THE NEW BASEBALL PARK.
Opening Saturday and Sunday In
augurates Park Equal to Best in
State.

Brownsville may well be proud of
the new enterprise that was opened
I within her gates Saturday afternoon
the baseball park-as it is one Of
the best made and most conveniently
arranged in the state
The park itself is as large as you
will find in an city. The location is
ideal, besides having all natural ad-
vantages in the way of sloping. The
fence surrounding it is eight feet
high, which gives those who either
cannot pay their way into either
grandstand or bleachers, or who do
not want to do so the privilege of
climbing up and taking high seat
far away from the game. The grand
stand is constructed in such shape
that everyone inside can see each
and every player to advantage and
it is pronounced by those who know
to be equally as good as any in the
state of Texas, being constructed
much better than those of either
San Antonio or Houston. The grand
stand and bleachers will seat at least
900 people.
Much praise is being bestowed up
on the promoters of this enterprise,
and they deserve hearty congratuIa-
tons upon the success which they
achieved at the opening OF the, ,nmajs~,

AS to the starch used there are two
kinds, the raw and the boiled. The lat

faction, though not a few laundresses
prefer the raw starch method for COL
lars, cuffs and shirt bosoms.
The amateur, however, will do well
to experiment first with the boiled
liquid. /
To make it mix together take two
tablespoonfuls of dry starch and about
half teacupful Of cold water until it
Is OF the consistency of cream. Then
add little more than one-half pint Of
boiling water if the starch is needed
for shirt bosoms or collars. More wa
ter is required If such articles as
skirts or petticoats are to be starched.
Starch must be quite hot for collars
and shirts, warm for the average
white garments and almost cold for
colored goods.
In order to prevent sticking to the
irons, little borax, small bit of tai
low candle or tiny lump of lard may
be added when mixing.
In starch1ng shirt have it quite
dry, then turn on the right side and
gather the parts to be stiffened In the
hand and dip in cold water, then put
into the hot starch, rubbing it well
into the shirt. Then clap the stiff
fened portions between the hands.
Remove with rag any supert1ucus
bits of starch and fold, taking care to
keep all the starched parts together,
otherwise the sleeves or body of the
shirt may become too stiff.
The shirt is laid front uppermost,
