ported by the Jail officers to-day as IN
usually serious aid communicative.
No person was permitted to see him but
his spiritual adviser, who spent several
hours with him. One of the officers re-
marked that he has an anxious, hsggRFd
look. think he begins to realize that
he is doomed. Warden Crocker stated
that the execution will be private one
and only a few members of the press and
Jail officials will be permitted to witness
it. The galloWs was erected some days
ago in the east corridor efthe north wing.

ABOUT THAT SHOT AT THE QUEEN.
London, March 3.-MacLean was
charged at the police station with
shooting at the queen with intent to do
grevious bodily harm. He asked
whether any one was hurt, but the po-
lice refused to give him any informa-
ton. After searching the yard at the
railway station for an hour, this morn
ing, the police found small bullet i'm
beded in the ground. 1t bore the
marks of having first struck some other
object. 1t was right in the direction
of the spot over which the queens car
rage was passing, having probably
passed over her horses heads.
The queen and Princess Beatrice
walked on the castle terrace as usual
early this morning.
NOT VERY SERIOUS ABOUT 1T.
London, March s. The charge
brought against MacLean before the
Windsor magistrate to-day was for
shooting at the queen with intent to
murder. The prisoner was remanded
for week. Formal evidence was
taken concerning the prisoners arrest
and the finding of the bullet. Mac
Lean closely cross-examined several
of the witnesses. He did not seem to
be imbued with the seriousness Of his
position.

Temperance Revival in San Antonio.

In order that people may forever surrender
the idea that everything they see in newspa-
pers is unreliable, we give the following from
the Austin Siftings. Alex goes on the prin-
ciple that if you can't use your friends, who
can you use to play practical joke on?
We are glad to see that Miss Willard, OF
Chicago, who is travelling through Texas in
the interest of the temperance cause, has met
with great success in San Antonio. If there
is one particular city in Texas that presents a
fine field for reform in the way of temperance,
that city is San Antonio. There are more sa-
looms in that town than there are in Austin
when the legislature is in session. Heretofore
all efforts to organize temperance society
have failed on account of lack of enthusiasm
on the part of the leading citizens. Miss Will
lard, however seems to have overcome the
Indifference of the prominent citizens, and
her mission has been wonderfully sue
cessful. The lecture of Miss Willard took
C. AT an early hour the church was already
full, and before the lecture began every seat
was taken. On the platform were noticed
along with Rev. J. A. Kerr, minister of the
church, Col Fl. B. Andrews, Maj. Ii. Adams,
Rev. Geo. Hoerner, Frank Grice, of the Elk
press, Judge Siemering, of the Freie Presse,
Peter Freer, Sam. c. Bennett, J. B. Lacoste,
Ed. Rische, c. S. Noyes, CIV. Breckenridge,
of the national bank, Sam. Maverick, John
Fitzhenry. William Hoetling, Fermin Cassia-
no and many others. There was also dele
from the German Beethoven Glee Club, with
banner.
The proceedings began by Rev. A. A. Kerr
calling upon the audience to sing
''This is the way long have sought,
And mourned because found it not, I"
after which Rev. w. IT. buchanan read Sc
lection from Isaiah, commencing, "Woe unto
those who drink strong drink" After an
earnest prayer by Raw. w. J. Young, that the
young men of the city should be kept from
the dangers of the saloons, Rev. Kerr intro
duced Miss Willard.
We have not space at our disposal to give
even in brief, the admirable lecture of Miss
Willard. Let it suffice to say that it brought
tears to the eyes Of many of those present.
After the lecture Rev. George IIoemer pro-
ceeded 10 address the audience on the evil re-

AhtonlO Literary anu
Society.
The adjourned organization meeting of the
San Antonio debating society was held last
evening in Justice Shields office, the tenn
porary president, Alderman Copeland, occu-
plying the chair.
After the minutes were read and approved,
the meeting considered the report of the COM
mittee on constitution and bylaws, and
adopted it after certain trifling amendments
were made.
Messrs. J. Watson Weir, r. ]. Kendall, T.
T. Martin, John S. Muckie, Tyler c. Williams

bers.
The meeting then proceeded to elect the Of
ficers, to serve one year, with the following re-
suit:
President, Alderman !. II. Copeland.
Vice President, Gerald Griffin.
Secretary, Henry Ryder-Taylor.
Treasurer, c. L. Gruzev,ki.
The officers, according to the constitution
form the board of directors.
The consideration of the hall question was
deferred for further information on the sub
ject.
The dues were fixed at fifty cents monthly,
there being no initiation fee.
Owing to the lateness of the hour at which
the general business concluded the capital VS..
labor debate was postponed until Friday night,
when Mr.. Tyler c. Williams will also give a
reading.
Mr.. Frank Caldwell was nominated as es-
sayist for the following Friday, and debate
on the question SIS Universal Suffrage
Desirable?" was arranged, the affirmative
being taken by Messrs. G. F. Cotton and |.

Messrs. X. J. Kendall and =, 7. Martin.
The meeting was then adjourned until Fri
day next.

Tom PiggOt's Failure.
The Electric Light.


Last night the Electric Light company made
a display of their light from their place on
Commerce street.-the Callaghan building.
Five lamps were lighted in the second story
room and one hung out of the window. The
illumination in the building was intensely
brillant-in fact, the brightest sunlight at mid
day alone compares with it. The single lamp
swung from the window illuminated the street
so that people read their letters and newspa-
pers with ease on the sidewalk beneath. The
light was steady and beautiful-looking at
it from distance it resembled patch of sun
light eclipsing the rays of full moon. All
evening people called and looked at the Won
derful light. The lamps used are of the most
approved pattern of Weston patent, considered
equal to any of Edison's large lamps and
superior to the Brush.
The present machine will produce but ten
large lights; ii is really only the beginning of
the enterprise;-it will convince everyone of
the success.

suits that the sale of whiskey had upon the
community. His remarks were listened to
approvingly by all present, and several of the
audience rose and stated that he had not over
drawn the picture in the least.
William Iloeting, a reformed alderman,
briefly addressed the meeting on the evil eff
fects of beer drinking among the Germans,
and J. &. l.acoste bore similar testimony to
the evil effects Of absynthe among the French
element of the population.
A Bend Of Hope temperance was formed
with Cassius X. Brenneman, as president, and
c. 5. Noyes, chaplain. The Freie Presse was
declared the official organ of the organization.
After an earnest prayer by Rev. Mr.. Buchan-
an, that the old men might be saved from the
evils of intemperance, the Beethoven Glee
association sang that tou hing dirge-
''Deluded souls that dream of Heaven"
and meeting adjourned.
We hear that the band of the u. S. 22nd
infantry will shortly begin to play in the San
Pedro park. This will be pleasing addition
to the recreation of our citizens.

Anti-OX Replies.


Editor EVENING LIGHT:
In your yesterdays issue appears an article
headed, "Ox-Car Complains" in reply to
which please insert the following:
Concerning the opening of Buena Vista
street through the l. & G. N. depot, Mr.. Ok
cart apparently knows very little about our
public affairs, in fact nothing, otherwise he
would not attempt to discuss anything about
which he Knows nothing.
Mr.. Oxcart and his sort would do we'll to
investigate things more thoroughly before en-
deavoring to ridicule our city administration
through the columns of a paper, accomplish
ing nothing but only making a fool of them
selves.
When the l. & G. N. R. r. purchased the
depot grounds of Adams & Wickes, they
were cognizant of the fact that Buena Vista
street was in existence, to be used as
a thoroughfare; also their deeds will show
that their land is bounded by said street as
the records will show.
The |. & e. N. X. X. company acknowl-
edging Buena Vista street, why then should
our city not have a right to force the company
to move platform when same encroaches
half way across the public street?
Now does anybody mean to say, (save Mr.
x-Cart) who is gifted at all with little rea-
! soning power that on account of this little af-
fair the |. G. N. X. X. company would not
place their workshops here? If the railroad
company saw that they had any advantages as
well as conveniences at all by placing their
workshops here, no such little thing would
prevent them.
1t is pity that We have SO many narrow
minded citizens.
Yours, etc., ANTI-OX.
