TUESDAY, DECEMBER 26, 1893.
AN EMINENT SCHOLAR.
At the Beach hotel, staying in Galveston
for a few days, Is one of the most eminent
scholars of the age. He is Dr. Michael L.
Radkinsohn, a Russian scholar, who bears
with him as an Indorsement of his worth
and position the names of the most eminent
Jewish rabbis in England and the conti-
nent.
For four years this most learned man
has been in America. It may be said,
struggling for a living. After his education
in Russia had been carried into the high-
est branches of learning the young Israel-
ite was sent to Paris and Berlin, and there
became prominent. He was gifted with a
great desire to accomplish the most diffi-
cult Investigations into the history of his
race, and, returning to Russia, he asked
for permission from the secretary of state
to publish a Hebrew paper.
The request was denied, but the ambitious
writer went to' Koenigsberg and there
Issued the Call. It was then 1875, and the
papeis were sent into Russia until 1879,
when the secretary of vState issued orders
that the paper should no longer cross the
border. However, friends! tried" to have
the order changed and the paper continued
to find its way into Russia until 1880. After
that year he was not allowed to send a
copy into the czar's domain, and on the 1st
of January, 1881, the name of the paper
was changed anffMt was published in Ber-
lin. It was then Sffilled the Hochause. Only
fourteen copies dver reached Russia, for
another order of the secretary of state
prohibited its being received. A last at-
tempt to right the injuries of his people
by the aid of the journal was made in
Hamburg. This time only seven copies
were printed before the publication was
stopped.
After that he went back to Berlin, and
there, at the request of Prof. Lauarus,
tutor of Emperor Frederick, wrote on the
Babylon and Palestine talmuds. The work
was a masterpiece and attracted widespread
attention. In England his works are in the
principal museums.w Other publications
were made while hi was employed in the
British museum.
Some four years ago he carried out a
long-cherished wish and came to America.
While in this country the "History of
Amulets, Charms and Talismans" was pub-
lished. It went back to the earliest days
and gave the results of a long Investiga-
tion into thHr nature and origin. He is now
accumulating data for a large work
which will be called "A Juurney Through
America." His last publication has re-
ceived great praise from the most promi-
nent professors of the United States. It
has been his life-long desire to improve the
condition of the Jews in Russia and pro-
mote education among the Jews of the en-
tire world. He has a brother, also a noted
writer, who is now living in Palestine.
Dr. Radkinsohn has been a welcome vis-
itor to The News since his arrival in Gal-
veston, and is seeing the city during his
visit here under the excellent guidance of
Rabbi Cohen of Temple 13'nal Israel.
We may not be gifted with the power of
doing such altitudinous blowing as some
of our contemporaries, but believe we do
possess the ability to give more solid value
for the money than any other concern here.

holiday presents at surprisingly low prices;

CHRISTMAS FOOTBALL
A Very Livfily Game, in Which
Neither Side Scores
a Point.
A Good Day for Football Playing—Some-
thing About the Players and the
Big Sunday Games.
The morning with Its thick fog, develop-
ing into a pouring rain, made the lovers
of foot ball rather sad, as they had their
minds on the match to be played at the
beach park yesterday afternoon. Some
500 or more ladies and gentlemen wit-
nessed the game from the grand stand, or
were gathered in long lines at the sides
and ends of the field. There were no offi-
cers to keep the crowd from encroaching
on the rectangle, and the players were
often greatly hindered. When a good play
was made by either side the crowd would
make it necessary for time to be called
until the field could be cleared again.
In the first-half there was a good deal
of rough playing, and an observer not well
acquainted with the game would have
called It a slugging match rather than a
foot ball game. During the second half,
however, both sides played a good game,
and on the whole the spectators were well
pleased throughout. In general the game
was much rougher than any of the games
with the Ball school boys, and if foot ball
is to remain pppular the element of rough
playing must be eliminated.
It would be difficult to state which side
played the better game, and the very fact
•that neither scored a point shows that
they were pretty evenly matched. In the
first half the ball was kept on Y. M. C. A.
ground for the most part, but the Rugby's
seemed to be more exhausted in the second
half than their opponents* and the ball
was kept in their territory most of the
time.
Owing to the absence of Mr. Graham
Ooldthwait, who was to have acted as
umpire, Mr. John Sealy .acted in his stead,
but when Mr. Ooldthwait arrived fifteen
minutes after the beginning of the game,
Mr. Sealy resigned his position to Mr.
Goldthwait.
Mr. F. A. Hauslein a*rted as referee. The
players with their positions were the
same as published in the Sunday News.
The game was called at 3.10 p. m., and
the following are the plays in detail:
The Rugbys win the toss and take the
ball. Mann gains one yard by the wedge
play at the kick-off. Flint gains twenty-
five yards around the end by excellent in-
terference and was downed by Smith. Rog-
ers next has the ball, but makes no gain.
Good tackling by Y. M. C. A. Sturgls
bucks the center for six yards. Zizlnia
carries the ball around left end and is
downed on the Y. M. C. A. 25-yard line.
It Is Rugby's first down again. Rogers
makes no gain. Sturgis buoks center for
one yard. Rugbys make a bluff V, lose 10
yards and keep the bull on the first down.
Rugbys gain 25 yards by sending Mann
around right end. Rogers bucks the cen-
ter for 5 yards more, and the Rugbys keep
the ball on the first down. Sturgis bucks
the center, and the ball Is downed on the
Y. M. C. A. 5-yard line. Rugbys lose the
ball on the third down. The Y. M. C. A.'s
take the ball back 5 yards for a kick-out,
but, after a good deal of wrangling, the
play is not allowed, and the ball was
taken back to the spot where it was last
downed. The Y. M. C. A.'s advance the
ball 5 yards, but fumble, and Mann gets
the ball on the Y. M. C. A. 10-yard line.
Rogers loses 6 yards. Sturgis makes 2
yards around left end, but the Rugbys
lose the ball on the third down. Selby
takes the ball around left end, but makes
no gain. Scales punts down the field to
Sturgis, who brings the ball back to the
Y. M. C. A. 25-yard line. Flint bucked
center for 4 yards. Rogers loses 2
yards, and it is Y. M. C. A.'s ball. Y. M.
C. A.'s gain 6 yards through the center,
but fumble the ball. Sturgis loses 2 yards
for the Rugbys around left end. Rugbys
get 5 yards on off side play. The tandem
center play of the Rugbys makes no gain.
Y. M. C. A.'s ball on the third down, but
make no gain on three downs. The Rug-
bys get the ball, but mistake signals, and
the Y. M. C. A.'s get the ball on a fum-
ble. The Rugbys get 5 yards on off side
play, and time is called.
Score: Rugbys, 0; Y. M. C. A.'s, Q.
SECOND HALF.
Y. M. C. A.'s have the ball at kick-off.
Collins has the ball, but loses 5 yards.
Collins bucks center for 5 yards, and
Church bucks center for 5 yards more,
so that it is Y. M. C. A.'s first down. Col-
lins bucks center for three yards, but
sprains his ankle and has to withdraw from
the field. Church plays half and Brock
takes his place. Church center for 6 yards.
Selby makes a fine run for 14 yards, and
is beautifully downed by Rogers. Church
goes through center for 6 yards. Scales
around left end makes 7 yards. Y. M. C.
A.'s form V. Church has the ball and loses
2 yards. Church goes through center, gains
1 yard, and through center again, gains 2.
Rugbys get the ball on the third down.
Rogers gains 3 yards and bucks the cen-
ter for two yards more. Mann bucks cen-
ter for 5 yards. Sturgis tries to buck, but
the Y. M. C. A.'s stand like a stone wall.
Mann bucks center for 6 yards. Sturgis
and Mann buck center for 4 yards, and on
third down Sturgis kicks to Scales, who
runs 15 yards. Ball Is on the Y. M. C. A.
25-yard line. Y. M. C. A.'s fumble, end
McLemore falls on the ball. Mann bucks
center for 2 yards, and Sturgis for 4 more.
Rogers makes a pretty run around left
end for 10 yards. Zezinia loses 2 yards.
Rugbys get the ball on three downs, but
fumble, and Y. M. C. A.'s again have the
ball. Y. M. C. A.'s buck center, there Is
a big scramble, Sutllt gets the ball and
makes a pretty run of 40 yards. Smith
gains 1 yard, and again 4 yards. Smith
tries again, but makes no gain, and time
is called with the ball on the Rugbys' 25-
yard line. ,
Score: Rugbys, 0; Y. M. C. A. s, 0.

DROWNED IN THE BAY.
The Body of Engineer James Mufrphy Found
Near His Boat.
The body of James Murphy, engineer of
<h»> slate quarantine steamer Ilygeia, was
found floating on the surface of the water
a't Pier 15 at 3.30 o'clock yesterday afternoon
and not twenty feet away from the vessel.
The captain of the steamer states that the
Hvgela, oame up from the quarantine sta-
tion ait 11.30 o'clock yesterday morning and
made fast to the pier. The captain and
fireman started up town, the former telling
Murphy that the steamer would have to
return to the station during the afternoon,
and the latter responded "All right; I think
1 will scrape myself," meaning that he
would take a shave. When the captain re-
turned he saw a man's hat floating on the
water near the steamer, and shortly after~
ward discovered his body, which was taken
out of t'he water and placed on deck, but
life was extinct. It was surmised that Mur-
phy was attacked by vertigo, and, losing
his balance, fell Into the bay ana was
drowned. He was a well known engineer,
und 'had been on steamers In and around
the harbor for years. Deceased was a mem-
ber of the Emmet benevolent association
and the Marine engineers' association. The
funeral will take place from St. Mary's ca-
thedral at 10 o'clock this morning.
AMUSEMENTS.
Grau's Opera Company a/t the Tremont.
Tremont opera 'house was filled to its ut-
most capacity both at the matinee and
night performances yesiterday.
The attraction was Grau's opera com-
pany, so favorably known In Galveston. The
matinee performance was Boccaccio and
that at night Dorothy. It is hard to say
which was more favorably received by the
music-loving people of Galveston. Both per-
formances were so pleasing, the company so
evenly balanced and trained that, as a mat-
ter ot fact, the last thing they present
seems the best, so that the advantage 'lies
with Dorothy. Last winter when the com-
pany was here Boccaccio carried off tihe
palm, It being the pronounced favorite, so
much so that a repetition was demanded.
Yesterday at the matinee it was superbly
placed upon the stage and made if possible
a better impression than ever.
But Dorothy, at night, was extremely
pleasing. The music is delightful, and the
whole opera abounds In catchy and melo-
dious airs.
Miss Edith Mason was warmly received
by the audle«ice. She is a great favorLte
here, as she is all over the south. Her
voice is better, if that be possible, than
when she wan here last, while there Is a
marked Improvement in her acting. She is
every bit as natural as ever, however, and
sings wi-th an ease and grace which Is lr-
rislstlble, as was evidenced by the fact
that the audience demanded an encore at
the close of each of her airs last night.
Mr. Stanley Felch, another favorite, was
funnier than ever, and kept the aydience in
roars of laughter from the moment he came
upon the stage until he was able to make
his escape from it, for he always left it
against tihe protests of the audience.
Miss Bessie Fairbarn as Priscilla was
inimitable, and it is difficult to say which
of the two provoked the most laughter,
she or Mr. Felch. It really seems unfair
to mention any single member of the com-
pany to the exclusion of the others, for all
are good. The company under the skillful
direction of Mr. Grau has sought and
found its place in the musical world. It
has mastered the light operas and at-
tempts nothing beyond them. However,
there has been nothing neglected to insure
success in the field chosen. There are no
weak points and only the best talent is
chosen. The result Is an evenly balanced
troupe, capable of presenting in the most
pleasing and artistic maimer anything
they attempt.
One of the notable features this season
is the costumes, which are new and hard-
some, many of them very elegant. To-
night the opera will be "Ship Ahoy," and
those who desire seats 'had best call early,
for the Grau opera company is a great
favorite here and the house will no doubt
be crowded.
COMEDY PERFORMANCE.
Dan Morris Sullivan and Michael S.
WThalen's comedy company played last
night in the assembly room of the cathe-
dral parochial school to a large and highly
appreciative audience. The play which they
rendered was "Barney's Farewell." It Is
brimful of fun and genuine Celtic wit and
humor. The troupe is one of excsntional
merit. The impersonations are free from
extravagance on the one hand and far
fetOhedness on the other. Fine songs are
introduced. These arouse unbounded en-
thusiasm. Miss Eileen Desmond, who sus-
tains the major part of the musical fea-
ture of the programme, rendered her part
with taste and feeling and won hearty
applause throughout. Mr. Whalen is line
and makes a hit whenever he appears before
the audience.
This company will give a matiriae per-
formance to-day and will also play to-
night.
CHRISTMAS ALONG THE WHARF.
Yesterday being Christmas the day was
observed as a general holiday among the
shipping. Several of the ships were decor-
ated with flags. Most noticeable among
the English steamers now In port was the
old-timer, the steamship Avona of London,
commanded by Captain J. Harrison. Her
commander was made the recipient of a
very handsome present by his officers and
engineers in the form of a silver inkstand
and accessories with a suitable inscription
as a token of the great respect and regard
he is held in by them.

ONE OF THE ELECT.
Dr. Cline Invited to Go to Wash-
ington as an Expert Weather
Forecaster.
His Essay Is One of Those Which Open the
Way to Advancement—How the
Contest Was Made.
The United States department of agri-
culture issued a circular September 9, 1893,
announcing a competitive examination for
a professorship in the weather bureau, open
to all who wished to enter for that de-
sirable position, 'which was to be given out
on merit. As a first step in the examina-
tion the competitors were required to pre-
pare an essay, not exceeding 3000 words,
upon "Weather Forecasts and How to Im-
prove Them," and submit the same to the
chief of the weather bureau by December
1, 1893. The essays were to be signed
by a nom de plume, with true name In
a sealed envelope attached, and thus go
into the hands of the board of examiners
who were to select the ten best essays,
the authors of which were to be invited
to present themselves at Washington city
for further examination. Dr. I. M. Cline,
the local forecast official of the United
States weather bureau for Texas, received
yesterday the agreeable information that
the board had examined the essays sub-
mitted In accordance with the above men-
tioned circular and that his Is one of the
accepted essays receiving the highest per
cent, and he is invited to present himself
at Washington for further competitive ex-
amination to determine which of the ten
shall have the position.
Dr. Cline, though a young man hardly
past 30 years, is no novice in meteorologi-
cal work, as readers of The News will call
to mind the fact that he has been a con-
tributor to this paper on meteorological and
agricultural subjects for nearly a decade.
His articles have been of great value In
bringing before the public the special
features of climate and agricultural re-
sources of Texas. They have been pub-
lished in various papers and some have
been put before the world as parts of spe-
cial executive documents of congress. In
addition to the above lines of work Dr.
Cline has done a greait deal of new and
interesting work in connection with medi-
cal meteorology. He has also lately pre-
pared an extensive and valuable memoir
on "Hot Winds Over the Eastern Slope of
the Rocky Mountains in Summer," which
The News hopes to give to its readers In
the near future.
Dr. Cline's success as a weather fore-
caster Is stronglv evinced In the remarka-
ble confidence placed by the Interested pub-
lic in his predictions for Texas which he
has been making for some years. While
those interested in the weather service
work in Texas wish him success they would
regret to see him called to other fields of
duty, as his place here would be a hard
one to fill.
