BASEBALL BREVITIEs.

According to special from Gal
weston in today's LIGHT, several
new players have been signed for
the San Antonio baseball team for
the coming season. Among other
players to be signed are Jack
Thornton, Harry Caulifiower, Will
Douglass, Pat Callaghan, Frank
Parrion, Tom Clifford and Norris
O'Neal. All these are good men,
and IL they are landed San Antonio
will be strictly in it.
Catcher Emmett Rogers wants to
play in the San Antonio team.
Emmett was favorite in San An
tonic in 1913.
The color of the uniform is to be
changed from maroon and black
to dark green and white. While
dark green may be acceptable, it
is hardly likely that the cranks
would approve Of white. Anything
but white.
The park question has not yet
been decided. The Jockey club
people have made a very good offer,
and the San Pedro park people say
they will do anything within rea-
son. This matter will probably be
settled when Manager Brophey
arrives, this week.
Every day the cranks are asking
for baseball information. They
hold up the newspaper boys, three
and four in a bunch, and ask,
"What's the latest?"

on Thursday from Cardinal Satolli,
asking il it would be possible,
leaving New Orleans Thursday,
February 20, to stop at Galveston

originally to leave New Orleans
on Thursday, February 20, and
reach San Antonio on Saturday in
order to officiate on Sunday, and
remain over Monday, leaving on
Tuesday for Santa Fe. His recent
letter exhibits the cardinals visit

can hardly, with propriety,
slight Bishop Gallagher, of
Galveston. In all probability he
will leave New Orleans Friday

Art in Paris,

The art season in Paris is Just
becoming active. The mem
bers of the rival salons have held
their annual meetings to count up
the cost Of the past and prepare
for the future campaign. Whilst
the Palais de PIndustrs body can
still show fair capital in hand,
the new association Of the Champ
de Mars has no debts but no profits
to score. Both societies are very
anxious lest their present quarters
should be appropriated for the 1900
exhibition, and another cause OF
complaint is the increase OF photo.
graphy. which too often takes the
place OF the brush. The Luxem.
bourg has now reopened after it's
annual shuffling of pictures and
statues to admit the purchases
made by the state during the year.
