AMUSEMENTS.
Saturday afternoon “Romeo and Ju-
liet’’ was presented at the Grand opera
house by the Mac Lean and Prescott com-
pany. to a larae audience composed most-
ly of ladies. It was well received and the
acting of al) parts was very clever. At
night the same company was seen in “The
Duke’s Wife" by another good house.
Last night the opera house was com-
fortably tilled with people curious to see
the comedy play called “A Breezy Time”
which was presented by Fitz and Webster
and a company of very clever comedians.
The performance is not intended to cause
one to study but on the contrary is one
which can and does amuse all from
the old man to the baby. It is a contin-
uous line of humorous specialties and the
audience was kept in a continuous roar.
The most attractive feature and in fact
the only one which is anything but fool-
ishness is the scene in which Miss Web-
ster and Mr. Fitz make use of a number of
musical instruments. Their rendition of
the various selections on the cornets were
simply splendid and effected several en-
cores. “A Breezy Time” will be repeated
tonight.
Sam Jones Not Here.
Yesterday morning the car sheds at the
Springs were packed with church goers
to hear the widely known evangelist Kev.
Sam Jones. When the hour of 11 rolled
around it was announced that Mr. Jones
had not arrived and that in his stead
Rev. George Stewart of Georgia would
address the people. It was further an-
nounced that Sam would arrive yester-
day consequently another packed taber-
nacle was awaiting his appearance last
night and they were disappointed. How-
ever Mr. Stewart held them down and
preached a rousing sermon. The singing
was excellent and the choir of 100 voices
has been well rehearsed by Mr. Excell
traveling singing evangelist.
Rev. Jones is expected on every train
and when he arrives due notice will be
given and the town will no doubt turn out
in full.
Probate Matters.
The following probate matters have
'been dealt with:
Estate of J. E. Keller deceased—Sale
of property made by administrator ap-
proved except as to lot 15. block 32
Moore’s subdivision and lot 21. block 24
Maverick’s subdivision; administrator
ordered to resell said lots.
Estate of Robert M. Smith. deceased-
Letters of administration granted to
Joseph M. Smith bond of administrator
fixed at $3360.
This being the last day of the Septem-
ber term the court adjourned to the Nov-
ember term; which begins on the third
Monday in that month.
Colored Independence
Is developed at the Krisch hall meeting
Saturday night composed almost entirely
of colored citizens that the colored men
of this city are not unanimous in favor of
the resolution which the chairman de-
clared carried to the effect that the little
Jim-Crow executive committee was au-
thorized to make a county ticket for them
to vote for which simply means for the
aforesaid committee to get together with
Mr. Callaghan and endorse the ring ticket
already out. An intelligent speaker de-
manded to know if that was the purport
of the resolution but was unceremonious-
ly shut off by adjournment.
It will be a hard job to deliver our
colored citizens to the Bryan Callaghan
ticket.
Ihe Bohemian Boys.
The newly organized Bohemian club
held a short meeting at Rische’s theatre
yesterday afternoon and transacted regu-
lar routine business. Eight new members
were elected and a large amount of money
was collected. At the close of the session
the boys went to their new apartments
over the Western Utilon Telegraph office
and there had a jolly time singing play-
ing discussing the various topics of the
day. The boys have their rooms hand-1
somely furnished and are deserving of I
praise for their endeavors. Tonight they
have their grand opening and a time of
tun is anticipated.
A Horse Stolen.
Will Johnson resides on the corner of
Tenth street and Avenue C. Saturday
afternoon about 5 o'clock he put his
horse in the stable and repaired to the
house near by. About 7 o’clock in the
evening he had occasion to go to the
' barn and to his surprise when entering
his horse was missing. He at once came
to the conclusion that some one had
stolen the animal as the doors were fast-
ened with hooks when he left them and
when he returned they were open. The
officers have the matter in charge.
LONG LAKE LOTS.
Only a few more left. Who wants them?
Thirty and thirty-five dollars each on
long time. Drop me a postal card and I
will call and show them to you.

SHORT STOPS.
Wbat the People are Saying.
A reader of the Light contributes the
following:
“It seems that the cholera scare has not
aroused the suspicions of those Intended
to be scared. Ilerff predicted cholera and
waited for a chance to establish his rep-
utation. Braunnage) is an Intimate
friend of the administration and
Swearingen a trusted knight of Hogg's.
The registration about to occur ren-
ders their case desperate. The intelli-
gent citizens are being instructed to
register and vote right. They would
leave if cholera broke out so look for
more cholera during registration and just
before voting. Keep the people posted
and don’t let this infamous trick succeed.
Confusion to the enemy!”
। A dairyman supplying butter to a large
number of city customers found on Satur-
day in making the rounds that a large
number of his customers had left the city
on account of the cholera scare and the
dairyman with a stock of fresh butter on
hand wanted to know if there was any
cholera in the city.
• • •
There is no cholera within 10.000 miles
of San Antonio and the experience of the
last few weeks proves that it will get no
nearer.
* » »
It is a desperate condition of affairs
when the ring use the cholera scare to
help them out at the polls. Let the peo-
ple register and be. ready to vote.
•’ * *
The runaways will all be back again if
we can only keep our eyes on the panic
makers.
• • «
To rob the taxpayers of our city and
county is one of the delightful privileges
of the “ring.” Will the people permit
themselves tq be scared out of town ruin
our city’s business kill off the fall trade
just to’elect thejing?
Thousands of dollars are being squand-
ered in senseless useless sanitary inspec-
tion. It’s humbug fraud political trick-
ery. Let the people register and be ready
to vote them down.
Republican Meeting.
There were a large number of republi-
cans of the county met at Convention hall
Saturday night to hold what was known
as the county republican mass convention.
There a large number of the colored race
in attendance lead by about a dozen
office holders.
The 8:30 Hon. Charles Ogden called the
meeting to order and made a brief speech
after which he called for nomination for
a temporary chairman. Geo. Paschal
and Col. R. M. Moore were nominated
the latter withdrawing consequently Mr.
Paschal was elected. He repaired to the
platform and made a few brief remarks
after which W. H. Mitchell was nomi-
nated and elected to the office of tem-
porary secretary. A motion was made
by Mr. Ogden that the temporary organ-
ization be made permanent which
was carried. The following were ap-
pointed to act as an executive committee-
Dr. G. G. Clifford chairman; William
Lockwood. A. Santleben Thad C. Bell
W. S. Anderson. Dr. G. J. Starnes Fred
Terrell. Dr. M. Lindner R W. Wallace
Henry Terrell W. H. Mitchell Samuel
M. Johnson and Charles W. Ogden.
W. S. Messmer. R. M. Moore Dr. Clif-
ford. W. C. Williams and August Santle-
ben were then appointed a committee on
resolutions. They retired and began
drafting proper resolutions. During
time which they were out. Editor Har-
wood of the Tonguelet. made a short talk
which was entertaining and pleased the
greater portion of the attendants.
The committee on resolutions then re-
ported reading four resolutions on the
national state and county political af-
fairs which were declared adopted by the
chair and the meeting adjourned.
convention notes.
Col. Paschal soared almost back to the
time of Noah and the flood but carefully
avoided saying anything about the cor-
rupt state of affairs in Bexar county.
Dr. Lindner carried his point when he
moved to “gum.” That shut those kick-
ers out.
Prof. Jim Davis had the whole busi-
ness stuffed right down him Saturday
night but he does not like it.
The majority of the republican county
executive committee appointed Saturday
night are office holders. The kicking
coons were not in it.
Had those resolutions been read separ-
ately as called for. the endorsement part
would not have been adopted.
The republican county committee .will
now fix up the medicine and the colored
bretheren will be expected to swallow the
dose If it chokes them.
Col. Tugwell set in the background but
had nothing to say. *
Tom Paschal and Hogg are to be used
to save the boss.
Nat Lewis and Big Joe were around
helping the boys run the business.
The office holders out-generalled the
colored folks and knocked them clean
out.
The members of the Old Grev Mule
gambling fraternity helped the officials
run the machine and the colored parsons
were counted out.
