The Majestic’s Sensations.
The Majestic vaudeville show is
tomewhat sensational this week and
■ equal in the ordinary way to any
of the excellent bills that have lately
been presented here. Every act is
good the hitherto inevitable one de-
ficiency (attached for mascot pur-
poses. perhaps) being this time omit-
ted. A larger audience than is usual
for Sunday matinee gave cheerful rec-
ognition to each of the numbers and
every participant in the performance
had reason for self-congratulation.

Francesca Redding and her com-
pany gave a single act called "The
Cattle Queen” written by Will M.
Cressy. Its "locus in quo” Is Washing-
ton D. C. (to which is conveniently
wafted the refreshing and elevating
atmosphere of southwest Texas) and
It is bull strictly upon modern com-
edy lines. While tragedy threatens
throughout only fun is materialize.
and one feels better for having had it
to laugh at. The dramatic action was
far in advance of that of the average
vaudeville players.
The act of Dixon Brothers is a
Strong feature. They are musical
comedians as well as comedy musi-
cians who draw sweet sounds from
many directions even to making the
concertina endurable. Theirs is a
strictly English style of grotesque
clown work and fortunately for ev-

erybody concerned they are really
funny. The act is the best of the kind
ever shown at the Majestic.
Claudine Riley is not only an ar-
tistic cornet soloist but is a stunner
is appearance. Her demeanor sug
gests that to make a hit with a new
audience is an effortless task and her
reception was a warm one. Her cor-
net numbers are arranged in an un-
usually skilful and original manner
and are played in a musicianly style.
Claudine is "a peach to look at.”
Avery and Pearl are black face com-
edians and their act while of the us-
ual kind has several original addi-
tions of which the illustrated coon
song is the most important. Their
reception left no question of their
great popularity as a feature of the
week’s bill
"The Rollicks” of James and Bon-
nie Farley is an Indescrbable hash of
songs dances and acrobatics all of
the ridiculous sort. It is an excellent
vaudeville team alive at every instant
they are in sight and they were per-
mitted to close the act only upon signs
of exhaustion.
An interesting act the result of
much practice steady nerves and a
keen eye Is the hoop-rolling act of
Mlle. Aline. The frequent interrup-
tions by applause of its numerous fea-
tures gave evidence of the interest
and admiration of the audience.

An added specialty is that of Prof.
Swan who while suffering from the
loss of the tips of some fingers of one
hand raises an Inert 300-pound alliga-
tor from the floor with the sound
hand and the other wrist and lays
the saurian upon its back. Some
young alligators are also used In the
act. One of them Is made to crawl
up an incline and “shoot the chute”
Into a tank of water. The man joins
the little fellow in the tank and stays
under long enough to eat a piece of
banana and to handle the alligator.
These saurians are either of a unique
variety bred specially for their gen-
tleness. or are in a permanent hvpnot-
ic condition. J. V. FITZGERALD.

FIVE MILLION
- FOR TEXAS
BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF CLUB
TO HOLD MEETING IN SAN
ANTONIO APRIL 19.
John H. Kirby president of the
Texas Five Million club has sounded
the call to arms for that organiza-
tion by issuing a request to the board
of governors consisting of over fifty
representative men of the state to at-
tend a business meeting to be held
at San Antonio during the Carnival
and battle of flowers April 19.
At this meeting plans for advertis-
ing Texas through the Texas Five
Million club not only in the United
States but in foreign countries as well
will be matured by these patriotic
and energetic Texans and by the
the campaign is well under way peo-
ple in -emote corners of the globe
will be told of the grand old Lone Star
state with her matchless resources
making her the best advertised piece
of ground on the face of the earth.
The time has passed when the peo-
ple of Texas can stand idly by and
watch the immigation movement
gratifying though it be. It is hence-
forth a case of pulling together for
one general result and the meeting
in the Alamo City will be the means
of placing facts and figures before
men of wealth and Influence in all
parts of the country from which in-
calculable benefit will be derived.
One of the most important topics
slated for discussion at the meeting
is the one which concerns the Dia-
mond jubilee for 1911 though it is
hardly probable thata definite deci-
sion will be reached regarding the
place in which It is to be held. This
jubilee which will be the result of
years of patient toll and thought will
be the most representative affair of
its kind ever held In Texas.
Since appointing the board of gover-
nors President Kirby has been more
than gratified by the responses re-
ceived from all parts of the state.
They insure an enthusiastic meeting
and an enthusiastic meeting will make
possible five million Inhabitants for
Texas in 1910.
General Manager George L. Rock-
well is now In El Paso In the Interest
of the Texas Five Million club and
will go thence to other Important
towns of the state where he will en-
deavor to enlist Texans In what blds
fair to prove the greatest project of
the age.
There will be no excuse for non-
attendance at the San Antonio meet-
ing for the railroads have met the
issue by greatly reducing their rates
for the occasion.
TIE STRINGS TOGETHER.
Bashful Young Man Mortified In a
Broadway Car.
New York April 1. —Probably It
was bashfulness more than tact that
kept a young man silent on a Broad-
way car yesterday while a girl tied
one of his shoestrings to one of hers.
11l at ease knowing the burning In-
terest the incident was exciting in
the passengers on the opposite seat
he tried to pull his foot away gently
hoping the bow was not secure. But
the young woman who was a long
way from being of the pocket venus
type thought he was touching her foot
in an attempt to attract her attention
so she turned upon him with a glare.
The other passengers tittered and the
young man blushing furiously felt he
could not stand ft longer. He sprang
up and started for the door. Greatly
to her surprise the young woman’s
foot shot out Into the aisle. She
caught at the man's coat tail for he
could not be spared. At length scar-
let with confusion they managed to
divorce themselves.

hand his lack of control cost two runs.

Palacios Tex. April I.—A base ball
team was organized here one night
last week. Many star players from
the north will play on the team this
year. M. Churchill who formerly
played on one of the star teams of Se-
attle Wash. is manager and Professor
Gray principal of the public school
here Is secretary and treasurer. Mr.
Gray is an old-time player from Kan-
sas. About 20 players have been en-
rolled. and Palaqjos will put out a
strong team this year. Several swift
men from Illinois will play on the
team and the club is ready to consider
any challenge. Palacios Is an ideal
place for base ball and sports of all
kinds and a large sum of money Is
being raised to prepare grounds and
support the team. Excursions will be
run here this summer and ft Is hoped
that Palacios will have a chance to
play every amateur team in south
Texas.

mains of Charles C. Stahl late cap-
