WED'SDAY, JANUARY s, 80

1t is growing monotonous, this
grabbing for gold on the part OF
the British in the colonies. Take
any map of either the Guiana
country, the Alaskan country, the
South African country, and it is
all one. Wherever the gold de-
posits are there is the long claw of
the British lion stretched out to
seize upon the same, and to make
good that stretch a bogus right of
boundary is set up. John Bull
talks of the love of gold, the wor-
ship of the almighty dollar by
Uncle Sam, but Sam is not in it.
Anything at home or in the colo
MES can be purchased with British
gold from a land patent to patent
of nobility. 1t is to the credit of
Queen Victoria that she kicks hard
at this grabbing.

Grau's Opera Company.

Grau's Opera company drew
another large audience last night
for the presentation OF "The Grand
Duchess" and certainly gave the
people the worth OF their admis-
sion price. The cast was we'll
assigned and the chorus in excel
lent voice, while the many stage
pictures formed by artistic group
ings were very pleasing. The COM
pany is the best ever brought to
this city by Mr.. Grau, and that is
some Of the best praise it can be
given.

Dress the Neck Becomingly.

Emma M. Hooper contributes
an article in January Ladies'
Home Journal upon "Dressing the
Neck Becomingly," and asserts
the success of a toilette depends
upon the neckwear. She describes
and Miss Underwood has illus.
trated q number OF collar effects,
and has to say of the "handker-
chief STYLE" very popular just
now: "The handkerchief collars
consist of double straight band
of batiste Of fine lawn, with four
corners sewed on the top and
turned over on the outside, leav-
ing a division at the centre, back
and front. The corners are of
batiste tucked on the edge plain in
the centre, with a row of Valen-
ciennes lace inlaid between. The
four corners OF fine openwork
handkerchief could be taken for
this purpose. Sometimes a band
ribbon Is fitted around the lawn
band and tied in a bow at the
back otherwise the band is worn
inside of high dress collar, with
the points falling outside over
the edges Of the collar"

ooLoNEL RICHARD wooLEY.

In the death of Col. Richard
Woolley, of this city, the announce
ment Of which will be found else.
where in this issue of the LIGHT,
the city Of San Antonio has lost
one of Its most substantial citizens
and one Of its most public spirited.
During his nine years residence
here he has commended himself to
the public confidence In everything
with which his name has been
associated. He was man of
liberal education, large views,
broad sympathies, generous i'm
pulses, correct life. He was thor
oughly alive to the natural adj
vantages Of this city and was al
ways found in the front ranks of
those who were undertaking for
her advancement. His loss will
be deeply felt in the business
circles Of this city, no less than in
that more exclusive home circle by
whom as father and husband he
was exceptionally we'll beloved.
To them and to this city the
LIGHT extends its sincere con-
dolence.

The latest from Kentucky is to
the effect that young Blackburn
may have had special reason for
declaring that the next senator
from that state would be either
his father or a republican. 1t is
growing quite clear to even the IN
prejudiced democratic mind that
in the contest between Dunlap and
Kaufman, for a seat in the house,
Dunlap is likely to be seated, as
the evidence is all in his favor.
Should this occur there is no doubt
OF the election OF a republican
senator.

"Dixie" Williams Wounds Man.

The Greensboro, KY, Messenger
gives the following account of fight
in that city between Rev. "DiXie"
Williams and Hack" Miller, a
livery stable man.
"Dixon G. Williams, of Chicago,
H., a Cumberland Presbyterian
evangelist, also Vice President of
the Chicago Manufacturing Com
pany, 240 to 24S, West Lake street,
had a difficulty with Hack Miller,
livery stable man, at the Palace
Hotel, in this city, early this morn
ing, which resulted in Williams
dangerously cutting Miller with a
knife in the abdomen. Miller is in a
critical condition and may not live.
"The origin of the difficulty was a
misunderstanding over an order for
a livery team. Miller made use of
some abusive language and threat
ened to take revenge, and invited
Williams outside of the hotel office.
Mr.. Davis, proprietor of the hotel,
ordered both men to go outside,
which they did, and Miller struck
Williams in the face. Then Will
liams used his knife with fatal effect.
Miller was taken to his home. Will
liams was arrested and promptly
gave bail for his appearance on the
26th inst, at which time he will
have preliminary examination.
