GRAFTON

San Antonio is the musical CEN
ter Of the state and of several of
the adjoining ones as we'll. The
day is at hand when musical con-
servatories will be established here
and that musical education now
sought for IN other centers will be
secured here. All that is needed
is to consolidate the forces and
unitedly put them to work.

THE SUNDAY LIGHT.


the publication of a Sunday Morn
Ing paper. This departure has
been under consideration for some
time, as many of the advertisers of
the LIGHT have assured its man.
agement that they would literally
patronize a Sunday Morning issue.
How far this assurance will be met
in actual advertising patronage re-
mains to be seen. The new fast
press which has just been set
up, together with other improve
ments of considerable value, will
enable the LIGHT to meet all the
demands that will be made upon
1t for some time to come, and it is
now in position to test the busi-
ness value of the promises that
have been so literally made as to
the patronage that will be extend
ed to Sunday Morning LIGHT. II
the business men of this city and
the general public want that Sun
day issue they can have it by max
ing it to the interest OF the LIGHT
Publishing Company to THRUSH it.
1t is a matter of business, pure aud
simple. AS in the past, so in tina
future, the LIGHT will redeem all
OF its promises, but it is making
none at present. There will be no
blanket sheet issued, no claim
of Suggest paper" made, butt
Improvement will follow JUST
as fast as the patronage
iustifies. The amount of telegraph
news published liz the impediate
present will nots be volEhminous,
but it will be fresh. Nd attempt
will be made to corral stale society
news or ape any special feature OF
some other Sunday paper, but the
local field Will be covered and
much fresh, original matter given
to- the readers OF that number.
There will be no additional charge to
the regular LIGHT subscribers, who
will receive seven papers a week
instead of six. and as conse.
quence the additional expense
must fall upon. the Increased adj
vertising. II the citizens OF this
city want a Sunday LIGHT and
will manifest their wishes by
supportingsit the LIGHT will do its
best to merit that support
by giving them good, readable,
fresh paper. II it is not want
ed, and lack of patronage is
the real test OF this, then the Sun
day morning paper will be dropped
for the LIGHT has no money to
squander in a losing. experiment.
In any case it will continue to live
within its means and give to its
patrons the best possible return
for the money that they invest in
its columns,,but whether that shall
or shall not include a Sunday
morning issue is.just what is to be
determined in the near future.
Willing to take the promises of its
patrons on trust until the question
OF support is demonstrated one
way or another the, LIGHT makes
its appearance for a while at least
as a SUNDAY MORNING PAPER.

No CARS ON THE BRIDGE.-The
crossing of the Potomac by means OF
the Aqueduct bridge for an electric
railway is postponed for another year
at least, because the measure OF the
District of Columbia Commissioners,
inserted this year in the appropriation
bill, was stricken out by the Senate
committee. There were several rail
roads ready to cross on the bridge at
the terms offered by the commission
ers, of one per cent. per passenger eacn
way. These roads were anxious to
cross over and secure an entrance to
the union depot. according to pre-
arranged plan, but the action of the
Senate committee has killed this. The
only thing that can be done is TO have
special bill covering this subject.
which is very unlikely on account OF
The lateness of the session, and Will
have to be left over until the new Con-
gress convenes.

DEATH OF Mrs. CREIGHToN.-Mrs.

7. Creighton, died at her residence on
upper King street, at half-past eight
o'clock this morning. She was seventy
nine years old, and was one of the old

had been in feeble health for some
time, but became alarmingly i'll on
Sunday, since which time her condi-
ton grew worse until this morning
when the end came. Mrs. Creighton
was lady Of many amiable qualities
and she enjoyed the esteem of all who
knew her. She was sister of Mr.. Jas.

SOUTH CAROLINA POLITICS.-It ap-
pears that there is wide split among
the leaders of the reform or dominant
faction of the South Carolina demo
cratic party. 1t appears that an ar
rangement was recently made by Sem
ator-elect Tillman and Governor Evans
with committee representing the con-
servative or minority faction of the
democratic party by which those two
members of the triumvirate leading the
reform faction agreed to give the con-
servatives half of the membership in the
constitutional convention, to meet next
summer, provided they agreed to GER
tain general lines of policy for the
making of the new construction. Last
night Senator Irby gave out letter in
which he denounced the deal. In his
letter Mr.. Irby recalls his services in
leading the reform faction to success
at time when Tillman openly retired
from politics because he thought the
strife with the conservatives too un-
equal. He claims that but for his work
ia shelving the other reform can
didates for Governor last summer
Evans would never have gotten
that office. He denounces a COM
biue or compromise with the con-
servatives as a surrender of all the re-
formers have fought for, and favors
straight fight between the two factions,
even if the conservative faction COM
bines with the negroes, who are willing
to vote for them provided they guaran-
tee them against disfranchisement,
which is the object the reformers had
in view when they secured the calling
of the constitutional convention.

cided in favor of Mr.. Burroughs by
Judge Chichester of the County Court
of Fairfax. The Judge held that LIST,
the supervisors had no right to enter

record that the supervisors had ordered

THE FIRST REGIMENTS TROUBLES.

THE FIRST REGIMENTS TROUBLES.
Six officers in the First Regiment have
resigned, or will do so. All of these belong
to the faction opposed to Colonel Jones. Capt.
C. Gray Possieux and Lieutenant Jeter, of
Company A, have sent in their designations,
and Lieutenant ]. P Davis, of Company E,
will follow their example. Captain Bossieu1' S
resignation was forwarded yesterday. His
soldiers begged him not to retire, and Captain
Bossieux considered the matter we'll but
could not satisfy himself that it would be
right and proper for him to remain when the
court of inquiry had recommended that GER
tain officers, among them himself, should re-
sign Capta;n Bossieux has been in the mill
tsry service long time, and his is one of the
finest companies in the regiment. Colonel
Jones and Major Derbyshire have not re.
signed, and it is understood thet they do not
intend doing so. 1t is apparent TO all who
have watched the trouble in the First that
there must be q reorganization. If the off,
GERS whose designations were recommended by
the court do not voluntarily resign, it is
pretty well under.tood that the Governor will
order the disbandment Of the regiment 80
there may be reorganization.
