THE BASE BALL TEAM.

In New Hands and Ready to go Abroad in the
Pennant Race.
The Fort Worth base ball club will not
disband, as was reported yesterday, but
will stay in the league. The club was
taken charge of by new management
yesterday, who have put it on solid
basis and viii keep it in the field until
the season is finished. The new manage
ment are modest about beng known in
the matter, and all they care for is that
the team retain the reputation of play
ing fair, honest ball, but they are
hustlers from wayback, and will doubt
less do much to add to the prosperity of
the national game in Fort Worth. They
start out with the determination of hav-
ing honest ball, and that is what they
will have or know the reason why. The
following letter from Manager WEIGH of
the home team explains itself:
Waco, TEX, July Z, 1889.
W. NJ. Hampton.
DEAR SIR-We are receiving the same
old dose. 1t was the worst case of bare
faced robbing l ever saw in my expert
ence as a ball player. 1 would have
taken the team off the field if l had re-
ceived the guarantee before the fifth IN
ming. The game should have stood seven
to nothing in our favor il he (the umpire)
had given us a square deal. This is not
an excuse for Ioosing the game, but an
actual fact. There are gentlemen here
who will verify my statement. I have
had dozen people come up to me and
say: eve are Waco people and wanted
to see our team wis but not with the
umpire - l think it bad move in those
people over there sending money to cit
les we are playing in to bet on us, as
am positive that mclaughlin was bought,
since no umpire could have been guilty
of robbing in the manner he did. Even
i child could have done better. The
people here hooted him from the grand
stand. 1 won't stand it any more.
Lemons, McVeY and Hill were fined to-
day, but don t pay any fines if they send
them in. Yours respectfully,
z. j. WEIGH.
McNabb, Waco s great pitcher, was in
Fort Worth last night on his way to
Denver, he having signed with the club
there. He was shown WEIGH s letter
and said it was strictly true, that he sat
in the grand stand during the game and
Fort Worth got the worst of it. He
says, however, the people of Waco do
not indorse such rulings and hooted the
umpire for his rank decisions.
The league clubs are now all punched
with the exception of Houston, which
has good lead but still has by no
means a certainty of taking the pen
uaut.

THE CRONIN MURDER.
Burke the Winnipeg Prisoner Identified by
Carlson.

Carlson
CHICAGO, ILL. July 9 Martin Burke,
the Cronin suspect, was identified to-day
at Winnipeg by young Carlson, and the
taking of testimony against Burke by the
Canada tribunal was soon afterwards
completed.
Arguments were heard by Judge Tuley
in Chicago this afternoon on the question
of admitting to bail Lawyer Beggs,
senior warden of camp twenty, applica-
ton in Beggs' behalf not having been
made until after an Indictment had been
returned. Some entirely new points were
raised involving Judge Tuley's jurisdic-
ton and other vital matters. Decision
was reserved until tomorrow.
THERE IS THE MAN.
WINNIPEG, MAN, July 9.-In the
Burke extradition case to-day, John A.
Broderick, a detective of Chicago, said
there had been no reward offered for
Burke's capture.
Charles j Carlson, whose evidence
was required to complete the story of
Burlze's alleged connection with DR..
Cronin s murder, and who arrived from
Chicago by the noon train, was next
called to testify. After he had been
sworn Mr.. Powell asked:
''Do you know the prisoner?'
eyes. -
lefWhere is he?''
"There,'' said Carlson, and pointed
his hand directly at the prisoner, who
was sitting alonside of Mr. Perdue.
Emphasize his name,'' asked Mr..
Powell.
''To me his name is Frank Williams, "
said Carlson.
That was the point the prosecution de-
sired to establish, namely, that Frank
Williams and Martin Burke were one
and the same man. When Carlson en-
tered the witness box Burke
hung his head, and when the
witness pointed him out and
uttered the name, Frank Williams,
a deep blush suffused Burke's face. The
witness then proceeded to tell the story
of the renting of the Carlson cottage by
the prisoner.
Being examined by Mr.. Perdue
the witness said he had been taken out
into the country by Officer Collins be-
fore coming into court to see if he could
recognize anybody coming out Of the jail,
and he had recognized the prisoner. He
also had recognized the prisoner from
a group photographed in Chicago.
Il
with the witness it was o o'clock and Mr..
Powell expressed the supposition to his
lordship that he would not take any more
evidence until tomorrow
The judge replied that if the prosecu-
tion had any more evidence to put in
they had better do so at once, as he was
disposed to go on.
After brief consultation Mr. Powell
said: s'That' g our case YOUR lOrdsfiD -
This announcement was received with
satisfaction, and even Burke en-
tered sigh Of relief. Judge
Balm asked Mr.. Campbell if he
desired to put in any evidence in behalf
of Burke, and Campbell stated he did
not. Court then adjourned until 80
when the voluminous evidence was read
to the prisoner according to the statutes.
At the conclusion of the reading Burke
entered plea of not guilty. Argument
viii be heard tomorrow.

A meeting was held in the First Baptist

missionaries were received and accepted.
The reports show that the work is enlarg-

board, and action was taken to increase
the mission stations and similar opera
tons so as to completely occupy the whole
northern and northwestern part of the
state. Prominent Baptist preachers from
different parts of the state were present.

Got Their Ticket Late

SAN Francisco, CAL, July 9.-Le-
land Stanford and C. P. Huntington
hare decided to withdraw the Southern
Pacific railroad from Texas. A late law
in that state provided that no railroad
company operating roads within its
borders has any legal statue unless it
maintains its principal Office therein.
The Southern Pacific officials say they
could not do the latter therefore the
three Texas and Louisiana roads that
now form part of the Southern Pacific
main line to New Orleans will hereafter
be operated as district roads with sep
arate sets of officers. Julius Krutt-
schnitt as general manager of these roads
will remove from New Orleans to Hous-

kings, queens, princes, and princesses
are fond of music, just the same as or
binary people. Many OF these digni-
taries endeavor TO play some instru-
ment. Some are successful, and others
are not 50, although the courtiers do
not dare TO tell the latter SO. Queen
Victoria and her daughter Louise play
very well upon the organ. The prince
OF Wales plays the banjo fairly well.
The princess OF Wales il skillful

Prince Henry OF Prussia is a composer
aud performer on the violin and
piano. The beautiful empress Of Austria
plays splendidly on the 2ithern. The
empress OF Japan is very proficient on
the "koto, the national instrument,
which is II kind OF big zithern. Queen

Belgium's Hatless Monarch.

Leopold, king OF the Belgians, is sworn
foe of tobacco and an ardent supporter Of
the Belgian anti-tobacco league. He is, as
well, a man of ''simple and severe way OF
life" He rises early, breakfasts sparingly,
and a rare thing on the continent--takes
his morning tub with all an Erglishman's
fervor. His wide sympathies embrace veg
etarianism in their scope, and his most not
able passion, perhaps, is for going about
without hat. Whenever the weather is
suitable King Leopold goes abroad in his
garden as hatless as Adam, exulting in his
freedom from the conventionality of head
piece. He has some strange craze about
the wind $ action on his brain, and he puts
his craze in practice whenever possible.
In fact eccentricity of the intelligent kind
marked him for her own He is a lingust
of rare acquisition and is always deep in
the study OF some new language or other.
Music is one of his aversions, but the sister
art of painting finds in him an appreciative
and enthusiastic amateur. His face is
strong and intelligent, without being hand
some, and a beard OF appropriate regal
length sweeps his chest.--London Court

A Story of Edwin Forrest.

Edwin Forrest, one of the most ia
nous actors of the generation now
passing away had the notion that he
could not be frightened and one day he
said rs much in the presence OF a lion
tanner, named Driesbach This lion
tanner, now dead, was then rs famous
in his line as Mr.. Forrest was in the
theatrical line. Mr.. Driesbach invited
Mr. Forrest TO visit him one evening.
The latter accepted the invitation, and
at the house, after passing through a
long, dark hallway, he was asked by
Mr.. Diresbach into dark room.
Meanwhile Mr. Forrest had not thought
that his courage was being put to a
test. Suddenly, however, he felt some
thing touch his leg in the darkness,
and reaching down his hand touched
what he thought was II cats back,
which he gently stroked. A rasping
growl greeted the motion, and he saw
two frey eyeballs glaring at him.
Are you afraid Mr. Forrest?' asked
the lion-tamer, who was invisible in
the darkness. Mr.. Forrest replied,
Not bit, when the liOn-tamer said
something. and the growl deepened
and the back began To arch. Mr.. For
rest held out for few minutes, when
he exclaimed: Now let me out, you
scoundrel, or I'll break every bone in
your body"
The "lion king kept HIM there, and
he dare not move finger, while the
tiger kept rubbing against his leg.
Mr.. Forrest finally gave in, and prom
ised Driesbach complimentary sup
per if he would let him out.
Driesbach also told Of an adventure
in Baltimore: 1--WE were playing a
piece in which one of my tigers was
suddenly TO leap from above me as if TO
kill me. After it would jump upon me
we would roll around upon the floor.

err jumped over my head and was flying
for the pit when | caught him by the
tail and pulled him back. | needn't
tell you that room was made mighty
quickly in the pit when they saw the
animal coming. They rushed out pell
nell, yelling and screaming for me to
hold him." But Driesbach held on TO
the tigers tail until the theater was
empty.-New York Star.
