The Marionattes.

The Grand opera house was packed
from pit to dome last night with an
eager audience who came to see the
Royal Marionettes and gift show which
gave its initial performance Of the
week In San Antonio last night.
The performance begins with q short
hour with magic and tricks Of legsrder-
main, which are quite new, and as
there is comedy woven In by burnt cork
artists, 1t Is q pleasing feature Of the
evening.
Then the music OF the common table
glasses Is given. familiar airs being
played by the artists Miss Gilbert and
Slgnor Giovanni.
The performance Of the Marionettes
was unique and very amusing, tending
on the Punch and Judy order Of VEN
triloqrial art, but SO artistlcally jointed
and manipulated as to become almost
life-like. After the performance, 100
presents, almost exclusively OF glass
ware. were given to those OF the undi-
encs who were lucky enough to draw
the winning numbers In the envelopes
purchased at the door.
The performance continues the entire
week, with matlnees on Wednesday
and Saturday.

WORK UNDONE
BY the West Side Union For a
Street Railway

The street railway problem was under
consideration at the meeting of the
West Side Citizens Union last evening,
and Col. Barr, manager of the street
rail way company, was present to
answer questions and say a good word
for the company.
He was asked. Twill you reduce your
street car fares to rate below centS?"
1--WE will not" was his reply, 'until
we can pay our operating expenses with
scent fare. l don't care to publish
the fact to the world, but it is neverthe-
less true that we have not paid operat-
ing expenses since the LIST OF December,
not to mention the 100000 interest on
our S2,000,000 capital. we were all
ready to build the East Seventh street
cable line but we could not get capital
lists to take hold of our bonds while that
Scent clause remained in our charter.
''Our new line on the West side Will
be completed in about three weeks, I'M
less checked by street paving. We
are extending this system as fast as
possible, but we want the peoples aid.
We cannot go on unless we have that
Scent clause stricken out. Our bust
ness now will not permit a reduction in
fares, and l came over here tonight to
have a proper understanding with you
anu 10 get you 10 IcCOIlSlucI Tile ulOtlOll
passed at your last meeting to ask re
duction in fares"
P. ID. Winchell and George B. Evans
spoke briefly on the question, wanting
the motion rescinded for the reason that
the West side street car lines would not
be extended unless this was done. In
creased transportation facilities were
needed on the West side. and both
speakers thought that the West siders
should help the company in securing
these facilities. +. +. Wilde also spoke
on the subject, urging that transfer
tickets be given from one street car
line to another.
A vote on the matter resulted in the
reconsideration of the motion asking
for reduced rates, and to clinch the ar
gument, George b. Evans introduced a
resolution thanking the street railway
company for their work already done
on the West side. and urging that the
Sixth ward aldermen do all in their
power to secure better service for the
city. Without debate the motion went
through with rush. and, thus having
annulled the work of the previous meet
ing, the union adjourned.
