Amid applause that marked each
number of the programme at intermit
tent stages, the corner stone of a
four-story victory was laid at the East
Side cite yesterday afternoon, Grand
Box Car Potentate Burke, of the
Mask and Wig Club, officiating In an
exciting manner.
Eighteen mosit athletes participated
in the ceremonies, nine representatives
being from the Reorganized Order of
Fathlinders and nine from the visiting
lodge of Disordered Tourists. There
was a rival show down town which
kept many of the faithfuls away, but
there was a surprisingly large at
tendance when the Angler turned the
hoist which carried the visitors so high
in the 'air that they failed to return to
earth until the ceremonies were almost
completed.
Fun Willi Mr. lliirke.
Title humorous jrart of the pro
gramme was at the expense of Mr.
Burke and his voice. Rumor has it
That the arbiter was a foreman In
one of the boiler shops around the
home of the Iron Puddler, but his
voice has more of the Intonation of
the Midway. At all events, those who
heard the gentle thrill of his voice
are not likely to forget it soon.
Mr. Burke umpired with hands and
feet, only doing the announcing with
The voice. Strikes for the home pitch
er were announced with much eclat,
while the visiting twirler received his
dues in an apologizing monotone. Had
his umps reversed every decision
made on close plays at the bases he
would have been just as near right.
But the Box Car King does not
draw his pay for being the whole
show, and during some of the more
exciting moments he was forgotten
until he butted in with judgment
adverse to that of the suffering ath
letes. He then parried each repartee
with ("for heaven's sake, old man,
don't you make errors?" Burke's
fielding average Is below zero.
How Visitor*. Were Treated.
The reception planned for the visit
ing clansmen was a little warmer than
they had anticipated, and the stren
uous programme was toned down after
the first few numbers were reeled off.
There were many things to Inspire
sympathy for the visitors.
Just before they left home they were
thinking of putting their soiled uni
forms in soak, but some good angel
furnished the money and they signed
the pay roll. The clothes were not
soaked. After the game the athletes
went to Tybee without changing their
dress and waded right out into the
waters. They will wear a brighter as
pect to-day.
In the very first round our nine com
menced celebrating their home com
ing by tearing off four screeching sin
gles that netted a brace of runs that
had small bracing effect on the pale
visitors. Cobb. Spratt anil Engel were
retired just in time for the right wind
to get into Mr. Lucas' trousers, and
he was off the earth before he could
settle long enough to put one over
the pan for Kid King. The Kid walk
ed, but was caught shortly afterward
stealing second.
Trolly Was Hitting Hard.
Truby singled hard by tihrd, and
was advanced to the last bag by Burt's
drive to left field. Burt went down to
second on the first ball over, and both
he and Truby scored on Holmes’ single
to center. After Oyler had fouled out
to Mr. Spratz. Yancy took one in the
back of his neck. Miller's short single
to second only advanced the runners
a base, and with the corners laden
Both punched a tall fly Into Cobb's ter
ritory.
In the second the visitors again went
out in one, two. three order. King's
long running catch of Chandler's short
fly being a feature of this round.
In the second the Angler made a long
oast, and landed on sedond base after
a hot drive down the left field line.
King again went the press agent route,
and both he and Con were advanced a
bag on Truby's soft punch. Welch
scored on Burt's out to left, and King
was ping ponged between second and
third.
The visitors again went out in one.
two, three order. Holmes hit hard to
Wilson in right, who dropped the ball.
Oyler did the martyr act and Yancy
sprung a hard one into deep center,
Cobh letting it slip through hts mtt.
Holmes scored and Yancy was caught
at third after an eighteen-yard slide.
Miller flew out to second.
Gnash* Trying to Steal.
In the fourth the visitors pried off
a hit. Cobb sent the first ball over
Into left field. The next minute he
was a part of a fast double pulled off
by Billy Oyler and Roth. Spratt fur
nishing the means. Engel singled to
left field and started to second, on
what he thought was *a balk Mr.
Burke ruled "no balk" and Engel died
at second. Roth received a jolt in-the
slats and walked. Welch sacrificed,
Roth went to third on King s out, and
scored on Truby's single to left field.
A Better S cent Cigar was never made than

GAMES WILL BE CALLED
EARLIER REST OF SEASON.
r'ainnieneiiig To-day 4:30 Will Be
Hoar for U'oinnienclnK Play.
Owing to the shortening days the
bail games from now on will be call
ed at 4:30 sharp instead of 4:45 as
heretofore.
There has also been a change in
the manner of making good rain
cheeks. Heretofore when a rain
check was handed in for admission,
if it rained again the party admitted
on the check had nothing to show
for the next game. Hereafter these
checks will be exchanged for tickets
if presented at the box office, and
the holder will still have a rain check
in the event of rain.
Truby was again caught trying to
steal.
In the eighth the locals again loaded
the bases, and only succeeded in land
ing one man. Oyler lead off with a
two base drive to left, scoring on Yan
cy’s single by second. Yancy was ad
vanced to second on Miller's base on
balls. Yancy was c'aught trying to
steal third. Roth singled and Welch
retired the side by whiffing.
In the ninth, the visitors made a
brilliant spurt. Lucas hit safe to short,
but was forced out at second on Cobb's
grounder to Oyler. Spratt singled by
third, Cobb going to third. Spratt
went to second on the first ball thrown,
and both he and Cobb scored on En
gel's drive to left field. Engel was
caught trying to steal third. Kennedy
walked, and Wilson was thrown out
from third.

SOME FAN FOOD
Oapt. Spratt said he was just tir
ed of getting walloped before such
small crowds. "If we are going to
get it we want lots of people to see the
fun," he said last night.
Bob Kennedy waited out two passes
to first.
This is ladies' day, but Old Rip, the
ladies day pitcher, is not due until
to-morrow, and Gen. Thatcher will
take a brace against the slump he has
been up against recently.
Clyde Engel is playing a great game
far the Tourists at second. But for
that matter all of the Augusta crew
are playing good ball. Can any one
tell just why they are getting beat so
regularly?
Now that Brindle lost his game the
leaders have little to hope for in Char
leston. Macon has two postponed
games with Ashenback, and now that
he bas the moral support of the first
victory. Foxy Ed will not let the op
portunity slip to make Smith play both
games off.
With this present series Savannah
has twenty-six game at home. Four
with Augusta this trip, four on the
next trip, six with Jacksonville, three
with Columbia, five with Macon and
four with Charleston.
The last game of the season will be
played between Jacksonville and Ma
con 6n Sunday, Sept. 11, at Jackson
ville.
The fifteen liming game played be
tween Jacksonville and Savannah still
holds the record for extra inning
games In this league.
Andy Roth 'performed like a cap let
ter star at the first sack yesterday.
Andy Is putting more life Into the
game than any one individual on the
line up at present.
Where is there a steadier infield than
the one Savannah has. Where is there
a faster, or even as fast outfield?
Pitching staff the best, too, with back
stops beyond compare. Pity the race
is not a little further off.
Chris Miller has settled into his old
position at third, and is now easily
the star of the league. Perry Lipe
is a good steady worker, but Miller
is two to one the faster.
Each day brings the teams all clos
er together. Macon is considerably
less than 100 points ahead. She was
over 200 ahead at one time.
The league record for assists In a
nlne-tnning contest was broken yes
terday. A total of thirty-nine assists
were chalked up. Augusta getting 21 of
the number.
Burke's voice reminds one of the old
days down on the river, when the
hoarse-throated steamers hleiv for
every landing.
King, the pensive youth who draws
a salary for tending the right garden,
dashed into the teeth of u short drive
yesterday and plucked it with consid
erable credit unto himself. King Is
SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS: FRIDAY. AUGUST 12. 1904.
a regular knave when it comes to get
ting down to first, and the way he han
dles those chorus legs is really remark
able.
Mistuh J Mackey requests that all
who have no ed the wonderful improve
ment he has made in both the in an l
outfield will please extend their thanks
on entering the grounds to-day.
There was another evidence of the
fact that Savannah invariably gets the
worst of close decisions by reason of
President Boyer's connection with the
team. In the last game at Macon, even
the fans believed that a ball hit by
King, which scored two runs when the
game was a tit was a fair hit. Burke
called it a foul.
Mull is suffering with acute locomo
tor ataxia, lb will make the trip to
Jacksonville on foot to relieve his over
charged feelings.
Bill Oyler starred again yesterday in
the short field. Billy received another
consignment of pies from home re
cently.

Charleston, Aug. 11. —Smith for Ma
con lost the game for the visitors
here this afternoon by dropping a long
fly that was sent him by Sydney
Smith for Charleston, and by then
tailing a little later to field quickly
a long drive to the field, on which
Smith scored the winning run. It was
a splendid exhibition of good, clean
ball, one of the best seen here in many
