H0, FOR BASE BALL.
Laredo After the Scalp OF the In
vincible Santones.

vincible Santones.
All necessary arrangements are
now completed for the opening of
the base ball season in San An
tonic. The Laredo team will ar
rive over the International and
Great Northern, tomorrow morn
ing, preparatory to getting sweet
revenge on the San Antonio "ln-
vincibles," from the severe drub-
bling administered the Border City
team by the Alamo City lads, in
the fall of 81. Previous to that
year, however, Laredo enjoyed the
distinction of being able to defeat
San Antonio at almost every OPP
portunity, and the local was pie
for Laredo.
For the first time since the days
of the old Sunsets, in "a, will a
San Antonio team be seen in a
gray uniform. The trimmings of
the Sunsets uniform were green
stockings and belts, with parti
colored caps, while those of the
present will be black stockings,
belts, gray caps with two black
stripes, and the name "San Anto-
Mo" is black across the shirt fronts.
Attention of the management is
called to the fact that the patrons
want to see the visitors treated
with more courtesy than hereto
fore, on the ball field. Whoever
the umpire will be, he should pay
particular attention that all the
bases on the diamond-four in
number-are legally touched by
the base runners.
1t is not yet known whether or
not the pitcher will be placed in
the center of the diamond, but ac-
cording to the new rules that is
where he belongs, and the box
should be abolished and replaced
by pitchers plate.

A Historic EciiOsp.

From the l. n Ion 4 Telegraph.
In connection with Sundays total eclipse of
the sun, visible in South America. Spain. Italy,
Morocco and other portions of Africa, but not
in these northern ATTITUDES. it is the opinion of
the British Chronological and Astronomical As
sociation-whch concerns itself largely with
the verifcation of dates by means of astronom-
ical calculations this eclipse is the recur-
renee after long cycle OF ecl;pses, of one
which. it is said. took place in $50 b. c. AT
that date. owing to the sun becoming obscured,
there was a tumult in Nineveh and Shalma-
neser III took possession Of the throne. believing
that the gods were displeased with its then &C.
cupant. 1t was, of course, common thing in
those days to find pretexts for large changes in
the fact that the moon cut off the suns light.
1t may be interesting for visitors to the British
Museum to know that Shalmaneser III, who thus
adroitly took advantage of that eclipse. is the
gentleman whose deeds are recorded on the
black obelisk there.
