SEA WALL AT GALVESTON
Three and a Half Million Do'ars
 Will Be Spent in its Construction.

San Francisco Argonaut.
 The report of the Board of Engineers on plans for the wall to protect Gal weston calls for three miles of concrete breakwater, seventeen feet above mean low tide. The estimated cost of the sea wall is $1,294,75 and that of filling in the entire city so as to bring its grade up to the proper level is S2,2iO, 2S5 addi- uonal making total of s, 0i0. After the hurricane that almost wiped ont tho city it was evident that steps should be taken to protect Galveston from another like calamity. A sea wall was the means decided upon, the plan which calls for the m st pretentious piece of engineering of tho sort ever attempted In the United States.
 The money needed for the enterprise will be raised under a constitutional pro- vision granting coast counties the privi- lege to iss le bonds for protection against the encroacEments pf the gulf, provided the proposition is ratified by two-thirds vote of the taxpayers of the county. The prC position was submitted to the taxpay- CTS of Galveston County to issue sl ,5O0- 000 sea-wall bonds and was carried, only tweIty-six votes being cast against 1t. The people of Galveston bought the bonds with the exception of a very small amount Still the nolay for the filling in was yet to be provided for. The eighth

MONTGOMERY THEATRE.
"Are You a MasonP" Delighted an
 Audience Last Night.

Are You Ma5on?' screamlnSiy funny farce, built on an entirely original basis, delighted a small audience at the Montgomery Theatre last night.
 The play exudes fun and laughter. Mirth fairly drips from it. A wake of ripping laughter follows the action Of the play from its beginning to its ending. A novel and original conception gave birth to the idea about which the really notable farce is built.
 Frank Perry of New York, plausibly explains an absence from home to his wife by saying hat he was detained down town all night by his initiation into a Masonic lodge. In far-off Illinois his father-in-law, who enjoys quiet game of poker, has for the past twenty years allayed his wife's curiosity about his occasional absences from home by telling her that his duties as Masonic lodge officer demanded his time. The fast and furious fun begins when the father in-law, with his wife and two unmarried daughters, reach New York on visit to Percy and his wife. The despair and the antics of the two bogus Masonh when they are brought face to face, each be- lieving the other Is the real thing, Is about as Imaginable a situation as any farce ever embodied.
 Two suitors for the unmarried daugh- ters, one a real Mason and the other d New Yorker and a friend of Percy s, with a great head for schemes inject more diversity and action into the laugh ter provoking comedy.
 It is not conceivable that any company could be mediocre enough to give a dull and spiritless performance of Are You Mason?" The producing company last night was certainly not of such a class. T ties for inspiring a laugh the audience did not notice 1t, Ir fact 1t would have been nothing short of a cruelty to have had the risibles of the audience further provoked.
 The chief fun maker was rotund Thom- as A. Wise. who portrayed the genial and laughable fraud from Illinois. He was funny In a refined. artistic sort of way, He did not descend to horse play for effect. It was not necessary.
 A very clever performance was given by John c. Rice as Frank Perry, the urbane fraud of New York. There was something graceful and effective in his management of a number of .udicrous situations.
 The surprise of the performance was, however, the artistic portrayal of George Fisher by Edward Abeleo. He made the role feature of the performance. The role requires him to impersonate a wo- man and he did 1t most clearly. It was quite the funniest thing seen on the local stage this season
 The feminine portion of the audience was very good but the stars were all masculine.
 With the exception of MT. Abeles the company is practically the same which produced Are You a Mason?" here last year and Mir Abeles is, If anything, an improvement.
