ONE OF MOST IMPORTANT CON
TRACTS EVER MADE BY BIQ
LEAGUE CLUB JUST CLOSED BY
•MANAGER GEORGE 8TALLING3—
WHAT IT MEAN8.
By FRANC ttANGUM.
Next spring Macon will be the train
ing camp of the largest number of
base ball players ever gathered at ono
place for the purpose.
George Stallings, the famous Augus
tan, tvho has Just been made manager
of the New York Americans, has Just
completed arrangements Jor bringing
his entire lot of recruits, numbering
more than sixty, for their ante-season
workout. He will not only train these
men here, but will play exhibition
games with several of the world’s most
noted teams, among them being the
Chicago |Cubs (the hVorid’a Cham
pions), the Cincinnati Reds, the 'Boston
Nationals, the Brooklyn and tho Phil
adelphia Nationals.
Mr. Stallings passed through Macon
Tuesday en routo to Augusta, where
ho Is spending a few days with his
boyhood friends, and he closed the con
tract while here. He stated that in
pursuance of his plan to givo the New
York American league club a team
that will figure In the race, he will
tryout more players than any other
big league organization will Imvo evei
before had under contract at one time.
Recruits have been gathered from al
most every league In the country, and
every one Is reputed to be a star.
The coming of the Highlanders will
enable local fans to see Hal Chase, the
world’s greatest first-Broker; Willie
Keefer. Chesbro. Kfefnow. KIberflefd.
Conroy, Delehanty and other famed
ball players. Among the familiar faces
there will bo Clyde Engel, for two sea
sons with Augusta, und Ed Sweeney,
who played his first professional hnM
with Columbia in this league. The
assembling of such a great number of
players here will arouse unusual Inter
est in Macon base ball, and will, no
doubt, prove of material benefit to tho
local team. Stallings Is expected to
leave several of his younger men here
for development.
Tho Now Yorkers will arrive about
the first of March and wfif stay here
thirty days. Some of the pitchers and
catchers will be sent to Manager Stall
ings' farm at Haddocks, twenty miles
from here, several weeks In advance of
the regulars, and will bo tried out
under his personal supervision. Among
this lot of pitchers will be the old
timers like Jack Chesbro. who needs
much time to get In shape.
Since the Cleveland Naps announced
their Intention of working out at Mo
bile, the fans here have been grieving
because of their Inability to watch the
spring try-out of a major league ag
gregation, but now they nro fairly
throwing fltfi of Joy. They will look
forward with much eagerness to the
coming of Stallings' crew, and they will
pull for him to cop the American
leuguo bunting next yenr.
Stallinos’ Sacred Cows.
George Stallings amused a number
of his Macon friends by telling of his
herd of sacred cows on his farm at
Haddocks. He says that about a year
ago he bought a pair nt the auction

"Allow me to congratulate you on
your discovery of Ml-o-na. I had

none seemed to do me any good,
vomited frequently. I had this trouble
four years. I took one box of Ml-o-

"I suffered with stomach trouble for
16 years; spent $100 for medicines,
everything failed to do any good until

and tt will cure others that suffer."—
