LANGHoLz MURDER CASE.
Officers Return From Goliad With
No Prisoner Or Information.

Officers Return From Goliad With
No Prisoner Or Information.
Very little further information
than already published, has been
secured regarding the Langholz
murder case.
The remains OF Mr.. Langholz will
arrive on the train tomorrow. The
funeral will take place probably in
the afternoon.
The news from the Bexar county
officers, Messrs. Campbell, Nc
Cluskey and Shoaf, who took up
the chase for Taylor to Beeville, is
also very meagre. kilograms to
Marshal Druse yesterday show
that the officers went on to Goliad,
which is Taylor's old home. 1t is
thought Taylor preceded them
there.
The three brothers OF Taylor,
Messrs. H. D., and T. G. Taylor, of
Reynolds, and w. r. Taylor, of
Goliad, are now in the city, regis
tered at the Southern hotel.
They are very reticent about
the entire matter. Their pre-
sence aud the kilograms which
have been passing to and from
Goliad and San Antonio between
the officers, leads to the belief that
Taylor has been captured and is
being brought to San Antonio. An
authentic tip was given the LIGHT
reporters this morning to the eff
feet that Taylor was en- route to
this city as prisoner, and would
be brought in by Detective Shoaf
as quietly as possible, some time
this afternoon.
2:l0 p. m.-Sheriff Campbell and
the sheriff of Kimble county, Con-
stable McCloskey and Detective
Shoaf, returned at 2 this afternoon
empty handed. They were very
reticent, and when seen by a
LIGHT reporter at the train, would
not state whether Taylor was in
Jail at Goliad or Beeville, or wheth-
er arrested.

A Big Croker Cob of stuff.

LONDON, June 29.-Rlchard
Croker has engaged passage for
America for September Ia. This
will take tho Tammany sachem
home In time for the New York
Democratic state convention. He
will remain in New York until
after the election In November.
His family do not accompany him.
Croker called at the office of the
Royal society for the Prevention Of
Cruelty to Animals today and had
an interview with the secretary OF
the society regarding the allega-
tion that he and his jockey, Sim ms,
had cruelty driven horse to death.
Croker stated the facts as set forth
in his letter to Henry Labouchere
and also read to the secretary q
paragraph in Jerome X. Jerome's
paper.
The secretary commenting upon
the references in Jerome's paper
as to Croker's connection with the
Tammany organization, said 1t
was clear to his mind that the
writer of the article in question
exhibited an animus that might
be held to dIsqualify him as q
censor OF Croker.
The secretary said further that
he was unable at this time to take
any positive action in the case, but
he had no doubt when the report
was made it would exonerate
Jockey Simms. The secretary ad.
ded that in his opinion Simms Ger.
tainly had good cause for action
against O'Connor's Sun and Je-
rome. Simms has been sum-
moned to London by Croker to
consult a solicitor.
Croker is much elated over his
recent purchases of horses. He says
he has just purchased the mare
Democracy, 5 years old, which is
with foal by st. Simon, one of the
best sires in England, and also a
filly out Of Democracy by Minting.

Theory Versus Practice.

A young woman who, in spite Of the
fact that she had been born and brought
up in a large city, had nevertheless
many most excellent theories in regard
to farming upon a purely scientific
basis, found herself, after some years Of
married life, obliged to take up her res
idence upon q large and model farm.
Desiring always to be a true helpmeet
to her husband, she took a double pleas
ure in reviewing the studies Of her ear
lier years, attacking the subject with
great zest.
AS a result, with small proyocation,
she was wont to wax eloquent-almost
garrulous, indeed-upon such subjects
as 1.-The Proper Mode of Irrigation, "
1.-The Merits and Dement'S of Various
Fertilizers, ""The Best Food For Young
Cattle" and kindred topics. She had
yet to learn that often in this life be-
tween theory and practice there is q
great gulf. Her husband, owing, doubt
less, to conscious inferiority, took a
mean, masculine delight in recanting
for the amusement of their friends tales
of the unimportant slips incident to the
beginning Of any career made by his dis
tinctly better half, the aforesaid tales
disclosing moro talent in the line Of o
raconteur than Of a careful historian,
scrupulous as to fact and data.
One morning at breakfast the follow
ing conversation is alleged to have tax
en- place.
"Mary, my dear, James is going to
kill two pigs today, Now, what do you
wanti"
After taking a hurried mental inven-
tory Of the present resources Of the larder

Wood Pavements.

The authorities Of Berlin, says writ
er in Hardwood, have concluded, after
a period of investigations and tests COW
ering a period Of 10 years or more, to
maintain the wood pavement where
there are horse car lines and have al
ready paved with wood some e., 900
square meters, using for the purpose
nearly $780, 900 blocks, or so blocks to
the square meter. The tests comprised
40 streets, squares and bridges, and Of
the woods used $4,000 square meters
were paved with German pine, $4,000
with Swedish pine and about the same
quantity with beach, 10, 900 with Amer
lean yellow pine and smaller surface
with American cypress. The wood pave
ment, it is also stated, has proved SUI
perior to asphalt in Paris, except for
the boulevards and pleasure drives, and,
as in Berlin, is preferred on streets sub
ject to great wagon traffic. The greater
part of the wood used for paving by the
Partisan authorities is spruce from the
department Of Landes, some foreign
woods being also used, among which is
one from Anam called ciem, so heavy as

Kingsley's Place In literature.

Kingsley was a striking example Of
that which is so characteristic Of recent
English literature-its strong, practical,
social, ethical or theological bent. 1t is
in marked contrast with French litera-
ture. Our writers are always using
their literary gifts to preach, to teach,
to promulgate a new social or religious
movement, to reform somebody or some
thing, to illustrate a new doctrine.
From first to last Carlyle regarded him
self even more as preacher than as artist.
So does his follower, Mr.. Ruskin. Ma
caulay seemed to write history in order
to prove the immeasurable superiority
Of the Wing to the Tory, and Froude
and Freeman write history to enforce
their own moral. Disraeli's novels were
the programme of party and the de-
tense of a cause, and even Dickens and
Thackeray plant their knives deep into
the social abuse Of their time. Charles
Kingsley was not a professed novelist
nor professed man Of letters. He was
novelist, poet essayist and historian al
most by accident, or with Interior aims.
Essentially he was moralist, preach
er, q socialist, reformer and a theo-
Logan.
Without pretending that Kingsley is
a great novelist, there are scenes, espe-
cially descriptive scenes in "Hypatia,
in Westward Hov" which belong to
the very highest order Of literary paint
ing and have hardly any superior in the
romances of our era. No romances, ex-
cept Thackeray's, have the same glow
Of style in such profusion and variety,
and Thackeray himself was no such poet
of natural beauty as Charles Kingsley
a poet, be it remembered, who by sheer
force Of imagination could realize for
us landscapes and climates Of which he
himself had no sort Of experience. Even
Scott himself has hardly done this with
80 vivid a brush. Frederic Harrison

CARRIAGE OF HE FUTURE.
Interesting Speculation as to It's Probable
Character.

The electrical carriage, or horseless
vehicle, promires to become q fad in
Gotham and may eventually supersede
the bicycle in popular favor. The horse
less vehicle and the bicycle will probably
sooner or later be manufactured as
sort Of composite carriage, to carry any
where from one to a dozen persons.
When horses are dispensed with, it will
no longer be necessary to have the We
hicles high enough to enable the rider to
overlook the animal, and this will pro-
duce change as radical as that from
the old high wheeled bike to the safety.
The carriage Of the future will probably
be so low that one may step into it from
the street with perfect ease, and the
danger Of being thrown out from a run
away or collision will be reduced to q
minimum. The carriage will Of course
have low wheels and elastic tires.
For light vehicles the pneumatic tire
may be used, while for rougher and
heavier work some strong cushion tire
will be more serviceable. Then the dash
board, originally designed to protect the
driver from the mud thrown up by the
horses feet, as well as from the kicks
Of the animals, will no longer be need
ed, because there will be no horses TO
splash or kick. The aim, as in the bicy-
Gle, will no doubt be lightness, COM
bined with strength. 1t is quite likely
that the most popular and useful form
of horseless carriage will be a light We
hicle for two persons, which can be easily
stored in an ordinary dwelling, and this
will take the place Of or supplement the
bicycle in families Of moderate means.
All this is very interesting, and the
model horseless carriage will no doubt
come in time, but before it can come in
to general use in this country there must
be vast Improvement in the common
roads. The ordinary country road is bad
enough for bicyclers, but the rider Of
the two wheeled vehicle can pick his
way and traverse a smooth rut or track
of a few inches in width, while the
three or four wheeled vehicle must have
a wide, smooth causeway. The multi
plication and cheapening Of means Of
travel are a vast benefit to the health Of
the people. The bicycle has already ac-
complished much for the public health,
but its benefit is mainly confined to the
active or robust. The horseless carriage
will give the aged and feeble, as we'll as
the strong, the means Of outing New

A Girl Soldier In Cuba.

A little romance is recounted in con-
nection with the battle Of Des Rios. In
the heat of the battle a bugler Of San
doval's regiment was seriously cut over
the head and shoulders with machete
in the hands Of one Of the attacking
rebel officers. The bugler, handsome
young man of decidedly feminine APP
pearance, enrolled as Miguel Orbaneia
Tarres, it appears, is q young girl.
Thinking her wound mortal, she con-
fessed hex secret to fellow soldier aft
er the battle.
She had enlisted in Spain as a volun-
teer for service in Cuba, in order to ac-
company her affianced, whose name had
been drawn for one Of the first expedi-
tions brought out from the peninsula
three months ago. In the company the
two passed as brothers. The lover had
been killed few weeks before the bat
tie Of Dos Rios in shrmish at Hatillo,
near ST. Luis. She had taken the death
of her supposed brother but real lover
very hard indeed, but until the day she
herself was wounded had never disclosed
their real relations to any one. New

Some laborers engaged in digging post
holes unearthed it about Is inches be-

A Satisfactory Swiss Sight.

Belated tourists in Switzerland are
offered "sight" which is as unique as
it is satisfactory. The frowning rocks
around the DEVILS bridge, between Cos
chenen and Andermatt, are hidden I'M
der heavy scaffoldings, put up in order
to efface tho glazing advertisements
which for some time past have disfgured
the grand and grewsome mountain for
tress. 1t will delight the heart Of every
climber on the Gotthart highways and
byways to know that next year he will
be spared the sight of one ungainly ad-
vertisement crying out in gigantic let
tiers. close to the DEVILS bridge, the
names Of the best chocolate manufac-
turers in Switzerland, and Of another
stating tho fact that at a certain Berlin
hotel 700 beds are at the disposal Of the
traveller in Switzerland. One wonders
whether, together with the advertise
ments, the figure with the cloven hoofs
will disappear, which some native or for
eign artist has painted in red color
against one Of the rocks overhanging
the road, Of the parsonage after whom
the famous bridge is named. -Westmin-
