THE Texas onion crop having
been about finished it is now pos
sible to make a comparatively ac-
curate estimate of same. This has
been done, according to the San
Antonio Gazette, and the yield is
placed at 100000 pounds, or
1000 cars. The acreage is estimat-
ed at $4,000 acres and will net
growers. 100000, or $500 per
acre. This is not bad crop and
will doubtless prove an incentive
to increased acreage next season.
The small onion grower, who has
storage facilities, is holding his
crop until the Texas market is
clear of onions, and it is thought
the crop will then sell for four
cents. In this event the grower
who rushed his crop to market will
probably feel like kicking himself
a few times.

GREAT PITCHER
rs RETIRED
KID NICHOLS RELOCATED TO
MINORS
Famous Twirler Receives Major
League Death Warrant at Hands
OF Former omrade-Career
Was Meteoric

The release Of Charles (Kid) Nichols,
one of the Incompatible kid trium-
virates," comprising Nichols, Gleason
and Elberfeld, by Manager Duffy of the
Quakers probably means the passing of
one of the greatest pitchers the game
ever saw from major league baseball.
Nichols has been Internationally re-
leased by his old comrade of the sos,
Hughey Duffy. who was Charley's pal
for years on the old Boston club when
that team was far and away the best
in the country
What a wealth of baseball recollec-
tions must have passed through
Hughey's mind as he signed the major
league death warrant of his old crony.
1t must have caused Hughey pang as
he ushered the worlds champion pitcher
for ten long years from his midst.
The Kid, as Nichols has been known
ever since he first started to play ball,
was the star of the Boston club and
for twelve years no pitcher did better
work. Nichols underwent many ups
and downs before he finally progressed
to the point Of eing deemed worth a
place in the fastest company. He was
in Kansas City and Memphis and was
turned adrift several times before
Frank Selee saw in him the promise of
future greatness.
Nichols went with Boston in 1890 and
stayed there till 1902 when he was
granted his release so that he could ac-
cept the management of the Kansas
City club. After two seasons with that
club he yearned to be once more with
the fastest, and accepted an offer to
manage the 81! Louis Nationals.
But the berth with the Robisons was
sorry one for the great pitcher. Club
interference and the opposition of a
clique in the Cardinals soon made life
burden for Nick. He was the hardest
worker in the team and did more to
bring the Cardinals up to respectable
place in the Pulliam body than any
manager the Robinsons had dictated to
in years.
Every effort made by Nichols to
strengthen the outfit was baked by the
antagonism of the gang in the team,
who dislilxed Nichols. The Cardinals
went along with varying success for a
summer, until the spring series with the
Browns. McAleer's crowd have been
particularly fortunate with the Car
dinals, and this series was no excep-
tion. Nichols essayed to pitch the de-
Gliding game and held the Johnsonian
crew in check until the end of the ses-
sion, when two hits got by and the
team went up and Nichols lost.

HONOLULU. June 27.-La Paloma,
the Hawaiian entry i'm the ocean yacht
race, arrived here this morning. She
was enormously reported last night as
having been sighted, and some mem
bers of the reception committee and
other yachtsmen were at sea for hours,
remaining out until 2 o'clock this
morning, without finding her.
La Paloma sailed a distance of 2447
miles. Owing, it is believed, to de-
feet in her chronometer, she missed
the island yesterday. when she should
have arrived Had she done so she
would have won second place, as she
had a large time allowance.
After the second day at sea the crew
was kept almost constantly at work
bailing out the little vessel. Attempts
to use the pumps proved futile. The
cabin was flooded most of the time.
The small size of the yacht made
the trip one of considerable hazard.
