ing their annual picnic and outing to-

TROUSERS SAVED HIM.
PcriIOus Fail of an Electrician from
a Light Pole.


William keenan,, who is employed by
the Peoria Qn.) Electric company
has had miraculous escape from death
while at work putting new carbons in
street lamps. He assembled one of the
3O-foot poles and had just reached the
top, when by peculiar slip of the foot
he lost all hold on the pole. Both hands
and feet were freed. Realizing that a
fall of 30 feet to the brick pavement be-
low meant probable death, he uttered a
piercing and agonizing cry. The pas
sers-by, startled by the shrek, saw the
falling man, but were unable to render
any assistance. In falling, however,
Keenan's left trousers leg caught the
upturned point of one of the steps and
for an instant his fall was checked.
Then, before he could grasp the pole,
the cloth began to tear. The crowd
stood in breathless excitement as the

Ne Won vesterday's game.

We won yesterdays game.
But never mind that. It's the Bron-
chos we are worried about now. Will
we or will we not have baseball?
That's the question that is puzzling the
rooters.
Yesterdays action of the local asso-
citation in releasing Mike O'Connor was
unlocked for and came like a simeon
from a blue sky. 1t terrOriZed the
cranks and would not have been a
wise move to make in a public meeting.
Not for fear of any violence. But the
meeting would then and there cease
to exist.
The action of the local association
is said to be purely a business matter
in which dollars and dimes are con-
cerned. While the gentlemen who
have provided the necessary funds to
start the club off have perfect right
to guard their interests, still it is be-
leved that they have acted altogether
too hasty in the matter. They
claim that the club is not making
expenses. How do they know?
The season has just begun and
the Bronchos have thus far play
ed only four games at home. They
claim that the team has not made eX-
penses on the road. Certainly not.
Nobody expects a team to make any
money on the road. At home is where
the money is to come IN. They claim
that the Flower Battle game with
Austin brought in but $25Oi Now that's
the time to lock the gates.
What they expect to gain by let
ting Mike O'Connor go at this stage
of the game is beyond comprehension.
They will no doubt save the salary
that Mike would have got. O'Connor
got up the team for San Antonio and
put in his time to get the boys down
to work. After he has everything run
ming smoothly and the players in per-
feet harmony, ready to start a stretch
of eighteen games at home, the local
association calls him up to reduce his
salary. How does anybody know what
the attendance at these games would
be? The association should have
awaited results at home before making
such a move. Enthusiasm in the game
was greater than ever this season and
the cranks were figuring on the Bron-
chos taking at least twelve games in
the home series, which is now on.
1t may be noted here that the very
people who so severely criticised Man
ager Brophey last season are the ones
that have caused the disruption this
season. These are. all gentlemen Of
business integrity, who have done a
great deal to promote the interests of
San Antonio and who have San Anton
los interests at heart, but they have
certainly made a bungle of the base
ball business, and it will be some time
before San Antonio RECEIVERS from the
effect
The one topic in baseball circles
today is the release of Mike O'COnnor
The team is now without a head, and
it is feared it will go to pieces in very
short order. The players have lost
heart in their work, and it will not be
surprising to see the Bronchos drop to
the bottom before middle of next
week. All kinds of indignant remarks
are heard on the streets today regard
ing the action of the association.

It is estimated by competent authorities
that $50, 900 tons of water tumble over
Niagara every minute day and night.
Sometimes in the course Of a year 81
many us 400 bodies are tuken out Of the
Nile, from which the Egyptians obtain
their water supply.
The kennebec river Is said to pour
greater volume of water into the ocean
than any other river on the Atlantic or
gulf coast between St. John and the mouth
of the Mississippi.
It is stated by experts that Broad river, at
Anthony shoals, Georgia, has volume of
$4,000, 900 cubic feet Of water per minute,

Extraordinary qualities are possessed by
the river Tinto. in Spain. 1t hardens and
