Success can only be assured by going back

After the Ball.

The program of the session of
"Phunny Phellows" of the San
Antonio German Mennerchor,
Saturday evening last, was of a
unique kind and was originated by
that prince of genius, Mr.. F. G..
Bass, of the Lone Star brewery,
who filled the role of "chief jester"
and chairman of the session. Mr..
Henry Wagner, as the "lady giant
high rope walker" Miss "Pepita
Sauernickel," would do credit to
any circus. Herr Carl Beck's trans
formation to red gowned Miss Su-
sauna Pumpernickel, only female
directress of the only grotesque
orchestra, had herself announced
as being still in the market and
willing to be woed by love sick
SWANS or irate bachelors. Mr..
VIM. Doehnert was strictly in it,
his "falsetto" wailings and lamen-
tations of the "old maid," Miss
"Amalia Knickerbein," nee "Wall-
flower" who, like the maiden all
forlOrn in the house that Jack
built" thought that it would be a
terrible fate to have to die an old
maid. Her grief seemed real and
only those familiar could detect
the crocodile tears. The finale was
a combination of burlesque and
satire, "The Council Meeting of
Sewerdom," the members were
J. c. Diehlmann, F. Roetzler,
Bolte, Boise, Drees, Wach, Hum
inert, ]. Wagner, w. Wagner and
Ziemonteck, with Mr.. F. G. Bass
as Ellis Honor" Emotions" were
always in order, until the appear
ance of squad of Coxey's and
Sculley's armies even excluded a
motion to adjourn, and a "Frog
Polonaise" started the terpsicho-
rean revel.

THE MODERN WAY

Commends itself to the well-in-
formed, to do pleasantly and eff
fectually what was formally done
in the crudest manner and disa-
greeably as well. To cleanse the
system and break up colds, head
aches, and fevers without unpleas-
ant after effects, use the delightful
liquid laxative remedy, Syrup of
Figs. Manufactured by California
Fig Syrup Company.

KILLED BY A TROLLEY CAR .
John Renken's Life Crushed Out of Him
Last Night on Austin Street.

John Renken's Life Crushed Out Of Him
Last Night on Austin Street.
About $3.50 o'clock last night a
man was run over and killed by a
trolley car of the San Antonio line
near the corner OF Austin and
Mason streets. The man was walk.
ing along Austin street, going to-
ward Government hill, and the car
was behind him. The motorman
says that he sounded his gong and
that the track was clear when the
car passed. He believes that the
man staggered and fell under the
wheels, as the car was passing him.
The back part of the mans head
was crushed and his body, shout
ders and arms were mashed.
Death was instantaneous and Coro-
ner Griff Jones was summoned to
view the body.
The body was identified this
morning as that Of John Renken,
OF No. 1856 Grayson street. He
leaves q wife and three-yesr-old
child. They lived here about
seven years. Deceased was 35 years
of age and was out Of employment
the past five months. He former
ly worked in the City brewery.
His family is in very poor circum-
stances. The remains are held by
7. A. Mccormick & Co.. where thew
were identified by deceased's
brother-in-law.
The motorman of the car was
Otto Pam and F. A. Meyers was
the conductor. They were arrest
ed, charged with granddaughter,
and gave bond in the sum Of $500
each.
Renken had a silver watch on
him at the time of the accident,
which is missing, and Is believed
to have been stolen.

AT THE GRAND.

"Col. Ingersoll," says a writer in
a New York journal, sis now in the
very zenith of his intellectual
powers. He has reached the fifth
age of man, which he himself so
beautifully describes in his famous
prose poem, "Life." which appeared
originally in Harrison Grey Fiske's
Dramatic Mirror. Indeed it may
be said that3he is describing him
self in the last few sentences.
"Orthodox and heterodox alike
find pleasure ia the music of an
opera if it is sung in a foreign
tongue and so it is they are de-
lighted with the beauty of Inger-
soils marvellous melodies OF words.
Even his vituperation is verbally
musical and while it causes the
Christian soul to writhe in pity or
in scorn it enthralls the sense OF
expression and fascinates the list
ener into willing bondage. His
severest critics may charge him
with failure to elicit from their
preJudices any response, but all
are compelled to confess the charm
OF his matchless eloquence. 1t will
be sorry day when this great poet
OF the platform bids it farewell for
ever"
Hear him at the Grand tonight.

Revival Trinity.

The regular revival service at
Trinity M. E. church began last
night week ago, but yesterday and
last night the pastor, Rev. r. l..
Selle, preached to large congrega-
tions and the revival interest and
spirit was deep. Six or eight pro-
fessions at the altar and six ac-
cessions to church during the day
were recorded.

ga POPULAR PLAY"

One Of the few plays which
scored a genuine success and
secured the sincere appreciation of
all classes of theatre-goers through
out the country last season, was
Edwin Milton Royls fine comedy
drama, "Friends." Grateful for
the liberal patronage and enthsi-
asm which greeted the organiza-
ton then, the management early
decided to again play this city at
the Grand, two performances, and
