BASE BAIL MATTERS.

Endeavors TO Secure a Representa-
tive Team IN san Antonio.
The San Antonio base ball team
lett this morning for Waco and thi.
afternoon will carry on the contes
with the boys in that city. A grea
deal of adverse criticism has
been INDUCED in the past few days al
the expense of the home team. Oh
course, it cannot be denied that the
club has not come up 10 expectations
as yet, but there are many causes to
ascribe this to-
Every enthusiast will admit that
the team has had more than its share
of ill-luck, and IL is well known that
luck is potent factor in baseball.
Red Armstrong; enforced departure,
without doubt, has also caused the
loss of more than one game, and the
short time In which the team, as q
whole, was organized, initiated
greatly against it.
Manager Sylvester is q hard work
ing and conscientious player, and the
poor showing of the team is through
no fault of his. The principal cause
is that he is handicapped by lack of
funds. In every city the local club,
is assisted financially by prominent
firms, as a club is recognized as one

city. San: Antonio: is the largest
and most prosperous city In
Texas, and can easily support
q first-class club. Whether this city
will have one, now rests entirely upon
the citizens. The management has
decided to open subscription list, for
the purpose of considerably strength.
ening the team. The money so col
lected is not TO be used unless it lie
found necessary, in case that the re-
ceipts at the gate are found to be in.
adequate to meet the demands.
The management confidently ex.
poets to raise about $3.50 in this man
ner. More than this amount was
raised in Houston, Galveston and
Waco, and there is no reason why
this .csnnot be raised. The team now
has been strengthened by the addition
of Donohue and Stouch, and it will be
further so at every opportunity. until
1t will be at least as strong as any In
the league. San Antonio certainly
wants q strong base ball club, and
this is the only way that this city can
secure club, that is worthy of 1t.

The Guiberson Fire.

The statement made in the LIGHT
of the 9th instant, regarding the con.
troversy between the Alamo Fire
Insurance company and Mr.. G. Shack
lett over the payment of the policies
held by Mrs. Guiberson, was obtained
by the reporter from officers OF the
company.
The item gives the insurance COM
psny's side of the controversy, and
casts reflections upon Mrs. Guiberson,
in intimstiDg that the house had been
set on fire to secure the insurance.
The FACTS are that the house was but
partially insured, and the loss to the
owner, Mr.. Shacklett. was consid err
able, but the other companies prompt
ly paid the amount of the insurance.
Mrs. Guiberson was insured with
the Alamo Insurance company, and
the adiuster made careful inventory
of the property claimed to be de-
stroyed and found that it amounted
TO some 81 900, and allowed the
amount of insurance, Mr.. Shacklett
secured the assignment of Mrs.
Guiberson's policies in payment of .
debt, and demanded the insurance;
the company claimed the go days de.
lay for investigation; the 80 days had
expired and the company still refused
to settle, saying they desired to fur
ther investigate the cause of the fire,
and Mr.. Shacklett brought suit.
The LIGHT is convinced that the
intimations made in the statement
published are without foundation,
and did injustice to both Mr.. Shack
lett and Mrs. Guiberson.

Bachelors Luck.

the other day. He was coming to town
and had to cross the big coulee. Not
thinking the water so deep he drove
his mule team in, thinking he could
easily ford the coulee, but he had not
gone far before the mules commenced
10 swim and the wagon box was lifted
off the wheels. He was compelled to
let the mules 90, and he succeeded in
getting ashore; but the mules and the
box were on the other side so he con-
cluded to swim across. For conyen-
fence sake, he took off his clothes and
swan to the place whore the box
was lodged. BY climbing up into the
box IL tore loose from the bank and

The Notorious Kid.

TOMBSTONE, Oct. 13.-News of the kill
ing of man by Kid and another Indian
in the Swisshelm mountains yesterday
was brought to town last night. Two
wood-choppers at Moore's camp had lost
their horses and started out to find
them. They saw two Indians some dis
tance away, and, thinking they were
scouts, one of them started toward them
to inquire if they had seen anything of
the stock. When within few rods of
them the Indians stepped behind a rock,
and in less than ten seconds the unfor-
tunate man was lying on the ground
with bullet through his heart. His
companion witnessed the deed and ran
back to camp and told his comrades.
After much persuasion he consented to
/ go to the scene with q posse. They
found the dead body with the head
nearly beaten off with rocks which lay
near by. From description given by
the survivor it is positive that the
Apache who did the killing is no other
than the notorious Kid. After the kill
| ing they rounded up about 80 horses and
| went toward Sonora.

LOST THE USE OF ONE LUNG.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13-The impression
is general tonight that Mrs. Harrison's
condition becomes graver with the pass
ing of every hour. The day has been
full of gloom to the White House family,
and the shadow has even sunk deeper.
A member of the household said today
that it was not expected that Mrs. Har-
rison would see another Sunday, and
that she was still alive was simply re-
markable. Her weakness since Sunday
has been extreme, and, if possible, has
increased today. The thread of life is
kept up by stimulating nourishment
every little while. Today at intervals
of three hours she was gwen a raw egg
fixed up in a palatable way with little
wine. Eggs and malt extract are about
the only things she can take. The doc
tors visit last night was between 7 and s
O'Clock, and before o'clock the massage
treatment was given the patient. Her
weakness is so great that it is not thought
possible she can not survive any new
complication, no matter how, slight.
The president went out for his usual
drive yesterday afternoon, remaining
away an hour. DIR. Gardner, Mrs. Har-
rison's physician, frankly acknowledged
that Mrs. Harrison is in a very precari
Gus condition. He is equally frank in
saying that the distinguished patient is
losing rather than gaining ground.
continuing, he said: '.Her condition
fuctuates from day TO day. That, how
ever, is not unusual in diseases of this
character. She may live for couple of
months. She slept good part of the
day, but she has lost the use of one lung
and the other is involved to such an ex-
tent that it renders her condition criti-
cal. In my opinion, however, there is
no immediate danger of fatal termi-
nation. There is liable to be, at any
time, an effusion of fluid in the cavity
of the pleura. This has already taken
place once and is liable to occur again.
