MEMORIES.

DO you ever dream Of hours
That are buried with the past?
", Y ever scan the faces
That in memory are castp
d., you ever hear the vices
that thrilled You long ago.
Like The music thai goes pulsing
Through your senses to and fro?
DO you ever see the twinkle
fan eye that beamed ON you
With tile love-light ever cleaning
In its depths Of brown or blue?
Do you ever hear the ripple
vi laughter that is hushed-
Or feel again the bitter tears
From burning eyes that gushedH
II 81, then thou hast realized
That memory alone
Can ever bring to thee again
The hours tina have flown,
Orever re-awaken
The griefs and joys known.

THINGS DRAMATIC,


 ."The New White Squadron" will be seen at O'Brien's opera house tonight.
 The recent congress of navies in Rio Janeiro to protest against the brigandage tolerated in Brazil forms the basis of the plot, which unfolds a romantic love inter- est. Many and varied points of interest are in the play and the stage is continu- ously filled with exciting episodes or magnificent stage pictures. Life in South America Is depleted in vivid colors, while realistic scenery and mechanical contriv- ances are abundant Among the forcible representations are those depicting slave life, In which a Moorish slave is shown yoked to an OK, like beast of burden. A ruined monastery and funeral of monk are also shown, while the climax of in terest is reached in scene representing the congress of navies in the public square of Rio. A strong element of nat ural interest overspreads the entire play and the American flag Is so glorified as to arouse to the highest pitch the enthusi- asm of every American who sees 1t. "The White Squadron" has the best company 1t has ever had.

A PROMINENT VISITOR.

Maj. T. M. Openheimer,a representative citizen of Texas, was in the city yester- day.
 Major Openheimer Is major general commanding Texas Guards, and as his business carries him over large DOT tion of his state he Is doubtless one of the best posted men on current matters that has visited the east from the Lone Star State in several months.
 Speaking of the crop prospects Major Openheimer says Texas has made enough of corn and forage to do her three years. That unusual attention has been given also to raising cattle and hogs. corn iG now offered in many sections al rom 20 to % cents per bushel and no purchas- CTS. The cotton crop is about half the usual yield
 Taking everything into considera- tion." said Major Openheimer, "Texas IS all right. We arc troubled some with IT. nancial fever, but I think that will soon blow over"
 By the way" put in the scribe, how does Texas stand on the question of free coinage?"
 Well we sound money fellows would not be known in the fight if an electlon was held on that issue today. Free coin age is preached from the prairies to the cross timbers, and public opinion Is large ly one way. I think now that prosperity is sweeping over the country like tidal wave this financial question will regulate itself and that which at one time prom jsed to create a strong factional difference among the members of the same polltlcai party will be a thing of the past.
 Major Openheimer is a warm persohal friend of Capt. Joseph F. Johnston, ana one feature of his trip to Birmingham was to call on his friend before the state.

BUSY AT WORK.
A Grade Meeting of the City Teachers Was Held Yesterday Afternoon at the
 High School. =

An interesting meeting of the teach CTS of the third and fourth grades of the public schools was held Tuesday after noon in the high school building. The first topic presented was that of draw ing by Miss Cahalan. She outlined the work to be taught in the third and fourth grades and Illustrated the methods Of. presenting the exercises with blackboard; work. Two specific exercises week from the drawing book constitute the basis of the work to be done by the pupil She emphasized the fact that drawing, in or der to become an educative process, must be organized with all the work of the schools, and correlated with arithmetic, grammar, geogoraphy, history and other subjects s-l7s
 Dr. Phillips took the subject of lam guage lessons and gave an outline or the aims and methods of this branch of in-l struction from the first through the fourth grades. He said that In the first two years the method of language work must be essentially synthetic, with cor rect oral expressions on the part Of the child as the dominating purpose. All the material used-the content of the reading. lessons, the stories, the fairy tales, etc., while they must furnish the child's mind with rich body of truth and ideas that can assimilate, must also serve reproduce tions to ena ble the child familiar with the correct forms of language and skllful in their use. In the third and fourth grades synthesis and oral expression are continued and the simple sense analysis of the sentence begun. This analysis, he explained, must begin with the simplest thought relations, expressed in terms in telliglble to the child, but diScarding the technical terms of the science of gram mar which at this stage are meaningless to the child. In beginning the study of elementary grammar it is not the thought relations that puzzle the child, but the use and application of technical terms which he does not clearly compre- bend. He illustrated the method of sense analysis and urged the importance of the subject as a prepara tion for grammar.
 Principal Cunningham of the Paul Hayne school outlined the special work and methods to be pursued by the third and fourth grade teachers in physiology and hygiene. The subject of hygiene in it's different applications to the welfare of children was emphasized and illustra- ted. Outlines of the topic for the two grades were given to the teachers as guiding lines for oval work
 The next grade meeting will be held on Tuesday afternoon of next week. when the specific work of the fifth, sixth and seventh grades will be discussed.
 The regular meeting of city teachers institute will be held at the high school building next Saturday morning. Teach CTS and those interested in educational work are warmly welcomed to attend these meetings.

To the State Herald:
 Was there not an ordinance passed oy the city council prohibiting bicycles being used at night without a light and bell? Why cannot this law be enforced as in all other cities? About two weeks ago at the corner of Eighteenth street and Third avenue at o'clock in the evening a wheel ran into a man with little baby In his arms. It was only the strength of the arm supporting the little one that kept it from being dashed to the earth and perhaps killed. The man on the wheel did not even apologize, but mount ed his wheel and rode off as sereneiy as if nothing had happened. Do you think this speaks we'll of our city law when such an occurrence is happening on our streets Gin the business portion) almost every day? ask you to kindly allow me space in your paper and that every man who rides a bicycle after dark see that it has light and bell CITIZEN.

COUNTERFEIT S1O NOTE.

, A counterfeit BIO note was passed on Assistant Treasurer West at the opera house last night. The bill is silver cer- tificate of the 1891 series. It is com plete counterfeit and an expert would hardly have detected it without careful examination. MT. West has no idea who gave him the bill.
 Only few days ago $2000 in bills of similar denomination as the above were passed on a national bank in Texas, re- sulting in the arrest of several prominent business men, who had themselves been imposed upon.
 It is reported that other counterfeit currency is being circulated in this city and money handlers and officials will keep a close watchout in order to locate the source if possible

 "When you've got good thing hold on to it." That's what everybody says. and it's good logic, too. It applies wonder fully we'll to Simmons Liver Regulator. It's a good medicine, and there is none better for the same purpose. For nigh three-quarters of a century the people have held on to 1t. notwithstanding the frauds upon it's good name and sale It's just as good as ever and better when compared with the vile stuff of fered you instead. Be sure to take noth- ing else instead of it. It's the Red 2 you want, and must have. Tell your druggist so. The people are waking up to the fact that they are being cheated when they take the various preparations sold them on the promise that they are just as good as Simmons Liver Regula- tor. and they are all coming back again to The Old Friend.

William Morris in "Lost Paradise"

The popular actor, MT. William Morris,
 will make his first appearance as a star
 at OBrien's opera house Monday night,
 November II, in "The Lost Paradise"
 MT. Morris has, perhaps, been prominent
 ly allied with more successful metropoli-
 tan productions of the modern during
 the past five years than any leading man
 In America. His achievements during
 his connection with MT. Frohman are
 still fresh in the minds of theater-goers, prominent among which was the success
 as William Prescott, in "Men and
 Women" Lieutenant Hawksworth, in
 s'The Girl I Left Behind Me-" and as
 Reuben Warner In "The Lost Paradise"
 The unqualified success, the hearty ap-
 probation accorded MT. Morris on all
 sides for his manly, vigorous and able
 interpretation of De Miles fascinating
 hero has induced him to inaugurate his first starring tour in this character MT.
 Morris has played his part over 800 times, achieving unbounded success "The Lost Paradise" is a remarkably strong play.
 The author has handled the labor ques- ton, merely showing the glaring mis- takes which are often made on both sides. It is play that teaches a significant lesson for the labor issues of the day woven throughout with an intense story of the most passionate love. A vein of
 charming pathos ripples gently over
 every other line, intermtngling with a
 Delicious strain of sparkling comedy.
 [ That 4srhe Lost Paradise" has been a most popular success has not alone been Hueete the masterful manner in which the author has handled his theme and the delightful comedy scenes in which the play abounds, but also to the in- dividuality and the inimitable acting with which the we'll known company of players who have been seen in this play have endowed the various parts. This has been kept in mind by the manage ment of Mir. Morris who has surrounded
 him with a company of exceptional abili- ty, including Miss Etta Hawkins, who Is we'll known in this city as the original In the character of Cinders
