THE JURY STILL OUT.
No Agreement up to Midnight in the
Fogarty Case.
The jury in Thomas Fogarty’s ease re
mained out Friday night, yesterday and
last night without agreeing. It is generally
believed that the jurors stand ten for con
viction and two for acquittal ora verdict of
shooting not in his own defense.
The Sheriff and bailiffs who have charge
of the jury say that no one outside of the
jury room knows whether there are one,
two, three, four or five in favor of acquit
tal. Those who know the jury think they
have a pretty good idea of how it stands,
and who one at least if not two of the ob
stinato jurors are.
It was expected yesterday that Judge
Adams would keep the jury out over Kim
duy, and numbers were heard to remark
that they would like to see the panel kept
out until it did agree. Some sighed for the
oldeu time when tiie judges would take dis
agreeing juries around on the circuit. This
jury is remarkably quiet. Sheriff Ronan
says that it is one of the quietest he has ever
had. Up to midnight the jurors had not
talked very much about the case. Once in
awhile some reference would be mode to it,
but as a rule other subjects were discussed.
A number of pei-soii-. who were interested
in the case hung around the court house
until midnight thinking that a mistrial
would be declared then. Fogarty was taken
to jail Friday night, and will remain there
until the jury agrees or is discharged.
THE ORPHANS' HOME.
The Corner Stone to be Laid To-Mor
row Afternoon.
The corner-stone of the Episcopal Or
phans’ Home new building at Liberty und
Jelfersou streets will be laid to-morrow
afternoon at 5 o’clock. Rev. Thomas Boone
will conduct the services. The same cere
mony will be used as in the case of churches.
A platform will he erected
for tho clergy of -the city
and benches will lie placed near for any
who attend. The home, while under the
influence of the Episcopal Church of this
diocese, is not a sectarian charity. Orphan*
aro taken without regard to the creed of
their parents, everything depending upon
the means at the dispi isa lof the home’s man
agement.
The building, when completed, will be one
of the handsomest structures in the city.
The management, however, requires con
siderable means to carry out the plans and
complete and equip the home as it desires.

Wyl.org, Riga. Tiflis. Rostoff and Batoum.
He' has appointed William N. King, Jr.,
o\ Lieutenant United States Navy, a son of
the late I>r. William N. King, of tiiis city,
as his private secretary. Mr. King will
not go with Col. Way to St. Petersburg,
but will leave in about a month. He will
be a •companied to Paris by Mi’s. Way, who

THE HOME CLUB’S START.
NASHVILLE D3FEATED IN A VERY
CLOSE GAME.
Standing of the Club; at tho End of .the
First Week-New Orleans in the Lead
and Savannah Fourth - The Results of
Yesterday’s Games Savannah and
Memphis the Winners Bad Umpiring
at Nashville.
The fust week of the Southern League
season ended yesterday Savannah has
played 7 games and won 2, one from Mem
phis and one from Nashville; Charleston
has played ti and won 1; Nashville has
played 5 and won 3, and Memphis has play
e l 7 and won (i. New Orleans has won 7
straightjiind stands at the le ad of the league.
Mobile has not won a single game. In spite
of its crippled condition the home club is
fourth on the list with a percentage of .333
games won, leading Charleston by . 157.
GETTING A START.
Yesterday’s victory in Nashville gives Br.-
vannah a start. Entslic, who pitched his
first game with the club, was very effective
and had good, control of the bail. The
Nashville hatters hud hard work to find his
delivery and got but eight hits altogether.
Savannah batted Corcoran for eleven hits
and thirteen bases. The chances are good
for the home club to win Friday’s deferred
game, which will be played to-day. Savan
nah will then push Nashville closely for
third place.
The number of games played, tho num
ber lost and won, the pereeutage of games

It will Vie impossible before the end of
another week or two to estimate the relative
strength of the clubs. New Orleans is at
the head of the list now, having won every
game. The next series will bring Charleston
and New Orleans, Mobile and Savannah,
and Nashville and Memphis together, and
the series following Savannah will play New
Orleans and Charleston will play Mobile.
Nashville and Memphis will not meet the
Gulf teams until the second week in May,
but it will be possible to get a pretty good
idea of what all the clubs aro made of by
the end of next week.
Mobile seems to have ; Hayed in hard luck
from the very start, but is likely to make a
better showing this week. Yesterday’s
game with New Orleans will lie played to
day.
Burbridge Gets Even.
Nashville, April 23.—Savannah won to
day as Nashville won yesterday by the
grace of the umpire, who was as much off as
ever, but equalized matters by giving Sa
vannah the game that Nashville earned in
return for Savannah's game which he gave
to Nashville on Thursday. The game was
well played bv the home team with but two
errors, while Savannah (Hayed loosely and
had eight errors charged against them. The
visitors bunched their hits well and batted
Corcoran fairly.

Time of game—One hour and forty-five min
utes.
The deferred game between Savannah and
Nashville will be played to-morrow. It is
understood that various city and county
officials have been soon, and that there* will
be no interruption of the game, though it is
against the State law to play on Sunday. It
is believed, however, that public sentiment
will sustain Sunday games. It is certain
that the game will draw the largest au
dience seen here for a long time, as Sunday
games were aiways popular in Naahvillo.

that there will probably boa chance for
Birmingham to enter the league before the
season is very far advanced. Base hall is a
popular sport in Birmingham, and if the
club does succeed in getting in the league
every game will be well attended.”
The Nashville Union says that Brower is
a very poor guardian of first base and that
he is” not a Jimmy Fields by any means.
The American, in alluding to the team,
says: “The visitors"were surprisingly strong
and the wonder is that they should have
received three defeats from the Sneed team.
They are very weak at short. They field
pluckiiy and bat hard. Their battery,
McArthur and Parker, showed up very
well, the former at times pitching brilliantly.
The latter Is a good catcher but evidently
lac -s head.”
The Nashville papers say that Umpire
Burbridge’s decision which cost Savannah
Thursday’s game was one of the rankest
ever made on the Nashville diamond. The
Union says that there are good grounds for
Manager "Morton’s action in protesting the
game, and calls tho decision a rotten one.
The American says virtually the same thing
iu these words: “lathe fitth inning Bur
bridge made a very erroneous decision,
which cost the visitors the game. They had
six rims, while tho locals had only two.
The Nashvilles were at bat and two men liad
been put out, while two were on bases,
second and third. Hayes knocked a long
foul fly to left field, which after a long run
Campau muffed. Hayes went to seeon land
the two men on yases, Hayes himself, and
still another man scored. The fly was clear
ly a foul, though not so declaredliy the um
pire.” There stems to be little doubt that
the protest will be allowed. Bets on the
game may have been paid a little prema
turely.

Crumbs of Comfort.
Life is not altogether a hum-drum, mono
tonous kind of an existence. The world is full
of good things, placed here for man’s
special benefit, if we would only stop long
enough to appreciate them and not run pell

grumbling with everybody, and regretting
that we were not here when the world was
made, to offer some suggestions that would
have rectified all the imaginary wrongs.
We cannot live always, and New York
and Liverpool exchange will do us no good
on the other side, and why not make the
best of our stay. D. B. Lester has one of
the finest stores South, filled with the best
of everything in the eating and drinking
