A FuIl-grown Babe Taken Upon the Stage

Professor A. E. Carpenter gave an ex
hibition of his powers to hypronize quite
a number of subjects last night at the
Institute Hall, which was instructive,
curious and amusing.
One young man was induced to believe
that he was the fond mother of a two
year old babe. The mother lifted his
imaginary skirts, went down into the
audience, seized full grown man, car
ried him upon the stage, fed him by hand
and spanked him.
That was the most humorous as well
as the most realistic scene, but there
were others more or less diverting.

EDITOR EVENING LIanr:

EDITOR EVENING LIGHT:
| Your informant was In error when he
reported me-in my remarks at the union
service at the opera house on Thanksgiv-
ing day-as having named Mr.. WOlfson
| as the MOST liberal. charitable citizen
and merchant OF San Antonio" | did
| not design making any such comparison
| and | am sure Mr.. WOlfSOu would not
thank me had done so. What did say,
| or what | intended TO have said, was that
| Mr.. WOltSOn was among the most gener-
Gus gentlemen had ever known; and in
saying this it was not my purpose to
compare him with other citizens of San
Antonio. to derOgate from the liberality
OF any other man or in any sense to re-
fleet upon others of Our people, many Of
whom are equally as generous and unSelf-
iSh in their charities as is he. During five
years paStOrate in San Antonio | have
had occasion so often to go before her
people with this, that, or the other claim
for public or private benevOlence that |
have sometimes been tempted to believe
that more than my share of this character
of work had fallen to my lot But have
been encouraged in it by the cordial lib
eraiity with which | have always been
met. Nowhere have | ever found more
generous men and women than here;
nowhere will people more quickly and I'M
SeltiShly respond to appeals for charity
than in San Antonio. Among the very
first, however. to give, and give literally.
and mOdestly too, with no display, with
no desire that his right hand shall
know what his left hand is do
ing, is the gentleman whose name |
incidentally mentioned in connection with
the subscription for the Orphans Home,
at the opera house, on Thursday last. Mr..
WolfSOn does not stop to ask what is a
mans religion or whether he has any re-
IigiOn, whether he is Jew or Christian; all
he wants to known is that the case is a
deserving one and his pocket book is
open.
But Mr.. WOlfson does not stand alone
as benevolent man and generous giver
TO laudable and worthy objects of charity,
though he does occupy a prominent place
in the very front rank. There are many

the circumstances it is proper to state
that Mr.. l.. WOlfSOn, Mr.. Charles E.
Hicks, Mr.. A. c. Schryyer and Mr.. Henry
ElmendOrf each contributed $50 to the
Thanksgiving collection to the Orphans
Home, and it is also proper to state that
