LARGE NEW QUARTERS.
The Furniture and Carpet Depart
ments OIL. WOlfson Soon

ments OIL. WOlfson Soon
Occupy New Stores.
The citizen of San Antonio recollect
reading in the real estate transfers OF
the purchase by L. Wolfson of the
large stores formerly occupied by A.
Staacke, on SoleGad and Acequia
streets. The property was purchased
from Mr.. Garlic of D'Hanis, Tex, and
was necessity to Mr.. Wolfson in
order to have sufficient room to carry
on his furniture and carpet depart
ments. On May Is, having been
placed in possession of his property,
Mr.. Wolfson set about remodelling
the same, and the two stores are now
transformed into large and improved
branches of the main store. The
furniture department will occupy the
large store, which has a frontage of
80 feet on Soledad runs back l64 feet
to Acequia. The carpet department
adjoins it on the south, connecting
with the main building, and is "a by
so feet. By this addition to his pro-
perty, Mr.. Wolfson now has every
department Of his immense establish
ment on the grownd floor, and makes
it the largest dry goods, clothing and
furniture house in the South. A
ping at WOlfsOn's is gained in the
fact that customers living on the
avenue G. line can enter the house
from the Soledad street entrance,
buy their furniture, carpets, etc.,
and then continue on through to the
dry goods department, when having
purchased every thing they desire
can return and wait at the Soledad
street entrance for car. This pur-
chase also places Mr.. Wolfson's house
within few steps of all the street
car lines, and will be a great improve
ment in the arrangement of the
stores. In about ten days the public
will have the pleasure of
going through the grandest fur
niture and carpet store in the
South. Mr.. Wolfson entered the flu
ture business ten years ago and
several times since then he has been
compelled to make additions to his
store in order to accommodate his large
and increasing trade, this last ad-
ditiOns being an absolute necessity.
And yet with ali the space acquired
by him, he informs us that he will
occupy his new quarters only tempo
rary, when a fine structure three
stores with cellers will be built on
the site, in which he intends to have
furniture and carpet store, one of
the largest in the south and west.
The LIGHT feels it pleasure to note
the success of such an enterprizing
and liberal house as L. Wolfson, and
and feel sure that the public will
appreciate in no small degree the
desire of Mr.. Wolfson to build an
establishment a credit to any city in
the country. Due notice will be
given of the opening of the new
stores.
The Misses BOthman, who have for
some time been visiting friends in the city
have returned home to Galveston.

Of horses and mules which work all

by the farmers, usually at 81 per week.
They are fed nothing but straw, corn.
stalks and hay. They are turned

ricks, being put up At night aud fed
in the stables II they are free from
disease they always gain on this kind
Of food. and in the spring the fever is
out Of them AMI they feel the good
