Ex-Gov. Alvin Saunders of Nebraska,
president of the Trans-Mississippi exposi-
tion, was in the city yesterday. Although
the governor is 83 years old he is as spry
as most men of 50 and he has advanced
ideas regarding the live issues of the day.
He has been, in Texas several weeks get-
ting rid of an attack of the grip, building
up his health and, incidentally, saying a
word here or there where it would do the
most good, for the Trans-Mississippi ex-
position. The old gentleman does not
overlook any chances to impress those he
meets with the benefit all the west coun-
try is going to derive from this great show

most gratifying?:assurance of support of
the big project. iT’he ex-governor was the

IF YOU ARE A FARMER
Messrs. J. C. Hamlen & Co., stave ex-
porters of Portland, Me., who also have
a branch at Little Rock, have been figur-
ing on sending a portion of their product
through this port, provided it could be
done upon a parity with New Orleans.
They have announced that they will im-
mediately ship 14 cars of staves from Lit-
tle Rock to go to Liverpool on the steam-
ship Inventor, satisfactory arrangements
having been made with the shipping
agents, Messrs. Wm. Parr & Co., and with
the Galveston wharf company. They also
announce that they will continue to make
shipments through this port as soon as
their present engagements at New Or-
leans have expired.
Mr. Gus Reymershoffer has been in cor-
respondence with the Hamlens for some
time concerning the sale of lumber
abroad, and has obtained much valuable
information on that subject.

BASE BALL NOTES.
The Galvestons wore their new uniforms
for the first time yesterday. Whoever se-
lected the suits deserves credit. No neater
uniform has ever been seen in the Texas
league. The gray and maroon cloth makes
a pretty combination and the red and
white striped caps gives just the requisite
gay and debonair touch to the outfit. The
suits looked so neat and new that it
seemed very “disright” for the dudes to
go and get them dusty and dirty by slid-
ing into base on their “tummicks.”
Dermody appreciates what a precious
lot of precocious pencil pushers he will
have in the press box this year, instruct-
ing him how to conduct his affairs and
teaching Huston and his janizaries how
to play the game. In order that the sun
will not tarnish the complexions of the
reporters Dermody has rigged up an ad-
justable awning in front of the reporters’
cage. This awning has a, Waltham move-
ment. is of stem winding proclivities and
is so loud in color that when you look at
it you can’t hear yourself think. The
first time one of Herr Murray’s misfit
curves stikes that giddy awning there’s
likely to be woe in the land of the sand
piper. ,• I
Talk about your anti-fat medicines,
they’re not in it with Dermody’s discovery.
Anyone who is oppressed- with a super-
abundance of fat can have it fried, out
of him by viewing a game from the‘. hew
bleacheries that have been put up in'the
east end of the base ball park. As soon as
the full merits of the new “toaster” are
learned there will undoubtedly be great
crowds of fat people flocking out t-o the
game to get rid of their curves.
Next Saturday the season opens. If tfie
day is bright the park should be packed.
Dermody and his associates deserve the
fullest support for they have undoubtedly

The Labor Legislative Council Indorses
Judge Mann’s Plan.
The labor legislative council held a regu-
lar meeting yesterday, receiving creden-
tials from the Barbers’ union, American
railway union, and. Laundry workers’
union.
Mr. D. B. Skinner made a lengthy re-
port upon his visit to Austin in the inter-
est of the charter amendments. The legis-
tive committee made a report upon
pending Ijgbor legislation, and explained
thoroughly their work concerning the
court house contract, and the action of the
court concerning same. A vote of thanks
was extended the commissioners’ court.
The speaker notified all members of the
legislative committee to meet on April 15,
at 8 p. m. sharp. The next regular meet-
ing of the council will be held April 25.
The following resolutions were adopted:
Resolved, that we approve of the pro-
posed incorporation of a commission to
hold title to the harbor and port property
of the city of Galveston, with power to de-
velop the same, as wants of the port
may require; that we approve of the ap-
pointment of 13 commissioners, as sug-
gested in the communication of G. E.
Manri to the Chamber of commerce, and
suggest that the first directors to be
named in the incorporation be appointed
at once and as follows: Two of the city
council, to be appointed by the council, and
the mayor ex-officio the third; two by the
Cotton exchange, two by the labor legis-
lative council of the labor organizations;
two by the Chamber of commerce, two by
the banks of Galveston, two by the gov-
ernor, from the state at large, and that
these appointees frame the charter and
the provisions of a deed from the city and
procure incorporation and legislation
necessary, in the line of the work done for
more than 50 years by similar corporations
in the development and management of
the harbors of the ports of Great Britain.
We respectfully request the city council to
take action necessary to the carrying out
of this resolution. ’ .
Resolved further, that a copy of this
resolution, together with a copy of the
communication of G. E. Mann, be sent to
the city council.

said. Aiderman Norm'an had introduced
in the council an ordinance for the sup-
pression of gambling. It is merely a tran-
script of the state law, but was intro-
duced because the police are; in doubt,
since the decisoin of the court of criminal
appeals as to their jurisdiction in state
cases, and have referred such complaints
to the sheriff. But the police had not
Stopped gambling when they had the
power, and the ordinance introduced by
Alderman Norman proposed to give them
the power. If the ordinance passed, the
police would have to enforce it. The
people of Galveston itaterested in the sup-
pression of gambling should begin ringing
their aidermen’s door bells at once and
never let up until they have agreed to see
that the ordinance is adopted. He wished
that a dozen good women would take a
toll of paper and get tfie signatures of
every one they met to a petition, asking
for the passage of the ordinance. If it did
not pass, his position, he said, would be to
war upon those who were responsible for
its failure.' The mayor had stated that he
favored the Ordinance, Some people might
charge that he siaid that for political ef-
fect, but it didn’t make' any difference.
Personally, he believed the mayor meant
what he said, and if the ordinance passed
and the mayor enforced it he would shake
hands with him. Further than this he
would not say one word in triumph or ex-
ultation, but would thank the Lord. He
said that after all the. officers of the law
are not entirely to blame when the laws
are not enforced. They are constantly
subjected to powerful influences from per-
sons and corporations who are financially
interested in gambling houses being run,
while the good people of the city did not
back the officials up and stand by them in
their fight against violators of the law
abetted by others who have an indirect in-
terest. All he asked was that the gam-
bling houses be suppressed and the sa-
loons closed at 12 o’clock every night; then
he would quit. He announced that on
Sunday, April 25, he would mako another
talk upon the same subject.

Just as The Tribune predicted on Fri-
day, the aldermanic contest was inaugu-
rated with the opening of this week by
the announcement of the following' ticket,
called a citizen’s ticket:
First ward: C. H. Hughes;
Second ward: Dr. H. J. Nichols.
Third ward: W. C. Ogilvy.
Fourth ward:--.
Fifth ward: -----.
Sixth ward: D. S. D'avison.
Seventh ward: Joseph B. Aguilo.
Eighth ward: Frank Jones.
Ninth ward: C. Van Sickle.
Tenth ward: J. C. Borden.
Eleventh ward: J. D. Skinner.
Twelfth ward: H. A. West.
Of these Messrs, Hughes, Ogilvy, Jones,
Skinner and West, who' were elected on
the Good Government ticket two years
ago; Capt. Borden, who was elected at the
same time on the People’s ticket, and Mr.
Van Sickle, who was elected as an inde-
pendent to serve the unexpired term of
Aiderman Ferrier, resigned, are candi-
dates for re-election. Aiderman Reymer-
shoffer will soon leave for Europe, and
Dr. Nichols has been therefore'selected as
th® candidate from the Second. Aiderman
■Webber Is a candidate for mayor and Mr.
Cleary will not stand for re-election. Al-
derm'a.n Norman desires to retire from the
council, and Mr. Davison has been; named
for the Sixth. Aiderman Harrington also
desires to be mayor, and Mr. Aguilo is
named as the candidate to succeed him
from the Seventh.
; Mr. Pat Barry has. been selected for the
Fourth w-ard, but he would not give a
definite answer to the committee which
waited upon him, further than to say that
he would run provided the charter amend-
ments were passed; t4iat he did not want
to be an aiderman if the city could not
settle the back salaries due its employes;
that he thought the $200,000 floating in-
debtedness bonds should be issued.
Mr. Ogilvy had declined to run again,
but a great deal of pressure .was brought
to bear upon him, and many citizens
called upon him and urged him to stand
for re-election and he at last reluctantly
consented.
Dr. Nichols is a well known dentist and
Maj. J. B. Aguilo is a well known produce
merchant, and was for years captain of
the Washington Guards.
Mr. Dennis S. Davieon, the candidate
from the Sixth ward, is master mechanic
in charge of the repairing department in
the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe shops.
He is an old resident of the city, and is
the father of Mr. Davison of Jockusch,
Davis'on & Co. A committee of citizens
from the Sixth ward, headed by Aider-
man Norman, called upon Mr. Davison
and presented a strong plea for him to be-
pome a candidate. He refused to give an
immediate answer, but took the matter
under advisement. On Friday the men
at the shops heard of the matter, called
a meeting and waited upon Mr. Davison
in a body, urging him to run as a repre-
sentative of labor, and pledged him that
if he would do so they would form a club
at the shops and work for him. This im-
pelled him to consent to the use of his
nW.
Dermody’s Dudes Knocked the Kinks Out
the Visitors’ Fetich.
The Brenham “beauts” came to town
yesterday accompanied by a lot of leather
lunged boosters, who had had visions of
seeing their team knock the starch out of
the Dermody dudes. They brought as a
mascot a redheaded negro, who has quite
a reputation around Brenham as a voodoo
doctor. The redheaded negro had for a
fetich a piece of rope with which Alex
Terrell was hanged recently at Houston.
But alas for visions, mascots, voodooism
and fetiches, the Dermody dudes broke
all the spells that were cast upon them;
likewise the “gents” who wagered that
the “beauts” would win.
It wasn’t a ball game; it was simply a
pipe-opener, a sort of warming up for
the league boys. The Brenham “beauts”
may astonish the Washington county ab-
origines with the manner in which they
slig, slug and slog the ball when on their
native heath, but that sort of business is
like a prize fighter doing his prettiest in
the presence of a looking glass.
Last night when Brenham was informed
by telegraph that the game had resulted—
Galveston 21; Brenham 1—the operator at
Brenham wouldn't believe it. The thing
that surprised the people who- saw the
game is that Brenham got one.
There was little about the game that
warranted enthusiasm. Really the Bren-
ham boosters did more shouting than all
the Galveston gang. What pleased those
persons who looked at the dudes for the
first time this season was to note the evi-
dence of real team work in the aggrega-
tion. This is really the first time in five
years Galveston has had a captain of
its team. If he does nothing more than
keep the boys up to the even, thorough,
brainy system they are now following,
Huston will have earned his salary. He
has the dudgs well drilled in three of the
most essential features of the game—i. e.,
scientific base running, unity of action and
steady, intelligent playing. There is less
evidence of “star” work in the team of
’97 than in any team Galveston has had
in recent years, but this ’97 lot is a great
deal stronger than last' year. This team
impresses an observer a§ being made up
of men who have “sand” and who will
fight like bull dogs t hrotighout a; game.
Mr, Nonchaient Nance is not going to.
be the leading batsman of the team either,
unless he’s better with the stick than he
was last year. It is the writer’s belief
that there are two dudelets who will show
better averages:

Another aldermanic ticket is said to be
in process of incubation, but will not be
announced for three or four days yet.
It looks like some subtracting will have
to be done in the matter of aldermanic
tickets. A reporter called upon all the
gentlemen named in the ticket formulated
yesterday and given above and asked them
if they were candidates. They replied as
follows:
J. M. O. Menard: “While I appreciate
the compliment that my friends have paid
me by placing me upon their ticket, I
can not become a candidate for aiderman.
My business will not permit of it, and be-
sides I will be absent a great deal this
summer. I would not accept the office un-
less I could give it enough time to do it full
justice, as I think I did before.”
George Outterside: “I am a Frank Jones
man. I was not consulted, and the use of
my name was unauthorized.”
Thomas Byrne: “I was not consulted,
and I hope you will deny that I am a can-
didate. My business would not permit me
to run.”
Ben Levy: “I declined the use of my
name. The announcement was made with-
out my knowledge and certainly against
my wishes. Under no circumstances can
I afford to run. Capt. Borden suits me all
right.”
John Wegner: “Some of the people in
my ward have been asking me to become
a candidate. I do not know who selected
the ticket upon which my name appears,
and do not, therefore, know whether I
was consulted concerning this particular
matter. The announcement was made
without my consent.”
John Sealy: “I have been solicited to
beccme a candidate, but positively de-
clined, and will, under no circumstances,
run. The announcement was not author-
ized.”
Thomas Goggan: “I had been asked to
run for aiderman, but did not give my
consent. I can not say that I will not run,
or that I will.”
W. F. Stewart|,-^“No person ever said a
word to me about the matter. I won’t

Mrs. Platt Talks About Hysteria.
When a nerveaor a set of nerves supplying
any organ in the body with its due nutri-
ment grows wbak, that organ languishes, f '
When the nerves become exhausted and ( f
die, so to speakf the organ falls into de- k
cay. What is 'toibe done? The answer is,
do not allow tiie weakness to progress ;
stop the deteriorating process at once I
Do you experience fits of depression, alter-
nating with restlessness? Are your spirits
easily affected, so that one moment you laugh
and the next fall into convulsive weeping?
Again, do you feel something like a'ball rising
in your throat and threatening to choke you,
all the senses perverted, mdrbidly sensitive to
light and sound, pain in ovary, and pain es-
pecially between the shoulders, sometimes loss
of voice and nervous dyspepsia ? If so, you are
hysterical, your uterine nerves are at fault.
You must do something to restore their tone.
Nothing is’better for the purpose than Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com-
pound; it will work a cure. If you do not understand your symptoms, write to
Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass., and she will give you honest,
expert advice, free of charge.
Mrs. Levi F. Pratt, Womleysburg, Pa., had
a terrible experience with the illness we have
just described. Here is her own description of
her sufferings:
‘ ‘ I thought I could not be so benefited by any-
thing and keep it to myself. I had hysteria
(caused by womb trouble) in its worst form. I
was awfully nervous, low-spirited and melan-
. choly, and everything imaginable.
“ The moment I was alone I would cry from
hour to hour; I did not care whether I lived
or died. I told my husband I believed Lydia
E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound would do
me good. I took it and am now well and
strong, and getting stouter. I have more
color in my face than I have had for a year and a half. Please accept my
thanks. I hope all who read this and who suffer from nervousness of this
kind will do as I have done and be cured.”

AT THE GRAND.
A fair and a.bpre'c.iative audience last
night witnessed the first performance of
.Edison’s vitascope. It is decidedly a great
Improvement on the kinetoscope. The pic-
tures are reproduced in life size and show
the colors in all their naturalness. The
audience was not satisfied until every pic-
ture was presented twice. Some of them
are very amusing. Mr. McKinley’s inau-
guration parade will be repeated tonight.

PIANO TUNING AND REPAIRING.
We heard of parties paying as high as
$40 for work done on pianos which would
be dear at a charge of .$2, and will result
in being an injury to instruments.
We specially warn our friends not to
permit humbug piano tuners and repairers
to touch pianos sold by us. Our guarantee
•will cease when pianos sold by us are
tuned by tuners not in our employ.
To prevent being taken in by tuners go-
ing around claiming to be in our employ,
leave orders at our office.

word to me about the matter,
run.”
It will be remembered that Mr. Stew-
art and Mr. Outterside were announced
as candidates upon a “Citizens’ ticket”
two years ago, and that their replies then
were substantially what they are today.
There are all sorts of rumors afloat as to
new’ tickets to be placed in the field. One
well known politician informed a Tribune
man this morning that there would be
half a dozen tickets and any number of
independent candidates in the field before
another week. Louis Schmidt says he is
going to run in the Ninth, and it is re-
ported that John Cotter will try it again in
the First, making two independent candi-
dates from that ward. The reporter had
it from a seemingly authoritative source
that there will be no “Anti-Susie” ticket.
LAW ENFORCEMENT.
Preliminary to his sermon last night
Rev. Leon Sonfield, pastor of St. James
chinch, made some remarks on the sub-
ject of law enforcement. He said he had
hoped to have been able to wash his hands
of the whole matter and tell his hearers of
success, but in all politics there are delays.
He did not know that he had anything to
do with politics, bu,t it seemed almost im-
possible to breathe now without breathing
politically. He wanted his congregation
and the people of Galveston to under-
stand, however, that he did not intend
taking any part in the approaching cam-
paign. He did not intend to have any-
thing to do with the making of mayors,
and yet he would frankly say that unless
something is done in the direction of law
enforcement the fight would go on, not
against men, but for the enforcement of
law. They had gone into the fight and
must stay in it until some good results.
There had already been some results, he

But the Governinent Is Willing to Co-op-
erate With the United States.
Mr. John Reymershoffer returned from
his vacation in Mexico yesterday. He told
a Tribune man that he didn’t have a very
good time.
“I found that I went to Mexico in the
wrong season,” said he. “It is terribly
hot and dusty down there now, but I am
informed that it is cooler in the summer,
and that when the vegetation puts forth
it is very pleasant. In the state of San
Luis Potosi they have had no rain to
amount to anything for, seven or eight
years, and the poverty and distress of the
people is terrible. It wasn’t so bad as that
in the other states, the drouth being only
temporary, but the dust'was very bad.”
“You didn’t go to Mexico on pleasure
alone, did you?” the reporter inquired.
“I went there principally for recreation,
but I also attended to some business mat-
ers.”
“What are the chances for reciprocity
between that republic and this?”
‘‘Not very good. I had, a talk with the
minister of foreign relations. He said, he
did not think Mexico could enter into a
reciprocity treaty with the United States,
because the republic would be obliged to
do the same with all other nations. He
thought, however, that commercial
treaties could be made which would be
very advantageous to both countries, but
they can not be based upon the idea of
reciprocity. The Mexican government, I
found, is perfectly willing to meet us in
matters looking to the development and
enlargement of commerce between the
two nations, and I feel sure that a great
deal of good would be accomplished if
more of our business men would go down
there and get acquainted with the busi-
ness men of that country and the officers
of the government. A personal acquaint-
ance with them will make the extension
of our commercial relations easier.”
“When do you begin the erection of your
new elevator?”
“I haven’t had titae to consult our su-
perintendent since my return, but it was
all arranged before I left that work should
begin as soon as I returned, and you can
safely say that it will start in the next
few days.”
