Death Of Prof. Adoiph Schnaith.

Yesterday, September 18th, 1l:25 a.
M, died at the residence of Mr.. Harry
Tolle, 275 Garden street, Professor
Adolph Schnaith, the well known
painter and artist.
Prof. Schnaith was born at Tubing
ell, southern Germany. March ii, 1854,
received a thorough education and
passed his examination for the Ger
man postal and telegraph service in
1871 and remained in the government
service till 1876, when his parents
died. He spent his inheritance in
studying art painting and drawing)
at the renowned art schools OF, Munich
and Rome. The years from 1S77-1SS3,
he spent in Paris, Vienna, Berlin,
Rome, Munich and gsburg. Being
an able German writer, he was also
art critic and correspondent for sew
eral leading German journals. In
August 1885, he left Germany and
came to America, where he went to
Detroit, Mich, but after a month or
so, took up his residence at India
napolis, where he established an art
school, but being attacked by a pull
monary disease, sought the healthier
climate of southwest Texas and came
to San Antonio in October, 1885.
He opened an art studio here and
was also drawing teacher at the Ger
man English school.
In March, 1887, he arranged and di-
rected the Costume Festival at the
Casino, and having, while at Indian
apolis, managed the production of the
opera "Beggar Student" he con-
ceived the idea of producing Strauss
merry War" in this city.
This opera was performed by local
amateurs under his able management
and direction at Turner hall on No
vember 18th and 18th, and at the
Grand opera house on December 18th,
and was great artistic success, but a
financial failure.
Last June he went to Aus
tin, where he acted as stage director
and artistic manager of the opera
"Stradella," which was given by the
Austin Musical Union, but he re-
turned exhausted and was unable to
do any work since. He went to BOerne
for recreation, but in vain. He re-
turned twelve days ago and has not
risen from his bed since. Professor
Schnaith was master in every branch
of his art and his death in the prime
of his life is to be greatly regretted.
He died of consumption, and the flu
neral took place this morning at 10
o'clock.

In 1865, as chairman of the platform

resolution
THAT this government was made
by white men, and, so far as we have
the power to preserve it, it shall con-
tinue to be government of white

"the negro is a prolific animal" is
