HOT WEATHER COMING.

As has often been said in the past the
spring time develops the average poet of
inexperienced years and mature desires.
SO it is with this season of the year. The
first warm days brings the weather
prophet to the front and he very cheer
fully predicts that which is in store for
suffering humanity. Now that the first
warm days are on us this ever energetic
weather prophet is to the front predicting
a summer of unusual warmth and long
duration. Here in Austin during the past
few days these weather prophets have
been pointing their index finger at the 10
mark ON the thermometer rs they very
wisely shook their heads and talked about
July and August. In addition to these
prophets, Farmer Dunn of the New York
weather service has already sent out no.
tice that this is to be II scorching summer.
He bases this prediction on the fact that
the spring has been unusually late and cold
and the temperature has been 541 de-
grees colder since January l than last
year. He argues further that the weather
always evens itself up before the season
closes, and n cold spring means a hot sum
mer.
II is to be hoped that all these gentle
men are in error, but as Texas generally
suffers from much heat ut this season it
would he just as well to get out some linen
busters and few large palm leaf fans

Chamberlain Pitched Fine Ball for San
Antonio While Lemon Gave a Rotten
Exhibition for Austin-Two New
Men Coming for Austin.
STANDING OF STATE CLUBS.

The pitcher Chamberlain, that Austin
let out at Galveston, and who begged to
come back but who had naturally done
nothing for the club, was signed by San
Antonio. and yesterday he pitched a
splendid game of ball for the tamale men
and won against Austin hands down. He
was very wild at first and gave three men
first on balls in the first two innings.
after that he settled down. and only six
hits were made off of him in the nine in
nings. But Lemon, for the home team,
gave school boys exhibition. He sent
the ball over the plate more like girl
than professional pitcher. With any
kind of hard hitting team opposed to
him, the cover would have ben knocked
off the ball in three innings. AS it was
he gave men bases on balls and then they
scored 10 hits off of him. A player should
be disciplined severely for such listless
work.
Allen played rotten ball at third, max
ing five errors. one of which was Il wild
throw to first, when he had plenty of time,
that let the runner get all the way home.
Boggiano did much better yesterday and
will make fine man at short stop. Jacks
made beautiful catch in the fifth inning
and fine assist, catching man off sec
Ond on the play. Van Dresser was up to
his good average, while st. Clair did not
have much to do. Old Reliable Schachern

of Chamberlain.
