Some of these Texas league
pitchers are going to open their
eyes and probably lose their heads
when they run np against the
sluggers of the Denison-Sheiman
team. The boys are practicing
daily and it is said the way they
lambast the ball would 6ause a
National league manager to have
a desire to negotiate. If Gaines-
ville's club expects to tackle any-
thing good this year they must be
up aud about. If they can n:t
arrange for a park let them play
between the railroad tracks.
W. D. Gordon of West Gaines-
ville is in receipt of a letter from
his stepson, Frank D. Garrett,
who is in Baltimore, Md., taking
a medical course. He writes that
he has finished his second year's
work but will remain in Baltimore
during vacation, having secured a
position in the Maryland general
hospital. He will also take ad-
vantage of a spring coarse of lec-
tures in the Baltimore medical
college. Frank is well known in
Cooke county and his many friends
will be pleased to iearn of his suc-
cess.
