BUCK AS AN ALDERMAN.
What He Hat Done For the Third
Ward While in Office
At the “Buck” Hice meeting
Saturday night R. A. Holland a
colored citizen of the Third ward
addressed the assemblage. His re-
marks were to the point and hit
home every time.
“Gentlemen” said he “the rea-
son I am going to vote for
‘Buck’ Hice is because he
has been tried and I know
what kind of an aiderman he will
make. Look over his past record
and see for yourselves. He has
treated us all alike rich or poor
colored white or Mexican. He had
macadamized streets fixed up for
us and we now also have a col-
ored school-house which ‘Buck’
Hice put there. Not only that
but we also have better police pro-
tection and more light than ever I
before. Formerly a person could
be robbed and killed and the rob-
ber wouldn’t have to run a block!
to escape in the dark but now I
there are too many ‘blue coats’ and
too much light for any such thing. I
When a man has worked for you I
and done everything to protect
your interests as can be said of
‘Buck’ Hice I should think he de-1
serves your support.” These re- I
marks were received with cheers!
for “Buck” Hice.

The surprise of the evening how-
ever was an enthusiastic speech
from John Bailey better known as
“Black Sullivan.” John jumped on
the platform and began in a ser-
mon-like manner of a colored
preacher at a Baptist meeting.
“Gentlemen one and all when
you go to der polls on
dat glorious tenth of next August
you’se want ter get a ballot wid de
name ob‘o. B. Hice’ on it and
when yer gits it don’t turn loose
but go right to der ballot box and
put your arm down to der elbow
so yo be shore yo got de right vote
in. I tell yer when Fred. Kerblei
had the San Pedro springs and!
he would see some niggers on I
the grounds and the niggers I
would see him a cornin’ they would
fly like a horse kicking rabbits. I
“Buck” Hice is everybody’s friend I
and we’se got to put him whar I
he belongs an’ the only way ter I
do it Is ter vote for him.”
A Conquest.

Bucephalus and Quixote his

Chas. Pueschel the genial caterer
of Scholz’s restaurant made a

voluntary dismounts on his way

KNIGHTS OF THE MACOABEEB.
The State Commander writes ns from
Lincoln Neb. as follows: “After trying
other medicines for what seemed be a
very obstinate cough In our two children
we tried Dr. King’s New Discovery and at
the end of two days the cough entirely
left them. We will not be without it here-
after as our experience proves that it
cures where all other remedies fail.”—
Signed F. W. Stevens State Com.—Why
not give this great medicine a trial as it
is guaranteed and trial bottles are free at
F. Kalteyer & Son’s drugstore. Regular

A Pleasant Surprise.
A merry party of young ladies
and gentlemen stormed the hand-
some new home of Mr. Louis Sma-
sal on the eastern outskirts of the
city Saturday night and every one
enjoyed a most pleasant evening.
Dancing and games were indulged
in until a late hour and refresh-
ments were there In abundance.
IT MAY DO A 8 MUCH FOR YOU.
Mr. Fred. Miller of Irving II). writes
that be had a severe kidney trouble for
many years with severe pains in his back
and also that his bladder was affected. He
tried many so-called kidney cures but
without any good result. About a year
ago he began to use Electric Bitters and
found relief at once. Electric Bitters is
especially adapted to the cure of all Kidney
and Liver troubles and often gives almost
instant relief. One trial will prove our
statement. Price only tOc. for large bot-
tle. At F. Kalteyer & Son’s drugstore.

A SAD ACCIDENT.
LITTLE BOY KILLED IN A RUN-
AWAY.
His Neck Was Broken and the
Wheels Passed Over Him—A
Soldier Also Serious-
ly Injured.
This morning between 8 and 9
o’clock George Daly the seven-
year-old son of H. W. Daly of No.
108 Scott street north of Govern-
ment hill was killed almost in-
stantly in a runaway.
The first to see the accident was
Mrs. Minnie Buckholte a neigh-
bor. Coroner Jones was summoned
I to view the body and was accom-
panied to the scene of the sad acci- :
dent by a reporter for the Light.
i There are several statements re-
garding the accident. Mr. Daly ।
I father of the little fellow believes |
that the boy was standing on the |
I opposite side of the street from the
I house when the runaway started
I and seeing it coming he tried to
cross the street when the wagon
tongue struck him on the side of
the head breaking hie neck and
the wheels passed over his body.
I Another report is that the gov-
ernment corral wagon was return-
| ing from the post dumping ground
and that the little fellow was rid-
ing in it. The wagon was drawn
by a pair of big mules and George 1
hit them with a small whip he car-
ried. The frightened 1
and ran away. The boy was thrown
upon the single tree from whence
he either fell or was kicked under
the wheels which ran over him. I
The runaway started on New
Braunfels avenue and ran into
Scott street. In front of 106 Scott
street the driver attempted to stop
the team by running in front of it.
He was knocked down and the
wheels passed over him and also
over the boy at the same time.
The driver who is a soldier soon
regained consciousness and his
first thought was of the boy. “Is
he hurt ? I want to see him” was
the first he said. The driver was
taken to where the little boy was
laid out on a table. He was dead
having died a few moments after
the accident. Dr. Maus post sur-
geon was summoned and attended
to the wounded driver. He ordered
him taken to the post hospital
where he is now being treated.
The name of the driver could
not be learned.
The dead boy Is Mr. Daly’s eldest
son of four. Mr. Daly was former-
ly forage master at the post and
has lived in San Antonio about
two years.
Undertaker McCormick was sent
for to prepare the remains for
burial.

-ARMY NEWS.
Reported Specially Fob The Light.
The third of the baseball games
between the Fort Clarke and Fort
e Sam Houstons was played at the
post yesterday in the presence of
about 1000 spectators the game
at its close standing 14 to 21 in
9 favor of the home nine. We have
1- seldom been treated to such a rot-
». i ten game of ball as was put up by
. I the Clarks. What between muffs
fumbles fizzles and flukes they
made such an exhibition of them-
selves that every one felt sorry for
s them but to be fair and impartial
. it is only proper to say that the
। home team did not play a much
. better game. The feature of the
. j day was the rooting by Sergeant
Hine and his followers who did
. some splendid work with old cans
filled with rocks.
J A member of one of the troops
| was rigged out as a hoodoo doctor
1 and his presence on the benches
fairly demoralized the visitors
[ who couldn’t hold a ball after he
made his appearance. Several
. wagers on the result of the game
were made the losers having to
wheel the winners in a wheel-
barrow and one having to double
time around the parade in heavy
marching order.
The Clarks cannot play a losing
game. They have had it all their
own way so long away out there on
the verge that when they ran up
against something it took their
breath away.
“Red” Wright had his thumb in- :
jured and Loomis was nearly
knocked out by a runner to home
while he was catching. 1
The body of Mrs. Backus mother '
of the late Lieutenant Backus will
be interred beside her son in the 1
National cemetery today.

sary Sergeant Louis F. Duval on s
duty at Fort Russel is to be re-
tired.
Hospital Steward Savaidge on f
duty at Fort Reno Oklohoma was t
tried by a court martial and sen- (
tenced to a dishonorable discharge i
on the charge of bringing about a r
fictitious public sale whereby in r
the absence of contending bidders t
he could become possessor of the a
property to his pecuniary advan- t
tage. I
After a close review and a serv-
ing of the court the accused has
been returned to duty the court S
not having made out a case.
The Fort Clark baseball team J
leave today for home.
Lieutenant Kobbe of the Fort
' Clark team had two ribs fractured
at Saturday’s game he is however q
feeling comfortable.
Fined Heavily.
Jim Woods was fined $5 for being
drunk and disorderly $5 for disor-
derly and $25 for beating and
striking. He was out on Prospect
Hill beating his wife when Mr.
Lloyd and another white man in-
terfered and they had to use him
pretty roughly to quiet him. He
appeared to be like a Mussulman
when running “amuck.”
A Chance Shot.
Mr. R. Strohmeyer while out
bird and rabbit shooting on the
Medina yesterday did not a
Mexican jacal in line with his gun
when be brought down a bird and
a few shot struck a little mucha-
cho in the house. Matters looked
scary for Rudolph for a while but
finally the child’s father compro-
mised by accepting a rabbit.

NOW. YOU DID IT.
A Nice Young Man Gets Into Trou-
ble With a “Girl.”
May Porter one of Maud Camp-
bell’s (formerly Sadie Ray’s)
“girls” appeared before County
Attorney DeWitt this morning
with her head tied up. She com-
plained of a young man named J.
V. Adler or Adlett and said that
he beat her up early this morning.
She seemed quite badly used op.
Her face was cat but it is not
known how it was done. Adler or
Adlett was taken before Justice
Jones who fixed his bond at $5OO
which he gave. He is a young
drummer of New Braanfela.
The trouble arose over a bottle of
beer which it is said the man re-
fused to pay for.
He is not the Adler.
Mr. H. Adler of the firm of
Mayer & Adler is not the “Adler”
or “Aydlett” alias “Bob Roberts”
(as published in the Express) who
committed assault on the woman
in Maud Campbell’s house of ill-
fame last night. The right name
is not properly spelled on the affi-
davit but he is a drummer from a
New Braunfels house and he was
formerly in business in this city
on Houston street.
—E. B. Ramie has began build-
ing a store at No. 325 North Frio
street to cost $350.
THE MOST remarkable cures on
record have been accomplished by
Hood’s Sarsaparilla. It is unequalled
for all BLOOD DISEASES*
