angel all the time, and the judgment
of a supreme court, the mildness of a
lamb, the backbone of a prize-fighter,
and the memory of an old maid, is al
ways In hot water. I try to earn my
salary, and I don’t give a cent who
wlnB. I Intend to do the right thing,
if I hold up for five minutes on the
strain I am called a robber and every
thing else they can think up. ’Don’t
work hard? Why, I do more solid work
in two hours than a dozen office men
In a day. And If a thing Is done to
make a player kick the remedy Is sim
ple; show him that the umpire Is
what the rule book says he Is, the
master of the field. Pshaw! I used
to put Jack Grim in the South Atlantic
out every other day. Ho was manag
ing Columbia then and had to be es
corted by the cops at least twice a
week. Same way with Ed. Ashenback.
And still they say that managing
eighteen ball players for two hours
isn’t work. Why a professional ball
player will take all he can get and
more worse than anybody on earth.
’Don’t work,’ ” and the Umps emitted
a cloud of cigarette smoke in disgust
to the celling.
He does, anyway. McGrath Is as
conscientious a man as ever handled
the indicator. In 1904 he was umpir
ing in the South Atlantic, last year he
worked In the Virginia-Carolina
league. And the players have come to
respect the stentorian voiced arbiter
of their fate. Only Monday Lane
struck out and didn’t want to leave,
jawing some gibberish to the umpire.
“Get out of there!" McGrath said—
and he got.

And Crosley can drive a tallyho.
Ye gods and little fishes!
The shameless Kordeles say tha,t

Talk about gall!
It was announced at first that there
wouldn’t be anything, that they would
not even go out; but the rain ceased
at 3:30 and both the clubs went out,
and a few to see the game, if game
there was to be. But after the men
had slipped up a few times on the
muddy diamond, McGrath stepped out
and inspected it. Then after a short
conference with Cawthorn he an
nounced that it wouldn’t do, and ev
erybody came home. The rain started
then and before then, and as a general
thing everybody got wet.
Now, answer this: who was saved
from defeat—Albany? Civic pride for
bids this reply. Cordele? Scott says
no, no, no; but he don’t know. Any
way, the optimistic side of the ques
tion will be taken, the Albany view
point, according to which we were
robbed by the heavens of a victory.
Oh! ye Kordele Kids, you sure do
owe something to the rain-maker.
When you go to Sunday school next
week drop it in the collection envel
ope.
And such a shame. Nunley informed
the scorer that he had three three-
baggers up his sleeve, and to think
the pleasure of chronicling them was
not to be. This is a Sad world, any
way. You know a victory was needed,
too. The rain may be good for the
cabbages, but it’s not for the Climbers.
As the raindrops pattered down, the
wagonload of Albany players en route
to the hotel demanded that it be a
faster pace. Then Crosley took the
lines and urged the fiery steeds to re
newed efforts. He wanted to take a
drive through the residence section of
the town, but McGrath, who occupied
a seat behind him, told him to turn,
and turn he did. And it was a race
against the elements up Washington
street. Crosley handled the, reins like
a professional and left an automobile
far in the rear. Some of the rest said
he had been a racer in bygone days
and made records with Maud S. Any
way, he nearly dumped tlve rest out
when he hit the railroad tracks. Kirk-
ham was caught by the leg (don’t be

the Cordele team about the Climbers.
How discerning those Cordele players
are! Of course thlB wasn’t given out
verbally, but is the secret opinion of
the enemy about their present op
ponents.
A man who is in perfect health, so
he can do an honest day’s-work when
necessary, has much for which he
should be thankful. Mr. L. C. Rod
gers, of Brancliton, Pa., writes that he
was not only unable to work, but he
couldn’t stoop over to tie his own
shoes. Six bottles of Foley’s Kidney
Cure made a new man of him. He
says, "Success to Foley’s Kidney
Cure.” :
