This Mule Is Touffh. A correspondent with the Tibet mission tells a mule story: "Mules, apparently, do not die from any cause, and this mission has again proved the extreme hardihood of these animals. When the mission first crossed the Jelap-la'a mule slipped In the dusk and fell into the lake at the bottom of pass. It was thought to be drowned. Next morning a convoy found it with its nose just above the ice, the rest of its body literally frozen -in.

Pickaxes were brought and the animal -was dug out. It is now' working as dancing of and Emerson never went unrewarded with hearty handclaps. So clever was the work of the principals that it would have made the show a success without the chorus. This Is not insinuating that the ensemble was impaired by the chorus, nor is it saying that the ensemble would not have been improved by a better chorus. "Fiddle Dee Dee" is on for two more performances.

The bcow schooner Plow Boy, while sailing down the bay with a load of lumber, came to an anchorage off Goat Island waiting for a berth to land at. She dragged her anchor, which became fouled with the Western Union Telegraph Company's cable.

After a long parley between the manager of the telegraph company and the captain of the schooner the captain finally consented to his anchor chain in deference to the proposition of the telegraph company. The value of the lost anchor amounted to about The cutting and replacing of the cable would have cost the company an enormous sum. Captain A. L. Larson was in command.

The vessel has a speed of 11 miles. Her cost was $225,000. On May 1 she will leave for Koggiung with a general cargo of cannery supplies. Fhe will be the last of the Alaska Canning Company's vessels to sail to the north. The new steamer Nushagak made her trial trip yesterday.

It was euccessful. She is owned by the Alaska Packing Association. About ijixty people enjoyed the trip around the bay, the boat steaming nearly up to Vallejo before she started on her home trip. Refreshments were supplied with a liberal hand. Amons those on board were President H.

SATURDAY. APRIL 23. REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS. Among the passengers on the steamship America Maru, which arrived yesterday, was a party of distinguished Japanese Government representatives, who have been sent to this country and Europe on various missions. The more prominent of the visitors is Viscount N.

Matsudaira, a member of the Peers. He is on his way to The Hague, but he declines to state the real purpose of his visit to that city. Another of the party is Djo Kawamura, director. of the Civil and Criminal Bureau of the Japanese Department of Justice, who is to make a tour of this country for the purpose of gathering data regarding penal institutions on this side of the Pacific. Accompanying Kawamura is K.

Kanokogi, chief of the Japanese Communication Bureau of and T. Yaina Guchi, representing the Government and the tea exporters of Tokio. In discussing the war in the Far East Viscount Matsudaira said last evening that the people of the United States receiving more news from the scenes of battle than the natives of the Island empire. He added: Though the Japanese people have been endeavoring in every way to place themselves on a footing witW other and greater nations, and have moceeded In many I must candidly conftss that they have not yet shown the enterprise of the American and English people in the getting of news of their own war and giving it fresh to their own people. During my short stay in Honolulu and since my arrivai here, this morning.

I have read more news about tho war than I abie to obtain In a whole week in Tokio. I have heard considerable comment in our country and here regarding: the lateness of the arrival from the front of news concerning the. movements of our navies and armies. You generally get your first tips regarding battle? through KusMan sources, and confirmation comes by way of Tokio. This I attribute to the fact that the news from our forces has to be brought a long- distance by our vessels, which oftentimes have to take a roundabout course to eliminate all danger of encounter with one of the foe's craft, and the news from the Russian side is simply censored and telegraphed direct to St.

Petersburg. When I left Tokio the foreign correspondents were complaining to the Government officials for not permitting them to move nearer the front. I was Informed, however, that the newspaper men would soon be given the long looked for permission, and that thereafter they' would not be interfered with. The Italian cruiser Liguria, which arrived in port on Saturday, was open to visitors yesterday. The majority of these goinff on board went out from Crowley's boathouse, foot of street.

Crowlcy statea that his boats carried out fully 10C0 people. Among the passengers of note were Sydney Fulcher, manager of the China Traders' Insurance Company; G. Gansloser, a prominent merchant of Singapore; N. Matsudaira, member of peers; J. Kawamura, director of civil and criminal bureau in the Department of Justice, and K.

Kanokoji of Formosa. There -were also fourteen sprightly Geisha girls, in charge of T. Gamaguchi. who will go to St. Louis to entrance the visitors to the Exposition with their graceful dancing and almond-shaped eyes.

They were a fetching looking lot and attracted attention as they gayly scrambled on the deck in their brilliant Oriental costumes. A company of Japanese acrobats of all sizes, ages and shapes helped to enliven the life on shipboard on the way across. They go to Glen Island Park, New York. James W. Price had them in charge.

Following is the list of 'passengers: From W. W. Colborne, Mrs. W. W.

G. Gilbert. Crowds Visit I.iprurin. I On April 22 they sighted a three-masted ship bound in an opposite direction. This was in latitude 34 3 N.

and longitude 133 33 W. I She brought a small cargo consisting of 300 tons for this port, 134 tons destined for Eastern States and 13 tons in transit to Central America. An April 17, at 4:30 p. they spoke the steamship Ventura in latitude 25 18 N. and longitude 151 48 W.

On April 20 they saw a big steamer, which they supposed to be the Korea. This was in latitude 27 39 N. and longitude 147 39 W. The.Toyo Kisen Kaisha Company's steamer America Maru came into port yesterday morning, 17 days from Yokohama. After quarantine inspection she steamed around to Mission Bay, where she came to anchorage.

She was compelled to do this because there would be no berth for her at the Paciflc Mail Steamship Company's dock until the Gaelic departs to-morrow. The tug Sea King brought the passengers ashore and landed them on the wharf at 2:30 p. m. The America Maru on arrival in Japan on her last trip from here, was turned over- to the Japanese Government to be used in case of need as a transport ship. She was laid up awaiting war developments, but no alterations were made on her.

The Government concluded in April that it had no use for her, so she was. released and restored' to her original owners, who immediately put her back on her own route. Her sister ships, the Hongkong Maru and the Nippon Maru are still in the service of the Japanese Government. Captain Woodus Greene reports that during the voyage they experienced changeable gales and rough seas and the ship rolled heavily. "Fiddle Dee Dee" is the most absurd, ergo the most popular, of the Weber Fields creations.

It was the first of them presented in San Francisco, and after a long run and a brief intermission it was restored. to. the same stage and held it for six weeks. The same principals who presented it then, two years ago, reappeared in it last night at the Grand Opera House, and -the way in which it was received by an audience that left room only indicated that it could again attract paying business for a month or more. All the original "gags" and most of the original musical 'numbers were repeated, and they were rewarded" with old-time laughter and plaudits.

The three comedians, Kolb, Dill and Bernard, carried the bulk of the honors, of course, but the scenes in which Amber and Blake were the sole participants got rapturous encores, and the Slgnor Abramoff. operatic basso, is one of the new offerings for the week and he received abundant applause. His three selections were well rendered and his voice was in excellent condition. The Four Mortons present a new sketch. They are as funny as ever.

Some of their best work they repeat and the act is excellent. Ethel Levey (Mrs. George M. Cohan) makes a- hit as a singing and dancing comedienne. She was encored several times and her work had merit.

Wilfred Clarke and Company present an adaptation from the German in the piece "In the Biograph." The sketch abounds in mirth and life. Mile. Amoros, the trapeze performer, assisted by Mile. Charlotte, commences her second week and the motion pictures of "Faust" conclude the show. The show that opened yesterday afternoon at the Orpheum was pronounced thorough, both in point of amusement and in talent, by the large audience in attendance.

The new acts are all good and the holdovers have been changed so that the entertainment is fresh from start to Lew Sully appears on the boards and sustains his old-time popularity. His songs are clever and every portion of his wit brings a hearty laugh. He earns and holds the title: "President of the Laugh Trust." La Petite Adelaide is a dayity dancer and her grace and originality bring much favor for her. She is lately from the Shaftesbury Theater, London. Tony Wilson and Heloise are on the bills as originators of the "tramplin bar act." They gave all that was expected of them and offered some new features.

The event of the production in local eyes was the debut of Miss Beatriz Bronte, who left here but a short time ago as a subordinate in "The Princess Chic" and returns now in the name, role of "A Girl From Dixie." Miss Bronte is the daughter of the well known operatic tenor, Fernando. Michelena, and was until her departure from here his pupil. She was warmly welcomed home by a large contingent of friends and got posies galore. The young singer was very evidently, and naturally, 'afflicted with nervousness last night, but showed a large gain in experience in spite of that. Her voice has rounded out, and she has gained in poise, but has yet considerable need of repose, and care in enunciation.

She makes a stunningly pretty picture of Kitty Calvert, the Dixie girl, and has some effective songs that were heartily applauded. Essie Lyons does a very clever bit of character work as a stammering girl, and sings with much charm and ease. Another'good voice is Charles H. Bowers', that is only discovered in the last act. Mr.

Bowers is the hero, In real heroic style. M. Don is seen in a "Cherman" part as Ludwig Regenborgen, Kitty Calvert's stepfather. He is rapturously funny, and in a piano- specialty completely convulsed the house. Thomas J.

Keosh has one moment to convince the audience that he is an actor, and he does it. Then there is Clifford Leigh, by no means least, In an elaborately funny picture of an English Lord, and Charles K. French as a clever Jack Randolph. There are plenty of good songs distributed among the cast and the concerted numbers are conspicuous for the spirit and ease with which they are sung. BLANCHE PARTINGTON.

More like a high school frolic than anything else that I can think of is "A Girl from Dixie," presented here for the first time last night at the California Theater. The onus of description is left to the audience, but the piece is presumably a musical comedy, with libretto by harry B. Smith and lyrics and musical setting by every one else. I fancy the libretto is not new. It is at any rate of the brightness so far as dialogue of the earlier Smith "books." One is even tempted to quote some of its many temptation has been far from one of late in the musical comedy field.

As to plot, the piece is' impeccably obvious, if pleasant. Again, as to its figures, the characters, though familiar, have been oddly reshuffled; the Incidents also, to their disadvantage. In the last act only, for example, do the four excellent comedians with which the piece is furnished get a fair chance show their mettle. The first act takes place in a country school. The second act takes place in another or rather college.

The third takes place in a school girl's, or rather college girl's, drawing-room. And like a high school jinks, as before said, is naively, and even charmingly, the effect of the whole production. The performance is quite In keeping. With the exception of the tremendously funny scene between the four comedians in the last act, where the fortunehuhting English Lord brings along his solicitor to arrange about the marriage settlements to be made upon him by the girl from Dixie, the piece never becomes grown-up musical comedy. It is short-frocked in the first act, anklelength in the second, and in the finale only adult comedy.

But piece and performance have vim, freshness, naivete. The voices are excellent, the girls are pretty and the aforementioned littleused comedians all good. Victor Herbert, Cole and Johnson and a round dozen or so besides have been in at the music and have furnished several good if unrelated numbers. The scenic setting has not been much depended upon in the reckoning, neither the costumes, and there is a general happy-go-luckiness of the stage management. But the piece was thoroughly enjoyed last night in spite of everything frantically In places.
