Pilot Point Mirror says that man
is a plain everyday, two.legged
animal. That may be, down the
Pilot way, but in this neck Of
woods he wears so many frills, par
ticularly about election times, that
his own mother would not know
him.

The Texas solOns think that a
boy should be guarded against the
seductions of Tobacco until he Is
sixteen years old, but a girl should
be guarded against the iibertine
and seducer only until she is
twelve.
Hawaii will find that she is in
uneasy conditions in so far as re-
cognition OF her republican form
Of government Is concerned until
this present congress is off the
hooks.
The manner in which thel legis-
lature of Texas deals with this
question Of protecting the young
girl in this state Is not at all COM
plimentary to the moral or family
standing Of that body.
There is no such a thing as pre-.
serving the purity OF the home
without preserving the young girls
from the seductions OF the licen-
tious and the debauched.
If the present Congress and AID.
ministration remained in power
until the close OF the decade how
many millions could the treasury
borrow at three per cent? To ask
the question is enough.
The remonstrance that comes to
Austin against taking the home.
steads Of the old settlers on Mus
tang Island away from them, In
order to advance deep water inter-
terests, ehould be needed.
The colored brother seems to be
on both sides OF the fence as usual.
His head is level. 1t Is a poor cal
culator who plants all his beans In
one hole this time OF the year.
The LIGHT has fought its fight
for principle and what 1t believes
to be for the best interests OF the
city, utterly regardless of per-
sonal leanings or friendships. It
abides the result.
AS the returned correspondents
are heard from it Is seen that the
reports OF Japanese massacre at
Fort Arthur and elsewhere are en-
phatically denied by eye wit
nesses.
There Is disposition to prevent
the sowing Of johnson grass In
Texas, but the fellow that sows
arrows, frebrands and death Is
putting in the usual crop on time

You cannot SOW Johnson grass
In Texas, but you can SOW seeds of
corruption and impurity in little
girls mind and there Is no law
against it unless the harvest ripens
before she is II years of age. All
that the devil of lust has to do Is to
make his calculations accordingly.
This whole subject is one that
would make the very devil chide
the fathers and sons and brothers
in the Legislature with their inhu-
manity. One would think that
Texas was China, where the girls
are considered calamity and their
birth received with mourning and
fasting and demonstrations of
sorrows.

There is no kicking in this city
now or ever over the appropria-
tions that are made for efficient
street cleaning and improvements.
This fact has been noted again and
again, not only here, but in all other
cities that are up to snuff and a
pinch over. Clean streets and good
pavements and A l sidewalks are
accepted as a personal benefit and
no one kicks at what benefits him
self and family. This fact should
not be lost sight OF, as it also indi.
Gates in what direction the efforts
OF the city government may be put
forth with the certainty of meeting
the approval OF the people who pay
the taxes. Not only so, clean
streets and good sidewalks and
pavements are the best advertise
ment that any city can put forth
as TO its liberal progressive spirit,
while at the same time these i'm
provement facilitate the traffic Of
the city and the comfortable move
ments Of her citizens, as we'll as
ministering in no small degree to
the healthfulness OF the commu-
nifty. Let us have clean streets. - =.

SWEAT SHOP BLAZE.
Completely Gutted in Fifteen
Minutes Might Have
Been a Horror.

NEW YORK, Dec. 4, 1884 sx-story
sweat shop building on the corner of At
torney and Rivington streets, caught fire
about six o'clock this morning and in fif-
teen minutes was gutted. The firemen
succeeded in saving the adjoining buildings
on each side, all of them being tene-
ments filed with people. A dozen people
had ito be carried out of the two houses
on either side of the burning building,
and nearly dozen others, men, had TO
drop to neighboring roofs to get to houses
where they could escape into the street.
The fire began in the rag shop of Wilson
4 Altman, in the cellar of Nos. 102 and
104 Attorney street
Besides the rag shop, there were on the
ground floor William Katchheim, butter
and eggs, who also occupied the store
on Rivington street, No. 181, and Mr.
Bremen, barber, at No. 10S Attorney
street. On the first floor was Abraham
Deroschisky, clothing. On the second,
Abraham Kampf clothing; on the third,
Jacob Toffar, clothing. and Jacobs ana
Godkin, button hole makers; on the fourth
floor, London & Silverstein, children's
cloaks, and A. Goldstein, clothing. The
fifth floor had A. Wolf, clothing, and j.
Bopka, clothing. The sixth. Louis Lem
beck, clothing. David Luzinsky, book
seller, had a shop on the second floor of
the Rivington street side of the building.
None of these firms had much stock on
hand SO that the loss from that source
was not great and amounts to less than
s25,oO0 On the building the loss may
reach $4,000,

STEADILY POURING In.
Private Holders Deposftfng Their
Gold to Help the GoVernmanf.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4, 1S95.-Since
Secretary Carlisle's offer to pay express
charges both ways for gold deposited,
in order to build up the gold reserve
slightly. over $4,000 in gold has been de-
posted in conformity with the offer.
Many millions of dollars of gold have
been offered by national banks but the
conditions attached have been such that
Secretary Carlisle has declined to re-
ceive it. For instance 100000 in gold was
offered by Louisville, KY, banks. The
gold was light weight and the banks
wanted it accepted at it's face and not it's
bullion value.
Many banks in Western b-Treasury
critics offered to deposit gold if they
We're given credit in New York. The
terms of the original offer expressly
precludes this being done, as it was not
the intent of the Treasury to assume
the expense of exchange for national
bands. The offer stated that the gold
must be deposited in the nearest sub
Treasury by the depositor and currency
would be forwarded in exchange the
Treasury paying express charges both
ways.
II, did not contemplate the deposit of
gold in one sub-treasury city and the
delivery of currency therefor in another
pense. In the meantime Withdrawals of
gold from the Treasury still continue
and the gold reserve is now slightly be-
