BASE BALL
Shreveport Will Be Represented by
Fast Team This Season

Gear is working hard on his 1900 team
and will no doubt give Shreveport a
fastteam. Most all of last years play
ers will report for duty, and there will
also be several new men to be given try
outs. A good pitching staff is assured
with such men as Reiger, Bodies, Cy
Watt and Anderson. Arnold will in all
probability be back on first where he
did such fine work last season. Clare
will hold down short, while Harry,
Hoffman will be seen again on third
where he did excellent work for the
team last season until he was taken sick
with typhoid fever. He will be in flne
shape this season and will again prove a
favorite. Second base is in doubt with
sveral youngsters eager for a tryout.
The outfeld will be composed Of Gear,
Gray, Winter and Thebo, all to we'll
known to need mention, while behind
the bat the old reliable Petit and Hid
ing will work The outlook for sue
cessful season is bright one, and Gear
intends to give Shreveport team they
can boast of. It is up to the fans now
to patronizc the game more than they
did last season if they wish to have
league base ball here. Several cities are
anxious to get in the Texas League.
Ill the players will report by March IS.

A NEW DISCOVERY.

made the discovery that the Pittsburg
club does not pay all Of Hans Wagner
salary. The writer says he has found
that Dreyfuss put it up to the National
league that Wagner is such big draw
ing card in every city that the league
should foot a part of the bill. And then
saws the writer: This forces the league
to take measures to induce Honus to get
into the game. and it pays part OF his

PATRIOTS PRESENT.
Mr.. Steele and Colonel Zuber
Address LEGISLATORS.

Austin, Feb. 13.-COuple OF patriots
appeared in the house Friday These
veterans are A!pilonso Steele of Mexia
the last survivor of the battle of San
Jacinto, and Colone. w P. Zuber of
Austin, one of the two last survivors
Of the Army of the ..:epublic at San
Jacinto. They appeared before both
houses of the legislature Friday by
special request and addressed the
body. The ancient warriors and sur.
vivOrs of the heroic time which made
the Texas OF today possible were
greeted with great enthusiasm. AS
evidence of the consideration in which
they are held the senate appropriated
5000 for large painting of Mr. Steele
to be executed, and the house provided
for the creation of suitable gold mad
ais, one each for the two distinguished
veterans. and for joint photograph
to be made Of them.
Both were escorted to the speakers
stand and introduced by Representa-
tive Hill of Denton in patriotic terms.
Amid great cheering Mr.. Steele, who
is ninety-two years old, but remarka-
bly, well preserved, arose. and standing
erect, said: Il am sorry l can't make
a speech. l hope you won't expect
one. It's thing I've never done, and
l cant make a speech. l shall tell you
in simple way of some of the early
days" He then recounted the events
leading to the battle of San Jacinto;
gave short description of the maneu-
vers and tactics by which the opposing
forces came in battle position and gave
summary OF the battle proper. He
told the story of Deaf Smiths cutting
Vincent bridge and of the capture of
Santa Anna.
A few moments after Mr.. Steele be-
began talking the librarian brought up
from the state library the Mexican
battle flag captured at San Jacinto,
and draped it across the speakers
stand. Renewed applause filled the
hall at the sight of the last survivor
of the battle, of which all Texans are
proud, his hands resting upon the
very flag which he had helped wrest
from the enemy seventy-three years
ago, addressing the representatives of
the people of Texas and telling them
how the flag was captured.
Colonel Zuber then spoke He is
nine4y-nine. With one hand upon the
head of Mr. Steele and the other upon
the captured Mexican emblem, Colonel
Zuber said his comrade and himself
appreciated the compliments bestow-
ed.
You know" he said, I'VE two look
back upon all the people of Texas as
our children" and at that the cheering
became more vigorous than before.
While Mr.. Zuber is one of the two
remaining survivors of the Army of
San Jacinto. he was not in the battle.
Mr.. Steele. who is now the sole surviv-
or of the battle now alive, declared
that it was not Mr.. Zuber's fault that
he was not in the fight. Mr.. Zuber,
he said, cried to go, but his captain
would not permit him to do SO, as his
gun was out of order.
At the close of the scenes in the
| house Mr.. Steele said he would like
to know what would be done for the
San JacintO battlefield.
Representative Hill, in reply, de-
clared that the Texas legislature would
see to it that the battlefield was prop
| erly cared for.
