KODAKED COREANS How We Impress Them and They Us. A PICTURESQUE BAND HERE. » "Craps" and Cigarettes Will Mingle With Their Memories of a Good Time in America. The Imperial Corean Band, which was present at the opening of the Chicago World's Fair, is on its way home again and arrived in this city 00 Sunday night Their treattneut since their aavent in this country has been one loug succession of courtesies, and they will return to Corea not only deligUted with all they have seen and heard, but perfectly im- pressed with the fact that the American "barbarian," from the Pacific Coast to the East, is tho most polite, thoughtful and coiisijeratfi host they have ever net. As a fitting wind-up to the attention they have received durina their stay the delegation of ten musicians was met at Sacramento, by Owen Ernest Jones, agent for the Chicago and Northwestern Rail- way, who escorted them to this city and lodged them safely at a hotel. The ten royal musicians are accompanied toy an Interpreter named Am Xl Sun, sec- retary of his Imperial C»reau Majesty and Commissioner to the World's fair, lie came with the party West.'he said, "just to see Them off, you knuw, and then go back to Chicago." He studied English In the American church at Yokohama for only two months, but he is very bright and understands what is said to biro for the most Dart. lie. has left twenty-live Coreans in Chicago, most of whom aie wnll-tc-do farmers In their own country, and lie is naturally anx- ious to get back to them. Of the musicians one plays the piano and another the flute in addition to their native instruments. They are very sorry to have to return so soon, but they could not get further leave from the Emperor, and being part ci his band are, obliged to go back. Through Am Xi Sun they expressed themselves as being astonished and de- lighted at everything they had seen iv America. The knowledge that they have acquired is not altogether unmixed with evil, for one of the hand at least has learned to "shout cr.ip>" in Illinois, and the first thing they asked for on Monday morning was a bottle of whisky. There was a fancy cutzlass decanter labeled "Gilt Ed^e Whisky," and they would have this or no other. It was accordingly filled up aud they returned their thanks, but not the bottle, whig> the proprietor of the hotel good-naturedly allowed them to keep and which they will csrry back to Cores, They are the first Coreans who have ever visited the United States, and it will be remembered that they positively refused to be photographed when they arrived here on the way to the World's Fair. They are nroud of having played at the ope'iing of the fair, still prouder at having specially performed for President Cleve- land, aud proudest of all at havius been personally thanked by the President for tlißir mu<ic and their visit The Call presents a picture of the musicians taken yesterday in the back yard of the hotel. At first the subjects positively refused to be photographed, but were finally persuaded by Mr. Wal- dron on promises that they should havo copies given to them to take back to Corea and show their friends. Their dresses are as peculiar as they are difficult to describe. The headdress con- sists of three pieces. First, there is a band of the finest network, mdru delicatn than mosquito netting, and when woven resembling the most minute wlrework Imaginable. This is surmounted by a sort of "sl.ako" of the same material, which is always worn in the house and comes well down on the back of tlie bead. In front there is a Kind of half step. Over this again is worn the stiff broad-brimmed gauze hat which is sh^wn In tie picture. It is very light and fastened under the chin with a black silk ribbon. The hair is glossy black in me young men and pulled up behind, very much in the same fashion as American women wear It, and fastened In a knotted braid on the ciown. It is confined either with a tortoise- shell brooch or a large pearl. In the house the men wear a white jacket with large 6leev>'s, an undergarment which crosses like a scarf about the throat, and immense bagty Persian trousers of the same mate- rial. These are confined at the ankles with cord;, and the footwear and snoea are nearly similar to the Chinese, stockings and slippers so familiar to San Francis- cans. Around the waist a rope of blue silk is worn, and from It are suspended the purse, the tobacco-pouch and other articles. The material of the wbole dress seems to be a creamy texture, somethinj between merino and silk. The overdress Is sleeveless and edged generally with p-ile-bltie silk about three in'liei wide. White and blue and a purpla mauve ars evidently their favorite colors. They are incessant cigarette smokers ana have kindly taken to American brands, using a copper or bra?s mouthpiece holder about as long as an ordinary penholder. They slmve the cheeks, but grow a mustache and Imperial, also cultivating a pointed tultof hair on the chin. Tliey were not long in the house before the proprietor f'juuti out that they were Free Masons of some sort. It is evident that they possess some of the mysteries of the craft in a ru<i» way, dating back thousands of years perhaps, though their masonry is possibly crude. Their headdress is part of their religion and has a significance down to the buttons en the side of the inside hat. While the signatures of the band were readily obtained, the Interpreter positively refused to write the name of the .Emperor, which, it appears, is held sacred, and to write which would be a crime. The name of the unaerdress is "wane nauch poo rimai." In person they are much larger and bigger-framed than tne average Chinaman or Japanese. They are apparently brighter also, and converse rapidly and pleasantly with each other without any of the noise and guttural clatter that accompanies Chi- nese conversation. They carry with them a pale, yellow, dried root, which is a little bitter and which they chew much like an American girl does cum or slippery elm. It is sup. posed to cure colds. To outsiders they are polite, but possess the peculiar stoical features of all Mon- golians and will sit by the bour without moving a muscle. During the six days of their stay here the ( oreans will endeavor to see all they can of the city. Yesterday they kept close to the bouse, resting and smoking in the parlor. They find themselves the object of so much curiosity when they go out that it is unpleasant for them; but their stay in Chicago has made them used to crowd", and they mind the white, man'i scrutiny le«« now than when they first came here. Their visit will doubtless be productive of mutual good to the two countries, for the interpreter stilted that they retain ac- curately nearly all that comes under their noticf, and when they go back to Corea on the. Peru they will all doubtless have won- derful stories to tell his Majesty, the court and the people generally. . Last evening the Coreaus gave a short concert to the guests of the hotel and their friends. Their chief instruments are two native flutes constructed of bamboo, with seven holes and a blowhole as big as half a dollar; a bundle of reeds tied together and operated by eight orifice* arranged crosswais instead of lengthways; a very peculiar fiddle something like a banjo. with the strings loose and on the siuii. The tension Is made by pressure of the finger-. Their music possesses both rhythm and phr;i-ir.K to a limited extent. \u25a0* .Now and again there wns a wild burst of sound and the tunes ended by gradually dying away. It is all descriptive music. Everything they nog or played was of " a religious nature, and the lust number was a bunt;, in unisnn with which they are accustomed to sing the Kmperor to sleep. Cnrd Wetjen and Mr. WsUdron of the audience sane "My Pretty Quadroon" for them mid they weie perfectly will with delight. In all thpy sang three long song 3 and played three pieces. They possess the trill to a remarkable degree, and intro- duce it into nearly tvery bar. Tiiey trili in a full tone quite accurately, but the songs often end on the dominant instead of the tonic. Tuay have a perfect appre- ciation of the diatonic, which the Chinese nnd Japanese do not possess. The leader ke«ps time with one hand, and sometimes with both, slapping his knees and raising hit fingers in correct Corean iashiou. They refused to accept any compensa- tion for their music, saying it would an insult to their Kmperor. As an instance of their smoking capa- bilities it may be meuti'med that they sent out for ten packages ol tobacco arid fif- teen pucks ol cigarettes yesterday. When alono the whole eleven sit around a table and drop the ashes of their cigarettes into a cigar-box, which they asked for aud first covered with paper beiore using. CAVGBX 11Y Hit: CAMEIt I o\ TUEIR WJX BOMB TO COUBA. CRAZY ON MARRIAGE. J. Etienne's Long Vigil at a City Hall Keyhole. Thore was a man who created quite a stir in the corridors of the new City Ilall yesterday. His movement! were watched for some time aiid it soon became evident that he was crazy. The man would dart here and there, mut- ter something to himself, and clutch a pa- per in his right hand. lie haunted the locality of the marriage license office. When anybody approached he would pull himself together, but when he thought he was alone he would peep through the key- hole of the marriage license office for fif- teen minutes at a time Cupid Haley's alteution was called to the strange actions of thn m«n, and he recog- nized him a3 Joseph Etieune. El eiine several days ago went to the marriage license < ffico to procure a license to marry his divorced wife, M. Kiienne. He managed on his representations to get the license. He stated that his wife had found out that she could not exist without his tender devotion, and had consented once more to throw herself in his arms. ThH next day when Mrs. Ellenne learned of ins doings she repudiated the license, said she bad not consented to the Issuing of the license and hail no intention of again consorting with lenne. This crushed him and ev.-r since he has been banging around the marriage license cilice. When asked yesterday why he was pepp- Ing through the keyhole he said: "My wife is in there and I am waiting for her to come nut." If Etienne keeps up his antics he will be taken before the Insanity Commissioners. AT THE THEATERS. The Hypnotic Play at the Stockwell. At the Tivoli "The Bells of Corne- ville"—"Muldoon\s Picnic" at the (irove-street. The play at the Stockwell that turns on a lost African diamond and the mesmeric Influence that tries to find it is peculiar in its character and tone, and wag played, likewise, in a peculiar manner. All the people in the cast were assigned charac- ters to which they were not accustomed, bat many of them did remarkably well with their new studies. Miss Ethel Bran- don, for example, who played Hypatia, was very fine and easy in her manner, a sort of dramatic Carmen, and brought the audience down by the points she made. She developed new qualities in her r.cline, and showed that she was not confined in her histrionic business to one line or one single method— that of the super-genteel leading lady. George Oibourne played the villainous Jaw. Gartman, her father, and his eccentric ability came into good use. Osbourne never does anything badly, unless he by some mischance get.* into a romantic character, and there he is lost. Ha was not lost in Gartman. On the contrary, he was found to be so lonely and perfectly at home that be contributed a ereat amount of lift) and color to the whole business. Mr. Jewett as Adnlph Dasent, the amateur hypnotist, was also happy in bis etiort. In his manipulation ol the elder Ki.y, owner of the lost aero, he was perfect, and one would suppose he had taken lessons from J. Franklin Brown by the graceful and expert manner in which he put ths old miner to sleep. The audience, which was a large one, watched him with breath- less interest. Jewett must have a physical influence that passed beyond the foot- lights and into the auditorium. Oliver Doud played Edward Kithlan. the Cape of Good Hone detective, in his usual happy way. Willie Wooller, the negro, or, as he ought to be, the Hottentot servant of John Boy, was in good bands with W. U. Mc- Kee, but there whs too much Congo and too little of the Hottentot in his manner. There are different classes of negroes in Africa. The cast generally was well at- tended to. There is sufficient in "The Dark Continent" to ensure full houses and a good run* "The Bells of Corneville." chestnutty as it 1-, pleased the patrons of the Tlvoli, juduing by the large attendance, much better than did "The Yeoman of the Gdard." Miss Tillie Salinger sang Ger- maine, the lost Marchioness, in a way that spoke of renewed vigor and energy, nnd her chimes song in the opening act was applauded and rncored. Miss Fannie hidiiard. made a good .Serpolette, Mr. George 01ml w;is in good voice as the Maiquis, and Ferris Hartman, as G.ispard, the miser, showed force and dramatic power. "The Bells" il old, but it has a drawing quality about it. ".Muldonn's Picnic" was produced at the Grove-street Tbeator to a laughing audi- ance. It is simply a piece of merriment frcm begiuDiug to end. It is said the benefit for E.C.Buckley at tbe Stockwell on Sunday afternoon last netted, by and large, $1000. Mis? Adele aus der Ohe will continue her series o{ farewell concerts at tbe Metropolitan Temple during the week. Manager Slothersole of the Macdonough Theater, Oakland, continues ill from pneumonia ami the theater will be closed tor the week. The Burgess "County Fair" engagement crowded the house. Miss Neamata Vermont Van Pelt will conc«rtiz« this evening at the Metro- politan feruple, assisted by the best local talent. The Societa Filoharmonic Gtiiseppe Verdi will produce at the Alcazar Theater to-morrow evening, Fioravunte's opera "Calamella." ' Found Dead by Her Child. About half-past 8 last evening a little child ran out from a house atll^<4 Folsora street and attracted attention by its piteous •cries, beseeching some one to come aad see "mamma" who was "sick." The house was entered and the child's mother, Mrs. Maud Eilick. found lying motionless against a corner of the wall. Medical assistance was summoned, but the woman was dead. Deceased was 24 years of age nnd a native of California. Her husband keeps a bar- ber's shoo on Market street, between Van .Nest and I'olk. Husband nnd wife and their two children lived together at the bouse on Folsoni street. \u25a0 The body was brought; to the Morgue. From the circumstances them is nothing to engender suspicion of death having re- sulted from other than natural causes. Three clerks are now at work completing the' Chinese iegl«t ration \u25a0 li»i under Hi.! suptrlo- trudency of <ii-ncr.il McComb. -'Two Chinese applied for nation - yesterday, but were loMlliey weie tuu lute. OVER IN OAKLAND. Was Well Recommended but Turned Thief. A CONTESTED DIVORCE CASE. The Railroad Accident-A Southern Pacific Suit Comprom ised— Trouble at the home for the Blind. ExTEKTAi.viNG a Tiiief.—Detectives Downey and Shorey did a very clever piece of work yesterday in running down a con- fidence man named Carl 1". Seheig. Itcame about in this way: John I). C. Knapp i 9 a religious man and an enthusi- astic Seventh-aay Auvi-ntist. He was in attendance at the camp-nieetlug now in preparation at bushrod Park, and had aa his guest a suave, well-dressed young fellow named bcheig. lie is said to be well counected in Minneapolis, and it is said also that he left there suddenly, but of this latter fact Mr. Kuapp was ignorant, Scheig's plausible ways won Mr. Knapp over to him, however, and he gave him the freedom of his tent on tho camp grounds and introduced him tohis friends risjht and left. Mr.bcheig souu began to make him- self at home, and was allowed the free- dom of the tent. He was left alone there oitin, and it is supposed that yesterday, while alone, shaving himself, ho weut through Mr. Knapp's trunk. At any rate, mat gentleman soon discovered that the trunk had been rifled. There wcic n . \u25a0 s-- iuc from it two drafts for JI4S and ?2u and u\-o i-i) in coin. The detectives were put on the case and soon hail their man treed. When con- fronted by the detectives, the smooth Mr. Seheig threw up his hands protesting!)-, The Idea that a man of his atirap and a Christian gentleman would s'cal from a friend. The detectives wouldn't listen to sentiment, however, and persisted. Schelg was searched and £27 found on him. and lie was finally lea to confess the theft and tell where the rest of the stolen property was. The drafts and S4O wore recovered, but he said ho had thrown two other drafts, payable to Mr. Knapp, into a sink, together wit!; the purse which had held thn money. He has a charge of grand larceny against him at the City J'risou. Tin-.

IJy tins tune, he say-, ihe cur hud attained such headw.iy that he could not catch it. Lowell Ttedtield, the sou of the lady who was hurt. lells a different story. Ha says the trolley was trailing behind in it-, propel place. The motorniaD walked back on the car to attend to it, then he got off on the ground— "the car bein^ nil the time in motion." says i!:e boy— **and started to run along tbe side to catch up and bick in l'is j>;;ice, but the car outraced him, and In attenit'tiuK to catch hold of a stancheoQ he missed it and fell to '.he ground."

Ho'.Ax-lloiiA.v.—This is the title to a new divorce oinj tiled in Oakland by Mrs. li< _-:!:!, who allp'ses tbat her husband, Kd- ward M., has been making tier life miser- able indeed, the says iv her complaint that he has been cruel to her and had imtv bouaht her two dresses in two years, buu 1 C( rroborative evidence for hor pur- poses aim had some women hidden in the house to listen to Hogan's abuse when ho c;irue home evening?, and when the bus- beard of this he told the wife sbe might go.

Hogan bunted up his wife ami tried to set her to return or to giv» back his babies, but in v.i in. The wife lulled him at every turn, .Mill also learned, In her woman's way, that he had S2OOO In bank, and an order was gotten oat by due process of law restraining the husband from touching this money pending the action for a divorce.

CROWDS FROM THE INTERIOR. San Franciscans Are Waiting Till AH the Exhibits Are in Place. Pointers for Travelers. "Are you going to the World's Fair?" That is the question which every ticket a^ent and every railroad man is now ask- ing. They are everywhere, these railroad so- licitors. On the feriies. In the hotel lob- bies, In tne streetcars and on the streets. They board the incoming vessels and way- lay every new arrival that comes valise- laden through the gateways at the steam- boat landings. There are a whole lot of way 3 for gut- t'ng to the big show other than those pro- posed by the runners, who have but a slight idea of what their roads can do for you after all, so it is bes> to go right to the main ticket i.ftice. where you will find lot 9 of accommodating gentlemen who are only too willing to answer questions. ~ "Now, speaking of questions," laid a local ticket-seller, willingthe perspiration from his troubled brow, for a stout l;idy with four small children had just put him through a cross-examination as to tne scenery along the Los Angeles, Xl l'a?o and Kansas City route, "there have been more questions asked on a smaller sale of tickets during Saturday and Friday than during any other two days since the fair opened. "To commence with, tho reports of ex- tortion iv Chicago have a good deal to do with it. Why, yon would be surprised at the number of people who ask us, 'Is it r?aily true that it cost so much to live there.'' Of course it is not policy for us to tell them all we know about the cost ol living iv the Windy City, so all we can s:iy in answer is, 'Oh, likely enough the first- class hotels are Charging big prices, but then there are other and cheaper places to stopat.' Itis true, too; for example, a number of our men, who have recently bi'eu in Chicago in the interest of the road, irives us the names of parties to whom tourists can apply for cheap rooms aud bonrd. "All the roads are making arrangements to have men at tlie other end of the line who will assist our customers to Cnd quar- ters. This will be a n<>od boon for travel- lers; for instance, you buy a ticket over our line; we give yuu a coupon, watch will identify you as a customer to onr CliicaßO ngent, who will turn yuu over to a clwk whose duty it is to keep a retard of board- log and lodging houses aud Hotels, together with their piices. "Everybody wants to know how much it willcost tv niakn the trip to t!ie fair ami return. Now. that Ha very hard (jueition to answer, because no two persons are alike in their tastes and financial standing. I calculate that a trip to Chicago and re- turn—so far as railroad fare?, berth, meals en route and little traveling incidentals are concerned— can bemp.de for about SV.;r>, traveling pretty comfortably with a I'ull- tiiitn berth, etc. Of course, you can jjo second class aud squeeze through fotabout $100, wiiile if you are not particular as to tretting regular sleep, beinc crowded and suffering a little from hard Blank seats you can make it fur Sso in au emigrant coich." "Are lliere many San Franciscans going, so far as you can see, or is the majority of the travel from in-bound transpacific steamers nml the country towns?" "It strikes me that there are more country people coing than any other class ]u»t at present. We catch a big lot of cus- tomers off tha Australian steamers The Australia brought up a large number of passengers in the cabin, nearly all of whom wire for Chicago. "San Francisco seems slow to move. The travelers from this city demand second-class tickets as a rule, and the richer people of the place are holding back for all the exhibits to be put in place. Poor people have to go whenever opportunity present?, and strange to say there is a prevailing opinion among this class that by going early they can see more. "Why, there was a woman In hero a short while uko who asked me if I thoueht she could get to Chicago In time to see the bin naval review ifshe. left Monday next. " 'My rlrnr madam/ 1replied, 'the review is over and part of the fleet has returned,' explaining that the review was held la Kew York harbor. "She said: 'Is (hat no? Why, I thought the ships were coming to Chicago through the new Suez canal.' "It would be wrong to assume that this person is a fair example of those who ask us questions, however." "Are v.m anticipating any rush next month?" "Yes, we do expect to have our linnds full then and will probably have our car- rying capacity taxed for the first wecir. in June, judging from what people sny when they come In to ask about rales, etc. There are tifty persons who ask questions and tell wnen they are Koing to start to every one who buys a ticket enaUliug him to leave Immediately." In conversation with a Southern Pacific ( metal upon the subject of the travel from the interior towns the gentleman said: "As far as 1 can see the country people will form the largest State contingency at the fair. Farmers' cons and daughters can better afford the tlmo to bo than sons of our San Francisco men, who lire prob- ably tied down io some clerical position and would have to resign to get a vacation for a month. The country people are making greater preparation lor the trip than our city folk-.' All th« local railroad officers say thai people are holding back for cheaper rates, and it might be well to insert that those who cbu spare the time do well to do so, for there is every indication of a conces- sion on the part of the transportation companies, us Eastern roads are cutting to Salt Lake and Denver, and California must eventually become a field for compe- tition. Tnc Canadian Pacific, Union l'aciu> And Atlantic ami l'aciric acencles tinre all lay that no cut is contemplated as yet, but in- timate that each is waiting to see what the others intend doing. An old railroad man said: "Tho Hues Will boom their advantages an scenic routes and cry In favor of their fine ser- vice until they find this will not draw cus- tom, then down will go the rales." The scalpers are doinK a better business, if anything, than tlie reaular ticket agents nad give a fair reduction on all routes. Is Sullivan Insane? The case of Patrick J. Sullivan, charaeil with wife murder, which is beinsr tried before JudKebeawp.il Id Department 11 of the Superior Court, is rapidly drawlna to a cloaa and is expected to reach th« jury tlii9 afteinoun. in fact, It hits taken longer to impanel a Jury In this trial than th« hearing of the case will occupy. s--gjj a leßtcrdny the prosecution rested ana the defense pppnnd. A largo number of witnesses from Fresno were being exam- ined when the court rose.

KODAKEDCOREANS

How We Impress Themand They Us.

A PICTURESQUE BAND HERE.»

"Craps" and Cigarettes Will MingleWith Their Memories of a

Good Time in America.

The Imperial Corean Band, which waspresent at the opening of the ChicagoWorld's Fair, is on its way home againand arrived in this city 00 Sunday night

Their treattneut since their aavent inthis country has been one loug successionof courtesies, and they will return toCorea not only deligUted with all theyhave seen and heard, but perfectly im-pressed with the fact that the American"barbarian," from the Pacific Coast to theEast, is tho most polite, thoughtful andcoiisijeratfi host they have ever net.

As a fitting wind-up to the attentionthey have received durina their stay thedelegation of ten musicians was met atSacramento, by Owen Ernest Jones, agentfor the Chicago and Northwestern Rail-way, who escorted them to this city andlodged them safely at a hotel.

The ten royal musicians are accompaniedtoy an Interpreter named Am Xl Sun, sec-retary of his Imperial C»reau Majesty andCommissioner to the World's fair, lie

came with the party West.'he said, "just tosee Them off,you knuw, and then go backto Chicago."

He studied English In the Americanchurch at Yokohama for only two months,but he is very bright and understandswhat is said to biro for the most Dart. lie.has left twenty-live Coreans in Chicago,most of whom aie wnll-tc-do farmers Intheir own country, and lie is naturally anx-ious to get back to them.

Of the musicians one plays the piano andanother the flute in addition to their nativeinstruments. They are very sorry to haveto return so soon, but they could not getfurther leave from the Emperor, and beingpart ci his band are, obliged to go back.

Through Am Xi Sun they expressedthemselves as being astonished and de-lighted at everything they had seen ivAmerica.

The knowledge that they have acquiredis not altogether unmixed with evil,forone of the hand at least has learned to"shout cr.ip>" in Illinois, and the firstthing they asked for on Monday morningwas a bottle of whisky. There was afancy cutzlass decanter labeled "GiltEd^e Whisky," and they would have thisor no other. It was accordingly filled upaud they returned their thanks, but notthe bottle, whig> the proprietor of thehotel good-naturedly allowed them tokeep and which they will csrry back toCores,

They are the first Coreans who have evervisited the United States, and it will beremembered that they positively refusedto be photographed when they arrived hereon the way to the World's Fair.

They are nroud of having played at theope'iing of the fair, still prouder at havingspecially performed for President Cleve-land, aud proudest of all at havius beenpersonally thanked by the President fortlißir mu<ic and their visit

The Call presents a picture of themusicians taken yesterday in the backyard of the hotel. At first the subjectspositively refused to be photographed,but were finally persuaded by Mr. Wal-dron on promises that they should havocopies given to them to take back toCorea and show their friends.

Their dresses are as peculiar as they aredifficultto describe. The headdress con-sists of three pieces. First, there is aband of the finest network, mdru delicatnthan mosquito netting, and when wovenresembling the most minute wlreworkImaginable. This is surmounted by a sortof "sl.ako" of the same material, which isalways worn in the house and comes welldown on the back of tlie bead. In frontthere is a Kindof half step. Over thisagain is worn the stiff broad-brimmedgauze hat which is sh^wn In tie picture.It is very light and fastened under thechin with a black silk ribbon.

The hair is glossy black in me youngmen and pulled up behind, very much inthe same fashion as American women wearIt,and fastened In a knotted braid on theciown. It is confined either with a tortoise-shell brooch or a large pearl. In the housethe men wear a white jacket with large6leev>'s, an undergarment which crosseslike a scarf about the throat, and immensebagty Persian trousers of the same mate-rial. These are confined at the ankleswith cord;, and the footwear and snoea arenearly similar to the Chinese, stockingsand slippers so familiar to San Francis-cans.

Around the waist a rope of blue silk isworn, and from It are suspended the purse,the tobacco-pouch and other articles. Thematerial of the wbole dress seems to be acreamy texture, somethinj between merinoand silk.

The overdress Is sleeveless and edgedgenerally with p-ile-bltie silk about threein'liei wide. White and blue and a purplamauve ars evidently their favorite colors.

They are incessant cigarette smokersana have kindly taken toAmerican brands,using a copper or bra?s mouthpiece holderabout as long as an ordinary penholder.

They slmve the cheeks, but grow amustache and Imperial, also cultivating apointed tultof hair on the chin.

Tliey were not long in the house beforethe proprietor f'juuti out that they wereFree Masons of some sort. Itis evidentthat they possess some of the mysteries ofthe craft in a ru<i» way, dating backthousands of years perhaps, though theirmasonry is possibly crude.

Their headdress is part of their religionand has a significance down to the buttonsen the side of the inside hat.

While the signatures of the band werereadily obtained, the Interpreter positivelyrefused to write the name of the .Emperor,which, it appears, is held sacred, and towrite which would be a crime.

The name of the unaerdress is "wanenauch poo rimai."

In person they are much larger andbigger-framed than tne average Chinamanor Japanese. They are apparently brighteralso, and converse rapidly and pleasantlywith each other without any of the noiseand guttural clatter that accompanies Chi-nese conversation.

They carry with them a pale, yellow,dried root, which is a little bitter andwhich they chew much like an Americangirl does cum or slippery elm. It is sup.posed to cure colds.

To outsiders they are polite, but possessthe peculiar stoical features of all Mon-golians and will sit by the bour withoutmoving a muscle.

During the six days of their stay herethe ( oreans willendeavor to see all theycan of the city. Yesterday they kept closeto the bouse, resting and smoking in theparlor. They find themselves the objectofso much curiosity when they go out thatit is unpleasant for them; but their stayin Chicago has made them used to crowd",and they mind the white, man'i scrutinyle«« now than when they first came here.

Their visit willdoubtless be productiveof mutual good to the two countries, forthe interpreter stilted that they retain ac-curately nearly all that comes under theirnoticf, and when they go back to Corea onthe. Peru they willall doubtless have won-derful stories to tell his Majesty, thecourt and the people generally. .

Last evening the Coreaus gave a shortconcert to the guests of the hotel and theirfriends.

Their chief instruments are two nativeflutes constructed of bamboo, withsevenholes and a blowhole as big as half adollar; a bundle of reeds tied togetherand operated by eight orifice* arrangedcrosswais instead of lengthways; a verypeculiar fiddle something like a banjo.with the strings loose and on the siuii.The tension Is made by pressure of thefinger-.

Their music possesses both rhythm andphr;i-ir.K to a limited extent. \u25a0* .Now andagain there wns a wildburst of sound andthe tunes ended by gradually dying away.Itis all descriptive music. Everythingthey nog or played was of

"a religious

nature, and the lust number was a bunt;,

in unisnn with which they are accustomedto sing the Kmperor to sleep.

Cnrd Wetjen and Mr. WsUdron of theaudience sane "My Pretty Quadroon" forthem mid they weie perfectly will withdelight.

Inall thpy sang three long song 3 andplayed three pieces. They possess thetrill to a remarkable degree, and intro-duce it into nearly tvery bar. Tiiey triliin a full tone quite accurately, but thesongs often end on the dominant insteadof the tonic. Tuay have a perfect appre-ciation of the diatonic, which the Chinesennd Japanese do not possess. The leaderke«ps time with one hand, and sometimeswith both, slapping his knees and raisinghit fingers in correct Corean iashiou.

They refused to accept any compensa-

tion for their music, saying it would b« aninsult to their Kmperor.

As an instance of their smoking capa-bilities it may be meuti'med that they sentout for ten packages ol tobacco arid fif-teen pucks ol cigarettes yesterday. Whenalono the whole eleven sit around a tableand drop the ashes of their cigarettes intoa cigar-box, which they asked for aud firstcovered with paper beiore using.

CRAZY ON MARRIAGE.

J. Etienne's Long Vigilat a City HallKeyhole.

Thore was a man who created quite astir in the corridors of the new City Ilallyesterday. His movement! were watchedfor some time aiid itsoon became evidentthat he was crazy.

The man would dart here and there, mut-ter something to himself, and clutch a pa-per in his right hand. lie haunted thelocality of the marriage license office.When anybody approached he would pullhimself together, but when he thought hewas alone he would peep through the key-hole of the marriage license office for fif-teen minutes at a time

Cupid Haley's alteution was called to the

strange actions of thn m«n, and he recog-nized him a3 Joseph Etieune.

•El eiine several days ago went to the

marriage license < ffico to procure a licenseto marry his divorced wife, M. Kiienne. Hemanaged on his representations to get thelicense. He stated that his wife had foundout that she could not exist without histender devotion, and had consented oncemore to throw herself in his arms.

ThH next day when Mrs. Ellenne learnedof ins doings she repudiated the license,said she bad not consented to the Issuingof the license and hail no intention ofagain consorting with lenne.

This crushed him and ev.-r since he hasbeen banging around the marriage licensecilice.

When asked yesterday why he was pepp-Ing through the keyhole he said: "Mywife is in there and Iam waiting for her tocome nut."IfEtienne keeps up his antics he willbe

taken before the Insanity Commissioners.

AT THE THEATERS.

The Hypnotic Play at theStockwell.

At the Tivoli "The Bells of Corne-ville"—"Muldoon\s Picnic"

at the (irove-street.

The play at the Stockwell that turns ona lost African diamond and the mesmericInfluence that tries to find it is peculiar inits character and tone, and wag played,likewise, in a peculiar manner. All thepeople in the cast were assigned charac-ters to which they were not accustomed,bat many of them did remarkably wellwith their new studies. Miss Ethel Bran-don, for example, who played Hypatia,was very fine and easy in her manner, asort of dramatic Carmen, and brought theaudience down by the points she made.She developed new qualities in her r.cline,and showed that she was not confined inher histrionic business to one line or onesingle method— that of the super-genteelleading lady. George Oibourne played thevillainous Jaw. Gartman, her father, andhis eccentric ability came into good use.Osbourne never does anything badly, unlesshe by some mischance get.* into a romanticcharacter, and there he is lost. Ha wasnot lost in Gartman. On the contrary, hewas found to be so lonely and perfectly athome that be contributed a ereat amountof lift) and color to the whole business.Mr. Jewett as Adnlph Dasent, the amateurhypnotist, was also happy in bis etiort.In his manipulation ol the elder Ki.y,owner of the lost aero, he was perfect, andone would suppose he had taken lessonsfrom J. Franklin Brown by the gracefuland expert manner in which he put thsold miner to sleep. The audience, whichwas a large one, watched him with breath-less interest. Jewett must have a physicalinfluence that passed beyond the foot-lights and into the auditorium. OliverDoud played Edward Kithlan. the Cape ofGood Hone detective, in his usual happyway. Willie Wooller, the negro, or, as heought to be, the Hottentot servant of JohnBoy, was in good bands with W. U. Mc-Kee, but there whs too much Congo andtoo little of the Hottentot in his manner.There are different classes of negroes inAfrica. The cast generally was well at-tended to. There is sufficient in "TheDark Continent" to ensure full housesand a good run*

"The Bells of Corneville." chestnutty asit 1-, pleased the patrons of the Tlvoli,juduing by the large attendance, muchbetter than did "The Yeoman of theGdard." Miss Tillie Salinger sang Ger-maine, the lost Marchioness, in a waythat spoke of renewed vigor and energy,nnd her chimes song in the opening actwas applauded and rncored. Miss Fanniehidiiard. made a good .Serpolette, Mr.George 01ml w;is in good voice as theMaiquis, and Ferris Hartman, as G.ispard,the miser, showed force and dramaticpower. "The Bells" ilold, but it has adrawing quality about it.

".Muldonn's Picnic" was produced at theGrove-street Tbeator to a laughing audi-ance. It is simply a piece of merrimentfrcm begiuDiug to end.

Itis said the benefit for E.C.Buckleyat tbe Stockwell on Sunday afternoon lastnetted, by and large, $1000.

Mis? Adele aus der Ohe willcontinueher series o{ farewell concerts at tbeMetropolitan Temple during the week.

Manager Slothersole of the MacdonoughTheater, Oakland, continues ill frompneumonia ami the theater will be closedtor the week. The Burgess "County Fair"engagement crowded the house.

Miss Neamata Vermont Van Pelt willconc«rtiz« this evening at the Metro-politan feruple, assisted by the best localtalent.

The Societa Filoharmonic GtiiseppeVerdi willproduce at the Alcazar Theaterto-morrow evening, Fioravunte's opera"Calamella."

'Found Dead by Her Child.

About half-past 8 last evening a littlechild ran out from a house atll^<4 Folsorastreet and attracted attention byits piteous

•cries, beseeching some one to come aad see"mamma" who was "sick."

The house was entered and the child'smother, Mrs. Maud Eilick. found lyingmotionless against a corner of the wall.Medical assistance was summoned, but thewoman was dead.

Deceased was 24 years of age nnd a nativeof California. Her husband keeps a bar-ber's shoo on Market street, between Van.Nest and I'olk. Husband nnd wife andtheir two children lived together at thebouse on Folsoni street.

\u25a0 The body was brought; to the Morgue.From the circumstances them isnothing toengender suspicion of death having re-sulted from other than natural causes.

He was inattendance at the camp-nieetlug now inpreparation at bushrod Park, and had aahis guest a suave, well-dressed youngfellow named bcheig. lie is said to be wellcounected in Minneapolis, and it is saidalso that he left there suddenly, but of thislatter fact Mr. Kuapp was ignorant,Scheig's plausible ways won Mr.Knappover to him, however, and he gave him thefreedom of his tent on tho camp groundsand introduced him tohis friends risjht andleft.

He was left alone thereoitin, and it is supposed that yesterday,while alone, shaving himself, ho weutthrough Mr.Knapp's trunk. Atany rate,mat gentleman soon discovered that thetrunk had been rifled. There wcic n. \u25a0 s--iuc from it two drafts for JI4S and ?2u andu\-o i-i)incoin.

The detectives were put on the case andsoon hail their man treed. When con-fronted by the detectives, the smooth Mr.Seheig threw up his hands protesting!)-,The Idea that a man of his atirap and aChristian gentleman would s'cal from afriend. The detectives wouldn't listen tosentiment, however, and persisted. Schelgwas searched and £27 found on him. andlie was finally lea to confess the theft andtell where the rest of the stolen propertywas.

CHICAGO TRAVEL.

What Local Ticket AgentsAre Doing.

CROWDS FROM THE INTERIOR.

San Franciscans Are Waiting TillAH the Exhibits Are in Place.

Pointers for Travelers.

"Are you going to the World's Fair?"That is the question which every ticket

a^ent and every railroad man is now ask-ing.

They are everywhere, these railroad so-licitors. On the feriies. In the hotel lob-bies, In tne streetcars and on the streets.They board the incoming vessels and way-lay every new arrival that comes valise-laden through the gateways at the steam-boat landings.

There are a whole lot of way 3for gut-t'ng to the big show other than those pro-posed by the runners, whohave but a slightidea of what their roads can do for youafter all, so it is bes> to go right to themain ticket i.ftice. where you will findlot9of accommodating gentlemen who are onlytoo willingto answer questions. ~

"Now, speaking of questions," laid alocal ticket-seller, willingthe perspirationfrom his troubled brow, for a stout l;idywith four small children had just put himthrough a cross-examination as to tnescenery along the Los Angeles, Xl l'a?oand Kansas City route, "there have beenmore questions asked on a smaller sale oftickets during Saturday and Friday thanduring any other two days since the fairopened.

"To commence with, tho reports of ex-tortion iv Chicago have a good deal to dowithit. Why, yon would be surprised atthe number of people who ask us, 'Is itr?aily true that it cost so much to livethere.'' Of course it is not policy for us totell them all we know about the cost ollivingiv the Windy City, so all we can s:iyin answer is, 'Oh, likelyenough the first-class hotels are Charging big prices, butthen there are other and cheaper placesto stopat.' Itis true, too; for example, anumber of our men, who have recentlybi'eu in Chicago in the interest of the road,irives us the names of parties to whomtourists can apply for cheap rooms audbonrd.

"All the roads are making arrangementsto have men at tlie other end of the linewho willassist our customers to Cnd quar-ters. This willbe a n<>od boon for travel-lers; for instance, you buy a ticket over ourline; we give yuu a coupon, watch willidentify you as a customer to onr CliicaßOngent, who will turn yuu over to a clwkwhose duty it is to keep a retard of board-log and lodging houses aud Hotels, togetherwith their piices.

"Everybody wants to know how much itwillcost tv niakn the trip to t!ie fair amireturn. Now. that Ha very hard (jueitionto answer, because no two persons arealike in their tastes and financial standing.Icalculate that a trip to Chicago and re-turn—so far as railroad fare?, berth, mealsen route and little traveling incidentalsare concerned— can bemp.de for about SV.;r>,traveling pretty comfortably with a I'ull-tiiitn berth, etc. Of course, you can jjosecond class aud squeeze through fotabout$100, wiiile ifyou are not particular as totretting regular sleep, beinc crowded andsuffering a little from hard Blank seatsyou can make it fur Sso in au emigrantcoich."

"Arelliere many San Franciscans going,so far as you can see, or is the majority ofthe travel from in-bound transpacificsteamers nml the country towns?"

"It strikes me that there are morecountry people coing than any other class]u»t at present. We catch a big lot of cus-tomers off tha Australian steamers TheAustralia brought up a large number ofpassengers in the cabin, nearly all ofwhom wire for Chicago.

"San Francisco seems slow to move.The travelers from this city demandsecond-class tickets as a rule, and thericher people of the place are holding backfor all the exhibits to be put in place. Poorpeople have to go whenever opportunitypresent?, and strange to say there is aprevailing opinion among this class that bygoing early they can see more.

"Why, there was a woman In hero ashort while uko who asked me ifIthouehtshe could get to Chicago In time to see thebin naval review ifshe. left Monday next."

'Myrlrnr madam/ 1replied, 'the reviewis over and part of the fleet has returned,'explaining that the review was held laKew York harbor.

"She said: 'Is (hat no? Why, Ithoughtthe ships were coming to Chicago throughthe new Suez canal.'

"Itwould be wrong to assume that thisperson is a fair example of those whoask us questions, however."

"Are v.m anticipating any rush nextmonth?"

"Yes, we do expect to have our linndsfullthen and will probably have our car-rying capacity taxed for the first wecir. inJune, judging from what people sny whenthey come In to ask about rales, etc.There are tifty persons who ask questionsand tell wnen they are Koing to start toevery one who buys a ticket enaUliug himto leave Immediately."

In conversation with a Southern Pacific( metal upon the subject of the travel fromthe interior towns the gentleman said:

"As far as 1 can see the country peoplewill form the largest State contingency atthe fair. Farmers' cons and daughterscan better afford the tlmo to bo than sonsof our San Francisco men, who lire prob-ably tied down io some clerical positionand would have to resign to get a vacationfor a month. The country people aremaking greater preparation lor the tripthan our city folk-.'

Allth« local railroad officers say thaipeople are holding back for cheaper rates,and it mightbe well to insert that thosewho cbu spare the time do well to do so,for there is every indication of a conces-sion on the part of the transportationcompanies, us Eastern roads are cuttingto Salt Lake and Denver, and Californiamust eventually become a field for compe-tition.

Tnc Canadian Pacific, Union l'aciu> AndAtlantic ami l'aciric acencles tinre all laythat no cut is contemplated as yet, but in-timate that each is waiting to see what theothers intend doing.

An old railroad man said: "Tho HuesWill boom their advantages an scenicroutes and cry In favor of their fine ser-vice until they find this willnot draw cus-tom, then down willgo the rales."

The scalpers are doinK a better business,if anything, than tlie reaular ticket agentsnad give a fair reduction on all routes.

Is Sullivan Insane?The case of Patrick J. Sullivan, charaeil

with wife murder, which is beinsr triedbefore JudKebeawp.il Id Department 11 ofthe Superior Court, is rapidly drawlna toa cloaa and is expected to reach th« jurytlii9 afteinoun. in fact, It hits takenlonger to impanel a Jury In this trial thanth« hearing of the case willoccupy. s--gjj aleßtcrdny the prosecution rested anathe defense pppnnd. A largo number ofwitnesses from Fresno were being exam-ined when the court rose. They are askedto testify that they knew Sullivan forsome years inFresno and that he alwaysacted in a peculiar manner, susßestlve ofinsanity. ,
