TOGAS CHEAP IN TEXAS.
Expenditure of SCI Will Reflect
Senator Culberson.

An expenditure of ST has practically
reelected Senator Culberson to the upper
house of Congress from Texas. That
expense was necessary to have his name
placed on the official ballot in the demo-
cratic primaries to be held i'm a few days.
No other nomination will be placed on
the ballot, as the time for announcing a
candidacy has passed, and Mr.. Culber-
sons nomination seems assured. AS the
state legislature will be overwhelmingly
democratic. this means the return of Mr..
Culberson to the Senate.
He was not in his seat at all during
the session just closed. In December,
just after the session began, he suffered
a serious nervous breakdown, and since
then he has been in search of health,
most of the time at New York sani-
tarium.

STANDING OF THE CLUB.

The 18th Company defeated the 44th
Company yesterday by the score of
TO in the best game of the season
The pitching of Brostrom was of the
best. allowing only three hits. one a
scratch home run which bounded over the
second baseman's head and out of reach
OF the feiders. The second run for the
4ith was made i'm the NINTH when john
son walked, Howald sacrificed and John
son scored on Jarretts single.
Jarrett was Wild as a march hare. The
batting of Allen for the 18th was fea-
lure. His home run drive in the third
scored two runs, as Hardwich was walked
ahead of him.
Falandre's home run in the sixth was
the first nit made OFF Brostroms delivery
Brostrom received excellent support
throughout the game.

Becker of the Navy Yard team started
the twirlng for ST. Martins, but in the
sixth he weakened and was replaced by
Jack Leonard. Up until the time Becker
was taken from the game he had famed
twelve, allowed but three hits and hit
one. Quite record for SIX innings
Leonard punched four. hit one and passed
one in the two innings in which he
twirled.
Big Six brewer was very much in
the game with two hits and an errorless
record against him. The big fellow held
up both pitchers in very creditable style,
but his base throwing was a little off,
three men pilfering on him.
Monk Walters scored both of the win
ner's runs off base on balls. Out of twice
at bat Monk famed both times. 1t seemed
that limbaugh had the Sunday School
Leagues premier batter's goat.
Pierce Riddle played the initial sack
for the loser with rare form. He was
also the first man to get a hit of Becker
an opportune time. In the fifth he was
the first man up and he popped out a nice
double, on which he scored when Julien
errored Fegan's liner.
limbaugh hit three men, passed two
and made one wild pitch. Walters, who
scored the two runs, got on by base on
balls both times. He scored the first
run on the wild pitch and the second by
being forced by one of those hit
Becker and Leonard are new men or
the st. Martin lineup Manager Wilker-
son has also signed Smoke" Balzer and
Chunk" Wheatley. With such men as
those on the pitching staff the other
teams have something to howl about. but
the Manhattans have not been in the leas,
slow. They have signed Ferguson and
Lynch of the Departmental League. The
st. Paurs and teams in the second divi.
sion have also annexed new men.

Clipped in enough to subscribe for a
weeks information by wire from a well
known tipster in New York. For several
days he sent winners whose odds were
small. Saturday telegram came advis-
ing a heavy play on a three-year-old
named Warbler in the first race al
Sheepshead Bay. The horses past per-
formances was looked up and the in
formation was regarded SO favoEably that
every ''bellhop" and porter and a few
maids decided to play the good thing
The bets, which were of So and SIC
each. aggregating more than 500. it is
said, were placed with a handbook man
from the hosiery. There was great anx-
iety Saturday afternoon on the part OF
the ''bellhOps," porters and maids as to
the outcome of the race. Late i'm the
afternoon word was received at the hotel
that Warbler had won with odds of 20 to
chalked up against his chances. Every
boy and the others who had bet on the
good thing figured that they had won
enough to pay their expenses to Atlantic
City for time, and great preparations
were OcIuS IIIdue " tune TIE Trip. Every
thing went we'll until yesterday morning,
when one Of the boys went to the hand
bOokman to collect his winnings. The
proprietor of the saloon, it is said, re-
fused to pay the bets on q 2O-to-1 basis.
He wanted to compromise on a 7-tO-1
basis, and insisted that if the full
amounts of the winnings We're paid,
something between $1.S0O and $1,000, he
would become bankrupt, and. moreover,
be compelled to close up his place of
business.
Well" said the boy. you either pay
the full amount or we'll see that you
do But the threat, it is said, had no
effect, and up to a late hour last night
the wagers had not been paid.
The boy who received the telegram
from New York not only gave out it's
contents to everybody in the hotel who
worked with him, but sent the message
to various parts OF the city, and it is
believed that several other handbook
men, operating in the downtown dis
trict, got hit when Warbler flashed

called the score stood IL to 10 in favor of
the Baptist aggregation. Langdon was
the home team and as the full five In
nings were not played, the contest will
be played later in the season as post
poned game.
The pitching on both sides was a trifle
weak and this, coupled with the misplays,
which were numerous. due to the bad
condition of the grounds, was the cause
of the large score.
Langdon should have won yesterdays
game and probably would had 1t not been
for two ou;ield errors; Had either or
these balls been caught. the last half
of the fifth inning would have been play
ed Had this have happened the Episco-
pal team would have captured lucky
game.
NJ McGrath and John Humphrey did
the best hitting for their team yester-
day. The latter laced out two doubles
and a single. His single was clean
three-base clout but Umpire Hughes de-
clared him out for not touching the mid
die station. Out OF four trips TO the
plate McGrath secured a two-bagger
and two singles.
Phipps had an off day behind the bat.
Probably the slippery condition Of the
ball had something to do with IT. The
big backstop met one of Erskins swift
ones in the secon< inning and the ball
was found in the NSr barn. The clout
Melted him four bases.
Nine men batted for Anacosta in the
second inning and six runs resulted
These were scored with the assistance
of three errors and a pass to first. Only
three hits were made, home run, a
double and a single.
Eight extra base hits were registered in
Yesterdays game. Five of these were
made by members Of the AnacOstia team.
