PUBLIC WORKS.
Several Matters Investigated Yes
terday Afternoon.

Several Matters Investigated Yes
terday Afternoon.
The Board of Public Works took it's
tour of inspection yesterday and visited
a number Of places where the property
owners desire to make Improvements.
In response to request from ex-Gov-
ernor Downey, who desired to have a
stairway cut into the basement of his
block, the board visited the premises.
This entrance. if made, would &C.
cupy large part of the sidewalk, and
the board decided to recommend that
the petition be denied, especially as it
was evident that an entrance could be
obtained in another manner. Some of
the property owners on Jackson street
desired it widened from ten to thirty
feet where it opens into Los Angeles
street. The street is thirty feet wide
up 70 within $50 feet of Los Angeles
street, and there it narrows down to ten
feet. The board thought it would be we'll
to widen it if the property owners will
agree to pay for the land taken, which is
held at 81 600 per front foot.
Turner street has been sidewalked and
curbed with the exception of a small
portion in front Of four lots. The people
desire this attended to, and the board
will recommend that it be done.
Macy street, from Alameda street to
the river, is no. Of uniform width, and
the people who live there think that it
should be opened throughout. The board
will take action in this matter today.
The vacant lot to the north of the City
Hall, which at some future time is to be
arranged as a park. has no sidewalk in
front of it on Fort street. The board will
recommend that the Superintendent of
Streets do the work at once, for when
the rains come on this place will be
almost impossible.
Ash street ends at Chavez street, and
the property owners think it should go
to New Main. The board will instruct
the City Engineer to see if the street
should not run through.
The asphalt pavement on Main street,
between First and Third streets, is in
very bad condition. In some places the
cement foundation is entirely uncovered,
and in other places the asphalt has
punched up 30 as to make driving I'M
pleasant. The contractors guaranteed
to keep this pavement in good order for
five years, and as the time is not yet ex-
PRED by about three years, the board
will call upon them to make the repairs
Immediately. The bituminous lime
rock pavement south of Third street,
which was put in at the same time, is in
excellent condition.
The board will recommend that the
grading of Hill street be not accepted
until deed to a two-foot strip on each
side of the street south of Pico street be
given to the city.
There will be quantity of business
before the board at it's meeting today.

Killed by the Kick of a Horse.
The night before last a man named
Beville, working in corral in the city,
was passing behind the stalls where the
horses are kept. He laid his hand on
one of the animals, which so startled the
horse that he kicked the man in the
groin, indicting very severe injuries. The
man was taken to his room at No. 120
South Bunker Hill avenue, where he
expired early yesterday morning.
In passing behind horses it is very
essential to speak to them, so as to assure
them everything is all right. A sudden
touch without speaking nearly always
provokes kick.

The Smallest Book.

The SMALLEST BOOK.
The London Pail Mall Gazette
thinks that the smallest book In the
world is q volume now In the Stafford
Royal Borough library and museum.
1t says: "The work in question
which differs from the rest in the es-
sential point that while, like them, de
jure book, it is also de facto a man
uscript- consists of one hundred
leaves of the finest rice paper, Octa-
gonal in shape, and measuring from
side to side one-halfinch, stitched to-
gether and covered in silk. Nothing
can exceed the lightness, delicacy
and softness of the material, or the
neatness of the penmanship. This
dainty little morsel of c,.ligraphy,
which at the first glance precisely re-
sembles, in Its gloss prison, very
tiny butterfly of some uncommon
kind, is very probably unique in the
western world How it escaped inn
minent destruction is not the least
wonderful feature of it's history, for it
was looted at Ghanzi in India, by a
private soldier during the mutiny, but
1t has been safe in the possession of
the Stafford library for many years.
The work has not been translated,
but is officially defined, on the author
ity OF an Indian scholar. to be an ex-
ample of the 'Kathas, or Sacred Reel
tations of (the) Mahrattas Brahmans,'
and it is written, without blot or al
teration, in the Mahrattas character,
in glossy black ink, with a brilliant
margin of vermillion to every page,
which is also numbered. Possibly
the acme of biblical minuteness is
reached in this beautiful little work
of art, which for the present, at any
rate, may claim to be the smallest
book, as we'll as the least collective
in the world.'n

THE mail advices from Brazil show
that the republicans had prepared
most carefully for the revolution, that
the men of war were disposed of so as
to admit of no interference and that
there was nothing but submission in
the case, as resistance was out OF the
question. The test of the order will
come with the elections. If the re-
publicans are supported there and the
imperialists are left in the soup as
was Boulanger the republic will soon
be tranquilized and government made
stable.
THE street offal and manure heaps
piled against the curbing on the west
side of Alamo plaza would much bet
ter become the back yard of a livery
stable than the show plaza of city
of the size of San Antonio. The COM
ments made upon that plaza last Sat
urday by some gentlemen who were
surveying the barnyard adornments
of the plaza, were not at all creditable
to the administration. The LIGHT
was appealed to and requested to call
atten ton to the filthy condition of
things, but it is of no use, as past pre-
sen tations have failed of any good
effect. A few hours work would make
all the difference between an insight
ly hot bed of all noxious smells and a
clean plaza which would be a credit
to the city, but the few hours work
is not done. Alamo plaza and Com
MERGE street should be swept daily,
the street refuse carted away and no
sprinkling done on the wooden pave
ments, but it Is safe to say it will not
be done until there is a change in the
municipal administration.
