Medical Views of Alcohol.

From the Philadelphia Record.
In symposium giving the opin-
ion of noted physicians on the
choice of alcoholic beverages, Dr.
S. Weir Mitchell, of Philadelphia,
and DR.. F. H. Wade, of Pittsburg,
concur in the belief that whisky
is the least injurious. Oliver
Wendell Holmes, although he
pleads that his opinion is not
BASED upon personal experiments,
favors rum sophisticated with
milk. DIR. William A. Hammond
decides that beer is the most harm
less beverage. DR.. Austin Flint
will make no choice. He declares
that alcoholic drinks should never
be taken except upon the prescrip-
ton of an able and conscientious
physician. DR.. S. n. Davis, of
Chicago, lays down the rule that as
all alcoholic drinks are injurious,
that one is preferable which con-
tains the least percentage of alco-
hol. The friends of John Barley
corn get very little encouragement
at the hands OF physicians. But
how many Of the medical fratern-
ity live up to their own teachings?

attention while he told them all
how it happened. Everybody was
in the best of humor, and the line
of march was taken to DR.. Graves
residence. There a serenade was
given the Doctor and afterward
other prominent friends of the
proposition were serenaded. They
wanted to serenade the LIG HIT, but
the office was closed at night and
they Contented themselves with
shouting it's praises until all were
hoarSe.
About | o'clock this morning
the crowd dispersed and all went
home in time to avoid the rain.

by the Company.

A Success for the First Night Scored
by the Company.
Grand opera house was filled
with large audience last night to
witness the production of the mus
ical and catchy opera, "Little Ty-
coon, by amateurs, under the man.
agement Of Mr.. T. H. Coulter.
The production was for the bene-
fit of the Uniform Division,
knights of Pythias of this city, to
assist them to defray the expense
of the trip to the National Encamp-
ment at Washington. The pro-
ceeds of last nights production
will very materially assist them
in this undertaking.
The company was well rehearsed
and all the members of the cast
we're in fine voice and acquitted
themselves creditably. The fol-
lowing is the cast:
General KnickerboCker Fred Stone
Rufus Ready William Deusing
Alvin Berry ..........Joe Newton
Lord Dolphin ...-.... Mr.. Coulter
Teddy, valet to Lord Dolphin
...... ........ Prof. Cum berland
First Officer ......... Harry Stone
Second Officer 49,. Roy Seastrunk
Violet, General Knickerbocker's
Daughter .......... Miss Lipps
Miss Hurrican Miss Cunningham
Dolly Dimple ......... Miss Henry
Marchionesse of Pulling Back
........... ...... Miss Steinbach
Supported by Chorus.
The San Antonio Mandolin,
Either and Guitar Sextette compos-
ed of Prof. Charles Bauderer, Mr..
Louis J. Schuetze, Mr.. Jacob Wael-
der, Mr.. Fred Daggett, Dewitt B.
Steele and Paul Machts, rendered
some fine selections of music.
Especial mention should be made
of Miss Lila Cunningham as "Miss
Hurrican. She has a rich, power
full soprano which was heard to
good advantage. Mr.. Cumberland,
in his work as "Teddy," was also
fine and gave really professional
comedy part. Mr.. Deusing as
Rufus Ready" sung his part with
great effect. His fine baritone was
much praised, while the robust
tenor Of Joe Newton was pleasant
surprise, even to his friends, who
say he surpassed himself. The
chorus was well trained and power
full.

Mayor Paschal had been tele-

what was happening and was
asked to come down and make a
speech. While waiting for him
Judge Kellar spoke to the throng,
now numbering several thousands
Of people. He made a very fine
speech. The Mayor, as soon as the
crowd heard his voice, was
greeted with prolonged APP
plause. He was so worked down
that he could not talk much above
a whisper at first, but gradually
recovered his voice until it rung
throughout the plaza. He made
splendid speech. The crowd did
not disperse after the mayor took
for his home, but call
ed for Daugherty, and the little
alderman was listened to for
fifteen minutes with profound

matter in the whole State of Texas
in the entire south. The LIGHT,
the only paper in the city which
made the fight in the interest of
sewers and which stuck to its col
ors to the last, is happy to congrat-
ulate the people of San Antonio
on their progressive stand
taken yesterday and hopes
to enjoy with them a re-
newed prosperity, a revived bust
ness, and to see lots of work pro-
vided for all the workingmen of
our city, irrespective of their al
legiance to unions, trades, assemb-
lies, etc.
The vote yesterday was a Water
loo for the soreheaded politicians
who had their selfish interest
more at heart than their good citi-
zenship. 1t was a great big adver-
tisement to the outside world for
this city. 1t was a blessing to all.
The vote, when counted last
night, after the polls were closed,
showed a majority in every ward
except No. 7, for the proposition
and in No. 7 the vote was a tie.
The total vote cast was 1929, a
larger vote than has ever been

CleVeland's Luck,

From the Brooklyn Eagle (DemO.
Mr.. Cleveland is often described
as fortunate man. What his good
fortune consists in is always en-
tirely plain. 1t is perfectly clear
now. The good luck, if so it be
called, does not imply an absence
of error always. Itinvolves an up
rightness of intent, a soundness of
aim, which secures the support of
the people whose confidence is
most valuable, in a manner and at
a time when this backing is pretty
sure to be conclusive.

The election is over and San An.

We can now afford to forgive
everybody, forget all hard feelings,
hard words said and mean things
done, and shake hands with the
anti-sewerites and even condole
with them on their defeat, if we
felt like it. We don't. We are not
a bit sorry, but on the contrary,

San Antonio today, or for that

polled at any special election in
San Antonio. OF this number the
sewer proposition received a vote of
1914, against an opposing vote of
1918, giving the handsome MAORI
ty of 499. The 500th could have been
had in any ward if the polls had
been kept open two minutes after
6 O'clock.
When the returns came in to the
city hall last evening the crowd
began to feel so happy that it cele-
brated. 1t was proposed to wait
until tonight and have a funeral
procession Of the anti-sewerites
and bury the opposition papers in
puddle Of mud. Somebody,
however, brought down Fro
bOese & Santleben's four horse
omnibus and a string band
and the bus was soon filled
and started on its way down
Commerce street, ostensibly to
call on Mayor Paschal. Mr.. H. B.
Salliway acted as chief marshal on
horseback and soon there were
hackload after hackload of promi-
nent citizens joining in the line of
parade, until the procession had
grown to several blocks in length.
AT Reuters saloon a brass band,
headed by Mr.. l.. Mahncke,
Capt. Karber and others, joined
in the procession, and another

A Verbal 1naccuraey In RevA II. e.
Dunlap's Lecture.
In the report of Rev. r. f. Dunlap's
lecture on the A. Z. A. published in
Wednesday mornings Posr-ISrELLt-
GKScEs the word church" was inadvert-
entity used for ''house of inquisition" in
the following paragraph:
"He told the story of how the French
soldiers had blown up . Catholic church
in that country and killed its priests,
and exclaimed: Every American who
loves his country must wish that every
similar institution, wherever IL may be-
shall meet the same fate. >"
Mr.. Dunlap feels that the substitution
of the word church" for thouse Of in.
QUESTION" places him in q wrong light.
To a Posr-lsrELLIGEScER reporter yester-
day he said:
'.if this paragraph were true / should
feel IL my duty to apologize to the COM
munity for the utterance Of such q senti-
ment. The whole tenor of the lecture was
against persecution OF any people on ac-
count of their religion, and the statements
misinterpreied by the reporter were made
concerning the destruction of an inQuisi-
ton building in Madrid in 1909 by order
OF Napoleon. In this building were found
nearly 100 prisoners in solitary coufinc.
msnt in underground cells without a
thread of clothing. in all stages Of starva-
ton, from IL to 10 years of age, men and
women. and chained to the floors Of their
dungeons. The remains of Others were
found chained in their cells Instruments
of torture we're found In the execution
room, four of which described. The lib
Grafton Of these prisoners and the execu-
ton OF the priests by the soldiers, the re-
moval of the valuabies from the building
and its destruction by gunpowdcr were re-
lated, aud concerning this incident used
the language attributed to me, and not
concerning q church."
