Editor Morning Ne,oS: The Savannah
people are not afraid for their club to
meet the Atlantss on equal terms any
where. In fact, We are just spelling for
such a meeting, and feel satisfied we can
do them up.
Savannah owes Atlanta three games .
Atlanta owes Savannah two deferred
games. Let Savannah arrange to play
one game in Atlanta under an acceptable
umpire. Each club will tnen owe the
other two games, and it will, therefore,

The gross earnings OF the Indian railways
for the year ended March 81 were 1857, 7S9,-
$40 and the working expenses were $43,-
l52,SI0, or only 1927 per cent, which 10
lower rate of expenses than most OF our

largely owned by the imperial govern
ment or by the native States, and the
country Is heavily taxed to pay interest

A Word About Base Ball.

Base ball is a good thing in its wav. 1t
is healthy sort of an amusement, and as
long as it is kept out of the hands OF those
who would like to use it in an improper
way for making money there can be no
particular objection to it. But even
healthy and harmless amusement NAV
not be without its drawbacks. Too much
of it may he demOralizing, and there are
indications that we are having too much
base ball tor the good of Young men and
boys who haven't either the money or the
time to enable them to crafty their ap
probation of the game.
Employers IN many cases find it diff
cult to get their employees to give proper
attention to their duties. The minds of
youths especially are so wholly taken up
with base ball matters that their services
in many cases are almost valueless.
Neglect OF duty is not the whole of the
decentralization that is noticeable Young
men who have small incomes are often
forced to make debts, and to put off pay
ing overdue bills, in order to meet the
base ball demand upon their purses. OF
course this demand is not heavy in the
estimation of those who have well-flled
purses, but there are many, very many
among those who make it a point to wit
ness every game who frequently find
some difficulty in getting the necessary
quarter of a dollar admission fee.
We haven't anything to say against the
game, or the way that it is conducted,
but people who think about such things
can hardly fail to see that base ball
players in three or four months can earn
more than the best teachers in the public
schools, more than college professor 8 and
even more than the average professional
man in a year. Too many Of the boy
and young men Of the country have
their attention drawn away from the oc-
equations IN which they are earning a
bare living and directed towards the
career OF a base ball player. OF course.
there is only limited demand for good
| players and hundreds of young men who
are neglecting their duties for base ball
are only preparing themse Ives for an idle
and proitless life.

The south Congratulated.

The Philadelphia Times notices with
qualification that the industrial growth Of
the South is not being hindered by strikes,
lockOuts and other indications of con-
fliet between capital aud labor. Within
the last few years the South has made
great progress and has added many mil
lions Of dollars to her wealth. Generally
there has been, and still is, contentment
among all classes OF people. Doubtless,
labor is being fairly compensated and
capital is earning fair interest.
There have been a few indications of
dissatisfaction. btN they have not been
sufficiently serious to attract much at
tention. The earnings of wage-work
in the South are, perhaps, about equal to
those @. the wage-workers in the North,
but the cost ofliving is, probably, not
quite so great in the South as in the
North The advantage, therefore, is on
the side Of The Southern wage workers.
OF course trouble is more liable to Oc-
cur between labor and tpital in thickly
than in thinly populated localities, be-
cause the competition among ware
workers is greater, and competition tends
10 Teuuce wages. mere is also greater
competition among railroads and all sorts
of industrial enterprises in the North
than in the South, and the greater the
competition among the wage-payers is
the less 10 their ability to pay fair wages.
Although at present the South has no
reason to apprehend labor troubles of any
magnitude in the near future, the time
will come, doubtless, unless some salts
factory method of settling such troubles
is agreed upon, when strikes, boycotts
and lockouts will be as common here as
in the North. New railroads are being
built, new factories erected, and the
opening OF coala and iron mines is going
forward rapidly. These things, of course,
mean a rapid increase in the wage-earn-
ing population.
However, there is no occasion for an
tlcipating trouble that may be averted
The strikes IN different parts OF the coun-
try this spring, and the losses they have
entailed by interTupting business, have
shown so forcibly the necessity for the
adoption Of some method for settling the
differences that are constantly arising be-
tween capital and labor that it is not i'm
probable that a methO will be found.

School BOY DAYS.

there was no fve-hour system in the
schools, just as there was no eight-hour
agitation in the workshop or on the

then.
The roll was called at 8 O'Clock a. m,

come three or four miles afoOt, or on a
frisky colt or pensioned veteran plOw-
horse. Everyone was required to be IN
his seat to answer to his name, and if the

pretense. to repeat verse from the b BILE.
At 10 O'Clock there was the "big recess"
just long enough for game of bull-pen or
shiny. Then at noon, nOminally, the
dinner recess was in order, but usually
the instructor would get very
much interested In lecture or
learned exposition of some abstruse
ubject about that time, and keep the
larger boys and girls, who, invariably,
were greatly bored, a halt hour or so
longer. 1.-TWO O'Clock the hand bell was
rung at the back window, just at the
right time to cut on deer-chase (modern
hare and hounds), or to interrupt hall

hour and a half more OF study
