An Object Lesson.

To the Daily LIGHT:
Work upon the shoe factory is
progressing with satisfactory
haste, and within four weeks the
projectors hope to be able to start
the machinery and commence the
manufacture of shoes. There is an
object lesson in this enterprise
which should not pass unheeded.
1t teaches the people of San An
tonic that "Where there's a will
there's a way" and that by united
and concerted action obstacles can
be overcome and great enterprises
founded, even though the begin
ming be small. Much of the credit
due for the laudable vim and en-
ergy with which the shoe factory
project has been pushed to ma
terial fact, is conceded to Mr.. G.
r. Sullivan, president of the COM
pany, whose efforts in this, as in
all Undertakings which promise to
benefit and upbuild San Antonio,
have been untiring. His time and
his means have been given I'M
stintedly, and he enjoys his re-
ward in the successful and early
fulfillment of his cherished plans.

Attempted Highway Robbery.

Mr.. Lehr, saloonist of East Commerce
street, near the Southern Pacific railway
crossing, was held up by two men with
drawn revolvers last night after he closed
his saloon and was making his way to his
home near by. The men told him to throw
up his hands and give up his money, but
he began calling to his wife and she be-
gan screaming for help from the neigh
waymen and they ran away. Mr.. Lehr
says he noticed three men hanging about
the saloon for several hours last night,
apparently watching every customer that
came in, and he thinks these are the
same who held him up, expecting him to
carry his days cash receipts with him.

Cause and Effect.

Success can only be assured by going back
to the cause in the treatment of disease.
Many Doctors can see theIeffects 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 few diseases and become as
familiar with them as you do with the faces
of your family. When he sees Skin Dis.
ease, he knows just where the cause lies, and
just whatto do.
If you have exposed yourself to disease and
there appears a suspicious sore, to his ex-
perienced eye, it becomes plain whether it is
poison in the blood or local trouble.
So it is with Lost Manhood, Gonorrhoea,
Syphilis, Early Vices, and other Diseases Of
this class.
DIR. CLEMENS has devoted years to these
diseases and possesses skin and methods OF
treatment unexceled.
He can cure Structure without cutting, di
ating or electricity and without pain or
of day from business. A new and wond
full method.

A Crusade On Vermin.

DR.. Menger, the city physician, has
found sure cure for the nuisance of lice
and other vermin which will get into the
hospital and jails, in spite OF the care of
the guardians Of same. The following
note from the doctor explains itself, and
is given:
"a patient was admitted to the city
hospital yesterday, full of lice. / am
having everyone that has lice, at the
hospital or at the jail, stripped of their
clothing, and the latter exposed to burn
ing sulphur. As heretofore, this clothing
and beddings Of the hospital. ETC., was
much damaged by boiling in chemicals,
ETC., and the sulphur fumes / 4m sure
will destroy every particle of the lice, ex-
cept, perhaps. the ovum, when the cloth
ing must again be fumigated.
He has sent this Office fine photograph
Of some of the vermin taken with q
microscope and enlarged several times.

First Factory-1S02.
The above is an illustration Of the
building in which the company COM
menced operations In 1892. AS the rep
utation Of the mandatory grew and
the company's business extended, add
itlons were made to the original build
ing. machines were crowded Into
places where machinery was never
meant to run, until. in 1895, the limit
of extension possible in this building
was reached.
The new mill, known as the 'Finest
Mill in the West" is of brick and
stone throughout. built in the most
substantial manner and approved form
of mill construction, and filled, from
cellar to roof, with the finest and most
modern machinery known to the art OF
wooden manufacture.
One who has never een manufactur-
ing of this kind done on a large scale
will remember an hour spent in the
Grand Forks Wooden Mills as n OF
tthe most interesting in his experience,
ns does the representative Of this pa
per, who recently had the pleasure OF
q visit to this mill.
The first apparatus he Is shown con-
sists of a huge iron bowl or tank some
thirty feet long, weighing, perhaps,
$4,000 pounds, called a Wool-Washer.
In this great tank is prepared the
chemical solution which removes the
grease and impurities from the wool.
A series of brass rakes automatically
push the wool through the tank at the
rate of 5000 pounds per day. The
wool is then put through the picker,
IN iron cylinder armed with heavy
teeth and revolving about 1000 revolu-
lions per minute. This "picks," or
tears the wool apart so that it floats
away from the end of the machine
almost 'as light as air"
Lifted by elevators to the second
floor, the wool now passes through the
carding machines, large cylinders COW
cred with millions Of wire teeth and
revolving rapidly. Between these cyl
inders the wool is passed from n to
another, and drawn of at the end in
loose ropes, or "roving," as 1t is called,
from each successive machine finer
than before, until it Is reduced to the
point where it is ready to spin into
yarn. Words cannot easily describe
the delicacy and intricacy Of this ma
chinery, and it is to be hoped no reader
of this paper will fail to take advant-
age Of the opportunity whenever in
Grand Forks, to personally visit the
Wooden Mills.
1t is most interesting to see the big,
automatic spinning mules, each spin
ming hundreds of threads, travelling
back and forth over the iron track, as
IL by magic. An ordinary days work
for the spinning machinery Of this mill
is about 100000 yards Of yarn. It
would require 1000 women, working
by hand in the old-fashioned way, to
keep up with the carding and spinning
machinery on this floor.
