AMUSEMENT NOTES.
Coming- Events [on the Stage, and jMiscel
laneous Mention.
1 lie arrangements for the appearance
of Miss Clara Louise Kellogg’s Company
in San Antonio, have been completed.
She will appear at an early date.
Messrs Baker and Farron will be tbe
next attraction at Turner LI all.
Mr. Cyril Searle will appear at Turner
Hall shortly in Gilbert’s "Sweethearts.”
He will play hie original character
which was given by him for 120 consec
utive nights in New York. Mias Agnes
Jenn and a carefully trained company
of local talent will support him.
A complimentary concert was given to
Mra. 1.. F. Deane last evening at the
Casino Hall, which, th .ugli poorly at
tended, was an enjoyable entertain
ment. The duet ’ Hom* ’to our Moun
tains,” being espeialiv well rendered];
the solos of Mrs F HertL Mrs. Dr.
Favre being aa faultless ns usual. Mr.
Mark's violin solo "Souvenir de Haydu”
was enthusiastically applauded. and
the other members were all highly ap
preciated.
On Tuesday. March Itltb. “lngomar”
will be given at turner Hall by
a talented couivany of amateurs
from Austin, Texas. “lngomar”
will be sustained by Mr. Isaac
Melaskey and Mies Lillian Hollingsworth

ter Miss Hollingsworth has shown such
marked histrionic talent that she has re
ceived tbe highest encomiums from the
press and tbe theatrical profession. As
Miss Hollingsworth is a former resident
of San Antonio, it is to be hoped she
will receive a hearty welcome.
*
This evening Rev. H. R. Coleman will
deliver a lecture on the “Holy Land.”
for the benefit of Masonic charities in
San Antonio.
Miss Emma Abbott intends to revive
“Paul and Virginia” on a grand scale

Bill Nye. and James W. Riley, the
Hoosier poet, have joined forces in an
entertainment.
*
Blind Tom, although almost forgotten,
still gives concerts, but he seldom, or
never, appears in populous centres.
Left the Engine.
St. Loris, March 12—The only other
event of the day worthy of special note
was the abandonment of the Washing
ton accommodation train. This train
runs from here to Washington. 60 miles
west, and was hauled off on Tuesday.
It was concluded to restore it this even
ing, and it started out at 6 o'clock with
Engineer Frank Drayer 1n tbe cab and a
full load of passengers. Everything
went well until it reached Summit Ave
nue station. Drayer then left tbeengine
and tbe train was soon run back to the
Union Depot and the engine taken
to the round house. It is said that
Grayer’s abandonment of his en
gine was voluntary, nobody having
solicited him to leave it. ' If this
is a fact, it clearly indicates
that the engineers have concluded not to
run freight trains. The engineers, tire
men and brakemen held a meeting thia
afternoon, but what they did is not yet
known. They will give no information
to tbe press. Outside rumor has it that
Chief Sargeant, of Chicago, head of tbe
Firemen’s Brotherhood, has been sent
for. and that he will be here to-morrow
to assist tbe men in determining what
course they shall pursue in regard to the
strike. It is alleged that numerous ap
plications for work are being made at
different railroad depots, and that the
officials feel encouraged that they will be
able to employ a good force of men, bi.t
no definite information on this point can
be obtained. The through passenger
traffic of the Missouri Pacific is entirely
unobstructed. All their trains leave here
promptly and go through on time.
The Knights Weakening.
Galveston, March 12. —Master Work
man Farmer, of District Assembly 78,
Knights of Labor, arrived to-day. This
completes the District Executive Board,
which has convened here to finally settle,
one way or tbe other, the troublesome
Mallory boycott. The Executive Com
mittee held a long interview this after
noon with President Sealy, of the Gulf,
Colorado and Santa Fe. and Captain
Sawyer, of the Mallory line Tbe situa
tion was thorougly canvassed on both
sides, and the committee took the mat
ter underdose consideration. They held
a long session to-nigbt with local assem
blies, but it is not believed any final con
clusion has been reached and other
meetings will be held. The question
being considered is the alleged violation
of tbe November arbitration agreement
and differences between the Knights and
the Mallory company seem to pivot upon
the double interpretation placed upon
that agreement. The local press publish
statements tending to confirm the grow
ing disaflection among the Knights.
There are undoubtedly quite a number
of Knights who are protesting at meet
ings of the assembly against any steps
that will interfere with traffic on the
Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe road. The
determination among Knights to Inaug
urate radical measures to enforce the
boycott la visibly less apparent to-night
than for aeveral weeka.
Commissioner’s Statement.
St. Lot ts, March 12.—A apeoial from
Sedalia to the Globe-Democrat, says that
an effort was made there to-day to send
out a freight train, but it was frustrated
by Engineer Paul Smith and Fireman
Robert Myers leaving tbe engine at tbe
request of tbe Knlghta of Labor. Shortly
afterwards Engineer Perry and several
of the strikers seized tbe engine, ran
down the track and drew its fire. It
waa then returned to the round-house.
State Labor Commissioner Kachtltzky
was in the city to-day and witnessed
this performance, which he announced
as an act of violence. He also aaid: “I
came here to investigate matters. I met
Superintendent Sibley and the Execu
tive Committee of the Knights of Labor
thia morning, and shall confer to night
with a number of employes of the com
pany who have suspended work, but are
opposed to the strike. I leave for Jef
ferson to-night, and shall probably go to
St. Ixiuis to-morrow. Ido not care to
express myself on the situation, beyond
saying that I think the strike uncalled
for. I shall submit my report to Gover
nor Marmaduke, and be can take anch
action as he may deem proper.”

ABOUT THE STREETS.
The City Should put Down the Curbs and
Make Sidewalks Possible.
Editor San Antonio Light.’
San Antonio, March 12.—1 n my rami
fications through the city to-day. 1
have been accosted frequently and ap
plauded tor opening up the curb ques
tion, and "go ahead give us more light
on the subject, was the universal request.
The curb to some people may be of but
little moment, but I can tell them it is
of vast Importance to the City of San
Antonio. It Is not very pleasant to make
a sidewalk without a curb, still it can be
done. It we intend to make this
city as famous as the name It
bears, "the Alamo City,” we must
have good sidewalks and plenty of them.
No city In the world has better natural
facilities than San Antonio- Ift he same
vim that was demonstrated during the
French administration had been con
tinued under tbe present administration,
ban Antonio would to-day have been
second to no city in the I nion for street
improvements. The many capitalists
and invalids that come to enjoy this
salubrious climate, would be in
creased tenfold did our street* and
avenues have continuous sidewalks
where they could promenade and
inhale the invigorating breezes and see
the gardens with the blooming rose and
green sward in the winter months,
where but a few days before they left
their native hills in’ the North, covered
with sleet and snow. Although this is
somewhat apart from my subject. It can
not be denied that San Antonio
and its neighborhood cannot be equaled
in the werld for consumptive pa
tients and to those who are pre
disposed and only in tbe first
•tag-, in nine cases out of ten they will
get well. We have ample proof in our
midst to corroborate this statement,
such being tho case, tbe duty of this ad
ministration is to keep up with the
times and follow up our street improve
ments into the suburbs, and follow the
laborers into the brush, where economy
and necessity compels him to seek a re
treat adequate to his limited means.
The laborer may be passed by, and even
despised by the avaricious politician,
but on election day his vote counts one
If there is such a think as retribution
in the vocabulary, then those faithful
working men who pay taxes and have
families to support, and who are anxious
ly waiting at the corners of our streets
each day for something to do to keep
their families from starving, will cer
tainly have an opportunity of showing
their manhood on election day. Toddy
mixers and cock-fighters must not be
admitted into the administration, rea
sonable pay and short hours, and a Sun
day rest. This is indespensable for a
free people.
This can all tie done in peace and
order, and nobody hurt. Get up a good
street and sidewalk ordinance, and put
everybody to work, and we will soon
make San Antonio what she ought to be.
If the present city administration don't
fill tbe bill, let them drop out and put in
men who will, irrespective of party or
politics and all trivial law-breakers, put
them to work on the streets to clean the
mud off even if it should be the presi
dent of any. association.
Boycott Resolutions
Sacramento, Cal., March 12.—The
platform presented to the anti-Chinese
Convention, which assembled at 11
o'clock this morning, demands that tbe
Government of the United States take
immediate steps to prohibit absolutely
Chinese invasion, and appeals to people
all over the country to supplant Chinese
with white labor in all instances where
the former are employed. The resolu
tions declared that the convention was
not in favor of any unlawful methods in
getting rid of the Chinese, but pro
nounced in favor of boycotting any per
sons who employ Chinese, directly’or in
directly, or who purchase the products
of Chinese labor. Discussion on the
boycott clause continued up to 1 p. m.,
when, amid tremendous cheering, the
platform as presented was adopted. Ex-
Senator Sargent, who had strongly op
posed the boycett clause, informed the
Chairman of bis withdrawal from the
convention.

’’Mathet es” Takes Him to Task On
Several Things.
. Editor San Antonio Light.
I have read the contributions of
“Blunt” in tliv Light, and it appears to
me that his suggestion that the sewer
proposition be carried out in advance of
securing control of the water-works is
' rather chimerical. What Is the use of
our people bulldiag an expensive system
of Sewerage without first settling the
question of a walersnpply to make these
sewers of practical advantage. Why
j should we build a water works
system when be have one already?
Mr. Brackenridge may own tbe water
works. but he could not de so unless tbe
i control of the city Is acknowledged over
the water supply. Tills Is a legal ques
tion and should be first tested before
going further.
“Blunt” in a late article seems to
' have changed front and now advises the
[ defeat of the sewers because the "sewer
farm” plan was adopted. But it don't
change the water question First, let the
city bring Colonel Brackenridge
to terms before it embarks in a water
works or sewerage enterprise of its own.
The city is paying $20,000 annually for
tire hydrants, and poor ones at that, and
which are not very ornamental especi
ally when placed oa a narrow sidewalk.
The Water-works Company should agree
to flush the sewers free of charge for at
least 10 years before the city should
place itself at its mercy by building sew
ers.
“Blunt” also makes a drive at our
Hon. Mayor and I Ity Council.
These gentlemen represent our
citizens. They are chosen as tbe expo
nents of the best Interests of our city.
They have been elected at the polls by
a fair vote. They are supposed to be
morally and intellectually the reflex of
the community. To reflect on the Mayor
and Council seems to me to reflect on
file people at large, fora time at least.
'To condemn them is to condemn those
who voted for them. In my opinion
they should be regarded ns above critl
iclsm. This may be wrong, but it seefns
right anyway.
Another matter has come to my no
tice lately concerning the city printing.
It seems a small matter to make so much
of and was probably an oversight. These
officers of the city should be above such
trickery as the reports seem to imply,
aud should be given the benefit of all
doubts. They are entrusted with tbe
expenditure of other vast sums of tnonev
and ought not be harshly condemned
without a chance to explain.
