On the whole there has been a large iuuhlkt of visitors to the State tl/s year, probably larger than any previous winter, but they have not been as thick in a\iy one place, liecause there are two or threb times the number of places for them to gi\ as in any previous year.” A decree has been passed in the United States Circuit Court in the case of the Bank <>i New York against the Georgetown and Lancs railroad, confirming the sale of the i(>ad last, year by order of the receiver, E.

Savannah at Memphis, Charleston at Nashville, and Mobile at New Orleans —McArthur and Parker to Be the Home Club's Battery Guessing the Winners of the Inaugural Games - Mobile’s Lack of Confidence- Presi dent Morrow’s Circular. Savannah at Memphis. Charleston at Nashville. Mobile at New Orleans. This is tho way the Southern League base ball season will open to-day. The home club reached Memphis last night and will play there to-day, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday’, and will then go to Nashville. In the present condition the club is in it is hardly to be expected that it will do much with the Memphis team, which, without doubt, is the strongest in the league. McArthur and Parker will be Savannah’s battery. In spite of tho six successive defeats hy Charleston, the club may make a better showing with the Mem phians than a good many people are looking tor. The game will he reported in detail bv tel egraph at the Theatre, and an opportunity will be afforded to see' just what the club does. The management of the detailed re ports has arranged to liave ushers in attend ance at the Theatre every afternoon, and every convenience will lie provided for the comfort of those who attend. The front rows of the dress circle will lie reserved for ladies, and an effort will be made to mako the reports, so far as is possible, take tho place of the games at the grounds. The winners of to day’s games are pretty generally conceded to be New Orleans, Nashville and Memphis. There was some small tietting last night on the result of the Memphis game, but very little was staked on the result at Nashville and New Orleans. Charleston is counting on a sure wipe-out of Bradley's men. Mobile, from the reports-received from there yesterday, is in a very uncertain state, and is not at all confident of the future. Mobile, like every other city which has base ball, has got to have its first year’s experience, and there is a gixxl deal to learn. With good manage ment though there is no reason why the Gulf City should not be one of the tiost in the circuit, and as the season advances and the patronage of the games everywhere in crease, it undoubtedly will come to the front along with Savannah and Charleston and the Tennessee towns. SOUND TALK FROM MORROW. The Southern Lea gue’s President Deals out Some Practical Advice. President Morrow lia-s issued the following circular to club officials, umpires, managers, players and scorers of the Southern League: “The championship season of 1887 will open Saturday’. Before going into the struggle I ask you to pause and refle< t and resolve that, as far as it is in your power to do so, you will assist the undersigned to conduct the sport in such a manner as will command the respect and support of every patron of the game throughout the South. It is useless to throw the blame for our past trouble upon any particular club, official, player or um pires. Let us assume that we have all lieen guilty, to a more or less extent, of doing things that ought not to liave lieen done. While I believe that our enemies have exag gerated our faults, and that we have really committed no great blunders, yet the past history of the Southern League is not one that we should feel proud of. The language of this letter may appear unnecessarily plain and harsh, and, if it .km*, I wish to beg the pardon of those to whom it is addressed and assure them that it is written in a spirit of kindness and good feeling for everyone, and solely for the gixxl of the sport. “Club officials, managers, hall players, scorers and umpires arc notified tiiat we have in print u Southern League Guide, and it contains out- constitution, by-laws, playing and scoring rules', anil is printed for your guidance and instruction. Twenty-five copies of the Guide will be sent to each club, so that everyone can read and study them. Every rule laid down in the guide will' tie enforced with out fear or favor, and I warn all violators that fines imposed will be collected. “Club officials are requested to call the manager’s attention to the rales and in turn request him to instruct the players. Um pires must be respected anil they have all lieen instructed to impose fines for viola tions; captains alone of contending teams will lie allowed to question the umpire’s de cisions, and if others persist in doing so thov must in every case pay for the privilege. If the umpires fail to impose the fines they must pay for their failure to do so. If it is possible, 1 intend to break up the disgusting kicking and wrangling on the hall liel<i Profanity and vulgarity on the diamond will lie punished by the infliction of the very heaviest fines allowed under the rales. “If the president, secretary or manager of a club, after a fair trial, drem an umpire incomjietent, I would U> glad to receive o written statement of such official, stating his objection and his reason for the same. I will pay no attention l*> telegraphic protests against umpires, nor from any official who makes up Ins protests from hearsay. In every case protests must be signed by officials who have lieen eye witnesses to the work of the protested um - pire. In conclusion, I would say that I re quest and expect the hearty co-operation of every one who has the general good of the sport at heart. The object of this letter is to call your attention to the Guide and its content* and to impress iqum you the fact that every rule contained therein will be rigidly enforced.” THE OUTLOOK AT MOBILE. The Club Determined to Pull Through in Spite of All Difficulties. Mobile, Ala., April 15.—The Mobile team will open the league games at New Or leans to-morrow. In the meantime the club's affairs at home are in a hod way. President Al>e Hpira, and Treasurer J. AV. McGuire, resigned last night, alleging that the demands of private business would not allow them to jierfonii the duties of the cili ces satisfactorily. The real i-mi-- j., that close calculations show a consul*- • less to the association. The jumps vannoh and Charleston are a heavy er;|x*n.s* now that full fare is demanded by the railroads. During the next t welve days t he club's exiien scs will Iteatmut f'l,loo a day, while the re ceipt* <-ai mot roach *1 ,oon There are but, (CiOO in t he club's treasury, which is not enough to carry the nine very far. unless a run of luck is rni-ouiitered. In the home games the re ceipt* lnsl Sunday, when Mew Orleans and Mobile played‘here and attracted a large crowd, were $343. This, taken as an indi cation of future patronage, is not encour aging. E.

Here is what Mr. Eugene Field, of the Chicago News, thinks Mr. Pat. Donan thinks of the women he has met in Wnsh ington: "What gave the season its brilliancy? Why, the women, to be sure. In spite of all the trash and twaddle of such penny-a-line libelees as Henry James, there are no women on Cod's earth that compare with our American women. A lady in Washing ton the other day asked me if in all my travels I had not found some country I pre ferred to my own. I said: “Madam, when 1 contemplate our American politics and jtolitieians 1 do it with a patent nipfier clothespin on my nose. When I look at our Congresses, Legislatures and Boards of Al dermen, or flunk of the vile herd that we allow to vote and control our national, .State and municipal governments, I am tilled with unutterable loathing, and often feel like expatriating myself. But one thing holds me true to my native land. 1 might change my country, but where could I ever find such countrywomen? I have seen the women of nearly every land and race under hea\ en, and one genuine American girl or woman combines in herself the best and loveliest qualities of them all—the fire and sentiment of the ideal .Spanish senoritu or Italian sig nora. the exquisite taste of the French mad amp or mademoiselle, and the pure, high womanhood of the English maid or matron, with a grace and lieauty to be found in our own glorious hemisphere alone. There is no God but Allah, and our women are His masterpieces ’ ” How to Get Rid of the Side-Ache. Who has not suffered from side-ache? We all had it when we ran races at school—wh have it when we overwork ourselves at any age. It comes on, ns everyltody knows, suddenly. By using one of Allcock’s Por ous Plasters it goes away nearly as quickly. F. Roessner, of No. 53*5 West Fifty eighth street, New York, says: “It is with pleasure I write these lines in testimony to the powers of Allcock’s Por ous Plasters. I have been somewhat an noyed with serious pains in my sides, for wluiji several medicines have lieen pre scribed. but to no avail, ami through thead vi> e.. a friend I tried two Allcock’s Por ous Plasters, and the relief they have given me is loth satisfactory and astonish ing.
