TO PLAY BALL AGAIN.
mcCIoskey Eager For the Fray With
the Pelicans.

the Pel1canS.
The base ball fans will be happy again
today. 1t is safe to say they will not be
disappointed in the appearance of
NrcCloskey's contingent, which shows no
Sims of the conflicts it has recently gone
through
The boys were at the park yesterday
and spent an hour in practicing, and
their admirers will be glad to know that
they have not lost any of their ability.
Thev catch the ball with as much accu-
racy and WELD the stick with as much
mower as they did before their trip, and,
with a square deal and some encourage
Trent from the home people, they will
soon be on the winning road again.
Kid Peoples is himself once more. His
nlaving at short to-day will renew the
Tigor of the home team.
Jantzen has completely recovered from
the effects of the assault upon him by
Little York"
Hin. Savannah's new twirler, will be
In the box to-day and good results are ex-
nected. Hill pitched good ball for the
Macon team, but had poor support, other
wise he would have had more games to
his credit.
Tub WEIGH has not returned from ST.
Louis. where ne went to visit the bedside
of his sick sister, who is not expected to
live His many friends hope for her
rapid recovery and Tubs early return
Old Reliable Pepper will hold down first
base during Tubs absence. In the mean
time McCloskey is negotiating for good
man for the place in case Tubs absence
should be prolonged.
The rest of the team will show up in
their usual form, and Count Campau may
count on defeats.
The Coast Line railroad will run cars to
4 Ill III l.
string to attend the games. This puts
the visitors in close proximity to the
park, although not as close as by the
Electrici Railway Company. The rate of
cents for the round trip, however, will,
it is presumed, have a tendency to make
the route popular. Capt. Johnston was
not prepared to give any information yes
terday as to the schedule to be run, but
said the line will handle all patrons with
dispatch. President Collins, of the Elec-
trio railway, says he will have enough
cars to handle the crowd, and all patrons
will be afforded the usual good service
which the line has rendered in the past
The fare over the Electric railway will
be unchanged.
President Miller has decided that it
will be more practicable for the manage
ment, as well as be more eXpedient in
settling with visiting teams, that all
tickets to the park be sold at the park
entrance This new rule will go into
effect to-day. Ample accommodations
will be provided for the sale of tickets,
and no one will be inconvenienced by the
change. No seats will be reserved In the
future. The opera chairs will be sold at
the usual advance charge of 10
cents. This change was brought
about by the indiscriminate manner
in which seats were taken possession of.
Parties holding coupons for seats would
in many cases upon arriving at the park
find their seats occupied by some one
holding no coupon, and the management
on several occasions experienced consid-
cradle difficulty in ousting the intruders
and in many instances the usher was met
with a defiant refusal
Manager McCIoskey was seen last night
In mis- usual retiring way ne said that his
team was all right. Give US a show, " he
said, for we did not get it away from
home. If we had been treated away from
home as the visiting team is treated here
our record would have been much better. 81
The New Orleans team arrived last
night The two teams will play as fol
