The Lion Queen.

"Theodora," a fine spectacular and
historical tragedy, arranged from the
French by the late Walter Standish,
strong in situations and dialogue,
beautiful in its stage setting, attracted
a good audience to the Grand opera
house last evening. The play is pro-
duced with the same scenery, effects
and costumes as at Niblo's theatre in
New York, which is to say the stag
ing is elaborate in high degree and
the cOstuming beautiful. Theodore
is a role that naturally leaves bad
taste in the mouth of a cultivated au-
dience, and therefore requires most
delicate handling OH the part of the
actress. She is woman with dual
character. whose natural proclivities
are all thoroughly bad, her only re-
deeming trait being her love for Fa-
bian, for whose sake she kills his
dearest friend, MaTcellus. Miss Phosa
McAllister is pretty woman, as
graceful as a deer, and as sinuous as a
serpent in her movements. She plays
Theodore with artistic finish and
clothes her tragedy in gorgeous cos
tunes, and had the honor last night
of receiving three recalls after the
fourth act, which recalls were also
shared by Mr.. Will CORTLAND,
who plays Marcellus remarkably well.
Mr.. William f. Clifton made the hit
of the evening as Fabian by his
strong, manly impersonation and good
reading. The remainder of the cast is

special to the Times-Democrat from
Greenwood, Miss, says, G. Allendale,
a suspicious looking character was ar
rested here today, on complaint of a
New Orleans detective, who charges
he was implicated in the recent Duck
hill train robbery. Among articles
found on his person were several cards
offering a reward of $1,000 for the ar
rest and detention of the same train
robbers who recently robbed a jew
elry store in Dallas, Texas. Allen
dale is named in the circular as an ac-
complete, and in his description, the
circular states his name as written in
India ink on his right arm. The pris-
Oner's name is tattoOed on his right
arm. 1t is said he formerly belonged

SAN ANTONIO, FRIDAY JANUARY A. 1880. o
A FALSE ISSUE.

The assertion that the race between
the present mayor and ex-Mayor
French for the mayoralty of this city
is a race between democratic oppo-
nents merely is misleading. True,
Callaghan and French both happen
to be democrats but there is no DEM
ocratic politics or policies involved in
the contest. 1t matters not whether
French or any other man enters. the
lists against the present dooless adj
ministration, the contests goes on all
the same and the lines drawn will not
be political. To attempt to make
them so is merely to cover up the real
issue and precipitate false one under
cover of which the Callaghan crowd
will run in their man.
There is but one issue before the
citizens, and that municipal one not
party-political one. The issue is the
perpetuation of the present irresponsi-
BILE and reckless administration Of
municipal affairs, characterized by a
perfect disregard of the charter provi-
sions and ordinances of the city, or the
overturning of that administration
aud the election of a new municipal
council and mayor. There is no use OF
talking democratic or republican
nominations for city office. The result
will simply be division of the forces
now trying to organize opposition to.
the present order and the certain and
IN off of
The friends, allies, strikers and agents
of the present administration are all
thoroughly organized. Their work is
| cut out and their efforts are continu-
Gus and far-reaching for the
accomplishment of the end
pro posed - Callaghan's reelection. :
Nothing but positive and hearty
union of all opposing forces can hope
| to make any successful resistance to
this intrenched power backed by all
| the force of four years control of city
patronage. If a republican mass
meeting is held and republican cam
| didate nominated it merely divides
so much of the republican vote as
would go to Callaghan's opponent on
| a peoples nomination, from such can
didate, andssO lessen his chances of
election. Every republican in this
city who desires Callaghan's red DC
ton will serve such desire wisely nd
will by advocating and attendif I q
republican mass meeting. Those pho
desire a new deal in municipal aft HRS
will keep aloof from all entanglemt nts
of party politics in this issue and
make the fight direct upon the pre-
sent administration on the grounds
of its hostility to the best in teres is of
the city pure and simple.

Rather Foggy.

Some idea of London fog may be
gained from the following extract
from a correspondents letter to the
London Pail Mall Gazette:
yesterdays fog was simply horri-
BILE in patches. At Queens Road,
Bayswater, at half-past six. p. M, /
had to hire a boy with a lantern to
find me hanson which was buried
in fog in the middle of the roadway.
My cabby had to walk, leading his
horse, with his lamp in his hand, close
to the kerbstone almost as far as the
Marble Arch, a distance of about two
miles. Even then he often got on the
pavement. The sound of the voices of
those lost in the fog, the ghostly glare
of the hanson lamps, which seemed
strangely far apart, and the far-away
simmer of the gas lamps, made the
frosty fog of last night a thing to
dream of, not to tell"
