ihis spring? Well, maybe. It all de
i pends. At any rate local fans will
!know by Sunday.
A letter was received by the M. &
M. Association, referring to the Au
gusta Baseball Association, from Pres
ident W. T. McCullough, of the Pitts
burg Federal League team, stating
that he would like to engage the local
park for spring practice, for his ‘'set
of outlaws.”
Considerable doubt is aroused In
the minds of local baseball men as to
whether tt would be against the laws
of organised baseball to release the
grounds to a Federal League club.
The matter is under consideration and
President E. G. Kalbfleisch of the
local club stated that he would write
Mr. McCullough Saturday his decision
as to whether the grounds would be
released or not.
A telegram has been sent to Secre
’ tary Farrell of the National Commis
sion asking his advice, on this subject
and his answer will undobutedly bo
received in Augusta tomorrow.
The local club is also negotiating
with New York and Washington of
the American League to get either
team to train here. An answer is also
expected from either of these teams
by Saturday.
Boston, of tha National League,
which trained here last spring, will
train at. Macon for the 1915 season.

mu BY CAPTAIN
J. BICE SMITH
Lecture at the Tubman For the
Benefit of the Associated
Charities Was Heard Last
Night. Miss Margaret Battle
Sang.
("npt J. Rice Smith's lecture at the
Tubman last night was well attended
in spite of the cold weather and fur
nished an evening of unalloyed pleas
ure to the representative audience
there gathered. A lmt quite full of
money was collected for the Associat
ed Charities at the door as the en
thusiastic crowd passed out, amount
ing to about $l5O. including pledges.
The program opened and closed
with a male quartet under the leader
ship of Mr. John Haines, who sang
very enjoyably the famous setting of
•'Prink ot Me Only With Thine Eyes*’
and "Maryland. My Maryland."
Miss Margaret Battle gave two num
bers, "Mayfields and Butterflies” bv
Hook, and Pel Rtego's "Mary of Al
lendale." The audience refused to be
quiet until they were given an encore
a charming little humorous ballad!
Miss Battle ably accompanied bv Miss
Kllen Hickman, was in splendid voice
and never sang better, to the utter de
light of a most sympathetic audience.
Her lovely voice goes on improving
year by year, with constant work and
training, and each winter her num
berless admirers are astounded with
new beauties. For Miss Battle is a
tireless worker and a true musician
and, furthermore, has almost Infinite
possibilities to work with. Her enun
ciation is very nearly perfect and It Is
only an occasional syllable which the
audience does not catch as clearly as
though the words were easily and nat
urally spoken. This, by the wav. Is a
quality which Is almost never found
outside the & eatest singers.
Capt .1 Kice Smith was introduced
by Mr. S A. Fortson, president of the
Associated Charities, and spoke dur
ing perhaps three-quarters of an hour
in his own inimitable fashion on the
Service."
