In Doin' of goal throwing the game

For team Powell was the best point
maker. He had a total of ten to his

ended 19 to 15 in Shafer's favor.

thirtv-three being the total for the
game. But these figured very little
in the s'core. as only seven of the

When Nat Goodwin Was the Bell.
(Everybody’s Magazine )
"Mv rubber." said Nat Goodwin de-
scribing a Turkish bath that he once
had in Mexico ‘‘was a very strong
man. He laid me on a slat and
kneaded me and punched me and
banged me in a most emphatic way.
When it was over and I had gotten
up he came up behind me before my
sheet was adjusted and gave me three
resounding slaps on the bare back
with the palm of his enormous hand.
“What in blazes are you doing’’’ I
gasiM staggering.
“ ‘No offense sir’ said the man. ‘lt
was onlv to let th* office know that I
was ready for the next bather. You
see. sir the bell's out of order in this
room.”

BRONCS HAVE MEW
REASON TO WORK
Fans Have Started Purse of
$l5OO to Go With Pen-
nant Winning.
An additional and very powerful
incentive has been given the Bronchos
to win the pennant this season.
Started bv Fred C. Groos a purse has
been started which is expected to
reach the sum of $l5OO. This wad of
cash will be divided among the
Bronchos should they win the pen
nant.
Although the movement Is only a
few hours old. it has gathered
strength rapidly. A chance will now
be given the loyal fans to help the
team along and to the knockers to
“put up or shut up.” Should the
Bronchos fail to come out on top the
monev will revert to the subscribers.
The team can be counted on to do
its best but that little extra sum
should show that its efforts are and
will be appreciated The money is
more in the nature of a reward for
success than an incentive to endeavor
although the two mean about the
same.
With the hardest kind or a tight
ahead the team needs every encour-
agement. If it fights down the odds
against it. the money will be well
earned.
The paper stating the purpose
and signed by the subscribers reads
as follows:
“We. the undersigned moved and
inspired bv love of the game and con
fuience in the home team hereby sub-
scribe the amount set opposite our
names for the purpose of raising a
fund of $l5OO to be divided share and
share alike< among the members of
the San Antonio baseball team should
thev win file pennant of 1907.
"We are sure our boys can win if
they only play ball and this sum is
subscribed to grease the track and
give them a touch of highlife.
"Sighed
“Fred C. Groos. $lO.

TWO CLOSE GAMES
WITH EVEN BREAK
"C. C.” and ‘‘Missions” Divide
Honors in. Hard Fought
Contests —Bowling Notes.
Missions vs. C. C.
Two exciting games were rolled on
Sommers’ alleys last night between
the “Missions” and the "C. C.” Each
team succeeded in taking a game both
games being won in the last inning.
The losing team in each game had
the lead up to the beginning of the
sixth.
While the scores were not large
yet they were by no means bad as
the alleys were strange to both teams
being selected tor that reason that
each team wished to try its skill on
a neutral alley. This makes the eighth
game that the “C. C.” has bowled and
on each night they broke even.
Milton Dullnig for the mission ea-
sily was the star performer last night
as he made seven nines in the first
game and four in the second. Judd
Dresch Dukes. Fues and Mike Ber-
wick did some good bowling ridding
the alleys of some hard figures.
It is not often that both games in
one night are won in a garrison finish
but such was the case last night.
Score of first game:
Missions —41. 42. 36. 43 43 63.

The Giants underwent considerable
cranial contraction at the mits of one
Winchell yesterday. The cupolas of
the visiting crowd had become enlarg-
ed out of proporjion to the remainder
of their structure and the reaction
was wholesome and edifying In the
ext rente.
Winchell developed for the mystifi-
cation of the horde from the mud
flats of the Trinny river a delivery
iwthout parallel in the previous ex-
perience of the Giants. It was ex-
ceedingly bad dope and it will go
down in Dallas history as at: indigesti-
ble compound belter let alone than in-
dulged in.
Burnett may have had something
1 in reserve but he was very bashful
; about it. Anvthing he showed was
; nouncod on with an equine ha-ha and
; his salivary slings seemed to meet
with the entire approval of the resi-
dent bat brigade.
The first concussion came in the
second when “Art" Griggs received
a misdirected sling on the left flu
Two were out. but Ikey creased the
ball into center for two and Art

I Flores street and came all the way
around.
In the fourth Maloney slashed one
over the vcllow sign for the complete
route and Dallas then suspended
operations until the eighth.
Hut in the meantime the sixth
with its great joy to local fandom
rolled around. Winchell had worried
the visitors back to the pasture and

At divers other moments the visit-

eoual to the occasion. With error-
less support he kept the Giants tan-
talized and wig-wagged a grand total
of nine for the game.

.Jew Lumber Yard..
We have just completed at 1309 South Flores street opposite the S.
A. & A. P. depot a lumber yard which is the largest tn the State. The
new yard contains about ten acres has nearly a half mile of graded
streets and 1800 feet of switch track. The sheds for dressed lumber
when completed will be 570 feet long two-story. The warehouse for
sash doors and blinds has 14000 feet of floor space. This immense es-
tablishment is worth seeing and we would be very glad to have our
Mends and patrons call. The new location will enable us to serve our
patrons in a most perfect and satisfactory manner. Our old office and
yards at 306 South Flores street will be closed.

Pittsburg Women s New Diversion.
i Philadelphia North American.)
Pittsburg Society women have de-
veloped a morbid fad in having thei?
vermiform appendices removed and
the amputation has become so much
in vogue as to have become requisita
to eniov social equality with the up-
per set.
In discussing the newest fad a so-
ciety woman writing to a local paper
declares that another prominent so-
ciety woman and a leader among
Pittsburg women's clubs has asked to
be remembered with flowers in Au-
gust saying "I’m going to have my
vermiform appendix taken out. Every
one I know has been treated so sue
cessfullv. Oh no; it doesn't trouble
me. but one never knows when it
will.”
That manv women with much time
and social prestige are becoming
monomaniacs on the subject seems t<»
be an assured fact after careful .in-
vestigation here and surgeons who
are profiting by the fad do not hesi-
tate to ridicule and condemn the prac
tice.

phia chicken. They leave th»» water
In 1 si ivering condition that is ap-
palling their vitality so low that re-
covery is a miracle. This is sheer
nonsense. In our celebrated sanitari-
ums there are physicians who pre-
scribe the number of minutes a man
should remain in his bath this pre-
scription depending largely on the
condition of his heart. This man can
stand two hours; that man can stand
only twenty minutes. At our beaches
there are no precautions hence a
great number of drewnings.
