THE CITY.
Our Governor, or Kia Little Hatohet.
Despite the very disagreeable weather it
wus a splendid audience that assembled at
the Tremont last night to see Mr. and .Mrs.
W. J. Florence in Oessop & Gill's four act
comedy entitle.d Our Governor,or His Little
Ilatchet. Though the Florences have never
appeared in Galveston before the reputation
of W. J. Florence as a distinguished actor
is that which drew the large audience under
such unfavorable circumstances. The play,
though pointing a strong moral, isnot over-
burdened with interesting plot, its chief
aim being to give prominence to the charac-
ter of Piuto Perkins, one of the Eli family,
given to the harmless diversion of stretch-
ing an imaginative genius to the utmost
tension. While the character is of course
somewhat exaggerated, a dramatic license
in adapting characters found in every day
life to the stage, it is nevertheless a very cor-
rect picture, and Mr. Florence looks and
acts what might be regarded as
the author's conception to perfec-
tion. It is a play reminding one
somewhat of the late John T. Kaymond
and his Colonel Sellers, it is a comedy of
the pure and refined type, shorn of the
farcical element with which the comedies
of the present day very generally abound,
yet full of fun and humor from the begin-
ning to tlie closc. Mr. Florence's Pinto
Perkins, the governor, is irresistibly funny,
und the man who finds nothing in it to
laugh at must be of an exceedingly dyspep-
tic temperament. His rare flights of im-
agination and proclivity for harmless lying
are the chief attraction of (he play, and his
naturalness of manner, typical inake-np
and excellent acting are the attributes that
tiave justly won for him the reputation that
lie bears. Mrs. Florence as Matilda Starr,
the romantic authoress, is very clever in
lier role and shares with her husband the
fun-provoking honors of the play.
The company supporting these two stars
is an exoellent one throughout, and consti-
tute au attraction very far above the aver-
age of anything that has appeared here this
season.
To-night will he presented as a farewell
engagement The Mighty Dollar, the play in
which Florence has won a world-wide rep-
utation. Those who admire clean cut com-
edy, rare and enjoyable, sliouid not fail to
Bee Mr. Florence 111 this performance.
The next attraction at the Tremont, com-
mencing to-morrow night, will be Brady's
dramatization of Rider Haggard's popular
novel She. Miss Anna Boyle, who plays the
part of She, supported T. %V. ICeene, the tra-
gedian, for two years, and shared the honors
of every representation of this popular
actor.
The Medical Branch.
Though the university regents visited
Galveston some months ago and inspected
the slto offered the state by the city for tho
location of tho proposed medical branch of
the state university, which is to be located
at Galveston, they have not yet submitted
their report and consequently nothing has
yet been done in the location of this build-
ing. The site offered the state for the build-
ing of the medical branch was the half
block, the other half of which is occupied
by the Sealy hospital and the old frame hos-
pital building now used as a medical school.
JThe location of these buildings would force
the medical branch upon the rear portion
of tho block, entirely hiding it except from
the bay approach. Besides this, the build-
ing of the medical branch upon this block
Would so thoroughly consume all the block
as to leave no recreation grouud for the ex-
ercise of convalescents—a very Important
adjunct to every well-equipped hospital.
Honce it is understood that tne regents ob-
ject to this site and will probably
recommend that the medical branch be loca-
ted upon some other site, but still contigu-
ous to the Sealy hospital, where they will
have plenty of room for the buildings and
grounds for convalescents The state has
Si far appropriated but $50,000' for the
building of a medical branch, a sum not re-
garded Miflicieut to erect such a building as
r.hould be constructed by the state for this
purpose. Au effort will probably be made
by the next legislature to increase the
amount to at least $7.1,000. This done the
city is disposed to meet the state half way,
anil will doubtless contribute another and a
more desirable site, and. making the Sealy
hospital a part of their gift, will he con-
tributing i'.a much in t;i:-> behalf, if not
moro, than is being contribuled by the
state.

Don't Care to Be Speaker. ^
Colonel Walter Gresham, re-elected to the
legislature from this district, has received
several letters from re-elected members who
served with him in the Twentieth legisla-
ture, urging him to become a candidate for
speaker of the Twenty-first legislature, and
pledging him the support of the western
part of the state. To all such solicitations
Colonel Gresliam has replied that while ap-
preciating the honor, etc., they would con-
fer, be must beg to decline their proffered
support for speaker. He says he has neither
the voice or the knowledge of parliamentary
usage to lit him for such a position; beside
he would much prefer to remain upon the
floor, for as speaker his usefulness in the
support of any measure is very meusure-
ably curtailed. Furthermore, he desired to
put in some stroug licks for Galveston
which he could not do as speaker. If the
Twenty-fli st legislature desires to honor this
section with the speakership of the house,
Hon. Guy M. Bryan is regarded as a gentle-
man eminently fitted for that position.
No Moro Census Taking.
State Commissioner of Agriculture, etc.,
L. I/. Foster ha3 sent out a circular letter
to the tax assessors of the state, ono of
which has just been received by Assessor F.
McNichols of this county, informing them
that, the census feature will be eliminated
from the statistics to be gathered this year
for the state bureau of agriculture, statis-
tics and history, and that more attention
will be devoted to the gathering of agricul-
tural statistics. The great dissatisfaction
occasioned by embracing the taking of the
census in these reports, owing to tne inac-
cura :v attendant upon the work, is doubt-
less the roaaan for eliminating the census
feature.
A HORRIBLE DEATH.
A 'Longshoreman Falls Into the Hold of
an English Steamer and Mashes His
Head Into a Pulp.
About 3.30 o'clock yesterday morning, as
Tlios, Quest and other 'longshoremon were
engaged in unloading coal from tho English
steamer Katy, discharging at New wharf,
Quest lost his footing, and failing into the
hold of the vessel a distance of about twenty
feet struck his head upon a large piece of
coal, resulting in instant death, his head
being crushed in a fearful manner, and *so
mashed as to destroy all possibility of recog-
nition. Quest and a brother 'longshoreman
named Chas. Burke were on the deck of the
vessel receiving the coal as it was hoisted
up in a tub through the hatchway. About
the hour named, as tho tub was swingini
back over the hatchway to be lowered,
Quest stumbled in some way, and to save
gave way and he fell through the hatch and
to an instant and horrible death. 'Long-
slioraman Burke, who was with Quest at
the time, testified to the above facts, his
testimony being corroborated by .Tno. Reggs
and Chas. Hemis. J ustiee Spann held an
inquest and rendered a verdict of accidental
death. Quest was a man about 54 years of
age, his home being on Postofllce street, be-
tween Thirty-fifth and Thirty-sixth streets.
He had a wife, but no children.

Daily Weather Report.
Galveston, Tex.. November 20.—A great
high area overlies the central district.* and
Canadian provinces, while on its borders
two areas of low are noticed, one off the
middle Atlantic coast and the other in
southwest Texas. The storm off the At-
lantic is attended by cloudy weather, high
winds, rain and snow, while the storm in
the southwest is attended by threatening
and rainy weather, which extends pretty
well up into Texas. The amount of pre-
cipitation is as yet very light, ranging from
.02 to .42 of an inch only. Except in the
vicinity of the storm areas fair weather pre-
vails, and the temperature as compared
with Saturday morning, except in tho east
and south, is higher. In Georgia and South
Carolina it is now freezing.
The conditions favor light rains followed
by fair weather. The weather is very un-
settled and changes are likely to follow one
another in quick succession.

SULLIVAN'S CHALLENGE TO MITCHELL
AWAKENS ENTHUSIASM
Among tlie Admirers of the Slugger —
Fierce Desire to See Him It,irk at His
Old l'astimo-What Is Thought
of His Condition.
New York. November20.—[Special]— The
Sun's Boston special says: Tho all-absorb-
ing topic of conversation among the sport-
ing people of Boston is John L. Sullivan's
challenge to Charley Mitchell. As a re-
minder of "old times'
to awaken enthuslam
big fellow s admirers.
eral desire among Bostonians to seo Sulli-
van once more at his forte ol' vanquishing
men in glove contests, but in the present
instance the belief is widespread that he is
hardly strong enough as yet to undergo a
course of training for a meeting with a man
of Mitchell's caliber. Among the staunch
supporters of Sullivan the opinion is that
ho can bo trained in five weeks and be fit
and ready to give Mitchell such a trouncing
as ho never got before. A reporter who
conversed with a score of persons about the
challenge heard many conflicting opinions
as to its probable outcome. Mr. James
Ormond voiced the sentiments of the more
conservative men to whom the reporter ap-
pealed: "I must confess that I was sur-
prised when I read the challenge. I did not
expect to hear of such a move on Sullivan's
part for some tinio. Sullivan knows his
condition better than anybody else. If he
thinks himseltstrong enough to undertake
a task of the kind he proposes ho certainly
must bo in first-class shape, and assuming
that lie is all right it is hardly necessary to
say that I think he is capable of making
good anything he claims."
Mr. James Colville has not a very hlgli
opinion of Mitchell's abilities. "I think
Sullivan is all right," said Mr. Colville.
"He can easily best Mitchell in eight rounds.
Mitchell can't whip Jack Dempsey in eight
or ten rounds, and I am willing to bet $1000
he can't whip Jack McAuliffe in eight
rounda either."
Mr. Gleason, George Smith and Billy
Mahoney are of the belief that Sullivan can
whip Mitchell with gloves. A clab man
who is well known as a liberal patron of the
fistic art, but who does not want his name
to appear, said: "I feel quite certain that
nothing will come of Sullivan's proposi-
tions. I do not think Sullivan, after what
he has passed through, can gain a condition
in five weeks' time to whip the English
boxer."
Dr.W. E. Crockett, who has been treating
John L. for some weeks past, said yester-
day: "Let me tell you in the beginning that
people are mistaken entirely regarding Mr.
Sullivan's condition. His trouble was not in
his legs but was in the body. The trouble
which produced the numbness in tho hips
and cut off the current of vitality to the
legs and tho stoppage of nerve circulation
induced by this ntimbness was not sufficient
to produce trouble in the hip joint but
passed along and affected the muscles in
the legs between the hip joint and knee and
part below. At my first examination I de-
cided to overcome as soon as possible this
obstruction in the body at tho nip. This I
succeeded in doing by the massage treat-
ment or, as it might, also be called, magnetic
treatment, and just in proportion to the
freedom of tho nerve circulation between
tho head and tho hip will depend the
strength of tho legs. Aside from this one
strength ot tno legs, Asiue irom tms one
trouble I consider Mr. Sullivan a better man
at present than ever before."

Washington, November 20.—O'Connor,
the oarsman who defeated Teemer yester-
day, will leave here about the middle of the
week for San Francisco, whence ho expects
to sail for Australia to meet the craclc
rowers of that country. It is understood
here that St. John, who has backed many
oarsmen, intends to challenge O'Connor (or
a race with Gaudaur and it is possible that
the two men may meet at San Francisco
before O'Connor sails for Australia.

THE PRESIDENT AT OAKVIEW
Preparing His Message- Spending; a Pleas-
ant Time.
New York, November 20.—[Special]—
The World's Washington special says: "The
president and Mrs. Cleveland have passed a
quiet but very pleasant week. The presi-
dent made up his mind several days ago
that ho couid work best on his forthcoming
message at Oakview, and therefore gathered
up the draft of his departmental reports and
established himself at his desk in a little
drawing room at Red Top. He has made two
or three flying trips to the white-house to
meet prominent people who have asked for
appointment with him, but Lamont has
been charged with the usual duties of the
executive office.
"Mrs. Cleveland has remained at Oakview
with her husband and has given her atten-
tion to preparat ions for the winter, which
have to be "made even in this latitude to
save tender flowers and shrubs from the
sharp attacks of Jack Frost."

MEXICAN ITEMS.
of
The Lower California of Ensonada
November 1 has the following items:
General Manager Scott has ordered a new
steam artesian well-boring outfit with
which he proposes to have several wells
sunk at each settlement between hero and
Sau Quintin.
A contract has been made by the govern-
ment with the Mexicana, a eonipany formed
in Europe to buy lands and work mines in
Mexico, and which is represented here by
Mr. Richurd Kent, for the sale of 1,200,000
hectares (2,904,000 acres) of tho public lnnds.
The price paid is 21 cents a lecture, or about
8>< cents an acre, which amounts to $252,000,
payable in Mexican bonds and in three an-
nual payments of $84,000 each.
The northeastern part of this territory
lies between the Colorado river and the
principal mountain chain.
Great preparations aro being made for
the Christmas festivities at Qucretaro.
These are nlways very fine and largely at-
tended. It is supposed that excursion
trains will then run from this capital and
other places to the city of Queretaro.
A new stocking factory has just been in-
augurated at Puebla. s
A most horrible crime has been committed
at tho Uruafa farm, Mlehoacan. Jacinto
Cornejo and his mother lived alone in a
cabin. One night lately cries were heard
at that place. The neighbors entered the
lonely hut and there found the old woman
dead. She had three wounds, one of which
ended lier days. From all of the surround-
ing circumstances it is known that tho son
committed tho deed. He was captured and
hurried to jail, it being feared that
he would be lynched by tlio enraged neigh-
bors.
That tired, languid feeling and dull hoadaolie
is very disagreeable. Tako two of Carter's
Little Liver Pills before retiring, and you will
tiud relief. They never fail to do <o«d.
PANIC AMONG NEGROES
In Cortain Farts of Tennessee Owing to the
Aetiou of ltegulators.
Chattanooga, Tcun., November 20.—A
drummer for a wliolosale grooer of thi .
city is just in from a trip through Smith
Jackson and Clay counties. IIo says a veri-
table panic exists thero over the operations
of a band of regulators by whom the
nogrocs are alono molested. Tho organiza-
tion appears to have its headquarters at
Carthage, Smith county, but others assert
tho regulators are located in Tompkius-
ville, Ky., just over tho bordor. About two
months ugo notices to leave or stop certain
practices were chalked oil doors of many
colored people, particularly along the bot-
toms of the Cumberland river. No atten-
tion was paid to tho notices. Last week
a score of men surrounded the house
of the Hicks family, near Gloddaco,
and calling him out, tied liini to a tree and
built a fire about him. The flames were not
allowed to touch him, though he was heat-
ed up pretty well. He was then released,
and ran into his house with a dozen smart
licks from a whip on his legs. Several
others have been whipped very severely,
and some of them threatened with hanging
if their offenses were repented. The vic-
tims generally have been accused of bteal-
ing. _
SIR CHAS. TUPPER'S REPLY
To Chas. Afnrehlson Made Public—IIo Did
Not Commit Himself.
Ottawa, Ont., November 20.—Sir Charles
Tupper's reply to Charles F. Murchison.
who wrote him nt tho same time Minister
West was addressed, is now published for
tlio first time. It is as follows:
London, Octobor 5.—Dear Sir: I esteem it
a high compliment that your letter of tho
5th ultimo should have bsen addressed to
me. and I may say it was sent on to me here
by my son in Ottawa. My official position
as representative of Canada in Great Britain
makes it quite impossible, however, for me
to offer any opinion on the question you
raise, as I am sure on reflection you will im-
mediately comprehend. As you will lie
aware the hope Is uttermost in everybody's
mind that the matters in dispute lietwecn
the two countries may soon be disposed of
in a manner satisfactory to both, and your
knowledge and public opinion in Canada
will show you that Canadians are most de-
sirous that their relations with tho United
States should be of the most cordial and
friendly character. I am yours, faithfully,
Charles Titper.

A REMARKABLE CASE.
Tlio Well-Known Carlsbad Sprudel Salt, Pro-
cured from the Natural Springs of Car!*-
bad, Better than Any of tlio ,So-Called
Blood Purifying Kemedles.
The cashier of M. Guggenheim's Sons, fl6 anp
1)8 Franklin street, ono of tho 1 urgest imo«K*i
houses in the United States, writes under datr
of June IIO, 1838, a3 follows:
For years 1 have suffered from ulmoosaea
which always formed on the back of my neck,
and had to be cut from time to time to obtain
relief, f used all sorts of blood purifiers, but
without avail. The abscesses would always re-
appear. 1 suffered very much pain until my
physician advised me to use the genuine im-
ported Carlsbad Sprudel Salts (powder foira).
1 used this for about four weoks, and since that
time I have been entirely free from the disease.
My complexion cleared, and I have enjoyod
good health ever since. 1 can not speak too
highly of (his really valuable remedy, and have
recommended it to all my friends, who aiaa
speak of its wonderful effects as a laxative.
Yours very respeefully,
I. MKYBOO.
I)r. A. L. A. Toboldt, In a paper read before
the Ninth International Medical Congress
speaks of the genuine imported Carlsbad Spru-
del Salt (powder form), ns follows:
My experience w ith the Carlsbad Sprudel Sail
Powder in constipation, diseases of the stomach,
liver and kidneys, diabetes, gout, rheumatism,
etc. has been such that I may truly say, that
no remedy which I have ever used has given me
so much pleasure and prollt as this particular
one.
Dr. Lustig, in his book on the action of Carls-
bad Water, says:
1 may here state that in chronic abdominal
ailments, constipation, gastric catarrh, dyspep-
sia, diseases of the stomach, liver and kidueva,
diabetes, gout and rheumatism, wo know of no
more efficacious, rational or simpler remedy
than the Carlsbad Mineral Water and tho
Carlsbad Sprudel Salt. A person can at
any time of tho year, without the least inter-
ruption to business, and with very little coat,
not only remove any of the above ailments out
also prevent their further development by tho
use of this remedy.
