Usually develops in early life,
and is a peculiar morbid con-
dition Of the system, usually
affecting the glands, often re-
sulting in swellings, enlarged
joints, assesses, thickening
Of the lips, enlarged neck, sore
eyes. A Scroful0uS condition
is often hereditary, but bad
diet, too free use OF fat meats,
bad air, want Of sunshine and
7ourishing food will induce
1t. Some people are troubled
with scrofulous swelling Of the
glands, and with ulcers and
kernels, which may cause very
little pain Others may havein-
ward Scrofula, Scrofula Of the
lungs, scrofula OF the spleen,
scrof4la Of the kidneys, and
scrofuia Of the bones. BUR-
DOCK BLOOD BITTERS will
drive away any case ofscrofula

THERE are three prime necessarles of
life, without which 1t cannot be sus-
tanned, and these are, air. water and
food, In the order named. Without the
two first, death soon comes in to relieve
the sufferer, but DR.. Tanner has proven
that life can be sustained for a long time
without food. 1t lie obligatory on the
City Government to furnish the people
plenty OF pure air and pure water. The
charter demands 1t. In order to secure
the first named, the city could contract
with any Individual or company to clean
the streets and remove all garbage and
oiial, and grant said parties the right to
tax every man, woman and child who
breathed this purified air certain sum,
according to size and quantity con
sumed. Should the city attempt this, a
howl would be set up that would reach
the very heavens. But such PROPOSE
ton would be founded on as sound prin-
ciples as are those on which the rights
of the Water-works Company are found
ed. The city authorities are bound to
put and keep the city In the best posi-
BILE sanitary condition, and water is one
OF the most necessary means Of santa
ton, and yet a company is given the
monopoly to furnish the same at exor-
bitant rates, thereby procluding its
liberal use for the maintenance
of good health. The city has a
right to order the removal Of any
business, or place that is judged to be
detrimental to public health, 1t has also
the right to condemn property for the
public use and determine the remunera-
tion therefor by agreement or through
the courts. Why then, on the ground
Of public health and public necessity,
cannot the city condemn the Water
works and pay for them the same rs II
would for the property necessary to
widen a street. d. b. speaks derisiyely

CAITAIN NJ. kENEDN, Of Corpus Christi,
is in the city, with rooms at the Menger.
lie has been suffering from the dengue,
to some extent. and has not been able to
get around among his friends. II
possibly Is well to say here that Captain
kennedy is one of the few great public
spirited men Of the Southwest. who at all
times employs his wealth In the attempt
to develop the resources, and build up
the many interests Of this section Of
the State. The prime Of his manhood
having been spent here, In the prosecu-
tion of the many enterprises in which he
has been factor. 1t Is meet and proper
that he should be n prominent figure in
the San Antonio and Arkansas Pass Rail-
road, and such is the fact. of the capital
put in the enterprise about 10 per cent.
of 1t came from him, Last spring, when
the enterprise needed start that would
inspire our own people with the proper
confidence, he came forward ana en-
tered into a contract for the construc-
ton of the first 30 miles of the line, for
which he would take stock and bonds,
and the only stipulations he made was
that the road should terminate at Aran-
sas Pass, on llarbor Island, and thar it
should be kept out of the control
Of Gould. Huntington, or other
systems. and be managed alone by
San Antonio stockholders and directors.
The LIGHT is led to mention this matter
because San Antonio mas not fully APP
preciated the great friendship Captain
Kennedy thereby displayed for this city
ard her prospects. lie had faith in the
city's future and he had faith in the sue
cess Of this gulf line of road, and he
showed his faith by that most positive
example-the advancement of hard cash.
San Antonio is fortonate in the friend
ship of such man ms Captain Kennedy,
and the Arkansas road lie fortunate In
having him for so sound hacker. lie
has been lavish with his money and
boundless in his friendship for the city
and her people, and should be rewarded
by the same grateful friendship and con-
ildence.

and that the other practices of the
 church are comparatively harmless.
 This IS mistake. The most obiec. tionable feature of Mormonism is,
 that II sets up an heirarchial form ol government antagonistic to the United States government, within the lin its of its domain. Polygamy is merely one of the obnoxious features of Nor. monlsm, and the act of Congress to suppress 1t was passed because-while Mormonlsm as whole was difficult to leglslate asainst-this one practice was Tn direct violation of the common law ot the country, and therefore could be suppressed by existing modes ot legal procedure. If polygamy could be wiped out, Mormonism would only be scotched, not killed,
