PATRONIZE HOME INDUSTRY.

Merchants and the general public
who advocate these principles would
do well to put them in practice, when
buying Piano or an Organ.
We have been established in Texas
80 years; we employ more hands and
pay more salaries than all dealers in
our line, in Texas, combined. We han
die larger line Of Pianos and Or
gans and carry larger stock, in diff
ferent woods and of different makes,
than all dealers in our line in Texas
combined.
We sell Pianos and Organs as low
for cash and on as small payments,
withous notes, as any house north
or south. Why then are we not en-
titled to your patronage.
A call at our wareroomS before
thinking of going elsewhere, will in
sure us your order and you'll have the
satisfaction of knowing you left your
money at home, where you in turn
will reap the benefit Of it.

There was no game at Arsenal Park yes

There was no game at Arsenal Park yes
terday afternoon, the regular artillery dri'l
making 1t necessary to take Il day off
The game tliis afternoon will be between
the Capitals and Young Stars, both new
teams in the league. As these teams are
considered to be well mp in the art OF play
ing the national game, their meeting will
no doubt furnish some excellent sport.
The umpires will be Bland and Hilton.
There was very important meeting OF
the league last evening, at which every
club was represented except the George
town Eagles. The principal business trans
acted was that looking to securing an up
town inciosed park. The directors have
every reason to believe that grounds will
be secured in a few days, as negotiations
are now pending for park which is very
accessible to every team in The league.
The protested games were also decided
by tile board, the first one being the
Zephyr-Cliffburn postponed game. After
due consideration the board decided that
the game should remain to the credit OF the
Clifrburns, as the officials of the league
consider that sufficient notice was served
on the two teams by the two announce
ments OF the game. This decision will not
affect the standing OF either club.
The second protested game. between
the Georgetown Eagles and the Eastern
board, and that is to sustain the decision of
the umpire behind the bat in his decision
at the home plate and give the game to the
Buds for the refusal of the Eagles to CON
tiDue to play when oriered by the home
plate umpire, who, according TO the rules,
is IN charge of the game, the umpire for
the bases having nothing to do hut give
decisions on first. second and third bases.
As this game had not been credited to either
side the decision gives the Buds another
game won and the Eagles one more game
| lost.
The last protested game is something
similar to the second one, in that the op-
posing team, the Zephyrs, when the ques-
| tioD arose as TO the accuracy of the score,
| and being allowed five minutes to resume
| palyiDg, refused to do so. Whereupon the
umpire awarded the game to the Buds
, The representative of the Zephyrs at the
meeting last night said he did not think
| his side should be given the game, but
| that they should be made to play il over.
1t should bc understood that clubs must
play the game when ordered by the um-
| pire.
II clubs are dissatisfied with anything
| that occurs on the field, finish the game
under protest, if necessary, but finish it
| and then bring the matter to the atten-
| tion OF the League, where all teams will
be accorded a respectful hearing and a
| just decision, in Keeping with the rules
| governing baseball playing.
| The applications OF the Hamiltons and
| Young Districts Were received for meIi-
bership in the League, and If the man.

Buchanan sent three men to base on balls
in tile first inning. and with two hits the
Commissioners scored five runs.
After two men were on bases in the first
inning Dickinson protested against Mr.. Ber-
nard's umpiring because lie belongs to the
Bureau of Engraving and Printing team, and
lie was removed.
Buchanan. in sliding home in the first
inning. cut his hand very badly, and after
ward had finger broken in center field by
high fly ball. This accounts for his two
errors in the field.
