What the Press has to say !;
Annie Abbott, the Little Georgia
Magnet, upset more kingdoms
yesterday than all the armies of
Great Britain have ever done. She
had the Emperors of Russia
Germany and Austria, the Kings
Of Greece, Roumania, Belgium,
Italy and Sweden piled upon one
chair, and as If to illustrate what
America could do, lifted the entire
mass Of mighty monarchs and up.
set them into an awful heap Of
ruins. There were present besides
those named above, and every one
took an active part in the
seance, the Prince and Prin-
cess of Wales, the Duke
and Duchess of E%dinburg, the Gar
ina Of Russia, the Expresses Of
Germany and Austria, the Queens
of Greece, Belgium, Sweden and
Denmark, Roumania, the King and
Queen of Italy and a long list Of
Dukes and Duchesses, Princes and
Princesses, all assembled as the
guests of the Emperor of Russia.
1t was a happy thought to invite
the Little Magnet to entertain
them. 1t is said she gave full vent
to her American independence and
handled the aggregation of royalty
without gloves" so to speak.

very few young actresses now be-
fore the public who can be said to
have a great future before her,
Last season was her first in this

ian descent, and like most Romans
possesses a wonderful amount OF
fire and magnetism. She will ap-
pear here in a new play, "The story
of a Kiss" from the French OF
Emile lola. The part is a very pow
erful one, and will give her scope

AUSTIN, Tex, Feb. Z, 1894.
To the San Antonio Light.
The citizens of Austin are now
busily engaged in arranging the
preliminary matters looking for
the giving Of another grand regatta
in this city next June. Soliciting
committees are in the field now to
secure the necessary amount of
money and their success up to to-
day goes to prove the regatta is a
surety. Captain Jack Crotty, of
Galveston, who is in charge of the
movement, is here in active work.
ing trim. Ho says that he is
assured of the success of
the movement. He has let
ters from all the prominent
oarsmen who attended the last
regatta held here a year ago, who
assure him that they are only
waiting an opportunity to return.
Crack oar teams from st. Louis,
Chicago, New Orleans, Ontario,
Cincinnati, Brooklyn and several
other points have written for places
during the week. Richard X. Fox,
Of New York, is taking marked in
terest in the movement. He has
written Captain Crotty that he
wants him to arrange a race for
his five thousand dollar champion
cup which he will offer to the win
ner of any single scull race.
In addition to this prize there
will be quite a number of one, two
and three thousand dollars first
prize and three times that number
of second and third prizes. From
present indications and from the
number of advance bookings even
at this early date, it seems that the
regatta will have to continue at
least ten days and possibly two
weeks, as the program cannot well
be made out for a less time. The
committee will arrange it this
year so that there will be no
admission charged to e the re-
gatta. When the stranger reaches
the city he will be a public guest.
He a go to the regatta every day,
see every race and need not pay
one cent outside of his hotel bill
which is guaranteed to be the very
lowest on record. In consideration
of all this fact, the committee feel
assured that thousands will visit
US during the regatta, and the
man in TaXas who misses being in
Austin during the June regetta
will miss the opportunity Of a life

PUBLIC MARKET U
A Mass Meeting to be Called in
The Near Future.

Alderman Hice, Of the Third
ward, is today circulating a petit
ton among the citizens living
near Milan square, for s%ubscrip-
tions toward erecting a public
market house on this plaza, which
will cost, if built, in the neighbour
hood Of $4,000. A mass meeting
will be called during the first part
of next week and the matter will
be definitely settled.
About thirty-five citizens have
been seen by Mr.. Hice, and each
have agreed 70 donate sums for
the building, amounting from 500
to $1,000. If the entire amount can
be raised by subscription, the
market house will be constructed
and donated to the City Of San
Antonio, to be used as the public
place for marketing. In case tho
entire amount is not subscribed,
the matter will be laid before the
City Council for an appropriation
of the amount deficient.

OF pretty girls and picturesque ccs-
TUNES, handsome. manly fellows in
corduroy suits and sealshin caps. The
women have chance for more variety
than the men, as they are not afraid
to appear in a costume that is a little
different from their neighbor, while q
man feels like a cat in a strange gar
ret 1t he departs from the conventional
suit worn by old and young alike. A
striking costume worn by a dashing
brunette was Of red broadcloth; it was
trimmed with immense black buttons
Of Persian lambs wool. which dotted
the hem of the skirt in most irregu-
lar but fetching manner The coat
was OF broadcloth with lambs wool
sleeves and collar and it was fastened
with these enormous buttons. The head
covering was a jaunty little turban Of
red felt, trimmed with a narrow band
of lambs wool and black ostrich tips.
A beautifully fair girl, without trace
of color in her pale but singularly at
tractive face. was also attired in red,
which was equally becoming on account
Of the delicate gray, fluffy fur which
trimmed the short cape and skirt. She
wore a large, 1aring hat Of red, covered
with gray and red tips and her hat pins
were Of silver. Around her waist was
an antique silver belt and the stick,
with which she pushed herself along,
had a beautiful handle of silver. The
skirts worn are, Of course. short, Civ

leggings, but they are so very unbecom-

with disfavor. The accepted costume
for men consists Of the knee breaches
Of corduroy, brown being the favorite
color. Leather leggings are considered
very swell. and are a perfect godsend
to many who otherwise would have to
deny themselves the donning of the
knee breaches. A short sack coat of
corduroy completes the costume, the in

he chooses. The cap is Of seaskin,

and many of the women wear sealskin,

There is this winter a great stir made
down East to revive and improve the
somewhat obsolete but withal delight
full sport Of skating with sail attach
ment. This pastime is somewhat dam
gerOus, as most participants are over
anxious to carry too large Il canvas.
Members of the sail skating clubs are
now considering Il great many improved
models for these sails. with Il view of
regulating the sizes to be carried. The
most popular model for the sails used
at present is triangular one, rugged On
strong but extremely light and tough
wood. Many of them have a contri-
vance by which the skater can take in
or let out reef as the case demands.
Another style offered is provided with
a light pole which serves as a drag.
used to enable the skater to make quick
turns or slacken his speed.
It requires great strength and endur-
ance to carry even q moderate sized
sail. but the larger the sail the more ex-
citing the sport. Splendid strength i'll
wrists and arms is an Indispensable
qualification for a skating cruiser, rs
well as a steady and quick foot. Few
who have not indulged in this delight
full sport can realize the tremendous
speed attained even in a very moderate
breeze, or Of the difficulty in handling
a sail so as to receive the most benefit
with the least eXertiOn. There are few
plettier sights to be seen on a bright
cold winter day than fotilla Of skat-
ers with their snow white sails bullying
before stiff breeze as they come dash
ing over the glistening surface Of the
course.
1t can be safely asserted that Of all
known modes of locomotion sailing on
skates comes nearer to flying than any
thing hitherto attempted. The only
serious drawback to its indulgence rs
that it requires a good deal of space and
that ordinary skaters can scarcely take
any comfort where these living yachts
are flying about. as 4 collision with onc
of them is far from pleasant.
The Kick Push Sled.
An entirely new feature, which from
its novelty and simplicity of construc-
ton is bound to become very popular,
is a kind of running sledge that is in
tended to supplement the snowshoe

that is novel or can be turned to ac-
count for his pet hobby, the perfection
OF the German army. His latest move
is the introduction of snowshoes for the
use Of his soldiers in the northern Dart
Of the empire. Last week the sharp
shooters of the Brandenburg garrison
appeared for the first time with this
novel equipment. One division was on
skates and the other on snowshoes,
and mock battle was fought on the
River Spree, near the woods of Lueb-
benau. The fight was very spirited
While it lasted and many comical mis-
haps not down on the programme kept
the emperor in excellent humor. The
sight Of half Il dozen pike-helmeted SOL
,diers standing on their heads in a
snow drift wildly waving their snow
shoes in the air caused lots of fun.
The maneuvers ended with an attack
upon Altzauche village, which was car
ried by storm by the snowshoe battal-
ion.
Emperor William has had several
pairs Of splendid snowshoes sent him
from Stockholm, and presumably in
preparation for the approaching general
maneuvers this winter. is assiduously
