Ho! FOR BASEBALL.

Manager O'Connor Is Here And The
Rioters Must Get To Work.
Mike O'Connor is here. This is good
news for the baseball cranks who have
been patiently awaiting his arrival
the past two weeks. 1t had been re-
ported several times that O'Connor was
in the city but he was never found.
Last night, however, the big manager
arrived, and his presence will be of
more Importance to San Antonio than
all the Queen LIS or Prince Khaven-
huller's that have ever been here. 1t
will mean that San Antonio will have
a baseball team, and O'Connor will
see that San Antonio gets one that will
be as fast as any in the Texas associa-
ton. He has hundreds of players to
pick from and will begin at once.
The sale of stock in the local asso-
citation as we'll as tickets has not been
going as fast as desired, which was
attributed to the absence of a man.
ager, many people believing that the
thing would fizZle out. But, now, with
O'Connor here, stock and tickets ought
to go lively. The club needs money
to advance to players, which will be
about $500. and railroad transportation
will be about $500. Uniforms will cost
about 500. and including other expen-
SEES, about $1,000 will be required to
start the club Off. 1t therefore be-
hooves the rooters to put their Shout
der to the wheel and get to work.
The park question will be settled
now without delay, and before the end
OF next week everybody will know
whether the park will be at San Pedro
springs, Jockey club grounds, River
side park or at any other site that has
been proposed.
Treasurer Ned Winstead requests
that all those having tickets make a
report to him Monday morning at the
Katy ticket office.
O'Connor will have sole control of the
team. He will sign the players, fine
or release them as he deems proper.

A Smoking Contest.

A tobacco-smoking contest was res
Gently held at st. Maurice, near Lille,
France. The conditions of the match
involved the smoking of an ounce and
three-quarters of tobacco In pipe.
There were so competitors, and the vic
tory fell to NJ. Daas, gentleman As
years of age, who consumed the speci-
fed quantity in exactly ID minutes,
while the second best was q smoker
who got through the ounce and three
quarters in 20 minutes. Considering
that there are many tobacconalians
who find one ounce of tobacco a fair
weeks allowance, NJ. Daas achieved a
very remarkable performance.-Cincin-

SHAKERS AND DOCTORS TALK
TOGETHER.

In his able work entitled "Longevi-
ty," published few years ago, DR..
John Gardner, of England, predicts
that vegetable agent will yet be
found that shall so retard those chang
es that bring about old age as to pro-
long human life much beyond it's pres
ent limit.
Acting, perhaps, upon the impulse
produced by this thought, many emil
nent physicians have called from time
to time upon the Shakers of Mt. Le-
banon to inquire of them concerning
the secrets of medicinal plants, in which
these sincere, simple-minded and God
fearing people are known to be wise
and skillful beyond all other men.
The Shakers told what they had
learned, and in return received from
their visitors much valuable Informal
ton about disease; which they at once
made practical use of. The most inn
portant point was that il a genuine
and certain remedy could be found for
indigestion and dyspepsia, and the all
mentS growing out of it, a long step
would be taken in the right direction.
Old age, said these physicians, begins
in the failure of the digestion, and so
do most diseases at any and allperiods
of life. The result of these consulta-
tions was the discovery by the Sha-
kers of the desired specific, made Who'll
ly from herbs, and now known as the
Shaker Digestive Cordial. Its action
is magical and worthy Of its origin.
Where there is distress after eating,
heartburn, headache, bad taste in the
mouth, biliousness, weakness and wea-
riness, cold hands and feet, aversion
to food, nervousness, or any other
symptom of dyspepsia. the Cordial will
prove its curative virtues. Behind
it is the reputation of a people who
have never defrauded or deceived
their fellow men.
In order to test whether this remedy
is adapted to your case, at practically
no cost, you may procure a trial bot
tie for ten cents of almost any drug

fiscal year was completed today by
the house committee on Indian Affairs
and reported to the house by Chair
man Sherman. The bill carries n to-
tai of $7,465,0 900, which is somewhat
less than the appropriation of the cur
rent year. The allowance for schools,
however, is increased 100000 ana
provision is made for starting n new
school at Chamberlain and Rapid

background or Droad, green leaves, max
ing 1t visible even in the darkness of
night, at which time the flowers are
open. 1t is interesting to compare the
times of opening and closing. The clos
ing hours are from seven to eight O. m,
and the opening about seven to eight
p. M, the times apparently depending
on atmospheric conditions. After the
cool fall weather sets in, the time of
blooming is irregular. The plant above
mentioned omitted to bloom one night,
and several days after the flowers might
be seen during the day, and since at all
times.
On two vines, 100 of the immense
flowers were recently counted, and this
amount is not limit. Its great bloom
ing ability is the more pronounced
when we learn the life of flower is
but the one night, and fresh set of
flowers is produced continuously day
after day.
The climbing is accomplished by the
twining of the young shoots. A wire
or stout string support, with a few
wooden strips TO bear the weight, is
alone necessary.-Meehan's Monthly.

The area of low pressure which ex-
tended over the central portion Of the
Missouri valley yesterday morning
has moved eastward and now over
lies the great lakes. This area is ac-
companied by higher temperatures.
The highest pressure Overlies the east

is central in Colorado. This area has
caused a slight fall in the tempera-

THE MOON FLOWER.
A Plant That VIII Delight the Senses of
o Garden Lover.

The worldly worth of anything is
usually measured by the amount of
qualification or pleasure it may afford.
Reasoning thus, the garden lover will
find it worth his while to hunt place
to put root or two of Ipomoea Bona
nox, the well-known moon flower, next
spring. 1t is only an annual; but plant
raised from cutting during the winter
afforded great deal of pleasure to the
writer in it's situation on an arbor. The
rapidity of its growth enables 1t to
soon cover a small arbor. Its large,
clear white. flowers stand out from the
