Tore His Ear Off.

Saturday afternoon a large crowd
of football admirers repaired to
San Pedro springs and INDUCED in
a practice game, observing Rugby
rules. During the course of the
contest Byron King, an employee of
the Arkansas Pass Railway compa-
ny, while in a rush for the ball,
was run into by an opponent. His
left ear caught on the suspender of
the opposer, and in a squabble for
the ball, was torn half-off. Mr..
King was brought to the city in a
hack, as hurriedly as possible,
when a physician took several
stitches, placing the hanging ear in
the right place. The unfortunate
young man has suffered considera-
bly, since the accident, but is now
recovering, and will be out in a
short while.

THE AERoNAuT HURT.
Miss Robbins Seriously SpraIned
Her Ankle IN Her Leap
vastau1au

4OA [AhAAO AA AAOA AbOo-E
Yesterday.
Quite a crowd was attracted to
the San Pedro Springs yesterday
afternoon by the announcement
that Miss Estelle Robbins would
make another of her thrilling bal
loon ascensions and parachute
leaps. The crowd was not disap.
pointed either, notwithstanding
the Indictment weather for such an
exhibition and Miss Robbins per-
formed her feat as announced.
The large balloon was inflated
on the San Pedro Springs property
and at about 5 O'clock the signal
everybody let gom was sounded
and the little aeronaut made her
trip to the clouds. On the way
up she was pulled through the
branches of large tree near by
and sustained number OF
scratches on her arms. She did
not 60 as high as usual, owing to
the condition of the weather.
The balloon was carried west
ward and the leap was m ade in the
vicinity of North Flores street.
Miss Robbins alighted just north
of the residence of Gottleib Schu-
macher at No. 1909 North Flores
street. She dropped from the par
achute when about fifteen or twen-
ty feet from the ground, as she
feared she would be carried against
the house and receive injuries.
When she fell her foot struck a
fence and it was thought her leg
was broken. She was carried into
Mr.. Schumacher's residence and a
physician was summoned. DR..
Dukes responded, land on investiga-
ton found that the ankle was Sc
riously sprained.
Reports Immediately spread
through the streets that the woman
had her leg broken, and her recov-
cry was doubtful; that her hip
was broken, and it was even
reported that she was killed.
She will not be able to tread on
the injured foot for at least two
weeks.
There was much complaint
of the inadequate facilities of
that company in hauling pas.
sengers to and from the park.
The cars running to the park
have no trailers, and a car going to
the grounds may be caught about
every half hour. With better ia
cilities the crowds would be much
larger.

San Antonio Assured of One and

What was possibility a few
weeks ago will be an assured fact
in San Antonio railway circles.
The board of directors of the San
Antonio and Gulf Shore Railway
company held the first meeting in
this city on last Tuesday, January
2, William Davis was elected pres
ident and general superintendent,
j. Brown King treasurer and Robt.
E. Saddler secretary. A resolution
was adopted authorizing the issu-
ance of trust mortgage bonds,
in accordance with the laws of
Texas. President William Davis
is now in Gonzales county en- route
from Yoakum to San Antonio. He
is accompanied by the contractor,
expert attorney of the proposed
bond holders and other railway
men from Kansas City and Ohio.
Prices are already fixed, and so
soon as, plans and specifications
are completed engineers will leave
San Aneonio to locate the route.
The survey will begin about the
10th of this month. The first
contract will extend seventy-five
miles from point of beginning.
Railroad enthusiasm runs high all
along the line of route. The Kan
sas City men of the party are as
tonished that the fertile region of
Gonzales and other counties east
eff here should have been so long
without railroad.
The leading capitalists of San
Antonio are interested in the mat
ter.

keep in the open air as much as
possible, is the first and great com
mnndment that should be urged in
the spring.
During the winter we necessarily
live a more or less unnatural life, We
breathe the air yitiated by furnace
heat. with all the vital qualities baked
out Of it, and hence during the winter
we subject ourselves to a gradual pro-
cess of slow poisoning.
The antidote for this poisoning is
fresh air.
So this universal instinct TO get out
OF doors during the spring OF the year
is a natural instinct which, like all
natural instincts, has eause based on
the eternal condition of things, II is
natures effort to expel the storei-up
poison accumulated during the win
ter.
Man is naturally an open air ami
NAL, But climatic conditions render
open-air life sometimes impossible.
As soon, however, as these conditions
are removed the old primal instinct to
get out beneath the sky asserts itself,
and this instinct cannot be disregard
ed except at the peril of health.
Get out in the open air every day
and stay there as long as possible. 1t

through the ice and the bit of the axe
was embedded in the mud at the bot

But luck favored him ngain, for a
