INDOOR BASE BALL THE THING.
PLAYERS WANT A LEAGI'E ORGAN
IZED AT ONCE.
Success of the Trl-Cluli I.engne Ijist
Season—ln One Season the Game
Leaped Into Popularity Four
Teams In the Field This Year—Ex
hibition Games to He Played This
Week.
A good many people who found pleasure
In witnessing the games of indoor base
ball which were played by the teams in
the tri-club league last season wonder
why the league has not been organized
this season. It has been given out that
it will be organized early in January, but
the players composing the various teams
and the “fans,” who like to see the games,
see no reason why the league should not
organize now and begin playing at once.
There seems to be no reason why this
should not be done, and there are several
which might be given in favor of an early
organization.
It can be said of indoor base ball that.
It reached a popularity in one season that
other sports have taken years to attain.
The game fc'as almost unknown in Savan
nah until the organization of the teams
by the Y'oung Men’s Christian Association,
the Catholic Library Association and the
oung Men’s Hebrew Association last sea
son. The Y. M. C. A. had played the
game the season before, but only between
teams of this association, and outside of
l, “ ow n members it was almost unknown.
The organization of teams by the three
associations led to the formation of the
tri-club league, which was al first meant
Jo he a small organization and nothing
bae the success it attained was expected
by iis promoters. It was formed more for
tie benefit of the associations and the
Insure and exercise to be derived from
tlie games than anything else. In order
’" by and make the game popular the
e lmission to the games was placed at a
' ty low figure, hut by the end of the
J 1 :lsorl five times that amount would have
been paid willingly by some of those who
had he omo devotees of the game.
J he phenominal popularity of the game
' ls in a sense a result of the rivalry
among the teams, but after the specta

three teams, and have been playing prac
tice games for several weeks. In this way
they expect to bring out the best men in
each association, from which the regular
team will be picked.
The Catholic Library Association and the
Chathams will play a game at the Catholic
Library gymnasium Wednesday night.
The game will be an exhibition, and no ad
mission will be charged. The Library
team will be made up of most of the play
ers on last season’s team, and will be as
follows: Sullivan, catch; Horrigan, pitch;
Golden, first base; Charlton, second base;
Brady, E., third base; Brady, R., right
short stop; Winters, left short stop; Dow
ney, right field; Powers or McCarthy, left
field. The ChAthams team has not yet
been picked but it will be n good one.
There is excellent material for a strong
team in the Chathams and with practice
the military boys will have a good team.
The Y. M. C. A. and the Y. M. H. A.
teams will also play a game this week.
It will take place at 'Masonic hall to-mor
row night and will be between the Bean
eaters of the Y. IM. C. A. and a picked team
from the Y. M. H. A. Both teams are
made up strongly and the game is sure
to be hard played. Being the first of the
season between these two associations
there will be a strong fight for first blood.
The Y. M. H. A. boys will have In their
crack battery, Belsinger and Kayton, and
the Beaneaters will have Thompson and
King in the points.
The teams will play as follows:
Y. M. H. A. Position. Beaneaters.
Kayton catch King
Belsinger pitch Thompson
Frank first base Hipkins
Smith second base Dwelle
Epstein third base Thomas
Weichselbaum ... 1. s. s Ulmer
Lovenstein r. s. s Barbour
Herman right field G. Elton
Stern left field J. Elton
Seats will be provided on the stage and
in the gallery for spectators. An admis
sion fee of 10 cents will be charged, and
the game will be called at 9 o'clock.
The scoring of the games of indoor base
ball will be done differently this year from
last and In the way proscribed by the rules
of the game. The rules followed last year
were the same as is followed in outdoor
games and was entirely wrong. Mr, Frank
Hogan, who did most of the scoring, was
requested to score in the way it was done,
but it has been decided to follow the reg
ular rules in regard to scoring this season.
There are only three columns or credits
in scoring indoor base ball. They are
runs, outs and totals, the latter meaning
the total of bases made by each player. To
find the average of a player it ls necessary
to divide the number of totals, or bases
made, by the sum of the outs and bases
added together.
To the student of the game it will be seen
at a glance that this method ls decidedly
better and more proper than the method
followed in scoring the outdoor game.
NEW BOXING CLUB ORGANIZED.
Arlon Alliletlc Club to Tnke the
Place of the Pastime.
The Pastime Athletic Club, which for a
long time has supplied the pugilistic world
of Savannah with exhibitions, has ended
its checkered career, and is now a thing
of the past. The club has under several
managements given a number of glove
contests, some of which have been suc
cessful, the majority of which, however,
have been failures.
While the Pasftime Club has gone under,
there has arisen another club, and the
promoters promise for it that It will be
a club that is a club. It has been named
the Arlon Athletic Club, and will be man
aged by John Carr and Joe Counihan. The
club’s quarters have not yet been secured,
hut suitable rooms will be engaged on
Broughton street or some other place In
the center of the city. The club will give

There are many admirers of glove con

aged, a club giving entertainments of this
sort ought to be a profitable and success
ful venture.
THANKSGIVING DAY’S RACES.
The Programme of Events at Thun
derbolt Driving Park.
Manager A. P. Doyle is arranging a card
of races for Thanksgiving day at the
Thunderbolt Driving park. Purses will
be offered for two harness races and a
running event. The classes will be so ar
ranged as to allow the fast ones to start
in one of the harness events and the road
sters in the other.
Most of pacers and trotters eligible to the
free fqr all are in good condition and there
ought to be at least four starters in this
race. The purses and classes will be an
nounced early next week.
Tom Kerr, the popular trainer and driv
er, arrived in the city a few days ago. He
will likely have a good one for both har
ness races.
Curley Hudson arrived yesterday and has
his eye on two smooth steppers for the
events.
CANNOT TAKE ANY MORE.
Lnnatic* Must Wait Until a New Col
ored Building Is Constructed.
Judge Hampton L. Ferrill of the court
of ordinary has received a letter from Dr.
T. O- Powell, superintendent of the state
asylum for the insance at Mil
ledgeville, in which he states
It will be impossible for the present to
receive any more male or female colored
lunatics, or any more white males.
The'letter was written on account of ,!ie
destruction by fire on Nov. 9 of the col
ored lunatics’ building, which has neces
sarily caused the crowding of the other
buildings. Dr. Powell states that he will
notify the ordinary Just as soon as It is
possible to receive any one, and states em
phatically that If any persons are sent
there without notification they will be re
turned at once to the counties from which
they are sent.
This seems to emphasize the fact of the
overcrowded condition of the asylum,
about which much has been said and writ
ten, and leaves no doubt but that more
room should be provided in case of such
emergencies.
REFUSED TO PAY CITY FEES.
Wagon Peddler Arrested at the
Market.
R. G. Helmey was arrested by Police
man Davis yesterday, for violating the
n-prket rules and regulations in refusing
to pay the fees required by ordinance for
peddling from wagons on St. Julian street.
The city imposes a tax upon wagons
which take any stand. So long as they
move from house to house, however, they
are not subject to this fee. Helmey pro
tested against payment, and was arrested.
While the talk was going on between the
officer and Helmey, \V. M. Zlpperer ap
peared and argued against the arrest of*
Helmey. The officer placed him under ar
rest also, on the charge of interfering.
Both were taken to the barracks and
docketed for hearings to-morrow morning.
The market clerk says that he has had
some trouble lately with the wagon men
ss a consequence of their refusal to pay
the fees.

NEW TELEPHONE COMPANY’S
PLANS BEING PUSHED.
The Desire of the Incorporatom to
Have All the Stcok Taken in Sa
vannah— Expected That an Ex
change Building Will Be Secured
Within a Few Days—Mr. Howland
Tells What Opposition Companies
Have Dune nt Soule Other Pluces.
No Test Case Yet Made.
The work of the n,ew telephone compa
ny to enter the field here In opposition to
the Southern Bell Telephone Company is
being pushed, and within a short time, it
is stated, steps will be taken toward put
ting in the exchange.
Mr. John T. 'Rowland, who has conduct
ed the new company’s affairs, says the on
ly thing it is now waiting on is the sub
scription of a few thousand dollars more
of stock to complete the $50,000 paid in cap
ital, which the company will have when it
begins business. Letters have been receiv
ed from parties outside of the city offering
to put up the rest of the capital, or as
much as ls desired, but it is the Intention
of those interested in the company, if pos
sible, to have every dollar of the stock
taken In the city, and the distribution of It
among the citizens will be as wide as it Is
possible to make it.
Mr. Morris W. Thomas, who built the
exchanges In Charleston, Augusta and
other places, expects to construct the ex
change here. ‘He has been In the city
several days awaiting developments. Sev
eral places have been talked of as loca
tions for the exchange, and while efforts
are being made to secure the place most
desirable, nothing definite In this direc
tion has yet been done. Within the next
week or two, however, it is expected that
the exchange building will be secured.
‘‘We have advertised residence tele
phones at $28,” Mr. Rowland said, “and
these will not be on party lines, but sep
arate and to themselves. Our contracts
will, of course, be made for a year, and
all of our rates will be 25 per cent, lower
than those offered by the Bell people. We
are satisfied that we can put in a resi
dence telephone at $2 a month, and a bus
iness telephone at $3 a month, and make
money.
"In many instances where local opposi
tion companies have been started the
Bell people have had to cut the rate, and
often put In telephones free. In Lynch
burg, Va., the Bell Company’s rates are sl2
a year for business and $6 for residence
telephones, while those of the opposition
company are S2B for business and $lB for
residence telephones, and the opposition
company has three times as many sub
scribers. In Charleston the opposition
company has about 500, and In Augusta
more than 600 subscribers. All of these
statements are facts, and I challenge their
coni radlction.
"I do not care to name any definite time
at which we will put in our plant, until
we are ready to put It In. There Is, of
course, liable to be some little delay, and
for that reason we would rather wait un
til we arc ready to act, and then let it be
seen what we are going to do. We have
nearly 000 of the Bell subscribers already
signed up, and I am satisfied We can get
1,000 as soon as we start; in fact, I may
say I have every assurance of It. We
have got to fight a pretty big corporation,
with plenty of money, and when we begin
we want to be prepared to do it.
“In speaking to me on the subject, Mr.
Gentry, who represents the Bell people,
told me he believed he could whip one

company out In two years, but that It
would cost him money to do it, in cutting
the rates so low. For that reason, he
said he was willing to pay us so much
money to withdraw from the field, which
was the proposition I declined.
“The Bell people ore undoubtedly re
sorting to every effort to keep down oppo
sition. If there has been an Infringement
of their patent, as they claim, why don’t
they close up someone of the opposition
exchanges, such as Richmond, or Norfolk,
or Lynchburg, and if they were success
ful In their test case that would prevent
other exchanges from being opened and
would practically close them all up. But
they are merely using that infringement
of patent cry as a bluff or they would
have had things all their own way before
this.”
Active work in the matter is being done
every day, Mr. Rowland says, and the
question of organization and getting in
shape for business is not a far distant
one.
WEEK OF PRAYER FOR YOUNG MEN
Will Be Observed Throughout the
World This Week.
The “week of prayer for young men of
all lands” will begin this week. The
Savannah Young Men’s Christian Asso
ciation has planned largely for the week
and the programme is of especial interest
to the Christian men of the city.
The opening service, which has always
been a special meeting, takes place this
afternoon at 6 o’clock, both sexes being
Invited. Rev. A. McLean, D. D., ex-presl.
dent of Bethany College, now secretary
of the Foreign Christian Missionary Soci
ety, who ls visiting here, will make the
address. Dr. McLean is a minister of
considerable ability and his address will
be something good. There will also be spe
cial music and one of Savannah sweetest
sopranos will sing a solo.
Meetings for men will be held every
night during the week, beginning at *
o'clock, and lasting three-quarters of an
hour. Speakers have been secured for
each evening. The programme Is as fol
lows:
Monday, Rev. M. J. Eptlng; Tuesday,
Mr. W. B. Stubbs; Wednesday, Rev. J. D.
Chapman; Thursday, Mr. W. B. Stubbs;
Friday, Rev. J. D. Chapman; Saturday,
Mr. W. B. Stubbs.
The fact that the week of prayer will
be observed by thousands of young men in
this country and throughout the world
aid interest to the meetings. Never per
haps was there greater cause for thanks
giving. There has been substantial prog
ress in many departments, the work as a
whole has manlained Its standard of effi
ciency and the prospect of better business
conditions makes the association hopeful
of more adequate material resources.
A WHOLE WEEK OF COl'llT.
Judge Falllgant to Iletnrn From Ef
fingham County To-doy.
Judge Robert Falllgant had not return
ed Inst night from Effingham county,
where he has been holding a session of
the superior court during the week.
Judge Falllgant has had a very busy
week at Springfield, and whs hearing a
case at a late hour yesterday afternoon,
which prevented his catching the train at
Guyton. He is expected home this morn
ing, however, but will have to leave to
night for Liberty county, where the su
perior court will be in session this week.
Col. George T. Cann, who has been at
Springfield all the week, returned to the
city yesterday.
There was only one criminal case of any
importance, Oliver Howard being tried for
the murder of Charley Williams. The two
had a row over some women, and Howard
managed to get his pistol and do the fir
ing first. He was found guilty of volun
tary manslaughter and sentenced to spend
ten years In the penitentiary.

Peter young, a negro aged 25 years, Is
thought, to have been fatally stabbed In a
house on Farm street at 1:30 o'clock this
morning by an unknown negro.
A number of men were passing the
house, when they heard the shriek of a
woman, and about the same time saw
Young jump from a window to the street.
It was found that his throat was cut
and the wound was bleeding. He was
taken to the office of Dr. R. G. Norton.
An examination there revealed that the
wound was probably fatal. It extended
about eight Inches across the throat, just
under the angle of the left Jaw. The ne
gro was weakened from the loss of blood

Dr. Norton found the external caratld
artery partially severed. The police were

tain no clue.
