BUYING AND SELLING

We have already discussed the free-trade
theory that If we do not Luy we cannot sell.
We have shown by our own import and export
statistics that, since the German tariff went
into effect with its first approach to free trade,
we have been buying very literally from for
elgn countries, but on the other hand, we
have been selling less than usual in the
markets OF the world. AS the results of
our actual experience have proven differ
ent to free-trade theories and promises,
we thought 1t best to examine the results of
England's buying and selling There we have
an absolute free-trade country, while here the
1ree-traders might claim that their theories
have not assumed practical shape because the
German tariff is partially protective. Without
going into all the details of British foreign
trade, we take their exports of wooden goods
and their imports of some food products, these
being possibly their two most important lines
OF trade. Here are the figures for the eight
months ending August 81 of the present
year:

Testifying
For MunyOn.

SAN ANTONIO, Nov. 20.-Munyon
Home Remedy Company-Gentle-
men: l am now well along in
years and have been all my life af-
flicted with muscular rheumatism
generally located in the chest, sta
tionary for two or three days, then
changing from one side to the
other. The attacks came and went
suddenly, with remission Of one
or two days, then return. / have
never been Frustrated, but always
during the continuance of the pain
incapacitated for days. When l
did not have pains 1 was always
anticipating their return. / tried
everything my attention was
called to, but without permanent
relief. Only three days ago l was
presented with a trial bottle Of
Munyon's Rheumatism Cure at the
office of the San Antonio Daily Ex-
press, and while l had little faith
in it, still L took, as directed, one
half Of trial bottle, and / feel In
this short time much, very much
improved, and might further say
cured, and my confidence in these
preparations is such that L have in
duced my wife to give them trial
for liver troubles. L purchased two
small bottles at the drug store,
"Liver Cure and Dyspepsia Cure"
and she has now taken them al
ternately for two days, with the
greatest benefits, relieving very
bad cough, improving digestion
and giving refreshing sleep. She
is loud in ordinations Of praise
of your medicine, and believes
firmly that in a very short time,
through their use, she will be re-
stored to her normal good health.
Very Respectfully,

Grand Opera House.

In Edwin Barbour's new play,
"Land Of the Midnight Sum-" we
find something so original, weird
and barbaric, that it is hard to find
in the category of stage perform
ances fairly descriptive name to
qualify it. Probably it will be
nearly right to call it spectacular
romance. The style might be Of
the Rider Haggard or Jules Verne
school, except that those fascinat-
ing writers have run more to fable
than to realism. "The Land of the
Midnight Sun" is not stretch of
Imagination but legend Of our
own world to the present day,
bound in a cover of barbaric splen-
dor. The story is of two half
brothers who, like Valentine and
Orson are unknown to each other,
the one is an. Icelandic giant Of the
northern seas, the other born in
the tropics, has all the fire of the
Latin race. From the cradle Jason,
the elder, is taught to hate his
father and half brother, because
that father deserted his moth
er while he was but an in
FAINT. The Vicking ships cross
the seas, and the brothers
love the same woman. Time and
time again they cross each other in
love and war. The action of the
play takes place in which we OF the
temperate zone know nothing, ex-
cept what we read. Scenes of the
Aurora Rorealis, volcanic erup-
ton, an explosion in the sulphur
mines are presented with wonder
full realism, also the meeting of the
Althing, the historical Mount OF
Laws, an impressive ceremony
which for thousand years has
been the customary form of justice
and annual thanksgiving OF that
country are features that are new
to the stage and pleasing to the
audience. The production is I'M
der the especial direction of A. Y.
Pearson, who is lavish in his ex-
penditure in making the "Land OF
the Midnight Sun" the success it
is.

day, and Monday matinee.

Fred. Warde.

Frederick Warde, the well known
tragedian and romantic actor and
popular Knight of Pythias, de-
lighted a fine audience last night
in the opera house with a careful
and strong presentation Of Shakes
peare's julius Caesar. He carries
large company of carefully Sc.
lected players, and won additional
laurels from his many San Antonio
friends. In the role of "Brutus"
Mr.. Warde was seen in a very cor.
rect, careful reading Of this grand
heroic study and proved himself
not yet incapable of the highest at.
.ssaihm6nts in Shakespeare's diff
cult requirements.
In Mr.. Charles Sutton Mr.. Warde
carries star OF great bril-
liancy, as shown by his splen-

when he delivered the beautiful
and thrilling Grafton over Caesars
corpse. This grafton has been 80
often vilely produced at college

such mastery style last night
the audience was carried by storm
and accorded the young actor the
compliment of a curtain call.

TWO FIRES.

A Trash Pile and Dwelling Burned.
Yesterday afternoon at O'Clock
the fire bells announced an alarm
from the corner of South Flores
and Lachapelle streets and the
mounted police and firemen, after
quick run, found that trash pile
afire was the only cause for their
trouble.
About IL o'clock last night the
residence of Mrs. Spruce, on Porter
street, South Heights addition, was
destroyed by fire, supposed to have
caught from a defective fiue in a
rear room.
The building, one-story frame,
was owned by Mr.. A. Silcock. Mrs.
Spruce, with the assistance OF her
neighbors, succeeded in saving
most of her household effects. She
occupied the place with her sister
and her children. Mr.. Spruce is in
Waco.
Policeman Hill first gave the
alarm, by telephone, to engine
company No. 2, and this company's
hook and ladder truck, the chemi-
cal engine and Mission hose COM
pany, started to the fire. Owing to
the long three-mile run the horses
almost gave out from exhaustion,
and the firemen could do nothing
but help in removing the furniture.
The loss on building and insur-
ance could not be learned. The la
dies and children have found shell
l ter at Mr.. Kingsley's residence.

The Armenians

The Armenians are a civilized people, a
people of great natural gifts. and a people
who have played u considerable part in
history. Since their ancient mona chy,
which had suffered severely in the long
and desolating wars hetween the Roman
and Persian empires from the third to the
seventh century of our era, was finally de-
stroyed by the Seljukian Turks. a large
part of the race has been forced to migrate
from it's ancient seats at the headwaters of
the Euphrates, Tigris and Aras.
Some of them went southwest TO the
mountain Businesses of Cilica, where
another Armenian kingdom grew up in the
twelfth century. Others drifted into Per-
sia. Others moved northeastward and now

where many have entered the military or
