Fable of Trout and Cat Ends in Muddy Pool Duel
A big man-eating Trout haunts Lone Star waters until a sixty-pound Mud Cat ambushes him. A Sand Crab witnesses the clash, Trout loses a fin and an eye, and the tale ends with Trout's pride foiled and a pending moral. The same issue notes a baseball game where San Antonio beats Galveston 12 to 6, with key homers by Daringer and Thebo.
