The size of the crowd which attended the
opening championship game here between
Houston and (JulvrSton on March 30, ISM,
was} slightly over 4000, nnd the prospects
are tliat tha.t mord will be broken this
afternoon b.-t>;r • the umpire sends the war-
riors to i he Held Hi 4 o'clock. MeCloskey
writes thai there will be at least P'Imi people
dotyn here from Houston to "root" for the
"(Colonels."
• * »
-jVinong the ranks of McCloskcy's fighters
at** three old favorites—Jack Lul»y, "Tub"
We) h and Walter Preston. Luby's mag-
niikvnt work in 1S!h>, which won the pen-
nant .01 the "San Crabs," will never be
forgotten, and he is the one pitcher whom
the Nlahd city "fans" still regard as the
Kivatest of them all. .lack is as good a
pit( in c ,t.-- he ever w;is and ought to be a
world-beater for McCloskey. "I am anx-
ious to my old Galveston friends once
more." said Lill y to The News' sporting
reporter, who was in Houston the other
day. "1 made my reputation iti the old
burg and was always treated like a. king
there, con.-.eCiuently I have only the kind-
liest feelings for it and its people. It is at
my own reouest that McCloskey put me
iiii and if 1 don't oiteh for my life against
Anson's crew ii will be because I am not
able." Jack is in splendid form, consid-
erably lighter than when here before, and
is taking the best care of himself. He is
th*\ same heavy slicker as of yore and has
ihe old cannon ball speed.
And who doesn't remember "Tub" Welch,
lift* big, fat, good-natured backstop, whofje
Terrific hitting powers caused many a
heartache here before. "Tub" used to
Pave his faults, but bad ball playing was
never ore of 'hem, and he was always
popular in this ut\. "Tub" will play lirst
base for Loeisvilk1 this season, and it ;s
needle: s t»> say he will do it well. Jim is
taking care of himself, knocking off the
fat regularly, and is a better ball player
Than ever h - was before.
Waiter Pr-ston. it will be remembered,
played short for McCMoskey's Houstonians
<»!v 'P2. lie impressed favorably as a
"comer" then, and it is not surprising that
he is in the league ranks to-day. In '!»:• Jv
stayed fit home in 'Denver, playing with
semi-professionals, and lasi year he ac-
« f|pted an engagement with the St. Joe
"Western association P-am. There he played
the b«-st all-round hail <d" any man in the
cireult. He was in l'l?» games. He was
tenth among 111 bai'1 r.-. ran away from
:«11 the sprinters, and led a dozen third
liiispnii ii in fielding, lie is a whirlwind on
1 he base lines and wiH show his heels lo
uM The fast base runners of the league.
Preston is as big as liill Kverett. and his
speed is surprising- for such a large man.
Jle will hold his own with Louisville, for
Jits excellent: habits, besides his playing
ability, will make him a host or' friends in
the Palls'"city Pfvston is a quiet, well
bred fellow, an earnest, conscientious
prayer, and a modi 1 in deportment.
* * *
ivief'loskey's team is not such a poor one
as many would imagine, and if the great
ar)d only "Napoleon" retains his usual
good judgment his men ought to take a
decent rank in the pennant race. Jack
Glasscock, the veteran, of whom so much
lias been said and heard but whom the
cranks have never had the pleasure of
seeing down here, is guarding short, and
that means a stone wall between second
and third. "Pebbly Jack" is a heady
trickster of the old school and can size up
batters better than any shortliehier in the
business. lie has a line side partner in
Johnny O'Brien, whom Billy Work pro-
nounces ' as good a second baseman as
there is in the business and a wonderfully
clever hitter." With Welch and Preston
to guard the opposite corners of the infield
that ought to he a hard quartette to get
a ball through.
i • t
«)ut in left field is Fred Clark, a young-
ster who is just entering the third year
«»f his professional career. He went from
3ils homte in Des Moines, la., to St. Joe in
1S®8, and. from that club to McCloskey in
Montgomery the same year. Last season
'.Mac had him at Savannah until the South-
ern league went under, and then Fred
went to Louisville, where he Immediately
.lumped to the front by his grand work.
Such a good impression has lie made in
ihe league that half a dozen clubs wanted
to purchase his release the past winter,
lie ife not a "comer"—he is a fixed "star"
already.' Frank Shugart. the speedy out-
fielder. formerly with Pittsburg and St.
Louis, is a fixture in the center garden.
Danny Sweeney, the shortest man in the
profusion, and Tommy Gettinger are ean-
oidqtes for right field. Both are promising
nypn'i; but the chances favor the little
fallow.
* * *
The tallest ball player In the world, Jan-
rtzen. is'behind the'bat for the "Colonels, and
young Cote, from the Pennsylvania state
league, is his assistant. Lai by. Knell, Bor-
ders. Inks, Cunningham, \L Dermott and
Wads worth comprise the pitching staff.
*,)ut of the seven, McCloskey ought to get
three or four good twirleiv. Knell and Inks
are a pair, of clever left-handers who have
had enough experience in the major league
3-hfks. Cunningham materially helped in
•winning the western league pennant for
Sioux "City last year, and is a steady, re-
uia-b'.e -boxman. Borchers is in -the doubtful
clac*, while McDermott, a young amateur
from St. Louis, is looked upon by his fel-
low player** as a wonder. Wadsworth was
with Louisville last year and is all right.
* * »
Now for McCloskey. Mac has reached
the height of his ambition—to be the man-
ager of a 'National league club. He is an
excellent business man, a good judge of
iball players, and certainly knows enough
about them to 'handle them well. <He ought
to make a success of it. With all the
squabbles they have had with h'itn, Ualves-
'tonians still admire and respect the doughty
manager, and will be glad to give him a
ryVal send off in his new career. McClos-
key was the father of professional 'baseball
in Texas, and, though he often did things
' ji'r''fjplfflhi J]¥*m \vas always square
anF im 1 tJLljii
deserves success, "because ne nas vvorkeT
(hard for 'it.
FORT WORTH'S TK.VM COMPLETE.
The Fort Worth 'baseball team may now
be considered complete. Charles Ellery of
Oin&innaiti, O., will play first -base. He
Is from the Virginia state league. Tom
Klaaihagan is the second baseman, and hails
from Cleveland, O. Henry Flannagan, a
'brother of Tom. and also from Cleveland,
wiH play short and be the change catcher.
ILeuiw MoAHster of Fort Worth will till
third base, and act as change catcher. Mc-
Allister is quite a base runner. (Harry iMace
of Washington, D. C., is one of the star
twirlers. 'Mont M-cFarland of Whitehall,
111., to also a pitcher who will twirl for the
Panthers. Josh Riley of San Francisco, Cal..
w-Ui play in the outfield and pitch. Jack
Mackey of Brooklyn. X. V., will play in
center held. "Kid" Nance of Fort Worth,
•Who enjoys considerable local celebrity, will
be given a trial 'in the box and In the field.
A couple Ktf other good, men are being ne-
gotiated with, and the results will be made
public *4 soon as practicable. It \v ill be a«?*n
that Manager Richards has taken the en- i
tire country as a field from which to choose |
a team, as he has one man from Frisco, an- j
other from Brooklyn, three from Ohio, one \
from the District of Columbia, two from
Fort "Worth, and one from Illin'V.s. The
park matter has been finally settled. They i
will use Sportsman's park, which :>s located !
about half a mile west of the city. Good |
street car service will be had. The grounds, !
the fences, grand stands, etc., ar • already
in condition, but some improvements will
be made.
TEXAS-SOUTHERN LEAGUE MATTERS
Good umpires are hard to get. but Presi-
dent AIcNValus seems to have had luck on
his side in picking up his staff of indicator
handlers. McLaughlin, Quest, Brennan an l
Anderson are all right and will do. M - I
Laughltn used to be umpire down here in
*S!>, and though he had a rocky time of it j
then, he has improved greatly in hi work ;
and ranks among the best. "Old J ><■" I
Quest, the veteran player, who anted;-.res 1
even Anson, has been umpiring su< -es-ful-
ly for half a score of years. Jack Be -:.i..n }
of St. Louis is another "ex" of the gre?n :
diamond, though still a young ma i. and
has .i good reputation in the work'. And. .-- j

to date: National league. Eastern league,

ernon, ill.
Manager Billy Work is a busy man
nowadays. Between selling season tickets
and negotiating with player-, he is kept on
the jump from "early morn till dewy eve."
Seven players are already signed and the
dragnet Is out for the other four. Those al-
ready under contract are liivt-elass men
and he is after other men of the same cal-
iber. Work is going slowly after them, as
most of th ■ men now disengaged have very
inflate I s{ ry ideas and want 'the earth to
come dovv. in re. An old favorite for the
infield is being worked on. and if he is
landed there will be joy among the "fans."
The change of base by Ted Sullivan from
Houston to Dallas is a good thing that
works both ways. Dallas needs a hustling
manager like Ted Sullivan, and the home
people of Houston will be given a chance
to run iheir own team. Ted will transfer
the players lie has signed to Oallas bodily.
Hepworth, Coombs and the other Bavou
city people behind the new team will im-
mediately cast around for u manager ami a
team. They have some good men o»n the
spot already, the nucleus of a strong team,
and can pick up the balance in short order.
* <* n
If San Antonio fails to come to time by
to-morrow a special meeting will be called
and its franchise declared void. Corsicana
and Waco, two substantial towns, are af-
ter the place, and the vacancy won't exist
long.

TED SI "ELI VAN'S TALK.
Houston, Tex., March 9.—Ted Sullivan
arrived this morning from Dallas. H -
says that the Dallas people want him to
bring his team there and offered him $300
and the grdunds free of rent, but as he
has given his promise to play in this city,
he will not desert Houston until Houston
deserts him. He also stated that the In-
ternational and Great Northern railway
company had promised to build the fence
and grand stand on the old Lee grounds
for him.
MOERLWrX BASEBALL CLUB.
The Moerleln baseball club has reorgan-
ized for the coming season. The iMoerlelns'
uniforms will be identical to those of last
year, with black -stockings, belts and caps,
which constitute the trimmings. The Moer-
leins would like to hear from any club in

sitions:
B. Luitich, catcher; H. Vordenlbaum,
pitcher and captain; C. Dorian, first base;
J. Smith, second base; H. Lewis, third
base; P. Sharp, shortstop; G. Harrison,

tnan, left field.

lenge to any nine whose average age is

PERSONAL AND GENERAL BASEBALL
Gus Maekey, the new Shreveport pitcher,
is a fulPblooded Ponca Indian.
Austin is still figuring on a manager.
Henry Fabian is now a possibility.
"Mikado" Flynn may be a fixture on
third for Hepwonth's Houston team.
It is the Sherman club now. The capital
for the Twin City clu'b was all raised in
t ha t town'
"Pig" Ward has been dropped by Wash-
ington and signed for Scran ton in the East-
ern league.
•Connie Mack, the tail manager of the
Pittsburg club, is like Anson, partial to big
men, especially for pitchers.
Work has a left-handed twirler on 'his
staff who will go through some of the
clubs like a streak of lightning.
Shreveport is the first in the field with
its full team. That speaks well for the
hustling qualities of its backers.
Austin's new ball park will be at the
dam, muc'h nearer to town and with much
better transportation facilities than before.
This afternoon's game is to -be started at
4 o'clock o-n account of several special
trains getting in here from Houston at 3.30
p. m.
John Clarkson, the famous ex-pitcher of
the National league, has been engaged to
coach the University of Michigan baseball
nine.
Little Dan Sweeney of the Louisvilles Is
the shortest man in the profession. He is
.even shorter than "Cupid" Childs of Cleve-
ll&MMr*n-irfffcrr>" Murphy of New York.
What curious changes 'tfrri*1 does bring.
Two years ago Pittsburg swapped Frank
Shugart to St. Louis for Jack Glasscock,
and now both men are playing together for
Louisville.
A game of baseball in Cuba two weeks
ago had 12,000 Havana people in attendance
and a gang of rooters present who would
put the Galveston and Houston crowds to
the blusdi.
Jack Glasscock of the rejuvenated Louis-
villes has picked out several defeats for
the St. Louis team and the Pittsburgs. It
would be just Glasscock's luck lo help beat
whatever aspirations either organization
may have.
'Here's a wrinkle for Manager Work: Cin-
cinnati will open trie season with a grand
street parade by trolley car. A band, both
clubs, newspaper men and a few invited
guests will be taken over the different
street car lines of the city previous to the
game.
Chicago Herald: It looks as if big Bill
Sc'hriver was on the doubtful edge, and as
if either Moran or Donahue might, bv bard
work, succeed him. Parrott and McGlll are
definitely in the *ioup. Jlgg* will have to

lie Will Co to Austin to Lobby for Gal-
veston's Bonds.
At the last meeting of the board of al-
dermen the following resolution was
passed:
Besolved by the city council of ihe city
of Galvesron, that the mayor is hereby
instructed and requested to communicate
u our representatives at Austin, urging
."•on them to use every legitimate means
.'i their e.unmand to secure from the legls-
laiui ■ authority to issue said bonds, and,
if m.e.-s-ary, the mayor is hereby author-
ized to appoint an agent to go to Austin
to represent the city in this behalf, and
the : ' m of $50, or so much thereof as may
he necessary, is hereby appropriated to
pay Cue expenses of said agent.
Vcsterday his honor appointed Mr. J. H.
Hawley as the person to visit Austin, and
that gentleman will at once go up to the
halls of legislation.

SC1101. A ST IC M O NTH.
Owing to the recent cold spell the Gal-
veston public schools were compelled to
lake a forced vacation, as the heaters re-
fused to work, thus making the buildings
loo cold for occupancy. This, in conjunc-
tion with the shortness of the month of
February, would have made loo few school
days for which to issue monthly report
c-arils (cards showing the standings of the
respective pupils), consequently Dr. Coop-
er instructed the teachers in future to is-
sue cards for every twenty scholastic days.
This fact will prove of interest to pupils
attending ihe schools. The first cards since
the midwinter examinations will be issued
to-morrow.

Said at Midnight—Confederate Vet-
erans Will Participate
Obtain Frank D. Ptnrrar died yesterday
afternoon at 1 o'clock. 'He was born in
Philadelphia. August 7, 183G, where 'he lived
until he reached manhood and learned his
trade, plumb-In#, in that c'ity.
lie came to Texas about lHfifi as superin-
tendent of the building of the Galveston
gas company's plant, enlisted in I8til with
Colonel Bates' Thirteenth Texas regiment,
company A, commanded by Captain Saun-
ders; was stationed at INatchitochefl, La.
He was detailed in 18(13 as orderly sergeant
and served as such during the remainder
of the war.
Returning to Galveston at the close of
the war, he had since resided here. -For
years he was one Of Galveston's foremost
citizens. Before the War he was among the
first organizers of the old hook and ladder
company No. 1, and after his return was re-
elected a member. As foreman of No. 1,
his valuable services were often acknowl-
edged by his fellow citizen*.
In his days of prosperity his hand and
luart were always open 'to the worthy, his
gifts being without ostentation, and fell
like gentle dew from heaven. When the
day-s of adversity were upon him, his chiv-
alrous and 'benevolent nature often prompt-
ed him to t?hare his littie with the deserv-
ing.
'He was an honorary mefliher of Harmony
lodge No. »i, A. P. & A. M.. and a thirty-
sc.-..nd degree member of the Ancient and
Accepted Scottish Rite.
The Kadosh services of this rite will be
held at PJ o'clock to-night in the Scottish
Kite hall, Masonic temple. The funeral
will take place to-morrow (Monday), the
hour to be announced later,
The body w'ill lie iti state in the 'Scottish
Rite hall from about 8.30 o'clock this morn-
ing until 12 o'clock midnight, when the Ka-
dosh ceremonies will 'be performed.
The ceremonies lined at the obsequies of a
Knight Kadosh are rarely performed. Only
.Masons of the highest degrees receive the
honor, 'but they will be given In all their
solemn detail in last honor to the lamented
brother, whose rema'ine will lie in state here
•to-day. The ceremonies will take place at
midnight. The walls of t'he hall will lie
covered with black cloth, and on a trestle
in the center will be placed the coffin con-
taining the body of the deceased knight.
The body will be dressed In the habit of the
Kadosh. the legs crossed and the arms
folded on the breast. Nine candlesticks,
four feet In height, will stand In three tri-
angles on the east, west and south sides of
the coffin, each having upon it a lamp. The
ha'll, 'Which will do service as a chapel, will
be otherwise unlighted.
On the upper end of the coffin will rest
a cliaplet of white roses, and below it the
insignia of the order and sword of the
deceased knight in its scabbard. Ppon a.
tablet, near the coffin will be placed a hu-
man skull, wreathed with evergreens, sur-
rounded hv seven candlesticks, bearing no
lights.
At t'he head of the coffin will stand an
iron cross, painted black, and the grand
master, or master of the Kadosh, or pre-
ceptor. will carry an iron hammer with
which to strike symbols upon the Iron
cross at the head of the coffin.
The grand master of Kadosh preceding,
and twenty-one knights following, all bear-
ing tapers and attired in black cowls, with
scarfs of crepe, will enter the chapel one
by one. and as silently as shadows. The
knights so entering will arrange them-
selves in a semi-circle on the west, south
and north sides of the coffin, facing east,
and the grand master will stand on the
east side of it, behind the cross, facing
west.
There will be a concealed choir of a few
voices, with an organ. In the gallery, but
nothing will be sung or played until it is
so directed in the proper place in the of-
fices. After standing a few moments in
perfect silence, a trumpet will sound in the
distance, and the grand master will open
the ceremonies.
The solemnness and Impreasiveness of
the Kadosh obsequies can not readily be
described. These ceremonies were last
performed in Galveston on the 14th of
July last over the body of Judge Philip
C. Tucker, grand commander of the Scot-
tish Rite, who died in Washington, D. C.,
and whose body was brought here for In-
terment.
The following officers have been ap-
pointed to conduct the ceremonies to-
nignt:
A. B. Chambfcrlin, thirty-third degree, in-
spector general, as master.
R. C. Pitkin, senior warden.
Charles R. Brown, junior warden.
F. M. Gllbough, master of ceremonies.
The body will be given over to Har-
mony lodge for the final funeral rites
Monday morning. The pall bearers will
probably be chosen from that lodge. It is
likely that the members of the United
Confederate Veterans will take part In the
last services.

ed in New York in April, 188G, have be-
come quite the thing in many sections of

esting and profitable to the young people
engaging in the oratorical contests.

cate that a, pleasant evening is in store

WENT TO THE SCENE.
The Committee to Investigate the Santa Fe
Obstruction.
Aldermen Wegher, Grelling and Har-
rington, the special committee appointed
to investigate and report upon the ob-
struction of avenue B in the West End by
the Santa Fe, went out at 10 o'clock yes-
terday morning to the scene. Some legal
points have arisen and City Attorney Bal-
linger will be called into conference at a
meeting to 'be held Wednesday before any
report is made.
The committee was appointed in pur-
suance of a resolution by Alderma®
Jaques to Investigate an obstruction by the
Santa Fe on avenue B from Twenty-ninth
to Thirty-first streets. The company laid
a track on. the north side of avenue R
very recently, and now claims to have
had a right so to do by virtue of a fran-
chise granted in April, 1888. A subsequent
amendment to the charter to prevent the
granting Of any further franchises was
passed by the legislature. The question
has arisen in the minds of the committee
as to how far the ordinance and charter
amendment go.

MONGHAN IN TRAINING.
The boxing contest between Micky
Thomas and Wm. Cavanaugh in the Lone
Star athletic club last night lasted twenty-
live rounds, without a knock-down or the
shedding of blood, and with hardly a
scratch.
Torn Monghan, who refereed the contest,
was In Houston yesterday, arranging for
his fight with Tom Layton on next Friday
night. He wanted to see that the arrange-
ments about the ring were properly looked
after, and also to inquire about $100 which
Layton still owed the purse as forfeit
money. Monghan has commenced training
In Prof. Berhau's gymnasium, and will con-
tinue to work there until he goes to Hous-
ton to meet Layton.

The literary women in New York are
taking to the public reading of their own
works as a means of increasing their in-
comes and their lame. Kate Douglas Wig-
ean, Ruth McEneiv Stuart. Mrs. Barton

read their stories and poems in public.

"Trilby" has started women on a fresh
crusade in the care of their feet. It gives
a "black eye" to tight shoes. If the foot
is to be beautiful bare the shoe must be
loose (as Trilby knew). Tlie one thing
that can keep the feet perfectly soft, the
skin all over them like a baby's, is oil.
Cocoa oil is the best for Them, and they
should be rubbed with it every day. The
result adds greatly to comfort as well
as to beauty.

A great deal of hair is ruined by curling

Mrs. Cleveland bends her energies to
keep out of the newspapers. She enter-

Miss Consuelo Vanderbilt has just sailed
for London with her mother, Mrs. William
K. Vanderbilt. There is a rumor that she
will soon marry the prince of Battenburg.
Both ladies had bedrooms prepared for
them with hammocks that are supposed
to be the most complete protection against
sea sickness ever invented. They are beds
hung upon ropes and chains.

Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt has the rep-
utation of being one of the most reckless-
ly extravagant women New York ever
knew. The fact that she had an entire
floor of the Continental hotel in Paris re-
furnished gorgeously at her expense for a.
stav of six weeks, was one of the things
that brought about the separation from
her husband.

The woman with a talent for dress says:
"A great number of women ruin their ap-
pearance by not changing their style of
dress when nature changes th^ir style of
looks. A woman does not keep one style
h 11 her life; she starts out blonde and
thin; within ten years she becomes much
darker in effect and becomes broader and
stouter; but ten to one she clings passion-
ately to the colors and general character
of gowns and bonnets that were always
becoming to her. She is a. lost woman.
She is sure to look passe. It is a great
thing not to fall into a rut in clothes;
look with a single mind at the present ef-
fect of the things you try on."

Helen Gould, who is rapidly achieving
the position of an old maid in the light of

Mrs. C. F. Huntington recently got a.

the new maid, "two baths a day! Why
my las! lady took one in a week; and the
\llttle children took one a week, too."
••Poor little wretches," exclaimed the
new mistress, and she tells the story in
the same spirit, but she does not tell
whom her maid lived with before she got
her. The two baths a day are supposed
to have an effect In keeping down her
