The great wings and beautiful par
Tors OF the San Antonio club last
night, glittered with the beauty and
costliness Of San Antonio society
that had assembled to attend the first
reception of the season given by the
club.
The music was splendid and the
toilets were superb, which with the
exertions of the house committee to
entertain the guests, helped make
this excellent reception the most 30
cial and most brilliant affair known in
the annals of the social events of the
San Antonio club.
The pleasant event. which was we'll
attended and highly appreciated, will
long linger in the memory of the
merry participants as one of the
greatest social nights it was ever
their happy lot to spend.

A Dangerous Crossing

The electric street car crossing at
the West Commerce I. & c. n. cross
log will likely prove the:scene of an
ugly accident some night At this
point there is continual moving and
passing of trains and locomotives, but
a watchman is on hand to signal
when the crossing is clear and, thus
avoid accidents.
After dark, however, the Waterman
retires and as the railroad company
has no night Waterman at the place,
the street cars run the risk of collid-
ing with some unnOticed engine or
train of cars.
1t has been suggested that as there
is considerable switching done dur
ing the night and as the street cars
are well patronized at nights by the
people living on and beyond Prospect
Hill, the street car company and rail-
way cooperation should reach some
agreement as to placing a night
Waterman at this important point.

The Dark Spot IN Our Government

The Dark Spot IN Our Government
Andrew d. White in the Forum.
Without the slightest exaggeration
we may assert that, with very few
exceptions, the city governments of
the United States are the worst In
Christendom-the most expensive,
the most inefficient and the most
corrupt.
Among our greater municipalities,
we naturally look first at New YORK
and Philadelphia Both are admir-
ably situated; each stands on rising
ground with water on both sides;
each is happy in position, in climate,
in all the advantages to be
desired by great metropolis.
In each, what is done by
individuals Is generally we'll and
sumetimes splendidly done; and in
each, what is done by the corporate
authorities in matters the most es-
sen tial to q proper city government
is either wretchedly done or left
utterly undone. Everywhere are
wretched whlrves, foul docks, inaGe
Quate streets, and inefficient systems
OF sewerage, paving and lighting.
Pavements which were fairly good t
the beginning have been taken up
and replaced with utter carelessness.
and have been prematurely worn OIt
or ruined. Obstacles of all sorts are
allowed; tangled networks of
wires frequently exist in such
masses overhead as to proven t
access to buildings In case of fire, and
almost to cut off the rays OF the sun.
Here and there corporations or pri-
waite persons have been allowed to
use The str els in such manner as o
ruin them for the general public. In
wet weather many of the most I'M
portant thOrOughtares are covered
with reeking mud! in dry weather
this mud, reduced TO an impaIp pa BILE
dust containing the~germs OF almost
every disease. is blown into the
houses and into the nOstrils of the
citizens. But this is not the worst
feature; the city halls of these larger
towns are the acknowledged centers
Of the vilest corruption.

That East End addition is at this time
attracting considerable attention. Why?
because it is nearer Alamo plaza than any
other addition. Because being east of the
city on high ground, it gets the fine
south east wind with all its health giving
power, and because lots are being sold on
easy terms, and away down cheap. 1t
