The Runaway waif Returns to the Good
Shepherds Fold.

''Dovey" May Mcclure is once more
back at the House of the Good Shepherd.
This would not be considered an extraor-
binary statement were il not for the fact
that she LETT the institution by jumping
over the back yard fence several months
ago. and short time afterwards paper
called the Reformer came out with story
telling of the terrible time she had at the
institution aud casting reflection on an
institution that has always enjoyed the
confidence of the public.
The history OF "Dovey" May McGuire's
career before she was taken in by the
sisters has been told more than once, and
the many trials the sisters went
through on her account are a matter that
can be verified. The girl declared last
evening to a PosT-INTELLIGENcER reporter
that the story printed in the Reformer was
untrue from beginning to end; that she
was never asked indecent questions by
priests and that she was glad to be once
more with those who had done so much
for her in the past.

While the LIGHT has at all times
opened it's columns to communica-

jects, it does not necessarily follow
that we endorse the same. We are
disposed to give both sides a hear

own opinions, whether it be for or
against waterworks, sewers, street
Improvements, or what. The tax

they can read both sides and take

A FEW BASEBALL ITEMS.

A ball game will be played at
San Pedro Park next Sunday be-
tween the West Ends and another
local team.
Lou Whistler, we'll known to
San Antonio baseball cranks, hav-
ing played in the local team in 'SS,
will guard the initial bag for New
Orleans this season.
Some of the local teams would
find it to their advantage to call
on the merchants Of the town and
offer to advertise their place of
business provided the merchants
furnish the uniforms.
A trade league would prove a
success in San Antonio, as it has
elsewhere. There are merchants
in town that would be only too
glad to outfit a baseball team for
advertising purposes.
Billy c'Scrappy') Joyce, the old
Texas Lacquer, whose excellent
playing was often applauded at
the old Muth park, will captain
the Washington Senators. Sam
Wise has been released from that
team at his own request.
The LIGHT is in receipt Of copy
of Reach's Baseball Guide for 1894
1t contains complete code of
rules governing the game and also
the records of the various leagues
and associations of last year. 1t is
a useful book for baseball admirers
