uou.top :. san Antonio 1,

There IVES very, very slim crowd at
League park yesterday afternoon to greet tho
Bufialoes on the return from trip on the
read. The reason for such poor attendance at
the opening game with San Antonio can be
assigned to tho fact that the club had been
playing very inferior article of ball while
away from home, winning only two out of
zine games played. They got in the game,
however yesterday, winning from the Bron-
chos by the score of to l. and their work
was surprise to the few who went out to
the game. The locals showed lots of snap aud
vim from the very start aud played a good
game all around, fielding well Uhe four errors
charged up to them counting nothing in the
score) and hitting the ball hard. The game
was fast all the way through and II the Hous-
ton ciuo will commune TO give suun ex-
hlpition of baseball they did yesterday
the patronage will materially increase and
reach that point which GOOD playing deserves.
Cloweli was IN the box for houston and he
WIS very effective, keeping the few hits that
tne San Antonio club got of of his delivery
well scattered. The Buualoes punched tneir
hits on lsaacs and four OF the seven runs
tLey made were earned Up to the eighth in-
n.ng the visitors played an errorless game.

New York. May 1.-THE date OF the Fltz-
simmons Jefries tight before the coney Island
Athletic club has been hxed as June o. and
George siler of Chicago as referee. The Sc
lection Of Decoration day as the date for the
big hght aroused so much indignation that
the club managers met today to discuss the
situation. II was agreed that Decoration day
is usually a big sporting day. when there
arc many events Of interest scheduled and
that to hold the fight on that day would mean
a smaller attendance and smaller gate re-
cepts 1t was finally decided to postpone the
fight until June Q. The arrangement was a
satisfactory one to all concerned
The tight is to be twenty-five rounds and
will begin at noon the pictures of the mill
