BASE BALL MEETING.

designations Accepted Changes
Made-Three New signers.
The Lone Star Base Ball club held
an important meeting last night at
their rooms at the Mitchell house and
several changes which it is thought
will be beneficial we're made.
George Darrah, the second baseman
resigned his position as field captain
and the place was filled by Arch
Thomas. A better selection could
not have been made and the club may
look for efficient service from Arch.
B. Spencer, Bob Hughston and
Charlie Shaffer rendered their resig-
nations from mem bership in the club
which we're accepted and their places
at once filed by Tom Rose, James
Watson and Tackaberry, which
makes the team much stronger than it
has ever been. The resignation of
the three above named men will ne.
cessitate some changes in the posi-
tons of the other players, which is
not yet decided upon, but it is thought
that Rose will hold down third base
He is however, good all around
player being an exceptionally power.
full batter and more than average
pitcher
Tackaberry will be remembered as
the tall shortstop who played SO ad
mirably with the Fort Worth club
last Sunday, whose beautiful short.
stops, accurate and swift throwing and
expert base running was the subjec,
of remark of all who witnessed the
game.
The BOYS have agreed to practice
thoroughly every day and some gooC
playing may be looked for in the nea
future.
The meeting altogether was strictly
business one and conducted with al
eye single to the best interests of tn
club, regardless of personal feelings
The boys meant business and did i
in good shape.

Moral: Don't sleep on your back,
particularly if you are troubled with
dyspepsia and nervousness, and use
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters to cure
these joint troubles. For sleepless-
ness, the inseparable attendant of
chronic dyspepsia, and its offspring as
we'll the Bitters is surprising rene
dy. The disordered stomach is the
progenitor of numberless harassing
symptoms, and the organs of thinking
is faithful reflector OF its disturb
ance, in which the liver and bowels
also share. If we are to restore quie-
tude to the brain and nervous system,
we must reinforce the stomach and
regulate the action of the digestive,
secretive and evacuative organs.
Prevent and remedy malaria, mac
tivity of the kidneys and bladder, de-
bility, heartburn, sickheadaches and la
grippe with this remedy, which has
received the unqualified sanction Of
eminent physicians.
