white-mass within, welding huge ladies'
at the caustic pots, ralting, straining
and laboring in a terrific heat and glare
and amid sickening fumes. A man
steps back from the furnace now and
again and lowers the muller from his
mouth to gasp more freely in the chill
air, and you can see his face, arms and
chest shining with the sweat.
Figures are to be seen by day which
are scarcely recognizable as men, with
great goggles over their eyes and huge

their mouths and neclxs. These are the

glad; yes, upon the whole she was very
glad. She knew she had treated the
honest, loving young fellow like a
selfish, heartless coquette; she knew
she had half broken his fond, faithful
heart with her airs, and graces, and
false smiles, once upon a time.

Pertinent Points.

Corcoran street that runs from
Commerce street through Market
street to the river, is naturally a
valuable relevant to the traffic of
Commerce street, but it is in bad
and dangerous condition, which
could be relieved by few dollars
expense, and this should unques-
tiOnably be done at the earliest op-
portunity. At the same time some
alderman should enquire why the
sidewalks and streets of such an
important street as Market street
were not in good condition.

GRAND OPERA HOUSE.
The Country Squire" Given to a
Well Satisfied House.

Inc 'COuuGry squire, SlVeh W u
Well Satisfied House.
The "Country Squire" with
Archie Boyd in the title role, APP
peared before a good audience last
night and was very enthusiastical-
ly received. The presence Of Mr..
Boyd last year in "The Old Home
stead" had not been forgotten, and
the fine reputation that he then
earned among San Antonio thea
ter goers was fully sustained in
last nights performance. The
great charm Of Boyd's acting is in
it's essential naturalness. There is
no maudlin sentiment, no strain
ing after effects, but a simple,
large-hearted, open-minded natur-
alness that we'll reveals the gener-
Gus "Country SQUIRE" whose
familiarity with nature in her
large moods has given him broad
and deep humanitarianism of soul
that seems incapable Of anything
unkind or ungenerous. He is OF
necessity the center of the piece,
and the interest that centers
in him never weakens.
His delightful biunders, all
the result of unacquain-
lance with the routine OF city life,
are constant source of amuse-
ment, while the pathos and deep
feeling of his nature move the very
best sensibilities of the human
heart. His support is good. The
singing of his farm hands was eXcep-
tionally we'll rendered, and all the
little by play of the situation clev-
er and natural. There is an I'M
conscious humor and at times a
real wit in some of the old
"Squire's" sayings and comments
that are very smile-prOvoking. No
one can see the play and fairly en-
ter into it's spirit without feeling
all those kindly feelings aroused
that are supposed to be peculiarly
appropriate to this season of "gOOd
will" 1t will be given again to-
night, to be followed tomorrow
