IN THE BASE BALL WORLD.
Gossip Regarding the approaching
SeasOn-PIea for Sober Players.

SeasOn-Plea for Sober PIeyers.
The Nashville Union voices the senti-
ment OF every one Interested in base
ball in the South when it says: 1--WE
hope to see the prohibition idea strictly
enforced in the Southern League next sea-
son. Managers in selecting players
should take good care to see that drunk
ards and blackguards are given wide
berth. Men who cannot keep liquor out
OF their hides on or off the ball Held are
no more fit to play ball than Judge
would be to decide a case IL he were
drunk at the time of giving his decision.
Men who spend their time in pursuing the
flowing bowl or keeping late hours, and
who have been kicked out OF other clubs
for such practices, should receive no
consideration at the hands OF southern
League managers. Meu who are less
skillfuI, but who keep sober and behave
themselves at all times, are much to De
preferred to beer-guzZleTs and roWdles,
though they be ever so efficient. We are
aware of several instances last season
where well-knOwn players were carried
home in a beastly drunken condition in
the early morning, when they were July
cOgnizant OF the fact that they were
booked to play bah in the afternoon. Let
this class of men be avoided next season,
and though young and inexperienced
players may make up the majority OF our
teams, we will be treated to earnest, con-
scientIOuS work.

"a Fortune Without Lottery Ticket


There was report that Mr.. Jonas Williams,
living in the city, came to his fortune by In-
vesting in lottery ticket, which number was
4O4, 100. 1t will no doubt surprise a great
many to learn that such is not the case. Cir
cumstances that surround Mr.. Williams good
luck in securing his fortune are entirely
different. Mr.. w. had been paying his atten-
ton to young widow VI no was worth con-
siderable amount of money.
She declined Mr.. w. owing to the clothing
and the old hat he wore. When the One
Price Clotniers, Appel & Schaul, announced
themselves to the public Mr.. w. thought he
would give them trial and bought him self a
fine 4-button GETAWAY suit, together with a
nice hat, shirts, ties, etc., ana again pre-
sented himself 10 the young widow, when he
was accepted at once.
So, young man, if you are in search of a for
tune call on Appel Il Schaul. the One Price
Clothiers, 1863 Congress street, aud buy OF
them one of their hne custom maue suits, in
any style desired, also some of their Nobby
Underwear, Shirts, Col ars, Hats, Ties, etc,
and perhaps you may have the same good
luck Mr.. Williams had.
