THE CAMEL.
Most Picturesque Description of tho Most
Picturesque Mode of Motion.

Most Picturesque Description of tho Most
Picturesque Mode of Motion.
Miss Amelia B. Edwards wrote the
most appropriate description of that
almost indescribable method of iocomo-
ton known las camel-riding. 1t may
appeal to some of those more daring
spirits we have seen with looks of ILL
suppressed agony on their faces while
a camel plays cup and ball w \ their
nnresisting forms. This is it:
~The camel has his virtues, SO much
at least must be admitted, but they do
not lie on the surface. My Button tells
me, for instance, that he carries a wa
ter cistern in his stomach, which is
meritorious. But the cistern anchor
ates neither his gate nor his temper.
which are abominable. Irreproachable
as beast of burden, he is open
10 many. objections as a steed. 1t is
not pleasantto ride beast which not
only obJectsto being ridden, but which
cherishes strong personal antipathv
to the rider. You know he hates Won
from the moment you walk around
him, hesitating where and how TO be-
gin the ascent of his hump He does
nothesitate to tell you so in the round
est terms. He swears freely while YOU
arc, taking your seat, snarls if you but
move in the saddle, and stares anrrilv
around at you if you attempt to move
him it any direction save that in which
he himself intended to go. If you per-
Eist he tries to bite your feet. If
biting your doesn't answer, he
lies down. Now, the living
nown and getting up of a
ramel are performances designed ex-
pressly to inflict grievous bodily harm
upon the rider. Thrown twice forward
and twice backward, punched in his
wind and damaged in his spine. the
iuckless novice receives four distinct
Shocks, each more sudden and unex-
pected than the last. For this execra-
be hunchbacl> is fearfully and Won
uerfuliy made. He has a superffuous
Joint somewhere in his legs and uses it
TO revenge himself upon mankind.
His PAGES, however are more com.
plcated than his joints and more try
ing than his temper. He has, four-a
shot walk, like the rolling of small
boat In a chopping sea; a long walk.
which dislocates every bone in YOUR
body: trot that reduces YOU to inn
beciiity, and gallop that is sudden
death. Chicago Post.

round-trip rate, SO Is, which we quote, is
not As low a rate MS tbeSanta Fe have ad-
vocated, but the public viii! bear in mind
that it was through the insistance of the
Santa Fe management that this reduced
rate was made. In patroniziug the Santa
Fe you favor the line that is responsible
for this reduction in the rate. You also
favor yourself for the reason that it is the
oldest road, rock balasted and free from
the dust so annoying to travellers in the
dry season. You also save one half day

time every day in the week

MRS. HEARoN'S CARD

About the w. T. G. U. Police Matron.
To the Daily LIGHT:
Will you allow me space in your
paper to correct an impression,
which might have been made, by
your report on the 18th, of the ac-
ton taken by the "City Fathers"
on the petition fora Police Matron.
The Women's Christian Temper
ance Unions in San Antonio, on
hearing of the condition of, and
the tender care CD which the
women inmates receive in the Jail,
determined to plead with the "City
Fathers" that we be allowed to en-
deavOr to do something for them,
in the way of helping them to
better lives. We expressly stated
in our petition, that our work
would not be finished at the Jail,
but we would endeavor to
follow them, with kindly inter
est, to the places they called
home. We therefore, as w. G. Il.
Unions of San Antonio, enter our
protest to the report Of the City
| Marshal, that a Police MatrOn
is unnecessary as, "the inmates
are, as a rule, of a disreputable
kind, and could not be turned from
their evil ways of doing, in so short
a time as they are confined" and
beg leave to say, that we know
whereof we speak, when we say,
we have seen many saved from
such lives, by the work of pure
women. We look forward with
hope to the time when San Antonio
will "come to the 'front.'" and take
her stand with other great cities of
the north and west, in this, as in
other lines of work for the uplift-
ing of humanity.
