best to start in the race

omen of victorious opening.
Manager Lewis, who is also the field
captain and first baseman of the visitors.
says the recent deluge inteTfered with the
practice of his club, but 1t is we'll under

handed.
In sporting circles Savannah is the ia
vOrite, many OF the clubs more enthusi-
astic admirers even predicting that she
will win four straights. AS
well posted admirer of the
sport said last night: Savannah should
bend every energy to getting good start
early in the season, and getting as far in
the van of ali her rivals as possible. 1t
will not only encourage and enable her to
play better ball, but handicap other clubs
with the encouragement incident to an
uphill fight"
The other opening games of the league
season TO be played to-day are as follows:
At Observation-Disclosures vs.. Atlanta.
At Acknowledgements VS.. Nashville.

share OF favorable consideration, which
is by no means asurprse to us. as we
have literally spread ourselves this sea-
son in presenting as stylish a lot OF cloth

merchant tailor. Besides, we claim and rea-
sonably too, that between ready made lwhen

vast advantage in favor Of the read y-made. rs
the buyer knows when selecting a ready made

a piece OF cloth may look on the tailor's table,
nine times out of ten it will disappoint all ex-

SAVANNAH, April 13.-EditOr MOrniuq
Nelos: A writer signing himself ''Trom-
bone," in Mondays NEWS suggests the
Offering Of prize of $500 for grand mil
itary band contest. He thinks that it
would be an important addition to the
Centennial exercises to have such a con-
test, and that the amount necessary for
such purpose could easily be raised
among the lovers of music in Savannah.
Trombone" is right In his suggestion:
and every one who was present at the
charming band contests in MOBILE and
New Orleans last May, at the prize drills
in those cities, will readily admit that
this feature of the drills was as much, if
not more, appreciated by the large crowds
present as any other. Who that heard
those splendid bands in Mobile and
New Orleans-the Dubuque Drum Corps.
the Deborah Drum Corps, the
EldOra First Regiment band and the
Iowa State University band, fully 10
pieces, all under the leadership of Prof.
McCOsh--can ever forget "the harmony OF
sweet sounds" which they evolved from
their instruments, and which did sOmuch
to give tone and eclat to the entire Occa-
sions. and to throw a mellOwing influence
over the events, which might accord to
them a green spot in the memory? 1t
will certainly be an oversight if no in
ducement be offered to celebrated bands
like these to come here and lend zest to
the occasion, which they are sOpeculiarly
and eminently fitted to do.

MISS FOLSOM DECLINES.

From the tenor of the dispa Itch, yes
terday, dated Buffalo, n. Y, it is only
too evident that some thoughtless per-
son had mailed Miss Frances Folsom
a copy of the EAGLES editorial on
how 10 raise Democratic postmasters.
Our article was written solely in the
interest OF the administration, and in
the absence of any thought of shock
ing Miss Folsom, and not with any
special reference to her peculiarly en-
barrasing relations with the man who
has notoriously monkcyed with that
p.erodactyl, the sexiess mugwump.
We still hope that there is some mis-
take and that the air of dcsuetude
which hangs over the newly fitted up
bridal chamber at the White House
may yet be dispellcd by the loving
presence of Miss Folsom, for if the
present administration needs any one
thing more than another it is course
of sound curtain lectures, and the
soothing influence of an occasional
lullaby Of a rcsoiute motber-in law.
The EAGLE therefore makes haste to
apologize for its suggestions of a
possible cradle and accompanying
soothing syrup.

The COMING STORMS.

Prof. W T. Foster in the Leavenwor;h Times.
A heavy storm period will prevail
from May 2Sd to 3lst, which will be
the beginning of the greatest storm
period Of this great storm year OF
1886. These last days of may will not
give us very destructive storms but
much greater than those of 18th to
10Th.
Those forecasts are made for all of
the United States east of the Rocky
mountains, but the storms will be
noted more for their force than their
size and many places will not be
reached bv them
AS this will be period of general
storms, we will not try at this time
10 locate them, except they will he
near line drawn north and south
through Leavenworth within twenty
four hours of shutdown on oath and
30th. Wherever these storms are on
10Th. 9th and 2sth of May, there they
will spend their principal force.
After May 81 the weather will again
become quiet in this longitude, but in
a few days the battle of the elements
will be renewed and during the month
of June will occur five Of these storm
periods.

Mr.. Blaine 81 CD says our govern
ment should demand of Great Britain
an agreem INT that the treaty of 1873,
by which the United States became
independent, shall be regarded as suf-
ficient for the guidance of all persons
concerned as to the fishery dispute.
The treaty gave the United States the
same rights and privileges as regards
the fisheries that the residents of the
colonies enjoyed prior to the rcvolu-
tIonary war. These rights enabled
the citizens of the United States to
fish wherever they chose on the coast
of the provinces of New Brunswick,
Nova Scotia and Newfoundland.

an alliance with Russia at the expense of
England. Public opinion in Germany SYM
pathizes with Prince Alexander i'll his mis-
