AUGUSTA VS. THE
“WOLVES” YESTERDAY
Manager Brouthers of the
Local Sallie Team Well Satis
fied With Practice Received
in Game.
Yesterday's baseball game between the
local Sallie team and the champions of
the City League of last year, turned
out to be quite interesting to the fans
as well as to the players. The “Wolves
were defeated by the score of nine to
two.
This game was not without its sen
sations babrie. the Augusta team's
first baseman, caused great comment
when he sensationally averted being
trapped while attempting to come in
home. The only bad part of the game
was when Broughton was accidentally
hit in the back of the head with the
sphere and rendered helpless for a few
minutes.
The batteries for the “Woilves” were
as follows: Rainey, Kahrs and Muller as
the pitchers, and Wolf as the backstop
For the Augusta club Bruner and Stor.e

Wheat behind the bat.
Manager Brouthers was fairly well
sttisfied with the practice* gained from
the "Wolves" in yesterday's game and
stated that he is now ready to go after
the scalp of Manager Hamilton's Com
ers (Columbia), who will play Augusta
three straight games, starting Monday
snd ending Wednesday.

CLEAR DECKS IN
KILLJFER CASE
AIE Ready For Firdt Legal Bat
tle Between Federal League
and Organized Ball.
Grand Rapids, Mich.—Decks were
cleared in federal court here today for
the first real legal battle between or
ganized baseball and the Federal lea
gue William F. Killifer, catcher, who
began his baseball career with Michigan
teams and worked ills way to the ma
jors, was tile storm center. The ques
tion before the court is whether Killifer
is the property of the Chicago Federate
or belongs lo the Philadelphia Nationals.
Last season Killifer was with Phil
adelphia. During the past winter he
signed a Federal League contract; then
he renounced the Independent organiza
tion and signed a new contract with III*
Philadelphia <lub. The Federal League
started injunction proceedings to re
strain Killifer from playing with Phil
adelphia The petition also asks that
Kllifer be declared tho property of tho
Chicago Federals.
The reserve clause, sometimes termed
the bulwark of organised baseball, may
not he attacked by the attorneys for the
petitioning club although officials of ihe
Federal league have held the cluuse to
be illegal.
THE CASE OF JENNIE BRICE

And Still the Mystery Grows Deeper
ATTRACTIVE TAFFETAS -
AND AGAIN TAFFETAS
Skirts Continue Narrow at tho
Heels Despite Pleats and Ac
centuated Drapery. Season
able Material for Little Folks.
New York.— Seasons are no longer
divided; now winter merges Into
spring and spring Into summer before
we realize that the change lias taken
place. We hasten to catch up, won
dering how it is possible we could have
been caught napping when the stores
are showing such a various array
are showing such a various array of
week.
The shops, realizing the insistent
demand for taffeta, hate availed them
selves of llie opportunity of supplying
it in all Its phases, widths and quali
ties. The demand has hern so great
that even America has forced Ihe rec
ognition of France tty the fine quality
of the American taffeta, and many of
the leuding French couturiers have
bought large quantities from our man
ufacturers, creating an entirely new
stale of affairs. ITp to a very recent
time the French and Italian mills have
excelled us by far.
Moire taffeta Is even more attractive
than flic plain-fabric, lor it lias an ad
ditional sheen which is alluring. An
attractive feature of taffeta frocks is
that they really need lint very little
trimming. Except for a little lare at
Ihe neck, many of the prettiest of tho
Parisian frocks depend entirely upon
the cut and draping.
Among Ihe new fabrics, which in
clude cotton duvetyne, novelty eponge
and golflne, there i« another material
closely allied to the last-mentioned
material. It is called golf cord. It
has a crepe background, with a chenile
cord woven so that It stands up on
Hie goods as though it might have
been put on after the material has
been woven Tho gown which 1 chose
for my first illustration is developed
in this charming matorlul in Japanese
blue. The surplice waist fronts have
long ends attached which tie in the
hark at a high or low line, according to
line most becoming. A dainty frill
of organdy finishes tho nock. Tho
tunics of the skirt are edged with a
narrow hox-plrated frill of plain blue

bon. An example of Ihls method of
making a gown attractive Is shown In
my other Illustration, which shows a
■mart taupe serge bolero suit. The
short coat shows the blouse at the
waistline, and at the neck the collar
of the waist rolls out upon the collar
of purple-and-white checked silk. The
cuffs and wide sash girdle are also of
this same silk. The charming tri
corne which completes Ihls costume
is made of purple-and-whtte straw,
with black-and-white fancy feathers
standing up stiffly at each indentation.
A strife goes on between the pleated
skirt and the draped skirt. At present
the drapery seems to have scored the
greatest number of points They are
divided into two types; one has I lie
wide drapery at the hips, while the
other shows the drapery in the back
which simulates the bustle.
The skirts continue In both cases
narrow at the ankles, and the only
plain ones are those of the tailored va
riety. Bleated skirls are being seen,
especially below tunics and panniers.
They are so closely knife or accordion
pleated Unit they ding tightly and do
not chungu the silhouette, but they
have the advantage over the other
tight skirts in that they yield graceful
ly to every step.
The waistline Is a feature of great
Importance For dresses It Is more
often seen normal or high, but on coats
It. Is apt to continue low, with broad
belts. Each dressmaker of great repu
tation strives to establish her own apr
ticular Idea. For Instance, l'a<iuln uses
a high waistline -and It is a line, never
by any chance can It lie called any
thing else while Cherult, another
French dressmaker of International
reuptatlon, hides the waistline under
a surplice girdle or a narrow belt of
the same material as the gown. Pre
met. favors the loose wulst and Call'd
the extremely long-waieted moyen-age
frocks.
With the breath of spring in the air
thoughts of mothers are naturally
turning toward the >ty garments
for the younger gens*, anon. Shops are
showing the usual dispay of si ring
fabrles, and among them Is golflne,
which I have spoken of before. It
was created by that greatest of weav
ers Rodler, who has given %> the fash
ionable world such fabrics as velour de
laine, ratine, ami that unusually
charming fabric duvetyne, which cap
tured Paris and then America by its
soft beauty If not by Its serviceability.
Golflne will probably lie used a great
deal this season for older people, and
as a matter of course for children. It
resembles cotton corduroy. There are
also numerous weaves of liner; which
hold a strong place in young people's
wardrobes, where serviceability as
well as beauty is a consideration. Ma
terials are being used which have a
THREE
daintt flowered design resembling the
Dolly Yartlon materials of our mother's
day. when ihe same long-shouldered
effect was so popular night hero I
must not forget to say that at a re

tablished dressmaking firm, panta
lettes were n feature!

Hheer linen Is a very dainty matorlnl

Stork Comes to Woman
on Macon Street at
Early Hour in A. M.
Mscon, G».—lnstances where new

tions and the like, are numerous, but
for one to lie born on the sidewalk
of a thonsighfare In the busiest por
tion of a city well, that is another
matter, to say the least, but that Is
what happened In Macon yesterday.
Three employes of the local morn

ft o'clock. On Cotton avenue. Just
below the city hall, they were accost
ed by a young woman who appeared
to be In distress. Hhe Inquired the
way to a hotel, but before she could
tie given the directions swooned on
the sidewalk and before the startled
young men realized what was hap
pening the crloe of a new-born In
fant became audible.
The three men. all of whom are
married, administered to the woman,
then called an ambulance and sent her
to the hospital. At the hospital the
young woman steadfastly refused to
give her name, suying slio would die
first.
It was learned from other sourcei
that the young woman does not live lr.
