BALM! SUNDAY WEATHER
Thousands of Residents of San Anto-
nio and Visitors Enjoy Drives
Over the City.
An eight-mile east wind breezed over
San Antonio yesterday about noon and
from that time until lale in the evening
the streets and plazas wore occupied by
slowly moving throngs, with the sunny
side easily tho popular choice. To am'
from the churches and other places of
worship drifted thousands of men and
women, and as far as temperature was
concerned the day might well have been
ordered tor the Fiesta San Jacinto.
Morning dawned with the mercury
standing close to the freezing point, but
at S o'clock, with the advent of tho breeze
from the east, the rise began, and in
leaps and bounds tho Government record
climbed until at f> o'clock the maximum,
04 degrees, was reached.
At C o'clock, with the dropping of the
sun, the temperature began to fall, slow-
ly at first and later at about five de
grees an hour. By midnight it had be-
come itractically stationary, though the
prediction of tho Government bureau for
today is "colder."
Many took advantage of the oppor£
nitv offered by the pleasant weather by
taking motor car excursions to surround-
ing points of interest, tVie Medina dam
and mission loon holding the principal
attractions for visitor;:, while, many San
Antonians boarded street cars for rides
over the city.

REYES AUCTION TODAY
Household Effects of Revolution Lead-
er to Be Sold Under Hammer.
An auction of more than usual Interest
will be held at 701 San Pedro Avenue this
morning when the household goods of
Gen. Bernardo Reyes, Mexican revolu-
tionist, will be sold under the hammer.
It is anticipated that a goodly crowd of
the followers of tho general, as well as
the usual number of the curious, will he
present when the sale starts at 10 o'clock.
Some say that this will probauly be uie
last chance for years to purchase a table
over which conspirators planned the over-
throw of a republic. Many of the pieces
which will be sold are valuable aside
from any historic interest which they
may have for future generations.
DULL BITTERNESS OF FROZEN
NORTH STARTS WEALTHY HU-
MANITY SOUTHWARD.
THIS CITY POPULAR RESORT
With the return of the warm sunshine
yesterday and indications of a continuation
of the kind of weaVier San Antonio !■
accustomed to, came a decided rise in the
spirits of hotel men in the city. Business
has been god for the early part of the
season, but atmospherical conditions the
last two weeks have kept them busy ex-
plaining to guests what au almost unheard
of spell of weather it has been for this
part of the world.
Managers of the St. Anthony, Guuter
and Monger hotels were uuanimous in ex-
pressing the opinion last night the uext
three months will be* productive of one
of the best lourist seasons in the history
of San Antonio, lu addition to the heavy
winter trade an exceptionally good sum-
mer business is anticipated on account of
J the recent raiio. which indicate a pros-
porous season for farmers and cattlemen.
"We have had a big early business," said
\od Flynn. assistant manager of the Gun-
tor, last night. "Our books show an in-
crease of practically 75 per cent over the
some period last year. We are making
preparations to handle a heavy trade for
J several months on account of the usual
winter tourist business, which will be bet-
ter than usual on account of the extreme
cold weather in the North and Bast. With
good crops and health conditions next
spring and summer there will he an un-
usually big Texas business to handle."
F. M. Swearingen manager of the St.
Anthony, expressed himself as being well
satisfied with prospects for the year.
"Our business is going to show a marked
gain over other years." he said. "Reserva-
tions hare been coming in from all over
the country and the outlook lg encour-
aging."
Horner R. Matthews of the St. Anthony
said business for the month of Decem-
ber showed a gratifying increase over the
same month a year ago.
"This zero weather, which our brothers
are experiencing all through the North and
East, will he good for Sari Antonio." he
said. "A number of guests have arrived
the last few days who prooahly would not
have come had it not been for the un-
usually severe cold. The indications are
good for a big tourist season here."
Another hotel manager, confident of a
successful year for the hotel men and San
Antonio is J. F. McGowan of the Monger.
"We hav> a lot of business coming,"
ho said. "The season has started off well
and I am confident it will continue. There
will be a heavy traffic to California this
winter which will be of much benefit to
us, in addition to the exclusive tourist
business here. San Antonio is a conveni-
ent places to break u journey across the
continent and the transient tourist trade
derived from this source will he of con-
siderable importance. We will have an
ii flux of visitors when the hall teams from
the big leagues are here in the early spring
and there are many other indications of
a good year's business ahead."

Bob Barker, the local candidate for
State Comptroller, who has ;ust given out
his platform, asserts that the office can
bo placed on a more efficient basis by
economic organization and the elimina-
tion of unnecessary work.
In outlining his policies Mr. Barker
says "I am reasonably certain a much
more efficient and economic organization
of the departmental forces can be made
than now obtains, and better service se-
cured. For example, it may be pointed
out that the department is now divided
into five or six branches, operating as
independent units, whereas two depart-
ments would he sufficient, namely, au-
diting and bookkeeping. The work could
be centralized and unified and better re-
sults secured. Much unnecessary work
is done in handling the tax records,
whereas nothing more is required than
to secure a proper accounting to the
State for its part of the taxes. The du-
ties of the office are largely administra-
tive, and for that reason the question of
public policy calling for a platform is
eliminated."
Air. Barker has become well acquainted
witli the business affairs of the State by
a service of ten years as clerk in the
Comptroller's Department and as chief
clerk of the House of Representatives.
The office of State Comptroller ts one of
the most Important of the elective of-
fices, as practically all State funds are
disbursed on his warrant, and he is book-
keeper for the State.

I RSI LA ST. GEORGE.
Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm • s a
most entrancingly pleasant person in .he
play. She is quite the nicest, daintiest,
primmest little individual imaginable all
the time she Is standiug in the middle
of the stage flirting her hair ribbons and
talking every minute of the time. .She
is the incarnation of the freshness nd
sweetness of simple youth. Off the stage
she is all of that, and some more be-
sides.
Rebecca, or Miss Ursula St. George,
yesterday was interviewed when her
mamma wasn't there to tell her what to
say. She was just, the slightest bit
afraid to talk at first arid sat on '.he
edge of the. bed in her apartment in the
St. Anthony Hotel and rubbed her eyes
and pretended that, she was sleepy to
gain time, and worked off a lot of gra-
cious, appreciative remarks about San
Antonio. Then, because it is still new
to be a leading lady, and still delightful
to have opinions and lo talk about them,
she forgot herself and said quite a lot
of things.
"X think it is best to get your educa-
tion in the business that you mean to
pursue," she admitted, when asked why
she had taken to the theatrical profes-
sion so early in life.
"Of course, sixteen is young to bo
playing the leading part in any com-
pany," she added, "especially when you
Lave been on tho stage for two years
before you actually turned sixteen. My
mother objected at first, but when I got
the chance to go on at the New Theater
in tho initial production of Mastorlin?k\s
"Blue Bird," f teased so persistently
that my parents finally gave in and al-
lowed me to take the part. Of course,
since then there have been other things
to do in tho repertoire of the New Thea-
ter, and 1 have been kept busy all tho
time."
Rebecca's opinion of Rebecca is inter-
esting.
"I think Rebecca would have been a
wonderful leader if she had been born
in a city under the right, sort of circum-
stances," said Miss St. George. "Though
simplicity is the keynote of the charac-
ter, Rebecca is really a born manager,
and could adapt herself to every sort of
situation."
Miss St. George was coached in her
part by Mrs. Kate Douglas Wiggin her-
self, the lady who wrote Rebecca, and
the says that she found Mrs. Wiggin's
suggestions invaluable.

Association Anticipate Great
Improvement Next Year.
Secretary Wantzloeben closed the doors
of the first annual poultry show of the
Done Star Poultry Association at 10
o'clock last night and the most successful
poultry exhibit ever held in San Antonio
ended. Although the show had been a
greater success than Its promoters dream -
cd of. not one of the officers of the local
association was sorry to see the doors
close. All of those in charge have worked
hard and devoted much time from their
business, and those reasons, combined with
tho responsibility of the euro of several
thousand dollars' worth of fine chickens,
weighed heavily upon them.
During the seven days on which the
show was open to the public over three
thousand visitors looked upon the prize-
winners and the good crowds left enough
money to Insure a surplus when the af-
fair.-. of (he show are closed up. This
morning the officers of the association
will sell the twenty dozen "ggs which the
h :iis of exhibition laid during the week.
Before the eggs are offered for sale the
fertility of the eggs will be destroyed so
they will bo valueless for setting pur-
poses.
As soon as the doors of the show were
closed last night the birds of out-of-town
exhibitors were crated and shipped to
their owners. The local birds will be
carted to their yards in different parts
of the city today.
On account of the entries not coming'
in as fast as desired the awards for the
prize eggs were not made until la-st night.
Several dozen were exhibited and tho
prizes were won by San Antonio hen
owners. The winners were: Uest. dozen
white eggs, C. C. Leel; best dozen red
eggs F. C. Wantzloeben, second \V. 11.
