MUNICIPAL GOSSIP.

At the council meeting tomor-
row, Or. Menger city physician,will
present a communication in reply
to the memorial of the West Texas
Medical society regarding the
spread OF consumption and guard
ing against its contagion.
The city clerk in looking over
the revised ordinances in regard to
the question raised by Auditor
Meyer, that the Cityhas no right to
pay a clothing allowance to fire.
men, in that there is no ordinance
on the city statutes to regulate or
control the fire department, has
found the auditor was correct.
During Mayor Paschal's admins
tration the ordinances were all
revised and in the revision it APP
pears that the clerk in charge OF
the work omitted to insert a
specially prepared ordinance
passed by the council TO gov
eru the fire department, and
which was intended as a substi-
tute for the old ordinance in the
matter. The revision was COM
pleted, and not until few days
ago did the officials know that our
fire department has been running
along by itself, without any gov
erning laws.
There is a we'll defined rumor
about the city that the sewer con-
tractors are getting the worst end
of the stick in their contract; time
is growing short and the contract
may have to be changed slightly
to help them out.

GENERAL BLISS REPORTS.
Interesting Statement of Condition
and Needs, and Doings of the
Military In Texas.

and Needs, and Doings of the
Military In Texas.
The first annual report of Briga-
dier General u. r.. Bliss, command.
ing department of Texas, has been
published. After citing. the
fact that he assumed command
May 18Th, last, he says no special
calls for activity of troops in the
department have been made, move
ments being confined to practice
marches and changes of stations
to better the service. In his in
spection OF posts he found Fort
Mcintosh in excellent condition.
An oil house and magazine are re-
quired. Also fine at Ringgolo
the garrison may have to use we'll
water if the Rio Grande should
shift it's bed. At Fit. Brown repairs
are needed, though the hospital is
in fine condition. He cites the
importance of this post, saying
the garrison should always keep
its present strength. The enroach-
ment of the river here endangers
the military reservation and build
ings. He recommends wall be
built to confine the river to its
boundaries also that a four-com-
pany post be erected. He believes
the frontier troops should be
changed every two years.
Fort Clark he found in excellent
condition. Fort Bliss should be
increased to four companies. Fort
Hancock was all right, except rusty
water pipes need replacing with
new ones. Fort Sam Houston is in
good condition, only the sewage
question causing trouble. He hopes
this will be remedied when the
post is connected with the mum.
cipal sewage system, which plan,
he says, "is now under considera.
tion."
He mentions the need of target
ranges at all the posts.
Desertions for the year have in
creased so per cent, and more Sc
we're punishment is advised.
Then follows reports from his
staff officers, reports Of lyceum
work at Forts Brown, Bliss, Clark,

FREDERICK wARDE,


Who is announced for an engage.
ment of three performances at the
Grand Opera house next Friday
and Saturday, has not appeared in
San ntonio for nearly four years.
Nm that time he has become as
famous as a producer of plays as
he>in the past has been as an actor.
The New Orleans Times-Democrat
says of his engagement in that city
last week:
"Frederick Warde's engagement
at the st. Charles has thus far
proved one of the most successful Of
the season, and possibly it would be
difficult to find an actor-manager
who has shown himself to BIZ more
deserving OF success. Mr.. Warde
has certainly gone about the task
of securing it in manner that,
while it is strictly legitimate and
logical, pays a graceful compli-
ment to the intelligence Of his con
stituents. He is clearly an actor
of the advanced school, who recog-
nizes the necessity of keeping
abreast of the times, instead Of
croaking over the degeneracy Of the
present day. There are men of
ability on the stage who sigh for
the times when the great tragedies
of Shakespeare were produced to
delighted audiences on stage
twenty feet by fifteen, when Ham
let wore the square-cut coat OF the
player's time, and when the
reading of the lines with fitting
gestures constituted all in the way
OF art that was demanded. The in
telligent playgoer of the present
day will not be so iDjudicious as to
wish to see reproduction" run mad,
until. as Mr.. Grossmitb not long ago
suggested, the actors would become
mere 'sinterrupters" of scenic de-
velopement; but on the other hand,
the public demands artistic and
realistic effects, no matter how
clever the acting may be. There is
no reasoAwhy the eye should not
be entertained as well as the ear,
as both minister to the enjoy
ment OF the playgoer, and Rosa.
lind's reasoning upon the desira-
bility of good epilogue applies
with equal force in the matter OF
scenic effects. Mr.. Warde has, dur
ing his present engagement at the
st. Charles theatre, used his best
efforts to produce all his plays
with adequately artistic appoint
ments, and while doing this he has
not overlooked the Importance OF
having them we'll cast. The re-
suit of all this ia that he has been
welcomed by large and delighted
audiences and in no instance mas
this happy blending of good act
ing. sumptuous mountiug, and ar
tistic and realistic effects been
more marked than it was in his
production last night. Some OF
the stage pictures were so striking
ly beautiful and realistic as to
stand out in themselves meritori-
GUS works OF art.
All of Mr.. Warde's plays are
noted for their lavish scenic EN-.
bellishment and magnificent cos
tunes. For his engagement hero
he produces on Friday night, "Ju-
lius Casar:" at the. matinee Satur-
day, "The Lions Mouth" and for
his final performance Saturday
night. "The Mountebank" = one
tragedy and two romantic dramas,
all mounted and staged in the

REALIZED HIS CONDITION..

Look Out for Your Mother and Don't

An official statement given ouf by

shows the Secretary's condition has been
much more serious since SATURDAY. than
either they or others, who had admission
tothe sick room would acknowledge.
Since the pneumonia symptoms appeared
Injections of nitro glycerine and strych

afternoon and tonight normal saline in

As soon as the physicians realized the end
was approaching heroic measures as usual
il such cases were adopted Notwith-
Standing their efforts the patient sank
rapidly. The doctor said there was one
Glance in thousand that the Secretary
might rally at the last moment and ulti-
nntely recover. This result was mani
testify unexpected by him.
Mrs Gresham has scarcely left her
husbands S room since his illness began a
month ago. She has been plucky and
courageous, and has been hopeful until
| today that the Secretary life would be
spared. The Secretary, who had been
conscious. during his entire illness seems
to have been more concerned for his wife
than for himself. He realized this after
neon that the end was approaching, and
his constant suggestion made in feeble
