GALVESTON 14, SAN ANTONIO 4.
At the end of the first half of the ninth
inning of the game between the Galveston
and San Antonio teams at Beach park yes-
terday Galveston had put fourteen men
over the home plate and San Antonio had
one little run to ht.-r credit. When Reese
came to bat for the Missionaries, with
Kling and Phelan on bases and two men
out he put the ball out of the Held toward
the gulf, adding three more runs. The
game was very much one-sided. There was
but little hope in the hearts of the Mission-
aries when play was called, and they di-
rected their energies to keeping the score
In the teens. Hivas made a brilliant play
similar to the one which won him plaudits
the day before. lie caught a long drive
from Chiles close to the big fence and
threw as straight as an arrow to third,
putting out Work. San Antonio was ma-
terially strengthened by J. C. Phelan of
San Antonio, a brother of Dick Phelan of
National league reputation. J. C. used to
play professional ball, but that was in
Kansas and in th«* summer uf 1889. Since
then he has eaptaiiwd some amateur clubs.
When he went to bat yesterday it was the
llrst time in two years. Previous to the
practice before yesterday's game he had
done absolutely no work. He played first
in a very able manner. Phelan compli-
mented the Galveston team highly and said
that Work had them well in hand. The
Galveston boys became a little careless to-
ward the end of the game, and made some
"wicked errors, but recovered quickly. Brls-
tow and Badger did good work. The um-
pire made some rank decisions, but as both
sides received the benellt there was no pro-
nounced klek.
To-day Galveston will meet Austin for
the tirst time at Beach park and will play
with the Senators Saturday and Sunday.
The Austin team is greatly superior to San
Antonio and Manager Work will have to
look well to his laurels. Galveston will put
up a first-class game undoubtedly and de-
serves the support of the fans. It is ex-
pected that Austin will have some line new
tblood in the team to-day.
Manager Work desires to make one day
of each series free to ladies with escorts,
and has named Saturday as that day with
the Austin engagement, when th«*y will be
admitted, not only free to the park, but to
•the ladies' grand stand. Game will be
called at 4.30 to-day and Saturday and at
3.30 on Sunday. After Sunday the Galves-
ton team will play eight games abroad—
three with San Antonio, three with Austin
and two with Houston. San Antonio left
last night for Houston to meet the Bayou
city team. Manager Clare is recovering
from his injury received in Tuesday's game
and 'will play to-day. He expressed his
admiration to The News for the treatment
he and his team had received in this city.

HOUSTON 11, AUSTIN 6.
Houston, Tex., April 25.—The game this
afternoon at Coombs' park between Austin
and Houston was a heavy batting game, in
which Houston did most of the heavy
work. The Austins were simply outclassed,
but they worked hard and kept up the in-
terest, though they lost the game by a
score of U to 11. Flynn, who played short
for Houston, did some good work. Follow-

FORT WORTH 2, SHREVEPORT 7.
Fort Worth, Tex., April 25.—Fort Worth
lost its grip to-day and gave Shreveport
the game by a score of 7 to 2. The grounds
were in better condition to-day and the
attendance much larger than yesterday.
The home team appeared in its new uni-
form, which undoubtedly proved a jonah
when good plays are considered. The game
was nearly featureless with the exception
of a double play by the two Flanagans to
Lucas in the seventh inning. In the sixth
inning McAiister scored on Riley's two-
bagger. In the eighth inning Fort Worth
scored its second and last 1-411. The visit-
ors on the whole did better playing than
the Panthers. Batting was light all around,
but very few hard hits being made. McCoy
of the visitors did excellent work in the
box, while Hoffman for the home team
was not effective. Following is the score:

FIXING FOR A FIGHT.
The Ring at the Tremont Opera House
Being Put in Shape.
Preparations for the glove contest be-
tween Dan Creedon and Billy McCarthy
Saturday night are about completed. The
ring is being put in shape on thS stage of
the Tremont opera house. The sand for
the padding has been hauled to the stage
and the canvas will be stretched over It
this morning. No barbed wire fence will
be built about the ring this time, as It Is
expected that those who will occupy stage
seats will not be of the kind necessary to
be restrained in such manner. The ring
is open to Inspection.
Both men are in excellent condition. Ed
Wallace gave it out last night that his
man, McCarthy, is not doing any more
work, being in excellent condition. Cree-
don punched the bag in the afternoon and
took a run of an hour or more in the
/morning. He boxed a couple of rounds
with Charlie Porter, who is looking alter
his training, and they made a beautiful
set-to. Porter got the worst of it. Cree-
don is working in a room back of the
Beach hotel, which has been iixed up for
him.
Mr. Wallace received a telegram from
Prof. John Duffy last night, in which he
said that he would leave New Orleans at
6.15 last evening and arrive In Galveston
at 9.35 this morning. He Will not only
referee the light, but will engage in a
four-round go with Tom Mongan as one
of the preliminaries.
Tommy Tracy, Creedon's half-brother
and trainer, will arrive Saturday morning.
He has been sick at Roby, lnd., or would
have been here before this. He is to fight
Tom Cavanaugh in Galveston In about
two weeks.
Colonel J. D. Hopkins, Creedon's backer,
wired Lou Phelan, the pugilist's manager,
yesterday from Chicago: "Tracy starts
Thursday morning. Make his match two
or three weeks from date. Tell Dan to
train faithfully. He meets Joe Dunfee at
Coney Island May 15 at 160 pounds." Dun-
fee is a light heavyweight.
Creedon yesterday received a letter from
Mick Dunn, recently defeated by Joe Wa.l-
cott at the Coney Island athletic club,
who Is training Steve O'Donnell at Cor-
bett's house at Fordham, N. Y., for his
light with Peter Maher.
Tickets are selling rapidly at the box
office.
MACK KNOCKED OUT.
Frank Fugatt put out Jack Mack neiar
the close of the fifth round in the Lone
Star athletic club last night in the pres-
ence of a small crowd. The men were
featherweights. Fugatt hails from Califor-
nia and Mack from Mobile. There were
several clever preliminaries ahead of the
main event.
Mack had a little the advantage of Fu-
gatt In height and is a clever fighter. Fu-
gatt is equally clever and is the better ring
general of the two. It was therefore a
hot light. Fugatt let his man do all the
leading until the fifth round, when he
hit him just above the left breast and sent
him to the floor. Mack took eight seconds
to revive and a moment afterward was
knocked out by a blow in the stomach, fol-
lowed by one on the chin. He struck the
bare floor so hard that for a few minutes
it was thought that there was a repetition
of the Andy Bowen episode. He recovered
under treatment. The incident caused
many unfavorable comments on the ring
not being padded.
BRRNAU CHALLENGES THE WINNER.
Prof. Herman Bernau, not being satisfied
with the last contest, desires to challenge
the winner of the Creedon-McCarthy con-
test Saturday night, April 27, especially
Creedon. He names as his terms of the
figtot that the winner take everything. "I
was overtrained when I fought Creedon
and not in proper condition, so I think I
have a perfect right to get a go out of
Creedon in case he wins. I am willing to
put up $200 forfeit money as soon as tney
say so."
BILLY HALL'S CHALLENGE.
Boston, Mass., April 25.—Billy Hall, "the
Pickaninny," to-day issued a challenge to
Solly Smith, Owen Zelgler or Jerry Mar-
shall to fight at 135 pounds before the Sea-
side club at Coney Island.

was also crushed. Chances are said to
be decidedly unfavorable for his recovery.

THE HAIL STORM.
Several Lives in Danger—Great Destruc-
tion of Property—Relief Needed.
San Antonio, Tex., April 25.—Further re-
ports show that the destructive hail storm
which swept over the western part of the
county last evening extended as far and
Included the towns of Castroville and La-
coste station, in Medina county, and the
settlements of Lyttle and Benton. The
roofs of all the houses were battered in
and all crops utterly ruined. Several hun-
dred head of cattle and horses were killed
and many birds and other smaller living
creatures were killed. Several persons were
also seriously Injured.
Dave Young, jr., of Benton, aged 10
years, was caught out and is suffering
from concussion of the brain and is not
expected to survive. His father was also
beat black and blue by the hail.
John Muller and his son, Lott Mulder,
living near Benton, suffered severe In-
juries, the large hailstones cutting gashes
on their heads and drubbing them severe-
ly. Lott Muller was also injured Internal-
ly and may die.
The storm has left the people without
houses and crops and they are in need.
At Benton a relief committee to receive
contributions has been constituted as fol-
lows: L. G. Collins, J. M. Webb, J. B.
McConnell, Rev. Drake, A. F. Gates and
J. A. Wells.
At Lacoste station there are but ten
houses, but these were batfered as though
they had been made of glass.
Frank Blederger, a farmer living near
thfie, was caught out in his field and his
head was badly bruised. Four of his chil-
dren coming home from school were found
insensible under some brush after the
storm, having sought refuge there. All of
•them are seriously hurt.
The losses around Castroville were all -of
an outdoor character.
At Lyttle a relief committee has been
formed consisting of R. U. Brown, J. F.
Cook, J. H. Reed, D. W. Rogers and L.
W. Gillette. They want contributi6ns for
the distressed farmers of their neighbor-
hood. The legislature will probably be
asked for an appropriation for this pur-
pose.
Last night's rain extended as far south
as Pears all and for several hundred miles
to the west.
Hockley, Harris Co., Tex., April 25.—Last
night at about 8 o'clock Hockley was vis-
ited by the severest hail ever known in
this county. The hail broke nearly all the
glass windows on the south side of the
houses, one house having four eight-light
•windows on the south side had twenty-
nine panes of glass broken out, only leav-
ing three panes unbroken. The hall stones
were about half the size of hen eggs and
fell very thick, nearly covering the ground
in about five minutes. It did a great deal
of damage to gardens, and corn being al-
most beaten to a pulp. Some of the corn
is cut off at the ground, and all look as
though it had been twisted nearly off.
The rain was very much needed and unless
it rains again soon what did fall will do
very little good, as the ground was very
dry, and stock water had become a thing
of the past on the range. Stock was suf-
fering greatly.
Kaufman, Tex., April 25.—A 'heavy rain
and hail here tojniig'ht, doing damage to
growing crops.
FIFTEEN SHOTS FIRED.
El Paso, Tex., April 25.—A special from
Van Home says that J. T. Gentry, section
foreman at Plateau, seventeen miles east
of here, had a fight with one of his Mexi-
can section hands last night. Pistols were
used and about fifteen shots were fired.
The Mexican was hit in the stomach and
is in a serious condition. Gentry was also
injured.
A Southern Pacific train to-day brought
from a flag station a man giving his name
as Dusselaorf, who is so bruised and
mashed up that he may die. He do--s not
tell where he lives, but says he was beaten
by Mexicans, who used coupling pins.

COL. H. M. ROBERTS.
A Distinguished Government En-
gineer Inspects the Gal-
veston Jetties.
GALVESTON'S OPPORTUNITY
He Tells How Seattle Failed to Grasp an Op-
portunity—Major Miller's Work Compli-
mented—Roberts' Rules of Order.
Colonel Henry M. Roberts, U. S. A., is at
the Beach hotel. He arrived on the steam-
ship Comal yesterday morning and will re-
turn to New York by water Saturday night
or Sunday morning. Colonel Roberts is here
to look over Major Miller's work. He is
inspector of the southern division, which
embraces the Mississippi river, Texas,
Louisiana, Tennessee, Alabama and a few
other states. The gentleman Is one of the
most distinguished engineers in the service
of this government. He was the president
of the commission which named Galveston
as the future deep water port of the gulf.
He spent a month here In that capacity in
1889, locating the jetties and getting gener-
ally acquainted with the topography of the
country and the citizens of the Island city.
He should have visited Galveston with
General Abbott the 1st of April as a mem-
ber of the fortifications board, but was de-
tained by reason of illness. This Is his
llrst visit to Galveston since 1889. When
seen by a News representative last night,
after dinner at the Beach, he was very
much pleased with the results. He had
been met at the boat by Major Miller and
taken out on the major's snug little steam-
er lo Bolivar and then by rail along the
south jetty. Returning to the city the
major and the colonel were driven over the
city by Lieutenant Judson.
To The News the colonel complimented
Major Miller highly upon the manner In
which the work had been pushed. He
laughingly said that the major would not
allow any appropriation to rust in the
vault. The jetties were fulfilling his every
expectation and he felt well satisfied with
the result of his inspection.
While out the colonel covered the ground
gone over by the fortillcations board.
The project of an exposition in Galveston
in 1896, celebrating deep water and which
should show the manifold products and in-
dustries of the middle, western and south-
western states, or all the states tributary
to the port of Galveston, as outlined in
The News of yesterday morning, was
broached, and he heartily fell in with the
idea. He said that Galveston certainly had
an opportunity of being a great city If she
took advantage of her opportunities and
did not sit down and wait for prosperity
to clamor for admittance. She should open
the door and invite industries. He gave
an example of Seattle in the early days,
when it seemed as though everything was
coming her way. All people who possessed
property there had to do, in their own
mind, was to sit back and grow rich.
Prices soon were 'hobnobbing with the
clouds and people who went there to pur-
chase or do business got disgusted and
went elsewhere. Seattle soon found her-
self holding a faded illusion, while other
towns were on the high road to prosperity.
For a long time the place was dead, then
commenced to push ahead and, although
now a leading point in the northwest,
might easily have been a great, city had
the advantages she possessed been prop-
erly taken hold of. Colonel Roberts hopes
that Galveston will not fall into the same
error. Everything is bright for the Island
city In the estimation of the colonel, but
she must keep things in motion.
The colonel Is the author of "Roberts'
Rules of Order," a hand book on parlia-
mentary procedure, that for nineteen years
has been used as a text book in the pub-
lic schools and has been of Inestimable
value to the people generally. The book
was originated in a peculiar manner. The
colonel was not a parliamentarian. In
California at the time, twenty years ago,
he noticed with indignation the tyranny of
a certain presiding officer and the Inabil-
ity of any member of the mixed assembly
to get justice. At that time California
was made up of people from every state
in the union, with different ideas about
conducting public meetings. Himself not
versed in proper procedure, he began
studying the rules observed by different
presiding officers and figured out what he
thought should be the proper procedure
in certain emergencies. These he put 011
paper and had a few printed for the com-
mon good rather than for profit. The lit-
tle book, labeled "Roberts' Rules of Or-
der," met with instant success, and about
200,000 copies have been sold.
"I made the rules for the people," said
the colonel last night, "rather than for the
officers. The people have their rights if
this Is a self-government, and should not
be subject to the whim or caprice of any
chairman or presiding officer." Two years
ago the plates wore out, and for another
edition Colonel Roberts added several
pages. He has received thousands of let-
ters covering certain rules and the addi-
tional pages were to enlighten and ex-
plain particularly the rules relating to the
amendment. A letter forwarded from New
York was received last night. He has had
the satisfaction of having some of his sug-
gestions adopted by the English parlia-
ment, and everybody knows the part the
little red book took in the Reed congress.
It is encouraging to have such a distin-
guished citizen of the United States eay
suoh pleasant things about Galveston.

$800 IN GOLD DROWNS A MAN.
At the burning of a steamboat on flie
Hudson river forty years ago, many pas-
sengers were drowned. Among t'he bodies
'brought up from the bottom of the river by
grappling was that of a man known to have
been an excellent swimmer. Around his
waist was a belt containing nearly $800 in
gold. That told the story.
"In old and chronic cases of indigestion
(dyspepsia or gastritis—it is all the same)
the sufferer develops a great variety of
symptoms and often dies—poisoned by the
products of 'his own torpid and inflamed
stomaoh. His food, instead of being di-
gested, and so furnis'hing strength and
physical substance, ferments and putrifles
within 'him. The chief process of life is
arrested at a vital point. The more he
eats the worse off he is. And yet, unless
'he can be fed, he must also perish. People
do so die daily, by thousands, but we doc-
tors seldom 'have the moral courage to give
the cause its true name lest we should be
laughed at for our inability to cure so
'simple' a thing as Indigestion. Simple?
W'hy, it is the capstone of all complaints—
and the mother of most of them."—So
writes a famous English physician.
iSome of the symptoms alluded to are
these: Loss of appetite: distress after eat-
ing; heartburn and palpitation; giddiness;
foul taste in the mouth; the rising of nau-
seous acids and gases into the throat;
furred tongue; spots before the eyes; un-
accountable weariness and fatigue; slug-
gish circulation; weakness and nervous
prostration; constipation or diarrhoea; dis-
colored skin, etc.
The sufferer's friends often advise h'im
to cheer up; throw off 'his lethargy and
eat freely. Bad advice. He knows better.
"No," he answers, "I can not; my food
does me no good." He is right. Food now
is gold In the spent swimmer's belt.
Take light nourishment, followed imme-
diately by a dose of the Shaker Digestive

ered and prepared by the Shakers of Mt.
