Commercial Suicide.

Mr.. George Weston gentleman who
Is connected with the high art printing
business Of New York, is journeying
through Texas, just to view the country.
In conversation with LIGHT man last
night. he said, 81 have seen some very
fine specimens OF the typographical art
in Texas, that cannot be excelled in the
northern or eastern states, and know
the prices are reasonable. l cannot I'M
derstand therefore, why some Of you
merchants will persist in sending orders
abroad, when they can get 1t done as
well and cheaply at home, except in the
case Of TYPOGRAPHY, which Of course San
Antonio has not now the facility of do
ing. Every dollar spent at home cir
culates among your people and will
come back to you, but when 1t is sent
away 1t enriches other cities at your ex-
pense. IL the printing fraternity and
others, were to send abroad for their
goods, as some Of your merchants and
bankers do for their printing, the mer-
chants and bankers would kick. 1t would
be just as justifiable, though IL would be
ruinous to the city. What is sauce for
the goose is sauce for the gander."

The Building Boom Continues, Notwith-
standing the Cry of Dull Times.
If any person supposes that things are
at stsndstill in San Antonio, and that
the spirit Of Improvement is dead and
buried, he will be cured Of such pessi-
mistic belief If he will walk or drive
through the city. Houses are going up
at every turn. The new opera-house, a
three-story building, is being pushed
ahead with wonderful energy. The
Smith and Elliott block will soon be fin
ished, and will 90 far towards wiping
out the memory Of the scenes of the old
Vaudeville theatre. Mic Tengg has re-
Gently moved into his new store, and
can now boast Of the finest, best
arranged and most commodious book
store In the state Of Texas. The Ma
tional bank building is approaching
completion. Dwelling houses are being
built in all portions Of the city. San An
tonic is quietly forging ahead. She does
not raise olatter and din about the i'm
provements that are In progress, and
cackle like pullet over her first egg, but
she pushes straight ahead. This Is the
right sort OF progress. The business de-
preston will ere long disappear and be
succeeded by activity. Population will
pour in, and transactions In real estate
will become brisk and lively. San An
tonic has brilliant future opening up
ahead Of 1t. "Allons-Allo should be
our watchword. Forward, is the watch
word, and "don't you forget it."

Jim Lovett and his Wife Raise the Neigh
borhood by a Family Quarrel


borhood by Family Quarrel.
Considerable alarm was created last
night in the neighborhood OF the High
school by the loud and continuous blow
ing Of a police whistle, and on the neigh
bOrs rushing out to see what was the
matter, they found that the whistle
was being blown by little boy named
Charlie Haskell, who said that colored
man was killing his wife, The LIGHT
peripatetio, In conjunction with other
neighbors, proceeded to the house indi-
Gated, a small structure formerly used as
q beer garden and situated at the north
west corner Of Acequia and Romano
streets, and which Is occupied by Jim
LOvett, colored man, employed at
Mathews Red Grocery, and the place
was In darkness, therefore none could
see what was going on, but IL was evil
dent by the hard cursing exchanged by
a man and woman, intermixed with
blows, tears and breakage OF household
goods, that there was serious trouble GO
ing on. The mounted police were tele-
phoned for, in the meantime a large
crowd assembled In front of the house,
and although sounds were heard, as of
the man choking the woman none of the
bystanders cared to interfere. Whilst
they condemned the fight, they had no
desire 10 stop an accidental bullet or to
make Intimate personal acquaintance
with razor. After considerable delay,
Mounted Officer Brown arrived and en-
tering the house, arrested both Lovett
and his wife. Neither OF them seemed
much the worse for their fight, although
some household furniture and orockery
appeared to have suffered. Lovett want
ed his shirt, which he said that he had
been trying to get from the "old wom-
an" and he got 1t, but 1t wasn't of much
use. for 1t was torn to shreads In the
struggle for possession. Then he want
ed his coat. About hslf hour was spent
seeking it, during which time the man
and wife dashed each other with their
tongues, but he couldn't find that coat
Then Brown took LOvett to get bond for
hin, and subsequently bond was obtain
ed for the woman.
The cause Of the quarrel was jealousy.
The wife says that he has been staying
away considerably from his bed and
board, and that he has recently become
intimate with fifteen year old colored
girl upon whom he is lavishIng his favors,
and she threatens to put hole through
both OF them, if they continue their love
business,

The Doctors Fun.

A little boy who Is the son OF a store
keeper on West Commerce street, came
to Kalteyer's drug store last night, and
asked DR.. r. l.. Graves to come right
away to see mis- father, who was dying
from the effects of chloroform, alleged to
have been administered by drug clerk.
DR.. r. l.. Graves went to see the man,
and soon found that he had only a
er-than-usual-attac k-of-a lco-
holism. An administration of strong
coffee, eased the man, and then the doc
tor left. On the way he called upon the
drug clerk, told him the man had died
from chloroform, and there was proof
that the poison had been sold by him.
After that drug clerk had set 'em up lib
orally his conscience was eased by
knowing the affair was huge joke upon
him, and then he retired to. indulge In
the proverbial self-kicking.

BLOOD ON THE MOON.
A Female spitfire Bursts Her Gall
Bladder

A woman with a coat of war paint an
inch thick and face as full Of wrinkles
as q bowl of cream that has been WELL
shaken and without the faintest trace
OF personal pulchritude, but fully armed
and equipped-that Is to say, with a
tongue hung upon hinges, and an I'M
limited supply OF billingsgate. that had
never been filtered nor diluted. sudden
ly dashed into the LIGHT office Yesterday
evening about 3 O'Clock, IN fury of ex-
ASPIRATION, favored with whisky, and
forthwith announced her intention to
raise the scalp OF one OF the reporters
and suck his hearts blood through
straw because he had inserted a six
line item about her.
We suppress her name out of respect
for the female sex for which we cherish
a high regard. She was angry from
the crown Of her bald-head to the soles
OF the number eight shoes which en-
cased her feet, and as chuck full Of cuss-
edness as one-eyed mule that has en-
joyed a months rSeess from work.
Quarreling is her strong card and bill
liDgsgate Is her mother tongue when
she Is in her best humOr, but yesterday
her furious passion broke down all en-
bankments and overlooked generally.
For few moments some of the boys in
the office fanCied that lot Of dynamite
had exploded and lifted Off the roof Of
the house, or that full-grOwn cyclone
had been turned loose, while the
devil" was sure Judgment day had
come. To be sure, things looked
brimful of wrath, fury and bill
lingsgate, is mot to be grinned at" nor
projected with a bit more than a buzz
saw when In motion. At length, the
particular reporter who had stirred up
her bile entered the room and the en-
ragged woman frothed, fumed, fosmed,
snorted, pitched, reared, oavorted and
boiled of at such rate as dearly fright
ened two brassy-faced newsboys into a
fit and caused the devil to scamper off as
fast as his legs could take him. The re-
porter admitted he had inserted the six
line item. Take my name out of your
paper" Missed the virago. alt is not in
the paper now" replied the reporter,
with an exasperating smile playing over
his face. You are liar" screamed
the virago, land II you were not such
dirty whelp OF spalpeen, | would
thrash you with my parasol." The re-
porter smiled down upon her in an exas-
perating way that added fuel to the
flame OF her wrath, and she raised her
parasol and rushed upon him to strike
him. and would have struck him had he
not dexterously grasped the parasol and
held 1t. The scene beggars all human
powers of description. The virago could
not strike with her parasol, but she
could use her tongue, and she used it for
all 1t was worth in pouring forth q tor
rent Of billingsgate. AS mud singer
an angry woman beats all creation. The
reporter finally went out on the street
and the virago soon after left, and peace
and order came back.

The Madison Square Church Com
mittee Seek the Aid of Our Citizens.
A meeting was held yesterday at the
Madison Square church to take into con-
siderstion the question of repairing the
damage done TO the church by the re-
cent storm. The Rev. DIR. Scudder. pas
tor, presided and Mr.. w. b. Seley acted
as secretary, when the following rtso-
lutiOns were unanimously passed:
Whereas, The destructive storm that
visited our city on the 18th instant, dam
aged and destroyed our church property
to the extent of rendering it wholly I'M
safe for occupancy.
Resolved. That we hereby authorize
the trustees of the church to take imme-
diate steps towards rebuilding the brOk-
endOwn walls, and making such repairs
as shall be found necessary.
Resolved, That we pledge ourselves
to aid with our means and otherwise TO
the extent Of our ability, to the end that
our temple of worship may once more
put on her beautiful garment, and thus
afford the members of this congregation
a suitable place in which to worship.
Resolved, further, That the good
people Of this city be appealed to with
out regard to creed, to aid US in recon-
structing this beautiful temple; while 1t
was built as an honor to the Most High,
was at the same time an ornamentation
to the city, and to this end that a CON-
mittee Of ladies and gentlemen be APP
pointed to solicit subscriptions from our
liberal-minded citizens In behalf Of the
good work.
The pastor then named the committee
as follows:
Rev. DR.. Scudder, Major d. N. Bash,
Mr.. G. Wilgus, DR.. Grabill, Mrs. Cen
eral Stanley, Mrs. W. J. Young, Mrs. II.
II. McLane, Mrs. A. g. Schryver, Miss
Breckenridge, Miss Matthews, Miss Hat
tie Scudder.
The LIGHT bespeaks for the movement
liberal support. The church was q
handsome structure, an ornament to
our city, and, what is more, it has done
good work In the past and will even do
better work In the future.

Faith Without Works.

As tomorrow is Sunday, and the pro-
fessors of religion will be in their pews
in the church with piety written on their
faces, the reporter would suggest that
each one of them ask what good deed he
or she Inexperienced since the previous
Sunday. Have they helped those in
need? Have they given charity to the
poor? Visited the sick? Shown COM
passion to the widow and the fatherless?
Faith without works is dead" nor can
the church carry men to heaven.

The Two Sans to be Asked to Resig


CINCINNATI, Aug. 23.-It was an
street parade, which was printed yes
terday for the first time. that Sam Jones

in sermon at Urbania, o.:
1.-THE Germans are trying to take this
country, and the question for you people
to settle is shall we turn this country
over to the devil, the Dutch and the Dun
cows Hope the day will come when
we preachers will take hold of these
things and thunder them from the pull
pit like hell-fire."
The hubbub among the Germans Is SO
great the two Sans will be Topped of
the programme.
