THE TOP IN ENGINEERING

In civil engineering the Road to

by the mans recognized ability.
It is an easy road to the young man
who is worthy of promotion and
recognition, but no road Is harder to
the young man who is lacking in the
qualities that make for success. says
Wilson S. Kinnear, builder, of the

The freak play or the performance
that is a travesty is little in evidence
today, but it does not seem so long
ago when slump in business some
times enboldened even the most con-
sentative of theatrical managers to
resort to extraordinary measures to
attract at least one casual audience
says the New York Sun.
One of the early freak performances
was intended as an event of great
artistic value. The late Henry Wolf
sohn, afterward famous as an i'm
presario, aspired to the great For
rests mantle. The great tragedian
was playing at Niblo's Garden in
''othello." and Wolfsohn. then TWEEN
ty-two, had saved a little money with
the idea of purchasing the privilege
of appearing as the Moor in New
York, once at least.
His ambition appealed to Marie
Seebach, the German actress, who
was appearing in that year QS6S) at
the Theatre Francois, on West Four
tenth street Wolfsohn paid the
manager $1,000 for the privilege, be-
sides himself selling out the capacity
of the theatre.
AllnOuSn tne audience was conn
posed chiefly of his friends and rela-
tives, the portrayal was so ludicrous
that a riot seemed imminent and was
only prevented through an appeal to
the audience from Madam Seebach
to consider her own position Wolf
sohn never trod the boards again.
The next year, in the same theatre,
opera bouffe was the rage, owing to
the tremendous hit of comedian of
the name of Gabel. who appeared as
one of the two gendarmes in
'Genevieve de Brabant" GabePs
popularity was so great that bene-
fit was rendered to him. He decided
to present "Genevieve" as a travesty,
the male principals assuming the
female roles and the women those of
the men. The house was sold out one
hour after the advance sale opened.
Spectators reaped a harvest.
The audience began to laugh before
the curtain rose, the conductor was
greeted with roars of merriment.
Even the ushers were grinning in an
ticipation of festival of fun. When
Gabel appeared deliberately gowned
as Genevieve 1t was fully two min
utes before he was allowed to sing
the beautiful serenade number. He,
too. was bursting with laughter.
The same reception greeted each of

LAST SAN JACINTO VETERAN

When Alonzo Steele died in Texas
a year or two ago, the last white man
who fought in the battle of San ia
cinto passed away. writes Frank Put
man in the Tribune.
A few days ago W. p. Zuber. who
as boy of sixteen was with the
Texas army at San Jacinto, but did
not bear arms in the fight, died at his
Texas home. He was on hospital
guard duty during the fighting. He
was the last survivor of all the white
men present on that occasion, but it
Is not wholly clear that he was the
last survivor.
1t is likely that honor belongs to an
ancient darkey, believed to have been
Sam Houston's body servant, who
still lives in or near Houston. The
old mans story is accepted by the
Oldest white residents. sons, some of
them, of men who fought at San ia
cinto, and more familiar than anyone
else with the history of that affair.
The passing of the last white survi-
vor of San Jacinto directs attention
to one of the most extraordinary
pages of all history. San .Jacinto
ranks next after the battle of Sara

cisive battles fought on this CONT

NEW NEWS OF YESTERDAY
Witticism of the Late Senator William M. Evarts

"Depew." said Senator George f..
Hoar to Senator Depew at a time
when both men were colleagues in the
United States Senate, and during one
of those dull and dreary hours when
senators are engaged in prosy discus
sions while their colleagues sit close
to one another and indulge in anec-
dotes or politics, do you know that
there has never been time in the
history of this government when our
family has not been represented by
some member of 1T in one of the two
branches of congress-
Senator Depew and Senator Hoar
were closely related by blood, Hoar
having been a grandson of Roger
Sherman, who was one of the three
who, with Jefferson, made the first
draft of the Declaration of Independ-
ence, while Depew, upon the maternal
side, was collaterally related to the
Sherman blood.

tor Hoar, land / have been here

the leader of the American bar, and
he was known to have served in two
cabinets, once as attorney general and
once as secretary of state. Besides
that, he had great reputation as an
orator.
Nov, 1 knew what few of the sena-
tors, perhaps none excepting myself,
did know regarding one feature of
Evarts's capacity as an orator. He
was the only man, in my opinion, GER
tainly the only one whom | ever
heard excepting Rufus Choate who
was customarily very diffuse, indulg-
ing in very long sentences which
ended dramatically or with full stops,
and who at the same time had a
wonderful gift for compact utter
ances conveying in single sentence
the underlying thought of his entire
speech. Choate had both of these
gifts, but l never knew any other
man of whom it could be said that
he was both a diffuse speaker, MAX
ing use of long sentences, and at the
same time was a master of the art
Of compression or brief, epigramatic
sentences.
"Evarts. however, preferred the long
and involved sentence. ] remember
once saying to him that / thought

of the Senate adopted which would
make it possible for the Senate to ad-

could tell when his sentence was to

the Senate ought to have the privi-
lege of adjourning at any time In the

pression-I knew that a witticism was
