WEST ENDERs MEET.
They Circulate a Petition For San Antonio
Waterworks Mains

VhIorWOrkS mdluS
According to the call issued by q
committee of West End citizens, Of
which j. M. George was chair man,
q macs meeting of citizens was
held last night at the pavilion.
About 100 men were present.
j. M. George was elected chair
man aud Herman Brendel was
chosen as secretary. The object Of
the meeting, 1t was stated, was to
devise ways and means to protect
the West End property from de.
%struction by fire. 1t was thought
that the best means to that end
was to invite and urge the San
Antonio Waterworks company to
extend its mains to West End, and
with this end in view a petition to
the city council for the extension
Of the mains to the suburb was
passed about for signatures.
The petition recites that it is
necessary for the we'll being of the
community that the mains be ex-
tended there and each of the sign

San Antonio company for a period
Of one year. About fifty sigma
lures of property owners and resi-
dents were obtained.
A committee of five, composed
of j. M. George, Herman Brendel,
William Lacey, T. P. Walsh and
B. F. Nichols, was appointed to
continue the circulation OF the pc
tition and obtain all the signatures
possible.
The meeting was very orderly
and quiet. No denupeiation OF the
West End water works was made,
the opinion seeming to be that
while the service of that company
was good enough "a far rs it went,
it did not go far enough.
Assistant City Clerk Scheide-
mantel broke the monotony of the
occasion and aroused the ducks
from their repose by severely
srraigning the "fire fiend" for Wis.
iting West End at a time when the
aforesaid fiend we'll knew that
there was no water in the pipes.
He also scored the LIGHT a scratch
or two for publishing the state
ment-o OF the water works company,
The meeting adjourned until
next Saturday evening at $3.50
o'clock, the same to be held at the
pavilion.

NEW YORK STOCK LETTER.

Wall Street news stock letter by
private wire to the Alamo Brokerage
Co., 203 Alamo plaza, San Antonio,
Texas:
New York, June Goth, 1896.
The stock market was dull and pro-
fessional. Traders were inclined to
close up their contracts and as the
prevailing tendency this week has
the form of realizations. The lower
prices from London also had an in
fluence tending to reaction. The
changes in the weekly bank state
ment were too small to have any in
fuence on sentiment. otherwise news
was unimportant. Rock Island was
especially affected by the late adj
verse reports as to condition of Kan
sas wheat. Tobacco was barely
steady in the face of reiteration of
reports that there would be a divi-
dend on the common stock mex week.
The market closed dull and irregular.

GEN. SINGLETONS PASS.
The Last Official Document Writ
ten by President Lincoln.
A Message of Peace stopped by Booths
Terrible Crime Now Preserved In
q case Of Coda Memento
of Priceless Value.

A daughter of the late James w.
Singleton, says the New York Sun, has
a card which is historically of great
interest. 1t is a pass written by Presi-
dent Lincoln late on April 10, 1865, and
is more than probably the last pass
that he ever wrote.
The war was practically ended. Lee,
with his Scared and battered legions,"
awaited the end that was swiftly APP
preaching. The surrender was a ques-
ton of time. Weary of bloodshed,
with malice toward none, with charity
for all" Mr.. Lincoln, in the interests of
peace, had summoned to his aid Gen.
James W. Singleton, of Quincy, Ill, q
Virginian by birth, and personally
federacy, and also intimately associ-
ated with the president in his western
home.
Already he had made several trips to
Richmond (unoficially, of course), and
there was a chance that the negotia-
tons would bear good fruit and tend to
a speedy and peaceful adjustment of
many questions by making both sides
better acquainted with each other.
At Gen. ~Singleton's request Mr.. Liu-
coin had given him a letter stating, in
substance, that if Virginia or any of the
southern states would recognize the
authority of the United States and elect
senators and members of congress such
senators and members of congress
would be entitled to take their seats.
"Mr. President" said Gen. Singleton,
referring to this letter, when I go
south / shall be asked how your promise
in this letter can consistently stand
alongside of your emancipation procla-
nation. What shall / tell them?"
Singleton" said Mr.. Lincoln, 81 have
explained, and will now say again, that
/ have issued that proclamation, and II
it have any legal effect 1 have no power
to recall it. If it have not any legal
effect, it is of no consequence. 1 would
not take it back if I could, and could not
if / would"
Thus briefly was summed up Mr.. Lin
coins estimate of that proclamation
that changed the d~estinies of millions of
people.
he continued: "My duty is simply to
enforce the laws. 1 want to see these

states and all these people come back
and submit to the constitution, and
then my duty is done. I am the execu-
tive part of the government; and when
1 have enforced the laws the other de-
partments will relieve me of all re-
sponsibility."
On April IA he instructed Gen. Sim
gleton to assure the people Of Virginia
that he would favor the return Of the
state into the union with her govern
ment intact, and the same on the part
Of the seeded states"
II cannot do everything at once" he
said, " for I am impeded by the fact
that everything is under martial law
at the present time. I wish you to 90
again immediately to Richmond and
reassure the people"
Mr.. Usher, secretary Of the interior,
was present at the interview and was to
accompany Gen. Singleton to Rich.
mond. They took leave Of the pfesi.
dent and went out together.
Later in the evening, going to join
Gov. Yates, of Illinois, and other friends,
with whom they were to make a party
for supper, they were met on the
Threshold NTH flying rumors of the as,
sassination of Mr.. Lincoln at Ford's
theater.
Thus were Mr.. Lincoln's last words
those of peace and kindness.
Recognizing the value of that me
mento of the time, Gen. Singleton or
dered q case of gold, in one compart
ment of which, under glass, is the card
with its significant date.

ELL Broken to Harness.

Eleven elk that have been broken to
harness and trained TO drive single,
double and tandem, are owned by two
men of Columbia Falls, Mont. They
were captured about a year ago, and
were easily tanned, being % as gentle
as horses. They were taken by hunters
on skits. When an elk was located it
was driven down the mountainside into
the deep SHOWS in the valleys and there
roped and made captive. The owners
have had offers ranging from 5000 to
$3.50 apiece for the animals, but none
of the herd is for sale.

Wire Finer Than Your Hair.

The very finest wire made in this coun-
try comes from a wife mandatory at
Taunton, Mass. This metal cobweb of
minute diameter is exactly the 1-5ooth
part of an inch in thickness-much finer
than human hair. Ordinary wire, even
though of small diameter, is drawn
through holes of steel plates, but on ac-
count of the yea such plates cannot
be used in making the hair wire. The
Taunton factory mentioned uses
drilled diamonds for that purpose.
These queer diamond dies are made by
a woman of New York city.
