HOGG AND THOSE PASSES
HIS ANNUAL ON THE SOUTHERN PA-
CIFIC OFFERED FOR A RIDE.

Trecluct Primaries—Otlior Nc\v«,
Houston, Tex,, Juna 14.—A responsiblo
gentleman to-day said, iu speaking of tho
late free pass episode:
I read with considerablo Interest tho
rhetorical appeal of tho Hogg committee to
tho various officers, from supreme judge to
constable, urging them to give up tho
passes which were extended them by . tho
railroads. While I differ with tho gentle-
men as to tho intent of tho railroads in
issuing the passes and as to tho propriety of
their oeing retained and used by thosohold-
ing them, I was touched by tho eloquence
of tho letter and supposed forci-
ble stylo would insnira ' the return
of at least six passes, but It seems
the effect was Dot felt, as I had tho honor of
sitting near tho Hon. J. S. Hogg in tho
west bound Sunuet train to-day and noticed
that he held up an annual pass to tho con-
ductor for his passage. Upon observing tho
naino on tho face tho conductor turned it
oyer ami saw thai It had not been signed by
General Hogg. He informed the general
that he couldn't pass him on that unless it
was signed by tho beneficiary. The general
then informed him that it was all right;
that ho was J. S. Hogg. Tho
conductor said he had instructions and
would have to chargo him faro, and it
would be at 4 cents a mile. This made the
general a little hot and said ho would pay
it. He had, however, handed tho conductor
a bill aud ho was taking out $1 95. but he
bethought himself of a better plan—give
him a chance to buy a ticket at the next
station.
Try again, gentloman, ye of the com*
mittee, and may bo ho will turn in the
passes, alias the "bribes." tho shackles, to
the railway companies.
hdntsvrlle.
HuntsVRle, 'lex., June 14.—Hon. J. C.
Hutcheson spoka in tho opera-house to-day
to a large audience in favor of Hogg and tho
commission. His speech was two hours in
length and was a mastorpicce. His argu-
ment on tho alarm that capital will take if
Hogg is elected was specially strong and
satisfactory. Ho said that railroad build-
ing had already ceased, that Gould and
Huntington controlled tho entire traffic
of tho state and were uot interested in
building other railroads, introducing com-
petition with their existing linos; that they
were uot builders but wreckers in their
present relation to acquiring railroads, and
as wreckers stood !iko highwaymen along
tho line of railroad construction paralyzing
honest capital from bulldiug, because to
build meant to subject their investment to
rape and seizure by thoir rival and power-
ful operators. Their great railroad sys-
tems wera "dogs in tho manger," neither
building themselves nor permitting others
to build. Existing railroad combinations
have paralyzed railroad building, uot ad-
verse legislation, and an honest commission
may aid honest capital to re\i?a railroad
buiidinir.
jefferson.
Jefferson, Tex., Juuo 14.—A Hogg kill-
ing time is certainly what took place in
Jefferson this evening. Captain George T.
Todd addressed a Hogg club at tho court-
room and was followed by L. S. Schluter
against Hogg and tho amendmont. Every-
thing wenv all right until Schluter got up
to reply. His speech was one of tho ablest
and most enthusiastic over delivered in
Jefferson. It created so much enthusiasm
with tho anti-Hogg men and so inuclj
chagrin Oil thS part Of tb^iOgg Iflftll that
for jaiuutes during his speech the cheers
for Cook and Schluter wore deafoning.
It was the completest Waterloo for tho
Hogg men imaginablo, and to say that they
are soro and seo the damage it has done
them is putting It mildly. L. L, Schluter
will probably canvass tho county next
week.
Tho change in the tide against Hogg can
be soen with the naked oyo, aud it is
safe to say that at tho primary noxt Satur-
day that Uosg will como up short. Thu
auti^Hogg victory this evening is all tho
talk, and the people see that the moro light
that is thrown on the subject the worse it
will be for Hogg.
bonham.
Bonham, Tex., Juno 14.—Tho precin:t
convention met here to-day. It bucked and
gagged its delegates to tho county conven-
tion for Hogg and Pendleton and tho com-
mission. It is tho beginning of an effort to
place a commission plank in the state plat-
form. It was favored by It. M. Lusk, P. C.
Thurmond, It. B. Temple, and was opposed
by C. L. Galloway, C. D. Graco and Frank
Brar.eiton iu speeches under thelivo-miuute
gag law. E. L. A erne w was instructed for
Iloater from Fannin and Lamar oounties
and J. H. Lyday for district attorney. No
instructions for state senator, but a resolu-
tion was passed opposing the nomination of
any man opposed to the commission.
Tho following test was passed, which
allowed all Marion Mnrtinites and malcon-
tents generally who havo onto been demo-
crats to affiliate; On motion of Thurmond
it was resolved that none but democrats
who have affiliated with the democratic
party and who propose at the coming elec-
tions this year to support tho nominees of
that party shall participate or bo allowed a
vote in this meeting.

cameron, Tex., Juno 11.—Hon. Gustav

zen of Toxas, coming from a eourc^ un-
worthy of credit, and said if ho was elected

fuse to tako the oath of office. The atten-
tion paid to Judge Cook throughout his en-

Sporting News.
The Athletic association of Galvoston
scored a signal victory last night, and from
this timo forth it stands as ono of tho fore-
most organizations of tho south in tho way
of perpetuating sporting events.
The announcement that Andy Bowen's
athletic combination would appoar at tho
Tremont opera-hsuse filled tho theater last
night. Tho advertisement announced that
?50 would bo givou any local sparrer who
would stand up for four rounds before any
of the professionals of the combination.
This defi put the local sporting men on
their mettle, and arrangements were made
by tho Athletic association to accommodate
the visitors.
In the lightweight class Sam Lyons, a
local, was pitted against Andy Bowon.
Howon has defeated Billy Meyor, the
Streator Cyclone, aud claims the light-
weight championship of America. This
title, though, will not belong to Eowen for
awhile. However, nothing daunted by tho
claims of Bowen, Sam Lyons stood before
him until ho was worsted. The local was
clearly outclassed in every way, but ho was
game and won hosts of frlVids by his
plucky battle. Chlof Lordon stopped the
light before it was lini- hod.
The event of tho evening was to have
been a four-round contest between Poter
Burns, the heavy-weight professional of the
combination, and Professor Bernau of the
Athletic association. Bernau is the young
man who wrestled with Muldoon lsBt
spring at Harmony hall, A quiet tip had
been given out that Mr. Burns would
have his hands full in knocking tho profes-
sor out, and tho sportiug gontry wero on
band in full forco to witness tho discomfit-
ure of the professional, but they were
doomed to disappointment.
Tho manager of the professionals had
been givon a tip that Bernau was a good
man, and ho was exceedingly auxious to
find a loopholo through which to avoid
having the set-to take place. The first ob-
jection offered was that, the police would
not allow tho exhibition to go on. He was
assured by the chief that the police would
interfere only when the affair had become
brutal. Tho next excuso offered was that
tho audience would interfere. He was as-
sured that there was ample police protec-
tion to prevont any such interference.
Tho last and final excuso was that Ber-
nau was a professional. The directors of
tho Athletic association then became thor-
oughly convinced that it was useless to hope
for a contest, and contented themselves
with arranging for a future finish fight be-
tween Professor Bernau and Poter Hums.
A deposit of ?50 a side was placed In the
hands of Mr. Walker of the Tremont opera-
houso as a guarantee of a fight to a finish,
to take place within four weeks. Tho
amount of the stake to be contested for will
be $100.
Tho audience was much disgusted with
the failure of Burns and Bernau and at one
time the excitement was so great that there
was a one-round set-to in the parquetto be-
tween two of the audionce.
The other features of the performance
consisted of wrestling by James Glass and
George Queen, juggling by Miss Lottie 111-
randi and a contortion act by William Gay-
lord.
The combination leaves for Houston to-
day and will perform thore on Monday.
AND NOW THE VETERANS.
LET THE OLD-TIMERS MEET.
The proposition made some time ago for
n series of games between the old time ball
players of Houston and Galveston met
with a great deal of favor among the ad-
mirers of the national game, and more pars
tlcularly tho3e who m days goiie by were
wont to wield tho willow and chase tho
evasive sphere. Iu the confusion incident to
the collapse of the professional Texas league
there has been little said about the old
veterans, but now that the league season is
over tho interest in the proposed game is on
the increase. Mr. Houlahan has his nine
organized and only awaits tho pleasure of
Mr. Coyleof Houston. A series of four Sun-
day games—two in Galveston and two in
Houston -would prove very interesting and
draw large crowds.
The following from a young lady admirer
of baso-ball explains itself. It is to be
hoped that the desire of the young miss
may bo gratified. It is respectfully referred
to W. H. Coyle of Houston and Wm. Hou-
lahan of Galveston;
Galveston, Tex., June 14.—To The
News; As I have been an ardent admirer
of base-ball, all tho games at Boach park
this season I have attendod regularly. As
I know how the games are played now, dear
mo, Mr. News, won't you try and get up
that game between the old ball players of
Houston and Galvestonf I would like to
seo ever so much how it was played before
I was born, it's such a novelty from all I
have heard about it. My. father says it
makes him laugh every timo be thinks
about it. Surely It must be a rare treat to
see them play. Ever so many of my lady
friends want to know when tho gamo takes
place, as they too want to enjoy tho funny
side of tho game. Yours truly, Carrie.

GOsSir OF THE FIELD.
Ponsonby—la Leatherwhack a ^ood ball
player? Silby—Well, I should say sot I've
seen him catch as many flios in a day as a
saucer of sirup. [Exchange.
You never see a man who dozes in church
going to sleep at a base-ball match. But
then thore is quite a difference in the stylo
of delivery. [Yonkers Statesman.
In M. B. Curtla' new play, Tho Shatchen,
Meyer Potovrskey, who wears his watch in
his upper vest pocket, takes "a flyer" at the
sport and says: "I paid DO cents to see a
game of base-,ball and mino heart beat so it
gut my vatch out uf order und it cost 57 to
avo it fixed."
Blobson—Johnny, how m»ny times have
you plnyod hooky since the baso ball season
began? Johnny—Not once, pa. Blobson—
That's good. Here's a cent. Jolinuy—
Thauks (asid*) 'Talat a lio neither. I've
played hooky a good deal more than once.
[Lawrence American.
Manager has Frazor secured tho release of
Third Ba»eman O'Rourke of tho Houston
club of the Texas league, paying £100 there-
for. o'Rourke is said to be a wouder.
Ho loads the Toxas league in batting and
base running, and also load3the third base-
men of the league in fielding.
"But my dear madarne, because'your hus-
band has avowed his intention of continu-.
ing, as you say, to be a base ball crank next
season, I see no reasonable grounds for di-
vorce." "You don't? Well, theu, put an
injunction or two onto him—big oneH as
you can get—for he's awful slippery. I'm
told they're using them quite extensively
on the players; why not on the cranks?"
[Harper's Bazar.
Here- Is mora merriment for Mr, Dana.
Tho Suu says: "Hornung went to second,
and before anybody knew it he bad safely
stole third." "Had stole" is au author-
ized expression in sporting circles, but it is
mighty poor English for a great newspaper.
Furthermore,to "steal safely"is an extrava-
gance, for if the runner was not safe he
could not have stolen the base. Mr. liana
mustgivo tho sporting column of tho Sun a
little moro attention. [Kansas City Star.
Somo editorial writer of the Chicago
Times thinks thusly: "Those wonders of
the nineteenth century who, under the able
direction of the distibguished leader, Cap-
tain Comiskey, swat balls over the diamond
when they do not strike out, havo won
among the stars the distinguishing name of
comets. The name seems to be justified not
only by tho conduct, but by the fact that
thoy aro developing into a large and ro-
splendent tall."
From the city of Quaker simplicity,
brotherly love and George Washington
Childs comes the following literary effort:
"Adrian C. Anson's two days' float in the
Quaker city tureen rather nettled the old
man, so this morning ho called all his men
into his bed room and spoke a few burning
words unto them. 'Young fellows, sections
of Anson's great job lot combination,' said
he, 'I will have no more of this. No longer
shall your decayed endeavors compel my
noblo 'nibs' to be immersed in the Quaker
city sewer. Little does it become the great
Adrip.n, the daring daBher of tho diamond,
the gazelle-footed base runner of the league
to float ou supic surface. Iu fact, he won't
have it. Mine eye hath hit on apoiter's
blemish on tho Interior wall of our tomb
and your noble 'cappy'is going to put hi*
foot on it and crawl out, and by the great
red beard of your brawny leader, it be-
hooves you to get underneath and push.'"
THE SLAVE's LAMENT.

Make me a slavo again, well-dressed and flush!

And I'm now in the soup, which is twenty feet

Give to me shackles instead of stale beer-
Toll without recompease, freedom in vain.
Take them and make me a poor slave again 1

pulpit, home and In the street.
Cured by Cuticura;
For about thirteen years I have been troubled!
with eczorna or some other cutaneous disease,
which all remudles failed to foure. Hearing of'
the Cdticura Hubbdies, I resolved to give'
them a trial. I followed the directions oare--
fully, and it affords me much pleasure to say:
that before using two boxes of tie cimcdra,
foar cakes of cdlcdra Soap and one bottle or.
Ccttiouba Resolvent, I 77z? entirely cured, i
In addition to my own case my uaSr "J8?!
about 6 months old, was suffering with what ».
supposed to bo the same disease as mine, to'
such an extent that his head was coated over;
with a solid scab, from which there was a con-
stant flow of pus which was sickening to look]
upon, besides two large tumor-like kernels on(
the baok of his head. Thanks to your wonder-,
ful Cutiol'iia Remedies, his scalp is perfectly,
well, and the kernels have been scattered so;
that there Is only one little place by bis loft ear,;
and that is healing nicely. Instead of a coating;
of scabs he has a fine coat of hair, much better
than that which was destroyed by the disease,,
1 would that the whole world of sufferers from,
blood and skin disesaes knew the value of your
Cuticura Rbmkdies as I do. CcnccnA Be.;
