Associated Press Special.
Wichita Falls. Texas, March 21.-
Thousands Of dollars damage to
property resulted when a terrific
wind storm swept through this sec
ton early last might.
Fire broke out here during the
storm, two dwellings being destroy
ed by the flames, and but for a
heavy down pour OF rain which i'm
mediately followed the heavy wind
it is possible that much damage
from fire would have resulted.
Harold, a small town on the Ft.
Worth and Denver railroad, reports
heavy wind of cyclonic nature
which threw the entire populace in
to a state Of panic.
The cyclone struck at 6 O'Clock,
tumbling over outhouses and sheds,
uprooting trees and telephone poles
and wrecking every frail structure
| in its path. Six houses were turned
over and the Denver depot was
wrecked to such an extent as to
| make its repair almost impossible.
| At Electra the storm was equally
severe. Forty oil derricks were
| blown over and numberless small
buildings were wrecked.
While no serious injuries result
| ed to persons in this section 1t is re
ported that there was some loss o.
life across the Oklahoma line.

like playing in an amateur contest.
Eppa Rixey. who has signed a con-
tract to join the Philadelphia National
League club, spent Saturday and part
OF yesterday here. The big fellow said
that he was confident he would make
good.
While Rixey is hardly in very good
shape right now, as he has done little
or nothing since Virginia ended it's
schedule. 1t will not take him long to
get in shape to do good work. If
Rixey comes up to expectations he will
probably be taking his regular turn
on the mound before long.
The Andrews club is booked to take
a ten-day trip through Virginia, and
will meet the majority of the indie
pendent semi professional clubs in that

BY H. c. BYRD.

All games in the amateur leagues may
be called off tomorrow afternoon. There
is a probability that the contests will be
postponed because Of the homecoming o1
the Nationals. There seems to be a gen
eral desire to have nothing interfere with
the ball game at American League Park
Whether or not the suggestion. which has
been made in the majority of the circuits
will be acted upon Is a question. There
is one drawback to it. though. The fac,
that the postponement Of games now will
undoubtedly cause a piling Of contest a,
the flag end of the schedule is the only
reason that has been advanced SO far
against the proposition.
The amateur commission will meet to-
night and the question will be preached
and decided There will be a great deal
of favorable comment in regard to honor
ing the advent of Washington's first win
ming ball club, and the main argument
that will be advanced Is the fact that the
manager of the professional organi-
cation has given it out as his intention
to set one day aside that amateur clubs
may be honored, the day to be known as

most games in the American League.
Howard Shanks. left fielder of the Ma
tionals, is going to make a lot of players
in that position sit up and take notice this
summer If he keeps up the grand work he
has been doing.-Chicago Post.
It is the opinion Of many that Chick
Gandil provided the balance necessary to
make the Nationals pennant contending

The spirit of '16 is all right, but the
Boston Nationals are said to be a hun

Catcher Archer's arm, it is said. is very
thin above the elbow. the result of hav-
ing been bitten by dog. But the con-
dition does not interfere in the least with
his superb throwing.
Barring lapse when he faced the
Browns, Jack Coombs has been going at
top form since his convalescence. He has
won his last three games, in which OPP
ponents' runs total three.
Detroit fans complain that constant
shifts in the lineup have Gemoralized the
team, and Jennings is not finding it as
pleasant to handle an in-and-out club as

The Browns are reinforcing themselves
with two new pitchers. Weilman of the
Blue Grass League and Napier of Texas.
Stovall is also dickering for Daley, an
outfielder of Los Angeles.
Jennings has experienced much the
same trouble as Harry Wolverton. In
juries and the poor showing of some Of
the regulars have forced both leaders to
shake up their teams repeatedly in the
hope Of getting winning combination.
Jake Stahl is making a big hit in the
