AT THE POST
A BOARD TO APPRAISE THE CAV-
ALRY HORSES’ VALUE.
Examination for Discharge of Volun-
teers Will Be Conducted by Other
Than Surgeons tof the Regiment Be-
ing Disbanded—Notes.
A board of officers to consist of Capt.
Robert R. Stevens assistant quarter-
master United States army; Captain
Robert H. Patterson First United
States artillery and First Lieutenant
Clough Overton First United States
cavalry has been appointed to meet at
the Post as soon as practicable to ap-
praise the horses desired to be pur-
chased from the government by the
enlisted men of the First Texas vol-
unteer cavalry. Upon the completion
of the duties of the board Lieutenant
Overton will rejoin his proper sta-
tion.
The calling of this board has been
rendered necessary by the application
of many of the cavalrymen to purchase
their horses when mustered out. This
application to purchase was owing to
the fact that many of the men when
they joined the army sold their own
horses to the government in order to
have a mount to their liking. They
sold the animals at a reduced price
to what they believed them worth and
now desire an opportunity to buy them
back. Captain Stevens asked the
War department to convene the board.
The instructions regarding the mus-
tering out of the Texas volunteers re-
quire that the physical examination of
the men be made by the army surgeons
other than those of the respective re-
giments to which they belong. It is
probable that Col. Luther R. Hare
chief mustering officer will designate
that the regimental surgeons of the
Fit st Texas volunteer cavalry shall
examine the men of the Second Texas
volunteer infantry and vice versa.
In that case Major Hadra and Lieu-
tenants McClanahan and Nichols will
be sent from this Post to Dallas to
muster out the Second Texas men.
The surgeons of the Fourth Texas
infantry might probably be selected
to examine the cavalrymen as they
are right here.
Capt. Stevens and his clerical force
are kept busy furnishing transporta-
tion to the furloughed volunteers who
apply for means to rejoin their station.
Under a recent order of the War de-
partment a soldier on sick furlough
must be returned to his regiment by
the government and the captain is
complying with this order every day.
Besides the men who apply in person
tor transportation Captain Stevens
sends by mall at least a dozen trans-
portation orders to those who write
for them.
The men furnished with transporta-
tion yesterday from this city were:
Robert Moore company L First Texas
infantry to Jacksonville Fla.; Henry
J. Remer Second Mississippi volunteer
infantry to Lauderdale Miss.; John
T. McDanifl company E Third Texas
infantry to Fort Clark; Sergeant Eu-
gene Schomberg troop C Fifth cav-
alry to Huntsville Alabama; Fred S.
Coy company G First Texas infantry
to Jacksonville Fla.
Corporal Paul Wagner of company
C First Texas was also returned to
his regiment yesterday from ordinary
furlough but in his case Captain Ste-
vens charged the transportation
against him.
First Lieutenant and Regimental
Quartermaster George A. Wheatley
and his able assitsant Quartermaster
Sergeant Al. M. Rareshide are busy
at work straightening out affairs in
their department and calling for
boards of survey on missing property.
The chief property which is being
rounded up is the state property such
as tents and cots. A house to house
inspection was made by Major Wheat-
ley and Sergeant Rareshide in the Post
yesterday and out of the sixty-six
state cots in Lieutenant Wheatley’s
care sixty-flve were rounded up. Lieu-
tenant Wheatley and Sergeant Rare-
shide together with Acting Sergeant
Major Frank Brown and clerical force
have locked themselves in their office
in Post headquarters to keep from
being troubled and are getting down
to genuine hard work.
Lieutenant Hannigan the indefati-
gable police officer of the garrison
continues his crusade against filth at
the Post and at the rate he is now
rushing things will soon have the
place as clean as a housewife’s kichen.
Yesterday he detailed Private Charles
Newborn of company M as gardener
and put him in charge of the shrub-
bery. Mr. Newborn is a practical
gardener and thoroughly understands
the manner of handling his work.
Lieutenant Hannigan deserves praise
for his work as the Post already
shows a great improvement.
The horses belonging to the Roose-
velt Rough Riders were sold early last
week at the Twenty-fourth street auc-
tion rooms. New York City. At the
close of the sale the auctineer announ-
ced that 1070 horses brought a total of
331070. The horses brought $5 to MO
per head and averaged 329 per head.
Only a few of the horses went to Cu-
ba. The horses were purchased in this
city by Captain Robert R. Stevens for
the Rough Riders.

Sixtey-four is not the highest score
obtainable in a single inning at nine-
pins but it was the best on the alley
at Mission garden last night and just
big enough to deprive the Ivys of one
scalp. It was in the lucky fifth that
the Missions grabbed the game from
the jaws of defeat while the Ivys were
bowling themselves onto victory.
After the Ivys had been gathered in
and the Missions were showing their
heels another collapse took place in the
sixth but the Ivys were not quite
equal to the task and the contest
closed with the Missions in the van by
but one pin.
Another close finish marked the sec-
ond game which was won by the Ivys.
Captain Fues’ men held the lead for
four innings and fortune again fa-
vered the Missions in the Fifth. They
passed the vlys by five pins but
slumped in the sixth. It was an
opening and the Ivys wedged into it.
While the results give the Mission
average an alum bath the Ivys gain
48 points. The scores:
First Game —

—“I can’t see how any family lives
without Chamberlain’s Colic Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy" says J. R.
Adams a well known druggist of Ge-
neva Ala. in a letter inquiring the
price of a dozen bottles that he might
not only have it for use in his own
family but supply it to his neighbors.
The reason some people get along
without it is because they do not know
Its value and what a vast amount of
suffering it will save. Wherever it be-
comes known and used it is recognized
as a necessity for it is the only remedy
that can always be depended upon for
bowel complaints both for children and
adults. For Sale by all Druggists.
ENGINEER FRUEHAUF RECOV-

Alois Fruehauf engineer at the B.
& S. M. ice factory who was seveerly
scalded by steam several weeks ago
has been discharged from the city hos-
pital and is now at his home 128 Elm
street. It was at first feared that his
eyesight would be impaired but he be-
lieves that his eyes to -the contrary
have grown stronger and he can now
read without the aid of glasses while
formerly he had to use them. His in-
juries were most severe about the legs
and have not yet completely healed
and he is still very weak being com-
pelled to use a stick in order to move
about.

HEALTHSEEKERS HERE.
With the approach of winter the in-
flux of northern health. seekrs is quite
noticeable in San Antonio.
Among the daily arrivals at hotels
and boarding houses are many north-
erners afflicted with lung troubles who
are coming here to spend the winter.
The hospitals are also rapidly being
filled with invalids coming from the
north. Among these are many paupers
in the city hospital who are penniless.
This will of course increase San An-
tonio’s death rate as many invalids
come here in the last stages of con-
sumption when there is no chance for
recovery regardless of climate or lo-
cality.

pure or impoverished blood like
