TIMELY ADVICE.
Anent the Proposed Baseball Stock
Company For 1896.

AuenC Cne PROPOSED odSeUdiI otOch
Company For 1896.
Interest in the meeting to be
held in the Belknap armory Satur-
day night for the purpose of organ
izing a baseball stock company has
been increasing since the an
nouncement was made yester-
day. Baseball has gained more
friends In San Antonio the present
season than any previous time
in its history. The cause Of this
must be attributed to the fact that
it has been demonstrated that
baseball is played on its merits,
and is an honest, exhilarating
sport, hence its fame as the nation
al game of the United States.
Now that the game has at last
taken root in San Antonio, and the
opportunity is at hand to place a
good team in this city next season,
little advice to the local pro-
jectors would not go amiss.
Immediately after the stock
company has been formed the
first matter that should be attend
ed to Is to secure a first class
minor league manager, with repu-
tation, something on the order OF
j. J. McCloskey, Ted Sullivan,
Abner Powell ct al. AS it is hard
ly within the range Of possibilities
to secure any OF these, all of whom
no doub bit have their beds feathered
for next season, it would not be a
waste OF time to consult them, by
wire or mail, regarding an expert
enced man for this city. These
gentlemen are in touch with the
entir baseball world, and would
take pleasure in recommending
some one, whom, they know, would
have a team that would represent
San Antonio in a creditable ma nnel
and at no exorbitant figures, either
San Antonio ought to be able to sup
port a $l,00G-a.month team easily
and with an experienced man tC
engage and handle the players, one

price. This city needs manager
who will secure the players in the
beginning whom he intends to keel
throughout the season. This mat
ter of experimenting after the sea
SON has begun is the height Of folly
p San Antonio's experimental ca
reer this season ought to serve a
an object lesson. Dallying will
cheap, inferior players has run VI
San Antonio's expense accoun
higher than q $l,200-team would
since the first pay day, April L
last. 1t is, therefore, to be hope'
: that San Antonio will this tim
, have baseball manager, who is
manager, which we have, unfortu
nately, not as yet been able to say

The official home of Mississippi,

A NEBRASKA HORROR
Suicide of John Harris and His
Wife-Driven to it by Star
walton.

Paxton, Neb., Jan. 14.-As a
result of restitution and their help
less situation, among hundreds of
starving people, John Harris and
his wife, living a few miles in the
county, committed suicide yester-
day, and their young baby's body
was found with its parents a few
hours later. The coroner was at
once notified and repaired to the
place Immediately, when horrlty-
ing state of affairs was discovered.
Mrs. Harris was lying on the
bed, entirely nude, with her throat
cut from ear to ear and the bed
clothing saturated with blood. John
Harris, the husband, was found
lying on the floor near the foot OF
the bed with his throat cut. AT
the coroner's inquest held this
morning at the home of the dead
couple, the jury found that they
came 10 thei: death by their own
hands, razor being used to COM
NIT the deed.
Mrs. H had taken her own life.
She had expired in the throes of
childbirth. After cutting her own
Harris had crawled all over the
house, and outside a few feet from
the door, coming back into the
house on his hands and knees. He
had evidently died trying to open
the door again, his arm being
stretched to reach the door handle.
The couple had only moved to
their present place a month ago.
The house in which they lived was
a sod dugout, situated seven miles
south Of here. The surroundings
Of the place went to show that the
pair were in very poor circumstan-
ces-in fact it looked as if starva-
ton was staring them in the face.
In searching the house, the Coro-
ner could not find anything that
would indicate that the wife had
been prepared for the birth Of her
child. No explanation can be Civ
en- for the deed, except that she
was soon to become mothar and
was on the verge of starvation and
suffering. The following letter
was found written by the husband
in cieor and steady hand:
Dear Old Parents: We have
decided to end our lives together.
Ida took SICK before daylight, and
it is now 7 o'clock. Ida cut her
throat and | cut mine. | would
give the world to see my poor old
father and mother. 1t seems like
a year since | saw any Of my
folks
The motive for their deed was
probably their restitution. AL
though aid could have been had
for the asking, it is supposed they
were to proud to beg. The jury's
verdict of suicide is generally ac-
cepted as correct. The parents of
the couple arrived this morning
and will take the bodies to Mich
OILS. Neb., for interment.
Paxton is typical Western Ne
braska village in the eastern part
OF Keith county, The country
around about has produced good
crops III times past, and will I'M
doubted do SO again, but the fail
ure Of 1898 and was almost COM
plete, and the situation of the peo-
pie is pitable.
Among the different families of
Keith county now in state Of des-
there are between 500 and
600 little children. The pplica-
tons for aid disclose the most pitt
tul condition of affairs and the
commissioners confess their ina
blllty to cope with the situation.

EX-GOVERNOR BOIES TALKS.
Des Moines, Ia, June 19.-Ex- Governor
Horace Boies has written a letter to G.
e. Lewis, advocating free and unlimited
coinage of silver independent of the action
of any other government. He says the
most dangerous enemies of silver are
those who, while claiming to want BIZ
metallism, demand it under such circum-

realized. He proposed that this country
take up it's other forms of paper money,
with an increased issue Of silver cerl. fl

be the full value their face indicates.
