Street Rewarded.

Last night during the session of the
Lotus lodge, knights of Pythias, a
pleasant break occurred in the ordi-
nary routine business in which the
Chancellor Commander John II. Ham
Dleton arose and in a most appropriate
way presented Deputy Grand Master
J. +. w. Street, with very hand
some silver water set in recognition of
his kindness and special aIten ton III
organizing and instructing Lotus
lodge. Mr.. Street made a most APP
propriate reply and then the pleasant
ceremony was apparently at an end,
but not really so, for at the close OF
The meeting, a magnificent cold
luncheon and liberal supply
of beer appeared at the wave of Mr..
Streets magic wand, and a very good
time was enjoyed by all present.

Unreasonable Teachers,

A little girl attending the public
school on Lavacca street, who has
been ill for several days, yesterday
returned to school and was, of course,
behind in the progress of the class.
For this she was censured, ridiculeG,
and kept in. This girl is of most
sensitive nature, and therefore when
she returned home she was heart
broken. Ii seems to the LIGHT that
this treatment was unreasonable
and unjust, and that some instruc-
tons should be given to prevent a re-
petition of such conduct. 1t is how
ever, only fair to say that this con-
duct was not done with principal,
Miss Agnes COtton's knowledge or
consent. Miss Cotton is not only one
of the kindest, but one of the most eX-
pert teachers and would neither do,
nor sanction such injustice. 1t was
done by one Of the junior teachers
who should be cautioned to consider
the circumstances and feelings of her
pupils and their parents in a reason
able way.
