FEATURES OF TUESDAY’S DISASTER AT SHREVEPORT.
Cracker 9 s Next Hike Takes
Bunch to Pelicans 9 Nest
The Atlanta team finishes Ita stay In
lira fertile Wednesday night and blkea then
to New Orleans for a session with the
Fell can a.
A trip to Charley Frank's burg la usually
regarded aa pretty hard luck, hut mnybe
the Crackers will escape with their Urea.
Just st present the Pelicans are not quit
nt their taat. Ilreltensteln. though hr
pltehed well Tuesday, does not yet seem
to lie quite t hla ohji self; mil Phillips la
clearly “off." Otiese la getting hla humps
nnd the team la not playing the game of
whtrli It ought to l>e capable.
The luat New Orleans game cornea June
17. Then follow In rapid aucreaalon three-
game aeries with Memphis and Little Hock.
Then the team cornea luick home.
Tint hard aonk handed out by Tommy
Fisher, of Hhrereport, Tuesday dropped the
Cracker* out of Ilf at place. They are sec-
ond by .02), however, and atlll hare a
nice lead over the Pelicans, which are
third.
Birmingham Is pressing New Orleans
lose, and If the llarous were at »home
they might hare some chance. Aa It If,
hpwerer. It will undoubtedly only he a mat-
ter of time before Memphis pulls out of
the second division and drops the Birming
ham hunch hark a peg.
Nashville la comlug .pretty strong these
days ami Montgomery will have to watch
out If she does not want to drop back Into
the sub cellar.
Little Itock still lias eighth place cinched.
Hrerylmdy changes partners Thursday or
Tuesday 9 s Baseball Doings
Served in Little Chunks
A game or two wHI put Burnum In nuch
hapa that he will he the equal of-any of
hem. The kid la one of the few young-
iters who does not round Into form until
lain In the season.
The expected off day did not eventuate.
The Atlanta player*. Instead of sailing for
New Orleans Wednesday, spent the day In
hrereport and played off the game they
listed on Sunday.
It la cheerful to note that Wbltey Morse
III come liack Into form. He whacked out
wo hits out of four times up Tuesday
and neceptad live chances without an error.
.Kvert nnd Hid Minttb got a couple of
blta apiece, out of four times at list; and
llurnum got one lilt out of three attempts.
Oee, Fox made an error! That la cer
tainly something unusual. The long boy’a
rr r*'cs are about at rare aa Icicles on the
Kquator.
In the game nt New Orleans Tuesday. I'u-
fortunately the youngster got poor support.
Umpire Buckley was assaulted nt Little
Rock Ttleadoy by Catcher Anderson, of the
Traveler* Anderson waa suspended, and
It la practically certain that he will he
dealt with na his .case deserves. It will
hurt IJttle Itock to lose Anderson at this
atnge of the game, lint President Kava-
naugh la not the man who hesitates In a
case like this.
Pitcher Quick. the new addition to the
Little Itock staff, got hla humps quite
speedily. Birmingham liattera found him
for 12 hits for a total of 20 bases Tuesday.
Haller made two three-baggers In the
game Tuesday. That speaks pretty badly
for Pitcher Quick, ns nny one who hna
seen Hallre hat will admit.
Nashville made It three straight from
Memphis over In Bed Kim park. Uee, hut
that must have been a Jar for Bahh.
Tuesday the Fluultea beat Httggs. the man
who trimmed Atlanta so neatly last week.
Owens, the catcher whom Babb declares
will soon Ih* the l>e*t In the league, made
tw.» error.- Tueeday out of three chance*

Brooklyn likewise abut out Chicago^
Charley Murphy wsa probably thereupon
reduced to tears.
heaver scored a live hit game and a shut
out Tuesday. Pretty good for a cripple.
Both foams made
the same number of hits and Cleveland
made tlve error* while New York played
perfect hall. And yet the victory went

I’M GOING TO
RAISE A ROW!
There's a store on White
hall street that is feeding
and clothing a whole
bunch of salesmen. I am
one against many, but I’m
going right down there
and face them all. I am
ashamed of the suit I have
on. They sold it to me. I
asked for a good one, I
paid for a good one.
When they asked me
$25 for it I said: "I don’t
want to pay a month’s
rent for you/’ "A month’s
rent," said he; “why $25
will pay about two min
utes’ expense of this store.” Whew!
Why didn’t I take the hint? Billings told me
to go to the Globe, says I could save $10.00.
That’s about right, the usual $25 suit about
town is just $15 here. What’s the answer?
