$5000 for C. Harthmlcr of North

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.. April C.
Tho vigilance of the officials of
tho Medford, Or., National bank was
tho cnuso of Mike Golden's notorious
bunco crane losinir $5000 which it
I r r a-
wns about to take away from I.
(Hnrthmier, n wealthy farmer of Spo
kane, Wash. Tho bank incidentally
saved Hnrthmier a good deal more
than $5000, as tho wealthy Gorman
did not believe ho wns being buncoed
when rescued by tho Pinkertons and
still insisted that he was going to ac
cumulate a fortuno playing Gulden's
fnkc racing game.
ITarthrnicr came to Snn Frnncisco
in tho early part of March. Ho went
about town seeing tho sights and wns
soon tnken in tow by one of Gold-
en's stcercrs and enticed to a fake
poolroom on Ellis street, near Fill
more.
Puts Up Check.
The enpper who introduced himself
ns"n. Meyer," showed tho farmer
how he could get rich quick by bet
ting on sure-thing races. Tho capper
put up a "phony" $5000 check and
ITarthmicr put up a good one for the
same amount. Through somo bad
management tho horse the two bet on
won. Hnrthmier wns ohorjoyed and
wanted to cash in nt once. The
bunco gang told him that the genu
ineness of his check would hnvo to
be established beforo ho could he
paid.
The Bnnco men retained the check
and put it through for collection. The
paper was drawn on the Medford Na
tional bank and when the bnnk wns
queried by n locnl institution, where
the check had been presented for
payment tho Medford bank officinls
became suspicious nnd wired back to
delay payment until nn investigation
conld bo made.
Fearing gthat Hnrthmier wns in
the hands of thieves, tho Medford
bank sent a man post haste down
here.
Plnkcrtons Help.
The aid of tho Pinkertons was on
listcd and nft6r detectives from that
agency hnd located tho bunco gnng,
Detective McHugh of the local force
was sent out with them to recover
the check.
"J. F. VHlson," who made his
headquarters at 1551 Ellis street,
was found to have the check. Tho
enso was "squared" nnd "Wilson re
turned the check.. No attempt was
made by McHugh or tho PinkertoiiB
to arrest tho bunco men nnd Hnrth
mier was compelled to pny $400 to
someono beforo ho could gcgt his
check back.
The bank representative succeed
ed in getting Hnrthmier out of town
and beforo leaving said some harsh
things about "our rotten police de
partment." Golden has been operating in San
Francisco and his gang is part of n
"system" that has engaged in busi
ness in four cities of tho Pacific
coast, Seattle, Portland, San Fran
cisco and Los Angeles. Recently this
gnng wns in part driven from Port
land, nnd on arrival at Son Francisco
had some difficulty fixing mnttor
up. Prior to its departure letters
wero exchanged with certain "stand
ins" in tho buy city, nnd through n
prominent polico offieinl tho bunk
wero promised immunity.

Mr. Merrick, who represented tho
bnnk, accompanied him to San Fran

GREAT EVENING
OF GRAND OPERA
Greatest Musical Treat in History of
City Lambardl Troupe Dclluhtcd
Local Thcaternocrs Somo Great
Voices Wero Heard.
(BY E. M. ANDHEWS.)
The elito turned out lust night to
celobrato Medford's first attempt at
Italinn grand opera. Tho house wns
packed from orchestra pit to tho lust
seat in tho gallery and the crowd
know whon nnd where to npplautl.
Their appreciation was not moroly
make-believe it was real. It is safe
to say thero is no othor town in
America the siro of Medford that
would patronuo so liberally nnd ap
preciate so thoroughly the highest
typo of musical nrt.
As to tho company, it is n pity that
young singers hnvo to sing tho bloom
off from their voice beforo tUo world
is ready to crown thorn us king and
queon of song. The writor of this
article has mndo mttsio his lifo bus
iness, has heard most all of tho great
nrtists that have appeared in this
country. 1 hnvo heard "Cnvallerin"
given nt tho Metropolitan opera
houso in Now York with Cnlvo in th
leading soprano role, and to say that
Mine. Bosetti gnvo tho greatest in
terpretation of Santurzn thnt tho
writer hns over witnessed in his lifo
is only doing tho lady justico nnd
stating n modost fact. Somo dny
Bosetti will bo numbered among tho
Motropolitnn or nnramcrstein cast
and wo will henr her voico on tho Red
Spnl records nnd mention with pride
our hnving heard her whon in the
enst. But tho little lady still has tho
bloom upon hor voice and the
strength nnd fire of youth in her
veins. Sho is fighting tho hnrd, hard
fight for first place, and when sho
hns worked, and worked, oh. so hard,
she will somo dny find horself world
famous nnd then sho will sny, "Why
do they applaud me with such en
thusiasm now. I deserved it eight or
ten years ngo, but now I nm tired."
Well, wo have heard Bosetti nt her
best, oven though her name 5b not
montioned in tho lists with Mclba,
Calve and others.
Turriddu was plaved by Scala
brini. Ho is n young tenor, but pos
sesses n benuttful voice, and, like
his brothers of sunny Italy, ho hns
tho temperament Tho work of sing
ing two tonor roles in ono ovoning, so
trying as thoso of "Cnvnlloria" nnd
"Pnglincci," is renlly moro thnn one
tenor should attempt, no saved him
self a bit in "Cnvallerin" for his sec
ond performance and whnt a part he
did make of Caniol His grcnt sccno
nt tho close of the first net wns
something that Medford will remem
ber.
Alfio wns played by Pompeo
Elena, nc is a good baritone, n
young mnn with much promise. But
tho great baritone wns Giusoppo
Mnggi. Mr. Maggi has won fnmo ns
tho bnritono of Covent Garden, Lon
don, no gave us n groat perform
ance of Tonio. no is a finished ar
tist in every respect nnd ono capable
of stepping in Seotli's place at any
timo nnd filling the plnco thoroughly.
Miss Ginnn in the part of Lola in
"Cavnlloria" and Arlccchino in
"Pnglincci," did both parts exceed
ingly well. Mmo. Ester Adeborto
snng tho pnrt of Ncdda in a irtinnor
that showed her to bo nn artist cn-
pablo of a greater pnrt. While
Neddn is n splendid character, yet It
does not give tho opportunity for
intensity of voice nnd action thnt
somo of the more pprotcntious rolos
cisco police force against tho bnnk
nro without foundation. Tim pojico
force "stood in" wilt tho crooks, nnd
it wns tho Pinkertons thnt nided in
exposing tho game
COMPETITION
Tho city thought tho first tolo
phono company chargod too much.
Tho only remedy It know was tho an
cient panacea of competition to got
up a second company that would fight
the first one, with duplication of
plants that would wasto generally.
We should not feel called upon to
mention Lob Angeles' case unless Ita
moral wore protty wldoly applicable.
Wo read with pain that some good
senators are suspicious of tho admin
istration railroad bill because they
think It may lessen competition
among tho roads, Ot course the Inr
proroment of railroad sorvlco In this
country has been exactly coincident
with the docllno of competition. Wo
hnvo got bettor servlco and lower
rates Just about In proportion as tho
roads havo stopped fighting and sub
mitted to public regulation, In that
way only will still bettor service and
lowor ratos be bad. Saturday Eve
