EVE, * Judge Superior Court **fton Circuit. Feerth W Jaly Gs la TU. From Thursday's Daily: Wlgi th« double games at Bain- bridge and Moultrie, Yesterday, the Dixie League cloned for the teason. | This close was made certain after Moultrie notified • President Ward Tuesday Jtot they were ready to quit after Wednesday’s games. At one time it eras proposed to advance the closing from August 13th to July 14 and R was thought this would be done until the news of the closing ram* yesterday. Contrary to pecUtions, no poafreaason scries will be played between . Moultrie, which j won the first half, and Bainfaridge, which led the second half. Manager Bowen and the Tifton pUyera came in from Moultrie last night. The player* were paid off thia morning, but were not released. Manager Bowen will hold them un der contract untilR is known what arrangements will 1*^ made for a- nother season. While the last half of the season was unfortunate for Tifton the team only winning one of the eleven gomes played, the at tendance here compared favorably with other cities in the circuit. Summed as a whole, thia it not a year for baseball, and the Dixie officials did well in calling the sea ! son off, settling with the players | and letting them find work else where. Locally, the Tifton team will fall about 11.200 behind for the season. Thia will be made good by local sobscriptions. Preaident Ward is of the opin- j ion that the* club* can reserve their players and be in shape for next year, in the event there is baseball played.
