BASE ball a sure thing. Tlie Franchise for Savannah Bought by a Savannah Man. D. Miller Contracts the League Eights and Privileges Here—A Stock Company to Be Formed and a Team to Be Secured at Once—An Effort to Secure McCloskey as Manager. Xhe announcement in the Morning j,- e ws a few days ago that the base ball franchise here had been purchased, created a good deal of talk among the ••fans.” The franchise is now held By Mr. Jeff p. Miller who has received the formal transfer from Jimmie Manning. The terms of the sale are private but this vili be of little interest to the ball loving people in Savannah compared with the fact that base ball is assured for the sum mer months. A stock company will be formed and Immediate steps taken to organize a good club. Mr. Miller is now in communication W ith John J. McCloskey whom, he wants to secure as a player-manager. McClos hev was with Montgomery last season, anil is considered a tip-top player, and can get together a rattling team. The salary list all over the country will be lower than ever and players are not so autocratic as formerly, and do not de mand large slices of advance money. The club will probably have a paid up capital of $2,500, which is considered am nio to get along smoothly. It is a well known fact that Manning made a good ibing out of base ball here last season, and there will be no difficulty in disposing of the stock of the new club. There are two good ball grounds near the electric roads—the Bolton Street park and the old Pompeiian grounds, neither of which has been definitely decided upon yet. Mr. Miller will attend the meeting at the Southern league to he held at an early date and further details of the com ing season will then be announced. Sa vannah is on the schedule committee, and efforts will be mude to have the games in this city when the patronage is the largest. Savannah can easily support a good club, and now that there are to be ball games this year there te no doubt the large attendance of last summer will be repeated. It is said that Macon and Columbus are trying to secure the Augusta franchise. Should Macon get it, Charleston, Savan nah, Macon ana Atlanta will form the eastern circuit while the western circuit will be made up of Nashville, Memphis, New Orleans and Mobile. Frank Connaughton, who caught last year in Savannah, has signed With Bos ton. Ollie Beard will manage the Charleston team. Ted Sullivan has been engaged to man age the Atlanta team, and is now busy signing his players. Atlanta will give him all the desired financial support and the club has instructed him *o have nothing but “fancy brights” on the team. Jim Manning has signed some of the Savannah players for his Kansas City team. A number of the Southern League players are now in the Western League. Manager' Stallings, of Nashville, has booked five good men, but will not give the names to the public. Montgomery will probably enter the league before the season closes. Mobile has all her club signed except a shortstop and a fielder. Ted Sullivan has a great reputation for his coaching abilities and It is worth the price of admission to hear him rattle the best of teams. , A correspondent of the Sporting News tells the following good story on Sul livan: “In one game at Birmingham last sea son Ted needed two runs to tie and three to win, when he went to bat in the ninth inning. He and Miller occupied their usual position and both in uniform. As the first man came up end the opposing pitcher was preparing to deliver the ball •Ted addressed Miller as follows: ‘Well, Charlie, you know we never take supper without a victory.’ ‘Of course not,’re sponded Miller. “Well, yer gwine to go hungry to-night, Mr. Sullivan,” chimed in an old colored man, but he didn't; they won the game before their opponents got their bearings. “I'll take the Moon,” said Ted; “I’ll take the Stars,” responded Miller. ' High sky,” said Ted, aDd the batsman cracked out a hit. “Tuscaloosa,” yelled Miller. "Alabama,” came from Ted, and hang went another hit. Each and every man that came up either got a hit or a base on balls, and won the game before any one knew how it was done. The opposing fielders were mystified from start to finish, and a more disap pointed lot of spectators and ball players was never seen before, and yet everybody was in good humor with Ted. The caseof the Macon Base Ball Club vs. the Southern League has been postponed. Judge Bartlett who was to try the case is sick and the matter will probably not come up until next month. LAUREL GROVE FILLING UP. Pretty Nearly All the Burial Lots Taken, Mr. George W. Alley has filed his first annual report as keeper of Laurel Grove cemetery. The number of interments during 1893 was 1,819, of which 394 were white and 044 colored. The total number of interments in the cemetery since 1852, when it was first opened, is 43,659, of which 15,808 were white and 27,851 colored. Of the 374 whites buried during last year, 286 died in the city, 63 out of the city ahd 25 were stillborn and premature infants. . Of the 944 colored interments, 761 died m the city, 66 outside and 117 were still horn and premature infants. Luring the year the superintendent sold thirty-six lots in the white cemetery anil thirteen in the colored, receiving SBIO tor the first and $132 from the second. Hie receipts from burial fees were $1,319, making the total receipts of the cemetery for the year $2,261. _ fhe expenses for the year were $7,412.60. Ihe largest item of expense was the ' va Kes of the employes, which amounted to $6,567.49. The salary of keeper was 96 and $420 wad paid for a detective. There were 244 interments at the city’s expense during the year, of which fifty three were white and 191 were colored. Ihe report says the cemetery is in good ‘■oadition with the exception of the fences, which will require considerable repairing this year, the hedge which had been planted to take the place of the fence I toying of very slow growth. Mr. Alley says. In his report, that there is considerable ground within the cemetery which if properly drained and graaed can be made use of for burial pur poses. He says if the city will furnish him a mule and cart and the necessary amount of drain pipe he will be able to Put this ground in good condition with very little extra expense to the city. The number of available lots unsold in the cemetery is very small. Official Record for ths Horning News.

Heal TuysELr.— Medical Review. “Young Men Who Succeed.” Editor Morning News: Your article on "Young Men Who Succeed” is a gem. It is full of practical common sense and business all through. Every young man should have a copy of it, and as hoys leave school or college it should be handed to them. Your writer in the past had a good deal to do with boys and young men. Some turned out well, others were no ac count. Some were mere machines, others were active, wideawake and thinkers. I write this article to give point to your sensible remarks. Some thirty or more years ago, a boy about 15 or 16 went into the office of a merchant and asked for employment. The merchant did not need any one, but asked the boy what he could do. "Do anything you tell me to do,” came the an swer. His frank, candid, open manner struck the merchant, and he said to him: “Well, I will try you. I want you to sweep out this room and put things in order. Begin to-morrow morning.” The next morning the room was swept and put in order. The merchant came down and was pleased with appear ances. “Anything more to do?” asked the boy. He was given something else to do. The merchant thought he would test his honesty, as he liked the way he worked. He wanted to see if the boy was trustworthy, a very important point with business men. State or Weather. The merchant let drop on the floor be fore he left his office, five cents, knowing the boy would find it in the morning when he swept the floor. Next morning the boy handed him the money and said he found it on the floor. The merchant tried him then with a dollar, and perhaps more. The boy found it and returned it. The merchant saw that he was a boy of principle and could be trusted. In time he rose from one position to another. By the time he was 35 years of age, he was head clerk. On one occasion, tho merchant said to him: “I want that cotton weighed, marked and shipped to-morrow morn ing.” “Yes, sir.” The next morning when the merchant came down to his office, about 8 or 9 o’clock, he saw the clerk sit ting in the office reading a paper. Said the merchant: “I thought I told you I wanted that cotton shipped.” “It is shipped.” said the clerk. “When?” asked the merchant. “On the first outgoing freight train,” replied the clerk. “When did you begin?” asked the merchant. “At daylight this morning,” answered the clerk. Nothing more was said. The merchant, on one occasion, talking with other merchants, said: “I have the best clerk in the city, the best business man 1 ever had; he is a whole team in himself.” One of the merchants present did not forget that expression, and seeing .the young man about a week afterwards asked him what he was get ting as a salary. “One hundred dollars a month,” answered the clerk. “I tell you what I will do,” said the merchant. “Iwill give you $1,500 a year.” “I will think about it,” said the clerk. He went to his employer and said to him, “I am of fered $1,500 by Mr. Brown, and I must look out for my own interests.” “You can't leave me,” said the merchant, “1 will give you $1,500. In time again, he was offered $3,000. The merchant saw that other merchants knew his worth, and to hold so good a man he said, “I see that you are wanted by others, and to cut this matter short, I will take you in to copartnership.” The moral is plain. That boy begin ning as be did made himself useful. He became a necessity. He was reliable, faithful, useful and helpful. He had the right ambition in the right way. It paid him well in life. R. M. O. A widower, aged 84, married a girl of 19. The local paper reported the wedding as fol lows: When Mr. X. lost his wife a year ago, it was feared that he would become de mented.
