C COMMENT about that most inde- cislve thing In baseball, the tie, drawn battle, or dog-fall, usual ly can be limited to one word of four letters, ordinarily expressed in print by the D end a couple of hyphens and an N. The dog-fall with Memphis Mon- lav was no exception to the general rule. Therefore, you may Just consider the comment pronounced, as fol lows: “D double hyphen N.” I T took eleven innings, two hours and 1 a half, and Home other things to decide that the first game with Mem phis will have to be played some more.. Still, there were a couple of features. r) NE was the batting of Mr. .lack Love, who leads off for the Tur tles We u*ed to know Mr. Love, back In Kansas City, where he played hall for the Blues. Having duly mitted Mr. Love, we HOW TO HEAL A STUBBORN ABSCESS took occasion to ask how things were going with him. This was before the game. Mr. Love said thing* were going so-so. He added that his hatting was inclined to be off. We did not notice the offness In the ensuing melee. Mr. Love got four excessively clean hits out of five attempts. We should like to see Friend .lack when his hatting was not off—-that Is. If he were playing again** Mo bile. A NOTHER enlivening feature of the long combat was the arrival of the Frank verdict. An effort was made from the press box to got Umps Stockdale to an nounce same. Mr. Stockdale demurred He said he wasn’t paid tot it. A raucous appeal was made to Mr. Stockdale’s well-known wportsman- shlp, and he decided to take a chance.* Hut he had got only so far as. "1 have been requested to ann—” when the crowd, having something else on its mind, let out a whoop and lost the htg hit of the day. THE extras got out in a few min utes, however, and there was a good chance for a Reporter of the Old School to get in something about Pandemonium clouding up. or raining, or something. # • • ANYWAY, It was a long and rather ^ * sloppy game, with old Glenn Liebhardt showing a return to the Iron Man form that made him in vincible once upon a time. Conzel- man nuffersd a relapse In the sixth, but weathered it bravely, the hurl ing honors being about even. SOUTHERN LEAQUI. Garnet Tuesday.

For one thing, the date will be the latest ever set for a tennis tourna ment In Atlanta. That idea itself appears an excel lent one. The weather conditions at that time should be superb. The Southern League baseball season will jus* have closed, and those tennis fanciers who also love the national pastime will not have to divide their esteem, but can turn their whole at tention to the new attraction. Carleton Y. Smith is at the head of the movement to bring the Cot ton States tourney here. It having been formerly held in Montgomery where Lee Allen Brookes, of Bir mingham, won the last championship. Mr. Brookes will be here to defend his title against the winner of the tournament in singles, who is re quired to challenge the title holder by the term* of the tournament. EMPIRE STATE LEAGUE.

Jackson Wants to Join Dixie League JACKSON, MISS., Aug 26.—Rep resentatives of the Jackson baseball enthusiasts will bo sent to Memphis within the next few days for the purpose of opening negotiations to secure a franchise for this city in the proposed new Dixie League. Thus far. Jackson has not been invited to join the new organization, but the promoters of the game are confident that the Capital City could play ball in a Class A organization, and maintain a team on a paying basis. If the circuit as now planned is carried out, Jackson would break the jump between the larger cities, and thus save the league considerable mileage. While the past season in the Cot ton States League was not a success financially, the local promoters of the game have long since learned not to expect to make any money out of a franchise. In other words, they regard baseball as a luxury and cheerfully put up for the deficit at the end of each season. Bulldog Destroys So. League Pennant Games Tuesday. Valdosta at Thomasville. Brunswick at Waycroaa. Cord el e at Amerious. Standing of ths Clubs. LITTLE ROCK.

President Kavanuugh declared to-day that he did not think the second divi sion clubs would again contribute to ward purchasing something that they had no chance to win. and a« the league rules prevent a club from purchasing its own pennant, it seems outte likely that the Southern League leader will go pennantleas this season.

Two players may have had a four on a certain hole; the newspapers duly chronicle the fact and on the face of the returns the playing seems equal, yet the actual playing varied \ widely in skill. For instance: A drove a beauty and pitched his second nicely on the green. B sliced to tall grass to right; played a poor shot Just out; pulled a half-topped half-iron to the left-hand edge of the green and holed out, while A missed nis putts by a hair’s i breadth.
