McOarthy's Mishaps.

McCarthy's Mishaps comes to
the Grand Opera house next We'd
nesday night only. This excellent
farce comedy first jumped into
prominence seven years ago, and
was phenomenally successful from
the date OF its first performance.
This season the piece has been en-
tirely written up to date, making
it better and more ludicrous
than ever. McCarthy's Mishaps
is fanciful tumble, from the pen
of Grattan Donnelly. This season
is said to be studded with fresh
and sparkling features, picturesque
dances, magnificent choruses, and
admirable vocal numbers. The
specialties are so perfectly blended
with the action OF the play that
they do not mar the unfolding
of the story, or spoil the dialogue.
The plot Of "McCarthy's Mishaps"
offers capital opportunities for
comic treatment. The piece is a
composite comedy, built with but
one design, and that is to make
the auditors laugh heartily, and to
judge from the reports OF
its attempt in that direction
it must indeed be a
mirth provoker par excellence.
Miss st. Jeorge Hussey shines as
the bright particular light in this
piece. Her every appearance is
greeted with hilarious applause.
Her humor is spontaneous. There
is no straining for effect, but it
comes out natural and strong, and
carries the audience with 1t in
bursts of fun and merriment. Miss
st. George Hussey, who is starring
in the piece, is billed as Americas
representative character Irish com.
Medicine. Her original concep-
ton of the role of Mrs. Null
ligan is one Of the big
hits Of the performance. Miss
Hussey is an artist Of conceded
ability, and her work always shows
a deep study, and keen apprecia-
ton Of the character she portrays.
The critics throughout the country
are a unit in praising her work. In
the support is Emma Italia,
bright, clever girl who dances ex-
quisitely and who is exceedingly
piquant, with sweet singing voice.
Miss Italia shows a versatility
which captivates her audience.
Blanche Creago, Virginia and John
son, are also members Of the
organization. The girls are
not alone pretty, but possess
good voices and add dash and
chic to the farce which is high
ly pleasing. The male contingent
includes Hafford and Mantell, de-
scriptive and character singers.
Frank G. Mack, Chas. German,
and others, are in the cast and con-
tribute largely to the success Of it's
presentation.
The McCarthy's Mishap COM
psny plays Wednesday night for
the benefit OF the opera house en-
ployes and it is hoped that their
friends and theatre goers Of San
Antonio will support them liber-

MIR. Charles w. DudrOw and Miss
Madge Taylor United in Marriage
This Wedding Trip
to Denver.

At 1890 this morning, by the Rev. R.
M. Craig, at the residence of the BRIDES
mother, in the city of Santa Fe, Miss
Madge Taylor was married to Mr.. Charles
W. Dudrow, both of this city.
The ceremony that united the lives of
these excellent people was witnessed by a
score of intimate personal friends, whose
cordial congratulations were evidently
sincere and heartfelt. The presents were
numerous, costly and handsome, and the
floral decorations were elaborate and
beautiful. The house was literally filled
with the fragrance of rare flowers.
The ceremony was followed with de-
licious wedding breakfast, after which Mr..
and Mrs. Dudrow we're driven to the Den
yer e. Rio Grande station, whence they
took the morning train for wedding
trip to Denver and other Colorado points
carrying with them the good wishes of q
host of Santa Fe friends.
Both of the parties to this interesting
event are old residents of this city anc
deservedly rank high in the estimation Of
all. The New MEXICAN heartily joins
their other friends in hoping that larg'
measure of health and happiness may at
tend their married life.

POINTERS ON POLITICS.

Those Republicans in Santa Fe who
have been betting on Mckinley are pretty
badly scared. They admit that Bryan
has made "a remarkable showing" during
the past two weeks and some of them
have gone 80 far as to pull down their
bets.
Hon. H. B. Ferguson left Santa Fe
last night for San Miguel county. He
yesterday made 1t his business to call on
large number of representative citizens
of Santa Fe and on every hand he was
accorded the heartiest welcome and
promised the most loyal support. Santa
lie county is to-day safe for Ferguson
by several hundred majority.

A POLITICAL INCIDENT.
One of Senator Moneys Constituents
Runs Carlisle to COver-M. A.
Downing in the Swim at
Washington.

Mortimer A. Downing, formerly editor
of the Santa Fe Republican and late pri-
vate secretary of Delegate Catron, is quite
in the swim at Washington.
When Senator Money was visitor in
Santa Fe he received letter from con-
stituent of his, a Mississippi negro named
L. G. Moore, announcing that he had re-
signed his place as messenger in the us.
treasury department-to which Senator
Money had secured his appointment
because, as he explained, he considered
that conscientious Democrat could not
consistently serve under men who had
bolte1 the true Democratic platform and
the regular party nominees.
The idea that one of his colored con-
stituents should prove SO thoroughly
loyal, while no surprise to him, gave Sen
ator Money intense pleasure, and he i'm
| mediately wrote Mr.. Moore commencing
the stand he had taken.
Last Friday night Moore, who is known
as poet of no mean ability, student
and an orator, was the principal speaker
at meeting of the Lakeland Silver club
in Washington City. He made brilliant
address and ably supported the cause OF
Democracy, Bryan and free coinage. Dur.
ing his talk he intimated that he would
like to debate the issues of the campaign
with his former chief, Logan Carlisle, sor
of the secretary of the treasury. Accord
ingly, a formal challenge was sent Mr.
Carlisle, and as result the following ap
pears in the Washington dispatches o
Sunday:
"Mr. Logan Carlisle has given out tn
following explanatory note for publica
ton: Il have received letter signed b.

FLORENCE STRUCK D0NATONI0.

Nicholas Donatonio, of No. 800 Fourth

bage dumps at the head of Seventh
street on Saturday, is still unconscious.

fined, it is said he canno recover The

His assailant has been captured. He.

identified him as his assailant.
Shortly after the prisoner was taken
away the old man lapsed into uncon-
sciousness and he has remained in that
condition ever since.
Florence admits that he struck bona

Florence was dumping garbage when a
half dozen or more Italians crowded
around his truck, all eager to rake over
the stuff he was to leave on the dumps.
The Italians got in his way and when
he demonstrated with them they cursed
and swore at him. He ordered Donatonio
away and the next instant, ne says, the
old man struck him with a steel poker.
A fight ensued in which he declares all
the Italians took part. To defend him
self he struck out right and left with

he struck and did not believe he had

THE LONDON zoo.
ff Costs Comparatively Little to
Fees the Animals.

The London Zoo is, perhaps. the most
popular scientific institution in Europe.
and its expense are heavy. A recent re-
port says that the death rate of its deni-
zens is high, about 379 per Loco, and about
loo animals are added every year, OF
which one-sixth are purchased. The pro-
vision bill comes to over "a 1000 a year.
which means that 1t costs only a little
more than a penny a day per capita to
fed $500 animals.
The fesh-eating animals are not sup
piled with prime joints of beef at this
rate. Their fare is horse1esh and goat
flesh. Hay, clover, bran, oats, maize,
ers form a large item, and IA bushels
of canary, hemp and millet seed are de-
manded by the birds. The fish eaters con-
sumo seventeen tons of fish annually.
There are some odd items in the commits
sariat. One can understand the fifteen
tons of biscuits, the four tons of rice,
and the three tons of potatoes, but the
3.4Oo punches of watereress, the 1900
quarts of shrimp, the $500 fowls heads
are among the unexpected. Carrots and
greens are popular. The latter include 500
dozen off cabbages. And there are epicures
who demanded 24.009 eggs. The nuts dis
pensed by visitors are far from supplying
the needs of the animals, 429 cwt. Of mon
key nuts figure in the annual consump-
ton. Dates, grapes and raisins nave a
place in the menu. Oranges are eaten to
the tune OF 1900, to a nothing of 1900
bananas. The children's buns are cloyfng,
but they are supplemented officially by
$500 quarter ioaves and 200 quarts Of
milk. There lis also the hideous item of
the living food of the snakes, who are
not held by ancient wisdom to be SYM
bols of evil for nothing.

BEAT HER WITH A HAMMER.
Brutal Attack Resented by
His wife with a Hatcher.

Mrs. Michael Moran, of No % Ash
street, is confined in the City Hospital
undergoing treatmen for a broken nose.
Yesterday she was attacked by her nus
band, who had armed himself with a
hammer. She defended herself pluckily
with a Ratchet, and while her angry hus-
band was welding the BANNER she was
chopping away with the Ratchet. While
her nose was broken, her husbands face
was dangerously cut. His wound was
dressed and he was taken in custody and
locked up at Police Headquarters.
Moran left his home about min o'clock
yesterday morning, promising to return
in time for dinner, which his wife said
would be ready by one o'clock. Moran
while strolling about the city met a num-
Der of friends. He returned to his home
promptly at one O'Clock. but he was not
in an amiable mood. He was ahgered TO
a greater extent when ne found that his
dinner was not ready and would probably
not be ready for another hour at least.
He quarreIed with his wife. and per-
sonalities were INDUCED in to such an ex-
tent that the couple came to blows. Mrs.
Moran was holding her own pretty wen
when her husband seized a hammer which
lay on a table near by. He struck her a
half dozen vicious blows. TIL woman
screamed for helf and ran about the
house in a fruitless attempt to escape her
irate husband. He continued to rain blows
upon her until driven to desperation she
picked up a Ratchet which lay in the kit
chen and defended herself. She struck her
husband on the right side of the face. in
ficting an ugly wound, from which blood
flowed freely.
The blow staggered Moran, but as soon

He struck her the blow which broke her
nose just as neighbors entered. Mrs. Mo
ran was unconscious when found. She
was removed in all haste to the City Hos
pital. Moran was turned over to the Po-
lice Headquarters men, it being at first
supposed he had injured his wife to a
greater extent than was imagined.
Justice Potts held him without bail to-
day until his wife is able to appear
against him.
