The Escaped Prisoners Capt
ured.

Murray and Rein, who escaped from
the Condor Jail last week, are again
lorked np--this time in the steel cell.
Alter escaping from Jail they travelled in
the direction Of the railroad at Blalock,
and itappears they stole something in
the way Of clothing. provisions, guns,
etc, frou nearly every house they passed
during night time.
Sunday night they stole Win rifle,
a razor. some rope and a number OF other
articles from the house Of III. L. Wise
man on lower Rock creek. Next day Mr..
Wiscman finding them near there with
the stolen property, arrested them both
and took them to Balock, where they
had their preliminary examination Tues
day before Justice 0. Parrish They
were bound over to the grand jury in
the sum Of $500 each, and the constable,
j II. Sindel, brought them to Condor,
arriving here Wednesday night
At their examination, Rein told that
he had never seen Murry until two or
three days hefore. and ii was not known
10 the Blalock people that these were the
escaped prisoners until they reached
Glenn on their way back. When Squire
Parrish placed their bonds at $500, they
seemed greatly astonished, and made
some lengthy arguments TO have the
honds reduced, and spoke Of d great
many places in different portions Of the
country where they had been, where
bonds we're not placed so high for steal
ing similar articles. 1t is very easy to
predict how they learned all this infor-
nation. II is presumed they stole the
rope with the intention Of catching
horses with which to make their escape
out Of The country.
| They evidently are hard set, and
their chances for going over the road are
extremely good, II IL not probable that
they will receive much mercy or accom-
mediation at the hands Of the sheriff
hereafter.

them. Two or three persons from his
village happened TO pass and saw him.
They went home and gossiped about the

Whose Duty It Is.

There seems to be a determina-
ton on the part of several firms in
San Antonio to keep the official
sanitary officers from securing the
work of cleaning vaults. There
are solicitors out da lily in all parts
of the city soliciting orders for the
rem owing of barrels and cleaning
of vaults, and as consequence,
the city sanitary men have but
little work to do.
AT recent session of the city
council an ordinance was passed to
the effect that two sanitary police
officers should be appointed, whose
duty would be to clean all vaults.
The mayor appointed two COM
petent men and they are now at
work. These negroes who go into
back yards, inspect vaults, and
then order them cleaned, some
ing times talk insultingly to the la.
dy whose vault has been inspected,
have no right to trespass and are
subject to arrest, and upon convic-
ton by the recorder, will be fined
in any sum not more than 5000.
No one has a right to inspect a
privy vault excepting the author
lied agents of the city, who will
present proper credentials.

TOOK HIS OWN LIFE.

A Middle Aged Germans Tempo
rary Insanity Causes Death.
A startling sui eide occurred on
Garden street yesterday afternoon
about o'clock, the victim being
Gotloeb w. Gerlach, a German
butcher, aged AZ years.
Gerlach had been suffering for
a week past with fever and was at
times during his illness, very de-
liriOus, so much so that three days
ago he picked up pistol and ran
around the house several times
and when exhausted went in and
laid down.
At the hour above stated, the
victim went to his home and laid
down. His wife supposed he would
shortly drop off to sleep. When he-t
was quieted, she went to the stable
to feed the horses. While engaged
in performing that duty, she was
startled at hearing the report Of a
pistol shot, and rushing into the
house, found her husband lying on
the floor, near the bureau, breathing.
heavily, while the blood and brains
were oozing out of his head, onto
the floor. She quickly sum-
moned DIR. Fitzimmons, and
when he arrived, the unfortu-
nate man was expiring. He died in
a short time after the arrival Of
the physician. After the death the
wound was examined and it was
ascertained that the ball, 3S--
calibre, entered behind the right
ear and came out on the left side
below the temple, falling on the.
floor and being badly mashed.
AS soon as death came Justice E.
Griff Jones was summoned and
viewed the body in the capacity Of
a coroner and afterward issued
a death certificate to the effect
that death had resulted from
a gunshot wound. The funeral will
take place this afternoon, to be
conducted by the German Verein,
of which the deceased was a MEM
ber.'
The family Of the deceased con-
sists of a wife and five children,
who are greatly grieved over the
loss Of their husband and father
who was always kind and affec-
tionate to them all.

GIVE HIM THE MEDAL.
The Champion Fish Story as Re
vealed by F. Hansl.

NCd4CA ny AANNS1'
Mr.. F. Hansl takes the cake
from Muenchhausen in the fol,
lowing fish story: He, with a
friend, went on a fishing eXpedi-
tion to the Medina not long ago;
they were fully equipped for pisca-
torial and hunting sports. A nice
place had been selected on the
banks of the river for a nights
camp, they had made themselves
comfortable on a log, the blue
curled aroma from their meers-
chaums ascending in the balmy
air, while the rolling silvr'y
waves of the Medina, kissed by
the bright full mOOn,went silently
by, cOmmuning with platOnic stoi-
cism on the fallacies of life,-,
when 10 and behold a rude awak-
ening to the realities of life some
thing was moving, it could not
be an earthquake, for there was no
rumbling sound, yet the log did
move! Breach leaders and
"forty five shooters were
brought to play in short
motions upon the supposed log,
when, still another surprise, after
the third vOlley upon the supposed
log, sweet music filled the calm
air. A transformation scene, the
supposed log turned out to be
giant alligator. But whence came
the music? AeOlian harp like trans
positions, america" and yankee
Doodle" one after the other, came
in dulcet tones. to our ears. The
solution to this came later; a ped
dler who had carried small pocket
music boxes as part of his stock
had been missing,and his alligator
ship had been making a gala din
ner of the peddler and some of his
wares, and in order to assist diges-
ton had subsidized into the dor
mant condition in which lie was
found on the shady banks of the
stream.
The music box being of indi-
gestible material had been wound
up, and the same bullet that put
the finishing touches to the future
existence of the alligator, had
touched the button to set the music
a going.
P.S. This has nothing to do
with the alligator in the LIGHT
office show window.

Hold the Witness.

The officers of the law should
take special precautions to prevent
the "spiriting away" of important
witnesses, in the HammOnd-Wan-
dell case. Efforts have been made,
and are now being made, it is said,
to bride the unfortunate girl, or to
get her out of the way. A couple of
philanthropic CD gentlemen CD (no
doubt from some personal motive)
have inquired of the LIGHT repre-
sentatives where the girl could be
found, as they wanted to provide
her with funds, that she might go

A. L. RODGERS DYING.
His Life Spared by the Governor,
Now Passing Away From
Natural Causes,

| SduSSSs
1t will be remembered that A! l..
! Rodgers, formerly of this city, but
more recently of Dallas, was tried
and convicted of rape, and was
sentenced to death. His many
! friends, both here and in Dallas,
got up petition showing that the
evidence against him was doubtful,
and considerable excitement and
prejudice existed at the time of the
trial, which, in all probability, in
| tluenced the verdict. Governor
HOgg respited the prisoner, at the
last moment, and, after careful
investigation, he concluded that
the allegations of the petition were
we'll founded, and committed the
death sentence into imprisonment
for life. Rodgers was then taken
to the Rusk (TeXas) penitentiary,
where he is now serving out his
life sentence.
Mr.. j. j. Rodgers, brother of
the prisoner. has received a letter
from him, dated August 6, in
which, among much private mat
ter, he states: 81 rather be where
| am now than in the shoes of the

God and l know the court is not.

as | do not expect to live long, and
that is, have my remains brought

much. l ask for nothing else. Do
not think | am mourning, for I am
not, but, of cOurseit bOthers me to
think | have to be buried here, so

this respect. | know, brother,
/ will never see you on earth
any more, for you will, | know,
never come here, but | hope
you will meet me in Heaven where |
our angel mother is now watching
over me and ready to receive me.
This leaves me so sick and / am
hardly able to write. Receive the |
love of brother and the kindest |
to all friends. Forgive me |
if | ever did you a wrong
even as | have forgiven Others"
Mr.. Rogers says: 81 have no
doubt my brother, who has been
delicate, is now seriously i'll and in
danger of death. shall endeavor
to get him pardon so that he can
die free and unfettered, but how
things will end God alone knows,
and | am content to do my duty
and leave the case in His hands"
