into the house by the back door, never
scrapes his feet on the mat, never goes to
church, is careless at his meals, gets burrs
in his tail, goes with a lower grade of

AT THE TREMONT
A rather small audience assembled at
the Tremont last night to witness the
presentation of that well-known emotional
drama, Cami’le, by the Janish combina-
tion. The play is too well-known to
Galveston theatre-goers to require de-
scription or comment. As Camille Mme.
Janish did some very clever acting, but
her English is so indifferent that it was
at times impossible io understand her.
Her support was quite good and the per-
formance as a whole was unquestionably
above the average.
The Princess Andrea'is being presented
for a matinee this afternoon, and Violets
will be presented to-night, which per-
formance will close the company’s en-
gagement here.
manager's benefit.
The next attraction will be thatchaim-
ing little actress. Effie Ellsler, who ap-
pears Friday and Saturday evenings next
and Saturday matinee, the last two per-
formances to constitute a testimonial
benefit to Manager Ed. Greenwall. Fri-
day evening and Saturday matinee Frank
Harvey’s thrilling drama, Woman Against
Woman will be presented, the engage-
ment closing with Laura Don’s romantic
comedy Egypt; or a Daughter of the
Nile, Saturday night. The Little Rock
Gazette says: “If ever a better satisfied
or more enthusiastic audience left the
opera house than that one which came
from it at the conclusion of Miss Effie
Ellsler’s performance of‘Woman Against
Woman’ last night, it has not been our
good fortune to see it. And so it was in
i be afternoon when Miss Ellsler, as
Fgypt, the heroine of Laura Don’s rom-
antic comedy of that name, for two hours
and a half charmed with her delicate, ar-
tistic methods and her exquisite woman-
liness. In ‘Woman Against Woman’ and
‘Egypt’ she has a pair of plays which
serve as splendid foils to each other, and
serve excellently to display her phenom-
enal range of ability. In ‘Egypt’ she por-
trayed an ultra-romantic character, with
a sweet blending of innocence and world-
liness that was artistic in the extreme.
The stage has fewer prettier pictures than
that which closes the second act of this
play, when the day fades out behind the
palisades of the Hudson and Egypt Al-
lyn bids good-bye to her friends, the
quaint old tombstones, and sobs herself
to sleep, lulled by the voices of her tru-
ant lover and unkind cousin, who are
singing with an excursion party in the
distance. Effie Ellsler’s Bessie Barton in
this touching story by Frank Harvey is
as great an emotional portrayal as the
current stage has given us. It may be
classed with Clara Morris’ ‘Camille’ and
Bernhardt’s ‘Fedora.’ ”
Supported by Frank E. A iken and a strong
Dramatic Company.

GOOD WORK.
Mr. R. A. Kruger, the popular Market
street res'auranter, is making considers
ble improvement in his place. The old
floor was taken out, and as a foundation,
Byrnes’ new sanitary flooring was used.
“This,” remarked Mr. H. Devlin, whois
doing the work, “is the best material
that can be used in this climate. I re-
moved a floor a short while ago that had
been down so long that it was worn out,
but there was no rot about it. This
sanitary flooring is a mixture of asphal-
tum, coal tar and sand, and it is al o en-
tirely impervious to moisture. Flooring
put down without this will have to be
removed at least every five years, but
with this under it a floor is good until
actually worn out. Yes, it is expensive,
mt cheap in the long run.” The front por-
tion of Mr Kruger’s place will be floored
with marble tiles made especially for it.
When the improvements contemplated
are finished Mr. Kruger may congratulate
himself on having one of the most invit-
ing places in the city.
