But Walen, the best of the Americas pitchers, by the way, was hit by a hot liner that Nolley smashed out, and his hand was ntng to take care of themselves It Is' looking like a pennant race after all' The men, with the exception of Mc Cormack and Klrkham, are In prime condition and will be in shape to do something with Cordele the last three days of next week. Somehow, though the rest' of the dubs find It a little hard to handle them, they are easier to the Climbers than some that are be low them In the percentage column. Of course there has been a lot of changing on that club since they were here at the opening of the season. AT AMERICU8. Innings— 123 436 789—R. H. E.

The series, too, Is safe.-' never the same after that. He wasn’t taken out, but he might as well have been, for the Climbers started In then and proceeded to pile them up. Their success was so great that they added five to the four that were the result up till this time. After that the rest was easy. Osment has left Cordele and now covers first for the Climbers. It will be remembered that In the first game of the series that Cordele played here he got three two-base hits oHt of three times up. His hitting yesterday was terrific and the game Is largely the re sult of his work. Snodgrass Is to be congratulated on securing him. He Is a valuable acquisition to any team. DeCosta had to catch again. Mac is still laid up and may be out for a while longer. Boyd was at third again, Klrk ham having that Wrist still 'in ban dages. But In spite of mat the team won. It. Is in a very badly crippled condition now, and the fact that It Is holding Its own In the fix that It Is In Is only an Indication of what the men will do when the whole team Is In good shape. Perhaps when It strikes Valdosta the men will be able to get In the line-up—those that are not now —and at. least two of the games with them should be the property of Snod’s men. But the Vagrants are putting up a very fine article now and to win will not be an easy matter, by any means. Still, in spite of the vicissitudes of fortune It may he the luck of the Clim bers to come back from their trip with three won series. Nunley, as usual, played a hard game. Depend on him to work. Sure ly he Is in earnest. He takes advan tage of every chance and the way he Is In the game all the time Is good to see. Especially as this Is a weak point with the rest of the men. Of late they have grown somewhat leth argic. True, there has been a lot to make this the • case, but until they learn that don’t-give-up spirit that Is characteristic of "The Kid” there isn’t going to be much climbing for them. Also the ginger isn’t what it should be, even when they are playing a win ning game. Nolley has shown once more that he Is a twlrler Of the first water; and he possesses that quality rarely found In the pitcher, the ability to hit and field bis position. Tribble, of Way- cross, and Weekley, of Valdosta, are really about the only other pitchers In the league that possess this qualifica tion. Noiley has won the respect of the fans, who were hammering on him when that first game that he pitched In Waycross went wrong. They have withheld their praise until he _ has It In him, and lots of It, too. But he won them by his undoubted ability, and he hasn’t catered for their favor, either. , Anyway, It was won. It couldn’t have been expected of Amerlcus that they take two In succession; but they have let It be known In a most effect ive way that they will not be the laughing stock of the circuit any long er. The weak points have * been strengthened and the strong ones made stronger since Coniff has taken hold of it It was time that something be done, however, for as it was, with Waycross way In the lead and Amerl cus way at the bottom the interest was rapidly ebbing. Now that Colum bus and Cordele are taking care of the leaders and the tail-enders are begin- DeCosta keeps his talk going all’ the time, and It helps. RIckert Is playing the outfield great Bhape In New Orleans. In Bonhannon Is one of the good men that are wasted on Nashville. Manuel is one of the New Orleans pitchers that isn’t appreciated as he should be. The Waycross team couldn’t win forever. It was only a question of time with them. It is a feat for the Cellarites to.get even one out of a series. They hardly expect that much. Atlanta has been fattening off Little Rock lately shamefully. It’s some body else’B turn now. Bert Noblett, now playing short for Little Rock, is a lot better lnflelder than most folks think. Osment, the "Tramp,” don’t hit it at all except sometimes, which was near ly all the time with him. Childs must make good in Atlanta quick or go. That is the dictum of Billy Smith. Sorrell Is picking up at third with Amerlcus. Kipp Is as good as any of them, though. And Nunley got one that took him to'third. It was a rocky day for Mr. Walen, anyway. Rhoton, who starred with Meridian In the Cotton States last year, 1b quite a success in Macon. Poole now runs about in right for the Tal’enders. He has only played on three teams in one month. There were a good many errors In yesterday’s game. The rest of the clubs put up a rather neat game. Lane, the much ^advertised, couldn’t make good on first with the Amerlcus team, is It necessary to say more7 It’s a little strange that some days the Cordele club has nlmost a walk over and the next loses after a hard fight. Beusse sees that the rest of the season Is going to be hard work all the time. It should have started sooner. No matter what about the Savannah team’s work at present, there Is no doubt of the sincerity and earnestness of Mathews. The Fishermen aren’t doing at all badly now. They rather fixed Way- cross and it; looks as If tfie series with Valdosta Is theirs. There Is royal discontent In Bir mingham these days. Almost every thing bad that can be thought of Is being applied to the Barons. hold of the Montgomery -club. It needed a lot more than a mere man ager. N It Is rumored that Wagnon will get Into faster company before long. If any o't the Georgia State lnflelders will, he will be in ’the bunch. Dick Crosier, can show most any of them pdtnts about the way to play the outfield. The Atlanta papers get quite hysterical over h(m sometimes. Spade Is fast losing ground In Ma con. When he came there this year he was given the glad band by every one and every opportunity to win was given him. Harry Kane is one of the few best pitchers In the South Atlantic. Savan nah would be a lot lower In the column If it were not for the work he has done and Is continuing to do. The club that wins on a batting ral ly In the ninth has something In it, and-that Is what Cordele did In Way- cross. The grandstand had already begun to empty when they started In. Hessler has a .300 batting average now. Of course he can’t keep that up all summer, but It shows what is In him. He batted better than that when he was here. The Columbus team owes a lot to the fact that they are a gang of sluggers. One reason for the success of the Augusta club Is found In their Infield. Shlppey and Sandy McKernan would be stars in even faster company. Ship- pey Is as fast a third sacker as the Sallie has. Shreveport and New Orleans ’ are having It like New York and Chicago. Those who ought to know profess to believe that the Pelicans will have the staying power. But. the same ones have been predicting that the Pirates would go down long before this. Macon has supported a poor ball club a lot better than was expected of them. They never were so much to come out to see a winning team play and the rest of the towns naturally thought that they would stay at home altogether when the Champs began to slump. Morse Is now and always has been characterized by a readiness, to take all the hard chances that come up. As a result his average Is not what It might be, but that of the Atlanta club is better. The fans that don’t judge a player by his record In the guide, but by his real work have a lot of confidence in him. Fisher, shortstop for Columbus, comes of a baseb’all family, anyway. He has two brothers that have long been prominent in baseball circles. One of them is no other than the re doubtable Newt Fisher, so long- the mogul of the Nashville team. The other, Tom Fisher, played In the South Atlantic League a while.' Walters, mahager of the Valdosta team, is a sincere if violent kicker. * 1 * * * * * * * e The Valdosta team Owes a lot to the way he works. He isn’t at all selfish, either, In his endeavors and the men under him have found it out already. This Is the one drawback to so many managers and it hurts the team worse than anything else almost. The games that the Albany team Is now playing on the road are being re ceived in detail by telegraph over the Rialto. This is always a very inter esting thing to hear, next to seeing the- game ltBelf. Every move is re corded and the spectator might as well be at the game Itself, so real it is. And the place is commodious and spacious, there’s plenty of room, and the best of order prevails. The fans should turn out In large numbers to see the plays of the Climbers as they tear up the diamond. A Canadian Paradise. Temagaml is shaped like an octopus, with long stretched out^nrms, and its sbores are Indented with deep circling bays, Island strewn und culminating in sharp points and curves that add to the beauty of this magical scene. "The lake of deep waters!' is the meaning of the Indian word, and they lie very deep and cool in their bed of granite, in stillness a perfect mirrdr, in storm darkly menacing, with foam edged waves Showing fanglike teeth. Being a hundred Bquare miles In urea, Terna- gami foams one of Canada’s great nat ural reservoirs. Mighty rivers from the height of land to the north flow Into it, and It in turn feeds the streams that flow southward, carrying their life giving waters through the forests to the peopled lands below. There are 1,400 lalahds In the lake, and the gov ernment 1ms Included the whole area in a magnificent forest reserve -of a million und a half acres.—Kate West- lake Yeigb in Fonr Track News.

There is a relation between the colot of flame and the energy of the com bustion causing It. The more vigorous and complete the combustion the high er the refrnnglbillty of the light A flame burning In a tardy and restricted way emits rays that are red. When burning In a more complete nnd effec tive manner the emitted rays change to violet. The flame of a candle or a lamp consists of n scries of eccentric luminous shells surrounding a central dark core. These shells of flam^ emit light of different colors, the Innermost one—that In direct contact with the dark core—being red and having a tem perature of exactly 87T degrees F. Upon this and in their proper order of refranglblllty are shells of light which are orange, yellow, green, blue. Indigo and violet. The reason that sucb a flame does not appear to us ns a nest of cones of different colored light Is this: When we look upon such a flame all of the rnys issuing from the dif ferent layers or strata of concentric luminous Bhells are received by the retina of the eye at one and the same time. This can only Impress with the sensation of neutral or White light Rubles* The finest rubles are-Btlll kept In Asia. Tbe Great Mogul bad 108 large rubles In his throne, and among them was one weighing two and one-half ounces. Of European rubies Charles the Bold, that luckless son of a for tunate father, had three rubles called the Three Brothers, of perfect color and worthy size. They passed Into the possession of James I., who sent them to "Baby Charles.’’ There Is a large heart shaped bains ruby In the Eng lish crown. It has been neither cut nor polished, 1b only semitransparent and Is of a dark red, like a morello cherry. Austria bad, or has, an orien tal ruby the size of a ben’s egg, and Queen Elizabeth showed Sir James Melville- one as big ns a racket bull. Runjeet Singli had s a large ruby with the nnmes of many kings engraved on it. Among them was that of Aurang- zeb. A king of Persia had one which he prized at the value of a city or even a kingdom. It was a table cut balas ruby of a beautiful color of at least a finger’s breadth. The Ship's Low. Tbe record of a ship’s voyage Is called its log because the observations of its speed, usually taken hourly, by the log line are a very Important factor In tbe record. The log' line IS bo called because the float attached to the lino was originally a small log' or Btlck of wood. This “log” Is now a square or triangular piece of board weighted so that It sits upright In the water. The log line Is divided by knots or marks Into lengths of fifty-one feet, which Is about one one-hundred-and-twentleth of a marldc mile, so that the ship Is going ns many marine miles 'or knots in an hour ns tbe uuinber of knots or lengths that run off the reel in half n minute when the “log” Is thrown over- board. Animals In Mohammedan Heaven. According to the Mohammedans, ten animals have been ndmitted to para dise—the dog krntlin, the follower of the seven sleepers, Bnlanm’s ass, Solo mon’s ant. the honeybee, Jonah’s wlmlc. the ram which was offered In sacrifice In place of Isahe, the camel of Saleb, ,the cuckoo of Ballets, the' ox of Moses ami A1 Bornk, the monstrosity which conveyed Mohammed from earth to heaven and back again In n very short time. These creatures were all saluted for some special services which they hud rendered to man. Deadly Serpent Bites are as common in India as are stom ach and liver disorders with -us.
