Bristling with Business-Bride-

LAREDO, July l6, 1889
/ Editor LIGHT
The damage to the International
| bridge is not so bad as was anticipa-
ted, and it is said that after the re-
pairs now being made are completed
it will be in better condition than ev-
er.
Mr.. Ed Buckley formerly of LaSalle
county has located in Laredo and will
| engage in the commission business.
Bernardino Gonzales who is charg-
| ed with the murder of Alexandra vi
| daurni in Zapata county, and who
has several times been refused bond
| was yesterday liberated, the amount
of bond being fixed at $4,000.
The mills of the Gods grind slowly,
but the grand jury is sitting things
very neduring the present term of
court.
The criminal docket will be called
on July 22nd.
The Recorder played a star engage
ment to a round dozen violaters of the
law Monday morning, nearly all of
whom are now doing penance for their
misdeeds.
Tracklaying on the street railway
goes bravely on and by tomorrow
track will have reached the Arroyo
Zacate bridge.
Next month will be a hummer in
the history of Laredo. Everybody
wants to stand from under, because
Laredo and her citizens are bubbling
over with schemes to make this the
greatest city in Southwest Texas.
Mr.. John II. Mutually, president of
the Abstract Co., has returned from
San Antonio, and is to be found in his
pleasant and commodious office OH the
Jarvis plaza.
Mr.. Alex. Al puente, who has been
in Corpus Christi for some time, is
again shaking hands with his Laredo
friends.
Several big deals in dirt are reported
in the last few days I'm the Eas ern
Division. 1t seems to be the proper
thing that whenever bride and
groom strike the city for them to pur-
chase a block or several blocks of
Laredo property. That's the kind we
want; those who come to stay.
Mr.. b. F. Cabb, the genialslumber |
rustler of Lutcher d Moore, of Orange,
TEXAS, and who is making his head
q darters in Laredo for the present, |
departed to-day for Monterey.
There is considerable talk on the |
streets as to whether Judge Russell |
VIII exercise his authority in regard |
to the city and county office holders
in Starr county. A few weeks since |
he removed all who could not speak, |
read and write the English language |
and appointed Americans to fill the
vacancies. Just when the axe will |
fall here is now the subject of a good |
ly amount of speculation and the |
cause of we'll grounded anxiety on the
part of not a few.

What do we want with the prunes
and prism girls?
Let the little ones romp. Children
boys and girls-must have exercise to
keep them healthy. Deprive them of
it, and they Will fade away like flowers
without sunshine.
Running, racing, skipping, climbing
these are the things thar strengthen the
muscles, expand the chest and build up
the nerves.
The mi d dose of exercise taken in the
nursery with calisthenics or gymnas-
tics will NOT invigorato the system like
u good rpmp In the open air.
Mothers, therefore, who counsel their
little girls toplay very quietly, make u
great miktalSe. Better the laughing,
rosy checked romping girl than the
pale, lily faced one who is called every
inch lady.
The latter very rarely breaks things,
or tears her dresses, OF tires her moth
er's patience as the former does; but, af-
ter all, what does the tearing and break
ing amount to?
1t is not wise policy to put a. old
head on young shoulders. Childhood
is the t me for childish pranks and
play.
The girls will grow into womanhood
soon enough. Let them be children as
long aS they can. Give them
plenty o fresh air and sunlight, and
let them run and rOmp as much as they
please.
BY all means give us hearty, healthy,
rompiug girls rather than pale-faced
little ladies', condemned from their very
cradles 10 nervousness, headache, and
similar ailments.

Episcopal Services For Lent.

Bishop Coleman, of the Diocese OF Del
aware, has issued the following cemmen-
dation TO the laity of the church in this
city concerning the scheme for united
lenten services In the various city churches
during Lent:
"To the Laity of Wilmington: l beg
most earnestly to commend to your at.
tention the scheme OF united lenten SER
vices as agreed upon at meeting OF the
city clergy.
"Whlle the fervent prayer of every one
is efiectnal, there can be no doubt as to
the special favor with which our Heav-
emily Father hears the united suppllca-
tions of His people.
1--WE all ought to be most anxious to
obtain His blessings for the Church at
large, our own diocese, its several par
ishes, and our individual souls.
''The season of Lent is particularly
appropriate time for gaining all this ad p
vantage. therefore hope that, In addi-
tion TO your attendance upon the regular
services of your parishes, you will go, and
get Others to go, to the special ones as
announced.
"a determination on your part not to
lose one of these opportunities may de-
mand extraordinary effort, but the blessed
influence upon the city and diocese OF
such an exhibition of devout concord will
be more than recompense for what 1t
may cost.
"The experiment was tried last year
with encouraging results. With greater
effort this year we may confidently an
ticipaie larger results.
"IDvoking in your behalf the special
benedlctlon of the God of all grace, aud
asking your constant remembrance of me
In your prayers,
al am your affectloDate friend and

drew crowded house last evening at the
Opera House. The play Is OF the roliok-
Ing, musical, comedy order, put together
by ii. Grstten Donnelly, q Philadelphia
journalist. The company consists oftwelve
people, eight fair-looking damsels and
four OF the sterner sex The piece has
plot running through 1t which tends to
add little to Its absurdity. Miss Hilda
Thomas, as Rose Seed, appears to be
iavorite with the audience, as her very
appearance brought forth a hearty ap-
plause. She has a good voice and an
easy stage manner. Hallen and Hart
filled the bill In their particular line.
They are very clever young comedians,
and their mske-up immense as two young

Dyllyn, w. P. Guiberson, Miss George

WAsnINGToN, Feb. %. The bill con-
cerning the Alaska seal fisheries was
pasted without opposition in the House
to-day and In way that will not please
Secretary Bayard. An amendment was
offered ty Mr.. Dunn and adopted making
still stronger the ceneure OF the present
Administration for lis course in failing to
protect the Behring Sea fisheries This
amehdUent directs The President to send
revenue cutters to Behring Sea and seize
all vessels taking seals without authority
of law.
Mr.. Dunn said that the failure OF the
present Administration to do this had
led to the fitting out of 100 vessels tO
engage In these marauding expeditions
