Savannah, Ga., Sept 3.—The spirit* mar
ket opened Inst Monday at 61%c, the price
being maintained until Wednesday’* close,
which wa* He lower. Saturday there wa* a
decline of ftc, while In the lnte trading
the best bid was at 60%c. Some factors de
clined to sell at the reduction. The '
deucy Is to seek a lower level, thc.„*n.
prices will not likely go below 60c. Prices

did not get a chance for expression

The rosin market worked lower daring

much figure ns would have been the cas*

ATLANTA, GEORGIA.
Monday morning from Its last road trip
of the year, and opens in a Labor day
double-header against the Memphis team.
Tho games Inaugurate the final stay at
home of the Crackers and mark the begin
nlng of the end of the Southern Leugue
season In Atlanta.
The trip which ended this morning hn*
been one of the most remarkable of the
year, and one of the most successful, in
spite of certain unfortunate Incidents In
the Crescent City—the home of the robber
ball and other things too . numerous. aud
too sultry to mention.
Any team which can take three out of
four games from Memphis, three out of
four from Little Rock and three out of
four from Shreveport deserve honorable
mention nnd d sent or two in tho Hall of
Fame.
The trip has been played under nil kinds
of handicaps. Archer was oat of the game
part of tho time. Bo was Morse. Hoff
man, after being kicked around from one
position to another, was finally Injured
and nearly put out of business. Childs
proved to be In uo condition to work, nnd
had to be shipped homo when pitchers
were especially needed. Evers wns forced
to play the game In an unfamiliar posi
tion. Bid Smith had to stand for a switch
from the catcher’! box to sohrtstop, and
after a very short but decidedly eventful
experience there, was landed on third base.
Take It altogether, the team went up against
It pretty strong, and the players acquitted
themselves like diamond heroes.
Now that the team Is back at home again,
some good baseball may 1»e looked for.
Though not In the best trim, the Crackers
can always l>e counted on to play great
hall at Piedmont park, and the men on
the team are going to make a first-class
stagger st getting second place cinched.
Thnt 61.099 looks pretty good to them,
and they are after the money and the
credit as well.
Every player on the team deserves n
world of praise for the game he put up
while the team was making the Inst swing
around the much-dreaded wcatern cud of
Archer hns done wonderful work be
hind the bat. IBs catching has been high-
class, nnd his stick work timely. The
pitchers have all shown fine form. Hughes
bus beou the same old steady Tom, who
hns been winning gnrnes for Atlanta all
the season with hi* fancy curves, great
control and fine bend-work. Zeller has
pitched as good ball os he has shown at
any time this sensou.
He seems to have retslnod til of his
early knack, and has been “puttin’ ’em
over nnd rankin' ’em hit,’’ which Is the
secret of any pitcher’s sticcess. Sparks
hns done first-class work. In Memphis,
over-engnrnesa to win cost him a game,
and In Shreveport the fact that he started
work before he wos well warmed up re
sulted in his being knocked out of the
Ih>x. The same afternoon, though, he
came back In the second game of the dou
ble-header and allowed Shreveport only a
•Ingle hit—and that one after an error had
been made on an on ay fly, which should
have retired the side. Harley has been
In rare form, except In that unfortunate
first game In New Orleans, and that day
his support was enough to unnerve a
Matheweon or a McOlnnlty,
Fox’e work hae been the same steady
kind which has put him In a class altogeth
er by himself among the first hnsemen of
the league, and the same may be said of
Jordan. Morse did good work aa long as
he stuck to the team, and Hoffman showed
unexpectedly good form, both at short
nnd third—such good form. In fact, that
many fans who saw him play believe that
Idly Smith made a mistake In not having
him with the team all the eeasoii. Sid
Smith did nice wdrk behind the bat and
at third, nnd Crozler nnd Winters havo
played their dsunl faultless game In the
field. Next to Hoffman, Evers proved the
surprise of the trip. Ills *work In center
field hns been a revelation, and he hat
been hitting the bell right on the trade
mark.
Altogether, the players have done work
which hae been gilt-edged, and Atlanta
has Just cause to be proud of her baseball
team.
BOB SPADE
IS SECURED
Bob Spade, the star pitcher of the Macon
team, will probably join the Atlanta team
Tuesday and pitch his turn during the rest
of the season.' He wns last year regarded
tho premier twlrler of that organization, be
ing drafted by the St. Louis Americans. He
was turned back, however, without a try-
out, and has this yesr again done great
work.
SOUTHERN BELL WINS SERIES.
Special to The Georgian.
Royston, Gn„ Sept. 3.—The Royaton
Rompers went down before the strong ag
gregation corralled by the Southern Bell
Telephone and Telegraph Company toam in
the third game of the series Saturday by
the score of 6 to 5. It was a snappy con
test, and with the exception of two In
nlngt, there was little doing In the scoring
line, four runs being made by Royaton In
the first tuning and fire by the Southern
Bell crowd In the third Inning. Two er
rors, one base on balls, a hit batter, cou
pled with three opportune hits off Brown,
scored the five runs.
Both pitcher* wore In fine form, all hough
Brown had pitched and won the first game
of the series, and deserved by bis pitching
to have won Saturday. The batteries were
Brown and Colle, and Mangum and J. La-
fltte.
This wluds up the season here, and It
has been a very good one for Royston,
as they won a good majority of the games
played and went up against some of the
strongest amateurs In this section. The
playing was done mostly by home boys,
very few hired men being used. The team
hns been fortunate In hnrlng Conch Stouch
with them for about two months to de
velop the material, nnd well did he show
his ability. Some of the players had
never played In n match game before this
year, but were brought out, and played
fine ball. The Bell team played nlco ball,
and are a gentlemanly set of men.
ANN18TON CLOSES 8EA80N.
Special to The Georgian.
Anniston, Ain., Sept. L-After tlelng Pell
City for the championship of Alabama, the
Anniston baseball club has disbanded for
the’season. The team has had a most suc
cessful year—In fact, the moat successful
year In Its history. Out of seventeen games
played, the team hns won twelve, lost four
and tied one, getting a percentage of .756.
The team hns been up against some of
le fastest amateur team* In the South,
among them the State Mutuals of Rome,
Qa„ Pell City nnd Bessemer. Anniston has
lost but one series this year, and that to
strong Rome aggregation, said to be
fastest team In Georgia. Opposing
teams have twice been shut out this year.
team wns composed entirely of local
men with no hired player on the line -up.
BASEBALL GOSSIP
Thers wns probably no more disappointed
person yesterday when the Pelicans threw
their batting fit than Percy II. Wh|tlug.
who Is here with the Atlanta team ns a
representative of The Atlanta Georgian.
Mr. Whiting said that It was hard to lose
to New Orleans under any circumstances,
but to lose s game after It bad apparently
been won woa too much. lie remained
loyal to hla team to the very last, though,
nnd finally aahl he would lie satisfied If the
Georgia crowd took the Inst two games.—
New Orleans Times-Democrat.
Hughes, who pitched yesterday, rate* as
the best man in the Atlanta list, tie hns a
good baseball head and a very good deliv
ery. and should rate up high with a hitting
team behind hint. It he bad been up
against the same handicap the local pitch
ers have struggled with then be could have
been classed on hts real merits. The Peli
can pitchers have lost many and many a
game In which they have allowed four nnd
five hits, simply liecanse the team behind
them cannot list.—New Orleans Picayune.

of money to have to pay for a cuss word.—
Montgomery Times.
When s player Is fined by a manager
for misconduct, It Is nothing to put In
the papers. The writers are not blamed,
but It Is the fault of the manager. Such
action does more harm than good,
makes the player sore, which, of course,
does the club uo good.—Birmingham News.
Woodruff, a nephew of Harry Vaughn,
who hns been one of the best bitters In
tha Cotton States League this year, was
bought yesterday by Birmingham and will
report next year. Exactly where he will
be played ts not known, ns he Is an In

he Is playing In left field for Baton Rouge
and has been stinging the ball at a clip
totter than .390, nnd fielding well. He
Is fast In tho field ami on tho bases, as
well as being a good hitter. This makes

The Babblers have not given np all hope
of the pennant. Those three games taken
from the Bnrons have pulled the leaders
down a peg. If neither club gains or loses
until Memphis and Birmingham book up
In Baronville, the series of five games
there will corns pretty near telling the
tale. It will take four out of five, though,
to pall the Barons from their perch.—

At th* Cailno.
Much Intereat 1* being ahown In the
Casino bill for the week that com
mence* Monday night, at the Ponce
DeLeon amusement resort.
It ha* been much In evidence that a
great many local theater-goers care a
whole lot for good vaudeville, and that
the Casino Is one of the real popular
places of entertainment. And now with
an exceptionally good strong, original
and n«w bill of vaudeville, and the
theater as comfortable os It was In
tended to be In this kind of weather
season, there Is nothing wonderful
about the Intereat that la being so
prominently evidenced.
Bell 'phone 236 North ha* been In
demand. This le the 'phone at Ponce
DeLeon park, over which a great many
orders for seat* have been taken, and
that will become, a decidedly popular
number wjthln ji short time. The ar
rangement work* splendidly. A thea
ter-goer simply plnce* an order for
■eat* and then calls for the reserva
tion* nt the Casino box office at the
time of the performance, and such a
plan can't be Improved upon.
The blit for tho week I* of excep
tional Interest. It I* well made and
there Is much variety. There are good
comedians, pretty girts, new Ideas In
vaudsvtlte, and much that I* novel.
The bill Is not all nnknown locally and
the word of the knowing ones predicts
a wonderful 'success.

lotte Coates Is the star, will offer a

ed with a. good deal of Interest. By
request a return engagement of John
ny Johnson and Bob Harty will mark a
feature point. These popular members
nt th* Walls, Dunne and Harlan forcea
■cored a delightful hit sort* weeks ago,
and before they return East, after vis
iting all ths Wells theaters in th*
South, the general manager has direct
ed that they pay Atlanta another call,
and nothing coutd please the locals
better.
Mildred Flora, whoae annual visit* to
Atlanta has been one of the feature, of
the season, will occupy a special place
