SOUTHERN BELL WINS SERIES. fipeclal to The Georgian* Royston, Gn., Sept. 1—The Roys ton Rompers went down before the strong ag gregation corralled by the Southern Bell Telephone and Telegraph Company tsam In the third game of the series Saturday by the score of 5 to 5. It was n snappy con test, and with the exception of two In nings, there was little doing In the scoring line, four runs being made by Royston In the first Inning and five by the Southern Bell crowd In tho third Inning. Two er rors, one base on halls, a hit batter, cou pled with three opportune hits off Brown, scored the five runs. Both pitchers were In fine form, although Brown had pitched and won the first game of the series, and deserved by bis pitching to have won Saturday. The batteries were Brown and Colie, and Mangum and J. fltte. This winds np the season here, and It has been n very soot! one for Royston, as they wbu a good majority of tho games played and went up against some of the strongest nmnteurs In this section. The playing was done mostly hy .home boys, very few hired men being used. Tho team has been fortunate In having Coach Stouch with them for nl»out two months to de velop the material, aud well did he show bis ability. Some of tbe players had never played In a match game before this year, but were brought out, nnd played fine ball. The Bell team played nice ball, and are a gentlemanly set of men.

His catching haa been high- class, and his stick work timely. The pitchers have all shown fine form. Hughes has been tbe same old steady Tom, who has been winning games for Atlanta all the seasou with his faucy curves, great control and fine head-work. Zollor has pitched as good ball as he has shown at any time this season. Ils seems to have retained all of his early knack, and has been "puttin' over and rankin' ’em hit," which li secret of any pitcher's success. 8parks has done first-class work.

Tho same afternoon, though, he came back In tbe second game of the dou* ble-header nnd allowed Hhreveport only a single hit—and that one after an error had been made ou an easy fly, which should have retired the side. Harley haa been In rare form, except In that unfortuuate first game In New Orleans, and that day bis support was enough to • unnerve a Mnthewson or a McUlnnlty. Fox's work has been the asms steady kind which has put him ln a class altogeth er by himself among the first basemen of the league, and the same may be said of Jordan. Morse did good work as long as he stuck to the trtttn, and Hoffman showed unexpectedly good form, both at short and third—such good form, In fact, thnt many fans who saw him play believe thnt Klly Hmlth made a mistake In not having him with tho team all the season. Rid Smith did idee work behind tho bat and at third, and Crosier nnd Winters have played tbelr usual faultless game In the field. Next to Hoffman, Evers proved the surprise of the trip. His work In center field has been a revelation, and he has been hitting the ball right on the trade mark. Altogether, the players have done work which has been gilt-edged, and Atlanta has Just cause to be proud of her baseball tsam. ANNI8TON CLOSES SEA80N; Special to The Georgian.

Standard Phoa AT THE THEATERS •OIMIIMSMIIMIMMIMI New Orleans papers claim that ths New Orleans Baseball Association has cleared $20,000 on the season. As ths association Is generally supposed to be In baseball for the money which Is In It, Its hackers art to be congratulated on tbelr success. However, $20,000 seems to be hitting ft pretty high. That sum Is probably at least two-thirds the face value of the capital stock of the New Orleans club. And tbe attendance at New Orleans has fallen off this year, according to the figures submitted to Judge Kavauaugh. Dan rfchnlnger again presented tbe Ba rons with a. run.

This does not do the game any good. A loser Is generally a knocker and lu New Orleans the lasers seem to be unusually bit ter and vociferous about it. Harley unloaded the discredit of losing n game onto Zeller Friday.

Much Interact Is being shown In the Casino bill for the week that corn* mences Monday night, at th* Ponce DeLeon amusement resort. It haa been much In evidence that * great many local theater-goers care a whole lot for good vaudeville, and that the Casino Is one of the real popular places of entertainment And now with an exceptionally goo'd strong, original and new bill of vaudeville, and the theater as comfortable as It was In. tended to be In this kind of weather aeason, there Is nothing wonderful about the Interest that Is being so prominently evidenced. Bell 'phone 218 North has been In demand. This la the 'phone at Ponce DeLeon park, over which a great many orders for aeata have been taken, and that will become a decidedly popular number within a short time. The ar rangement works splendidly. A thea ter-goer simply places an ordar for seats and then calls for the reserva tion* ot the Casino box office at the time of the performance, and such a plan can't be Improved upon. The bill for the week la of excep tional Intereet. It Is well mad* and there Je much variety. There arc good comedlana, pretty girls, new Ideas in vaudeville, and much that I, novel. The bill Is not all unknown locally and the word of the knowing ones predicts a wonderful euccew. The Three Coates, 'of which Char lotte Coatee Is the atar, will offer a comedy playlet said to be th* founda tion for a coming musical comedy. In which the trio will be featured.
