cau.se the season t* earlier. On the whole
there has been a large iuuhlkt of visitors to

A Good Suggestion.
Editor Morninu News: Iu an editorial of
to-day’s issue you take it for granted that
the President’s visit to Atlanta next Octo
ber will necessarily include a visit to Savan
nah, “the most beautiful city of the South.”
If lie conies he will of course visit the Bay
and the Moß.vnto News, and in order that
he may carry away with him as favorable
an opinion of our city a- a commercial cen
tre, allow me to suggest that the Street and
Lane Committee may see its way clear to
remove from your neighborhood and that of
the City Exchange the unsightly piles of
stone and rubbish which have been an eve
sore to every one, stranger or citizen, for
many years. ,sj_

NOW FOR THE PENNANT.
THE SOUTHERN LEAGUE SEASON
TO OPEN TO-DAY.
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

Washington Women.
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. To any one annoyed with {wins these
plasters are a certain remedy.

Easter Joys.
Asa boy looks forward with happy heart to
ward his first pants, so do many grown up men
enjoy the donning of anew suit. Many men
may deny this, but with the great majority it is
a natural and irrepressible feeling. To all we
now announce our regular spring display of '
Dress and Business Suits, Ktjff, Soft and Straw
Hats. Catchy Neckwear, Elegant Hosiery and
all Furnishings required by men and hoys' IVe
praised our stock some last week the half lias

thing like an intelligent description of the lianll
some materials in vogue this season. We ask a
visit—the goods and prices will do the balance.
We can guarantee tailor fits and tailor work

charge to purchaser, book at our line of Shirts,

exclusive furnishing stores, as we can supply
identical articles on a smaller margin of profit.
