Curious History of Havana's Famous
Playhouse.
Cuban Review.

The history of the Tacon Theatre Of
Havana, which was recently purchased
by the Spanish Dramatic Company for
S55O,0O0, is very interesting. In the
year 1885 Francisco Marty, who was
then the leader of a band of pirates
which infested the Island Of Cuba, and
who had price of $4,000 on his head,
was captured and ordered put to death.
Seeing there was no hope for him, he
asked leave to see General TacOn, who
was then govemOr-general of HaYana,
and told him if his life was spared he
would denounce his entire band and as
sist him in Kidding the island Of num-
ber of pirates which infested it at that
period. Accordingly, General Tacon
gave him a two weeks parole, and in
side of a week Marty had denounced
his fellow-pirates and turned them over
to the government. For this service he
was pardoned.
In 1886 Marty asked for the concession
to build national theatre on the site OF
Parque Central. 1t was granted to him.
General Tacon went further and allowed
him the privilege of the use OF forty
conyicts who were then confined in
Morrow Castle to assist him in the work,
each convict receiving the sum of 20
cents day. In 1898 the theatre was
finished, and Marty, as proof OF graft
tude he felt toward General Tacon for
sparing his life, named it Ell Teatro
Tacon. During the insurrection ir Cuba
many exciting incidents took place here.
In one instance regiment of Cuban in
surgents barricaded themselves in the
theatre and held it against the Span
iards for three days. Finally they were
starved out, and as they were making
their escape all were shot.
The theatre is built of white stone
with decorations of marble, and faces
Central Park, being in the center OF the
fashionable district OF Havana. 1t is
one of the largest theatres in the world,
seating over &, 700 persons.

4 Tribute to the Memory of Mrs
Anna Louise PatenOtte.

Twas near the close of summer. The
dying south winds mingled their sweet
breath with the fragrance of the seasons
remaining flowers. And grandma, too,
| was dying. Thus came Death, unre-
pentant of his plan to seal destiny.
There passed away on Sunday at 5:55
o. m, Sept. is, 1906, Mrs. Anna Louise
Patenotte (nee Heslin) at her home in
Bay ST. Louis, Miss. She was in the
eighty-first year of her pilgrimage on
earth.
The deceased was one of three chill
dren and an only daughter OF the
wealthy and noted Heslins of France
She was the widow of the late c. j
Patenotte, of Pass Christian, Miss.
With her husband and three children
she arrived in America ffty-five years
ago, and soon afterward settled at the
Pass. In early widowhood she became
an inmate of her daughters home at tho
Bay, For fourteen years she was an in
valid, becoming quite infirm during the
last two years, and finally was pros
trated three weeks previous to her de-
parture for the life triumphant.
The subject of this sketch was de-
vout and faithful Christian woman, re-
ceiving the last sacred rites of the
Catholic church, the Rev. Father Husser
officiating then and also after dissolu-
ton.
The corpse, in charge of some rela-
tives and friends, left on the L. & n.
train at II a. m. for the Pass, where
other relatives and friends received same
at the depot. Thence the funeral pro-
ceeded to ST. Paul's Church, where the
Rev. Father Altof held beautiful serv-
ice, which was concluded at the burial.
Her body is sat rest" beside the grave
Of her youngest child, Mrs. Mathilde V.
Ram0nd-this is in accordance with the
mothers wish. The new-made mound
was covered with many floral tributes.
The funeral attendance was large and
represented the best class of the Pass
residents.
Mrs. Patenotte was the mother Of
fourteen children (nine sons and five
daughters), of whom eight now survive
their lamented mother; they are: Mrs.
j. Demetz, Pass Christian, Miss; Alex
ander Patenotte, Hot Springs. Ark;
Mrs. n. Lassere, Tampa, Fla; Anto-
me and Elise Patenotte, Bay st. Louis,
Miss; Mrs. W. F. Deicuze, San Anto-
Mo, Tex; F. l.. Patenotte, Pass Chris
tian, Miss; and L. ]. Patenotte, Arcola,
La. She leaves thirty grandchildren
and twenty-three great grand d-children
The writer had known the departed
loved-one for several years. She was a
well-informed, agreeable and cultured
lady, and bore her sufferings with Chris
tian fortitude. All that was possible
was done by her skilled physician, DR..
r. J. Turner, and she was most tenderly
administered to by her faithful attend
ants.
To all the bereaved relatives and
friends loving sympathy is extended.
"Blessed are they that mourn; for
they shall be comforted."

While Attempting to Board
Ereiuht Train

F'renchman about 80 years of age, was
probably fatally injured while at
tempting to board a north-bound Santa
Fe freight train at Crary, four miles

the iron rungs of a ladder that leads
to the roof of a car. He missed the
rod and fell beside the track. Before

wounded over the right eye and has a
deep cut at the back of the head and
a cash under the jaw.
He was placed on the passenger train

Levi Hopper, the brother of Isaac A.

money.
Levi Hopper stayed for time on
his uncles ranch but ultimately drift
ed to Nevada in the hope OF locating
a mine. In his last letter, received a
few days ago. Levi said he had located
silver mine and felt sure 1t was
a genuine bonanza. He asked Isaac to
go west and see ii and aid him in de-
veloping its possibilities.
