Mitchell, at shortstop, is as fast as
a flash, has one of the strongest
throwing arms in the profession, and
is renowned for the sensational stops
and thrdws he is almost continually
making. Mitchell was with Augusta
last season.
Smith at third base is a youngster
who will bear watching, although not
yet of age, he is a very stockily built
chap with an arm of iron, and a hitter
from the old school Manager Ash
enback predicts a bright future for this
aggressive youngster.
Hayes will play left field. He was
secured front Atlanta on the recent
trip of- the Charleston club to that
city. Hayes last season led the entire
Texas League In stolen bases, pilfer
ing no less than 91 in 122 games. As
a fielder and base runner he excels.
Donnelly of the University of North
Carolina will play center field. Don
nelly last season played with the
strong Augusta club, and enjoyed the
sobriquet of “Home Run’’ Donnelly
In that city, owing to the frequency
in which he put the ball over the fence
for a home run. Donnelly will not
report until the close of his college
duties. May 1. Reynolds will play in
his place until his arrival in Charles

of the men, with the exception of Don

SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY. APRIL 24. 1904.
PRESIDENT BOYER BELIEVES THE NEW
ORGANIZATION WILL BE SUCCESSFUL
Is Much Gratified With the Work Already
Accomplished.
After the work and worry of months,
the solution of a thousand and one
knotty problems and the surmounting
of innumerable obstacles, President
Boyer breathed a great sigh of relief
yesterday as he sat in one of the new
ly painted boxes just before the com
mencement of the game with the Y.
M. C. As., and noted the work that
had been accomplished towards per
fecting one of the six tendrils of the
organisation which he is the head of.
The organization on a firm business
basis of a baseball league is no small
problem, nor are the labors attached
thereto of a nature to be lightly con
sidered. Commencing with the formal
organisation on the 24th of last No
vember. there has been no cessation in
the work that was necessary to the
installation of baseball teams in cities
that have met many reverses in ex
perimenting with the national g‘ame.
With his superior experience in the
handling of baseball teams, and of the
inner workings of a baseball league,
Mr. Boyer has accomplished, perhaps,
more in the short space of time, than
many more widely known promoters
of the game. He has done all of the
work incident to the organization alone.
He reconstructed the roughly drafted
by-laws and constitution; he secured
protection from the National Associa
tion of Baseball Clubs; he secured man
agers for cities where local assistance
could not be depended on; he wrote
hundreds of letters of information to
the various managers, secured the do
nation of enough balls for each team
to run them through the entire sea
son, and while discharging the various
duties of the office of president, he
organized and equipped the Savannah
team, contracted for a park and per
sonally supervised Its improvements
and equipment for the games to be
played here. He has done much, and
much heed should be given what he
has to ask of lovers of the game.
Bright Future for League,
"I believe,” remarked Mr. Boyer, as
he gazed across the smooth field where
the Pathfinders were passing the ball
too and fro, “that there is a great
future for this little league with the
proper encouragement from the patrons
ROYAL BRED STOCK
QUARTERED HERE
FARED WELL IN CLIMATE.
NORTHERN HORSEMEN DELIGHTED
WITH SALUBRIOUS CONDITIONS.
Stable of Mr. John H. Shalt*, the Mil
lionaire Horse Owner of Brooklyn,
Is Represented Here by a String
of Royal Bred Youngsters That
Are Destined to Be Stars on the
Northern Speedways—Attention ot
Northern Horsemen Has Been At
tracted to the Track Here and
Next Winter May Kind Many More
Quartered in the Barns of the Sa
vannah Racing Association.
In a few days the barns out at the
Savannah Racing Association track
will be finally deserted, after having
been occupied during the greater part
of the winter by some of the most roy
ally bred harness horses on the globe,
comprised in the stable of Mr. J. H.
Shults, the millionaire stock breeder of
Brooklyn, N. Y.
The marvelous results attained by
trainers during their winter work in
Savannah has attracted the attention
of all Northern horsemen who have
been in the habit of keeping their
stock quartered in ice bound stables in
the North.
During the last winter both running
and trotting horses have been quar
tered here, and in every instance the
thoroughbreds have done better than
ever before in their lives. The horses
of Mr. Shults are in charge of trainer
John Cheney, who is one of the best
known drivers on the Eastern speed
ways. This is the fifth year that Mr.
Shults has sent his horses South, and
so well have they done that he has
decided, if possible, to establish a reg
ular wintering place in Savannah.
If Mr. Shults is extended the right
sort of encouragement he will make
Savannah his main winter quarters,
which means that he will have a large
following, and Savannah will soon be
as celebrated for winter quarters as is
Memphis or Selma.
All of the horses quartered here now
belonging to Mr. Shults, sixteen in
number, are youngsters. He has a
pair of baby trotters, 2-year-olds, that
are most promising. They are Guy
Axworthy and Flying Axworthy.
Among the fast ones in the lot are
Directum Less Tritton, Bow Axworthy
and two 3-year-olds, Vonla Worthy
and Edith Worthy.
Mr. George Haight also has a string
of some fifteen or sixteen head un
der his charge. A number of these are
Georgia-bred horses, sired by Lewln
ski. He also has Summer Fern, 2.13U4,
under his charge. She has worked a
mile in 2:10 and is expected to be a
winner in the coming circuit races.
Trainer Cheney will ship the Shults
string North some time during the com
ing week.

across the plate, then I am pretty apt
to pitch a good game."
Johnny Welch has made a hit with
the fans. The boy with the c and the
one with the s are both to the good.
Yesterday was the first time the
boys had up a good perspiration in a
week. That kind of sunshine will soon
take the kinks out of bad arms.
Buster McCammon is going to have
his picture in the papers in a few days.
It will also appear on some of the
window posters.
Harmon's three-bagger to center
field yesterday was a beauty. He
caught one of Welch's swift ins right
on the nose.
Nearly every team in the league
has made enough money off exhibi
tion games to pay the expenses of the
players during the trying-out period.
Jacksonville, perhaps, heads the list,
having played a total of twenty-one
games.
Con Strouthers’ quartette of antiqui-
of the game. We have much to face
yet; many obstacles to overcome.
"It will be our lot, for the present,
to train players for the larger or
ganizations until we get on a better
footing where we can hold the men
that we develop. In all cities of the
league there will be more or less criti
cism of the teams. To the fair-minded
this is unjust at present. We cannot
produce the same class of ball play
ers on a salary basis of SI,OOO that
New York and the other big teams
produce on an unlimited pay roll.
“We must draw largely from the
college players. We must necessarily
have men who are just starting out,
and through the medium of this or
ganization are working their way to
the big leagues. It is the experience
of all minor leagues that they are
training schools, more or less.
The Teams Are Strong.
“Of the teams of the league much
can be said in comparison with other
leagues in the same class. Realizing
that there is a great future for the
game in this territory managers and
players have been anxious to get in
here at the start.
“Asa result of this we have been
fortunate in getting some of the best
men in the country interested. We
have drawn star men from several of
the minor leagues, and in the mana
gers of the various teams are found
some of the best known ball players
In America to-day.
“Economy will be our watch word.
The patronage the first year will be
far from w r hat can be acquired with
the presentation of good, clean ball by
the very best players that the patron
age will warrant managers In employ
ing.
Should Be Evenly Matched.
I believe that every manager in the
league recognizes the necessity for
keeping within’ the bounds of the arti
cles of organization agreed upon. Wjtn
the equalized salary limit all teams
should be as evenly matched as handi
capped horses. The failure in one city
means disaster to others, and recog
nizing this I believe that there will b
no trouble In keeping all managers
within the salary limit.
"I am particularly pleased with the
spirit that has already been manifest
ed in Savannah, and with the warm as
surances of support that I have re
ceived from so many representative
citizens. The equipment of the league
has entailed a heavy expense on all
concerned, and if we are able to pull
out even the first year we will have
many things to be thankful^for.’*
ties have provoked Augusta fans to
the wildest enthusiasm. That’s the
spirit that makes baseball a success.
The delay in the arrival of the sea
son passesr-vvhich the president of the
league will issue to the several clubs
to be disposed of among the leading
officials of their cities has caused Pres
ident Boyer considerable annoyance.
The passes will be in to-morrow and
will be mailed out at once.
WOOD TURPENTINE^
PLANT FOR TIFTON.
Tifton, Ga., April 23.—Work began
this morning on a wood distilling plant
for the production of spirits turpen
tine from pine wood, for H. H. Tift.
The work is being done by the Pine
Belt Construction Company of Raleigh,
N. C., which has a superintendent and
fifteen men at work here. The plant
will cost $15,000.
It will be built under the Bethune
process, which extracts the turpentine,
but leaves the tar, wood alcohol and
creosote.
The plant is being built near the
cotton factory, and all wood used in
the factory furnace will first be dis
tilled by this process and the spirits
turpentine extracted. It is thought
this distillation will save many thous
ands of dollars that have heretofore
gone up in smoke.
llont Hand Drowned nt Sliver Blnlf.
Dublin, Ga., April 23.—Louis Single
ton, a hand on the steamer R. C.
Henry, was drowned on yesterday at
Silver Bluff. He was pushing the boat
from the landing with a pole, which
broke, throwing him in the river and
under the boat. His body was re
covered and brought to Dublin.
Masonic Fnnernl at Sparks.
Sparks, Ga., April 23.—Perhaps the
largest and most impressive Masonic
funeral ever held in this county was
held yesterday at Sparks at the burial
of Mr. M. L. Purdom, who died
Thursday night. Mr. Purdom was
one of the most popular men in Ber
rien county.
Woman's Throat Cut.
Lyons. Ga., April 23.—Lula Fenley,
colored, had her throat cut last night
by a man said to have been her hus
band. Her mother lives here. The
Fenley woman was living at Vidalia
until a few days ago, when her mother
brought her to Lyons. Last night
her husband came for her, but she re
fused to go with him and he cut her
throat and fled. She will probably die.
