Trm attempt to enforce the Sunday
law through the means OF grand jury
indictments is an usurpation OF long es-
tablished natural rights. The Sunday
law, as II now stands, is relic OF that
brass bound Puritanism that found it
necessary to burn witches at the stake,
and at this time is entirely at variance
with the customs, habits and needs of
the people Of city like San Antonio.
Whenever that happy time comes that
all creeds will believe alike, and will
worship at the same shrine, then IL will
be more than possible that such statute
az law can be easily enforced and have
it work satisfactorily to all concerned,
but until that time the present attempt
is very much in the nature of religious
intolerance in these days Of free thought
and advancement.

April, the most pleasant and beautiful
month of the spring in this, our balmy
Southern climate, is upon us. IT'S at
this season, as the poet informs us, that
'the minds of youth lightly turn to
thoughts of love-" All nature has
donned its vernal robe, the fragrant
flowers and beautiful blossoms abound,
and the birds sing their merry songs.
This is also a season for practical mat
tiers when the minds of practical people
are seriously turned to thoughts of light
apparel and good clothes. The heavy
garments of winter are to be cast aside
and seasonable clothing put on. In
casting about our city Astounding in well
stocked establishments. one desires TO
select place where he can find a yarie-
ty, and at the same time the finest quail
ity of goods. Nowhere in the city can
this be more readily done than at the
grand, palatial establishment of j. Joske
q Sons, who are eminently the leaders in
their lines. Their immense and popular
establishment occupying Nos. 10 and 10.
Alamo street, and extending clear back
to Losoya street, is filled with one of the
largest, finest and best assorted sto cks
to be found in any city. Clothing and
dry goods In endless variety, and all ar
ticles pertaining to dress for ladies or
gentlemen, tailoring, etc., can be found
here, and the customer can inspect the
goods beneath the bright glare of day-
light, so well is the establishment
lighted. 1t is never necessary to
light the gas in daylight here. The
stock is excellently and conveniently ar
ranged, and attendants polite, courteous
ana accommodating, always ready to
show it. Each department is arranged
TO itself, and the whole shows how thor
oughly Messrs. Joske d Sons. understand
their business and knowthe wants oftheir
patrons. They are business men and
do business on business principles. The
Immense, well-lighted basement is also
filled with goods, which can con-
veniently and readily be inspected. A
visit to this great house will be well re-
paid, for 1t beats all competition and its
patrons are always pleased, Remember

In WAS formerly high treason to speak
of the probability of the division of the
State, but It begins to look az If the
Democratic State machine was liable TO
accomplish something of that kind fthe
breakup continues like il has been in
the past six months. That the political
leaders are in favor of IL is an open secret,
and that II is desired is equally true.
The following from the Fort Worth
Democrat shows n most positive inclina
tion in that direction, although the rea-
son assigned is little bit lame: "The
friends $50 called) of Governor Ireland
have oyerstepped the mark in their
senseless and ungrateful attacks on
North Texas, and the feeling in this city
shows that this portion of North Texas
feels II. Less than two weeks ago six of
the most prominent Democrats in this
county were interviewed in our court
house, and five expressed themselves as
favoring Ireland's denomination. while
the sixth favored Peter Smith first and
then Ireland; since the Waco meeting
"h" oihN' thcot -tntltultH uuNt Itdu
what South Texas papers say. every
man of the six say openly he is against
Ireland. They say he does not know who
and where his friends are. and that
his refusal or neglect to muzzle his
organs show him to be in sympathy
with their utterances. Go to our court
house any day, talk to our leading citi-
zens on the streets or at their places of
business, and you will hear division of
the State spoken about in the most
sober and solemn terms. North Texas
Is tired Of being the newer of wood and
drawer of water for the Radical sections
Of the State, and being constantly and
perpetually snubbed. North Texas has
everything, has all, to gain by division
of the State and the formation of an in
dependent commonwealth, and if her
interests are not those of South Texas,
If that section has no further use for us,
can paddle her own canoe, we would be
poor sticks not TO cut loose from her
The Democrat only records facts when
it says that scores Of our people are
ready and anxious for division

The Legislature at the special session
passed resolution asking Messrs. Maxey
and Coke, United States Senators from
Texas. to support the Ead's proposition
for deep water of Galveston, but the
honorable gentlemen did not pay much
attention to the request, and it begins to
look as fthe Legislature had no special

manslaughter. I either helped to kill

says the Charlotte, N. c.. Observer
"when manufacturing enterprises will be
many where they are now few, when
the towns which are now small win be
large and populous cities, when other
towns not yet in existence win have
sprung up, all these demanding new
highways Of trades and supplies; these
highways, railroads. opening up new
sections Of country and developing new
resources, adding still more to the
wealth not only Of the towns but also
OF the country, and thus the grand work
OF progress will go on. The policy that
best promotes this desirable end is the
policy that all Southern people, what
ever their calling, should favor"

a young lady on q journey. While going

bashful young mans hat, forced his fingers
through his hair, and kissed the back Of his
own hand, and thes slapped his owe face
violently. Everyone 10 the car looked in that
direction when the light came, and the friend
was apparently the most surprised Of all. The
mussed up appearance and confusion Of the
astonished victim convinced the spectators
that he had tried to steal kiss and had been
slapped. The young lady understood the
situstion and blushed painfully. The friends
got { A at the same station, a rough and tum-
bic followed, and the practical joker vas
