The Galveston News says of it "From the rising of the curtain on tlie first act until it falls in the last it was never lacking in interest, and held the attention of the audienoa, unlike the many plays which have appearod in this city with one or two good actors and the rest drone9, "Booties' Baby" diffors. All are first class and capable, and present the play in a manner that Galveston tueat re goers relish. To say it met with th. approval of tho audience is putting it mildly. Little Josie Arthur, as "Mignon," "Booties' Baby," on whom the plot of the play centres, is a wonderful child notress, and is a fitting rival to Georgia Cooper, 'Little Lord Fauntleroy." She is but ulght years of age, but her elocutionary powers and easy, graceful actions would do credit in one of older years.

Some have rightfully termed her the only rival of 'Little Lord Fauntleroy. JOE MURPHY will appear at the Aoademy to morrow evening in "Shaun Uuue" and Friday evening in "Tho Kerry Gow." Of the former, the Boston Herald says: "The Globe Theatre contained two large audionces yesterday, and Mr. Joseph Murphy was heartily received in "Shaun Ilhue," one of tho most interesting Irish plays, as well as one of the most entertaining in his repertoire. "Shaun Kb ue" will be given for tho balance oi tho week." MAHGARET MATHER on Saturday evening will be one of the treats of the season. This actress is a great favorite here, and at this appearance will doubtless score another triumph.

THE SELECT COUNCIL Mayor Fellow's Veto Read at the Last Meeting Sustained Ordinances. There were fourteen members present nt the adjourned meeting of the Select Council last night. President Sanderson was in the ohair. The minutes of three meetings were read. This was not finished until 8:20 o'olock.

The same action was taken on the contract to construct the Capouse avenuo sewor, awarded to the same parties. The Mayor's veto of tho ordlnanoc granting a team of horses to tho Hook and Ladder Company came up for consideration. The veto was sustained, but before this action was taken there was quite a discu3sion of hose matters in generaL It was represented by Mr. Kearney that there is not a single bose company in the city that has a sufficient quantity of hose.

A communication was received from the Board of Health stating that it recommended that provision bo made for the appointment a Food Inspector. This was referred to tho Estimate Committee. A petition was received from John Weir, of the Seventh ward, asking that tho city take means of ascertaining how much damage has been done his property by a sower which had been put through it. He estimated his loss at $750. This was referred to tho Sewers and Drains Committee An ordluanco for a pavement on Wasliburn streot came up with tho Common Council amendments.

The Select body refused to concur in them and after some discussion the matter went over until tho next meeting. A number of ordinances from the Common Council were read aud wore roforrod lo the proper oommitteos. Common Council tax exonerations wero conourrod in, as were a number of resolutions, hitherto reported. Among the ordinances introduced was one by Mr. Sanderson providing fur the construction of a sewer on Wosliitigtou avenno In the Fourth sower district, from the northerly boundary of said district, to the main sower therein.

SOUTH SIDE. An Important Interview TVitU a German Democrat Supper at the John Bode Chapel Notes of Interest irom Over the Roaring Brook. The basement of the new German church corner of Prosneot avenue ana ueecn street. oomDleted. The congregation expect to hold the first services on Christmas day.

Miss Lixzie Barrett, of Carbondale, is visiting at Officer Boland's on Pittston avo aue. Contractor Max PhiliDS has commenced lavins the Stone pavement at the corner ot Cedar avenue and Alder street. About 25 foot was laid yestorday and it looked liito a substantial piece of work. Diptueria and typhoid fever are prevalent on tuo aoutii side to an alarming extent. Tho South Side Athletic club will have a ball and oontest at Natter's Hall this evening.

Two verv Doorlv attended Domoeratio meetings were held on the South Side last eveninir. One at D. Battle's hotel on Pros pect avenue, and tho other nt Natter's hall, on Alder street At the latter place, the number of people on the stane who were to make speeches exceeded the number of Democrats in the hall and almost equalled the total number of psopio in the hail. it. Fitzsimmons was the first speaker and was followed bv Hon.

L. Amermnn, Jfrank John sou, Dr. P. F. Gunsier and Hon.

M. E. McDonald. Whv the attendance was so small in a Democratic stronghold is a oonundrum. The P.inggold band held a largely attended ball at Workingman hail last evening, ino Colored Quartete were on hand, and amused the gathering with antics and meiouios.

AK INTERVIEW WOltTH SHADING. Bolieving that the opiuion of a prominent German Democrat of the South Side will make interesting reading for the readers of Thb Republican, the following leading question was asked him in connection with the Congressional race now in progress. Well Mr. I suppose Amerman will got a pretty solid German votol His eyes opened in surprise. How do you suppose the many German protectionists will volet was his query in answer.

"Do you think for one moment that any of the many Ger mans working in or about the steel works cau conscientiously vote for Amerman and bis free trade policy. It you think so there will be a surprise in store for you election night." After assuring the gentleman that the question was only propounded in order to obtain his views he continued with other arguments of which the following are extracts: "The city of Scranton is comparatively young aud needs at the present time the very best Kind of Protective legislation possible in order to foster the many infant industries which have sprung up in our midst. "We have sent two Demo crats to Wnshington namely, Connolly and Lynch, and what did they do more than draw their salaries? Compare their record With that of the Hon. J. A.

Scranton, it there be any chance of comparison. Mr. Amerman is a gocd man, but the fact that Mr. Scranton is better nnd can and will do more for the City of Scranton, remains undisputed Why, it would require the two year term in Washington before Amerman would be recognized and I don believe the citizens of Scranton can afford to wait for some of the necessary legislation for two years granting that ne would be recognized at the end ot that time." Ho concluded by saying "don't fool vour sell on the German vote." Mr. Scranton has lost none of his popularity of two years ago on tho South Side.

Williams. Mr. James Heaton and family, of Hyde Park avenue, have returned from a visit in Bioomsburg. Another meeting to discuss the bridge project will be held in Odd Fellow's Hall, South Main avenue, next Saturday evening. THE MASS MEETINO.

About 250 citizens, assembled in Hears' Hall last evoning to hear the bridge question discussed by representative citizens who have interosted themselves in this matter solely for the purpose of laying the project clearly before the public so they may vote Intelligently when it comes to a ballot on tho 4th of November next Ex Counoilman Roland Thomas presided at the meeting and introduced the speakers. On the stage wore seated Mayor Fellows, Hon. T1. V. Powderly, Col.

J. A. Price and Prothonotary T. H. Dale.

The four gentlemen, in turn, spoke on the subject, and presented very convincing arguments in favor of tho project. This, in itself, four of the brainiest, most prominent and far sighted citizens ot this municipality, owning property in many different sections, of the city, and all heartily in favor of and advocating the ereotion of tho bridges, is an argument which should be forcible enough to convince the loudest objector that the proposed schomo will be a benefit. Col. Price exhibited plans of the bridges and read a letter from the Edge Moor Bridge Works, in whioh that firm states they cau and will agree to erect the bridges for $216,000, 134,000 iess the amount at first thought necessary for the expenditure. Mr.

Dale gave facts and figures which go to show "that a property holder who is asseased with $1,000 valuation will have but fifty cents per year additional taxes to pay, providing the bridges are built. Sir. Po wderly illustrated by comparisons why the people of Scranton should not object to tho proposed improvements. In the first place ho said that when Pittsburg had but 55.000 population seven bridges were erected, at a cost of muny times more than the sum required to nut up three bridges in this city which has 85,000 population. He nlso said that the outlying districts could not expect manufactories to locate at any distance from the centre of the city with the present moans of communication.

If the bridges were built then new fields will be opened nnd uninhabited places built up with homes, factories and mills located and the city enriched and enlarged. He said such a thing will be necessary before muny years especially in the mining dietricis, as the coai will not last forevor, und the men must, needs be, find some place for omploymont. In concluding his argument on this point he said, in the way ot illustration, that if a person were to go up in a balloon and take a look at this city it would be seen that where there are bridges there is a dense population and where the uvenues of commerce are lacking the districts are in some instances totally un inhabltated or scattered over with but a few signs of being populated. Several of the auditors who wore either not etear on the subject or were against the project asked several questions from the speakers which were in each instance answered where either of the gentlemen on the singe or some one in the audience was informed on the subject. In making an answer to one of these questions Col.

Price, through being uninformed made a slight misstatement concerning the grade on Eigth street. One of the audienoe who is an employee in the City Engineer's department jumped to his feet and in an indignant manner reluted tho statement of the Colonel, saying: "iou have no right to go about this city misrepresenting things concerning the City Engineer." The geniul Colonel gave bim an explanation. At the close of tho meeting the plans and drawings were examined by many present who expressed their approval of the same and the entire projeot as well.
