Editor San Antonio Light.
Your erratic correspondent, "Blunt,"
dishes up another criticism on the Mayor
and CitV Council and what he facetious-
ly terms that little printing job" and
like all writers who wish to appear wise,
commences by calling my last article
SILLY" However, he will see that [

controversy before | am done with him,
and | will say that he can be as personal
as he likes. know him and do
not fear his keen (?) shafts
OF sarcasm. Since he considers
the sewer proposition dead as
Caesar; and as | do also. though for
different reasons as before stated, the
water question" being the main one,
| will pass that part of his TRADE and
proceed to the criticisms on the Mayor
and Council. He seems to think that
these officers are not the peers OF the
people who elected them, and that 1t Is

that it does reflect directly on the peo-
pie for eleCting these same officers.

by allowing the Mayor to give the print

Letter From Mr.. wilkins.
Editor San Antonio Light

Editor San Antonio Light.
There appearing from time to time
articles in your paper, which are detri-
mental to me, have resolve to. answer,
in order to set my self right before the
eyes Of the people and show them that
am doing my duty.
lst 1t is claimed that the water in the
ditch is at present nearly one foot lower
than it was two months ago.
This Is easily accounted for. There
was over one foot of mud taken out of
the ditch when it was cleaned, and the
water is to-day as deep as it was then
and the only reason 1t does not reach
the old mark is because it is one foot
deeper now. beg further to state that
there is enough water for irrigation pur-
poses in the ditch, and | have never
heard a word Of complaint from the peO-
pie who buy water and pay for 1t.
End. II is said lock down the water
gate and keep keys to same in my
pocket. This is deliberate falsehood.
The keys are always to be found at the
San Pedro Springs, as have never car
ried them, and the gates are locked up
and not down, as stated.

to handle none but good ard honest goods,
our extensive advantage in buying and Sc
lecting them enables us to sell at lower
figures than inferior goods generally are
sold. Our Clothing is made to wear and
give satisfaction, fiji and material being the
best. and styles and pattern selected to
crafty the most fastidious taste.
Our Mems Suits at $40 to $40 are mar
wells OF beauty, and compare favorably
with the most expensive made to order
Our So Boys School Suits are as good rs
ever, and calculated to gladden. the parents
as well as the boys themselves.
In Hats, Shoes, Hosiery, Neck wear and
everything belonging to this department
we are equally prepared to give satisfac-
ton, and extend hearty invitation to our
friends and customers near and far.

Then, in poor Edith's weakness and
sickness, the long pent grief came out.

cry.
"Why, what is the matter?" said her
mother, wonderingly.
'Bessic told me something that
wasn't true, mamma, she did! dom t

sic, any more. can't help 1t. :"
''What did she tell you?''
''She-said-that her great-grand-
father--was-ma in big silver
spoon she's got. Oh. dearr'

''Yes, she said so, and it couldn't be
true. He could not have been married
in silver spoon, you know he couldn't
have, mamma. She sad over and
over that he was. Oh, would rather
it had been me that told a lie than
Bessier
''Now don't fret any more, dear, :"
said her mother, soothingly. 81 think
we shall find there was some mistake
about it. "
Mrs. Amos went directly over to the
Elliot's to Investigate. When she re-
turned, Bessie was with her. Bessie S
eyes were red, and she ran straight in
to Edith's room.
''Oh. Edith" she cried out, 'I'm so
sorry! | didn't really know what the
trouble was. L thought you were
showing out for nothing. l didn't
know you thought wasn't telling the
truth, and trying to make you believe a
lie. l did tell the truth, Edith, after
all. My great-grandfather was mar
ried in that silver spoon, and I'll tell
you how right off. That silver spoon
was made out of his SLIDER kraee-buckleS.
Don't you see now? He was married

Edith's poor little notified face
changed, and she begun to laugh.
''Im sorry, Bessie; was real silly"
said she
''No, you weren't silly one bit,
Edith. See here, I'm going to make you
apromise: I'll never tease you again, as

ga box, box for Reeve and Marciar
exclaimed papa, as he opened the mail
from the North. ''And all the way
from Chicago, too, and from Aunt
Emma do believe.
When the box was opened, there, in
nest of soft white cotton, lay two
large eggs, ornamented in beautiful
colors. And, wonderful to tell, these
eggs had covers which, when lifted up,
showed them to be full of sugar plums.
But these lovely boxes were very frail
and, in their long, rough journey, one
of the covers was badly crushed.
"Sister can have that; I'll have the
good one" said the little boy at once.
He was looked at with surprise, for
he had always seemed a generous little
fellow.
my DEAR" asked mamma, would
you do so selfish, so unmanly thing
as that? Go away, and think about
it,"
81 don't wish to think about it.
don't wish to think about it, he re-
piled, excitedly, 81 want the good one"
After that no more was said. He
began to walk about the room, his face
was flushed, and he looked very I'M
happy. If he CHANGED to come near
papa, papa did not seem to see him,
he was so busy reading his newspaper.
After walking awhile he went to the
other side of the room where mamma
was bathing and dressing his little
sister. He was very foud of his
mamma. When she was sometimes
obliged to punish him, as soon as it
was over he would say:
"Wipe my tears kiss mel"
So now, when his dear mamma did
not seem to see that she had a little
boy any more, he was cut to the
heart.
At last he went into grandma s
room. Now, he and grandma were
great friends. Many happy hours did
he spend in her lap, hearing stories;
and she called him her "blessed boy"
But now, alas! she was so busy with
her knitting that she took no notice of
him whatever. This was dreadful!
He climbed up chair and sat down.
An evil spirit seemed to whisper:
don't give up;' and so he began
again his miserable walk. For nearly
one hour did this little boy fight his
terrible battle with selfshness, until, at
last, he could stand it no longer. He
came to his mamma, and said, in a
pleasant voice:
Il will take the broken one; sister
can have the Derfect one -
"Then, when papa and mamma had
kissed him, and he had rushed into
grandma's loving arms, what load of
unhappiness was lifted from his heart.
