Our Street improvements.

Last week the reporter of the LIGHT havin z
expressed Il desire TO examine GOliad street
so soon as the work upon 1t should have been
completed Captain Jake Marshall, the con
tractor, yesterday evening took the reporter
in his buggy an drove over GOliad street.
stopping at intervals TO allow the street to be
examined. The reporter has no hesitation in
saying that Captain Narshallfully understands
the business of grading streets and that he has
executed his work with thOrOughness. The
first thing Mr.. Marshall does is to lay solid
snd permanent foundation of stone, and every
one gifted with common sense can appreciate
the wisdom of the course of proceeding. The
foundation of stone having been laid, large
stones with all the intcrstiCcs filled with small
stones an inch of binding, or dirt, is then
spread over the stone, when the new
steam roller is run over 1t to press
the stones cOmpactly together. Upon this
is placed about six inches of large sized gravel
and on top OF them an inch of dirt or binding,
when the steam roller is run over IL again
Upon the top Ofthis is put small gravel from
which every particle Of dirt has been screened
or separated. GOliad street reminded the re-
porter of the fine m6cadamized roads, or turn
pixies, of Kentucky and Tennessee, and IL is
without doubt, one of the best streets in the
city. IL has been graded from Alamo street
to Santa Clara street.
Captain Marshal is pushing the work of
grading avenue ID, vigorously. He has some
where near 200 men in his employment at the
quarry-the gravel pit, and on the work on
avenue ID. When the grading of the streets
are executed thoroughly, as Captain Marshal
executes it., they will stand for years, only
needing occasional repairs on the surface.

THE COMEDY OF LOVE.

The Butchers Kiss and How 1t Was
Interrupted.
The scene laid in this domestic COM
edy, is at butchers store on Acequia
street, and the time about O'Clock this
morning.
Dulciana enters the store.
The butchers eye brightens and a
sweet smile Eliminates his face. He
comes around the counter, places his
arm lovingly around her waist, raises
her chin, and the faces approximate for
the osculatory.
A lady customer enters the store just
then, but the lovers are too busy to hear
her, and just as they are on the point OF
OSCILLATION, the lady customer calls out,
"here, | want some steak" Dulcians
blushed a poppy red, and rushes from
the store; the butchers face exhibits
enough fire to burn out the establish
ment, he blesses the lady backwards
and silently, and then proceeds to serve
her with that COMPOUNDED steak.
