A Peculiar Illness.

A negro man named Andrew
Sanders is now lying at the home
OF Shed Reddick, colored, on the
corner Of South and Water streets,
afflicted with a strange and unac-
countable malady. He is cow
boy and has been working on
ranch in Atascosa county, until he
came home few days ago, COM
planning Of feeling very i'll. After
his arrival he was seized with sud-
den commissions and vomiting.
During these spells, his nurses
found that he would spit out guam
titles Of live ants, which did not
live long after being elected.
Wednesday afternoon three spi-
ders made their appearance. All
these have been preserved In a
bottle and can be seen by anybody
who is incredulous. There ia nc
apparent explanation OF this un.
usual case, and little information
could be gained when the LIGHT
reporter called at the residence.

Don't Platter Yourself.

There are few little fellows
around the city hall with heads
about the size Of a five-cent cocoa
nut, who are shaking hands with
each other and running to the
mayor telling how hard they
worked for the bond election. The
fact is there was no fight against
them. The sensible taxpayers rec
ognized the fact that the debts of the
city should be paid and voted with
out any solicitation from self.
styled ward heelers. The only op.
position came from a few disap-
pointed place hunters.

coLoRED CELEBRATION.
Where the Afro-Americans Spent
the Day.

the Day.
Yesterday was more generally
celebrated by the colored people
of the city than ever before and
great crowds were seen at both the
Connor's grove picnic and at San
Pedro park. A large excursion by
the Baptists spent the day on the
Cebolo river, being transported by
the Gulf Shore railway, in very
comfortable style.
The celebration at Connor's
grove was given by the Sunday
schools, and was attended by
a very large number of our
Afro-Americans speeches were
made, songs sung and athletic
games contested. A big barbecue
was one Of the days best events,
to which everyone did full justice,
except those provident families
who carried we'll filed picnic bas-
kets.
The celebration at San Pedro
park was by no particular church
party, but was in charge of citizens
who had arranged a picnic and
ball for the day. This was also
well attended,

City Paw DaY.

The question OF when city pay
day will come around is being
agitated in all quarters.
1t is said pressure is being
brought to bear on the mayor to
induce him to borrow $4,000 from
the sewer fund, to be reimbursed
from the general revenues as col
lected, for this purpose, and it is
even said Treasurer Huff said a
Jews days ago that he was willing
that this should be done. Since
the bond election, however, it is
said he has decided that this could
not be done.
The mayor and aldermen will
very likely find way to pay of
within the next few days.

The Fourth of July has come and
gone for another year and San An

The Fourth, with its many celebra-

and rendered us more en- Enthusiastic.
The celebration was a great one.

course, carrying of the trophy for
giving the largest and most sue
cessful celebration of the day!
Their parade was splendid one,
participated in by thousands Of
citizens. At Riverside park the
day was devoted to oratory, music,
athletic games and dancing. Judge
Anton Adam read the Declaration
of Independence, Mr.. James Wahr.
enberger gave the address of the
day, while Henry E. Vernon, Carlos
Bee and Congressman w. HI. Grain
followed, in well prepared ora
tions.
After the speeches the athletic
games were contested for.
Carl Beck's fine military hand
rendered q splendid concert pro-
gram in the afternoon, which was
very much appreciated, as denoted
by the liberal applause accorded.
The street car service was taxed
to its utmost to transport the
crowds during the day. Toward
evening the service was totally in.
adequate, the cars being allowed
to become overloaded by the
people in very dangerous
way, and the electric power falling
to move the cars many times.
There were 10000 people on the
grounds, it is estimated, during
the day.
The utmost good order prevailed
and there was no rioting.
A good many private picnics
were noticed about the beautifully
shady grounds, LIGHT reporter

The Plumbing Inspector.

The plumbing inspector to be
appointed, probably at the next
meeting of the city council, is
causing good deal of agitation
among the builders OF the city, and
there are great many applicants
for the position. The Master
Plum bers' association wants an in
spector who is thoroughly compe-
tent, both practically and theoreti-
cally, and the association suggests
that competitive examination be
demanded, and that the individual
found to be the most competent be
elected without regard to what
class or faction he may belong.

Military Musical Patriotism.

To the Daily LIGHT:
II patriotism is fostered by
music of national character, as it
is asserted it is, the troops sta
toned at this Post have little cause
to complain of the over stimula-
ton of their patriotism by the
band, for were we depending upon
that organization for our know
lege OF our national music, our
acquaintance with the same would,
be very limited indeed.
Yesterday for the first time in a
year few national airs were played
at reveile and even those it Is pre-
sumed would be omitted were it.
not for an order directing that they
may be played. AS guard mount,
approached there was long odds
offered by the knowing ones that
national music would not be rem
dered for that ceremony and as
they were evidently acquainted
with the calibre of the bands patri-
otism they stood to win IL there
were any takers of their offer, for
luSbtdu VI thO hatiOhdi oAic Ca
pected by the uninitiated the
usual dose of song and dance music
and selection from Brian Borne
were given in their stead.
II the patriot who regulates the
wind jamming of the band
had one spark Of American
enthusiasm in his composition the
Fourth Of July was the occasion
for its appearance, but II that spark
was not in existence good taste
would at least dictate that national
airs be rendered on every possible
occasion throughout the day. Our
national airs may not be classical,
Wagnerian or Pullmanian, but
they are to the point and arouse a
sentiment on occasions OF this kind
that can not be engendered by
selections from German or Irish
opera. SERGEANT CASEY.

Buck Is a Hustler.

The man who beats Buck Hice
for alderman will let no grass
grow under his feet. Buck Hice Is
about the only alderman in the
past fifteen years in the Third
ward, that occasionally took ride
out in the suburbs, and talked
with the citizens, and saw what he
could do for them. When Buck Is
elected there will be one less mar
ket master. Let the taxpayers
pray.

A BRIEF ENGAGEMENT.
Willie Miles in the Role Of an Um-
pire-The Ball Game.

pire-The Ball Game.
Little Willie Miles made his
sdeboot" as an umpire at San
Pedro park yesterday afternoon
| in the presence of 1920 people. He
was billed for fifteen games here
but his engagement will be cancel
led for reasons best known to
the twelve hundred. His work
was no doubt the toughest
ever seen here, and he clever
ly succeeded in Transforming
an interesting exhibition of the
national game into a farce. But
Mr.. Miles did the best he could
and We'll have to forgive him for
his rankness. All that we ask OF
him is not to umpire another game
in San Antonio as long as he lives,
and it is hardly believed that he
will ever attempt 1t.
Excepting Miles umpiring, the
game was an exciting one, and the
Missionaries would have won 1t.
Schmidt and Land were in the
points for the locals against
Quigg and Foreith for tie visitors.
Schmidt pitched good game, al
though he was little wild, send
ing three men to base on balls and
hitting four with pitched balls.
Land is a good catcher, but no i'm
provement over Billie Hughes be-
hind the bat. He is better stick
or, however, than Billie. Quigg,
for the Senators, was undoubtedly
at his best. This lad pitched a
marvellous game in that he allowed
no base on balls and held the
Missionaries down to eight
hits. In the field the home
team excelled the visitors, max.
ing five errors to the visitors eight.
But the Missionaries errors were
more costly. In the third inning
the Missionaries made three errors,
which resulted in two runs. In the |
seventh Schmidt hit Reese with q |
pitched ball, and the latter scored |
on a stolen base and Kiernan's sim
gle to right. The score was then 5 |
to In favor of San Antonio. In the |
eighth a base on balls, q passed
ball and a single gave the visitors
two runs and the game, the score
being 6 to 5, San Antonio failing to |
score in the last inning.
San Antonio won the morning
game at Austin yesterday by
9 to 6. Other games yesterday re-
suited as follows: AT Houston
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. 16, Houston
8; at Galveston (afternoon) Gal
weston Is, Houston 5; at Fort Worth |
(morning)-Dallas 6, Fort Worth 3
at Dallas (afternoon)-Dallas Is.
Fort Worth 6.
There will be no game this after
noon. The second game of the
present series here with Austin |
will be played Saturday and the
series closes with Sundays game,
after which the Senators will not !
play here again this season.
About 200 rooters came over
from Austin to witness the game.
They were we'll supplied with
harm and made 1t lively for the
local rooters throughout the game.
The Austin crowd, will be over
again Sunday.

to have wonderful speed and those
who have seen him work speak OF
him in the highest terms.

ARMY NEWS.

REPORTED SPECIALLY FoB TIE LreHT.
Yesterday morning the Fifth
cavalry band aroused the garrison
before reveille, by playing several
national airs.
Lieutenant Stark, post surgeon,
expects to be ordered to Washing
ton for duty In the near future.
The new forage cap has not made
it's appearance at the post yet. It
appears as II it were not In favor.
One of the military convicts who.
was recently turned loose from the
military prison refused to evacuate
unless he was presented with five
dollars. He was given four days
rations and deposited by a guard
ten miles in the country, and in
formed that he could chit the
breeze" from that starting point.
Beyond firing national salute
at noon yesterday, nothing trans
pired to disturb the usual Sunday
quiet Of the post.
Private Coats, late Of troop b
Fifth cavalry, has enlisted for the,
infantry.
The city surely owes something
to this garrison and it's surround
ings where overa million dollars are
disbursed annually, but it is evil
dent the cita thinks otherwise as.
Is evidenced by the condition of the
streets in its immediate vicinity.
New Braunfels avenue all along
the west side of the Post is q dis
grace as is also Grayson street from
the upper to the lower garrison.
Those of us who were entitled to
vote gave our aid to our present
alderman in preference to his pre-
decessor, who went it alone, hoping .
something would be done with the
streets in this neighborhood, but
the only thing accomplished SO
far Is to root up the street he lives
upon himself which is q street car
street and seldom used except in
case of necessity by teams. 1t
would appear as II the street, gar
bage and sewer questions were
getting down the same level away
down below low water mark.
The horses of troop H, Fifth cav
airy, went out on the range for q
ten days vacation this morning.
Lieutenant Harry Clemant,
Twenty-second infantry, recently
promoted from the Fifth cavalry,
met with painful accident a few
days ago at Fort Assinaboine,
which resulted in the breaking Of
his collar bone upon the left side.
His arm is closely bandaged and he
is now doing well.
The military prison at Fort Leav-
enworth is now in the hands of the
department of justice.
The Army and Navy Journal
says that General Merritt has re.
commended the retirement. from
active service under the thirty
year act Of Captains Kirkman and
