will show how the company is appreciated:
The crew consisted of as pretty seler-
ton of juveniles as ever graced stage, and
they sang superbiy well. The introduc-
ton of the grand march showed how much
a simple change, artistically made, may
add to the attraction of the piece. The
hearty applause of the audience attested
an instant success. The Dick Deadeye

Drunk Again.


Mrs. Alice Wright. who has figured
frequently in the police courts for being
drunk. appeared yesterday morning before
Justice Hayden, and swore out warrant
against her son, William Wright. charging
him with committing an assault on her
with a weapon of some kind, striking her
in the back of the head causing the blood
to flow freely. The warrant was given
Officer Brennan to serve, but before ne
could do so, he encountered Mrs, Wright,
who by this time had got Rloriously under
the influence. John locked her up
the armory to sober up. Last evening
she was brought before Justice Hayden,
and in the meantime her son William had
been notified to appear and was on hand to
answer the charge preferred by his moth
er. He denied the charge; said he had
not struck his mother; that he had not
only not done so, but had always borne
with her no matter what her condition In
this he was sustained by his sister, a very
lady like, person. who said very quietly
that the charge was untrue. The court
was convinced the charge was not true
and dismissed the suit at plaintiffs cost
Mrs. Wright was then tried for drunk
eness and was fined So and costs-the fine
and costs in the two suits amounting to
$3.50. She paid 1925 and was taken to
the Armory to stay until balance was paid
This woman is nuisance to our officers
and Justices and disgrace to her family.
Her husband is a hard working, frugal
man, and her son and daughter respect
able. The daughter is a quiet, ladyIike
girl. and on more than one occasion has
paid her mothers fine for drunkenness.
How humiliating it must be for the hus
band and children Of this woman, to see
the wife and mother spectacle of beastIy
intoxication on the streets And what les
son there is in the conduct of the husband
and children, who in spite of all comment,
cling to the mother with as much tender
ness as if she were an exemplary parent.
There is a sad lesson in this case.

introduced Under the ChnnRcd KnIes.

WASHINGTON, April 9.-The object OF the
amendment to the rules presented In the House
to-day was to guard against the passage Of an
improper appropriation bill. without considera-
ton. under suspension OF the rules. BY in
crcasing tho number of votes necessary to pass
IL from two-thrds to thrce-fourths Of all the
members present the members ofthe Committee
on Commerce considered the proposed amend
ment direct attack upon the River and Hnrbor
bill. The friends OF internal improvements
were greatly alarmed. and they defeated the
proposal Long speeches of no earthly interest
TO any but members Of the House were made.
Gar field offered an amendment 90 the Commit
tees report providing that rule 100. which de-
clares that no provision in any Appropriation
bill or amendment thereto changing existing
law shall be In order except such ~ are ger

duce expenditure. be further amended 50 that
no provision in any Appropriation bill which
changes existing law shall be in order.
Mr.. Randall went upon the floor to do battle
aguinst GHrneld's appointment. The Speaker
said that under rule 100, ns It stands, the
House. in the Forty fourth Congress. had re-
duced the expenditures Of the Government
800 600 OOO. He advocated changes in existing
law every time that money could be saved by
making the changes without dctriment 10 pub
Garnods object in presenting his amend
ment WAS TO cut of tho new Legislation proposed
By the DrmOcrnts. His scheme was defeated by
party vote Various amendments TO the Com;
voted upon. The Committee on Commerce was
| authorized to report at any time. Mills Of Texas
embodied in an amendment n proposal that the
| Committees of Ways and Means. Bankn and
| Currency. and Coinage. Weights and Measures
be empowered to report TO the House Mt any
| time. To the intense disgust Of the hard money
members. this proposal was carried. The soft
money Republicans and Democrats outnum-
| bered the champions OF honest money. few
| notwithstanding Democrats who are hard
money men. voted for the amendment for rea-
sons which they cannot satisfactorily explain.
The new rule simply gives the three commit
tees named power To deluge the House with a
mass OF bills to tinker the finances. change the
