Evening Tribune Makes a Blunder in
the Bridge Building Business.
To Evening Tribune:
Hitchcock, Dec. 2.—By an oversight
in putting such a serious bead on a stupid
joke, which the printer happened by bad
luck to make more so by inserting “no”
before “use” and “railroad” for “main-
land” you made me appear in Saturday’s
Tribune as complaining of the Galveston
News for a trifling matter that was not
worth a moment’s notice. I did not feel
in the least degree hurt, but used the pre-
liminary nonsense as an introduction to
an effort to strike back with a little ridi-
cule at a number of persons who, with
my critic, continue to assert that I am
bought by the West End people to boom
their town. In my effort you have inad-
vertently helped me to get up a boomer-
ang that has hurt me worse than any
body else. You must see that it would
be very foolish in-me to seriously com-
plain of so isignificant a thing, and one
for which I was mainly responsible by
sending a telegram to make a cut. In
such a case people might well say that
while Stringfellow may be a very” good
hand at telling about grapes and straw-
berries and raising cabbage heads for
those who need them, if he is so silly as
to take offense at such a slip, he had bet-
ter take his critic’s advice and lay down
the pen for the hoe. I regret very much
having ever said a word on the bridge
question, for while most of us have been
often sold, it is a much more serious
thing to have people think you have been
bought. H. M. Stringfellow.

Gay and Festive Nellie McHenry Draws
Like a Mustard Plaster.
The large audience which greeted the
Nellie McHenry company last night fully
evidenced the fact that Galveston theatre
goers want fun instead of a funeral when
they go to the opera house.Hundreds were
present to see Nellie where there were not
dozens when Miss Herndon parad-
ed her “emotional roles. “Old
theater-goers will remember well
how the demand years ago was for
certain plays of a stilted character, there
being a mysterious impression prevailing
that any departure from Shakespearean
forms or the old comedy spirit was to be
considered the mark of a depraved the-
atrical taste. It is certain that all that
has changed and that the influence of the
present class of theater-goers is thrown
in the balance to have plays of these
days and not of a hundred or more years
ago.” For Sweet Charity’s Sake is light as
a feather throughout, but the merriment
and music is of a fresh and facinating
character, the members being superior
vocalists and proficient in all their parts.
Miss Nellie, of course, is the champagne
of the banquet—the cause and the crea-
tor of the delightful confusion that dis-
turbs the “rehersal”—while the com-
edians kept the audience in the best of
humor. To sum up the company briefly,
it can be said that it is composed of stars
of more or less brilliancy.
The matinee to-day wras well attended,
and the engagement will doubtless end
m triumph to-night.
A NIGHT OFF.
The above company is to be pitted
against the Gilmore concert by Manager
Walker, and that the opera-house will be
put on its nettles goes without the say-
ing. Mr. Walker is two-stories high—
not including the mansard roof and dome
—when it comes to a contest, andon this
occasion he just proposes to teach the op-
position that “there is a God in Israel.”
The New York World says of the Right
Off company : “A crowded house greeted
the production last night of that hila-
riously amusing Daly success, A Night
Off. The side-splitting complications of
the piece were rendered most effectively
and to the entire satisfaction of the audi-
ence. The company has been seen be-
fore in Brooklyn, but never to so good
an advantage. Among the members de-
serving special commendation are Messrs.
C. J. Burbridge, George Gaston and Mrs.
Eberle. A Night Off will, it is safe to
predict, be played this week to a succes-
sion of crowded houses at the pretty and
comfortable Park theater.”
“she” TO-MORRO1V NIGHT.
The Chicago Tribune says of “She,” to
he presented at the Tremont to-morrow
night: “The spectacular version of Hag-
gard’s ‘She,’ now being presented at the
Academy by the Webster-Brady com-
pany, is the work of Wm. A. Brady, and
is much preferable in every way to the
Gillette production lately given at the
Chicago opera-house. It is admirably
staged and remarkably acted. The
scenery, savage groupings, fantastic pic-
tures and weird effects all go to make it
one of the spectacular successes of the
present season.”
GILMORE—FRIDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT.
Gilmore is stirring up the whole coun-
try with his new song, “Ireland to Eng-
land,” his musical plans, his great series
of anniversary jubilees, etc., and he will
stir up Galveston when his jubilee festi-
val takes place in the Harmony hall.
His great band had a conspicuous as-
signment in the ceremonies of the Wash-
ington inaugural celebration in New
York, April 29 and 30, and then his
great jubilee organization, with band,
vocalists, artillery, etc., started out with
a special train to visit all the large cities,
and give festivals in commemoration of
the great Boston jubilee of twenty years
ago. The first was held in Pittsburg,
May 2; next at Cincinnati, May 3 and 4 ;
then in Louisville, May 6 and 7. The
Boston festival will take” place June 5, 6,
7 and 8. The whole country takes an
interest in the affair, which, as a series ®f
musical festivals, will be the largest ever
undertaken.

factured, which are breech-loading, of

will be placed in some open space near
the building, and connected by electric
wires with a key-board on the stage,
from where they will be fired by touch-
ing the elecrtic keys in exact time with
the music. The boom resounding in
time with the music will create a sublime
» effect never heard, except at Gilmore’s
jubilees, and it will create the greatest
enthusiasm. This will be an exact re-
production of the feature as used to as-
tonish the world at the Rational Peace

Mikado hall was crowded Sunday even-
ing by an intelligent audience, the major
portion doubtless being drawn thitlier by
curiosity. The exercises w’ere interest-
ing, being out of the usual channel of re-
ligious service. Mr. Kates read with
fine effect a poem, in the rythm of The
Raven, supposed to have been produced
by the spirit of the departed author of
that weird refrain speaking through
mediumistic agency. But its literary
qualities seemed to indicate that the
sphere of imagination in the spirit world
affords less - scope for the efforts of that
master intellect than it did in the mate-
rial form that ordinary mortals see and
possess.
Mr. . Kates’ address wras a model of
diction and fluency, and his whole soul
apparently being incorporated in his
’work, produced an eloquence that com-
pelled attention. He endeavored to pre-
sent the subject of spiritualism in such a
manner that every auditor could grasp
its meaning and purpose, but the dis-
course, was a little protracted.
He was succeeded by Mrs. Kates, who
posseses a good, clear voice and a force
of manner that at once generated an
interest in her words and tests. The sin-
cerity of this lady in the performance of
her work cannot be questioned, but her
tests were of such a character that a crit-
ical audience would scarcely credit their
validity. A skeptical observer who has
seen the charlotanism of so-called “clair-
voyants” and “mediums” who figure in
the advertising columns of every large
newspaper, would say that like them, the
lady simply allows her imagination free
rein and accepts fleeting mental impulses
as the communications of an imaginary
being from the spirit world supposed to
be en rapport with her. Then, too, the
indefiniteness of her references ,to cir-
cumstances smack a good deal of the
pagan oracles that were susceptible of
such interpretation as the priests might
find it convenient to give. The possibili-
ty of collusion and a knowledge of local
events easily acquired could be adduced
as bearing on the tests.
The spirit world is involved in mystery
that the human intellect has never suc-
ceeded in penetrating It is beyond the
ken of mortal and finite mind. In
some respects the world bows at the
shrine of paganism as freely as it did
three thousand years ago, when the
mythical Olympian Jupiter ruled the
gods and spirits of the earth and skies,
and when the Delphic oracles and the
auguries were consulted concerning the
fates of men. Of the unknown condition
beyond this life the world is as much in
darkness to-day as it was when the rec-
ord of human events began. Science has
done much to unfold the mysteries of
material life and agencies and proves the
existence of an infinite intelligence, but
it can never lift the pall that divides the
known as it exists in life from, the un-
known as it is when human life has
ceased to exist. The diversity of creeds
and doctrines and dogmas are evidences
of this. The Mohommedan or Hindu
or Buddhist are as sincere in their belief
and as strong positivists in these re-
spective systems of religious belief as the
adherents of the orthodox creeds.
It is an innate principle in the human
constitution to ever strive for the un-
attainable. Has spiritualism opened up
to human knowledge any portion of the
celestial arcane ? If not* cui bono ?
Clem & Henry have something new to
tell their patrons every day. And some
new sort of drink. o
