ANOTHER ONE.
Officer Vidal Secures the Presence
■of a Suspicious Stranger
John Fultz was arrested by
Officer Vidal last night at the
Southern Pacific depot on the
charge of being a suspicious char-
acter. He was arrested on descrip-
tion furnished by Merchant Police
Reynolds as being the partner of
the supposed burglar Elwood
arrested by himself Tuesday
night. The appearance of Fultz
tallies very closely with Elwood’s
partner and Mr. Reynolds thinks
he has the right man.
On Tuesday night the suspicious
prowlers who were discovered
back of Mr. H. Fahlbusch’s
tailor store on Houston street
were found to have bored
an inch hole in the back door
of Schmerbeck’s sporting goods
store adjoining and an inch and a
quarter boring bit was found out-
side the door yesterday afternoon.
Them were four men on this job
Mr.Fahlbusch saysand they made
two visits. He can positively iden-
tify at least one of them he says.
Tavary’s Good-Bye.
The Tavary Opera company
■closed its engagement in this city
yesterday with the presentation of
Verdi’s “Trovatore” to a good mati-
nee attendance and Bizet’s “Car-
men” at night the latter to a rather
light house.
In “Trovatore” Mr. Wm. Steph-
ens sang the role of “Manrico” the
lover of “Leonora” Miss Lichter
while the role of the count was
well carried by Mr. Max Eugene.
Miss Bella Tomlins took the Gyp-
sy role of ‘ Azucena.”
In “Carmen” Miss Tavary as-
sumed the role of “Michaela” very
acceptably while the more promi-
nent part of “Carmen” was well
taken by Mme. Theo. Dorre. Max
Eugene took the part of the Torea-
dor “Escam illo” while Payne
Clark sang the role of “Jose.”
The different characters were
well assigned Miss Theo. Dorre be-
ing particular pleasing.
Attempt at Burglary.
An attempt was made to burg-
larize the cutlery store of Robert
Schmerbeck at No. 226 East Hous-
ton street Monday night. H. Fahl-
busch a tailor next door heard a
peculiar noise in the rear of his
place and on going out saw a man
run away in the dark. He discov-
ered that a large hole had been
bored in the rear door of Mr.
Schmerbeck’s ' store and found
the bit in the hole.

DOWNED THE OFFICER.
A Party of Italian Miners Celebrate
Their Saint’s Day.
A first class free-for-all fight took
place last night in the Mutualista
society’s hall on Washington
square where an Italian ball was
in progress which was given by
a lot of Italian coal miners
in honor of St. Barbara the
patroness and protectress of all
miners whose day fell yesterday
in the Catholic church calender.
The row grew out of a drunken
quarrel and Officer Beck was called
by a messenger who said a man
was beating a woman. When he
arrived the women were pil-
ing out down the stairways
and some men wore trying to
pull them back. The officers then
found about a dozen men on top
of Tom Trollo beating him. When
Beck tried to pull them off he was
assailed his club taken from him
and all piled on him one man
striking him on the head with a
sixshooter while another nearly
broke his leg with a blow from a
chair. Ina few seconds Beck secured
assistance from another Italian
and then Officers Woenig and Fos-
ter came in and beat the crowd of
half savage minors back and ar-
rests were made as follows: F. and
D. Corsi A. Barba Z. Dominico
Antonio Farnacaro A. Saltillo P.
Persia and Tomas Troilo for fight-
ing and Joe Bartetti for being
drunk and disorderly and for in-
terfering with an officer.
The defendants were arraigned
before the recorder this morning
but gained a continuance to Mon-
day next to secure services of a
lawyer.
It is said the ball was a green
ribbon affair and bad a political
anti-administration aspect.
Messrs. Phil P. Campbell M. A.
Swan and A. Millett arrived in
the city this morning on their way
to Aransas Pass. It is said they
are interested in deepwater.
