Leda Lost the Monev.

NEW YORK, Nov. ga special
to the Herald gives the foil flowing
account of the defeat OF Leda, the
crack trotter OF France, in the
international" at Neuilly, Leval-
lios:
The winner (Vallejo) who re-
ceived $50 metres start and whu
was driven by Horace Brown, was
never headed. 1t was an open Sec
ret before the start that she was
the stables selection, but on ac-
count of her Maisons la Fit per-
Torrance Artesia had many fol-
lowers. The winners time was
5:2S or 1874 1-5 to the kilometre,
Leda was certainly off color or she
is not nearly as fast on the "Dirt"
as she is on a turf track. Artesia
trotted prettily and must not be
lost sight of. Results: Prix de
Sebastapol, international harness
trotting, purse 1000 francs, dis
lance about $500 metres: Vallejo,
Marquis de Vivens, Horace Brown
first; Artesia second, Leda, third.
Time, 8 :SS, 1886, 5 :42.

issue ever gotten out in San
Antonio.
Let every body put their shout
ders to the wheel and put San
Antonio before the people in her
true colors.
Yesterday and today have been
eventful ones to the LIG HIT. Mr..
Hal David, the we'll known des-
criptive writer whom we have
secured to manage the getting-up
of our mammoth special edition,
has met with a courteous round Of
success, which is indeed gratifying
and commensurate with the great
work In hand. This work is being
rapidly pushed forward and we
believe that those who endorse the
effort will never have cause to
regret it.
When the LIGHT announced to
the public that 1t would issue a
grand special edition three ideas
or rather three branches of the
same idea were in mind:
First to issue an article bristling
with the advantages that To-
cation in San Antonio offers.
Second, to show thoroughly the
manner aud kind of city and
county government we enjoy. Also
to give thorough description of
our bar and medical fraternity
and the gentlemen that compose
them.
Third, TO give our merchants
an unparalleled medium by which
they can reach every citizen in
San Antonio, Bexar county and
many of the surrounding coun-
ties.
For these purposes the LIGHT
secured the services o! Mr.. Hal
David, President of the Press
Publishing Company, gentleman
who has had thorough experience
in these matters.
The citizens OF San Antonio are
responding heartily and nobly to
our effort. A bona fide circulation
Of $1,000 copies is an enormous
issue and will reach not less than
100000 citizens, We mean bust
ness and the great success attend.
ing the effort is significant OF the
fact that the people of San Anto-
Mo believe in the effort.
Every citizen who has the well
fare OF this city at heart; every
member OF our bar and medical
fraternity, and every business man
who desires to dispose Of his goods
ought to patronize the affair. or
course we expect to make some
money out of the affair, Eve are
not here altogether for our HEALTHY
but the amount will be a mere
bagatelle to the good that it will
do our grand city and county.
The papers will be circulated
direct by mail with the names
written plainly on the wrapper,
insuring rigid, complete and
diversified circulation.
In fact, we assure the public of
the most complete epitome ever
published in San Antonio, BeXar
county and this section of Texas.
We will endeavor to see you all,
but should you be overlooked
call US up.

II NEW YORK BILL.
A Road Law Calculated to Overcome the
Prejudice of Taxpayers.

A good roads bill introduced in the
New York legislature is skillfully
drawn so as to overcome in a large
measure the prejudice of local tax
payers against road building. 1t pro-
vides that the expense of road improve
ment be borne one-half by the state,
~one-fourth by the county and one
fourth by the towns along the line of
the roads that are constructed. The
board of railway commissioners is put
in charge of the road building, a road
engineer being attached TO their serv-
ice. 1t is made the duty of the board
to hold public meetings in different
parts of the state in order to promote
public sentiment in favor better roads.
Roads are to be improved on petition
of two-thirds of the of land
along which they pass, if the people in
the towns through which such roads
run favor the Improvement. In order
to start the work the bill contains an
appropriation of S25O.OOO.
The system as proposed would seem
to be likely to promote road building.
If good roads are worth having, 1t Is
surely a wise expenditure of money on
the part of the state to encourage their
construction. 1t can well afford to
invest a considerable sum each year
in this manner. 1nSOmuch as 1t
seems the only way of getting the
movement for better roads started, the
New York plan to have the local tax
payer relieved from direct payments is
a highly practical one. BY making
the construction of improved roads de-
pendent on the expressed wishes of
property owners a proper limitation is
set upon the amount of road building,
while at the same time it is likely to
cause competition among different
communities to get the start of each
other in this respect.-GoOd Roads.
