Man*o«^ alonzo richardson & co., PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS AND AUDITORS Empire Building. Bell Phone, Main 858. 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.

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.

The ••Rube” was somewhat dismayed when the Pelicans kept on bat ting after he had been substituted for Har ley yesterday. Unless he again eats four heaping plates of river shrimp, though, he will probably give's good nccount of him self this afternoon. The “Robe" Is no uloueh, nnd 1t may be a pretty pitchers’ Imttle between bln* and Moxle Mannet this afternoon. ' It’s too Imd that this Is not la dles' day. Under such circumstances, with Moxle pitching, there would be absolutely no chance for Atlanta.—New Orleans Times-Democrat. Niles wns the only Raven to make two hit*—Kt. Louis Post-Dispatch.

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 fielder or an outfielder either. At present 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 tho third Cotton States Leaguer that the Barons hare secured for next year.—Bir mingham Age-Herald.

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.— Memphis News-ficlmltsr.

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.
