LOVE LETTER.
How a Young Man Got Square With
His Best Girl.

The following was found on
River avenue, the original of which
the owner can have by calling at
the LIGHT office. 1t was written
by a popular young man to his
best girl, on a tastefully decorated
sheet of writing paper. All names
r withheld. The letter is dated
"San Antonio, July y, 1885," and is
as follows:
"DO you remember what you
said to me last Sunday night? You
told me you would be true to me,
and was you? The way you done
last night on Alamo plaza and
what you said to me, was that true
love. You painted me black Sun
day evening, that is to say you
was cold to me. You did not wish
to go out with me because | had no
buggy. That is treating man cold

1t will be seen that good punCtu-
alton is used and that it is a nice
letter, but lovers should be more
careful with their communications

THEY WE'RE NOT GENTLEMEN.
How Some Stranger Dudes Treated
Ladies on the Alamo Plaza.

How Some Stranger Dudes Treated
Ladies on the Alamo Plaza.
Last evening just before the
band began to play, three ladies
and a child were promnading the
walks of the garden of Alamo
plaza. One Of the ladies was an
invalid and wanted to rest. They
tried to get a seat but all were oc-
cupied and some by young men.
They asked Policeman Hill II he
could find them a seat especially
for their sick friend. "Certalnly
madam" and he went in search of
it, the party following. He came
arcoss a seat occupied by
some young dudes and he
| civilly said, "Excuse me gentle
men, but would you kindly accom-
modate these ladies with a seat?"
One looked around and said, "why
| should we give up u seats"'
"Why," said the officer, "they are
ladies, and one is sick, and gentle
men always extend that courtesy"
"Oh, indeed" said the dude, "well
we are not gentlemen and all
kept their seats. 81 see you're not"
CURLY responded the officer, and,
passed on to where some San An
J tonic boys were sitting, who, on
| the request being made, got up,
saluted the ladies courteously, and
gladly yielded their seats.
The ladies were visitors, and as
the officer does not know the I'M
gallant snobs, it is supposed that,
to the honor of San Antonio's
chivalry, they are not San Antoni-
ans. Our people, like those of any
other city and nation, have
their faults, but, thank God! dis
courtesy and disrespect to ladies is
not among them.
Officer Hill was so indignant at
these snobbish dudes that had he
not been a peace officer it is more
than possible that he would have
given them a forcible lesson in
gallantry.

Obituary.

Mr.. Antonio Caro-, aged 3years,
a native of New Orleans, died very
suddenly early last Saturday night
at the residence of his sonin-law,
Mr.. Chas. Iusted. Deceased was
setting in his chair, apparently in
good health, when all of sudden
he was stricken with heart disease,
and, in few moments expired in
the arms of his daughter. Mr.. Caro-
had long been resident of Lafa-
yette, and was we'll and favorably
known as a man of sterling charac-
ter-afable, honest, charitable.
His mortal remains were conveyed
to the Catholic church where the
imposing services Of the last sad
rites of the church were held. The
funeral cortege was one Of the larg-
est seen in Lafayette for years, and
was a testimonial of the high esteem
held for him. The Gazette begs to
tender its most sincere condolences
to the bereaved family.

Delightful Picnic.

Tuesday last the chiidten, parents,
and friends of the public schools
under the respective charge of Pro-
fessors Meaux and Martin joined
hands and gave most delig htful
picnic in the woods back of Mr..
Joachim Revivillon's plantation.
There were fully 400 persons present
and look on the scene was suffi :
cient to assure one that the party
were having fine time. The chill
dren Of both schools, though I'M
prepared, gave Rotations that were
we'll delivered, and appreciatively
applauded. Hon. Julian Mouton
the indefatigable President of the
Board of School Directors delivered
one of his instructive and interesting
talks on education, a subject which
he is we'll versed upon. The pro-
fessors and parents are to be con-
graduated on the evident interest
they are taking in the prosperity of
their schools and with such feelings
it will not be long before great
benefits are felt.

stantly killed, the wheels passing
over his body and nearly severing it.
McHam was about 20 years OF

4 Mr.. Smith living in the neigh

The Gazette job office has been
so crowded with work for the past
two weeks that we were compelled
to somewhat neglect the paper.
Many items were forced out, espe-
cially a couple of communications.
Some interesting items that were
sent to this office by kind friends
were also left out in the rush. We
trust our friends will continue to
send US items, and as We have about
cleared up the job work, we will be
able to devote more time to the
paper, and we wish, also, to inform
our friends that we are at all times
prepared to handle their job work,
and will always, as heretofore,
deliver same on time agreed. We
trust they will continue to favor us,
and we will do our best to give
them satisfaction, both as to price
and quality of work.
