Cause and Effect.

Success can only be assured by going back
to tbs cause in the treatment of disease.
Many Doctors can see the effects only, such
as are visible to the eye, and treat the sym.
ptoms, but while the cause exists cure is
impossible and herein lies the secret of so
many failures. The skilled Specialist devotes
all his study to a few diseases and become as
familiar with them as you do with the faces
of your family. When he sees a Skin Dis.
ease, he knows just where the cause lies, and
just what to do.
If you have exposed yourself to disease and
there appears suspicious sore, to his ex.
peienced eye, it becomes plain whether it ia
poison in the blood or a local trouble.
30 it is with Lost Manhood, Gonorrhoea,
Syphilis, Early Vices, and other Diseases OF
this class.
DR.. CLEMENS mas devoted years to these
diseases and possesses skill and methods OF
treatment unexceIIed.

ating or electricity and without pain or loss
of day from business. A new and wonder

CHILDREN UNSAFE.
A Little Girl Assaulted by a Mexican
Tamale Vendor Near Her
Parents Home.
Parents Home.

Idr6QGS n0n6'
A Mexican tamale vendor
named Francisco Lopez was fined
500 in the police court this morn
ing, for an assault committed last
night upon the person of Mar
garetta l.. Taylor, the little nine
year-old daughter of Mr.. f. d.
Taylor, who resides at the corner
Of Romano and Augusta streets.
Last evening, about 7 o'clock,
the little girl was sent to store
on Romano street, and, remaining
away longer than was thought
necessary, Mr.. Taylor started after
her. Hardly had he left the house,
when he heard her scream, and
saw the Mexican run across the
street and through Mr.. Rote's
yard. When she saw her father,
the child rushed to his arms and
said the Mexican had assaulted
her in manner leaving no doubt
of his foul intentions toward her
innocence.
Telling her to run home, Mr..
Taylor started after Lopez, and
brought him to the ground with a
two-pound rock. He would have
killed the Mexican then and there,
had not neighbor, Mr.. Walthall,
interfered and advised that they
carry him to engine house No. 4,
and ring for the patrol wagon,
This was done, and Lopez was
brought to the police station, where
an affidavit for assault was made
against him.
AT the trial this morning the
Mexican said that he met Marga-
retta on Romano street, and that
she demanded some tamales from
him and called him a name, and
that he then made a grab for her.
He did not state what his inten.
ton was in trying to catch hold OIL
her.
The defendant gave notice OF ap.
peal at the close of the trial.

No Fair in Sight.

The soliciting committee for the
fair are practically of u animous
opinion that there will + no fair.
The appeal to the bush 50 men
who will be most benefitt by the
fair forces this conclusion, as they
do not take any adequate interest
in the matter. The committee
have determined that they will
not ask the people who will be
least benefited by the fair to put
up for those who will be most
benefited and have accordingly
concluded to drop the matter. This
Is as was feared, and the re-
sponsibility for failure must rest
not with the committee who took
hold Of the business in a business
way, but with the men who should
have put up for the fair literally,
and would not. This is just what
the LIGHT predicted would follow
II the businessvproposition of the
business men, who had undertaken
this work was not met in a bust
ness way. San Antonio must run
in the old rule little longer, but
.! Lord-How Long?

The Southern Pacific recently
abolished its habit of giving passes
to unemployed railroad men out Of
this city, and as a result. it has
caused great deal OF hard feeling
to exist among some OF the en-
ployes Of the transportation and
motive power department of the
road. A petition was received
some months ago at the general
Office at Houston, from conductors
and brakeman, asking the COM
pany to abolish all passes. The pc
tition stated that owing to the
many strikes in the past few years
and the large number Of idle rail-
road men travelling this way, and
usually selecting the Southern
Pacific as route, it worked great
hardship upon the employees and
their families, for the reason that
when the company furnished the
men a pass, they, the men, had to
feed them at the terminals and
some, perhaps, for two weeks.
Anent the new order of the COM
pany. A prominent passenger
conductor on the road said: "The
new order issued will cause a great
deal OF ugly comment from en-
ployes on foreign roads, as it has
been the custom of officials in the
past, through courtesy, to extend
transportation to any man VINO
possessed a travelling card, and
since this costume has been abol-
ished, l expect all employees of
the road who want to visit their
homes in another state or in search
of employment will have a hard
row to hoe when they strike an
other road.
Gas matters now stand" contin-
ued the conductor, Gall idle rail-
roSd men who want to get out of
San Antonio over the Southern
Pacific will either have to ride in
box car or walk"

the boys shot fell short of his aim.
The geese were in wild disorder when they
