To the Daily LIGHT:
THE BATTLE OF THE ALAMO.

Cold was the day, yet they marshalled
The Red and the Green were found at
their post.
Bryan's Green ribbon men first landed in
port,
But the E. mendorf Reds by feint took
the fort.
The Comanches they hallooed, they
prau ced and they brayed,
But the Elmendorf veterans they enter
ed and stayed.
And soon their red flag was nailed to
the mastr
Like heroes they fought till the last vote
was cast.
Eighteen ninety five when they met for
the fray
Just nine days after old CandIemaS day.
The Green men were hopeful and groom
ed for the fray,
But the Elmendorf Reds triumphed
that day.
Never did men eight in ca more sacred
Than for rights and our liberties under
our laws.
We fought not with weapons but just
with our talents,
And like free men and brave men did
nght with our Oallot.
The Elmendorf parade was a glorious
success
Six thousand men all in citizens dress
Marched to the Alamo in battle array,
Citizens and taxpayers all drilled for the
fray.
Bryan's Green ribbon parade was a
sinister fake,
Some good men. you know, and many
hoodlums from over the state.
Our state speaker from Austin made a
woful mistake
BY absorbing our locals he helped poor
Bryan's defeat.
Now the wing of the Big Six is broken
and cold:
A good lesson to the ambition Of Bryan
the bold.
Your name is Dennis is the taxpayers
tune,
Goodbye to old Bexar and SWEEP San
Antoine.
Feb 18th, 1895. WALTER SCOTT.

UNFORTUNATE BY FIRE.
HOT SULPHUR WELLS AGAIN WIS.,
TIED BY THE DEMON.
A Total Loss Caused by an Explo-
sion From Unknown Causes.

After his first misfortune in the
burning of the Hot Sulphur Wells
bathing establishment about a
year ago, Mr.. McC. Shacklett had
his large dining hall and saloon
converted into a splendid bath
house, Office and residence and was
"getting on his feet" again, when
last night about 8 o'clock this
place, too, valued at $4,000, was
burned to the ground and the Oc-
cupants rendered temporarily
homeless.
The blaze was seen from the
eastern part of the city first and
some one, instead of telephoning
central alarm station to locate the
fire and give the proper alarm, sent
in an alarm from box 236, and
called the fire apparatus out to the
corner of East Commerce and Olive
streets, instead of to the Sulphur
Wells, which are located outside
the city limits, near the South
western asylum, on the continual
tion of South Presa street. Mount
ed Officers Mitchell and Parker
rode out to the Southern Pacific
railway crossing of Presa street,
but learned that their services were
not required and returned.
Mr.. Shacklett was sitting on his
front gallery, as customary, before
retiring, when he heard loud ex-
plosion in the interior of the build
ing and rushed in to learn the
cause. He was met by a wall of
flame and could not even proceed
to his office desk, where some
money and papers were kept. The
other occupants of the house es-
capped as best they could, and it is
not believed any one was injured.
The geological collection in cages
near the building, was saved by
the garden hose, Mr.. Shacklett
turning a stream of water on them
and preventing the destruction of
the many animals confined there
in.
The cause of the explosion is not
known. 1t is surmised, only, that
a new servant had mistakenly
filled a Kerosene lamp with gas
oline, and this ignited by the flame
when the lamp was lighted.
The building destroyed consisted
of a large One-story bathhouse and
office building and saloon and din
ing room, and two-story addi-
ton for sleeping rooms and the
dwelling of the attendants.
Chief Tobin drove toward the
fire as far as the corner of Mitchell
and Presa streets, and then turned
back, as the fire was located out of
the fire hydrant districts. The
firemen did not go out to the fire.
The building and contents were
insured in the Underwriters and
Hartford insurance companies for
$1,000.
