhis niiiiiowas dropped from thu police-toll.He returned in iiyear, and, after followingvarious occupations wa« appointed a specialofficer inChinatown, He was deprived ofthat position when the special-police systemin the Chinese colon? was reorganized, andhe then became a guide for sight-seers inthat quarter. For a few years past Mac-Ken/.ie had been on the down grade andexisted on ihe charity of his former friends.Be was 67 years of age and a native of NewBrunswick.

A FEK OF 595,000.

That la What John H. Wright Will Re-ceive From the lClythe Kstate.

John H. Wright has been awarded a feeby Judge Levy for services rendered as anattorney-at-law to the late Philip A. li'jacn,who was administrator of the estate of tholate Thomas 11. lilyths.

In his written opinion the Judge statedthat the testimony showed that Wright'sservices extended over a period of five years,and that they were of an exceedingly diffi-cult nature. When Knack took charge ofBlytbe's estate he found everything in con-fusion, The character of the property couldnot be denned, and the. titles to some wereexceedingly vague. Wright was selected asthe attorney to straighten out affairs and toconduct all the litigation in which the estatewas involved, lie successfully defendedmany suits which, if they had been lost,would have loftbut little for the heirs.

lie referred to the testimony of attorneys,who valued Wright's services at $150,000.These attorneys were. 11. S. iiesics. W. 11.L,. Barnes, J. A. Waymire, S. C. Deusonand M. U. Kellogg. Other attorneys did notconsider the services so valuable, but therewas a stipulation on file signed by the- at-torneys for Florence Blyttie consenting toan allowance of $100,000.

Walked From Sonora.About 7 o'clock last evening, as thn

"Col-

ton flyer" of the Southern Pacific RailroadCompany was approaching this city, the en-gineer noticed an old woman driving threeburros along the track a short distanceahead of the train. lie warned tho womanof her danger by thn usual signals, but thastubborn burros refused to obey her com-mand, and the engineer was obliged to stopHis train. Before bringing ilto a standstill,however, one of the burros was struck by

the cowcatcher and thrown down an em-bankment striking the old woman as itrolled, and hurling her down nlso. She waspicked up by the trainmen, and ns she wasbadly bruised and shaken, she was brouehtto this city and taken to the Receiving Hos-pital. At the police station it was learnedthat her name was Elieia Escohira, and thatshe had traveled on foot from Sonora, Mcxwith her three burros, upon whose backswas packed everything she po.-sessed, insearch of her only son whom she believedresided in this city. Fortunately her in-juries were not of a serious nature.— LosAngeles Herald, Jan. Oth.

WITHOUT FRICTION.Election of a Captain in the San

Francisco Hussars.

The election in the San Francisco Hussarsof a successor to Captain C. C. Keene, whohas applied to be placed ou the retired list,passed off last evening without apparentlythe slightest friction. This election hailbeen much lussed about for sume threemonths, owing tv the meetings of a reformclub and because of two attempts to havethe civil courts to meddle with matterspurely military-one to compel the doing ofa thing which was done almost before theink on the petition for mandamus was dry,and the other to prevent the doing of a tilingwhich uo one, as a matter of fact, hadthought of doing.

Major William Cluff, Brigade Commis-sary, was the otlicer detailed to preside, andSergeant Ernst (the chief executive of tnerelormers) placed at once iv njmimitionSamuel P. IJlumenbere, a private of Ualteryi. of the hecoud Artillery,and n formerprivate. Corporal aud ex-First Lieutenantof the cavalry company. The Sergeantmade a long address. Ha referred to hiscandidate as

"not a man 10 vote forfun,' and one "amply able to sweep the

cobwebs off the armory." At this point helost the thread of his discourse, bul recov-ered his presence of uuud to draw a paperfrom his dress-coat, and read the remainderof Illsspeech, aud gave a record of his can-didate.

Sergeant Pistolesi, who is the Presidentof the reformers, at once moved toclose thenominations, but not quick enough to pre-vent Major Cluff from lirst recognizing an-other non-com, who desired to and didnominate Corporal Charles Anderson.Major duff mildly rebuked the Sergeantfor his attempt "tochoke oil nominations."Tho nomination of the Corporal was sec-onded, but belore a vote was taken he de-clined, and only one candidate was left inthe held. The non-com who made the sec-ond nomination was the only one whovoted in the negative. The successful can-didate, who was in convenient waiting, wasbasiled into the front room by the Presidentof the reformers and returned thank! forthe honor conferred upon him. The re-formers gave cheers for him, two rounds forthu il.jur and one for thtiir retiring Cap-tain, and thus the mouse was brought forthafter lha mountain's labors for some threemonths.

The civilproceedings instituted by Blum-enberg to restrain an alleged trimmer of en-li.sied men of the brigade to the iroup inorder, as claimed, to influence the election,had come to a most ridiculous end in themorning before Judge Wallace of the. Supe-rior Court. He promptly dismissed themfor lack of jurisdiction. Major John X. E.Wilson, Judge Advocate, making the motion,declining to niHke any argument on a ques-tion so sell-evident, but i.atisfying himselfand the court with citing a section of thePolitical Code, several of the rules and regu-lations governing the National Guard, andof them reading the following:

Section 103U, Political Code. The rules andregulations of lie aimy ol tin; United Stales, sofar m the same may be applicable and not incoii-M»l<nt HUH the laws of Hum Stiiie anil the rulesand regulations prescribed l>y the Commander-tn-cluer, corislliuie the rules and regulations forUju mint-illof me Mallooal Uuaid.

bectlon 878, liules aim JieEUUUous. If thetrausteis tie from one regiment or b:itlaliuu toanother In ihe same brigade, It must tie oideredby the commanding officer uf the brigade.

Section 3»0. liai.-i is as above nuy bemade upon the aptillcallou of an enli«ied man.dulyapproved by his coiiimaudlnic ollicers andby the commanding officer ot the company audregiment or battalion to wlilcli lie desires to betransferred, or without such apiillcatlou or ay-proval. Iftbe counnandliigoQicer deems alraus-ler uecessary Inthe interests of the sei vice.

The counsel for the petitioner was appar-ently ignorant of the existence of rules andregulations and attempted to make some ar-gument on what he termed "the motive" forsuch a transfer of enlisted men in this case;but the Judge cut him short and told Dim hehad Bottling to do with motives and the mili-tary regulations undoubtedly provided forthe trial by a military tribunal for an abuseof power. The Ju<l;;e Advocate announcedon behalf of Brlgadl r-Ueueral Cutting thatthe allegations of a proposed transfer werewithout loundatiun, as such a propositionInn! not been thought if,though the lawlimited Rave him the absolute power to havedone so In the Interests of tlie service. Thetruth of these assertions was obvious at theelection.

FISH AND GAME.

Biennial Keport of the Commis-sioners.

•ySturgeons Are on the Decrease— The Sea-Lion

Destructive of Fishing Interests— GamsBiid3 Imported- Killingof Deer.

The biennial report the State Board ofFish Commissioners has been published.In itliremade the followingdeclarations:

The «prlnc hip.of salmon for 1889 wanlair,us»a« ul-ii mat ol 1800.

Cattish have developed Into popularfavor, and are plentifulla mosi of the waters ofthe Slate.itwould seem stranee that the Commis-

sioner?, who are popularly supposed to havesome knowledge of game and fish, shouldhave imported carp and distributed them inthe waters of this State, when they are rec-ognized us undesirable food fish.

BTUBGBOWS DIMINISHINGYEARLY.Speaking of sturgeons, the report says

that"owing to the indiscriminate slaughter

waged upon them by Chinese fishermen theycontinue to diminish yearly. The meansadopted by Chinese for catching these fish,whose other enemies are net fishermen andthe sen-lions are also very destructive tothe Salmon, and it is safe to say that moreof the latter are cau^Ht and maimed bywhat is termed 'sturgeon hooks' than bythe Chinese or the net fi^-liurmcn or the sea-lions in the bay.".

Chinese fishermen maIce it a practice tostretch long lines generally at the mouthof river.", to which are attached numbers oflarge hooks. The salmon as they ascendfrom the bay strike against these (fraillylures which aro placed for their capture,and those Muttare fortunate to break awayin their struegles carry the marks of theminiature cuffs on their sides and bodies.The Chinese escape punishment for thissystem of catching fish under the pretensethat they are fishing for sturpeon. Muchlines can be seen at any time stretched inSan Pablo Bay, near the mouth of SonomaCreek.

THE SALMON'S ENEMY.As records sea-lions the report declares

that these animals nre a serious detrimentto the fish interests of the State, andespecially to salmon. None c.in doubt butthat they destroy large numbers of salmon;but the decrease in the salmon family can-not be altogether attributed to their ravages.

When sea-lions were much more plentifulin the bay— that is before the Chinese andItalian fishermen had begun to wet theirnets— salmon were prolific, and there wasnot a dissenting voice against the

"royal

guards," which delight to busk on the rocksat the entrance to the harbor.Itseems that the salmon family is an-

nually on the decrease and it is rather anact of injustice to the sea-lieu to attribute tohim solely the blame, which should beplaced upon the shoulders of Chinese andItalian fishermen, who use no discrimina-tion in the catching of fish when they can doso with impunity.

IMPORTED GAME BIRDS.The 92000 appropriated for the purchase

and importation of game birds proved anexpenditure of money which could havebeen devoted more profitably to fish andgame interests. The Commissioners securedout of this fund forty pairs of .Mongolianpheasant! from Oregon at Sl3 per pair, andthese were, according to re-port, distributedin the game preserves.

About 1300 Chinese quail—

a useless bird—weie also purchased in trio Mongolian

quarters of this city at the cost of $20 perhundred, according to the report. These in-significant creatures wore also, inthe majorpart, consigned to lands which are underpreserve.

The Chinese quail roost on the ground,and sportsmen who are acquainted withtheir habits do not hesitate to say that theywillsoon be exterminated The game birdsthat would, in allprobability, flourish inthisState are the Bob White and Oregon grouse.The wild turkey would be a failure.

RECOMMENDATIONS URGED.A steam launch fitted for the purnose of

hunting down the transgressors ol the fishlaws is urged as very necessary. The Gov-ernor Stiinemau was a useless and expen-sive craft, which was of no value to theCommissioners because too cumbersome forthe purpose inti-ndnl.

The Commissioners recommend that thekillingof deer be prohibited absolutely forthe next two years; also the having in pos-session the skin of any deer for the sametime. This is not a bud suggestion.

ROUGH PASSAGE.

The Clan Macpheraon Arrives FromNagasaki I\>athor-Beaten.

The British slilu Clan Miicplietson, Cap-tain Mlchie, arrived in port last evening,thlrtr-three days from Nagasaki, with 2475tons of coal. She experienced some veryrough weather. She sailed on Decemberat I), and. hail moderate mid variable win.Is,with cloudy weather, until December 19th.On that day a heavy cale sprang up fromll:e southeast to the northwest, which lastedsixteen hours. The weather was pleasantafter that until the LMtli. When in IkU-turio 41° 27' north and longitude177° 63' west a very heavy paleand a confused sea were encountered. Theship labored heavily, with water up to therails. The port forward boat was carriedaway and the port boat was thrown on thestarboard bo.it and both were smashed topieces. The piss and pia-sty were carriedaway also, and everything on deck that wasmoveHble was washed away. The cargoshifted, which gave the ship a heavy list tostarboard, and all the wnati ports were car-ried away, the \u0084tarbi>ard rail being underwater for twenty-four hours. On the 25ththe ship was still fullof water and strainingbndly.

The crew were put to work trimming thncoal, and that nieht the vessel squared awaybefore the wind and had very quod weatherto port
