mond in Savannah and Elsewhere.
Southern League Notes.
Manager MeCloskey has gathered
his players into the Savannah fold
and will have them at work within
the nexf ten days. The following will
comprise the team:
Jantzen, catcher.
John Ramsey, pitcher.
Jumbo Welch, first tase.
Sam Larocque, second base.
Hutchinson, third base.
Peeples, short stop.
Butler, left field.
McCann, center field.
MeCloskey, right field.
Ramsay is a wonderful left-handed
pitcher. In 1886 the Cincinnatis ofiered
F O.OtO to the I ouisville club for his re
lease. Ramsay held the “striker out”
r ; rd then, hating succeeded in striking
ou seventeen men m one came.
He gave up placing ball and went into
business, but MeCloskey induced him to
coMo out of his shell and help bavannah
win the pennant.
OS A STILL HUNT TET.
MeCloskey is on a still hunt for two
more good men to put in the pitcher's hoc,

sure we don’t care to play them.”
Paul Jones, who has signed for the com
ing season as one of the catchers of the
Atlanta team of the Southern League,
was run over by a heavy fire engine Feb.
24. at Danville, and received internal m- j
juries that may prove fatal.
Harry Keenan, who is to do the twirl
ing act for Atlanta, is undoubtedly the
sm illest pitcher in the business. He
actually doesn't weigh more than ninety
five pounds, and can throw twisters that
give the wind a tussle in reaching the
plate. He is simply a physical conun
drum.
THE MOPEL GAME.
A correspondent of the Sporting News
says: “The model game on record, as a
sample of the old fungo hitting days when
they used to bat lively ball and line ’em
out' lor homers, was that played at
Cleveland on May IT, 18T0—twenty-three
years ago—between the local Atlantic's
and the Forest city nine of Cleveland.
At the end of the fifth inning when the
Atlantics gave up the game from sheer
fatigue, the s,ore stood 182 to 1! The
victors then had made 101 first base hits,
with a to.al of ISO bases, including 18
home runs. But this score was excelled
the same year by the Chicago Whi e
Stoeain s at Memphis. Tenn., where the
visi.ors defeated the Blu f City nine by
157 to 1. In .he Cleveland game theseore
at the end of the first,inning s ood at 52
to 0. To ca l such (tames as these ‘ splen
did batting " games is a far e; and yet it
is ust this kind of batting that tueblea.h
ers revel in.”
The “Sporting Life” sa's: If Jack
Highlands, Harvard’s ceienrated left
hand pLeber, is anxious to play bail pro
fessionally, it is qui.e finely that he can
come to terms wi.h the .New lork club.
Cincinna.i would also like to do busi
ness with him.
Sanke.y, the famous evangelist, has a
son who is tr. in ■ lor the position of short
slop on the Princeton base ball team.

pects.

A WEEK OF GOOD PLAYS.
Mrs. John Drew and Stuart Robson
the Star Attractions.
“The Road to Ruin” the Opening Flay
to Be Follawed By th> “Rivals.”
The Two “Dromios” and the First
Presentation of the Comedy “Leap
Year” or the “Ladi s Privilege.”
The theater will be open for five per
formances this week, three nights and
two matinees.
Tuesday matinee—Mrs. Drew in “Road
to Ruin.”
Tuesday night—“ The Rivals.”
Th rsday night and Friday matinee—
Stuart Robeson in "Corned , of Errors.”
Friday night "v-eap Year or the La
dies' Privilege.”
Mrs. John Drew and her company will
give two performances in Sa ann .h this
week. The company includes Mrs. John
Drew, Mis Sidney Drew, Sidney Drew,
Charles B. Han ord, George Os' orne,
Charles E. \ erner. A1 Harris, Charles
Kearney, ldwin Wallace. H. B. Gibus.
Miss Phillis Rankin, and Miss Katie
Hogan. A lea ting manager the other
day made this remark a boat Mrs. Brew :
"Sha stands in petti oats relatively in
the same pcsi ion as Joseph Je ierson
does in pants in oi l come .Ds. The late
Lester w a.lack and other celebrated ac
tors and masters o. dramatic art have
re ogni ,ed her as the queen of legitimate
comedy. I think, as others do. that she
easily occupies this prouf position on
tne ng.ish speaking stage. For years
she has been the foremost evponent of
old comedy. While she was manageress
of the Arch Street Theater in i-huadel
phia the house was the scene of many
famous comedy productio is. The theater
usuahy opened Its seasons e.ery year
w.tii the production of some old play of
that kind that was a source of much
pleasure to her numerous friends and
patrons. Her name is as inseparably
ltn.tcd with the grand performances of
“The Rhals” as that of Mr. „e£ferson.
Her most celebrated play by Sheridan oc
cupies relatively the same place in comedy
as Shakespeare does in tragedy. It be
longs to that class of entertainments
that appeal to the edu at.d class. Old
playgoeis are its friends and younzerones
limi it amusing and entertaining. Age
does no de rease ns popularity an 1 the
best proofiof its consummate merit is the
fact that it has outlived many new come
dies and piays. I might exclaim with
many others, 'may its shadows ne.er
grow less.’ ”
Stuart Robson will play a two nights
and matinee engagement this week open
ing Thursday night with “Comedy of
ErrovsV’ which will be repeated at Fri
day s matinee. Friday night Mr. Rob
son will be seen in me comedy "Beap
Year; or The La lie's Privilege. The l.rst
performance of the "Comedy of Errors,”
of winch ihcre seems to be any record,
was given by the students at Grey's Inu.
during the Christmas holidays in 1594.
A merry night tney had of it, and it
lasted till pretty well into the morning.
Very little mention is made of it from
this time on till IntM when it was acted
before James I. Munden, the well-known
l nglisii i omedian, played the Dromio of
Syracuse to Mr. Kees’ Bromio

great favorite of Munden, aid was ad

from the likeness of the twins, realistic
enough to make the situation seem prob
able. Mr. Stuart Hobson believes
he has overcome this difficulty in
the discovery of his double, Mr Giles
Shine, an actor of well-known ability,
who will play the twin to bis ”, romio of
Syracuse.” The quips and pranks of this
jolly fellow, one of the drollest of Shakes
peare's creations, will find a most humor
ous interpretation at the hands of Mr.
Stuart Robson, whose tal ms as a
comedian, are too well known to need any
comment. The play will have a line
scenic setting, and Mr. Robson has
chosen his company carefully with a
special retercuce to their fitness for the
parts.
Typographical errors are often a source
of cousideraole anno.,anee as well as of
keen humor. Here .s one that caused a
lilt e rycloue in the Salvini company, rn
one of the one night's stand papers, an
advance notice read us follows. "We
are glad to announce Mr. Salvini'* ap
pearan e next Monday in Dumas'inm.oi al
play of the“ihree Guardsmen,” it vvitl
be for one night only.” jhe local man
ager wrote abusi > e letters to the editor of
the paper, and Salvini learning of it wired
a sharp message to Alfred Bradley, his
agent, ( ailing him to account for his care
lessmss. r inally it was traced to a corn
posi.or who bad left out the 4 t’. it should
have read ‘Dumas’ immortai play.
The play attracting most attention in
New Yo.k at present is Finero s “Ama
;ods,” in which c.eorgie Cayvan, Bessie
Tyree and rvatht ine i lorence are attired
in meri's clothing. As they are verv
pretty women th y create a sensa.ion,
and the theater is crowded nightly. Bes
sie Tyree letpso.era fence in masculine
style, T here is nothing new in this idea
o. pretty women dressing as men, and
pre.ending to be o. the sternor sex, as the
same filing is the theme of bhakespeare’s
“move’s i-abor Lost.” Drama.ists of a
former age well knew the charm and nov
elty of making girls assume the male
garb, Donna Hypolita does so in “.■she
Wo aid and bite Wo Ad Not,” and it is
done by female characters in "The Re
cruiting O beer,” “The Country Girl,”
and “As You Like It.”
It is not easy to keep the run of the mar
riages and divorces of actors and
actresses Here are a few of the ex
periences of well-known stage 'cople:
