Society women ran all the street cars

passengers with smiles. The streets were

and the day was turned into holiday.
A hundred of the best known women of
city took turns acting as conductors. in the
name of charity, and the fair conductors
considered it a jolly lark as much as
duty OF love.
The street car company had given tl-
Ladies' Union Aid Society the use of its
entire system for the day. The man who
had failed 10 buy his tickets in advance
was sorry. Under the spell OF the be-
witching conductors he did not have the
heart 10 ask for change.
If he handed 81 or a 5O-ceut piece to
the collector of wares it generally went
INTO the fluid for the common good, and
when the days business was figured up
1t was found that more than 5000 had
been gathered for the charitable work of
the Aid Society.
On the main lines each car had five women
conductors and chaperons, and with five
pairs of watchful eyes no fares escaped
and no passenger was carried by his street.

San Antonian Killed

Word was received in the city
last night that Pat Madden, a well
known railroad contractor, former
ly Of this city and of the Gulf
Shore, had been stabbed and killed
by DIR. Border, company physician
for the Denison and Northern.
From accounts, 1t seems that
trouble had been brewing for the
past two months between Madden
and Border, on account of Madden
refusing to endorse the doctors
bills for medical attention to Mad.

come to blows over the matter
From a message received last
night In this city it seems the old
feud was again brought up which
resulted in Madden being fatally
stabbed.

The Texas League Championship Season
Closed Yesterday.

The Texas League Championship Season
Closed Yesterday.
No more baseball for the next
six months and the rooters are sad.
They will be weeping briny tears
until the umpire's cheerful voice is
heard again next spring.
The players will soon leave fol-
/ their various homes, and will take
with them the best wishes OF the
San Antonio people. They have
been extolled as heroes, and de-
nounced as devils, but the tickle
baseball crank is ever ready to for
give and forget, and viii in the
future have nothing but kind
words for the men who wore a San
Antonio uniform.
Good bye, Bronchos, good bye
We Big Mike UConnor, Mike Law
renee, Percy Griffin, Red Herbert,
Bones Parvin, Charley Elsey, Matt
Stanley, George Keefe, Tim Nevin,
Clark and Weber. May we see
you again ne&b year.
The rooters will begin making
plans for '97. The first step is to
engage a manager, and Mike
O'Connor has shown that he ia the
right man in the right place.
Therefore, let's have O'Connor and
let him get the players.
The Bronchos wound up the sea-
son by defeating the Austin Sena-
tors three consecutive games. Sun
days game was hair-splitter, and
yesterday the Bronchos waltzed
away with the Senators by score
of Is to l.
San Antonio's misfortune to
drop two games at Austin spoiled
our chances Of playing for the final
championship with Houston. The
Bronchos, however, got revenge at
home and ruptured Austin's
chances for that honor. AS for
Houston and Galveston the general
opinion is that Houston purposely
threw games to Galveston in order
to get Galveston at the top, 80 that
they could play the saw-off series
between themselves. This was
done for geographical reasons more
than anything else, Galveston and
Houston being close together
thereby saving considerable rail
road fare.
The season OF 1916 was the most
successful ever experienced In Tex
as. San Antonio, although handi
capped by an incompetent man
ager the forepart Of the season, al
ways turned out good crowds
Dallas started in with a cracker
jack team, but also lacked a cap
able manager, and soon went I'M
der. The disastrous cyclone
knocked Sherman out and Paris
was forced out by the Withdrawal
of Denison. But for these obstaclel
the Texas league would have fin
ished the season with eight club
and a neat balance on the RICH
side of the ledger.
