Austin, Feb. 2.—The attorney gener-
al’s department holds that commissions
for the sale of municipal bonds by a
city shall not be paid out of the pro-
ceeds from the sale of the bonds, but is
authorized to be paid out of the gen-
eral revenue or current funds of such
a city. This ruling was in answer to
a question submitted by State Super-
intendent Doughty and arose over the
paying of commissions for the sale of
Fort Worth bonds.

“The only thing needed to gain a
sense of the charm of chamber music
as played by Flonzaley Quartette,”
a critic asserts, “is ordinary human in-
telligence.”. And yet in America such
a Chinese wall of prejudice has until
recently been built around chamber
music that its enjoyment has been
limited to a select few rather than the
many. How is the notion that cham-
ber music is caviar to the general
public to be combated? If the good
people who have held aloof could not
appreciate how ridiculously mistaken
they have been, let them attend one
Flonzaley concert and they will never
miss another. On the other hand, the
Flonzaleys can not play everywhere,
and until they have the prejudice is
apt to persist. We do not blame the
general public so much as those who
have learnedly descanted on quartette
playing as the inner shrine of art
which no profane foot should presume
to approach. It is understandable that
the Roman soothsayers should thus
screen their office from the eyes of the
vulgar, since there was nothing within;
but why use such tactics to Conceal the
truth of chamber music? We have
heard bad quartette playing, just as
we have heard bad piano playing, bad
singing and bad sermons. But noth-
ing in all the range of art is more
beautiful to listen to just for the grat-
ification of our esthetic sense than
Crystal-Majestic.
“The Foul Tramps,” which opened
at this theater last night to play for
the first half of the week, made a big
hit and is one of the best plays ever
staged by the Matinee Girls Company.
The scene is laid in the home of a
happily married couple whose respect-
ive brothers are expected to arrive on
a visit disguised as tramps. The two
set vant girls ai range for their sweet-
hearts to come as tramps to see them.
The real noboes happen in and are
mistaken both for the sweethearts and!
for the brothers. Joe Fox and Paul
Clifford are howls in the role of the
two real tramps, and no less clever
are Ruby Schmiedberg and Johnnie
Newton as the lake tramps.
The best thing in the whole show is
the singing of the “Memphis Blues” by
Marjorie Ray and the chorus. Anoth-
er good song is the “International
Rag,” by Hazel McCann.
Louis St. Ficrre is putting on a
magic act as the extra attraction for
the week. He is an artist at palming
and has a number of original stunts
that are out of the ordinary run and
get big applause from the house.
There is hardly an American woman
nowadays who can keep pace with the
demands made upon her time and
energy without paying the penalty of
ill-health. It may be that dreadful
backache, dragging pains, headaches,
nervousness or the tortures of a dis-
placement. It is the price she pays.
To women in this condition Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound comes
as a boon and a blessing. A simple
remedy made from roots and herbs
which brings glorious health to suffer-
ing women.
Look at the tongue, mother! If coat-
ed, it is a sure sign that your little
one’s stomach, liver and bowels need
a gentle, thorough cleansing at once.
When peevish, cross, listless, pale,
doesn’t sleep, doesn’t eat or act nat-
urally, or is feverish, stomach sour,
breath bad; has stomach-ache, sore
throat, diarrhoea, full of cold, give a
teaspoonful of “California Syrup of
Figs,” and in a few hours all the foul,
constipated waste, undigested food and
sour bile gently moves out of its lit-
tle bowels Without griping, and you
have a well, playful child again.
You needn’t coax sick children to
take this harmless “fruit laxative;”
they love its delicious taste, and it al-
ways makes them feel splendid.
Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bot-
tle of “California Syrup of Figs,” which
has directions for babies, children of
all ages and for grown-ups plainly on
the bottle. Beware of counterfeits sold
here. To be sure you get the genuine,
ask to see that it is made by “Califor-
nia Fig Syrup Company.” Refuse any
other kind with contempt.

Announcement has been made to the
effect that A. C. Fonda, for the past
eight years assistant general freight
agent for the Gulf, Colorado and Santa
Fe at Galveston, has been appointed to
succeed J. B. Bartholomew at Austin
as agent of the Texas tariff bureau.
Mr. Fonda will assume his new posi-
tion on March 1 and his headquarters
will be at Austin.
To fill the vacancy caused by the
promotion of Mr. Fonda, F. R. Dalzell,
now division freight agent for the
Santa Fe with headquarters at Dallas,
has been, or will be named as assis-
tant general freight agent. Mr. Dalzell
has been with the Santa Fe for years
and is well known in railroad circles
here and over the state. The official
announcements of these changes will
be made about the middle of this
month.
Mr. Bartholomew, for years con-
nected with the Texas traffic bureau,
will retire to his home at Palestine.
A. C. Fonda, who succeeds Mr. Bar-
tholomew, was born on Nov. 3, 1861 at
North Ferrisburg, Vt. He graudated
from the public schools at his home
town and at Vergennes, and entered
the railroad service' in 1878. Since
that time he has been constantly
climbing, due to the fact that he has
always been keenly alert to every traf-
fic problem confronted by the rail-
roads. It is . generally understood in
Texas that Mr. Fonda is one of the
best posted freight traffic men in the
South. He attends traffic meetings all
over the nation, and in doing so has
accumulated much data which has
qualified him for the position to which
he will be appointed.
His first railroad service was with
the Central Vermont railroad when he
was a .telegraph operator. He was
then relief agent, taking that position
because the lure of the rails attracted
him to an irresistible degree. He held
this position until 1881 when he was
promoted to claim clerk. From then
until 1887 he filled several positions in
the freight department of the Chicago,
and Northwestern. For two years Mr.
Fonda was in the newspaper advertis-
ing business, but soon returned to the
railroad world. He entered the service
of the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago
and St. Louis as rate clerk with his
office at Cincinnati,
Then Mr. Fonda came to Texas. From
September, 1894, to Sept. 1, 1897, he
acted as rate clerk for the San An-
tonio and Aransas Pass railway in San
Antonio. From Sept. 1 to. Dec. 1, 1905,
he was chief rate and cotton clerk in
the general freight department, suc-
cessively, for the Santa Fe in Galves-
ton. He was then made assistant gen-
eral freight agent.
Mr. Fonda also served as joint agent
for the Southwestern tariff committee
at Galveston to furnish ocean cotton
rates, assuming’ these duties Jan. 1,
1901, and relinquishing them in March
1907.
During his residence in Galveston Mr.
Fonda has made many friends. He is
an affable gentleman and a man able
to converse freely upon many questions
whether they pertain to railroads or not.

twenty of these charges were filed by

Burrell. They were men who were
found about a lumber yard in the
western part of the city yesterday and
it was said that they are seen there

“The Rose Maid.”
An advance notice says;
“The Rose Maid” is the pretty name
that was selected for the new operetta
that crowded the Globe Theater for
six months last season and which will
play a return engagement at the Grand
Opera House Monday, February 9.
This musical work is described as a
more ambitious production than most
of the musical comedies brought to
this country in recent years. Its tune-
ful score has introduced to America r
another European composer in the per-
son of Bruno Grandchstaedten, who
came over to direct the first American
performance of this opera.
Grandchstaedten's name may be the
cause of twisting numerous American
tongues into curley knots, but his
music is said to flow along as sweetly
and smoothly as the waters of his own
blue Danube. Music lovers who have
kept in touch with recent continental
successes declare he possesses the di-
vine gift of melody to a wonderful de-
gree. Certain it is that "Th'e Rose
Maid” abounds in enough graceful
two-step exhiliarating gallops, martial
choruses and “turkey trot” waltzes to
make ths new work one of the live-
liest dancing operas in this country.
Th'e melodies are said to have the same
lifting rhythm that made “The Spring
Maid” so popular.
Mrs. Seth Mabry Morris entertained
with a pretty party on Saturday after-
noon from 3 until 5 o'clock in compli-
ment to her little cousins, Misses
Julia and Elizabeth Peirce of 'Wythe-
ville, Va., and Miss Willie Beth
Sweeney.
Games of all kinds were played. The
party table was most artistic and
dainty in its arrangement. The cen-
terpiece was a large crystal vase
filled with white carnations.
Those enjoying the pretty hospitality
were: Misses Will Minor Morris, Mar-
garet Burton, Caroline Burton, Alice
Mamie Calvin, Ruth Dickey, May Fish-
er, Aline Maverick, Emily Brown, Jose-
phine Cunningham, Ollie Tabor, Eliza-
beth Smith, Murillo 'Masterson, Lillian
Masterson and Masters Lawson Maver-
ick and Jimsy Cunningham.
Mrs. J. S. Sweeney, mother of Miss
Sweeney, and Mesdames H. H. .Settle
and Robert L. Peirce, grandmother and
mother of the Misses Peirce, assisted
the hostess.

playing members of the Oleander
Country club agreeing to make at sat-

bers, the services of Mr. David Cuth-
bert, professional of the Huntingdon
. Valley club near Philadelphia, has been
secured. Members are requested to
take advantage of this opportunity to
become proficient in golf.
Arrangements can be made with Mr,

W. C. Morris, of the Galveston Com-
mercial Association committee on main-
land development, said today that the
interest which the railroads entering
Galveston had taken in the demonstra-
tion farm which is planned by the com-
mittee would be of great help to the
committee. Aid in the way of agri-
cultural methods used in different parts
of the state can be obtained from the
railroads as well as assistance in other
ways.
“Our purpose is to make this farm
so attractive that it will be one of
the places that visitors to Galveston
will visit,” said Mr. Morris today, “and
for that reason the farm should be
close to the city. We want to plant
palms and oleaders there. as well as
sea island cotton, and if possible, we
want it close enough so that some of
the labor on the farm can be done by
the prisoners of the city jail. We have
asked the city commissioners for lot
157, which comprises a tract which was
set aside for a city park, but was never
used, and we believe that we can ob-
tain nine or ten acres adjoining. This
will be sufficient for our purpose. This
place, which is in the Denver Resurvey,
is close enough to the city so that
every one can see what progress is be-
ing made.
At the meeting which will be held in
the rooms of the association next Sat-
urday at 10 o’clock a. m. to perfect
the organization of a Galveston County
Business Men’s League, delegates will
be present from the following towns
of the county: League City, Dickinson,
Alta Loma, Hitchcock, San Leon,
Friendswood, Algoa, Arcadia, La
Marque. The Galveston County Dairy-
men’s Association has also been re-
quested to send delegates, as well as
the members of the county commis-
sioners court.
The city commissioners will report
on the request concerning the city park
location next Thursday evening.

i Mrs. Joseph B. Dibrell, state chair-

I has issued a call requesting all sub-

acy to send in contributions at once.
The monument will be unveiled April

that time. The work of raising funds

impaired. She is nervous and down-
cast and becomes more so when she
receives a note from a man named
Thenardier, a country innkeeper, who j
demands payment for the keep of her
child. She is soon called into the of-
fice and discharged for lack of a good
excuse for her absence. Rather than
reveal the secret of her child, she pre-
prefers discharge and goes her sad
way in silence.
Meanwhile Javert, the prison guard,
has been promoted to the post of po-
lice inspector of Montreuil. In report-
ing to the mayor, “Mr. Madeleine,” he
is struck by that man’s resemblance to
the prisoner who once escap’ed from
him and he makes a mental note of
it. Fantine has drifted into deepest
poverty and in order to raise funds for
her child’s keep she is obliged to sell
her beautiful hair. Shorn of her hair,
she becomes an object of derision
among her associates. This scoffing
leads to a quarrel among the women of
the poor quarter and Fantine is ar-
rested by Javert, the iron man of duty.
The mayor, “Mr. .Madeleine,” happens
to enter the' police station after her
arrest. He learns from Thenardier’s
note, which is taken away from Fan-
tine when she is searched,' the reason
of her absence from the factory, and
her subsequent heroic self-denial.. The
mayor pities the woman and orders
her release. This action Javert con-
siders an affront to the majesty of the
law, personified in him. He becomes
all the more determined to unmask
the mayor by establishing his identity
as Jean Valjean. Poor Fantine con-
fides to “Mr. Madeleine” the story of
her misfortune, and he, seeing that she
is suffering’ from a fatal malady, has
her placed in the hospital belonging*,
to his bead factory, where he orders
every possible care shown to her.
Some days after an old man be-
comes accidentally pinned beneath al
very heavy wagon. “Mr. Madeleine,”
happening by, makes easy work of.
raising the heavy vehicle by his pro-
digious strength, after other men have
failed. Javert, being there also, notes
particularly this feat of strength, and
he is now more convinced than ever
that the mayor is none other than the
convict,who lifted that heavy stone in
the prison yard years ago. Fauchele-
vent. the man who was injured under
the wagon, becomes a cripple, and the
mayor, in the goodness of his heart,
procures a position for him as garden-
er at a convent in Paris. Just about
this time Javert reads a newspaper
account of a criminal caught recently
in Paris whom the police believe to be
Jean Valean. After reading this Jav-
ert feels that he has done “Mr. Made-
leine” a wrong in supposing him to
be Valjean. In humiliation he offers
to resign his position, giving “Mr.
Madeleine”’his reason. The mayor re-
fuses to take offense and destroys the
resignation.
