Yesterday that he desired to refue the proposition

DETERMINED SUICIDE OF A GIRL.

Mary O'NeI, age thirty-fve servant in the
employ of DR.. William t. Bull of No East
Thirty-elghth-st., committed suicide at halt
past 8 o'clock last evening by hang
ing herself with a clothes-ine IN the sub
cellar of the house. The suicide showed good deal
of determination, as the rope, which was not suf-
GENTLY long TO lift her from the ground, was at
tho floor. She was found by fellow
servant named Lizzie Griffith and when
found life was not extinct. The unfortunate
woman had thrown herself forward on the rope and
was slowly strangling TO death. Lizzie Griffith ran
up stairs and gave tho alarm TO patient named
Ofierman who was waiting for the return OF the
doctor, and Oherman went to hunt up policeman.
BY the time one was found and the wretched woman
was at length cut down. she was beyond resusc-
tation The following note was found beside her !:
II had to know that John Somers was arrested |
would have gone to clear him. am not guilty know
1 will be made Iprefer to die and get out Of y all.
MARY O'NEIL-
The note and the signature both in the
Handwriting of women, but they we're not written
ky the same hand. LIZZIE Griffith said that the
John Somers referred to was friend OF
Mary. Four years ago he had been
accused of stealing some jewelry and the note
evidently referred 10 this. LIZZIE further
said that in the afternoon she and Mary were on
the roof together and Mary had threatened TO throw
herself down. Lizzie called for a policeman but
when one came Mary said that she had been fool
ing" The woman had acted strangely for several
days. Her trunks were found packed and
her papers put in or0er.
Noone knew where John Somers lived. John Can
tell who lives at Tenth-ave. and Forty -fourth-st.
and who knew Mary ONeil well, said that she
was an honest woman.

An energetic committee are working to
secure race meeting at the old fair grounds
in August next, and good fund is being
raised to provide liberal purses. 1t is pro-
posed to have two races and one trottng race
on each day and to offer such prizes as shall
induce good competition. That is right, be-
cause, outside the trotting races, such meet
ings have hitherto been farce. Texas has
good stock, and its people are fond of races
There is, therefore, no reason why the San
Antonio races should not be of character
that shall rival those OF the Northern cities
and it only requires energy and public CO.
operation to attain this end.

Oh, What u Mistake.

The Express says that the LIGHT has just
discovered that there are opium dens in San
Antonio. AS usual, it is wrong. The LIGHT
has long known of their existence, and has
called public attention to them on several
occasions, but when the Express man re-
hashed an article from a New York paper,
making it refer to this city, and scandalized
the citizens by saying that many respectable
ladies visited those dens, it did them the JUS
tice to deny the truth of the libel. Wherever
the Chinese are, there will be opium smok-
ing to a greater or lesser degree, but having
regard 20 the extent and character OF our pop
u'ation, it is less practiced here than in any
other city.

Increased Taxation.

The County Commissioners, sitting rs a
Board of Equalization, have followed up their
action Of taxing public institutions by affixing
tax upon the Ursuline convent. The public
feeling against this taxation is very strong and
it is almost universally commended that it is
contrary to the spirit, if not the letter of the
law, upon which the action is based. Steps
are being taken to have the matter tested in
the superior courts with the least possible de-
lay. The same board have raised the Sunset
railroad assessment to $4,000, and upwards
