The benefit at the Bell Theatre for the relief of Mrs. Ella' Birch, who was so sorely bereaved in the shocking death of her youns son and only tup- port, "Lester, took place this afternoon and proved a pronounced success.

The financial, proceeds of the venture can not, at this writing, be an-1 nounced, bceause returns have not, as yet, been received for all the tickets sold, many of them having been disposed "of to purchasers who were not present at any of the performances given this afternoon. It Is expected, however, that the proceeds will not fall short of $200. This showing Is to be credited to the energetic efforts of the Bell Amusement Company, owners of the Bell Theatre, who sold all' the tickets and who also gave to the cause without a cent of recompense, the use of the house, the lighting of the same and the services of the musicians and perform- era and, In fact, those of every attar he of the Bell. Indeed, the corporation could not have done any more to aid in a deserving cause, had the beneficiary been allied to them by the ties of dred. At the same time, there was a liberal response on part of the public.

People went" to the theatre from all sections of the city. They were. In the main, ladies and children, but in not few Instants, business men took a few minutes off from the cares of their calling to show the interest they took In the work, of charity. The attendance was so large that the program had to be repeated several times, a concession which was granted "by the management with characteristic generosity. The same excellent program which was rendered this afternoon, will be rendered tonight and the rest of the week.

A very attractive feature of the afternoon was the selling of pink boutonnieres to gentlemen members of the audience by the lady performers, all of whom were attractively attired. The sellers were Miss Eunice Gilman. late of the Tlvoli; Miss Jennie Aradell, illustrated songstress; Miss Edith Fletcher, soubrette, and Miss Snowie Maybell. The pinks were furnished by the Bell Amusement Company and the-proceeds of the sale will go' to the Birch fund. Messrs.

E. A. Homan, A. S. and Julius Cohn and Sam Harris, all energetic members of the Bell, Amusement Company, were In attendance and did everything they could to make the patrons comfortable and the benefit a great success.

Policeman Jack Gardiner, who was off duty, donated his services and acted as assistant doorkeeper to Jimmy Brennan. COL. LUBELSKI'S LIBERALITY. As foreshadowed In these columns during the past few days, the Novelty Theater, the little gem place of amusement on Broadway, near Twelfth street, which is owned by Cel. Tony Lubelski, will bring the series cf benefits for the Birch fund to a close by two grand matlneee next Friday afternoon, April 8.

Col 1 Lubelski has been away from the city for several days past, otherwise his original purpose of giving benefit- per-: formances this week wouTa have been carried out. The Colonei appreciates the worthiness of the cause in this instance and has, accordingly, decided to do all he can to swen tne iuna, mougn at a later date than he could have hoped for. Nothing, however, will be left undone to make the performances an unequivocal success. The sale of tickets will be pushed to the utmost and the performers on the stage will be among the finest who have ever appeared here, among them being some of the most rioted in the Orpheum. circuit.

The price of tickets, however, wiil be only ten cents. DR. CHADDOCK DEAD. BERKELEY, April 1. Dr.

Judge Melvin after hearing the evidence said Dagner was guilty and told Luttrell that if he so wished it, he would send him to jail.

The email safe and its contents were blown to atoms and the large safe was not opened sufficiently to allow of the highwaymen getting at the plunder That is according to the statement or Frank Rockwell, express guard, who was "deadheading" through on the car that was attacked and who has been in charge of the car and safe at Copley ever since. He was the man who attempted to shoot the masked men. after they had killed -O'Neill, being prevented by the snapping of his gun instead of Couord. O'Neill's assistant, as at first reported. Rockwell says the money is -still in the big safe.

He and Route Agent Carpenter; who arrived here this morning frpn Sacramento, have been working all' day to get the valuables from the partially wrecked safe. Rockwell savs that the only money the bandits could 'possibly have, secured consisted of three dollars in his vest that hung in the car, and that: amount may have been blown out' as 4he vest was torn into shreds by th explosion. Railroad Detectives-Ahern and NeiL are here from Sacramento working on the case. The local officers are still out. I i One of the best clews of 'the day comes from Tom Harrison, of Quartz Hill, who says that at 3 o'clock this morning three men passed his home, which is nine miles cast of where the bandits left the lone engine at 11 o'clock.

The strangers, he were walking east. i Officers are scouring the country in -search of the robbers. I i ckvrs a winnw. SAN FBANCISCO. April' 1.

Flmple, assistant commissioner in the General Land Office of the United States, testified in the Hyde-Dimond lava's fraud case He is a witness for the prosecution, but was called under protest by the attorneys for the defense.

He stated that about fifty-three forest reservations, comprising about 2,000,000 acres, had been created under the act of March 30, 1838. He said that probably 1,000 se. lectors of these lajids had appeared by attorney. Attorney McEnerney offered in evidence an abstract of title of a deed of land recorded in Oregon. "This deed." he said, "was from the State of Oregon to A.

S. Baldwin, and wife to Frederick A. Hyde and thence to the Government of the1 United States. It is properly certified by the County Recorder of Oregon." Attorney Heney objected. He adr mitted that this paper had been accepted as a record, but added that when frauds were alleged the land office suspended ail such documents.

Commissioner Heacock ruled that the paper might be offered subject to objection by the prosecution. M. M. McLane, clefk of the Land Office, was ealled to identify the document. IS ALL IN.

ATTORNEYS WILL ARGUE CLAIMS OF CLIENTS IN THE MORNING. The taking of testimony in the Tobin divorce case was finished at a late session of the court last night and the arguments will go on tomorrow morning. Owing to the fact that today was calendar day the different departments of the Superior Court the case had to be continued and it was thought best to conclude the taking of the testimony and leave nothing but the arguments to be presented. Tobin took the stand intis own defense and told his story as to how he happens to be in the predicament of having two women who claim him as husband. He said that he met his first so-called wife while serving as coachman in the Moody home at Burlinsame.

She was a maid there. He says that he left his happy home because she threatened to shoot him it he aid not wun ner ana live with her as her He 6ays, however, that they were never married. She told him that she had had two "husbands and that were too hard to get rid of and she would not marry again. She wanted to be Mrs. Tobin.

all intents and purposes, and to this end made him leave bis Burlingame place and come with her to San Francisco. They afterwards took positions as man and wife. While it is not denied by Tobin's attorney that they lived together as man and wife and aoueared as such before the world, it is stated that there Is a'' great difference between toe marriage" state and as was occupied by the pair. there was anything to show that a contract had been entered into 'their assuming marriage relation would be evidence tending to support tne claim; but to argue that because they lived together they were married is the weak part of Mrs. Tobin's armor which her husband's attorney hopes to puncture.

Tobin married his second wife without telling her anything abouthis first experience, and it was- not until the first wife was hammering at the door of wife No 2 that the explanation was made. He had mentioned the fact that he had kept, company with some woman or other, but never Intimated what there was be hind it all. Attorney Peter J. Crosby for the woman and W. L.

Hill for Tobinwill argue the matter in the morning. EMERYVILLE, April 1. The results of today's races were as follows: FIRST RACE. (Five and a Half Furlongs.) Rustic Girl (Roach). 5 to 2..
