A Southern Romance


No prettier, more wholesome, or more
interesting play will be seen in San
Antonio this season than "A Southern
Romance" which comes to the Grand

a delightful dramatization by B. B.

idyl, In Gods Country" and so we'll
has the dramatist done his work that
he has not only preserved the fresh
ness and charm that are the life Of
the story, but he has brought, with
additional vividness and power the
wonderful dramatic possibilities of the
book, without sacrificing any Of the
naturalness, wholesomeness of heart
interest of the original narrative. The
scenic equipment of the play is very
beautiful, and the company is said to
be the best that could be gatten to-
gether in New York.

NO cLEyELANp.oLNEY RUPTURE


why the Retiring Cabinet Fsiled To Wit
81 ness 1IcKinley's Inauguration.
washington, March G-Tns failure
of President Cleveland's cabinet to at
tend the inauRuration ceremonies on
the east front Of the Capitol on Thurs
day and the absence of Secretary
Olney from the whole proceedings.
which has been construed In some
quarters as an indication Of friction
between Mr.. Cleveland and his prime
minister, as well as of lack of consid-
GRAFTON for the cabinet on the part OF
the new administration, was really due
to some slight oversights of persons
charged with the preparation of the
inaugural progam, for which neither
the old nor the new administration
can be held chargeable.
There Is no established precedent for
the attendance of the cabinet of the
retiring president at the Induction of
his successor and when 1t was noticed
by the cabinet members that no place
had been set down for them in the Of
fetal program Of the line of escort to
the Capitol they had no feeling on the
subject and was prepared to accept
the plan gracefully. However, 1t was
deemed best to call attention Of the
senate committee on arrangements to
the matter, and this was done, but by
further lapse somewhere provision
was not made for them. Before the
escorts started for the Capitol the
omission was. discovered by General
Porter and President Mckinley him
self, and the cabinet was placed in a
proper position In the line as Mr.. Nc
Kinley's personal guests. all save Sec
rotary Olney, who could not be reached
In time.
There was another hitch in the pro-
ceedings at the Capitol, which unfor-
tunately added to the impression that
the cabinet had been sighted. This
was at the time when the assemblage
In the senate chamber was about to
repair to the inaugural platform out
side. There were no seats provided for
the cabinet, by an oversight, SO upon
leaving the chamber the members, who
had already arranged to take lunch
con with Secretary Lamont, went di-
rectly to his residence on Lafayette
Square, instead of going out on the
platform,
