High Kickers \u25a0

Last evenine the loug-anticioat«>d bur-lesqua of "Borneo and Juliet" was pre-st-ntvd by the members of the San Fran-cisco Verein at their clubrooius ou butterstreet. .

It was received by nearly GfiO guests withthe greatest applause. The labor of elaboratinc the idea had been enormous, muchcredit resting with Mr. Ben Arnlmld amongother leaders, but it was felt that the resultpaid for all.

A funnily worded programme added muchto the information of tne audience, whichwas requested to observe:

First— ilie insomnia «l the male adults duringthe ballet.

Second— That tbe patrol wagon at the door Isespecial!] reserved for the accomodat.'on ol un-fot tuisate actors.

Third—Thai the enhanced price of eggs hasuotiilnjcto do with to-nlphis performance.Fourth— That we sought to obtain Mr.bhakes-

peare'a permission to iiixluce this travesty, butnot rinding the sjeailemaa at Lome (lie was at aprize-fight) we nevertheless sußered its pro-duction and we reg«et to say so will the audi-ence.

Fifth—That Ifthe audience Is displeased withthe acting our expectittious have b«eu realized.l'eopie attendtug amateur rerforinauces do notcome to be amused; they are tliei for anotherpurpose, that of couUrmuiE llicuniversal opinionrelative to amateur actors, •What loo!" thesemortals be."

Some idea of lie- action may be best gath-ered from the following

AMUSING ARGUMENT:The two chief families id Verona were the rlcli

Capulets and Hie Montague*. Mm. Montaguehad ufiended Mrs. t'.iiMiit-i by sayla? that the[Ormei woieapiusti sacque when In reality Itwas a sealskin, and ever siDC* this incautious re-mark Mrs. Capuler, wuo had veiy sharp features,always cut Mrs. Moulapuo wkeaover they met.So deadly was the euruitv between them ibai Itextended to followers and rctalaera on bothside;-. Insomuch that a Capulet could not meet aMontague without shouting "Rats" or oilier likecolloquialisms peculiar to that degenerate a^e.<>a! Lord Laiulel gate a great read to whichmany Dottles were invited, and the ouly expenseincurred by the guests was a nominal turncliatped foi hai-e)iecK«. To tub feast ltouieoand cut to went masked. hnmeo was sud-denly mi tick with «he beauiy of a I dv whom hegreatly raised, He was overheard by Tybalt, asicphew ot Capnlei, who knew Romeo by hisvoice which was of the "bury tone" variety.'lybalt was a politician, and totuither his politl-cal ampliations -e\i a saloon, h \u25a0 raxed exceed-luEly and would have struck Borneo, but liesuddenly changed hi« ;\u25a0 md lor he rememberedthat Romeo was the vi:..in[ioa lightweisht ofVerona.

Komeo afterward discovered that the ladywhose tdvl'-ss beauiy be was so much struckwittrwas Juliet, uebtec aud heir t(. tii- LordCapulet. He h:iduukuowiagly engaged his heattto tils foe. Juliet was likewise

"mashed" onliomy.Itbeing midnight, Borneo, after leaving thebanquet, returned to the abode of his adorea.

aud, at;cr climbing the wall aud polsoatait mec \u25a0,- with abottle of hair-restorer, was ready tolisten to Juliet. &he now. appeared above at awli'dow. She was e.\<)ut»lte!y dic-sed this ui£Ut.for she bad to en^aue a new cooJc that day andhad, of course, to make a «ood Impression. Shenow shouts, "OH, Kotueo.. Komeo, wherefore artthou Romeo?" tie replies io the language oltliocuuiiler, "1i:ive itup, Jule, I'm not iv it ouconundium>." Koneo then told Her of his liveaud called uti the moon, which the sceulc artistbad carefully poitr.iyed, to bear witness to histiotl). The practical Juliet enjoins nun not toswear by the evanei light of tlie moon, butiall;er l»y electric light,for her father owned alarge • eti ie plant and was solid with the lioaidof risors. As a further proof or h:s lovelieconsened to eat two amateur doughnuts madaby the lovelyJuliet. That settled It,Borneo wasdoomed, f«i Juliet consented to marry him atonce, or, ifneed be, sooner.

v> eil, they decided to get Friar Lawrence tomarry them, aud iftie wuiildnot they would litrea tugboat and do things Iv n sea«attooal way.Friar Lawr<nee agreed, bowever, to marrythem, ulnth was accurdluuly done.

That sain day reutto aod Heave le, friendsot Borneo, met a party of C'apulets with Tybaltat tiit-lrhead. Mercuno calls Tybalt an Assem-Dlynui), which so -nntges the 'latter ihat theynuht and Mercutto receives a deata wound, fullsgiacefully, as becomes a Montague, leairungestils i-eckwear, which baa become dlsarraoged Inthe iiit-iee. and liien dies. Hie tragedy wouldDe incomplete without a few more deaths bolioiueo next kills Tybalt. Fur this oßeuse he It1•;i:.i>iifdto OaKl&ud, a suburb of Veiona, whichiJomeo rightly declares "is worse than death."

The rest of the play followed the originalclosely, the fatal delay of Friar Lawrence'smessage to B >raeo being attributed to thedijatorincss of a messenger boy, "trueto theinstincts of his class aud the rules of hissociety."

a A BALLET DCVJBBSIOXDuring the Cist act a grand ballet was

presented by Hie following (gentlemen)stars: .'\u25a0\u25a0 L<-j;^ieri, premiere danseiiaoof the Te.itro d^Ha >< ala, Milano, who per-foruied the celebrated pizzicato dance..vi:i.c. : -..tri is undoubtedly the greatestdanseuse of her Hiie.

ana without a hitch, and received great ap-Dlauae. The ballet v.as particularly wellanpluuded, receiving two or three encore*.Th« costumes of ail were very pretty anthoroughly in harmony with the occasionauii each other.

After the performance dancing was la-du!z«d in under the direction of Mr. BenArniiold until early morning, the only in-terruption being for the service cf refresh-ments.

The chorus of forty voices and orchestraof twenty pieces aided greatly in the successof the entertainment.

PHILATELIC GEMS SOLD.Hiisk IJuymg \u0084t the First Grand Auction

bale."Fellow-philatelists,'.' feelingly observed

"William .SelUchopu, as he rose to his feet,"1am gratified to see that the cream of theBan Francisco Philatelic Union has turned

tit to the first auction sale of philatelicgems ever attempted on the Pacific Coast.Let the sale begin."

And immediately the sale began and waapursued with great vigor by the assembledphilatelists, who bold in one hand a cat-alogue of .'{B4 lots of philatelic gems, ar-ranged by Mr. SeHschofF. and a lead pencilin the other, with which they checked offtheir purchases.

For the benefit of those who are notposted itmay be well to state that a phila-telic gem is a postage stamp— time. Inkandtravel stained, and, perhaps, torn at thecorner, but very rare and therefore val-uable.

A il.ilatelist is a man who begs or buysthese gems, pastes them in a largo bookwith gummed leaves and looks nt themwhen sad nt heart. ItIs said to make himfeel much better.

There arc about thirty philatelists, realrabid ones, in the city, and the majority.ofthem were present at the first auction galeof shop- worn postage stamps and baggyenvelnMS, which took place last night at102 O'Farrell street. Auctioneer George A.Wast; ' urn presided, and from 7 until 11o'clock disposed of over $1500 worth of newand second-hand philatelic gems from allquarters of the globe. The buyers in theiu:Uu were young men, and postage stampsis their greatest fault. Some of them alreadypossess as much as f.VXX) worth of slightlydamaged, but still extremely rare gems,and an

nuunrara for more.One of the heaviest purchasers was W. A.

11. Conner, wno makes a specialty of Aus-tralian colony postage. He is what may betermed a philatelic-Kern broker, as most ofMs buys last Light were 'for other parties.He secured several hundred dollars' worth.

lie highest price paid for a single Ktaiuuwas 512 05. Ten United • States 12-ccntstamps of the vintage of IS'^ m*,r6 knockedtitiwpit.All.btUtcJaoyi^wlf•

Another earnest philatelist is V.. A. 11.Conner, who is nn omnibus collector, Hetakes everything and anything he can get inthe way of ccujs, and already has over 10,000varieties. His collection, which was ma-terially increased last night, is valued at$9090, In a fevr days Mr. Conner willstartmi. th on a stamp-swapping tour to be goneseveral weeks.

Still another was Frank Rot-nig, super-in endentof the Western Pbilate ie Uuion'sf-x liance department In this c:iy. He gath*ers only Doited State* ami Uii'ish colonyneius and has a very line collection,

X <iesvoet, Sellschopp's partner, has aphilatelic album, and the latter re-

joices In the tine^t old German States el-lection on the coast. Itis held in a $.vn>oestimation.

Among the other purchasers were J. N.Luff, J. 11. Marking 0. F. Sylvester. FredKordt and W. H. Hollis. The Crackers arealso remembered with the philatelists, anddabble more or less in gems. W. 11. Crockerowns one of the rinusc albums in town, andthe collection is said to be worth all of$30001 Itcomprises all varieties of stampsand envelopes.

The lHr^r»t salt's were among the UnitedStates serus and foreign stamps from coun-tries beuinuius with VS.. What peculiarcharm an

•V gem has for the philatelist is

not known, but lor some reason the biddingou these was brisk. As a rule the gemsbrought 15 cunts to Si advance on the re-serve price, but in some instances they wereso at 10 per cent below the catalogue fig-ure. South American gems wore inpoordetcaml, and there were no bid* at all forUse. Chilean variety, hied shows commend-able loyalty on the part of the philatelist.

The sale was a grand success, and thepurchasers went home much pleased withtheir newly acquired treasures.

THE SEWERAGE &UESTICN.A S»Kgr.iiuii From the Association of

Civil Knp.iircis.

The California Association of CivilEn-gineer* having learned that it is the Inten-tion of the Hoard ol Supervisors to appointa commission of engineers to devise a newsewer system for the. city (but prior theretoto appoint a member of the profession tocollect the necessary data), have passed aresolution to the .ffect that it would be forthe best intends of the city to appoint thecommission first, so that the data could becollected under its direction. They arguethat the commission should be the solejudges as to the necessary preliminary sur-veys and tl>at they would insure due econ*omy in thai work. The resolution alsosays that their appointment vow ueed notlead to any great expense, as their compen-sation can be made nominal untilsufficientdata have been collected to justify the com-mencement of active work.

The resolution has been engrossed andsent to the Board of Supervisors.

A CARD!We, the employes of C. Curtin, take this method of publicly

condemning the acts of an organization known as the Dry-Goods Clerks' Association, whereby, on transparencies carriedby them, they brand our respected employer as "a slave-driver," from which itis to be inferred that we are slaves. Wemost emphatically deny the assertion, and wish to inform thesaid association that we are not slaves, but free American citi-zens, capable of attending to our own business without anyinterference from them; fully satisfied with our present posi-tions and hours of. labor, which are the same as all otherhouses, except Saturday night, when the store is kept openuntil 10 P. M., as a matfer of accommodation to our manypatrons.

We ask the intelligent public to investigate for themselvesand see if Mr.Curtin, during a business career of thirty-twoyears in this city, has done anything to merit the persecutionthat is now being waged against him unjustly by thisassociation.
